If you will, you can do much to reduce the high cost of living. Such things as coffee, tea, spices and many other small articles which you are purchasing in cans and packages may be bought in bulk. Do you not realize that you have to pay for the package, fancy labels, the wage of the packers as well as the fre'ght on the extra packing? We believe that people are gradually drifting back to the bulk custom, which we contend will materially reduce the high cost of living. Community Spirit. A n E x p lan atio n We are sorrv to be compelled to explain that, because of do mestic troubles and the worry of his personal finances, Mr. Dyer became quite ill last Sunday and Monday evening he left for the South. Mr. Dyer has a r.ister liv ing in Califoania and he doubt less felt that the best thing he could do to recuperate his health would be to go to her- We hope that he can be back with us in a few weeks, if not sooner. Local Boy D isapointed Walter Painter, the well known jitnev driver, could not pass the test for the aviation department of the U. S. Army as he expect ed, oweing to slight physical dis abilities. Mr. Painter explained the situation to the Herald man last night and made it clear that he felt the disappointment keen ly. He also feels the embarrass ment because he had made all ar ranged to go and had even told some of his friends goodbye. However, we feel sure that all of us will be glad to see Mr Painter back at his old position on the jitney. On Wednesday evening of this week the Kph worth League young people held a social in the Y. M. C. A. building that was a big success in every way. The evening was spent in playing a- musing „ames and in interesting contests of different kinds. Re freshments were also served. There were about 65 young peo ple present. ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦A* I Z Z t SSL 5 £ ¿ ¡.-u is right here with us, only we are not using it as we should. Did you see that string of spirit come into our city last Sat urday? An auto train of 42 cars, loaded with grogressive spirit and life, lead by a big brass band, paraden into our ci'y from Ashland, and you could see the “ pep” sticking out all over every face as they passed. Didn’t this make your blood travel a little faster? Didn’t you feel the desire to make your community a little more enthusiastic? Then why not put this enthusiasm to work so that it will do you and your community some good? If you cannot start something, follow someone who has started something. We are in receipt of a letter from C.C.Chap- Good Roods man, editor of the Oregon Voter which is a nonpartisan paper published in the interests of the Oregon voters, infomrng us that there will be a convention held in Portland, Saturday, April 14th, at which time all districts of Oregon are requested to send representatives to aid in per fecting a “fair-Jor-all” road building campaign. Every county and community should be represented there and every supporter of the measure is welcome to come and preent his views for and against the move, that the commis sion may be more familia*’ with each locaity and its needs, thereby being able to conduct the work in a more efficacious manner. The commission has stated that no undue favors will be granted any section or any paving company, therefore, we feel that, since Jackson County has expended more than the average amount on road building, we will be given due con sideration. In fact, we feel that the stretch of road from the California line to connect with the pavement at Ashland at Ashland will be among the first to be completed, as this is the gateway into Oregon from our sister state where more tourists visit than any other two states in the west, and it should be to the interest of the northern part of the state, as well as ours, to invite the sight-seeing public. With all these facts in view, we feel that every voter should work in the interests of better roads. If there should be any information you may desire relative to the workings of the commission or any phase of the measure, Mr. C. C. Chap man, Editor and Manager of the Oregon Voter, Portland, Oregon, will no doubt be pleased to assist you. —Hull. The Fundamental Cause on The World War And The Part ‘Ambition’' Plays in The Affairs of Men It would be well for those of us who have learned to abhor war and to see the insanity of such barbarism as a method of settling disdutes between nations, to study the meaning of these two words: “ ambition” and "aspintion.” In all so-called civilized nations such barbarism has beei done away with in so far as it affects in dividual parties in settling their disputes by law, yet when it comes i W I L L O W S P R IN G S I to the nations, disputes are still handled, in the last resort, by force of arms-murder!

The prevailing idea In the minds of the Jewish people was a leader that would lead to the overthrow of all foreign dominacy and their exultation to a world power. The evil spirit here. Is the spirit of the world beater as dis Wise Doc. played In the national Jewish characteristics, as well as in the character of many nations and men today All the grand possibilities of a world power and the grandeur of Wing a leader In such a movement, passed within the range of the mental vision of Jesus. The absorbing popular thought could not have escaped Him. He could not have had the human touch without giving some response to a thought possessing such a wide range of interest. The Third Temptation Is the most easily understood and possesses less of the mytertous than either of the preceeding ones. History is full of instances where men have bceu taken up into the moun tain of visions and have had unfolded to them, the panorama of world power and have felt the burning desire to rule and dominate and have lost the vis ion of the inner life and in the rush and roar that ambition produces they have failed to hear the still small voice of the ethical and spiritual and have sold out to the devil of lust and power.
