WHAT The Ouard believes to b the largest single newspaper advertisement ever published in Oregon iii .us in its edition of today. Mr. George 0. Stanley i.-s the advertiser. His announcement occupies all of a lo-page section. ' It amounts to 128 full columns. Its uggrcgato in column inches is 2816. - - Air, Stanley is a keen, successful business man who believes in the power and value of newspaper adver tising, because he has demonstrated themin his own experience, liis present, advertisement neraias nis re 1 entry into the business life of Eugene: He was formerly in the grocery business here and in recent years has been engaged in a similar line in Southern California, His operations have prospered, and the basis of that pros perity, aside from the intrinsic merit of his business methods, always has been newspaper advertising. The opinion of such a man is the strongest kind of a testi monial to tha very essential value and relation of ad vertising to business. The successful business man of today is tho man who advertises his bnsines regularly in his home newspapers. There is no other medium whoBe 'tips does or oan begin to approach the valuo that home-newspaper advertising carries. Persistent, regular advertising ia the kind that gives the maximum of reaulta. William Wrigley, Jr, made himself a multi millionaire through his early recognition of this fact and by his constant conduct in accordance therewith. Asked by a fellow passenger on a railroad train recently why, having established the demand for his products, he did not now relax hia advertising activity, he answered : "We are now traveling on this train at 40 miles an hour. "What would happen if they took away the engine t" The answer was a complete one. Of this edition o The Guard there have been printed and there are being distributed 13,700 copies. These in clude the regular paid daily circulation of slightly above 6200 copies, 100 copies which are printed daily for checking purposes and free distribution to employes, 6700 additional copies ordered by Mr. Stanley, eaoh and every one of which is being mailed by The Guard ' to a home within the Eugene trading radius, 500 copies to be distributed from the Stanley store and 200 copies for estimated street sales. It was in forecast of this very large circulation, as well as because of the Stanley advertisement of 16 pages and the large amount' of extra advertising from other equally enterprising Eu gene firms, great and small, that The Guard announced n few days ago and again yesterday that today's edition would mark a newspaper epoch in Eugene. We leave it to our advertising patrons and our subscribers' to sny whothcr or not the forecast has been justified. . Tlio Guard is not only a little, but very greatly, proud of the achievement represented by the production of this edition and its successful distribution. This prido is not so much in the direction of the effort as in tho splendid co-operation it has received from the work ers in its own establishment. Every man and woman in its every department has given to the' enterprise extra initiative, extra effort and extra hours of work, without which the result would have been impossible In an office of The Guard's limited equipment and staff and within the time' limit of a few days made necessary by the requirement of timeliness and spontaneity in the advertising copy from all sources. ' - In thanking all its patrons, as well as its own people, for the co-operation which has made- this edition pos sible, The Guard will say also that it hopes to continue to" be a builder in and of this community. Clarence Thompson, state treasury embezzler, seems to have "a way with him.' Not only did a friendly court parole him from the benoh following his first oonfession and plea of guilty, but when further alleged shortages against him wore discovered, state officials refused to prosecute anew. "Stick to a man as long as he is right and part with him when he goes wrong" is a quotation that quite apparently does not appeal to Mr. Thompson's friends in Salem officialdom. j Aamva we are to have summer eoncerts by the fine Odd follows band. Last year's brief series of concerts proved immensely popular. This season it is hoped t lengthen the periods during which concerts will be riven at regular Intervals. Already there are contributions to! the fund for' expenses of the enterprise. There should be more of them, and soon. Send your contribution to The Gnard. It will be acknowledged through The Guard's own columns and then turned over to the bond committee. IVonglos Fairbanks' birthday gift to his wife, Mary Fickford, was a lot of stuff for the gymnasium. Makes us think of the lady who, bnck in the days when there wero horses, liked to- ride and who gave her husband a sido-siulille for a Olrnstnias present. Dorothy Kllingson, who slew her mother, has been sent to nn insane asylum. If they would keep her there that punishment would bo adequate. The trouble is she will be out in a year or two, it events run true to their usual form in such cases. l'vorybotly will hope that tho illness of big, blunder ing vet niightv Habe Ruth is nothing serious and that ho will be knocking them over tho fence bv opening week' :.. .1. . 1.....

