St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1921-04-15

AhS W. yOuuo AldholNl " ONOl dBI
Co. who have assumed charge.
Mr.. Weimer has had sixteen years
of continuous service in St. Johns,
and during that time has made
many warm friends, who extends
their very best wishes for unbound
ed success in whatever he next un-
dertakes. He has always been a
good booster for St. Johns and he
does not contemplate removing
from the place he has resided in so
long and likes so well. The new
firm will no doubt continue TO
serve the public faithfully and well.
When a man exhibits extraor-
binary intelligence and progres.
siveness the world looks up to
him as a man among men. His
father comes in for a good share
of credit for having produced
such a son. The mother is gen.
orally forgotten. Women usual.
ly are, where credit is to be Civ.
en-. And yet il is the mother
who brings him into the world
who is his constant teacher
from infancy To maturity who
starts him on the road which he
travels with such distinction and
success. Women have never
been accorded their just dues in
this world. IL will be many
years before they ever receive
them, although each one brings
us a little closer TO the goal.
Man is quick TO take but slow to
give. Woman waits for her
own. Exchange.
That \ street improvement
campaign in st. Johns is long
past due is fully evidenced by a
trip over our highways. Great
improvement could be done in n
temporary manner by the aid of
a scraper and roller on the dirt
surfaced streets. Jersey and
Lombard streets are in poor con.
dition. There are many chuck
holes and they are growing lar
ger and more plentiful. Some of
our back streets would be dis
grace for a country road. lt il
not pleasant TO publicly harp on
the condition of our streets. but
unless publicity is given there
seems little likelihood Of getting
results. IL is a condition that
must be faced. and surely should
no longer be ignored. II we get |
nothing more accomplished in n |
civic way than vOod streets this
summer we will have secured
much. Let us be up and doing.
