Of all of the dif ferent view points on earth consid er, -the difficulty of being a small bo)' and being compelled lo have his point or view. True enough he li' compensated lo some extent by iftck of responsibility and carefree dnys but Just the same the job of being a small boy Is beset with numerous difficulties. Passing over the trouble of wnnt iug a lot of things one can't have; and touching not the facts regard ing the many things that are foi bltlden "because It Isn't good for you"; and not bothering v'.'.U the Mibjucl of what to do about the bigger boys who make niuci nb'le 'i times, let us puiiae .ere arid give a little thought 'o ihe dilemma a fellow of nino to iwtivo yeai-8 finds himself In when he Would like to have a little accurate and positive Information regarding this or that. Ho is not bothered concerning Items of geography or lristory or arithmetic or any of those things. Ho subconsciously knows that he HAS to leain those tilings sooner or later so ha lets them come In their natural course. "".The little questions of everyday living tiro tho bad oneB. Why does ho HAVE to do this or do lliat? (Pon't argue sonny.) Why can't ho slay up with the grown folks at night? Why can't ho sluy out and (JJay longer? Why Is this and vhy hi that? Then there are llltle per sonal mid embarrassing things Commonplace to grownups but new to his experience, and perplexing. JJow much of the things his ploy males tell him should he believe? 3ll of the puzzling things If listed hero would take pages, Tho point la that a sinul boy has problems, greut big confusing and perplexing qnestlons. Who shnll answer them? The boy knows who SHOULD an swer them he would like to talk licm over Willi his dnd. Ho Is ea.t x Tfy embarrassed so ho hates to talk to teacher. If he peslers the (JJder boys they are apt to have "fun" with him. He believes DAD & tho wisest and most trustworthy person on eurlh, but dad Is always UP busy.

Kdltor News-Itevlew; I take this opportunity to answer the charges preferred against me by the school Directors of Hoseburg District Number 4 and published In the Newa ltevicw oT Juno 4, 1930. The so-called facts aire either statements wllh hidden ' truths or entirely false. The charges prefer red against me were; 1. Mr. Oleman In tho opinion of Ihe board is not the man for the place. My answer Is, "Why?" The board has refused to over siato rea sons for Hitch an opinion lo mo or to commltioes of parents and citi zens who hnve called upon them ut various times. Since the board has not visited ihe school while in session it is obvious Unit they are unable to give reasons. 2. It was nnderslood that Mr. Oleinan was not to have another contract after the present one. I should like to ask by whom It was understood. Certainly not by mo. 3. Tho statement that I was giv en a contract each year after much discussion and hesitancy does not agree with statements mado to mo by Directors- Flnlay and Jackson. 4. The board slates that I visited each of them asking to be re-em-Ployed at the junior high school.

She has a lovely person ality and is liked by everyone. G. II. C. Gil. C: Of course Ihe lady would not take you or your in vitations seriously.

Fly away, little bird, , ' As fast as you can." Shadow Song. MIJ. Flor, Hanid. Yam and Knarf the shadow-children were gliding along In a boat. It wasn't an ordinary row-boat, although two men were rowing, and they weren't gliding along a lake or a stream. 'But What's That, Fatner?" Asked. Rolf No, my dears, they were in one of the canals of Venice and they were gliding along in a gondola. The shadow-ehildren, yon see, were on a trin 'round the world witli their masters and mistresses the nl.rhilfln.n One nt thn nice things about being a shadow Is that you go wherever vour master or mistress goes. They l;ad arrived in Venice and had gone for a rido around tho city in a gondola. Venice is curious. Instead of roadways it has canals. Naturally you can't ride from place to piece in a street-car or an automobile i Either you walk along the narrow I sidewalks or you go in a gon dola. In and out of the canals they glided, passing palaces, tall build ings, churches with tall steeples and houses of all kinds and shapes. Most of the houses had door ways right on tho canal, "so that If you stepped out of the door you stepped right into the canal," as Knarf remarked. "Oh, no; you take good care to wait for a boat," replied Hanid. "But suppose you were in a hurry?" "In that case you'd swim," put in Mij. At this moment the real-children, who hadn't paid any atten tion to the conversation of their shadows, uttered an exclamntion of surprise: "What is that?" they cried, pointing to a beautiful Come Into Now, I can remember when can nliiR meant burnt fingers and red hands, scorched cheeks and weary drawing feet perhaps a rubber would slip or a jar shoot off the table and what a mess! Canning nnd the open kettle method mis ery! Why even the cat moved to the neighbors when Auntie can ned! Then some woman who tired of canning martyrdom mayhap dis covered the cold pack method which evolved into the time and labor saving OVKN CANNING. Now that's nothing to be frighten ed about my dears! By the cold pack method is meant that method of canning which the jar is filled with uncooked fruit or vegetables and covered with boiling liquid water, syrup or Juice (meat, fruit or vegetables Juice) after which the jar is then placed in a receptable or oven, where it is surrounded by steam or heat as the case may be for a definite length of time and sterilization tnkes place. . Now, isn't that simple? That's one of Its advantages easy to do; another is that more canning may bo accomplished. Our mothers, bless 'em, considered a dozen or two jars a triumphant day's work wnile 50 to 75 jars turn-out, using this method leaves us energetic enough at the end of the day to see tne latest musi cal comedy. Then, too, It also te tains tho flavor.- shape and color of the food more and preserves it In Us natural state. It is more sure of killing germs and mold spores and is very successful with all the hard green vegetables which are usually a failure in the open ket tle or hot-pack method. The chief thing to remember is not to mix Instructions hut to stick to one set of rules and follow the time table.. Jars and Rubbers All types of jars may be used for oven canning. They must be clean free from tiny, little organisms which cause food spoilage. The lids must fit securely thus pre venting the entrance of similar in visible creatures. All Jars must be scalded. Merely place clean jars lu a kettle of cold water or rack or a cloth to prevent heat from cracking them. Heat, gradually un til boiling is reached. Let the wa ter boil about 15 minutes. Do nol remove until ready to use. In lift ing from hot water use a scalded spoon or other utensil. Don't trust your fingers! For goodness sake use new rubbers It's not ex tri igant -nay. sister! economi cal! Good rubbers are neither brit tle or spongy but are firm and elastic. Scald at least 11 minutes before using.- Naturally, we use the best sort of fruit, and of about the same grade ripeness other wise, some of the fruit Is hard, while other parts have become "mushy." Syrups for Fruits The type of syrup used will vary wllh the fruits, future use. and your sweet toolli.

