WORK TO BUY
Empire’s “Buy to Work—Work
C to OLUMBIA
Buy” campaign is working! Enthusiastic
reports from all over the territory have fulfilled
advance predictions that this year’s campaign
would exceed all previous efforts, according to
Geo. L. Baker, manager of Columbia Empire In
dustries, Inc.
Typical of the enthusiasm with which business
leaders have received the “buy-products-of-this-
area” drive are the remarks of E. B. MacNaugh-
ton, President of the First National Bank of
Portland. Mr. MacNaughton says: “I like this
Columbia Empire Industries’ idea of the way to
create opportunity. To take stock of our manu
facturing, lumbering and farming assets; to test
the worth of our production by actual purchase,
cannot do otherwise than bring the realization
that only through such a sensible procedure can
we hasten solid and substantial expansion. With-
out this needed expansion, how else can we
create opportunity for additional employment?”
Mr. Baker, who has traveled throughout most
of the area since the campaign began, April 1st,
reports that merchants are tying in with this
year’s effort better than ever before. Floor dis
plays of Northwest products, special advertising
to call attention to featured Columbia Empire
items and other means have been used to give
added impetus to consumption.
,
Working with Baker on the campaign is a gen
eral committee, of which R. B. (“Army”) Am
brose, president of Columbia Empire Industries,
Inc., is chairman. Mrs. Jess A. Diyman is in
charge of organizing women’s participation.
Newspapers, radio stations, speakers before
luncheon clubs, organizations and special
groups, displays, and printed matter are all be
ing employed to drive home the importance of
buying products of the Columbia Empire. The
campaign will be continued until April 10th.
In this one week you have only sampled the
fine products of the Columbia Empire.
In
one week you have started the snowball of
prosperous employment rolling. So, remem
ber that we who are WORKERS and BUYERS are
the creators of WORK and OPPORTUNITY.
Let's multiply this last week by fifty-
two. As long as our products of the Colum
bia Empire have merit - as long as they
produce happiness and employment for us,
let's give them first and permanent con
sideration. We have found the truth - "WE
MUST BUY TO WORK - and WE
MUST WORK TO BUY."
A s k : IS IT PRODUCED IN
THE COLUMBIA EMPIRE?

In the spiritual realm, where the real

Editorial opinions as seen

agree with the policy of The
Gate City Jounral.
The Spineless “Yes" Man
We don’t have a lot ol regard for
the fellow who attempts to so o.-der
his life that he will have no enem
ies. and no one will ever take ex
ception to his views. Such a person
as a rule, doesn't stand for much be
cause he has to take one position
with one group and another position
with another. He is unable to be
himself because no individual ever
lived whose beliefs fitted Into those
of every one else. If such an indi
vidual did exist he would be without
individuality, without any definite
character of his own. If there is
anything more insipid than a wishy
washy man who Is everything to
everybody we don’t know what It
is. We prefer the individual who
has opinions of his own, though they
may differ from our own, and who
has the stuff in him to stand up
for them even though he loses the
questionable friendship of small yes
men.—The Emmett (Idaho) Messen
ger.
Dairymen Progressive
Dairymen have made a wise move
in deciding to organize here. The
record of such cooperative and
betterment associations In all lines
of agriculture Is such that the bene
fits cannot be questioned.
Josephine county Is particularly
well suited to the raising of fine
cattle with the attendant result of
more profit to the dairyman. A
long range program of herd im
provement will return to members

money and time.
It is on such progressiveness on
the part of our farmers that Joseph

fullest extent.—Grants Pass Bulle
tin.
Get Good Seed
In view of the fact that several
gardeners around Wilder had the
sad experience last season of getting
hold of a poor quality of seed. Is
would be a good idea for those who
desire to escape the loss of both
money and time from this source to
exert a little more care when pur

minate Is bad enough, but when the
loss of time that was devoted to the
cultivation of them Is also taken in
to consideration, it Is found to be
no little Item. The disappointment,
too. Is great, since it is usually too
late to plant effectively after it is
discovered that the original plant
ing is not going to bring satisfactory
results. The man who sells you
seed is expected to know beyond
doubt if the varities are adapted
to the soil and climate of this sec
tion. As a rule, he does know and
he carries only that kind. For that
reason it is advisable to purchase of
a reputable dealer, to get only test
ed varieties, and not to buy just
because they are priced a few cents
cheaper than the best.—Wilder (Ida
