just as well decide to remain in the
background for in the nature of
things, it is impossible that it can
ever amount to much. There has
got to be co-operation to build np. If
the bees did not work together we
would never have the perfect honey
comb and you cannot have the per
fect town without harmony of effort.
All this has been general in its aim,
but if you wish to make it particular
and applvit to any one town, it will
do no harm and may do some good.

It is getting so with the many disast
ers on sea ami land that it is unsafe to
travel and one is never sure when lie
starts out that he will arrive at the
journey end ill safety. Wrecks on the
sea seem the most horrifying on ac
count of the great loss of life and this
wreck of the Columbia off the North
era cost of California has been no ex
ception. Out of two hundred passing
ers nearly seventy were drowned.
This terrible percentage is what makes
the heart sick a ml makes one fearful
of the sea, but on the other hand the
per ceutage of deaths in railroal
wrecks is higher than on water. Wh- i
one considers the width of the Pacific
Ocean it would seem almost impossible
fur a collision tn occur. The size nt'
the ship measured in feet anil the

income to the family without any effort
on their part and to for 09 yean the
descendants of H. L. Pittock will be
assured of a princely iucome no matter
what their business ability. ThiB trans
action may occur in Grants Pass for
it is wonderful the changes that often
come to a town in the short space of
time of even a decade and tho young
man of today can mane no Detter
provision for his old age than in the
investment of some of his savings in
real estate.
VACATION TIME.
Take these sultry aftcrnjojg in mid
summer and ones ambirio'is Itegin tr
lag under the heat and glare o' the r.r n.
It is then that one thinks of the cool
sea beach or th mountian spring in the
shade of mammoth trees and the long
ing to 1p there proves irresistible to
most of us. A certain amount of loaf-
ing is necessary if we wish to preserve
our health and the vacation habit is
growing on the American people. Mach
inery has to have rest spells as we see
in the case of the rail roads where the
engines are changed at division points
and new ones sent out. The human body
is a more delicate mechanism than the
latest model from the Baldwin Works
and it needs its rest spell too. The .
great trouble with the average vaca- '
tion is that the person taking it prac
tically exhausts himself before he starts
in and then he proceeds to make hard
work out of the vacation. It some-
timesroojiiircs a great deal of ability
to do nothing, especially in an artistic
manner. The most stimulating vaca
tion is where there is an entire change
of scene and occupation. A person
liting on the sea shore is rested and,
refreshed by going to tho mountains
and vice versa. The individual who
does mental work of any sort; teach
ing school, keeping books etc. gets out
and does some physical labor which
clears up the dusty corner of the brain.
And the man who lives on the farm
wants to go to the city and (dioot the
chutes and take in nil the rattle and
hustle of the city for his vacation.
Everything for variety.
Oft times the right people do not get
tho acation that they deserve. The
tired mother is often left nt homo a
sacrifice to her maternal love and vour
dear hubby has to swelter hi the heat
to pay for the clam chowder at the
seaside hotel f,,r his frivolous wife.
