Register Tomorrow
-TOMOIIKUW is all-county re-
glstration day. This registra
tion is a part of the civil defense
program in the state. The head
ing of the registration blank
reads "Oregon Civil Reserves,
Application for Knrollmcnt."
'ihe registration is for every
body, Blanks (separate) have
been provided for bolh men and
women. There Is no age limit,
either high or low.
The purpose of the registra
tion is to obtain an inventory of
manpower with certain data
about each individual so that
classification can he made and,
In time of emergency or need,
selection can be quickly made.
There Is no current obligation.
When you sign u blank you are
merely stating your willingness
to do what you can If and when
your services are needed. In ad
dllion you state on the blank
what you are most fitted to do.
Unless something terrible hap
pens in our state- something like
a major disaster - flood or earth
quake or we are actually Invad
ed by an enemy, there will be no
occasion to make use of the Ore
gon Civil Reserves.
teach regular election polling
place in 'lie county, outside the '
t.lly of Itoseburg, will be open j
tomorrow or the registration of
Oregon Civil Reserves. In Rose
burg registration blanks will be
available at the Roseburg cham
ber of commerce olfiee, at the
siale employment ofliee In the
com (house and at the Grand Bar
ber shop In the (hand hotel
building.
This is our opportunity to dem
onstrate tile willing and patriotic
spirit of Ilic people of this area,
li we lad to have a good regis
tration turnout It will not mean
that we ari' unpatriotic, merely
that we are careless hut that is
one of Ihe troubles In the world,
too many count l ies have been
populated hy thoughtless and
careless eili.eus now they are
:.i'ves.
CTAUN'S speech Is only a
speech. By Itself, It means
little. .Speeches alone don t win
wars.
What happens will depend en
tirely on Ihe Russian people. If
they are willing to make the sac
rifices the Chinese have; made,
Hitler may live to regret the mo
ment when he made Ids decision
to go into Russia.
The real power of any nation
rests upon the TOUGHNKSS of
the moral fibre of its people. Brit
ain proved that in the dark hours
that followed the collapse of
France.
France proved It conversely by
collapsing.

TT was obvious to Carolyn
Mother of Associate
Justice Douglas Dies
YAKIMA, Wash., July 7. -(API
Mrs. Julia B. Fiske Douglas, (10,
mother of Associate Justice Wil
liam O. Douglas of the United
States supreme court, died in Chi
cago yesterday after an illness of
seven months.
Mrs. Douglas, who was born
near Maine, Minn., was married
lo Ihe Rev. William Douglas, a
that
Lcana Sormi was irrational
about the discovery in the Schoen
fold Laboratory, and victimized
by her own emotions.
At the end of Leana's melodra
malic speech to Bob, Carolyn had
wanted to interrupt. But a latent,
creeping fear of the woman with
the foreign name had somehow
become intensified in that quarter-hour.
It was a senseless fear,
she told herself. Lcana probably
was just wrought up over everything.
But no; no, she wasn't either.
She spoke too earnestly, too im
pressively; plainly she had been
thinking all this out. Plainest of
all now was the fact that Leana
loved Dr. Robert Hale.
"She's crazy about him!" Caro
lyn half whispered to herself.
A flash of practical . reasoning
told her instantly to quit this
strange new secretarial job and go
back to her old position in the
bank or find a new routine some
where with good, solid Ken Palm

