they stayed at homo and talked
and in tha end their natural com
mon sense and good citizenship
got the upper hand, for they went
hack to work this morning pend
ing a reconsideration of their
case by the war labor board.
. And people started riding the
cable ears again and were happy.
OVER in Berkeley, a friend tells
this writer, there's a big bulge
ill the chicken business.
People ate building chicken
houses in their back yards. The
houses they're building have been
specially designed by the Univer
sity of California, with screen
wire floors and receptacles below
to catch the droppings, which are"
then carefully treated for use as
fertilizer for victory gardens.
They're planning, you see, to Imi
tate the packers and utilize every
thing but the squeal. ,'
The Idea Is lu be able to twiddle
inch' thumbs at the meat and egg
shortage. In addition to chicken
houses, they are putting up rah- j
bit hutches.
Who says we aren't a resource- I
ful people? I
ONE young salesman who works j
over on this side of the bay i
has 28 Hhode Island reds anil has
already made a deal with his !
small daughter to sell the surplus I
eggs among the neighbors on a j
commission-thus adding to the
family Income and teaching the ,
child valuable business lessons at ,
the same time.
This writer carefully refrained j
from quoting the old adage which 1
advises strongly against counting i
chickens before they're hatched. '
It's a good idea never to try to i
discourage anybody who wants to j
gil Into the chicken business. It
can't be done, anyway. i
HKKE'S one for the book! i
The city council of Piedmont,
which of all the ritzy spols of I
northern California is by lung
odds the ritziest, has just adopted
an ordinance peiinlttiug the keep-
lilt of chickens w ithin the city I
limits.
A thought intrudes at this
point:
If these I'iedmonlers feed their
chickens after li o'clock, do you
suppose they'll make 'em dress
for dinner?
ASAIl story bobbed up last
night in the course of an ani
mated conversation on the subject
of food privations.
fine citizen who is inordinately
fond Of gin fizzes has had to give

'scarcity of eggs anil the total lack
of whipping cream.
Ah, well; war is war and we
all have to make sacrifices.
F
'OOP Is still plentiful enough
in the public eating places, hut
at that there's a catch to it. !
Most of them seem to have I
about two meatless days a week '
(meatless meaning no beef or'
pork but the trouble is that they I
all seem to pick different days
So, If you eat around, you're like- i
ly to get gypped. !

CHARLES A. BRAND IS PRAISED
EDITORIAL
By Charles
1 VF.KY fine tribute to Charles A. Brand of Roseburg, who
" this month completed 20 years of continuous service on
the state board of higher education and who was not n candi
date for reappointment, is contained in a recent issue of the
Eugene Register-Guard. Commenting upon Mr. Brand's ser
vice to the stale, the Register-Guard says:
"His has been the scholarly up roach to higher education.
He has been the board member who speaks and understands
the language of the scholars and teachers. He has been an
interpreter of education as an influence on life and character,
as distinguished from education as a training for profession or
craft. ' '
"His voice has been gentle
that educational values arc not
titles of worldly success.
"There will always be need for someone like the gentleman
from Roseburtf in educational affairs. We say this because
we think we know something of this state and the people who
inhabit it. The mountains and valleys of Oregon enclose many
a person who has found the vi lues of education in the intan
gibles and the measure of success in those things which give
beauty and dignity to life.
"There is a thin;; known as learning which may or may not
have practical application in terms of conventional success.
1 here is also wisdom. Mr. Brand in his years on the Oregon
state board did much to see that wisdom was not overlooked."
The Oregon Male legislature has completed the 42nd ses
sion. Lastmg 59 day3, it was the shortest session since 1937.
I he work of the legislative body will not be satisfactory to all
people. On the whole, however, the legislature showed the
commendable purpose of endeavoring to contend with major
issues and exclude the ever-present muddle of unnecessary
measures.
Its action to lelieve l.ixpayers of some of th'j load of state
taxes in these times when federal taxes are pyramiding was
indeed commendable. Whether the legislature was wise in
again referring a sales 'ax oronosal In the neonle will !. ltr.
mined when that issue ,r brought to vote. There was little of
the spectacular in the 42nd session of the state legislature, but
it did preserve n semblance of dignity, which was in itself an
achievement, considering some
President Roosevelt this we-?k
the grave" social security program. Having had Santa C'lau:
as a running mate in the previous campaigns, It looks like thi
old boy with the red "zoot suit" may be being groomed fu;
the expected fourth term attempt.

Grohms Give Woe
You know all about those gremlins-well
radio folk are dogged
by all the little step brothers and
sisters of gremlins, namely,
Grohms. Grohms get in the pro
grams and upset schedules. They
snatch good shows and spot them
where commercial contracts have
the time tied up tighter than a
Scotchman's purse. They cancel
:;l'.ows just when we've told you
to be sure to listen, and just as
soon us we give a show a eood
buildup one of those Grohms
slips In and the show goes sour
on that one night.
In witness whereof, we submit:
last Monday's "San Quentin on
the Air" was its roorcst produc
tion to date. Try it again this
week, for Milton White, colored
singer; Johnny Trudrung, tenor,
and Joe Grady are all scheduled
to sing. They'll be saluting the
U. S. army and navy in Australia
ar.d the whole half-hour will be
limed and tied for St. Patrick.
Also, in witness whereof, "This
Is the Hour" (we told you about
it last night) will be withdrawn
from circulation after this Sat-
i i rew win sing coming in un a
I Wing and a Prayer", and besides
that there's a iiO-piece soldier or
chestra with a swing wing.
