SUNDAY, DECEMBER IS, 1S25 NOTHING ELSE TO DO When a bond Issue Is I the 6f- fins, taxpayers often hesitate about , voting for?; it lest they lndrvae'tin- duly the burden of taxation that rests already upon their shoulders. There are no such considerations In the case of the refunding bond , latue that SjtIU be on the ballot day after tomorrow. : The city warrants which it l proposed to fund by means of these bonds must be paid in any event, but until they are paid they will draw Interest at six per cent. The bonds with which to fund them can be floated at four and a half per cent j The difference will rep resent a savins of about (S00 per month. It Is thus apparent that Instead of Increasing taxes the re funding bond Issue will lower them. But the savins in Interest is not all. If these floating warrants are ' not pald-r-or funded, as the finan ciers say the value of city war rants wiil depreciate because peo ple will be chary about accepting them. Instead of being worth 100 ' cents on 'the dollar they will de cline until they are worth perhaps only SO cents on the dollar. The time was In Eugene when city war rants dropped that low in value Then, as now, the budget had been exceeded and a large warrant -debt permitted to accumulate If that .happens the city will be able to buy only 80 cents worth for every dollar it spends. s''Tne dif ference, of course, will be repre sented by; higher costs of. city gov ernment and will be born by the taxpayer.! So once aga(n It appears that taxes will be Increased if the refunding bond Issue falls. It is too bad that this warrant debt was permitted to accumulate, for better management of the city's affairs would have prevented it. But all that is water over .the dam. What had happened has happened, and It Is a condition and ' not a theory that confronts us.' The war rants must be' paid in 'ariy-'ovent, and If they are not converted Into hnnrin At: a lower rate of interest. the cost Jof paying them will be much higher. - The only thing to do is to vote "yes." lij -, "GET THE.

(To the Editor) We read so much about the crime wave and tell of different events of murder rob beries and law breaking of every kind, but does any one take time to think of the good that is going on? If people do, there is no es timate made of if. A short time ago a bunch of high school boys from Cottage Grove performed some pranks or misdemeanor In Eugene. I had not taken note of It until I read their apology In the papor and was also told by one of the school faculty they had apologised In person Now this was a splendid thing for those young men to do and It took courage for them to do it. - It was a great Btcp toward . forming a noble character. - I saw no com mcnt In tho paper about this but had they broken jail there would have- been two or three Items about It. I am acquainted with several women who are raising children not their own. I was won ao auaintod with one women who' had raised soven, never having any of her own. In her obituary, this was scarcely montloned. I have been Bind to see how much has been snld about the waif left on tho door slop. Thla la as It should bo. Tho mun who slolo the cash register, gottlng about fifty dollars In money, received quite a bit of notorloty but as a gonorni rule the peoplo who take the little babe to raise and it is going to cost them two or three thousand dollars are hardly mentioned Tholr nenrcst neighbors novor sneak of It. I know one couple, he Is the son of a pioneer, who went to the orphan's home for a little one. It proved to be a delicate child and good care could nut aavn It, After it had left them they went back and got another one and are rais ing this little fellow a Joy to ovory one. - So often the divorcees get so much attention, covering half a page with their pictures, and air ing their trouble. Instead ut this why not the pictures of these mother who have so much of Olirln In their hearts they 'have liiken one f his little ones (or their own? 1 known . every m wntilil get fur move p'.ensuro out or Hits thun out of the divorcees. There are some of our public school teacher.- who are deserving of notice and limine nlong th!s Hue who have made their lives those of saerlf.ee, holding up high Ideals for our children, hut their name are never mentioned. Yet there Is no nobler work. There Is the mother who has de voted her tlmo to a large family, giving all that Is best anil sweet est. Now her ' llfo Is practically gone, she Is stooped and wrinkled, and otd. Hut oh, what a glorious crown Is wnttlng for her! Her name should go down with the greatest of heroines and yet our girls are not taught to reverence that mother hut will try to Imitate the movlo actress. Why? Pub licity! No matter how sacred the mar riage vows, you will hear them lightly say t won't stand for this or that. I'll lust get a divorce. Why? Publicity! Mothers, let's not have thla Tench them the sacredness of the vows they take "until death do us part." We acknowledge thorc are exceptional cases. I do not think the editor Is to blame for this trouble. We are the ones. The reporter must have news. He has only the streets to find It. Let us change this. If you know of a good deed write It in or send the particulars to the reporter. He will be glad to give you a good write-up. Let us keep our papers so full of good, whole some news there will be no room for sensational,-. We will keep only beautiful thoughts before our young people. Do away with the trashy magazine. Give them the worth while In Its place. Tho greater dreams we can help them create the greater they will become. Every great event that has ever taken place has first been someone's dream. Let us keep this in mind, have the great and good deeds before the public eye that the evil may sink from s'ght. , What we get our children to think about now. So they will be In the years to come The nation will be in their hands. LUCY M. LILES. . . NEWCOMER APPRAISES CITY Woodpile and Au'n Camp Are Held to Bo Unsightly EUGENE. Ore., Dec 13. (To the Editor) As a new comer who has decided to locate In the beau tiful city of Eugene I would like space enough In you paper, just to express some of the unsightly things that mar the beauty of the city. As It looks to a tourist or new comer when he first comes