In the past two or three years much has I .'en said lor ami
against the flood control project. Thus, who have opposed I lie
projeet. p articularly the Cottage Grove dam. have sought to
minimise the danger of floods, saying that the cost ot the dams
were wav out of proportion to the small dam age done by the
floods in the past. Like many others the w riter never ra id e d
where this danger existed to the degree it does, therefore could
not en ter the argum ent for and against the projeet so ta r as i e
costs of the dams are concerned nor tlm danger that was pre*« nt.
But the experience of being in a flood«! district isn t exactly
to he m easured in dollars and cents, if the experience ot those
in it count for anything. Bloods like windstorm s, m v e one the
feeling that to he in one once is too often and so ta r as p ro w l
itiri protection is concerned, cost is not ¿in l‘ss ntial tm tot.
neither is fish life.
,
As most of our readers know, we have the engineers word
for it that there would have been a flood here had it not been
for the p artly completed C ottage Grove dam. which held hack
20.000 second' feet of w ater, enough to flood the town, dust how
bad the flood might have Iteeti. we don t know.
At any rate the present experience will soon Me forgotten
by those who were not in the tlooded district and in tuture
years you will probably hear the same old line, t h a t G oods
have never been of serious eons« quence.

T H E FA LSE PRO PHETS.
The alleged " o il sh o rtag e” on the Eastern S.-almard pro-
vided a perfect example of a politically created crisis which
had almost no foundation in fact.
The unnecessary rationing of gasoline has been abandoned,
and it is reported th at reserve stocks of oil. fa r from dwindl
ing, are on the increase. In the meantime, however, the public
was subjected to needless inconvenience ami worry.
Now it looks as if the so-called “ electric power shortages
which are periodically forecast with -care headlines, tall into
the same category as the non-existent oil shortage. The nation
has heen told for a decade, hv prom oters of socialized power,
that a serious deficiency of power in m ajor industrial areas was
imminent. I, has been told th at civilian consumption of power
would probably have to he severely rationed. ,t has been told
that the power industry has failed to keep pace w ith demand.
W hat is the tru th of the m a tte r! I, is plain enough. Not one
really serious power shortage has put in its scheduled ap p ear
ance. in every im portant industrial area, needed electricity i s
available. Even in the «lefense "boom to w n s” -.-here industrial
development for m ilitary purposes has taken place a, an in
credible rate of speed, power is lit ing quietly and efficiently
provided. And more than 90 per cent of th at power comes from
private utilities.
There is, of course, a purpose behind these periodic politi
cal denunciations of private industry for alleged failure to meet
emergency needs. That purpose is obvious—to destroy the faith
of the people in the private enterprise system, and to lead th«-
people to the point where they will accept w idespread socializa
tion of industry.
Choosing Women’s Clothes
Women should choose their clothes
to meet their particular activities,
such as action-back and action-
sleeve dresses for free arm and
shoulder movement, say clothing
specialists.
Sweep Toward Center
When sweeping a room open all
the windows and sweep toward the
center of the room. This prevents
the dust from settling on the wood
work and the walls do not get so
dusty as they otherwise would.

SEASON.
The custom of expressing th anks at this season ol the year
might ap p ear to he a bit trite and tim e-worn to those w ho take
th eir right to th eir present stan d ard s of living as a m atter ot
course as well as the fact that they were horn in this country
and not a nation in the now w ar-torn Europe.
In stopping to give thanks for the ma,« rial blessings most of
us now enjoy, num bers have never sloped to think Gia, hut tor
the ae, of providence, we might he a people living in a country
bled white by war. where there are few or nr opportunities,
where getting enough to eat is a rarety and where wha, you
think you must keep to yourself lest it he contrary to some «lie-
tu to r’s policy anti where you live in constant fear <>t yout lit«-.
There are many people facing these perils on this I hauk*-
giviug. There are people who are literally starving. who haxt
never known wha, it is to have enough to eat. And there are
people living today who have never known wha, peace really
means, even when actual w arfare ceases.
S tudents of history appreciate the peculiar position ot
America, removed fa r enough from nations of the old world-not
to he draw n in the petty anti m ajor strife strik in g alm ost.con
stantly in nations where an im aginary line is used as a national
border and where a man may he culled on to hear arm s three or
four tim es in the course of the average three score and ten years.
A little reflection on the few tinu s we have been at w ar in
our national history anti our present stan d ard of living as c o m
pared with the less fortunate should be a basis of heart t«lt
thanksgiving.

Driving at 30 mile« an hour into

direction at the same «peed I» like
driving a car off a three-atory building.
KNOW THE LAWS OF PHYSICS
A thorough knowledge of the laws
of physics cornés ahead of actual
skill in handling a car.
,
How many drivers realize as they
turn a corner th a t two tons of weight
want to keep on going in a straight
line? Here are a few of the important
thinj gs to remember about the laws
of physics:
At 25 miles an hour a car has
developed enough energy to roll over
once. At 50 it has developed not
twice but four times the energy—
enough to roll over four times. At 75,
it has developed hot three timps but
nine times the energy—enough to
roll over nine times.
At 25 miles an hour you can make
a fairly sharp turn; a t 50 only one-
fourth as sharp; at 75 your turn can
be only one-ninth as sharp as when
you were going 25.
