Raaadenca Tabor 2s 13 Lents will be just as well pleased as any other part of the city to see the annual city tax held down to less than 8 mill*. We would not mind if it were 5 mills. Too. an intention of the council that looks good is the an nouncement that speculators in real estate who have made large street improvements at the city’s expense will be required to put up the money for their improve ments. instead of requiring the city to carry their indebtedness. Nobody in this neck of the woods has begun the organiza tion of a company of volunteers for the approaching Mexican campaign, but there are plenty of the boys ready to take a trip down into that country for the fall and winter. It would appeal to several of them as an easy- way tn evade a winter clothing account. But then it snows on the Mexican plateaus sometimes. Hie fellows who are taking bets on the retirement of Tom Word at the approaching elec tion are mighty quiet about it There are several people right out here in Eastern Multnomah who have some money that say 9 Word is not losing any sleep over the outcome, and that he will be found at the court house after the fourth of November. Some of the biggest suburbs around Portland are as quiet as a cemetery these days. And when their citizens visit Lents the hum of industry fairly ap- pals them. Not used to the noise of such a large variety of industrial projects being under way at one time. But Lents is getting use to it Don’t forget that next Tues day is election day. And there are several important things to settle. It will not be as big a job as on last election but the is sues are very important and your vote should be counted. ROTES OF THE W. C.

In bis address of welcome before the state W.C. T U convention recently held in Corvallis, C ity Superintendent Kirk stated that a careful investigation made last year «bowed that 76 per cent of the boys in the public schools did not use tobacco or alcoholic dnnk, in any form, and 10 per cent of the remaining 24 per cent were only occasional user« of to bacco. It may be stated that the Superintendent of the Corvallis echo is baa liern a total abstainer from child hood. A man in a public position with a stroog record like that is a great help in the character forming of children and youth The voting people of Len’s have some good examples and there are boys in Lenta who do not use tobacco. Think of ail the boys you know who are abstainers and then add to th* «ist toe principal of the sc boo . the editor of the oew«paper, the ministers of the varioss churches and the men you know who are clean of mouth and pare of breath and y«M> will cone ule this is a pretty good community. jf there ia any per so« who thinks m*n do not care or the Woman.s T«m- perance Union they should have at tend«! the Corvallis meeting and heard the addresses of welcome given there.

On Aug 20 and 21 an unusual good roads campaign was carried out la the state of Missouri As the result of an appeal by Governor Major a vast army of men. estimated at a quarter of a million, and mule teams put in two days’ wort Improving the highways of the state. The work of these men and teams was volunteered an«!

In nearly every section the wort was «ys te ma fixed the road overseers of the various distri'-ta having charge of the volunteer«, so that the greatest amount of good could be accomplished. Boys that were too small to do road work were kept busy carrying water and running errands In many of the larger dtle« boy scouts volunteered to serve In any rapacity In which they were needed.
