The state is no different than an in- dividual. It can not spend money that it doesn’t have. It is true that a state can sometimes borrow money when pri- ( vate persons cannot, but considering the last attempt of the state ( to borrow it is not likely that another attempt would be received । with enthusiasm by investors.

YOU’RE RIGHT. . . there’s one thing that stands out about Chesterfield. That is . . . tb^n Mikür. This means Chesterfields aren’t harsh. It means they’re not strong or heavy. Early in the day or late at night you’ll find that Chesterfields are alwayt pleasing. They are mild i AGAINST CONSOLIDATION. One litle matter that is of importance in regard to the conapH- , dation of the two schools of higher education in Oregon is the fact ( that if the present bill is favorably acted upon it would move the , schools to the smaller town of the two This is of considerable । importance when it is remembered that a large percentage of the students of the schools are at least partly self supporting ■ | Many more students could find work to do in a city of 20.000 than in a city of a third that! size. Ne .rly everyone wdl agree that the sort of students who are willing, and often forced, to work their way thr-ugh college do more with their education than those who get their finances through the bounty of parents. The consoli dation wou d necessarily decrease this class of students. What’s more they taste better, too. That’s it... milder and better taste. These are the pro out standing merits of Chesterfield. Plus ... a third important advantage. Chester fields are as pure as the water you drink ... as pure as science can make them. ä ------- o------ Poets may sing of the beauty of June weather and its wonder- ous effect on plant life, but for sherman county folks it is often a hectic tim i of the y ar Then, if ever, comes the discouraging re- ports that the wheat will not make anything after all the spruag hoping and believing. The reason these pessimistic reports gain Sa ready credence is all too often they are true. In any case June is always filled with rumors and on, who ventures to boast of his prospects will have a dozen to remind him not to count his sac s until after harvest, which is, alter all, good advice —■ —o------ - we advise anyo ne to read the platforms of the national par. ties They are representative of a class of literature tha t wes or. iginally made famous by the noted oracle at Delphi.
