E: BRODIE - Entered as second-class matter Oregon City, under the Act of March 2, TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION One year by mail Six months by mail Four months by mail Per week, by carrier CITY OFFICIAL -CARRIERS' PLEA All through the session of the state association of FOR GOOD ROADS letter carriers, the story of poor roads was told over and over again and the plea made for better highways that would give quicker transportation between points both for the farmer and for the car rier of the government mails. ' No class of persons suffer more from the lack of good roads than do the carriers of mail. Daily they ride over the rocks and dumps that infest many of the highways of the state and, in all kinds of weather, bring to the door of the farmer anything from a check for his last carload of hogs to a circu lar from the big mail order houses. Through the carriers, the plea for good roads has been given a tremend ous impetus! Better highways would not only mean that the transportation cost would be cut for the farmer but it would add to the efficiency of his mail service,. would cut down the time between deliveries, and would insure liim more prompt and thorough handling of his share of the bags of mail that daily travel over the highways of the state. Good roads are an important factor in the development of the mail ser vice as they are in the progress of. every farming community and through those communities of every city in the state. Upon the development of good roads in Oregon, depends, to a large extent, the ease and facility with which the government handles its mail. Prompt mail service is almost an item to the farmer as it is to the business man in his office in the city. It means that he can save a day or two on the orders that come for his produce or his produce or his stock. All over the state, the farmers are as keenly alive to their business interests as are the men of the city to theirs. Producers of the food stuffs of the world, they learn of the market quo tations for their supplies through the columns of their papers or the bulletins that are regularly sent to thema at certain definite periods. To them, time saved in the delivery of mail means money just as much as it means money in the pockets of the city men. No stronger plea for. better highways, not only in this county but in every county of the state, could have been made than was delivered by the carriers themselves at their annual convention. It was an unanswerable argument in favor of improved roads. Clackamas county has some good roads and it has some that might easily be improved. The recommendation for the proper use of the split log drag i? appropriate and would be effective on some of the post roads for the prompt and easy handling of the mail, the farmers need roads to cut down the cost of transportation to the markets, the city needs good roads to secure for its markets the products of the country surrounding it and upon which it is de pendent. In fact, everybody needs good roads. Everybody wants good roads. Ev erybody sees the value, economically and from every other standpoint, for good roads. The time has come when some of those theories should be put into practice and when the county and every other county in the state should see that the money now wasted on bad . roads should be saved in the pockets of its farmers. f - k-S" ' V - By GEORGE I BELIEVE THE THING TO DO IS TO KEEP THE FARMERS ON THE FARM. LET THE MEN WHO KNOW FARMING KEEP AT IT AND PROVIDE THEM WITH EVERYTHING THE CITY MAN HAS, AND, IN ADDITION, THEY HAVE THE INDEPENDENCE OF THEIR OWN BUSINESS. i The reason the farmers are leaving their farms to the tenants, the worst thing that can happen to a farm, is BECAUSE OF THEIR CHILDREN'. Nearly every farmer sees the benefits of education, and he is determined that his children shall have the BEST THERE IS. Un der the present system this cannot be done, so he moves to town to edu cate his children. We ought to pr.ohibit the building at anything but two to four room school buildings, with an auditorium or large recreation room. Four to eight ordinary school districts should be joined into one and put up a REAL SCHOOLHOUSE right in the center of the consolidated district, employ two or three real schoolteachers and pay them as good salaries as the teachers get in the cities. - Then have a man with a big covered wagon haul the children living a mile or more away to and from school. This can be done for five cents a day per child, and it will PROMOTE REGULAR ATTENDANCE at all times. The district should pay the expense. - There are thirty or forty of these consolidated districts in Kansas now, and the school work is just as high class as in the cities, and in the five or six of these districts I have been in the farmers told me their chil dren got AS GOOD EDUCATION IN THE GRADES AS ANY CITY CHILD, and there was no talk' of moving to the cities among ffflllll ENTERPRISE Editor and Publisher January 9, 1911, at the postoffice at 1879. .$3.00 . 