However the $4,000 shortage remaina an actuality. After Indictment, special night eeseion of court ia unexpectedly held, unknown to the public or to the state officials whoae funds were pilfered, admission of guilt made, a plea for mercy urged baaed upon state secur ing adrancea npon eaiary assign ments, two character witnesses heard, and a two yeare sentence in the penitentiary and a parole handed the betrayer of public trust as pun ishment. Where's the penalty J Why the secrecy? e e - THE QUARREL IN THE SHIP PING BOARD (New York World) The disagreement in the shipping board which baa brought on an open quarrel between a majority of four members and a minority of three is not a disagreement aa to the merits of two competing bids but a disagree ment as to whether either of those bids should hare been accepted. A majority consisting of Chairman O'Connor and Commisslonera Lissner, Hill and Haney argues that it was a wise move to sell to the Dollar Steam ship Line for $5,625,000 tire great passenger and cargo ships costing the American public more than $30,000, 000. The majority things that it ia a good thing "to get the government oat of the shipping business" and be lieves that It baa made a contract on "a guaranteed-aerrice plan." The minority of the commission, consisting of Commissioners Plum 'mer, Thompson and Admiral Benson, arguea against thla action on the ground: (1) that the "guaranteed Berries plan" la a guaranteed-serrlce plan for tire years only (2) that all of the ships aold ara at this moment operating under a managing operat or's agreement which brings in a profit to the government, and (3) that despite thla profit the shipa have been aold for less than 10 cents on tha dollar aa compared with what they cost the government. There la not the alightest disagree ment over facts in these two state menta of opposing rlewa. The ma jority admita everything the minor ity aays, but thlnka it has dona the country a good turn. 80 it insists. But to Tba World the objections ralaed by the minor ity ere convincing enough to require further examination of the bargain. Grant that it ia now the settled policy of the government to abandon public ly owned and managed shipping and to retire from this experiment in business: even so, what possible jus tification ia there for beginning that retirement by choosing ahlps which ara now actually operating at a profit to the government and selling those ships at any such figure aa 20 cents on tha dollar? The majority fnctlon of the ship ping board will hare a good deal of explaining to do before it convinces tha public that it acted wisely and be fore it aeea thla matter ended. e Una Forms on tha Right (Vancouver Columbian) A merry scramble for the post of minister of Siara is in prospect among Oregon editors and ax-editors.

Prov. 30: 4' THE EUQEN E HE NATIONAL SHRINE IS ASSURED National Cathedral of 8t. Peter and St. Paul to Rival Arlington National Cemetery By HARRY B. HUNT (NEA Service Writer) yAaSIUNGTOX, April 11. Burial in Arlington National Cemetery baa, for a generation, been regarded aa the crowning honor to a military life. There, nnder the gnnn of Ft. Slyer, overlooking the beautiful capi tal city just across the placid Poto mac, sleep the heroes, sung and un sung, of America's battles on land and sea. "The Sarins of America," Arling ton has been called. Great and humble alike, those who hare fought with gun and sword for American' ideals there share equally the enre and reverence of the government thfy served. General, admiral, private and Unknown Soldier rest side by side in those green-clad hills. But a rival to Arlington as an his toric resting place, where the future will look for the great of America, may have appeared In the National Cathedral of Sts. Peter and Paul. Only a small portion of this im mense edifice has as yet been com pleted. It stands on Mt. St. Albans, the highest spot In the District of Columbia. There, in a crypt under Bethlehem chapel, the body of Wood row Wilson was placed following his death oue year ago. - After the Wilson burial in the Na tional Cathedral, the suggestion was made that here, in this edifice, might be developed the "Westminster Ab bey' of America. Now the borly of Admiral George Dewey, hero of Manila Pay, has been transferred from Arlington to a crypt provided by his widow under the floor of the cathedral. Thus begins the development of a new "National Shrine that seems certain, as the years pass, to lure tho feet of an increasing number of patriotic pilgrims visiting in Wash ington.

