There is also the tradition of feudalism. We must remember that here ,on this very soil, In feudal times, the worker was a sei-f, TIED to the land he tilled, wholly at his master's mercy. So, you can see, bitter memories cluster around this term "TIED cottage." It is generaiy expected that the new labor government will do away with the system. Em ployers wonder how, without it, they will be able and "hnndle" their labor. This writer's guess is that it will GO and go quickly, another relic of the past over whelmed by the swelling tide of new thinking that Is sweeping this Island. THIS Evesham area is regarded as distinctly "advanced," For example, if a small holder wants to clear out, he can sell his lease and his property, such as growing cfops, to a neighbor and move on without, saying "by your leave" to nisi 'landlord. ' That Isn't the fjenorril nile,-this writer is told (with England's feudal tradition, landlordism! an Institution here (hut we Americans find it hard lo understand).'' Also, it a tenant has fruit trees or asparagus, or some similar long-term crop, the trees and the roots are HIS PROPERTY, and if he sells his lease and moves, or is dispossessed, he has to be recompensed for them. That also isn't the general rule elsewhere, If the tenant moves after putting out an orchard or an asparagus patch it is just too bad, and he loses them. This Evesham right of the tenant in such matters has been upheld by the courts recently. ( More evidence pf the spread of new ideas.) . EVEN among these small hold ers, with their tiny areas, MECHANIZATION Is taking hold. Mr. Hall has a garden trac tor (one of these little affairs working from a traction wheel in front and guided by handles like a plow). It is made by a well known American manufacturer, and Its owner thinks very highly of it Indeed as a sturdy depend able tool. "I've 'ad It for 'ite years," he says, "and In all that time it's never 'ad so much as a new bolt or a new nut. It stands up and tykes it year arfter year." THE town of Evesham (it is a place of 00,000, but here' In a nest of huge cities that Is a mere village) is neat and attractive, with that distinct and unmistaka ble air of comfort, well-being and reasonable prospciiry that you feel In the ulr. Its shops are well slocked with good merchandise, in strong contrast lo London whose stocks have been practi cally cleaned out of everything by gift-hungry Yanks. Evesham has no dally news paper only a weekly. There are practically NO small city dallies in England. Tho Manchester Guardian and the Yorkshire Post, published In cities far larger than San Francisco, are referred to here as the "provincial press." AtX through rural England thatched roofs are common. Thatch is a good roof, warm in winter and cool in summer. Its disadvantage is that mice nest and tunnel in it, along with some birds, constantly showering down debris into the rooms below. That, however, has been checked by putting. a covering of wire screen around the thatch, and a tight sheathing of boards under it. Thatch i a k'lig-lived roof, RAMBLING By Charles V. Stanton Kclease of workers in shipyards, aircraft factories and other war plants, coming simultaneously with lifting of gasoline rationing, has filled highways with families return ing to their homes or seeking new locations. Roads are con gested with jalopies heaped high with household furnish ings and personal possessions as the hegira of, war workers from industrial centers geta under way. The present condition is but a mild sample of what 'is to come. We can anticipate a vast movement of population continuing over a period of years. Predictions point to a mighty tide sweeping westward to the Pacific slope in the postwar era. Recently we picked up a soldier hitch-hiking his way south from Camp Adair. We learned that he came from New York city and was seeing the Pacific coast for the first time. Given a 30-day furlough, he struck out to view as much of the coast as his limited leave would permit. He volunteered information that he is greatly intrigued by the West coast and plans to bring his family out this way as soon as he secures release from military service. He has been using every weekend pass to visit Oregon cities, and was on his way to California, foregoing a trip back to his home with his wife's telephoned consent during his fur lough, in order that he might search out their prospective postwar homesite. ' , ' This soldier is only one of many thousands making like ulans. Brought from' the Midwest, South and East to Pa cific coast camps for training, great numbers of men fell in love with the Far West and plan to join our communities a3 soon as circumstances permit. Thus we can prepare for a great influx of young, stalwart men, filled with ambition, whom