POETS CORNER THE ROCKY TRAIL The youhg man took the cool green path, When starting on life's way; His eager mind filled with high hopes Of tomorrow's ending day. No trouble barred his joyous way; No worries filled his mind. Just happiness and peace and hope, Were all that he could find. But the old man followed a rocky trail, Strewn with thorns and ston?s. lie found where others had pass ed that way; So he fought on alone. When the young man came to his journey's end. He found he'd failed the ten. The old man. tired from his weary walk, Found a bed and rest. By Muriel Hammersley, Riddle, Oregon. WARNING TO MOTHERS' IIIADUCCanCaust O VVUIllTia Trouble!

The Douglas county delegation inserted in the record a plea for the removal of price restriction on copper, contending that cop per deposits could be developed if permitted a better price, but that properties could not be de veloped at the present fixed price of 12 cents. It was pointed out that only a few months ago it was claimed the United States could not produce sufficient quicksilver for Its domestic needs, but thtt when left unhin dered on price, the development of quicksilver mines in less than one year has been sufficient to supply not only the domestic needs but the defense needs as well with a liberal surplus avail able for Great Britain. The local delegation further stressed the importance of tim ber as a defense material and the need for roads to open up im portant timber areas.
