I Aileu county, Ransiis, has spent $1000 trying to determine if a householder can kill a neighbor's tat. The first trial re sulted in & disagreement, which is, we assume, what started the first trial, ... j Bob Sawyer, statu highway, commissioner and Bond Bul Jclm publisher, has turned down any invitations to get into the congressional race. I lis decision is fortunate for the en tire state, unfortunate for the 'district. Or maybe it's the other way 'round. In any event, what we mean- to say is that Bob is a whale of a success as a highway commissioner wd we'd hate to lose him. By the same token he'd be a whale of a success as a congressman and we'd like to have him. The Observer regrets very much the resignation of Mr. Cobu.-n from the city commission and his removal, together with his fine family, to Walla Walla. CUv. Coburn has been cn excellent commissioner. Since the first day in office he haj Lecn deeply concerned with his responsibility to the. city, ht.3 studied it,-has given it:. much time and thought. La Gii.ndc has been fortunate in having such a high type of conscientious service, and while our loss becomes the gain of Wallu Walla, the Union Pacific, and Mr. Coburn, we are very eoiiy.it'was necessary..., Uq has been a good citizen, a valued official a Aaitafctiiiftrvidi. aUtrftiRjr and wcK.'"iWo"wfeh 'film much' j dy 'und success in his new surroundings. ..'V,. . ; ;v i ' : i : "Ji. ;f ENJOYING YOUR OWN COMPANY , People who have-no intention of ever letting themselves jjet caught alone on a desert island are always making out lists of tho books they'd want with tlient hi such an emerg ency. . Gustav Davidson, 32 years old, author and book lcviewer, is off to u South Sea island said lo be uninhabited by any while man and not too densely populated with na tives. He is taking just three books with him: the World Almanac, a dictionary, and the Bible. f ; One's puipose in seeking solitude would have much to do with the choice of books lo put in one's pockets, we imagine, but in the present case the author hits nu pped out a good Bizcd piece of work for himself. He intends to write two novels, a travel book, a diary, some short stories and a play based on life of the islands. He will hardly have time for light reading; his choice of books may be more than suffi cient, lie has an active mind, apparently, and the capacity lor enjoying his own society. What would happen to most people if they were forced to spend a considerable time on a South Sea island unin habited by whites? With an almanac, a dictionary, and tho Bible? Without friends or anyone who had experienced the average social contacts? Without anyone with whom to iplay bridge or pinochle or with whom one might gossip a bit at times? ' Being thrown entirely on one's own rerources, with only the society of one's self to enjoy or hate, with only one's own mind as company that is an experience that would find many of us ill equipped to make the most of the orpartunity of solitude. Human friends and acquaintances, social con tacts play too important a part in most lives. Happy is the man who can seek solitude, in company with three books and rn active, creative mind, with confidence that his will be a huppy and Inoadoning experience. Such a man need have little fear of losing friends, family, or fortune. Ho can find happiness always within himself.

When a refrigerator contributes to the health and comfort of the vhtle family for years to come when a refrigerator cuts the tasks anil the costs of housekeeping .... then it proves itself a thoroughly sound investment. The General Electric Refrigerator does all these and a great many more. It operates economically because it has an unusually small, but highly efficient motor. This consumes surprisingly little current. Then, too, the top unit design allows all the heat generated to rise above the cabinet not through it.
