THE THREE ORDERS.
"'Three kinds and degrees ot men there le in the world, according to
Orlontnl Wisdom those who Advance, thoso who Stand Still, nnd thoso
who Fall Behind. In their ortler tho first are tho Gainers, tho second the
Nonentities (or Non-Doors) and tho third aro tho Losers.
The Gainers aro governed by Active Intelligence; tho Nonentities by
Hesitation nnd -Doubt; tho Losers by Folly.
Tho Gainers see, decide nnd undertake; tho Nonentities look, grow
fearful and wait; tho Losers seo not, consider not, and are overwhelmed.
Tho Gainers know that one cannot reap If ono will uot sow; tho Non
entities know that also, but daro not decide when to sow; tho Losers neith
er reap nor sow, but scatter to the winds.
The Gainers seek for opportunities nnd make use of them; tho Non
entities hear, opportunity kirocklng at the door, but fear to' bid It enter:
tho Losers aro embraced by opportunity, but are not conscious of It.
The Gainers know that they must risk to win; tho Nonentities would
llko to win, but have not tho courage to risk; the Losers, beguiled by Folly,
fancy they win when they lose.
The Gainers see merit afar and make haste to overtake It; tho Nonen
tities are In dread of tho worth of their elbows; tho Losers trample on
benefits In their purblind chase after phantoms.
Tho Gainers aro they who unfold tho power of a Nation; tho Nonen-.
titles are they who do nothing to help tho unfolding; tho Losers are the
muck In the highway of Progress.
The Gainers cast their nets in the chanco to find fish In tho waters;
the Nonentities fear to mako cast lest their meshes bo broken by fish they
seo swimming; tho Losprs make mock both of nets and of fishes.
Tho. Gainers adventure seme part of their thrift In things to produco
further riches; tho Nonentities plno for Increase of possession, yet tremblo
to put forth a farthing; the Losers scramble for moonbeams In sand heaps.
The' Gainers are tho children of Wisdom; tho Nonontltles tho children
of Fear; tho Losers tho children of Death.
Three klnda and degrees of mon there be in tho world tho Daring,
the Fearful, tho Foolish and tho heavens were made for tho first, pur
gatory for tho second and hell for tho third.
Moral Be Daring, Be a Booster, join the Medford Commercial Club
and thereby boost yourself.
THE MERCHANTS'
Tho annunl report of tho Merchants association shows a saving during
tho past six months of approximately J5000 to merchants of Medford as
the result of concerted action In cutting out worthless advertising grafts.
The merchant Is always a prey to the advertising fakir. Ne'er-do-wells

payroll, but by sinootn taiK mauco tne
las appropriation in wormiess scnemes mat nring mm no reauus; -as a
result, money that should be left in town or go to build up legitimate busi
ness is carried sway by tho gvaftcr and tho community as well as tho mer
chant is that much poorer.
This year the association has
cutting out the calendar graft. Heretofore from $8000 to $15,000 a year
has 'been spent by business men in calendars, fancy and otherwise, but
always costly, which brought them no returns.
Such steps arc to be commended. It leaves the merchants free to
spend advertising appropriations in a legltimato way, where results are
forthcoming, and If they do not so spend it, at Ie&st the money remains
in the city.
In various other ways the Merchants' association has proved beneficial,
not only to the members, but to the community, and it is hoped tho coming
year will seo it increase In membership and in power.
MEDFORD SETS THE PACE.
For a city of S000 souls to petition Jor the paving of ten additional
miles of streets is indeed a splendid record, and It Is doubtful If any other
city In the world, certainly not In the northwest, can equal it. Ten miles
of streets equals 176 blocks and represents an outlay of more than a quar
ter of a million dollars.
No other city would attempt It, let alono carry It to a successful ter
mination, but Medford will, for such is Medford.
This winter has demonstrated the valuo of pavement. The three miles
of hard surface streets have proved an object lesson of far-reaching Influ
ence, and people who wero at first skeptical aro now most enthusiastic for
extending them. By 1911 Medford will have at least fifteen miles of paved
streets. Again has Medford led tho way.
At C o'clock last evening, there wore four hundred and seventy-nine
members on tho roll of tho Medford Commercial club. You have until
Tuesday night to mako It six hundred. Get Into tho band wagon and ride.

fraudulent voting for Green. This dl
