have paved streets at last and prepar

line of work, and why go elsewhere
to employ labor.

necessary to arrange 26 shut offs o
the water mains on the sidewalks, and
the tapping of mains is now being
done by George Meeks, E. Nealand
and L. Jackson, who have already
much of the work done..

the northern part of the city to the

people of this place will not be toler-

dust of summer as in previous years.

ENTERTAINMENT SUCCESS
CANBY, March 24. The entertain

lagh school students Wednesday eve
ning, assisted by outside talent,' was
one of the most enjoyable held by the

Oregon City high school faculty.
The large and apreciative audience
was generous with applause, and en
cores were responded to.
A. World Board of. Trade
... . x
-v A good idea os to the proper function of a league
or association of nations, can be had by considering it as
a , kind of world Chamber of Commerce.
A Chamber of Commerce does not undertake to
dictate the conduct of any private business. A mer
chant or manufacturer who joins such an organization,
retains the right to run his own business as he sees
fit. Otherwise he would not join the Chamber of
Commerce.
The league of nations covenant failed to .appeal
to this country because, rightly or wrongly, people be
lieved that as constituted, it would have the rights of
of control over this country.
If no general association of nations is formed, the
world will be in the position of a city that has no bus
iness men's organization. A world court, if such a
tribunal is established, can not perform the work needed,
any more than the courts in a city can perform the work
of a Chamber of Commerce. .
There needs to be in a community some associa
tion whose work it is to harmonize conflicting interests,
and plan programs of co-operative action. Cities that
have no such organization are torn with factions and
the lack of general co-operation keeps them stationery.
The world needs that kind of association. It
should not undertake to govern its members. ' Its
function should be to harmonize differences and to
plan methods of co-operation. Like a board of trade, it
needs to have regular meetings, and to have establish
ed bureaus that shall carry on continuous work where
the same is needed. It can accomplish a great step in
world progress, just as a good Chamber of Commerce
accomplishes wonders in promoting the development of
a city.
It can do a great deal to secure world peace ; first
by getting the nations in the habit of working co-operatively;
second, by suggesting measures of joint ac
tion against nations that threaten war.
When a man. reaches 50 he likes to fool himself
with the assurance that he has just begun to live.
