THE BUSINESS KEN HAVE A DUTY It is regretted that more of Condon's tuines men were not present at the meetiv.ar rf the Commercial Oluh Wednesday night when rH. legislation was discussed. The rop-wd John Day highway is of more im oortance to this town than any thing that his ever been brought up since Condon became a town and the business men should realize this and take a proper interest The meeting was thoroughly representative but in taking up such a plan every man should add prestige to the our town? Give a little thought to the. number of vacant lots that are now given over to weeds, tin cans and rubbish generally. Then 'calculate the possibilities of thess vacant lots and see what a little energy would accomplish. Gardens on these lots will cut down materially the high cost of living that is heard discussed on all sides. Foodstuffs raised en these lots will yield ns much nourishment s if bouvtht from somebody else ar.d will cost much le.'s. Tluis a litt'o energy will reduce the high cost of living and it also covers another im portant phase. An hour or two of such work is nature's finest tonic. It will dissipate the worst ci-se of grouch; it is a perfect liver regulator, cures dyspepsia, is an excellent remedy for rheu matism and makes you feel that life is really worth living. While we thus conserve our health and lighten the strain on our income meeting by his presence and show that he has the welfare o'j there will be another important the town at heart. I thing accomplished we w ill beautify the town. Such a plan TOWN IMPROVEMENT j w511 (l wy with many of the The qjetion of using idle city J weeds and a large part of the lands for food pro luc'.ion is just ca,,s and rubbish and make Con now engaging the atten'ion of don look more ,ike what il really the people of England, as it has isa Ptod business town and a already done those of Germany, ood place to live. Don't over and 'efforts are being made to ,ook tne fact ,hat t strangers conserve this uotential source of iine appearance counts more than wealth. It is estimated thtt in the city of L-mdon alone there are 14 000 acres of idle land, cioable of pr.-wlucing annual!'.- iryi worth of fooistufTs per acre! a. amazing to:t! of 7 anything else. What do you think about it? THE ONLY LOGICAL WAY Eijjht hurdrel feet lower at ,0X,OQO'Shp hiuhest rVmt than any yearly. I other highway across east- This item of ne-vs should carry I ern Orecon, IS" mile shorter. e.sier and cheaper by far to build, much more passable dur ing the winter month?, an outlet to a rich section of the state that has no transportation facilities now are a few of the reasons that the proposed John Day high way should be designated as the state highway for eastern Ore gon. The man who never had a chance never took one. A town improvement commit tee would be a decidedly sensible and profitable thing for this town. If, in its squabble over the state highwavs and the stata road money, the legitlature fails to recognize the merits of the John Day highway, it will be another big link in thechain that will finally abolish the legislature altogether. Paper is no longer high. It is higher, come. The "est" is yet to The fe'Iow who boasts of get ting something for nothing us ually finds that it.is worth just what he gave for it You know that the John Day highway is the logical route for the connecting link between the Columbia highway and the Lincoln highway. Write to your representative at Salem and tell him or them to gee busy along that line. Judge people by what they do, net by what you unthinking think they do, or what others say they do.
