Luck and Lack
Don't trust to luck. Luck is untrustworthy.
Systematic, scientific striving for any
goal is far more likely to bring you suc
cess than any mere faith in your success.
J-st as changing a sinjle letter changes "Luck" to
"Lack," so wiil the reverses of a single tlajr change
plenty to want. But you can insure yourself nut
tin by building your success on the habit of u . ing.
Save and Win
Be well dressed. Make friends. Increase your In.
fluence in your community. Ecjoy the reflect of
all your associates.
These things in not come to thcoe who trust to
luck for them. Systematic saving will win tinra for
you. Sstematic saving
ill accumulate for you
a small fortune that can
safely and readily be
expanded to a large oat.

Modern
Furniture Needs
In the dining room, In the parlor, in the
hall are many places call.ng for indivluual
pieces of furniture. For Instance, there are
stands of various kinds, hat racks, china
closets, book cases. In each of these needs
and In many others we have a variety of
styles from which to choose. They are both
Useful and Ornamental
We offer a worth-while collection of table
and floor lamps, porch furniture, etc. There
is scarcely a limit to the list of Items we
carry under this class of furniture. A casual
stroll through our displays might suggest
exactly what you want if you are undecided.

Threatening showers remind us

The Sinn Feiners are still at it.
They have removed the apparatus
from light houses along the coast
of Ireland, endangering navigation.
The coast country is pretty dry
at present but there is no evidence
that Franklin Roosevelt in his trip
through was able to set any of it en
fire.
While the daily newspapers have
many stories of falling prices on
shoes, clothing, sugar, etc., the
prospect is, such decreases will be
a considerable time reaching us..
Women may find it a hard Strug

Electric locomotives descending
the Rocky Mountain slopes generate
electricity that helps other trains
up the opposite slopes. Another

Rattlesnakes in the Ramapoo
mountains, twenty five mi!e3 from
New York city are as numerous as

been professionally hunted for years.
The human kind is also quite plenti

off from the Bowery.
Judging from the manner in
which the thirty sixth state was

be denied that militant woman has
few things to learn in the line of
practical politics.
Print paper has recently raised
from nine to twelve cents a pound,
four times what it ought to be, and

A woman subscriber urges the
Herald to crusade against the wild
carrot, the Ui sightly presence of
which along the streets and in field
and vacant lots is only too apparent.
These weeds, which apparently
havecome to us from Fastern Ore
gon, have taken possession every
where. The best way to handle
them is for individuals to take hold
and clean out their own premises.
They should have civic pride enough
to do this and sooner or later if it
is not done the municipality and
county will have to take up the
work.
A shortage of teachers is threat
ened in Portland because the supply
bf substitutes is not equal to the
number of city teachers who for
various reasons are resigning. The
resignations of thirty three teachers
were accepted recently and now
twelve more ask to be re'e.tsed. So
great ha bsvn the call for teachers
that some have felt privileged to
leave one job and accept another for
reasons more or less trivial. At
tention tas been directed to the
state law regulating coi.trects of
this kind and the stute supcrirt.m

teachers have thrown up their con
tracts within 60 days of the open

"1 acknowledge" said Attorney
Haste "that the commission1 should
be vested with power to lay out the
highways of the state. It is the
only logical way to conduct the
work. Rut the law. In the legis
ature it was necessury to get two
votes from Dullus to puss the luw
creating the highway. To get
these votes they had to include Dal
las on the highway," There you
have the situation in a nutshell.
While in a legal sense, Dallas may
be entitled to the highway it can
not make the same claim for the
road to4 Salem. This and the county
bond issue were a part of a pro
gram to which the whole county
agreed. Getting this, Dallas is not
entitled to more. The commission
is right In stopping all mad work
in the county until the whole mat
ter is settled, not as punishment,
but as plain justice. They have
played a clever game in Dallas,
They have the county bond issue.
Their rights in that matter were
not sacrificed as Monmouth's were
by a trick in preparing the bond
election notice. Rut as for the
rest of the program the cards did
not break exactly right. They can
not get the through highway and
the road to Salem as well, as they
evidently expected to do,
