Rogers to succeed Pliny E. Snodgrass, the directors of the First National Bank are making a choice which -will tind wide approval in Lane county and Eugene. Mr. Rogers is not only an ex ceptionally able banker but a splendid citizen. He brings to his new work a fine concoption of what a bank presi dent can do and what a bank can do for its community, The choice is really of great importance to the com munity. Banks and bankers stand in intimate relation to the welfare of the people they serve. It is important that they be interested and friendly. It is important that they have not only sound judgment but courageous vision of the future of business and industry. This is particularly true when a community stands on the eve of important developments as we stand now in Lane county and Eugene. Mr. Rogers is a man whose personality and record both inspire confidence. Never has there been anything arrogant or "high hat" about him. The humblest person finds him interested and friendly. His excellent native judgment rests on accurate knowledge of his community, lie has courage whioh rests on sincere belief in the future of this part of Oregon. President Rogers is a happy selection. lows: West of Willamette street on Mondays ai.d Thursdays; east of Wil lamette street on Tuesdays and Fri days; Wednesday, College IliU and i alrmount. . . W.

THE HILL ROAD. rriHE Siuslaw Oar, published at Florence, calls atten tion to the necessity of completing the improvements or the road over the bier Mapleton hill and down the North Fork even though it now Boems likely that there will be actual work on the state highway down the Biu slaw river this summer. The point ib well taken. J It will take at least two years to complete the jrrade of the new river road. In the meantime the road over the Mapleton hill whioh is being improved by the county with forest aid offers a practicable all-year route to the Uoast country. It can be completed this summer with proper cooperation. Its new grades and curves when covered with rock will be reasonably safe in all weather, Furthermore the North Fork valley which it tnps is an unusually rich country and the road will .be much used even after the mam mirhway is completed. But the main thine is to cret some passable road to the Lane county ooast as soon ns possible. Western Lane has been out off so long that the rest of the county can take the nsic of being a bat over-generous. BUSINESS RESPONDS. TT is far too early for detailed predictions about 1929, but there is a prood deal of evidence of a now confi donee in business that will mean much for Drosperitv, The election of Herbert Hoover, tho response from South America to his good will ovortures, tho outlook for more stable trading relations with the world genorally have had their effect on business tho country over. In the East the approach of the great Ford industries to normal production is a tremendous factor. And while the competition between General Motors (with the new Chevrolet) and Ford will tie keen, the chancres which General Motors has been making to meet Ford have stimulated a long line of industries. Though it is still hard to tell when Congress will pro vido tho expected farm relief and what that rolief will bo when it comes, farmors are bound to have a bettor year in 1929 if tho new activity in industry continues for this activity of itsear will improve the market for farm products. Here in tho Northwest, tho spirit of optimism is also quite apparent. Most noticeable is tho now courage in the lumbering industry and its nlliod industries. Bettor production control has been established. But improve industrial conditions and ncrncuHural conditions in th Middle "West have already toned up the markets for western woods products. And tho huge Boulder Dam enterprise is almost sure to have good results on western lumber market. Tho man who looks for 1929 to bo a 'boomM year is apt to be disappointed. Let's hope no boom develops, jjui uio nrsi year uniier noover is apt to prove, exco tional confidence in his constructive, 1'nr-sightod leadt ship.

There is no method at nrea- ent known that can in a few min utes make a man of eighty years of age grow In appearance like a man of twenty-five. , It must be remembered in trans- ! porting a aland from one animal tn another that the life of the gland depends upon two factors. The first ia nourishment from the blood and lymph, and the second ia nerve stim ulation. It is u sun lly po-ihl for, a trnnsplsnted gland to obtain enf- , ficient nourishment to keep alive for a limited time, but it is almost in variably true that the transplanted elands have been absorbed and en tirely disappear before one or two year have elnped. There is much hope dietetlcally for prolonging youth. The key prob nbly lies iu some special balancing of the mineral elements of foods. 1'otHisium, for instance, ia believed to he a protective element against ninny parnsite. nnd fungus growths, while sodium acts as an agent to keep the salts of lime and mag nesium dissolved. In Its absence these are precipitated Into the tissues. Much can be accomp!ihcd by Hv ina on a carefully selected diet, adopting a youthful attitude of mind and ns.ng regular vigorous physical culture eiercisea. The idea that food may play are important part in warding off old age is not a new J.C.PENNEYC. 940-946 Willamette Street, Eugene, Oregon Blankets Several Weights and Qualities one.
