There Is a grave fear expressed that the publicity work of the Oregon City Commercial Club will be abandoned. It is certainly apparent that the real spirit of harmony does not exist In the governing body on the fourth floor of the Masonic Temple and that the idea of co-operation with Presi dent Randall is not uppermost. This Is a matter that the members of the Commercial Club should Im mediately make a fight for. Either we an" going forward, or we are going the other way, we are not going to stand still in this day and age and Progress will march past unless we are hospitable. If the reports that leak out of the executive chamber of the Board of Governors are correct, then that body should meet in the open club rooms, where the members can learn what is going on. The appointment of a new commit tee to take charge of the distribution of the funds subscribed for publicity work has been held up through the action of the Board of Governors of the Commercial Club in declining to confirm the committee named lat Tuesday night by Tom P. Randall, the new president of the club. Accord ingly Mr. Randall, who was treasurer of the former publicity committee, has, at the request of the Board of Governors, transferred the balance of the money on hand, amounting to J1192.S3. Mr. Randall Is expected to Insist upon the appointment of the men he wants for his publicity com mittee and while the names of the suggested committee have not been made public, it is understood that Attorney 0. D. Eby is to be the chair man. There seems to be a disposi tion on the part of the new Board of Governors to undervalue the work of the publicity department and this sentiment Is very generally deplored. President Randall, himself, who has been connected with the publicity work in Oregon City ever since the work was started, is a firm believer in the efficiency of advertising of this character. The high price of nearly everything that one eats Is producing an agita tion throughout the land. There Is no State, town or community In which the subject Is not felt and discussed. It may well be a matter of popular concern, for within the memory of an overwhelming majority of people now living, the cost of food stuffs to the consumer have well nigh doubled. It Is said and believed that the origi nal producer is getting but little more for the products of the farm, the truck i garden, the orchard, and the dairy has been recently published by the .. . ... .,., .' management telling the storv of the than he did years ago. arlous causes iHot prings ,n mos. ,n;erestjng are given or guessed for the Increas-, manner and glvlng complete informa ed cost to the consumer.

Agriculture says that there are too many grocers. Senator Dolliver says ', that too many men and women are liv- j ing in the cities, and all say that this ; country through extravagance and ; prosperity has encouraged high prices , and wastefulness until the means of; life are more difficult here than In those countries that we once referred to with pity and contempt as the "ef fete moiarchies." Is the pulpit obsolete? Some relig ionists hold that it Is. They insist that the diffusion of knowledge and ed ucation with libraries and books ac cessible to all have produced a laity that knows as much about theory, eter nal Interests, and the unknowable 3s docs the preacher. Church attendance is falling off. The age Is practical and critical. Oratory is no longer popular. Two-hour sermons or sermons half that length are no longer tolerated. Few audiences can be hel-i nwe than twenty minutes. This does n'it m;an that religion is dying out or that the virtues popularly known as Christian are becoming extinct. It simply means, that the old orrtr .fashion) changeth.

PASO ROBLES SPRINGS WOMEN AT THE VERGE OF DES PAIR ARE RESTORED TO FRESH HEALTH. The Hot Springs at Paso Robles. California, are beyond doubt the greatest natural active agency in America for the restoration of female health. Most women today are suffering silently pain, unhapptness and disap pointment because of their inability to cure themselves of woman s Ills They have drugged themselves aad have tried other means for relief, but are still hopelessly seeking health !n the same channels year after year. Paso Robles waters contain all that seems to be required by the system to regulate the delicate machine of wo man, while the perfect air, the beau tiful scenery and pleasaut surround- ings bring peace and quiet to the sensitive nerves of women so neces sary to her health. In the hotels and boarding houses one meets peoi le of all degrees, for these springs know no class, quality or station of life. Paso Robles gives health to all who seek its waters and its air. The bath houses are wonders of modern science and comfort. For weal, nervous, suffering women, no matter what condition of health they may be In, Paso Robles is a ref uge for certain health. Xo one. un less he or she be afflicted with tuber culosis or some unclean malady, is denied the use of the baths. Baths of all descriptions can be had sulphur, mud, vapor, hot, steam and cold while the drinking of the waters serves to bring relief for all manner of stomach, neurotic, kidney and other troubles. Paso Robles is not a dream of some far away Mecca where health awaits at the end of a costly journey, but in a spot within California where health may be had free for the asking and man and woman may be cured if they will but try.
