Address before the Corvallls Commer

Ily Herbert Cuthbert, Executive Sec
retary, Pacific Northwest Tourist As
sociation. The prosperity of a state as a whole
depends upon the prosperity of each In
dividual part of It. It la not sufficient
that the larger cities should Increase In
population and In the volume of busi
ness transacted In thesa. It Is of equal.
f not greater, Importance that every
aiaall community Increase In population
and tn production and ln general business.
If every rural community can pro
duce more, can procure more settlers,
more residents, It will mean more local
prosperity, a greater buying power, and
will add to the wholesale business and
general commerce of the larger cities.
hence the entire state will advance and
prosper.
It is the aim of the Pacific Northwest
Tourist Association to develop every
portion of the state from within as well
as from without. There Is no better
way of doing this than to seek to cre
ate a forward movement In every com
munity, no matter how small It may be.
The starting point for such a move
ent is to have every person already in
the smaller communities determine to
stick to his owu home town, to grow
up with It, and to become a booster for
it. It is better to be a prominent citl
sen In your own community than to
lose your Identity In a big city. It we
can eradicate from the minds of the
residents, and particularly of the chll
dren, the Idea that there are greater
opportunities, and that it Is pleasanter
to live in a large city than in their own
town, the foundation of the future
prosperity of that town Is already laid.
There Is a grave and fundamental
danger not only to the well being of the
smaller communities, but to the state
as a whole. If this attitude of mind Is
not changed, a danger so great that
when It is seriously considered. It Is
appalling.
During my trip east I heard one
speaker make the statement that ninety
years ago the population of the United
States In the largest cities was 414 per
cent of the whole, and ti per cent In
the smaller ctles and rural districts.
Twenty years ago the largest cities had
grown to 33 per cent, while today they
have DO per cent It Is estimated that
f this rate of exodus from the country
district into the larger cities Is main
tained, in twenty years 80 per cent of
the entire population will be In the lar
ger cities, leaving the rural towns and
districts almost without population.
He also stated that In a public school
in one of the smaller cities all the boys
and girls who contemplated remaining
there always were asked to put up their
hands. Fifteen per cent of them did.
He asked those who contemplated at
some future time leaving their home
and district to live In the larger cities
to raise their hands, and 85 per cent of
them raised their hands.
He also stated that the business of
these rural districts, through the activ
ities of the mail order houses, was go
ing to the larger cities not in their own
state, but to other states of the Union,
In the same proportion.
Our association wishes to Inaugurate
a campaign throughout this state and
the state of Washington that will stop
this exodus of population ; ..f I, js,.
nss, and I believe that n- , .an be
applied which will effetf... . , ti. s
I have already suggtst' i f.nnt.
and thai is by having the i v l- them
selves become more loal n. i l,;gge,
boosters for their home tuna. I sug
gest that they. In turn, ' meme a.
campaign in their towi.n Im a i leaner,
a more attractive, a more up-to-date
town, and that they be the .-; v.nsors for
a development movement p h as they
have never yet attempted, that they!
endeavor at the same tin.- to make It j
attractive to the young in ie and the
children, to try and teat h them that
there Is no better place in which to live
and in which to enjoy life than wltb
their parents and amongst their friends
in their own home town and district.
I am going to take the lu.eity of sug
gesting some of the mea;.s by which
this can he done.
If there is not a live commercial or
ganisation or other public body in ex
istence, let the cltisens 1 have referred
to Immediately see that there is one.
If the town has only three or four hun
dred inhabitants let the business men.
the clergymen, the school teachers and
others get together and form a repre
sentative committee that will take up
the work which usually falls to a com
mercial organisation, ai.d to go further
than that, to commence a movement to
make that town aa far as they possibly
can, the most attractive in the Btate.
There are many ways which will sug
gest themselves to such a committee.
I might mention Just two or three. The
painting of their homes and stores that
require paint, the cleaning up of every
yard and every vacant lot which needs
it, the straightening of all fences that
are good and the renewing of all fences
that are dilapidated and an eyesore, the
planting of every front yard with
shrubs or flowers, and the offering of
small prizes for the bent improvement
that has been made duilng the year In
all matters of this klhl.
The committee might appoint an Ar
bor Day and have the schools declare a
holiday of that day by which the citi
zent and children aa a whole can plant
trees along the streetn and the high
ways running through the town and in
beautifying public and semi-public
places.
I don't claim that this can be done
all in one year, but it can be started,
and If this progressive movement is
carried on, it will not be long before
that town Is entirely changed and haa
become a thing of beauty and a delight
to those who live In It, and to those
who pass through it
Now, as to increasing the business of
that town. Let every Blore keeper
practically throw all his goods out on
the Bide walk, clean up his store, fix his
shelves and his show windows, paint
them, if necessary, and kalsomine thi
store, and then put them back In a sys
tematized and methodical manner so
that to his customers and to strangers
his store has taken on the appearance
and attractiveness of any store its size
in the larger cities.
Let him sell as far as he can at the
same price that the people would have
to pay elsewhere. Let him carry an up-to-date
line of goods .even though his
quantities may be very small, but
wherever he haa a small line of goods,
let him put the greatest possible stress
on the fact that he can procure in the
shortest possible time anything that he
does not happen to have in stock, just
as well as if the people themselves, and
much better In fact, ordered it from the
mall order house.
Wherever possible let the store keep
er put someone younger than himself,
or some other person, behind the coun
ter for as many hours as possible dur
ing the day and let him drive out
amongst the farmers and country resi
dents, make their acquaintance, tell
them that he has an up-to-date, attrac
tive store, that to buy from him means
the up-building of the community in
which they live, and that more prosper
ity In their community means more
prosperity for the people he Is calling