Yam exclaimed. "And look at all the pigeons!" Sure enough the large square front of the church was crowded with pigeons. They now left the boat and walk ed around on the square. So bright and clear was the Run that the shadows (who always looked par ticularly sharp and brisk when the sun shone brightly) darted about from side to side like leaves in the wind. Flor stopped to admire the tow er that slood next to the church. I t was built of brick and rose straight up like an arrow. "What is It for?" he asked father. Unfortunately father didn't understand shadow-talk so he didn't answer. However, Flor's master, Rolf, asked the very same question an instant later and fath er replied: "That Is the cam panile." "But what's that, father?" "A campanile is a bell tower. U'av tn ui the tnn In A hell which I rings the hours. It Is culled cani i panile because the wo.d for bell in Italian Is campaua.

Around the children flocked the I pigeons, hungry and inquisitive, : Men sitting at little stands were selling seeds which father bought, giving them lo the children to scatter about. "1 want some, too!" urged Knarf. Hut no one heard him as the pigeons flocked closer and closer. So hungry and bold were they that they actually flew onto the children's wrists and pecked out of their open hands.

At this he grew very angry Indeed and sud denly making himself very large (as shadows can easily do) waved his arms about like huge, black wings and cried: "Whis-s-sht- Away flew the frightened pigeons, all together, with a great rustling of wings "O-oh, they've all flown away!" the real-children complained, won dering what could have happened.

BRANDT Chairman Oregon Dairy Products Campaign Committee There are, of course, no statis tics which give the per capita con sumption of butter in cities as con trasted with rural districts, but careful observation, backed up by some recent surveys, Indlcutes that the per capital city consumption is 20 pounds at least, while rural con sumption does not exceed 12 to 11 pounds. Therefore, the present butter campaign should be carried on principally in the rural districts, at least until the per capita con sumption In such districts can be brought up to the same rate as city consumption. This may re quire plans for a rather longtime campaign, II permanent results are to be realized. The expected improvement in industry conditions lias not mater ialized. It seems evident that in dustrial and commercial conditions will not show any substantial ad vance until next year. This m 'ans lhat the buying power of Ihe city people cannot expand tin tlu ini- mediate ruture. j We are entering upon a new stbr- kd ncaaiiii win. fi cairy-over on May 1 of 22,948,000 pouuds of last year's butter. This Is nearly 16, 000,000 pounds more than the five year average on that date. In ad dition to this there Is a consider able surplus of frozen cream on hand. The current make of butter is filthily less than It was last year, but, on the other hand, there is a grcRt lack of confidence in the storcge situation. This is occa sioned by the hesitancy of specu- lators who lost money heavily on opeiauous aim oy tne . ..... la Ultra-conservative regarding loans on butter. Moreover, there Is a sizeable surplus of canned milk, milk powder, and cheese. There Is also an unusual surplus of mar- lfpt millr ut nil mCrnnnlll.n l.!., I It may be that the make of butter will be augmented from these sources and therefore we will have an increase in the make without actual increase of production in the permanent churning cream areas. The surpluses are not the result of any marked increase In produc tion. They have come about be cause of .the curtailed buying pow er of our people. When this buy ing power returns to normal w may confidently expect a rate ol consumption that will take carl of production and avoid the crea tlon of surpluses'. Fortunately, tho present excess of supplies Is so small that tho situation can continue to remain under the control of the farmers themselves. . That is to say, if farmers will patronize their own industry nnd use as much butter as they really should, they can take care of the excess and a large margin beside. Every dairy farmer can afford to buy his extra 10 pounds of butter even if he has to throw 'it away, just to bring about this healthier market condition. Sales of oleomargarine in the rural counties indicate that a 50od many farmers are not buying any butter at all. So far as they are concerned, their 10 pounds will have to be thrown away. They and their families will enjoy their meals more, their health will .be better, and they will aid In bring ing about an improvement in the b'ltter market.
