The reasons for this attitude of our strong men toward public of fee are not far to seek. In the first place official compensation is absurd ly disproportioned to the service re- quired and the responsibility assumed.

IT MUST PAY YOU

Unless the advertisers who use this newspaper can make their business announcements of profit to you they cannot hope to make them of profit to them selves.
 They must please you to make a customer of you.
 Naturally they are going to make their offerings as attrac tive as possible in their adver- tisements.
 But more than that they are going to make good on their promises.
 Indeed, the wise advertiser tries to do a little better than he promises.
 It is to your own interest and to the advantage of your pocket book to read the advertising in a representative newspaper like The Bulletin.
 Glance over the announcements today and see how fully they cover every human want.

Helps himself to a smile" as a cores
pondent from Brandt in the Toronto
Herald, puts it. And the more i'm
possible and improbable the news is
the broader the smile. So, when your
correspondent heard from good author
ity that Astoria would in a neal future
be moved to an imaginary junction, it
is a wonder you only smiled. A hearty
laugh would have been more appro-
pirate. 1t certainly is laughable. The
moving of Astoria two miles to the
north, would, we agree be a great ad-
vantage to the farmers near Brandt,
as it would ave them four miles on
every trip to town, while hauling grain.
For some reason, the Brandt farmers
do haul their grain to Astoria. For
the business people this moving would
undoubtedly be less advantageous.
However you need not worry. Astoria
will not be moved, at least not by any
such agency as Andrew Erickson.
Landslides and earthquakes are not
common here, so chances are that
Astoria will be a flourishing town and
business-place long after anybody
takes any great interest in whether

POLES WATCHING STRIFE FOR CHANCE
 OF INDIFFERENCE

In it's various statements issued to the press, the Polish National Council of America. has defined the attitude of the Poles toward the war in Eu- rope.
 The Polish National Council in America is a recently organized fed eration of various Polish organizations and parishes which are scattered over the whole United States. In these parishes it establishes citizenship schools and organizes Polish scouts. It conducts it's own press bureau for the dissemination of truthful news about Poles, which also maintain re- lations with similar bureaus in Lon don, Paris, Rome and Switzerland.
 The Polish National Council has issued a, warning to the Poles now re- siding or sojournfng in the United States, urging them strongly not to respon to the calls for reservists of the three powers (Russia, Germany and Austria-Hungary which had dis membered Poland, nor to send any money to Europe, although country men there are compelled to serve in the armies of each of the three coun- tries, and even frequently to engage in battles with their own countrymen on their native soil.
 Poles cannot syInpathize with any of the three powers, and the dreadful wrongs and prosecutions, which have been inflicted on them Tor more than 8, hundred years both by the Germans and the Russian, make it impossible for them to wish success to either of these powers. Poles wish, however, that the struggle will exhaust and weaken them to such an extent as to make it possible for a great war to break out for the independence of the various Slavic peoples who are op- pressed by the Mongolian rule of Russia as we'll as by the despotic and exter1ninating rule of Germany.
 It is both the desire and the hope of Poles that the outcome of the Euro pean war may be a war similar to the Revolutionary war in the American colonies at the end of the eighteenth century, a war for the liberation of the Slavic nations, to which besides 25,00O,O00 Poles also belong 3O,OOO,- 900 Ruthenians, well as Czechs, Servians, Greats and Bu1garians, etc
 If such a war were as successful as the celebrated war of the American coIonists, it would be followed by a coalition of the Slavic nations each with it's own government, which would constitute the possible security of universal peace and lead to the ul- timate disarmament of Europe, to- ward which the peoples are striving but thus far have been successfully thwarted by their monarchfaI gov ernments.
