In Keeping With the Big
Thought of the Day
The daily press reflects a sentiment throughout the nation
which clearly indicates a new condition.
Men are wanted everywhere. The work o f this war is being
carried on largely by those who never before have been in pub
lic office or in public work. Men who have been too busy, too
engrossed with their own tasks, are leaving their work toothers
and giving their time and ability to the cause which is ours,
youra, everybody’s.
It ia a time when politics in the ordinary sense must not be
considered. It calls for all the ability that can be mustered.
Oregon to be a successful part in this unit plan for the defense
t f Democracy must likewise place the thought of the times be
fore everything.
In another part of this paper appears the announcement of
L. J. Simpson as a cindidate for the nomination fo r Governor
on the Republican ticket. Mr. Simpson was urged to become a
candidate by his many friends in every part of the state, be
cause of his business record, his understanding and knowledge
of O reg'n's resources, industries and needs; because o f t,is pub-
llc-spiritedness. which of recent years has led
which have been more important to him than his own affairs.
L. J. Simpson is clearly Ihe man who can give
Oregon the adm inistration necessary to this plan
of National Efficiency.

What You Can I)o
SPRING IS
COMING
And now is the time to get
your tools in shape and, if
needed, repair them, for
time is money and hours
spent in fixing tools when
spring work begins is a loss
o f money, as labor is scarce
and, like tools, has gene up
in price. Therefore one man
must do all he can, for we
have a hard battle te fight
to win this war. So come in
and see your dealer in im

get things in shape.
