Gentlemen:
At a recent meeting Of our
Greenwood Business League, a
committee of five gentlemen, my
self included, were appointed by
the President to devise ways and
means for getting up a big Get
Acquainted" Barbecue.
We expect to have the most
representative crowd at this bar
becue that Greenwood has ever
entertained. A suitable program
will be arranged to make it at
tractive for visitors.
It has just occurred to me that
we might arrange this barbecue

your officers in getting acquaint-
ed with some of the representa-
tive planters and business men of
the Greenwood territory.
Before fixing the date / should
be glad to have you advise me
when you expect to have your
representatives here. We could
arrange to have the barbecue
about the time you started your
first building.
We are aware that it is very
necessary to get the planters in
terested in your manufacturing
industry and to feel that your
concern is new industry in this
section, and that your success is
our success.

TOLERANCE OF THE OTHER FELLOW

The other fellow is awful bother He is as contrary
and Independent of your reasoning as the weather You
run counter to him everywhere you 60 He adds to the
injury by refusing to recognize your superiority and
right to be favored.
1t is ntolerable to you to see him in front Of you in
the line at the post office window. And at the ntersec
ton of streets it is humilang to have to sacken your
speed and give him the right of way in passing.
If you ungraciOusy mbend far as to listen to his
opnions-co chanses are he will want to
talk just when you have something you want to say
AS matter of course, he isn't always the same fell
low but whoever he is he is always the other fellow
The worst thing about him is that there are so many
Of him.
But, hold on
Put your finger to your bugng forehead and try to
think minute 1t may be that he is just as tired of you
you are of him. Your pet ideas may seem to him non
sense, He may have lots of grievances against YOU
Talk things over with the other fellow He is as much
o human being as you are He is affected by heat and
cold love and hate food and hunger riches and poverty
toll and rest just about as you are yourself What is
good bad for you or dstastefu to you likely to be
good or bad or distastefu to him too
In one respect the other fellow is like savings bank
which is not of much interest to you until you have put
some of your treasure in it.
His religion his politics. his views regarding every
thing are all wrong because they differ from yours? He
is boor because he does not recognize your nfabty
of judgment? Tut tut! child He is Just as likely to be
right you are His aims and his motives are apt to
be Just as high as yours are.
The other fellow is bully good fellow, if you are

Why Charge Overhead
Expense To Buyer !
DAILY Astorian.)

The fight against independent paving
concerns, here, in Eugene and elsewhere
is easily understood when one considers
the statement recently made by w. c.
Archambcau, former treasurer for the
bitulithic people. Archambeau said that
first class bitulithic pavement can be
laid at profit for 90 cents a yard. The
property owner pay $l70, $3.50 and
$500.
The overhead expenses of the btu.
lithic people must be at least so per
cent. Take their operations in this city.
for instance, For the past three years
one man has been on the ground prac-
tically all the time. Recently there has
been two men. Every trip these men
make to Astoria adds to the cost of the
pavement their employers lay should
they get the contract The Morning As.
toron is not against bitulithic or any
other pavement Of the bituithic family.
They are all practically the same thing.
we want to see a good pavement laid
with the overhead expenses eliminated.
