In another column we print the story o f the fatality in which the son of an Eustport, Maine packer ran over and killed two form er Monmouth women. He was lodged in jail until heavy bail was secured. To be perfectly onsistent the Eastport man should announce that if he is allowed to run his automobile when and where he pleases he w ill remain in California. I f not he will remove to Florida or some other state that appreciates the privileges o f wealth. The idea opens up a wide field o f possibilities. With some special attention to our divorce laws we might secure quite a colony of movie actresses; special laws to accommodate prize fighters would make us the meeca o f the sporting fraternity; with legalized five per <ent beer, Mr. Edwards o f New Jer- ey might head a rush o f the advo- <ates o f personal liberty to our midst. Here is something to think about. To thankfully say that our progress results From the friendship of such folks as you. m LJ m is u ru ru m vtiM Jru 8 Thomas & Horton § 8 8 INDEPENDENCE, OREGON É X >-• G. O. P. Convention at Cleveland In 1924 - Here are a few targets during 1924. to aim at An auto camp ground, either with in or close to the city limits, under piivate or municipal management. A definite step fo r a city sewer system. One o f the things we should aim at during 1924 is a uniform system of shaded streets for the city. The ap pearance o f the city would be much improved if some o f its present bare streets were lined with shade trees. There should be uhifoim ity to it, for just as a man would not care to have several varieties o f buttons on his coat or a variety .of colors on his house, neither should there be start ling contrasts in the street ornamen tation of a city. There are a few people who would not approve of har mony with their neighbors even in the planting of shade trees, but the great majority see the merit o f civic unity and only await an agreed pro gram to boost the move. Let us have a shade tree program before 1924 cloaca. ■''’ ¡'■nils will iinmliintt» tlx ir l t d I’reskleutlal eatulldate in unis new mi i » n ». i m > l'abile Unii I'hoto shows Interior of hall, wb.eli will sent UJ iksi . insert Is of the exterior.

Men o f fam ilies pause to weigh achievements o f the past twelve months. It is good time wasted— unless costly experiences are converted into firm resolves to make the coming year a better one. Responsibilities make men great. Do not despair at failures o f the past. They are gone. The thing that now interests you most is “ how to care fo r your fam ily properly— and at old age find yourself inde pendent o f charity.” The answer is a simple one. Spend less than you earn— and save the difference. You will be surprised how soon dollars pile up in a saving account. Then you can put dollars to work for you. They will earn your ease and comfort.
