An Investment
of Happiness
If you haven't a home, if you've spent years of your life
b lur.dinjf from pillar to post with the whims and moods Jof
a landlord constantly at your heels, if you are just "exist
in.;" in a crowded apartment, ifyou have a wife and kiddies
you want to make happy just consider:
i
It it worth while? '
Why not make this INVESTMENT IN HAPPINESS and
make eai-h day contribute its complement of Joy, Comfort,
Satisfaction and Happiness?
Own your own home
Monmouth needs home owners worse than it needs houses
to rent. . What is wrong with a city or country in which
the business and professional men rent homes? Is it becom
ing old-fashoned to "own your own home?"
Let us tell you how you can build with the' money you
save in rent.

What would our grandfathers
have thought If they had been in

follow up a tour like the Jersey
breeders made through the valley
this week. The progress of the
past thirty years is an indication of
the progress which the next thirty
will see.

The Jersey Breeders were shown
the best we have. The Willamette
valley dishes out n any days as nice
in the way of weather during the
year as Wednesday was, but none
better.
The Germans, it is said, plan
prodigious efforts to raise huge
crops of sugar during the next year
or two. At the present market quo
tation, if that is the case, it will
not take them long to pay off their
war debt out of their sugar profits.
In the heit of our own politics!
battles we are losing sight of some
lively scrimmages which are taking
place in Mexico.
Our observation has taught us
that where any one in power delib
erately seta to work to shape
events to make political issues out
of them, the result invariably
proves a boomerang.

As for Hiram Johnson, he appears
to have California nailed down in
such a manner that nothing short
of an upheaval of nature could tear
it loose.
Our gravity water system will be
with us before we know it. The
next job will be the raising of the
wherewithal to pay for it.
Suppose a man approached you
and asked for a subscription
towards building a gymnasium for
the high school, a building that at
the same time would serve many of
the purposes of a community cen
ter. What would you give? Fig
ure out from your assessed valu
tion whatan eleven mill tax would
cost you. It is an even chance the
amount is less than you would nat
urally donate.

Higher Education
has ever cost
from its very beginning in Oregon
The College has reduced cost of pro
duction, improved quality of prod
uct, and helped keep down the petfs
of farm, garden, orchard and field.
like the State University
and the Normal
it has helped bring school, business,
and home into vital contact, and
has helped demonstrate that
Higher Education is of direct
help to the Conntry Districts
But higher education in Oregon
is crippled by great increases in
attendance, by lack of buildings, by
the fallen buying power of the
present millage support, and by the
failure of the millage support to
grow.
You are respectfully urged to
vote for the new millage support
bill on May 2, the Higher Educa
tional relief measure.
Support the Millage Bill
Monmouth owes it to itself
and the Normal to give this
measure a unanimous vote.

H. .Hirschberg of Independence
called us up last Friday to deny a
few things in the news item in the
Stalem Capitol Journal which we
copied last week. Aside from the
fact that he had not been to Port
land to interview the highway com
mission, that he had not interested
himself in any way recently In re
gard to the highway, and that be
knew nothing about any alleged
$4,000 fund, the item may have
been accurate. Here is another
item relative to Mr. Hirschberg of
which we copy from the Corvallis
Gazettel'Jimes: .Bob, Johnson of Cor
vjjllis in an interview in the G. T,
temarks: "Joe Hirschberg' of 1
Independence has no children, is
worth about a million dollars and
is working strenuously for the mil-
,lage measure. I'm in Joe's class as
far as kids go and I 'm going to be
