Goodall, in his communication of last Saturday, that busses can operate oftener and give bet ter service than streetcars. Streetcars can operate at intervals of one minuto on any line whero tho volume of traffic justifies it. As to car-stops, wo have yet to see a bus that is easier 'for women and children to get ir,in than .iirWpiiiv That, streetcars aro' better able siitiu vu(u un w vv" w , to operate in snow and ice conditions than busses is not a mere contention but a demonstrated fact in cities where Wh nr in iisn. f!itv streetcar lines arc equipped with power snowplows to clear the streets. Nothing of the dort. in nrnr.ticnhlfi for busses. . Mr. Goodall's parable of the steam shovel and the Rniir-visncnrl mnn is beside the subject. It is not a ques tion here of blocking progress for' tho sake of helping the streetcar company. It is not demonstrated, ana we think it is not demonstrable, that substitution of busses for streetcars in Eugene at present would be a step forward. It is the public interest rather tnan tlie street car company interest that would suffer by tho change, Fixitv of canital investments makes for permanency, That is whv tho streetcar company is hero today. Its tracks and its plant and the portion of tho pavements which it has paid for arc things that it did not feel like abandoning, despite the total, absence of dividends. . So it has stayed on in tho face of its losses, hoping for. a better day. A bus lino which did not pay dividends would not -be so tied. It could take its busses away over night whenever it becamo convinced that its busi ness was a losing one. . ' ' It is entirely possible that eventually, in the urban scheme of things, bus transportation may replace street cars. But bus transportation has not yet attained to a point of development or practical cnicicncy wnicn would justify such a change. In large cities where mere is enoutrh traffic to support both, there both will bo found. In a city , like Eugene there t is not enough traffic for both, and so tho question becomes one as to wmcn is xo bo preferred from the standpoint of public necessity and convenience. In such cities thcro can bo no question, wo think, that the streetcars aro to bo preferred. If and when busses are admitted to tho streets of Eugono they should come in under regulations and safe guards comparable w'ith those under which tho streetcars ' t perate. No such regulations or safeguards aro provided in tho proposal now before tho city. That proposal simply would give tho , bus' company, on pnyment of a nominal fee, permission to operate for one year. Require ments as to routing, permanent maintenance of service, liability for injury to passengers "and franchise require ments are mainly conspicuous by their absence. Tho city ordinance under which the bus company has applied for a licenso is lax. It does not protect the city or tho public. It ought to bo amended carefully or repealed. The question of admitting busses to Eugono 's streets involves far-reaching effects. 14 needs to bo de cided on that basis. "If the people prefer to rido in' busses, who shall say them nayT" asks Mr. Goodall. Obviously the answer is, nobody. That is why it is important that the pooplo inform themselves as to just what the carrying to its conclusion of such a preference would mean to them. When thoy have so informed themsolves it is un likely that a majority of them will "prefer to rido in busses." It also is likely that tho decision will bo made on tho merit of the question and not oil prejudice A defense day foat performed by the telephone com panies tho country over which aro connected with the Boll system demonstrated tho fur-reaching servico which tho tclcpliono could bo mudo to render in national emer gency. Tho story is told in tho curront number of the Pacific Telephone company magazine. Nineteen thou sand miles of lelepleone circuit wero brought into focus at the "national capital and operated as a single unit. Generals in cliargo of defenso day activities at four widely separated army corps centers wero kept in direct communicittion with Washington. Tin's 10,000-mile tele phono circuit was tapped in 18 cities to enablo as many radio stations to pick up and broadcast the proceedings. Towns and cities wore called up from Washington which were scattered over the onlire country from coast to coafit, and tho entire demonstration wont off without a hitch. It was a marvellous exhibition of what tho telephono may bo expected to do in time of war. The" fact thnt Eugene has a cash balanco of better than $22.1,000 would seem to bo a pretty fair indication that there lias been good judgment in tho recent admin istration of tho city's financial affairs. Can nnv Oro gon city mnke n better financial showing? Anyway, Astoria saw tho Shenandoah. For the rest of us in Oregon sho was n ship that passed in tho night.

