I A Business Maxim “ A man is judged, not alone by the company he keeps, but by the manner in which he pays his bills. “ The fellow who produces a roll of bills and peels off the number required to meet an obliàgtion might formerly have created a favorable impression. Nowadays people are likely to wonder why he isn’t progressive enough to keep his money in bank and check it out as needed. How do you pay your bills? 4>i B a n k o f M oro — M oro, O regon Clever Musical Revue Coming • The coming attraction at the Moro Theatre Wednesday, August 11th, will he the “ Dancing Kewpie Dolls’’ a musical revue taken from all the different musical shows of the big eastern cities.