to our - city. They are made to wonder why such things are al lowed In the city. As the great stacks of cord-wood plied high, and in most places In residence districts; where fine -now bulla- lngs are going up. Then another bad feature is the rruto -camp that Is beingnllowed right in tne city, we nau to won der how the residents or r air- mount (which Is building and progressing so fast) can tolerate it. The municipal auto camp that Ib being run by the city is cer tainly a fine place, for It is clean, well kept, and gives a lastingT-ood Impression to the tourist. I understand that a man wants to establish a modern auto camp there, now let me tell you that Is certainly not the place for any. kind of an auto camp, it mo city council can just conceive what It means for the future Kugene. Tne Impression It gives to tourists and strangers, they certainly would not allow such to be established, right In the fine residence district of Falrmount. One can readily see that Eu gene is the coming city of the Willamette valley. So why not look at it as such. A NEW COMER. RESOLUTION IS DEFENDED Mr. ' Aaby Explains Trrstj-ament Signed by Lutheran Members EUGENE, Ore.. Dec. 9. (To the Editor)J In a report from a meet ing held In the Trinity Lutheran church of Eugene, according to the Morning Register of December 1, we read how certain parties, .mas querading under church cover, at tacked and vilified Mr. Edward Kjensbeck, an esteemed member of the Trinity Lutheran church, who on account ot sickness was not ablo to be present at the meeting Mon day evening. November 30, which was directed by Rev. J. A. E. Naess of Tacoma. To thug attack an old, vslckly and defenseless person ap- pears so repugnant that ths fair fname of the Trinity Lutheran church Is at stake. An Investiga tion ought to be made. It may be found that charity is a cover and brotherhood a cloak. i Tho following quotation from the secretary protem's Instruction to all the signers Is a mlsrepresen tatlon of actual facts. It reads thus: "The article In question, it was reported, pretended to be a resolution of the congregation and among other things, charged that the brotherhood of Eugene and the state with certain members of the congregation of the church' were carrying on Insidious propaganda," etc. The published resolution does not state that the "brotherhood of Eugene and the state, with certain members of the congregation of this church wore cnrrylng on 'Insid ious propaganda'," but It only states the following as? to this: "We are sorry to Indicate that an unfortunato and insidious propa ganda has been going on for some time within our beloved congrega tion. This propganda hag for Its purpose." etc. To construe a charge on such a misrepresenta tion and to demand nn apology looks almost like a "neck break ing" demand. 7f cortaln "brotherhood" parties "of Eugene nnd the stnto nnd the congregation" feel anxious. to In dicate, in somo way,- to tho public that they aro conducting nn "In sidious propaganda" thov are sure ly welcome to do so, If thoy so choose, hut In this caso It is con trary to the wording of tho reso lution to chnrge that such a state ment Is made In tho resolution. It Is furthermore reported that the article In question "pretends to be a resolution or the congrcga Hon," which chargo Is also con trary to the wording of the res olution which reads thus as to this "We the undersigned members of the Trinity Lutheran church ot Eu gene," etc. To report that the reso lution pretends to take In a greater scope than tho signers, looks to an unfortunate, If not a willful per version of the actual fart. No one of those who ' Interested needs to be ashiued or uh-ald lo defend their church homo tuul church organisation against an open or "Insidious propaganda," no matter how rank, disguised or "pious" It may appear. And no one should believe that such n nolilo act Is a "culpable- sin." To believe and nay ho Ik perversion of the moral standard mid uou a n,t k,.j Orange Is to play (out truth.

We ara not blind aa to the need of tba Knglleh language in our rongre vatlon aarvirea So far from thai, that we have given It our ehurrh work.

We be lieve that It will bo Injurlnua In varloua waya to dlepoee ot Ita property In part or be a whole. - 3. At the Vnlverelty of Oregon there 'are not "several hundred" Lutheran aiudenla as baa been broadcasted by one of the promoters of tha "atudent church." but only T are reported. With only tT Lutheran atudento of which only a nom inal fraction may be counted upon, the apparent need doe not eeem to be ao v-rf-n and the field looka to be rather limited. t. In the clly of Rugene and vlelnlty there are four Lutheran churches. Any one of lhaee ehurchee will, no doubt, af ford ample accommodatlona. and wel come any and all of theaa Lutknran Bin denta lo take part In the congrega tion eervlrea. ft la reasonable to oup poae that the students who art9 Inter eeied In church work and church aarv Icea would rather attend tbe reapectlve co-igregatlons than to be alone. . t. Tha espanaea to commence and to carry on the work among the few atu dents at the Oregon university will, no doubt, be undulv great In proportion to the limited field, and In view of tha ample facllltlea afforded the aludcme bv the varloua Lutheran churchea of thla clly. a. Since tho different avnoda and local congregatlona look npon the "tntereynod lcsl new movement" with mora or lean apprehension, why should the Trinity Lutheran church jeopardlso their or ganisation and . properly for a "new movement" of unknown quantity and problematic spirit even though It op. eraiA under tha name of Lutheran brotherhood? , 7. Since tho Trinity Lutheran church of Rugene. formerly served by Rev. o. Skllbred. haa been under' Iho Influenco and direction of tbe Lutheran brother hood spirit of Rugeno for tho laat two years, and since the Influence of that spirit and work has brought, the congre gallon Into a lamentable condition of deaaenalon. turmoil antf loss of mem bers, therefore be It resolved that wo the underalgned members ot anld rhureh, protest and pledge our undivided support for tha necessary rhangee nf tha con stitution, preservation and maintenance or our beloved congregation. - These resolutions are signed by fifty-one members of the church.