or he was.
She knew in the same instant
that she would never do that now.
If all the X-900 in Bob's labora
tory was about to blow up in her
face she'd still stick to this new
job, even though she couldn't
have said why. Here was tot.
much potential; a lot had already
happened, and every hour gave
promise of a great deal more. It
was like being in a mystery play
Intuition rather than practi
cality also prevented her from re
vealing her presence lo Leans
Sormi.
She beard Leana's plea: hcarc
Bob take a courteous, kindly, bu'
somewhat superficial reaction It
it, giving Leana very little to tit
to. Lcana worked herself int
tears and so fled rather abruptly
Bob came immediately In Caro
lyn's office. Carolyn felt hcr.s'jl
blush guiltily, even though she liac
no actual guilt. To cover hci
confusion, she fcinnqd deep in
terest in her shorthand nitcs, pen
cil and pad in band.
i "That was Lcana Sormi," In ,
j said, unnecessarily. "Did you bear
her?" . j
"Oh. Why yes." She wouldn't
lie about it! "She sounded rather I
distressed. Bob. Naturally so, of )
course. Al least, I thought I :
heard her voice indicate that, i
uh " I
"She will be all right. She is j
a brilliant woman. Girl. She
is only 29. I mean, well, that's !
a woman, isn't it?" He smiled ;
a bit, "Kxactly when floes a girl
become a woman, come to think !
of it?" J
"I wouldn't take that up today j
11 i were you. we still have a
moving job on hand."
iliais very true. And you
were saying you had an idea."
'-AJY' idea was about moving
the X-9DI3. It seems to me
that the only safe place lo store it j
is away out on the plains or moun- I
tains. You said you wouNI nccl i
electric power to run the expeii-
mental laboratory. I mean, win 1
you mid your helpers adapt the j
stulT to to factory engine', and i
trains, and automobile.., and what- j
ever. Isn't that so?" I
"Yes." !
"Bob, aren't tliro electric pow- !
cr hue.; from dams and things 011 j
livers? I saw 111 the movies, or '
read somewhere "
"I see what you mean!" I
"Good! There's, well. Boulder
Dam. That's in Arizona, isn't it?
Mr. O'Malley at the bank used
to tall: about it. It's a long wav !
from any city. But the electric !
line runs over mountains and j
things, and look, couldn't wc !
maybe get the X-009 nut there I
even before you had a laboratory j
built? Maybe store it m a cave !
U. case your mind? 1
"Goodness. Hob. you'll have nn i
peace as long as ji slays in this
city laboratory here, you know '
that. Any nearby farmhouse such :
as you tirst cho.-e wouid be dau- '
gemu.-. But away n'T "
"That's the ticket!" Bob had
hung one leg on a corner of her i
dc.-k. half sitting, but he suddenly
got up to walk tick and forth a; :
he did when intent on anything. I
"That's exactly the light hunch. '
Carolyn. Y'ou're a tirearn'"
That startled her a bit. Siic '
looked quickly at him. But ho
w is gjir.i oil. planning. It had ,!
i'-"-n .simply a circioj word of ,
thanks. ;
tory needs would be out there
nd how best to meet Ihose needs.
"Okay, I shall catch a plane
tonight," he suddenly announcd.
relaxing. "I don't know why I
never thought of thi3 myself. "I
was reared out there, you know.
I can "
"Were you, Bob? In the West?"
Carolyn showed new interest in
him.
He nodded. "In Colorado. B. S.
degree from Colorado U. I'm
practically a cowboy." He laughed
at that. "My dad was an insur
ance supervisor over two states
out Mere. Transferred to Pcnn-
sylvania when I was 19. 1 really. 4
can ride, Carolyn. Could, I mean,v-'
When I had lime. In the last
year or two "
He ended a bit wistfully, she
thought. But she studied him
anew. That rearing accounted for
a lot of his physical appearance
and his mannerisms. A boy from
the West!
"Of course, every conceivable
care must be exercised in moving
it and, of course, I shall do it my
self." He was back at work
again. "Thi'rc must be no mis

ever, is for mc "
IP
E talked for nearly an hour
more, talked nod dictated
notes, and planned with Carolyn's
help. Eagerly, almost hungrily,
he seemed to confide in his sec
retary here, to seek her counsel
and advice, her co-operation. She
was touched by that; no man could
have paid her higher tribute; at
least, no employer could have.
When it was done and he had
returned to his own olTice desk
and she was making her typewrit- V
or sing its hearty staccato again,
she heard the outer door open
for the second time this morn
ing. Hut it was a man's voice
this time and she recognized it
for one of the three elderly watch
men who made constant night-and-day
patrol of the Schoen fold
Laboratory buildings, punching
clocks and keeping guard.
''Letter,' Dr. Hale," the man
said. "From Miss Sormi, sir."
"Miss Sormi?" Carolyn beard
Rob reply. "Why, sho was just
in here un hour or so ago. And
her olTice is only " He paused.
"ilmmmm. Well, she rent it.
She's the queer one anyhow, ii
you ask me Never laughs, nor
passes the time of day with uj
like you always do, sir. Say, when
you gonna tell us what you got
them cops guarding the main lab
for, Dr. Hale? Danged if you
ain't got my cu-rus'ty up!"
The old fellow ended on a ge
nial chuckle, hut he passed on
when he saw that Bob wis al .jf
ready intent on Leana's letter.