it will be a pleasure to welcome into the fast-growing coast area. Removal of gasoline rationing has filled highways with more than families making their exodus from war produc tion centers. A state policeman told us a traffic count he conducted during his patrol on the highway to be from certainly has returned to normal ing one-fourth of cars counted, half bore Washington licenses, with the balance from Oregon and miscellaneous states. Here in Roseburg, ability to downtown traffic and parking have been walking to and from intervals, are rapidly returning ing the family bus downtown during the daytime, or driv ing the two blocks to the neighborhood grocery. Growing congestion furnishes further proof of Roseburg' 8 rapid boost in population tjnd renews attention to the urgency of; fiv cilities for off-street parking, wider streets and traffic con trols. Speaking of traffic controls, due the city council and street department for the new "Stop" signs erected to replace the "tire busters" previously set in the center of streets at intersections with arterials. The new curbline signs are attractive and a decided im provement. We've had an idea in mind for a long time that the city of Roseburg could improve the traffic situation materially if it would remove all power and light poles from the main streets and cut sidewalks back two feet on each side. Wires could be placed underground or run over the roofs of build ings. Street lights could be hung from brackets fastened to buildings. Presence of poles along sidewalks now wastes at least two feet of space, so sidewalk capacity would not be reduced, while addition of as little us four feet to street width would be of great benefit in traffic movement. It's just an idea. It may not be worth a hoot. Maybe some one has a better plan; if so we'd like to hear about it, for, certainly, wider streets are an absolute necessity. with iin expectancy of 50 to 75 years. IJut you sec NO nrw thntch roofs. The reason given in that that i hing Is a dying mule, like basket weaving among our Indians. No young men are learning it. If you want n thatched roof re paired, you have to hunt up an oldster, who will probably he in his late 70's or maybe his 80's. ii5?

EDWARDS "And they continued stead fastly." The early Christians had the grace of constancy. They were steadfast in their loyalty to Christ and His teach ing and to the Christian fel lowship. They continued stead . fastly in prayer. They con tinued steadfastly in the temple. They were not "off and on" Christians; they were steadfast. Every Lord's Day found them together. When the day of Penticost was fully come, they were all together in one place. They wer stead fast,, meeting every day and waiting for the promise of their Master to be fulfilled. Jesus had been steadfast for them. He steadfastly set His face toward Jerusalem. He would not be turned aside. Our' redemption depended on it. if He failed we would be lost.. He has given us an example of an attainable ideal. Let us not fail Him. Let us beware of the enemies of steadfastness, indif. ference, indolence, careless company, the downward pull of evil desires. Paul's admonition "Be ye steadfast, unprovable, always abounding," is good ad. vice lor these days. "O Lord and Master of us all; Whate'er our name or sign. We own 1 ny sway. We hear Thy can, , We test our lives by Thine." Amen 03 Red and While Friday and 1 LaJl --TCr3Zr;Tc-! WV A U Saturday...

T. mm,m Peacetime Buying On Installment Is On Way Back WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 (AP) Peacetime installment buying practices are apparently on the way back in. It was learned today that re laxation of the government regu lation fixing specific down pay ments on numerous purchase items and otherwise limiting the practice of "buying on time," may be effected within two weeks. The regulation went into ef fect in the fall of 1941. It was the seventh point of the late Pres ident Roosevelt's general stabili zation program. It provides for a down pay ment of one-third at the time of purchase and stipulates the re mainder must be paid in 12 months for a long list of items including such commodities as bedding and linens, bicycles, boats, clocks, stoves, furnaces, Jewelry, cameras, most musical instruments, radios and washing machines. For time purchases of furni ture and pianos. 20 per cent must be paid immediately and the re mainder in 12 months. The regulation also placed con trols of loans made to purchase such commodities or services and provided that charge accounts must be paid by the 10th day of the second month following the date of purchase. Whether the regulation will be abandoned entirely or merely modified depends on decisions of officials charged with maintain ing a stable economy.
