If ratified By the people at this election, the tith ing bill would take ten percent of all money col lected for the state game fund and place it in the gênerai fund of the state. In other words, ten per cent of the money which sportsmen pay annually for the propogation of fish and game in. Oregon would go for purposes other than that for. which - it* ‘was collected. ' ‘ • There is neither ryme nor reason in this unjust proposal. The bill was passed by the last legislature as a political expedidicy. Oregon’s fish and game are far too valuable as state assets to be jeopard ised by the ratification of this measure. It would mean that propogation *of trout, pheasants, Quail, and otljer game fish and game birds would be seriously curtailed. It would mean tfiat the streams and forests, of Oregon would suffer an irreparable loss. Not only sportsmen but citizens generally should Work against this tithing bill, because the out- dpor sports and recreations are chief among the state’s attractions to visitors and tourists, and as aj matter of cold-blooded business everything should h^ done to keep them in their present high state of efficiency. J The safe and sane and sensible thing to do npxt Tuesday is to vote 327 X No, and save to the ffame fund the money which the sportsmen donate for the propogation of fish and game. Slogans And Advertising* “ My Community First.’*! * ' How does this sound as a slogan for Ashland, or for any other progressive little city in Oregon or elsewhere? i Frankly, we believe it is a slogan which every citizen should memorize and repeat many times a day as a means of avoiding possible temptation. When you pick up the massive catalogue of the mail order house, just think of the slogan: , “ My Community First.’* \ When you are tempted to go to a neighboring city to purchase some article of food or wearing apparel or household furnishing, just think of this slogan: , ; “ My Community First.’* ; Some people don’t believe in slogans. They look upon them merely as a gesture. But people .who advertise know the value of slogans, and tho best way to Advertise Ashland is to believe in it and observe this slogan: ; . “ My Community First.” , “ Say it with flowers” is the popularized slogan of the national florists. It has put millions of dol lars into their cash registers. ; “ Save the surface” ia known throughout the nation as the slogan of paint manufacturers, call ing attention to countless thousands of home own* ers that it is time to paint their houses. “ Your home should come first”, is the new slogan of furniture manufacturers of America and it is increasing the sales of furniture throughout the land. Slogans are mighty fine things for cities as well as for business establishments. As a means of fostering the buy>-at-home spirit as well as creating a deeper pride, we suggest that Ashland observe ^this slogan: ' « . “ My Community First.” Bud’s Romance Interesting indeed ia the romance of Bud Still man and a girt who waa a maid in his mother’s household, and it may redeem, in a measure, the family whose domestic quarrels gave the public on o tits ugliest scandals. It ¡ r far from an easy role that Lena Wilson is called upon to play. It is only in fairy Stories that a Cinderella finds it possible to step easily into the ranks of wealth and fashion. The aristocracy of money in this land of the free is often almost as impenetrable as the aristocracy of nobility abroad, and then* will be many a heart-burning before the eonntry-girl wife of a* Stillman with millions can move at ease in her new environment of gold. But here’s luck to her. 7Ä »ooooooooooooooooooooooo Kiddies’ Evening Story By MARY GRAHIJR BONNER »ooooooooooooooooooooooo 7"A« W et H andkerchief J T ? “? ? ?
