Bakh A distinguished writer wrote: "The nominal Christian is in no danger of an exccssiw prayer life." To the mind of thia writer, thia wonderful “Friendship Train" that is roiling across the nation is perhaps the greatest concerted act of generosity of thia nation in peace time And the build Up lor this train did not require a group of high pressure salesmen to put it over. POWER SHORTAGE IMMINENT j' According to Merrill his company signed a contract with Hua Bonneville administration along with four other power com- p^ues calling for a delivery of 11.000 kilowatts in addition to j tlwlO.OOO kilowatts mentioned above, which takes the place of Pj®wer purchased under a temporary arrangement from the' Portland General Electric. .The situation boils down to a point ^here all power com panies, l>oth public and private, face the possibility of peak loads and in some cases overloads during the winter months without prospects of relief at the present time. One temporary solution suggested by Mr. Merrill is re stricted use of non-essential power between the hours of 10.00 a. m and 4 to 6 o’clock in the evening. And it may be possible to shift certain loads of power to off peak hours and to ask for curtailment of all non-essential service. LIQUOR BOARD TO STAY UNTIL SUCCESSORS NAMED would serve until he appoints a new commission. Hall also said he would make no statement on policy for the new commission to follow, explaining he could not conceive of such a board functioning under a gov ernor who dictated policies. Oregon's three liquor commis sioners who resigned at Gov. John H. Hall’s request, will remain in office until he names successors, probably about Dec. 1. The governor said he had re ceived assurance from al) three— Hugh Lebanon; __ _ „ R. .

S. forest service, They include one-third of the ns- tional saw-timber stand. They are being managed for continuous tim- ber production, In recent years the national forests have supplied about 10 per cent of the nation’s yearly lumber cut. Eventually, their total sustained-yield output of timber can be more than doubled. Crossing Accidents Approximately 88 per cent of the accidents at highway - railroad grade-crossings last year involved motor vehicles and resulted in 1,558 fatalities. Color of Flour Remains Addition of thiamine, niacin, ribo flavin and iron does not materially change the color or flavor of white flour, according to the Georgia ag ricultural extension service.

Here’s every man's automobile ! It is difficult to think of a person who wouldn't be extremely happy to own and drive a Pontiac. I have operated a barber shop in Cottage Grove for the past twenty-five years. If experience counts, these years should mean some thing to the discriminating public who appreciate good service. David S. Peterson has been with us for a short while, and is a very competent workman. He has a home to move a brand new- wife in and Mr. and Mrs. Peterson expect to make their home here. Maxine Thomas has been associated with our shop long enough tp be well known here. She is very de pendable and is an excep- tion with children. The Thotbas’ own their own home here. Floyd Morri« has heen with us a year. He is a bar- lier with 25 years experience an«l has done Indies’ hair cutting in several exclusive barber shops in Portland, He has his own home here. So for experienced service call on SQUARE DEAL BARBER SHOP 514 Main St. So whether you arc seeking quality— or ere»- outy— or whether you arc seeking both— you can find what you want in Pontiac.
