ELECTRICITY
FOR LIGHTING
Is only expensive to people who lire wasteful mill cureless. To you
who are iiiitiirully enrefull, It does not come high.
It Is economical because It can be quickly turned ott when not needed.
With bus or kerosene there Is the temptation to let light burn when not
needed to suve bother of lighting and adjusting. In some homes the
electric light bills amount to only one or two dollars per month. You
can probably get some kind of artillclal light for less money than elec
tric light, but does It save you anything when it limits opportunities for
work and recreation ruins your eyesight smokes your wails mars
decorations and increases household work. You could probably save
a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals but It wouldn't be eceon
omy. It is not so much what you save, but how you save that counts.

baggage will be checked on these tick
ets. The Modern Woodmen are preparing
to give one of the most enjoyable plo
nlcs. ever held In Western Oregon and
a large attendance Is assured. The low
round-trip rates granted by the local
railroad company will enable the peo
ple of Polk County to attend at a

SHOWS BIG INCREASE
Oregon's Not Gain In Population Will
Bo Approximately 260,000.
The census enumeration of the
state of Oregon, so far as it can be
confirmed by officers of the census bu
reau, will show a population of 675,
879. The net gain to the state will bo
262,343.
An interesting feature of the result
pertains to the total number of Con
gressmen which will be awarded to the
state, and the possibility that Multno
mah county will be declared a separ
ate congressional district.
Representation In the present con
gress is on a basis of one member for
each 194,000. Congress Is likely to
be Increased by the addition of twen
ty members on a total population of
90,000,000 In the United States. On
that ratio representation would be on
a basis of one for each 215,000 people.
Oregon would then gain at least one
member.
Practically the entire gain made by
the state has been secured within the
past four years. ,

Pupils Make High Grades.
From all parts of Polk County come
reports telling of the high grades
made by the public school pupils tak
ing the eighth grade examination. Few
of the bright boys and girls writing
for final papers have fallen below 90
per cent In their standing, and many
have made grades better than 95 per
cent. Such reports speak more elo
quently than words of careful, consci
entious and effective work on the part
of the teachers and the man at the head
of the public school system In Polk
County. Our people have cause to reel
proud of their excellent schools.
