If the average life of a car be thre years, it seems possible that by 1921 we shall have on our highways a total of not less than 6,000,000 motor-vehicles, or one for every twenty inhab itants. This is about three times our present registration. In ten states the increase in five years has been four fold, fassaxhusctts registered one ve hicle for every 108 persons in 191C and one for every 37.4 in 1915. In 191C the population per car in Ohio wa; 149: today it is 277. To care for this traffic we have ir the United States about 2.125,000 miles of country ror.ds, not counting streets What mileage has been "improved" it is impossible to say, for the word has no standard. We arc probably safe in assuming that for a satisfac tory system n.ot less than 1.25O.O0C miles of road must still be improved. With the ever-growing traffic anc with the consequent demand for bet ter construction, the ultimate cost of this system will not fall short of $1, 000.000.000, and its construction will probably cover a period of not Icsf than forty , years. These figures dc not overstate the case. Many road? have been and will be built too nar row, too crooked, with excessivr grades and inadequate pavements These should be widened, straighten ed, refcraded, and repaved. They wir . also have to be provided with bridge' designed for the increasing weight o vehicles. However this may be, i' seems safe to say that we have a hi? job on our hands, and that if we are to plan for its execution we must do so in a big way. One would naturally look for ex perience to Europe. European condi tions and customs are' so differen" from ours that data derived from them are of but limited value. We must remember, too, thai they are ii a much more backward state of mo tor-vehicle development even if more advanced in road administration. . However much or little we ma-, take from them, we shall also have to consider our problem in the light ol what teems to be in store for us. Ex ADVERTISING CHARGES. .

Will MISFITS " Making Albany the best trading center in the state outride of Portland ought to be the ambition of the people of the city. - Whatever builds up the business of t!'C stores builds up the city. The average city is whatever its business houses make it. The life of a city centers around its stores. Meier & Frank, of Portland, arc known about as well as tiic city.

The weather man has played a shabby trick on us. 1 1 We have to take the days as they I come. The Willamette v.-llcy asks no odds of any place in the w-orld. when j the average for the year is considered. Speaking of weather advertisements, what is the matter of sunny Southern aliiornia. with its sun-kissed orch ards and winter tennis. This was writ ten just after reading a report of the streets of Los Angeles running tor rents, after a steady downpour of rain for about a week. Our little snow flurry was a jolly 4 SAVINGS DEPOSITS With the New Year come thcaglits of better times, of making more money than we did last year, and of saving more.