1.50 1.00 . .10 NEWSPAPER Endeavor to Encourage the Farmer to Stay on the Farm H. HODGES, Governor of Ka SHAW, THE ECCENTRIC. His Personality Compels Him to Wear Cocoa Colored Clothes. "I love order in sill things." said George Bernard Shaw at a public meeting so;tie time ago. "For this renson I am not conteut with ordering my life; I also order my personality I have cocoa colored hair, so I wear cocoa colored clothes and drink cocoa."' Shaw today has reached the position af becoming a public institution. For more than twenty years he has suc ceeded in fulfilling his boast that every day some leading paper would have something to say about him. George Bernard Shaw is the jester at the court "of Ki.ig Demos When years ago he was appointed dramatic critic to a well known journal he re fused to obey the ironclad regulation that occupants of the stalls must wear evening dress. The first nigbt he was stopped at the door of a theater by an attendant. "What do you object to?" Inquired Shaw., "My cocoa colored jacket?" The attendant assented. "A'ery well then." said the critic, "I will remove it." And the next moment he was striding up the aisle In his shirt sleeves. "That won't do. sir!" shouted the at tendant, running after him. "Won't do?" exclaimed Shaw with a fine assumption of indignation. "Do you think I'm going to take off any more?" The nonplussed attendant banded him his jacket and Shaw took his seat in the stalls triumphantly. During the first nine years this bril liant man was in London his earnings from literature brought him the prince ly sum of 0. Now he has an income of several thousands a year. Of that period which he spent in want he says with his characteristic candor: "My mother worked for my living instead of preaching that it was my duty to work for her; therefore, take off your hat to her and blush. I did not throw myself into the struggle for life; I threw my mother into it. I was not a staff to my father's old age: 1 hung on to his coat tails." London "Life. A CURIOUS LOVE SCENE. Rochefort Sprang a Surprise on. the Troubled Couple. Kocbefort could be very democratic on occasions. I remember an amusing incident which occurred when Roche fort was in London.

In answer to a communication from a lay correspondent, who expresses his belief that "the lime In common water has much to do with bringing on old age." the London Lancet says that while that opinion is common, it is, of course, fatuous. To those people who believe that water is the only possible channel by which lime salts are' con veyed to the organism the writer says, "Lime salts are Inseparable from the common, everyday articles of food, so that if hard water were left out of the dietary there would still be secured a large intake of lime salts, which could only be avoided bv a hunger strike." THANKS. THANK God for this bright frailty of life. The lyric briefness of its reckless spring. ' Thank God for all the swift ad venturing. The bold uncertainty, the strengthening strife. Thank God the world is set to such a tune. That life is such a' proud and crashing wave: That none but lifeless things shall be time's slave. Like the long dead but never tiring moon; That godlike passion strangely leaps and runs; Tnat youth cannot grow old nor beauty stale; That even death is fragile and must fail Before the winds of joy that speed the suns. Louis Untermeyer. d 1 . w Gems In Verse 0 JAPANESE TOWELING. Runners For Breakfast Tables That Are Artistic and Durable. Japanese toweling can be put to many intei'fcsting uses. It is cheap, artistic in design and easy to launder, so it ought to be popular. The most usual way to make aw of it is to make it into runners tor the breakfast and luncheon table. These are strips long enough to go througb the center of the table, from end to end, and cross it at intervals, so that each end of each runner is used for a place. The ends can be hemstitched, hemmed or feather stitched. Instead of runners, doilies can be made of this toweling. Make them square and hemstitch them on two sides. Napkins for use with runners cau be made in the same way. They are attractive and easy to launder and save wear and tear on more expensive damask. Runners for sideboard and serving table of this toweling are attractive for use in the simple dining room fur nishing in blue. They can be finish ed like the table runners. Toweling can also be made into very decorative curtains. These can be hemstitched at the end which hangs free, and hemmed to go over brass rods. If a valance is desired, it can be made of a strip of toweling running, lengthwise across the top of the win dow. This sort of valance will not need hemstitching and seaming, as one made of .fiections of the toweling run ning up and down would. Attractive couch covers are made of several lengthwise strips of the towel ing fagoted together with dark blue if the design is in blue, as it usually is. For use on a couch covered in this way. cushions can also be covered with the toweling. Two strips of the toweling, fagoted together, are used for the cushion slip cover. sSS3$S$SSS33$S4 '. G. ICE.