GUARD LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT f SWXKS' I tm I Goto DO V ; JT ALL QVEf? y4CjAJN J the disposition of the Dewey mausol eum In Arlington; one of the most dignified and impressive sepulchera in the great cemetery. Built on an emi nence near tha northeast corner of the old Lee estate, it faces almost directly across the river the great Lincoln Memorial, while to the left, across the swelling hills, stands the old Lee homestead, the fighting mast of the battleship Maine and the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Much has been said of late about tho cost of "overhead." "Ooverhead" is blamed for the high price of every thing we eat, wear or use. Materials don't cost so much, we are told, "hut It's the overhead." A striking example of this "over head expense" ia presented in the cost of putting a new aluminum tip on the steeple of the inuin building ut Georgetown university. - The aluminum tip cost $1.75. But the charge of the steeplejack who put it in place was $175! Congress abolished Washington's bathing beach, but gave the capital a first-class fishing pond in its place. For several years a bathing beach, for white bathers, had been main tained on the tidal basin, in Potomac park. Then the colored citizens of tho city demanded a beach where they, too, might disport themselves on hot summer days. A beach across the basin was sug gested nnd approved and work had actually started when loud protests arose. All sorts of reasons were giv en as to why the new beach should not be permitted and social and civic pressure was brought to bear on the powers that be. . x As an easy way out, congress, in-' stead of approving the new beach, abolished the old. And now the basin is to be stocked with big mouth bass, bream, crappies and other game fish. courtyard near a bubbling fountain and a status of cupid. More than one romance of the great white way has begun in a tete-a-tete under that tree. Vi Westover Court was designed by mous Albany in London, a place male fumous by the authors wbo livd there, among them Byron, Macau lay, TbicKerty and Gladstone. Westover Court' might havt becom such a literary shrine in America. While living there Owen Johnson wrote "Stover at Yale" and other I" a fortification. Ihi explosion was yarns ot concrete to dual. That, peace iroaty. frctn of th. VLh " " novels. McElbert Moore, playwright, wrote the books of "Innocent Eyes" and "Plain Jane," successful musical comedies. Captain Harry Bruno wrote "Aveling of the Airmail!' there. Other dasluDg young romanticists :md popular figures have lived at the Westover, among them Dick Blythe, aviator, and Lowell Sherman, Alan Dwan, Monttgue Lo.ro and other a of the screen and ' stage. Unattached newspapermen and artists called the place home. In that group wero Oe sare, P. A. Hutchinson, Captain Brock and L. V. Updegraff. There, too, Frank IaForge compos ed many of his melodies. It was head quarters for many noted--army, navy and air service officers- during the war. Service throughout the house was rendered by Japanese who wore san dals so their steps would not disturb late sleepers. Hero was everything that a cranky bachelor could ask. Peggy and Anne McGraw, the tele phone operators, have answered 50l telephone calls a day. "It has almost always been, a feminine voice on the incoming wire," says Peggy. . It took a squad of police to disperse a crowd in the Pennsylvania stution yesterday. Hundreds thronged about a gate to catch glimpse of three rookies who had been caught aftr deserting from the armyPersons wh. wouldn't stop to watch a fire stood for many minutes to catch a glinipac of three men in chains. v Due to the many mechanical coin collecting devices used here this city has become a mecca for coin collect ors. One old fellow visits the bira line terminal each day and begs the con ductors to exchange dimes for dol lars. After he has as many dines at he can carry he sits on a bench on Riverside drive, puts the dimes jn rowa upon a paper and scrutinizes each one with a microscope in the hope Of finding coins valuable "for their old date or peculiar coinage. He obtains as much aa $5 