Now we nro discussing peneo. Our troops nro coming homo. Tlio odgo ot our enthusiasm la wearing oft a little- bit, tho hurrahing Is dying out nil too uulckly and business and dol lars nro getting up ntenm.

Hn ha linn t lut CENTRAL OREGON -J AIMS ARE GAINED (Continued from Pago 1,) Bprcad ot the- disease". "ln reviewing theso It Is Interesting to observe that tho method rolled on when tho epi demic first reached tho coast that Id, of closing schools, theatres and for bidding public gatherings Is rather generally abandoned, moro weight being placed on quarantlno nnd per sonal caro in avoiding exposure This would seem to bo the proper WRy to treat the situation. To shut down on tho normal, ordinary life ot a community is to cronto panic nnd fear, to destroy morale, and so to make easier tho spread ot tho dis ease. In explaining his action in not enforcing a "ban" in Now York, tho city health commissioner said: "I felt that ono of ray prlmo duties was to keep this city from going mad on tho subject' ot Influenza. My aim was to prevent panic, hysteria, men tal disturbance, nnd thus to protect tho public from the condition of mind that la itself predisposes to physical ills. I attempted to main tain tho moralo ot New York city. I wanted pcoplo to be ablo to go about their business without constant fear and hysterical sense ot calamity. Of course the necessary warnings were Issued against crowds, etc, and tho necessary things were done." Whether it was becauso ot this action or becauso ot conditions pe culiar to Now York alone, the city death rate from Influenza w.as lower than' that o.f any ot- tho largo cities reached by tho epidemic. If tho dis ease Is coming back to Bend wo .may well consider this experience and tho new methods ot control before wo plunge blindly Into another shut down. . Waufy trS'pur rulijds iwlth memories or American service and sacrifice. Wo dare not forgot. Our service Is not ended. Our Job is not finished. In tlio momory ot tho deeds of tho valorous Yanks, subscribing our part of tho victory loan becomes rather a pleasuro than a stern duty and in tho meantimo let us help hold their victories by hold ing our liberty bonds. WORK FOR RETURNED SOLDIERS. With tho Commercial club offices regularly open and in charge of n manager or sccrutury with doflnlto hours, It occurs to us that it might be of assistance in finding work for roturncd soldiers. Tho club, last summor, made- an effort to provide farmers with necessary assistance in harvesting their crops. Tho under taking we now propose would bo lu lino. Just as that was, with tho duties belonging to any community In con nection with tho war. It tho fact is woll advertised that the club will uso its efforts to place soldiers in Jobs it should becomo a clearing house. Tho mon will come to it for Information ns to what is open for thom, and cmployors need ing help will leavo their names on file. When tho mon were leaving for tho war tho club led in several fare well parties. It should lead now in offering a welcomo home. quantities of stores gathered at Vladivostok when Russia was still our nlly. And possibly tho sondlng ot forces to Archangel nnd tho Mur mnn coast hn.it an. Impdrtant-benrlng otv tho rallltnty ftltuutlou whoa It seemed that Germany, might overrun IlUBsln and obtain food and other assistance from tho duped nnd de feated country. All that Is over now,' but our troops nro still thoro. In tho excitement ot moro Interest ing and mora Important avonts wo hnvo boon inclined to forgot them, Lot's think n llttlo ot them now nnd perhaps wo may bo nblo to got thorn started home. Looks a llttlo moro Ilka wintor. And yet spring is coming. Wo hnvo Just received our first gardon seed catalogue ARMY PROBLEM IS EMPHASIZED (Continued from Pago 1.) DELINQUENT TAX NOTICES. Now evidence ot tho faults in the Oregon Journal delinquent tax notlco law, adopted by tho peoplo at the last election, is showing up. AsTprovldod by tho law, tho sheriff Is now mailing notices ot delinquency . to thoso whoso nnmes appear on tho tax rolls as not having paid their 1917 taxes, One ot these notices, of which we have -personal knowl edge, received by the. record owner, covers property represented by four different Bales contracts. Two of tho lota listed in the notice havo been fully paid for and deeds have been delivered. In the case ot all four the buyer contracted to pay taxes. Undoubtedly, so far as the deeded lots are concerned, the buyers be lieve that the taxes are paid. Neither are men, wo happen to know, who leave their taxes unpaid. The few dollars Involved, 7 in ono case and $3.50 in the other, could be easily spared by either. They have, care lessly let tho taxes go, howevor, and will recelvo no notice ot tho delin quency until someone turns up with a tax tltlo unless the Individual to whom tho notlco was sent goes out ot bis way to tell them of tho situa tion. Hero Is a fine opportunity to slip around on the 6th of April and buy certificates of delinquency that would cost these owners a neat sum in in terest and penalties and bo a very profitable investment for a tax tltlo shark. la short, the new method of giving notice does not give notice in many eases to parties vitally interested. Were the delinquent list published, as heretofore, notice would bo given. In addition, wo are informed by the sheriff's office that the cost of mailing theso notices will be as rauch as, it not moro than, the cost of publishing (be delinquent list. And this cost is being paid from tho general fund Instead of by tho delin quent. We wonder if theso faults in tho law plcaso the Journal.

