A RETROSPECT
When I was young I wasn't good; the teacher whaled Ine all
the while; he used up nearly all the wood he could find within a
mile. He used up limbs of stately yews, he wore out sticks of elm
and beech; sometimes he hit me with his shoes; he didn't hi've
much time to teach. At night I used to go to bed and plan mv ven
geance while I wept. "I'll punch that four-eyed teacher's head,"
T f UBHU lo murmur as 1 Biept. Hut now that I am old enl gray, I'd
like to grasp that teacher's hand and tell him that his gentle way
was something I can't understand. When I recall the way I tried
, to aggravate that good old soul, I wonder that he left my hide upon
me while he had a pole. And thus it is with many woes; we talk
revenge for some affront; but as time flies our anger goes, and so
I we try some milder stunt. "Our neighbor,'" we may cry today
has done to us a thing of shame"; but when our warmth has
passed away, we're apt to find that we're to blame. And so, when
we are making plans to even up some frightful wrong, it's wise to
seal our wrath in cans, until a few days slide along.

. EUGENE MUST FIGHT 'FOR RIGHTS
When the Commercial Club some' time ago requested the
Southern Pacific Company to run the gasoline motor car into
Eugene over the Albany. Springfield line, General Manager
O'Brien merely acknowledged receipt of the communication and
promised to answer further at some future time. That was sev
eral weeks ago, and nothing more has been heard from railroad
headquarters on the subject.
Meanwhile, this car continues running over the branch line,
tending to take the travel and business of Springfield, Coburg
and other Lane county towns, naturally belonging to the county
sea, to Albany and other points down the valley. This is not the
kind of treatment we were assured by the promotion depart
ment would be acoorded Eugene, in return for the $3000 turned
over to them by that oommittee. The company was to expend
at least $16,000 during the year in advertising this city, but
now, with the year practically one-third gone, nothing has been
given to show that the money donated to the printing depart
ment of the corporation. Furthermore, it is generally admitted
that the promotion work so far this year has been absolutely
barren of results, just as The Guard predioted it would be when
the welfare, of the community was entrusted to the tender mer
eles of the Southern Paoifio Company.
The lesson that should be learned from these unsatisfactory
conditions is that Eugene people must assert themselves. They
must put up their last dollar, if necessary, to force the recogni
tion of their commercial rights, but refuse a single cent for
tribute to a corporation which values only the money they pour
into its coffers for freights and fares. A city like Eugene is
not helples once the people are properly aroused, and with the
Hill lines coming up the valley from Salem, is in a position to
make a winning fight for the right to live and do business with
out being robbed by a transportation monopoly. Eugene peo
ple, by giving the Southern Paoifio the short haul, can divert
thousands of dollars monthly from that corporation; by con
vincing J. J. Hill that his road will be favored by our shippers
we may be able to hurry the tracks of the Oreogn Electric up the
valley; by standing back of the Lane County Asset Company
financially until the preliminary work on the line to Coos Bay is
completed, we will be able to place the company in a position
to secure from large financiers the money to complete that
highway to the coast; by backing up the movement launched for
an open river to Portland until congress heeds our demands, re
lief may come through wator competition.
These are some 6f the weapons which the people of Eugene
should use to make a winning fight against the Southern Paoifio
instead of allowing themselves to be "stood up," robbed and
mistreated by the corporation.
THE LITTLE WANTS OF LIFE
The little simple things are the ones that trouble us most in
life because we are not prompt in remedying them. The big
problems cause us less worry because we seek advice from the
proper souroe, and settle the matter.
One of the most interesting departments of the modern daily
newspaper is the little column that tells all about the wants of
the reader. The person who reads the newspaper ct random is
attracted to this little column out of curiosity, and soon learns
something to his advantage. The other readers have somb
little want to satisfy and look to the newspaper for the rem
cdy. If you lose ycur purse, your thought is to gct.it back as
quickly as possible, and you turn to the newspaper to te'll your
story. And why not use the newspaper for all your wants?
There is no quicker or surer method of making your wants
known to the thousands of readers than by telling of them in a
few words in tBe want ad column of the newspaper.
There is so great a diversity of ways that the little wanted
can bo employed that once used you get the habit. It is a good
habit, because it relioves you of all your little troubles and an
noyances. Read the littlo human interest column of the paper if you do
not now do so, and you will be surprised at the fascination it
will have for you.
