WORDS OF Mayor Cross, of Glad
WISDOM stone, has the interests of
his city at heart. This is a mere state
ment of fact. He does not believe in
running his community into debt, if
it can be avoided; but he believes
that the muncipal equipment should
not be stinted. Gladstone's credit) is
now excellent, she has sold her bonds
at a premium, and it is the aim of
her mayor and concil to keep things
in this happy condition. Therefore
it is of interest, in connection with
this, to tjhink for a moment of some
thing Mr. Cross said the other day
when a citizen of Gladstone urged up
on him the necessity of the purchase
of fire-fighting equipment.
"I am strongly inclined to believe
that the best protection against fire , able thought and emulation. Insur
is a modest insurance policy," said ance is designed to protect, people
Gladstone's mayor. "I have observed from loss, not to provide them with

worth almost two whole dollars has
been insured for $500 or more, and
successfully burned and the insurance
collected. Aside from recounting
these facts, the articles may have
planted evil seeds in the minds of ir
responsible folk.
The observation of Mr. Cross ap
plies not only to Gladstone, but to
all cities. It is worthy of consider-
The Superiority of ElectricToast
to the charred, or brittle, or soggy kind made in the
tedious c!d-fashioned way, is relatively the same as "the
superiority of grilled steak to fried steak.
For one-tenth of a cent a slice the General
Electric Radiant Toaster makes Perfect Toast faster
than you can czt it. It is Perfect Toast because the
radiant heat forces the necessary chemical change
in the bread. This insures delicious golden Toast that
fairly melts ia your mouth.

ance policy as a protection against
the red-tongued demon. In all prob
ability a chemical fire engine will be
purchased by the city, and will sere
to put out any fires that may be
discovered. But, if the mayor has
his way, greatest faith will be placed
in the modest insurance policy, and
in the natural care of the people of
Gladstone. That should be sufficient
until Gladstone is many times its
present size. -
A HUMBLE Public spirited citizens
SUGGESTION of the city, who own
and operate their own , automobiles,
are desirous of co-operating with the
police in the forthcomng crusade
against speeders. This is as it
should be. There are really but few
Oregon City folk who like to race
madly through the city streets, and
it is not believed that the officers
will captlure many citizens in their
forthcoming crusade.
However, all the trouble does not
lie in the city, nor can the "officers
control all the trouble. Much of it
centers about the crossing of the
county road and the Southern Pacific
main line. Some aufcoists seem to
look upon this crossing as an excell
ent place to try their skill with that
of engineers of the hurrying trains.
Sometimes the autoists show suffi
cient ability, and sometimes tpiey do
not. Sunday the Shasta Limited was
"stood on end" when the engineer
"dynamited" his train to permit an
over-enthusiastic autoist to skip
across tjhe rails before the cow-catcher
tore the spokes out of his wheels.
The Enterprise would humbly sug
gest that autoisits quit this playing
tag with trains on the crossings. Of
course, this paper would appreciate
the "story"' that would result were
some benzine-buggy to drape itself
over the front end of a locomotive at
this crossing but still there would
be drawbacks to such a news article.
It would be painful tp recount the
list Of dead and wounded, and The
Enterprise," for the good of the auto,
mobilists, is willing to forego the
pleasure of the story. The nerves of
the engineers should also be consid
ered.' They have enough to do with
out dodging autos. On the whole,
the practice of "beating trains to it"
is a poor one, and one that can. well
be discarded.
earl to Heart
Talks
By JAMES A. EDGERTOM
IN HIS NAME.
Is it possible to live the Christ life
in everyday affairs?
Is it possible to follow the spirit of
Christ's teachings in business and poli
tics, in the home and in the club?
If not, is the fault with his teachings
or with us?
Are they impractical, or are we yet
too crude. Ignorant and savage to ap
ply them?
Perhaps the hardest of his com
mands for men to obey 'is that con
cerning nonresistance. Yet have we
not progressed far. enough toward its
realization to conceive that in some
happier and more civilized age to come
it will be followed literally?
His name is stamped nil over our
I'ivilizatiou Why. then, dn we not con
form our lives to his pattern? Why
do jve not have the peace he prophe
sied? Why do we not practice the
healing he practiced and commanded
us to practice? - .
We have made great progress toward
the realization of his ideals and are
still making progress. Yet we have
had nineteen hundred years in which
to do it. Why is our advance so slow?
"Ye cannot serve God and Mammon."
What have we to say to that?
What has Wall street to say to it?
What has big business to say?
"Love thy neighbor as thyself."
Do we love our neighbors as our
selves? Do we realize that ah men
with whom we come in contact are at
that moment our neighbors? '
"Greater things than these shall ye
do." .
Are we doing greater things? Are
we even remotely approximating to
ward doing things as grent?
In a material way perhaps we are.
but he did not talk about material
things, but rather about moral and
spiritual things.
We go forward in his name, but if
we fail to do his commandments are
we not guilty of lip service?
Must' religion forever be a thing of
folrn and not of fact, of seeming and
not of substance?
This is not an arraignment of any
body. It is nn attempt at a little heart
searching. The implied criticism is as
much of myself as of any one else.
Is Christendom true to him whose
name it wears? If not. is it not time
for us seriously to ask ourselves why?
And v
Is it not true that we individually
and in the mass sought to conform
more nearly to his standards.
Dreaming.
The cause of failure with most men
is dreaming what they might have
been. -Judge.
