A Cottage Grove pastor made the remark a few weeks ago that many of us havo to attend tho funeral >f a friend in order to visit our neigh borH. That applies to many of uh and it might have been added that we are so everlastingly busy that often we do not learn that a. friend or neighbor has been in the agony of' death until we are asked whether we arc going to attend the funeral. Many of us are so busy that we can’t even find time to attend the funeral. If wo keep on at our present, pace, by the time sonic o! f us have lived out our lives the world may be so busy that no one will have time to remove us to the burial plot. There is no pleasure greater than that of knowing that you have car­ ried cheer to the sick room, There is "reat satisfaction in knowing that you did all you could to make pleasant the last, hours on earth of some friend or neighbor. The truth is that we fiddle away on pleasure more than enough time to perform the duties which we owe to the sick and suffering. IIOW EASILY EDITORS LIE. that are certain to bring sorrow and pain to innocent ones. Of course this drawback may be offset by the pleasure of writing obituaries for those who abused the editor or reporter in life. But to get back to what we were talking about, tho-confidence re­ posed in-the newspapers of the country is a tribute to the effort and expense to which reputable newspapers go to have their news correct. Did the reader know the number of chances for error, ho might with- hold his confidence.

The pine beetle epidemic in Klam­ ath and Lake counties, which is timated to have destroyed $5,000,000 worth of yellow pine timber in the past ten years, is virtually cleaned out of Oregon, according to the an­ nouncement of A. J. Jaenicke, for­ est entomologist, who has directed the control project. “We are now working to prevent the recurrence of a similar epidem­ ic,’’ Jaenicke said, “and are keep­ ing a careful watch on the cleaned up sections.’’ Approximately $200,000 has been was spent cooperatively by the gov­ ernment and private owners. The Klamath Falls Protective associa­ tion is representing the private timber owners in the project anti the Indian service, forest service and bureau of entomology are rep­ resenting the federal interests. The campaign against the pi.ie beetle was carried on in approx i- mutely 1,000,000 acres in the two counties. This territory is now vir- tually free from the epidemic. It was not until recently authorities realized that the insect less than one-fourth of an inch in length. It kills thrifty tim­ ber by eating out the tissue of the trees. It penetrates the bark and makes its home in the heart of the pine, causing it to die within a per­ iod of one or two years. The control measures consist in locating infected timber, peeling the bark and burning the infected por tions which contain the beetle hordes. Dr. Charles II.

Once upon a time a wag made a hit with a poem entitled, “llow Easily Editors Lie.“ And the wag told the truth. It is easy for editors to lie. But often when editors lie it in the fault of someone else who has been careless in giving the facts for a news item. If editors were ns careless in get- ting at tho facts ns the ordinary person is in trying to give correct information upon which to base a news item, errors in newspapers would be multiplied. If you wish to know something about tho difficulty of getting th? facts straight, get a story from 12 persons who were witnesses of an automobile accident. You are likely to havo 24 versions. It probably happens many times daily that a reader of a newspaper will find one error of fact in mi entire edition of a. newspaper and then wisely observe that you can never believe what you read in a newspaper.