Onapter 37. The wsrm vivid impresalon that Peter was somewhere nesr llugered in Leah's thoughts. She could not rid bi-r uiind of the memory of that fa miliar form which she bad glimpsed briefly through tho Utile' French bak ery window. It haunted her and she could not quit.- forgive herself for not going insido and giving her nilud the benefit of relief. She reasonrd with herself that It couldn't havo been Peter hut if she had only satisfied herself, tho lurking uncertainty of it would hnvo faded und would not be tormcutiug her now. An uneasiness settled upon her, and with it a sad lonely longing. Un expectedly and vividly over-powering, the desire to see Peter would eluli-b at her heart. The hopeless impossibil ity of it crushed her spirits. She be lieved sue had killed Peter's big, won- lerful love in her blind selfishness. Whatever the futuro might hold for her, it never could bring back Poter's strong comforting arms snd a place in his great heart. The cold reality of this robbed the future of all promise. The reckonings nf fame nod success were quite devoid of interest now. Yet Instead of a hopeless Inertia creeping Into lash's hesrt, there sremed to be a hrenthless waiting, a sort of excited expectancy possessing her. It wns indefinable, even to l.snh. She hoped it was Just her old pride and Insatiable love of an adventurous future which ws. urging her on. And she took heart at the possibility and threw herself into her work with re newed energy and determination. For a few days things went along' better, lah's splrlta seemed sudden ly braver. She endeavored to put more punch Into her acting. The happy smile which Mr. McVlure had referred to, seemed eoroi-f back to SlBT. Then snMnly Leah felt as If the light had gone out of evervthing. 8K found no comfort or satiafactlon In her work. She was waiting-waiting tensely and breathlessly for some thing else. H wn not feme or suc cess that .he longed for. hut lore Peter's love. And It was (bis t.t was lurking, spirit-like, around her and filling her Leart with a nervous agitation and burning ueBirc. Leah's spirits sagged, and with them her acting and that vivacious exuberance which had played so large a part in ber rapid success upon the screen. She felt the strain upon her nerves and Its Ineaenpnble dead ening of her vitality. No motter how she tried to rally spirits, she knew thnt nothing could ever matter to ber now but Peter and his lost love. Go ing on waa Just hopeless but there was nothing else to do. "I've killed the one preclons thing in sll ths world," Leah cried with an guish, " love, a big. soul-deep love thnt I whs too blind to see or under stand." Hut there was no going back, for Leah. She could not ask for that which she had once thrown away ns worthless. There was no question in her mind but what Peter had ceased to love her. Her pride could not let her crawl to him. And besides, she believed that If she were to go back snd seek forgiveness," she would only find s hesrt turned cold and loveless. Peter might forgive, yea, but that was not what her soul cried out for. Love is like costly china; It ran be mended but ths break will always show snd the cracks will mar Its beauty snd spoil its worth. When s heart is broken sometimes lo.e slips silently through the rent and leaves (he heart hollow snd cold like s soul without mercy. Leah did not want that. She could not find happiness and surcease for the burning passion of ber heart in Peter's dead lore. Desdl Peter's love? How blind poor Lesh was even yet I She thought that she had brokrn Peter'a big. honest besrt and poured out the faith and love which hal been hers, hut she had only urged It forward with soul stir ring pasalnn. Peter's love waa a mar velous combination of childlike sensi tiveness sud bouodleea fidelity. He could be easily wounded but bia reso lute faith la those he loved was un conquerable. That is ths difference between a big love and a little one. There waa no middle ground, no half measures for Peter'a love when he loved, ho loved always aed forever. Tomorrow.

Of the numerous reasons for this favor on the part of the most experienced and conservative of investors, probably the most important is the unexcelled stability of the utility industries. In no year since its beginning has the electric power industry failed to show an increase in business. Total annual gross earnings now are approximately $1,300, 000,000, and it is estimated that in the next ten years this figure will double. In ten years total production of gas has increased 100; in the same period the use of gas for industrial purposes increased 1 ,000. Mountain States Power Co. Sound Investing Is Not Spending
