A Marvelous Record. In 1909, also in 1910 and again in 1911, Oregon Life sold more policies in Oregon than any other company. March 1912, was the biggest month that this company has ever had, and in the first quarter of 1912 more policies were issued than ever before in any three months since organiza tion. Death losses paid remain just where they were at the close o f business, December 31, 1911, namely, a total o f only $38,000 since organization o f Oregon Life. Mr. John F. Roche, the well-known expert on life insur ance says: “ Oregon Life Insur ance company is an institution of wh;ch the people o f the state, the directors and its policy hold ers may well be proud.” a high class show, new faces, songs, dances and featuring that much talked o f dance, Texas Tommy, by three couple.

Our ladies’ s civic association has set next Saturday, April 20, I as Cleanup Day. Of course you can clean up as much before that day as you desire, but the object is to by that evening have out- town a city beautiful, as much as cleanly looking yards can do so. Means o f hauling away all garbage will be provided, so that those who cannot have such work done themselves can be accomo dated. Following the plan start ed by the Itemizer last year, the Civic club has decided to give three prizes for best kept prem ises. The first prize will be $5 cash and the second and third $2.50 each. Who will be the winner this year? Gus Bowman was first last year and Tracy Staats second. Kopiah Coal.

DECURES WOODROW WILSON. Registration of Pojk. Prefers Judgment of Rank and Fils. 5 don't know whether I was horn so or learned so or what happened to uie. but I know this, that the deepest con v let ion I have, arising out o f observn tlou and experience Is this, that I would rather fake the Judgment o f the rank and (ile than the Judgment o f the men who have liecome absorbed and successful leaders in great uudertak lugs And I want to ask these gentlemen tills query: What sustains business in the United States? Wbat is It that makes the United States prosperous? Is it that we have great captains of Industry? What would they do with out the cunning and skill, the muscle and the indomitable aspiring hope of tlie American people? I f these people were to find hope dying out o f their hearts they would become dumb driv en beasts, and your enterprises would fail for lack of the very breath that sustains them. If you want to find whether a na tiou Is prosperous ask the men wlio are oo the make what they lio|>e and what they fear Go to the country districts und ask anxious fathers who are looking for openings for their sous where they expect to get them In. where they find doors open ami where they find doors shut Go through the places where men are making earn ings an4 see whether they dread or confidently look forward to the future, and then you will find whether Ameri ca is waxing or waning, for if these men are confident, full of hope; If they know they are going to get fair treat meut wherever they go. then America can conquer the world of enterprise in their hope. • But If yon find what you do find men everywhere asking themselves whether the doors of opportunity have not l>eeu locked in their faces—then you will have to take a new reckoning as to the future of America. if only those who are chosen at the top b a v^ tb e right of way In. what Is going to happen to America? Did you ever hear o f a nation that was renew ed from the top? Did you ever hear of a nation that was not made virile that did not account for Its youth by renewal from the -bottom? Did you ever hear o f a tree that drew Its sap from Its flowers? Does it not draw it from the dark and silent places o f the mill? Does not a nation draw Its pow er o f renewal and enterprise and all Its future from the ranks o f the great body of unnamed men? Friend of American Business. If you are going to discourage these men. If you are going to put the chill o f fear In their hearts, then American captains o f industry can whistle for their future, and they will whistle in a wilderness I am the friend o f American bust ness liecauae I know where Its fonnda tions are laid and where they are weak. These foundations nre solid only when laid In the confidence of the common |>eople. A Democrat? Why. a man does not mderstand history who Isn’t a Demo «•rat. A man doesn't understand enter prise who Isn’t a Democrat And lei me say this. Democracy Is not merely r. matter o f programs: It Is a matter of ►ympathv and Insight. It depends I pon whether your heart Is In connec Hon with the great heart of the f»eo pie. It does not de|H»nd upon whether von can cunningly devise a platform that looks Just and good You cun build a flimsy platform and stand on It successfully, provided Ita basis is in 'he right kind of spirit. It Is a matter o f seeing, not from vonr eyes out. but from the eves ot »flier men In Getting the vision that is in the back of the other run u s head is the thing: getting the ho|»e that is l'»e universal hope: getting that Im •olse that Is the common human im incise, forward This world has been Julius* (v Voget et ux to Kdwurd J «wept hv wave after ware of Demo Young, lot 7 in block 12, King- •ratlc Impulse OTICE I« hereby given that the board of wood Park ................................. 3000 N sch ool director* o f D istrict No. 16. o f A irlie Ore. w ill receive sealed bid* till April 20.
