TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1925 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAGE SEVEN The county court contemplates starting in a short time on out lining its market road program Cor the coming year. Arrlvnl of a war rant for $32,000 aa half of the mar ket road fund coming to the coun ty from the stato for the past year will set the machinery in motion for outlining the program. With the county being required to match this fund and a second installment of like n mount being due from the state along in Feb ruary, this will give tho county about $123,000 to work on next year for market road development from the 1-mill tax. In addition that the county's share of the gasoline tax for tho year will be about $75,000, this also to go into the market road fund. With over $200,000 in eight for market road development the court will be ready to start In the spring in full swing on the first lap of its new five year program. At the present time there seems to be la sight miles of pavement In elf lit which will be a virtual neces sity, this including two miles near Monitor, three miles near Scotts Hills and three miles near Me ha ma and there also will be additional paving work, although just howe extensive has not been determined. It is doubtful if there will be as much pavement put down jiext year aa this when 10 miles ofnew pavement were laid .on county roads, Tho new program will haVe more of an Idea toward lifting the smal ler communities out of the mud with good types of macadamized and graveled roads, and some ef forts at oiling in a few places as an experiment. Numerous parts of the county not benefited at all from the mar ket road funds under the first pro gram will have considerable active work done during the next fivo years. Just which will be the first to benefit will be outlined during the coming weeks in readi ness for actual work In tho spring. By an order of the public service commission, Issued today, the of Eugene is authorized to elim inate grade crossing of Blair boule vard over the Southern Pacific tracks In tho northwest part of the city, one of tho most heavily used crossings on the Eaclflc highway.

Tho order points out that the city Is now improving Railroad avenue, which parallels Blair boule vard and which will accommodate traffic by way of a crossing on Van Buren street, also that plans are being completed for entrance Into the city by West Sixt street. Tho petition of the city for au thority to eliminate the Blair boulevard crossing was protested by a large number of persons own ing property on Blair.

It they are right they lead to success , through service If they are wrong well, the coasts of commerce are strewn with the wrecks of business that tried to operate under mis taken or deliberately de ceptive policies. We who come into dally contact with established policies of large institutions are prone to take them as matters of course, and either approve or disap prove of them according to our various lights. Rarely does It occur to us to consider the manner of their making or tho amount of time and thought sometimes days and weeks of concentrated study that hos led to their formulation ana promulga tion. The first Skaggs store dif fered from other stores chief ly in the Important partlcu lary of 'Ha almost unbeliev ably low operating costs. De spite the fact that it wbj founded with the avowed de termination of eliminating waste from the distribution costs of foodstuffs, it was dif ficult to realize at first how much had really been accom plished and the extent to which the methods employed wore destined to Influence re- tall practices. Neither could It reasonably be expected that the founder could forsee and lay down rules and poi lclcs to govern the thousands of contingencies and prob lems that arose as the busi ness grew and spread. These had to be met and solved as they presented themselves and out of their solution and the soundness of the Judg ment with which the solution was applied has grown this vast organization and the policies end personnel that have made Its outstanding success possible. For instance, It was discov ered that the savings In oper ating costs as compared to the operating costs of the av- erago retail grocery In themselves constituted a lib eral profit. The Federal Oov ernment. In Us Investigations of profiteering, had driernv Ined that from 16 to 18 per cent was a fair operating cost for the average grocery to which must be added a fair net profit. Operating costs In the Kkaggs store were less than half the amount allowed by the Gov ernment a condition due entirely to the spirit In which It was founder and tne op eratlng economies effected and one which permitted the new store to do business and make a liberal profit on p ergln less than tho actual corns of the average store.

The second Hkaggs store was opened In October, 1916, and subsequent like ventures followed in due course and order, but It is worthy of note that In the working out of a plan of operation for the second store, good busi ness practices and the prin ciple of the Golden Rule were observed. This plan was t scd upon a profit-sharing Ideal of equity to the customer, the manager and the originator. Its fruition Is evidenced by a practicable, tangible. FtINC TIONINO reality and Its ap plication has served to weave a closely knit organization alike In ambition, desires and practices. It has given a present and future to clear headed young men, who in their ambition to achieve are thrice willing to serve. It has put respon sibility in the hands of those most effected and has never overriden their rights nor Ignored their Ideas, prlvlllges and suggestions. It has at tracted loyal hearted men rflen not susceptible to petty bribery nor shortsighted promises. It han given us more than three hundred huy stores and upwards of fifteen hundrrd enorgetlo young people with trained minds, open hearts and eager hands, thousands upon thou sands of pntrons, and it has elevated the standards of food distribution throughout the entire west.
