In addition to its tunny important
economic advantages, whose dove
lopmcnt inevitably will make Bend
a large city, the town has natural en
dowments, perhaps today not re
garded as worth much in dollars and
cents, which should bo appreciated
fully and taken advantage of to the
utmost. Timber, mill sites, power.
wheat lands, all arc invaluable to
the building up of a city here. But
in applauding these it is well not to
discount nnoiner very rem osmjc
Bond's groat natural beauty. This
is of very real value. It will bring
hundreds of people here, and keej

hundreds here, just because Bend s
environment is so attractive and the
town so eminently "livable." Green
lawns, well kept streets, attractive
houses, all are additions to the
nature-made scenery that cannot be
tn i
overestimated in importance
these tilings Bend has a splendid
start. By all means let the town
bend its energies to making even
more real its claim to the title of
"Bend, the Beautiful."
The organization of the Bend
Merchants' Protective Association
in n movft which well bears witness
" '-
to the progressiveness of local mer-'
chants. The credit organization,
operated upon a long established
plan which for years has been in
successful operation all over the
country', will be of very' real benefit
not only to ita members, who are
taking an ordinary and common
wnso method of advancing their
own interests, but to the entire buy-

Inasmuch ns the steel for the
Crooked River bridge, which Central
Oregonians for many moons have
been told "is on the way," but
which yet seems tardy in putting in
an appearance, it seems probable
that Uto railroad may not reach its
terminus here until late in the sum
mer, and in the meantime, what of
our alleged mail service? Is Bend
to continue to leave ita mail come
in by way of Shaniko, with great
needless delay and much inconven
ience, while a railroad is operating
a daily mail car to within fifty miles
"oi thw town?

That the dislike on the part of aoro
I pupils to attending school la a very
real and not a whimsical matter was
shown not long ago In two Instances
which were reported In tho public press
the one, a boy who hung himself in
) the bam rather than go to school; the
I other, a girl who took poison rather
1 thau endure Ihe ordeal. It may have
i been that due to enforced absence In
1 earlier years or slowness of mental
i operations they were far behind other
' scholars of rjual age ami suffered con
tinuous humiliation when forced to
measure up with them In tho class
' room. In any event, the Incidents cited
show very conclusively that there nre
not Infrequently case when It Is the
IKirt of wi-xlutn lu both ixtreuts and
teachers to nenulesce lu a pupil's de
sire to quit school ami luko up work ut
