A CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR ANNOUNCES HIMSELF THE morning's mail brings the following, signed by one, John A. Joffery, of Portland: 1 hereby offer myself n a candidalo for governor or l!te Blal.e of Oregon, upon the regular repuhliean ticket, subject to the decision of Iho lefjal vol era of aahl parly, in the lltHO )rl- mary election to be held therein. "If choeen aa chief executive of the alate of Oregon, I .''Pronilae my fellow cillzena of our lionui stale, that I will use ' all honorable nieuns within my power to promote the general welfare of our people and our state through the following pro- grain: "1. Abollah all comnilsaluna, nnd cany on by means cjf ' , Iho regular state officers only. "2. Jteduce the cost of our Htate governiuent at least 60 per cent, without -.nipalrliig its efficiency. And so on, and so on. Twelve "planks" are set forth in his "program," these first two are ample, though. Just when a whole lot of us were beginning to feel that the busi ness of running for important offices was being reduced to more sane and practical terms than ever before, this comes along and jolts our complacency. Back we go iiow, years and years, and our votes are solicited on the basis of ex travagant and amazing promises like the above. But, what difference does it, make, what does it mat ter? It is Mr. Jeffcry's right under the direct primary law, to be a candidate for governor, or for any other office, if he wants to. After all, under the circumstances, it is en tirely his affair. There is just this much in his favor, as long as there will be quite a number of "platforms" written this year, he has the jump on them because it will take a pretty long reach to overbid his opener of 50 per cent re duction in expenses. . o " Ticket sales for the chamber of commerce annua) meet ing Friday night have reached 150 and the committee is still working. This dinner promises to be a biff event and the amount of public interest in the work of the chamber as evidenced by the advance ticket sale predicts a success ful year, for it is public interest that makes the work of the chamber of commerce effective. .

Coupled with an udinininu-ulivu experience in the de partment, which bewail with Mr. I.ioover'B term, went a prae'.leal knowledge of the army that was acquired lu the American , Expeditionary l'orco. "The old Pluto, war and navy building, breathes n rovoreuce for tradition, Its steep, circular marble Htaii'H, IU highly varnitdiod dark oak woodwork, its battle-Hcarreil t'higa in gluna cases, .are all meinen toes of our past. "On the ceiling of (he secretary's waiting room a painted Mars in a chariot of war urges on his horse through u maze of gold and red rococo ornament, silk Htandards Jul front overy corner, while bearded funn el' secretaries glower in heavily gill friunes. "Into this collection ot national heirlooms, covered with the omber ih'hh or years, comes the new secretary like a breath from the open. To our heritage of lite past he brings a iui'sfiiku ol the prem-nt. The god of war looks strangely out of place in a horsediawn vehicle: the revolu tionary mortars appear much older by contrast, when this tall, active, new secretary enters the room." S. J. Wuoll'o lu the New York Times, Docember 22, 1029. Our Hoover chooses chtirming way Men who can work as if nt play. This Patrick Hurley he has found (That has a good old Irinh sound) Is like n cool, refreshing breeze I hat whistles through the forest trees, Or like a lowing herd of steers; He warms our hearts and strunycly cheers. We seem to see the open sky Out where the bunch-russ yrows so luh; And in his eyes are sunrise looks That no man ever caught in books; There's curious wonder in his face -It hints of windswept open space; A certain hopefulness that soars That tells of years in God's outdoors, I lis stories have n Lincoln tone Or still n farther Western one. There's prompt decision in his jaw He learned where men .were quick to draw - A school that made him shaip and keen And made him hate the thinj that's mean, A school to stir his Irish wit And crystali.e his native juit. These Hurley traits the times demand They're frank, foursquare, have strength to stand; They're not afraid of sun or rain. Have pluck to take their share of pain; They arc not shackled to the pust Suggest horizons fresh and vm!. Methinks this Hurley man will ;row Till all the world his face will know.

As a result of this work, extensive plans for cancer control are now being made by city authorities. The report shows that cancel clinics and hos pital beds are far belyw the needs of the com munity The city authorities have promised, not only a new hospital for this work, but also that twenty-six of the city hospital? shall carry caneei clinics. There will be increased facilities in cancer divisions in existing hospitals. A chief will b.e appointed to direct the entire work of cancer control lo the city. The Welfare Council reports that cancer Is growing steadily as a cause of death. In one year there have beer. 7,500 ,such deaths. One death out of ten is caused by cancer. There are at present 22,000 cases in the city. The figures 'show that for cancer patients only 838 hospital beds have been available in all the hospitals of the city. These beds are nearly all required for incurable cases. Yet all cancer oatients need hospital care at some unit : It is apparent that present facilities are most inadequate for existing conditions.

I do not think the letter culls for an answer, but my girl trie ml is go ing to answer it. KKADKH. YOU mean,, don't you, that your girl friend Is the one who re ceived the letter? Indeed, such a letter "calls for an answer." Just as fine and ehaimiug an answer na a girl can write.. To disregard such a kind and friendly letter as this evi dently was would bo boorish, and most unfortunate, too, for the girl would m 1b a one of the best op portunities In the world to estab lish a spirit of friendliness villi the mother of the family Into which ho is entering. Every move thai she mukes toward that family can he inevitably indicative ot her lack of both of these charm ing qualities. Since she has ac quired a new mother, who appar ently has a sense of innmiurs and specifically of what should he done to welcome a new daughter Into the family, she should show her appreciation by answering the let ter. When you consider how de lighted ami happy her fiance's mother will be it the does answer the letter and how disappointed she will be if her letter is disre garded, you will see that for her to answer it is reasoiiaMe. I'ut yourself iu the mother's place, dear girl. The fact that she has mvt her mother-in-law -to be only twice makes no difference. It would make no difference if she had never met her.
