; Sportsmen in Jackson county as well as those in
even- other section of Oregon- should be as a unit in
nt* only voting against the proposed tithing bill
next Tuesday by working between now and election
day for the defeat of this unjust and unfair pro­
posal.
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.