Koothall ns It Is plnyed these dttya Is rough nff, and sometimes there broken bones and blood often (lows. Why not make an Idol out of football players? Speaking of hero worshipers, nil wo have to do Is to luok over, Iho horderllne of our sister republic on the south if wo wish to see hero worshiping In perfection. Moxlciius of any prominence huvo first to go prominent part inlthrougt tho school of banditry and revolution, and show a real adrnt- ness for wur. ' murder nnd plllngn before the common people will even consider them as prospective lead ers. Pnnchn Villa was nn unlet, tered Indian, but' he was also a fear less and hettrtless murderer and bandit, and that fitted htm for tho position of lender of the republic, and be would have gullied that ex alted dlstlnctlqn but for the coup of the acting president who convinced Villa that It w.ts better for him to roll In wrnlth In peuce than to go to war. Handltry nnd revolution have made many heroes In Mexico, and although such things seem to be on the wano In our sister re public. I will assure you that all the Villas and lluertuasro not dead errors the border by a long shot. If we drop back Into our own beloved country and begin to study the history of our great men and tho cause o( their prominence In our republic, rising as many of them did from obscurity to placed of honor. w0 will find thut the wor ship ot human beings is very pre-1 valent. And like our Mexican brothers, wo give preference to our "bnttlo scarred" warriors. The cail to the highest office In the gift o,' the United Stales cltltenry has boon msde on tho mere fuct thut tho onu put to the forefront for the fran chise of the people has been a great warrior, fearless In battle, a gen eral that knew how to take advan tage of the situation and bring de feat to the enemy and achieve a greut victory where defeat seemed Inevitable. These seem to be rea sons for recommendations to high aim responsinie positions, so why not Ited Orange? Ills prowess aa a football player brought him Into the limelight of public admiration end why not show hint our lovo for his kind of sport by pulling him into some high office. Not hc.cn use he Is a trained executlvo but because he Is a favorite as a football player.. Ho Is our Idol and we want to show him our profound nilmirntlon and appreciation for his athletic skill. Some of the peo. pie of our Mlddlo West want to send him to tho senate, some to the governor's chair. Why not? Or better yet make hi mour presi dent. Surely a man that can play football as faultlessly . an Hed Orango could handle tho affairs of a great natnon like ours. Huro. .oaa Another field of activity from which the public selects Idols is the stago. If some one makes a hit as an actor or actress, the world bows at their feet In worship. It matters not how unclean their private lives have beon, they are worshiped as great stars of thel.' profession. Such escapades as that I ot Hoscoe A r buckle, and other dls- i graceful scenes enacted by the 1 I stars of the screen such as aro be . Ing uncovered and exposed so fre quently In Los Angeles and Holly wood, only seem to mnks the wor shiping public fawn the more on these "high lights" of tho "upper" underworld. Jt mutters not how many mothers' hearts have boon broken by tho loss from decent so ciety of her beautiful daughter, nor now many wives nnd husbands have been sacrificed on the altar of animal passion by these high lights, they are worshiped just the same. ' e I also notice that lied Grange Is commercializing his popularity with prlncoly profits. - In just fourteen days his popularity netted him $600,000. Let us see, that Is a little .tnoro than 135,000 a day i'raity ncn picKing. This Is all o.i his fame and name. And It Is made pouilhlo because the American peo plo go wild ovor somo bora. It Is no wondar that tho movie Industry can pay sucn princely salaries. Hayes Is payed a million; Chaplin a million. ' Other cnlehrltlos aro paid in proportion. Millions of tho people's good money going for hero worship, snd farmors and artisans and professional men thinking tnemseives lucky If they roach a ItO.OOO.a year proposition. Even such brilliancy as Is shown by our editors, ot our dully papers and their writers can't reach, or evon hope to reaoh, such heights In tho firmament of salary, not oven our 1ugcno nowspapor men. a a a Homo nf tho salaclousnens In the movies and on tho stage may be accounted for by what has been tho practico of the theatre peoplo over since tbe stago bncamo prom inent as a source of . diversion nnd amusement.