ness away to other centers, but see to

Now, as to making the town more de
sirable as a place In which to live for
the young people. Let this committee
invite a few of the most prominent wo
men in the town and district to form
one or more social clubs bjr which the
women may become acquainted with
each other, may Inaugurate social par
ties, teas, little dances, the dances
that are wholesome, In private homes
rather than In public halls, where the
children may be safe and may enjoy
friendships one with another, friend
ships which once formed may last a
lifetime, and which may do more than
anything else to keep them In their
home towns.
Let the whole community inaugurate
athletic sports, establish tennis courts,
bowling greens, baseball and football
grounds and have their youngsters

Just a wurd to the farmers of thes
communities. How many of their chll-
drerare looking forward to leaving j
home for the same cause I have men- j
tioned' I wish I could take some of'
them into the rural districts of England
where in many counties, such as Devon
shire, for instance, the country life Is
the most attractive of any life tn the
Old Country, where the homes are most
attractive and the children have their
own tennis courts, their own ponies and
are engaged by a small remuneration
to do their own particular work on the
farm within reasonable hours. There
is nothing that has destroyed country
life more than to make the children
work from daylight to dark without
any hope of remuneration, and without
any home amusements or recreation.
In these days of electricity, when by
clubbing together farmers that are
fairly close to each other may procure
electric light, in these days of the phon
ograph, when each home may have an
orchestra fur the little family dance,
tn these days of the automobile when
the whole family can run Into a city,
even twenty miles distant, to a picture
show or other amusement, in three
quarters of an hour's time, there should
be no difficulty in making community
life in the states of Oregon and Wash
ington, and In the province of Brltlsn
Columbia the most desirable and the
most attractive of any other life.
I have briefly sketched a few of the
things which might be done to develop
the home town and the, rural district
Many others will suggest themselves

The I'acific Northwest Tourist Asso
ciation is spending a small revenue,
compared with the objects for which It
exists, tn the most effective publicity
that is being carried on today In the
United States. It is attracting thous
ands of people every year, both by
automobile, by train and by steamship,
into Oregon, Washington and British
Columbia, It is for us to sell our states
while they are here, and there la no
better way of selling them than to Im
press upon our visitors the one truth
which we all believe, that there la no
other place in the United States or In
Canada in which life is so well worth
living as It is in Oregon, Washington
and British Columbia. If the ideas I
have ventured to submit to you are car

be more emphatic than it has ever been
before, and we will soon have a very
much larger population and a very
much increased prosperity throughout
this beautiful land of ours.

Pay Rolls and
Prosperity
Oregon uwils more and larger payrolls. Prosperity is a concrete
condition, not an abstract thought. It is created by the opportunity for
work, the investment of money in new ami enlargement of old projects,
the development of trade, the meeting of producer and consumer, the
exchange of labor for purchasing power.
The Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Company, representing a pay
roll of approximately $3,000,000 per year in Oregon, has reached a
point beyond which it cannot go with its present income. It has asked
for higher rates which will enable it to maintain its service, meet its
payroll obligations and earn a reasonable return upon its investment in
Oregon. If it obtains this it can carry on its construction program, of
fer more work in Oregon, enlarge its payrolls and take its proper part
in the progress of this state. If it cannot secure adequate rates it must
limit its expansion iu every way, abandon its plans for extensions and
lay off its construction crews.
The rates asked for will not work a hardship upon any individual:
they represent but a small increase per station over present rates, but
in the aggregate would permit the telephone company to continue to
fully serve the public, carry out its plans for the development of Ore
gon, and do its part in creating and maintaining the prosperity which is
essential to this state.
Adequate service is dependent upon adequate rates.