or 10 for some of them and is reported to hare made enough to buy two apartment houses. As the World Wags Py FRANK FAY EDDT IF EASTER meant sincere as piration to resurrect the Christ spirit of serving God rather than mammon; resurrection of his' ideal of loving service to ill men, friends and fo alike, in place of envious distrust ami wily cheating; how much nobler would our Cbristanity appear. THE CHRIST of dogma and Titual-ir-m is overmuch celebrated. It Is tra ditional ccclwiastJcalism which has its dsy on Raster. Pomp and ceremonial, exaltation of the Son of Ood, for getfulness of the Sm of Man, char acterises Easter more and mora In our civilization already swollen and blatant in in tenia of. power and smirched with the cruelties of selfish Industrialism. THE SYMBOLISM connected with the celebration of the resinrrectton mytb. Indeed serves aa a vehicle for a genuine mysticism which ia ths re deeming glory of Christian practice, the Jewel within tha casket. Symbols wa mutt have. All expression of our selves ia necessarily in symbol. Sym bols serva as and, at the same time limit ui. Our thoughts must be clo thed in yniboiic forms or we remain mote. But there is a danger in ajra holism, the danger that w become servants of our symbols, dependent npon them tnsfesd of nslng them as mere servants of our mind, the alpha bet of ezpreision, trer inadequate tools. JESUS was aa intrusion, a prophet of discord, disturbing and anarchistic for his own sge. He is not less aa to day in the midst of our strained and omits worship offered in his same.

Tax Caretaker of Lane Voices View EUGENE, Ore., April 11. (To the Editor.) As Caretaker of Lane County's tax fields I am pleased to report the annual crop aa being some what above normal. the country at large representing a rate increase over the previous year of about 17 per cent while the Eugene lone which may be regarded the garden spot of the county for tax culture, shows a gain of J2.3 per cent over the rate of Inst year and a lot of fertilizer is now being broadcasted by generous and interested parties preparatory for the annual bond plas ter festival to be held on April 15th, all of which promises stimulation for renewed vigor and encouragement for a bumper crop next year. It 1b ru mored, however, that members of the fertilizing club are somewhat appre hensive and alarmed over the large number of "Anti-confUcatlon Bugs" prevelcnt in the barren stubble field after the abundant tax harvest just garnered and 1 would venture the xuggeation that if bond plaster is to bo again applied this season it should be spread very thinly to avoid its becoming a hot bed for the germina tion of tha desperate "Turn Worm," a creature that ia reputed to have played havoc in fields of oppression in ancient days. The propitious and extensive plans for an unusually heavy application of bond plaster in the Eugene section that waa Inaugurated last year were somewhat blighted on account ot a "Campbell" getting into the field and trampling things up a bit. However, foinparing the total rule in Eugene this year with that of twelve years ago we find an increase of 05.0 per cunt which Is encouraging to those who msy feel that our tax rate is inadequate. t l'ossibly tax growing conditions might be materially augmented by our .Caretaker giving ear to the pub lished worth and sales of properties of our optimistic citiiens, but be hesitates leat the enrichment might be over done, for some rude conser vatives s re already pointing to a sec tion in the western part of the coun ty where, it must be admitted, the crop became so rank that it "lodged" and there has not been a harvest for several years. Whatever may be the finaTs at Ea gene'a Annual Bond fc'ete next Wed nesday in the contest between the two factions known es the "Kky-Limits" snd the "Ease-Cpi,'' here is hoping on the part of your humble- aervsnt that in the event of the former being victorious they will not continue the farcical display of chivalry by at tempting to pin the badge of honor on the county assesior when bia ex cellency, the tax gatherer, issues the inevitable call for shekels with which to pay the fiddler.
