"The Lord helps those who help themselves." That Isn't dignified enough to qual ify as a proverb, but It comes pretty near hitting the nail on the head. Half u dozen years ago some of us were sitting around stumps won dering if a railroad ever would como year vaat sums of money are spent for Christ mas gifts, much of It going to tho cities of the cast. This Is a tlmo when tho co-opera tion of people who llvo In the samol community should bo considered. No man Is independent. No man ran llvo unto 'himself alone. The mun icipal, county and state govern ments must bo maintained. Tho men who llvo here and who pay taxes here are entitled to the sup port of their neighbors.

Today's report that tho amount of tho state tax had been sot and' thnt Crook county's share had been fixed nt Bomo 31,000 comes about one week Into. Of courso It is news, huvlng happened today, but as a financial fact of any value Its possibilities wore exhausted when tho county court udjourncd after Having uocidcd on tho levy for next year. In tho samowny tho failure of ino puuo lax commission to an nounce tho vulud of tho county pub lic utilities, before- tho county bud get meeting, Is a matter of embar- nssment In tho county, and even tho city und Bchool district tux situa tion. Tho dllllculty arises throuch thn for tho community railroads, mills, provisions of law requiring budgets AN APPRECIATION AND A GREETING Today we carry our individual message of appreciation to each patron, old and new, of the R. M. Smith Clothing Company. . - '" You it is who have built this business made possible the steady, healthy' in-, crease which has placed us in the lead of all Central Oregon stores. And earnestly indeed do we thanjc you, striving to voice our gratitude, not merely in lightly uttered words, but in SERVICE, the three factors of which are value giving, promptness and courtesy, all combining to make the single worded platform 'of this popular store SATISFACTION. For we stand committed to spare no effort to make you feel that this is in truth your store that the safeguarding of your interests is our first concern.

We'ni gong lo get It Just as sure iih wo got the others. Fact Is, llend inn get almost anything In reason hIiii goes after. Ten yeais ago railroads und mills nnd county HcutH sounded liku foolish dreauiH. Indeed, our neighbors on the eiiHt culled them worse than that. Suppose now wo suggest street ears within the next ten years sny the next five? Does it sound foolish? Even ho, they will come Just as sure iih paved HtreetH and all tho other iippurtenauccH of metropolitan de velopment. CloHiir at hand, however, are other prizes for lleud to gain. The Stra liorn railroad project Is tho largest ami most Important of all. That is mining now, sure.