THE GOVERNOR'S ADDRESS. Governor Withycombe's address to the legislature Is an able piece of work and shows tho result ot closo study ot tho probloms discussed. Tho various recommendations for legislation aro well considered, the financial proposals sound. Oregon is fortunato In having kept in the governor's chair a man with tho ability and sound common sense of James Wltbycombe. Central Orogon got what it wanted at tho Irrigation and reconstruction congresses lost week Indorsement of tho Slnnot bill, of tho Deschutes project and of nld for the completion of tho Tumalo project. With the whole section united on theso meas ures, and the samo activity shown to ward getting results that marked tho steps already taken, we ought to go a long way toward tho goal, On each star on a service flag representing a man in tho army or navy why not placo a colored circle when he has returned and been given his old Job? Then tho whole story will bo told. We'll bet that tho Now York firm that printed 67 tons ot paper monoy for the Bolshovlkl government took its pay In something moro substantial. tho immonso wealth ot Oregon, In natural resources, declaring that tho situation 'demand a strong merchant marine, "mannged by Oregon mon nnd manned by Orogonlans." Kays Tax Limitation Wrong. Tho governor u'rgod tho legislature to petition cougrcss for tho construc tion of n largo number of ships, for chnrtor to men In const states on terms enabling (hem to compote successfully with any shipper In tho world. Reiterating h i s "conscientious conviction that tho C per cent, tax limitation is wrong In principle, ns it restricts legitimate stato activities In periods ot unusual emergencies," tho governor declared the Oregon financial situation is not hopeless, however. As ono big saving ho rec ommended that all state aid for tho industrial accident commission bo suspended and that tho comlmlsslon tncet Its administrative expenses 'from Its accumulated surplusl'hls would save $080,000 in two years, and if tho omorgcncyjclauso wero attached to tho law, making it effec tive February 1, ?150,000addltlonal could be saved, " Constabulary Recommended. Tho establishment of a state con stabulary of from 10 to 1C mon was recommonded. Hit advocated tho contlnuanco of tho Oregon National Guard. i Wlthycombo invited a careful examination Into tho affairs of tho stato penitentiary. Ho suggested repealing tho law which prohibits tho ealo of prlson-mndo goods' In competition with free labor. That a law bo enacted authoriz ing tho stato highway commission to construct a uniform system of road signs along all tho main high ways ot tho state, was another rec ommendation. Tho expenso ot tho work nccordlug to tho suggestion of the governor, would bo met by the automobllo registration 'fees. Tho exccutlvo commouded tho work which is being dono by tho Insuranco and corporation depart ments, the highway commission and tho stato fair board. on nnd prevented. So ho has tho runner wear spiked abocs which tnku hold ot tho ground and refuse to slldo back cvon n froctlon of an Inch. Life Is. ft rnco. You havo to keep tohjat ;n protly lively clip If you nro ever Rolng to gut nnywheroi and tho easiest thing to do when' you begin to slip la to fall in tho mud. Tho moral la "Don't Slip." Don't let yourself slip. Slipping Is waste, nnd wnsto takes a thousand forms. Thoro is wusto of tlmo, food, monoy, proporty nnd health -Micro Is tho wnsto thnt arises from recklessly throwing nwny nnd tho wnsto that results from falluro to bo on tho ground and prepared nt tho moment of opportunity. Thoro Is no such thing as getting tho moat out ot life unless waste Is eliminated. What la tho tost of wasto? Any thing thnt has value nnd which is allowed to slip away wlthou bring Ins equal or greater valuo lu return, Is wasted. What Is the teat of ThrlftT Anything that has n valuo or tho possibility of value, and which la cither saved or so expended as to bring (greater valuo In return, fur nishes mi exnmplo ot Thrift. Yes, thoro Is Thrift both In spend ing nnd In saving It Is a question of good manngemont common sense. Out with tho balance sheut. then, on February Third National Thrift day lot us seo whether we aro progressing, and how wo can progress faster. That Is tho purpose and Idoa of tho day fa atop Mm leaks, to mako plans nnd'to put plans Into action. FUNERAL IS HELD FOR MRS. ELDRIDGE crease lu compensation of water miintorH.
