QUILLEN, Editor and Manager. If you are doing half the busi Entered as Second-Class mail matter in the post office at Cottage ness you ought to, perhaps you Grove, Oregon, under the provisions o f the Act of March 3, 1879 are only doing half as much ad vertising as you ought to. Will You Help Boost? I have been in Cottage seven Grove just weeks and two days, and that is just seven weeks longer than it took me to learn that this beautiful city, like all others, is afflicted with that class of knockers who think it smart to speak o f their home town as inferior to all other towns, and who find fault with the live men of the town, because “ t h e y ” always want to run things;” and they’ ll tell you that, “ you can’t expect anything better in this town,” and are always advising the men who really do things that “ if you want to get anywhere you must pattern this, that or the other move after Eugene or Portland or Chicago or New York.” Such talk doesn’ t sound good to the old-timer who is really in love with his town how, then, do you suppose it afreets the average new comer? What would you do if, after working your way up thru great tribulation to the portals of the New Jerusalem, you should find St. Peter standing just outside the Pearly Gates knocking the “ Realms of the Blest” something like this: “ Naw, I wouldn’t go in if I were you. I get awfully tired of it myself. You see the trouble is, there are a lot of those old timers, fellows who came here about the time of Abraham, who want to run the whole shebang. They’ ve got a lot of old, rusty, out-of-date harps that rattle like a loose board on your neighbor’s back yard fence, and yet they think they ought to be allowed to lead the Celestial Choir. Then there are a lot of late arrivals who bore me to death with their never-ending harping on wireless telegraphy and the aeroplane.’ Why, we had those things here before Cain was born.” “ Naw, I wouldn’t advise you to go in. You won’ t find any peace in there, and if I couldn’t get out here once in a while and get a breath o f fresh air, and get away from that eternal wrangle, 1 believe I’d chuck the whole thing and go to hell.” After such a harangue as that from the gate keeper, would you go into heaven? Not much you wouldn’ t IIow do you suppose a stranger feels on arriving in Cot tage Grove to be met with a knock something like the above? I)o you imagine it adds any charms to the town in his eyes? Don’t you suppose he has heard the story of high taxes and town bosses many, many times before? Suppose a salesman in one of the Cottege Grove stores should approach a customer something like this; “ Yes we have a very fair line of teas, coffees, sugars, etc., which I would like to show you, but they are not quite as good as Jones sells, and our price is a little higher.” Do you imagine that fellow would ever sell anything? Not to sensible people! What a salesman must have is a belief in the superiority of his goods. What a citizen of a town needs is faith in his town. We need enthusiasm. We can never impress outsiders without it. We need to get out and make a noise. We must feel that we have the best town in Oregon; we must believe that we are surrounded with the best land, in habited by the most enterprising and progressive people. We have the location and the field for many manufacturing enterprises ami we are beautifully located in the center and as the outlet of several very rich and productive river val leys, while the timber and mineral resources tributary here are unlimited. Get enthusiasm! Make a glad noise not a growl! If you don't like the town get out of it! If you do like it, go to work for it! Don’ t sit down and leave it all to "They.” There isn’ t a man in the city so big that he is exempt from the duty of boosting, and there isn’ t a boy so small that he can’ t help. The women and the girls are just as able to boost as the men and boys, and in some towns the women are doing more than the men. We are looking forward to big things when the canal opens, and when people come to the fair, and we can make it a big year, if we get busy, but we must bo in training it is none too early now to l>egin. Let us direct our energies to this one end for a year, laying aside a whole lot of things that don't cotint for much in the general balance of town boosting. Our people an* as capable as any other people, they can get up as much enthusiasm as any other, they are as hard workers, they an' as loyal to a cause, once enlisted in a work, as the people of any town. Let’s not scatter our shots, waste our ammunition or al low our steam to escape. Ix't’s all join a booster Club, one in which everybody wants to work and no one wants to boss. There’s an opportunity right now to do some good work. Are you ready to take hold ami help? Thomas Bolmer, once advertis ing manager for the Butterick publications, says: “ You cannot kill an elephant with a pop gun. Neither can you get a page effect with an inch advertisement.” Which is another way of saying you cannot do justice to your large stock of goods with a small ad. Suppose-you try a page ad in this paper. The prohibitionists are now ar ranging to make “ Old Kaintuck” a dry state in 1917. Roseburg had a “ two-day” clean-up-campaign last week, and now there is no place in that city for the “ pesky fly” to gain a foothold. Work was begun last week on a $75,000 Federal building at Ore gon City. The Baker grand jury, after a six day’s session, adjourned with an arraignment of Governor West, for his action in the Cop- perfield affair. San Francisco has the highest per centage of bachelors of any city in the country 45 1-2 per cent o f men between 25 and 45 being unmarried. The town of Milton has just voted $18,000 in bonds to build a municipal water plant. The weather man treated Montana to a blizzard accom panied by a fall of temperature to almost the zero point last week. Reports from the lower Rogue River valley indicate a heavy loss from frost on the night of March 26. The thermomoter fell to 19 at Medford. Lodgepole pine, o f which there are abundant stands in both the | Rocky Mountain and Coast ranges, when treated with pre- j servatives ought to serve in the ! place o f red cedar as a pole tim ber, says the department o f ag riculture in a bulletin just issued on Rocky Mountain woods for telephone poles. j So we send a list to Burpee, H Order all our place can hold. Then we wait a little longer Till the ground is not so cold. But when our garden’s planted rrom the brussels-sprouts to beets, ’ Twon’ t be long till we’ ll be having An abundance of “ good eats.” —Anonymous. 1 I % 1 « V • I ft ' * % X • 5 % ADMINISTRATORS NOTICE Notice is hereby given that by an or der of the county court of Lane county, >regou, duly made and antcred of rec ord tlic 9th, day o f March, 1914, in the matter of the estate of, Orriu Robinson, deceased, the undersigned, Mary L.
