A COMMERCIAL CLl'B PROGRAM.
Portland papers recently have had
frequent mention of the effort being
made by the Commercial clubs of
various Oregon cities to obtain sub
scriptions sufficient to enable them
to meet budget needs. In each case
mention has been made of the total
set for the budget and of the progress
toward its attainment. The totals
have run from $10,000 to $15,000.
and the sums have been subscribed.
These clubs, in other words, have
outlined definite programs for them
selves for the year and have gone
about getting the necessary funds
with which to carry out their pro
grams. Would not such procedure be de
Birable here in Bend?
The Commercial club, which is
looked to as the chief organization
devoted to the advancement of the
business interests of the city, Is whol
ly without program today. It meets
each week. If someone has a piece
of business to present to the club he
has an opportunity to do so, or if a
visitor is present he is called on for
remarks. ' He tells the club what a
fine little city Bend is. what a re
markable future It has, and what a
progressive lot of business men he
has found here and the meeting ad
journs with nothing aboard but food
and soft soap to nourish it until an
other meeting day rolls around.
All this is very well as a weekly
entertainmerit but altogether lacking
In worth as milestones of progress
toward definite aims. Possibly the
club has' no desire to aim at any
thing, and if so, very well, but its
sporadic outbursts of energy on mat
ters of local commercial importance
suggest that it really has an idea
of living up to what its name im
plies. So we repeat, would it not be a
good plan for the club to set a pro
gram for itself and then go after it,
at the same time enjoying its weekly
'luncheons and. doing its occasional
bits of business?
Let it agree on the three most im
portant things needed by the town, !
and the three most important things
needed by the county, and go after
tjem. Set out projects, as Mr. Hud
son has suggested to the state bank
ers association that it decide on coun
ty agricultural projects, and see them
through. Whe.n these are through
set out more.
If the club will do this It will ac
complish much for the town.
The banker stands and waves his hands, each
day I see him beckon ; "To bring your rooks to my
strong box," he says, "is wise, I reckon. Oh, salt
them down, the groat and crown, the kopeck and
the shilling; and then, I guess, in days of stress
your wad will make a killing." We hear him cry
' as we go by, we hear the helpful banker; but sound
advice cuts little ice when for fool things we han
ker. The coin we earn we wish to burn, as other
gents are doing; and so we hear the banker seer
with pshawing and beshrewing. We need new
boats and leather coats and silks that gleam and
glimmer, two-dollar socks and oil well stocks dis
pensed by cheap flam-flimmer. The rainy day
seems far away, the money grows on bushes, and
so we chase to every place where all the spend
thrift push is. The banker stands and cries, '"My
lands! Are people all gone nutty? The road you
tread looks smooth ahead, but soon it's rough ajui
rutty. Bring in your scads. Oh, locoed lads, bring
in the dime and nickle; the sanest guy beneath the
sky is he whose coin's in pickle."
