Simply be- cause the minds of the popu- lous are conditioned in not accepting this point of fact. It has been bandied about that Hillary Clinton may run for president of the USA at the next election. If you were Hillary Clinton, who is high up in the poli- tics of the Liberal Democ- rats and wanted to run for president of the USA, what means would you use to recondition people’s minds to be more acceptable to having a woman president? Get the Liberal mem- bers of your party together and come up with a working plan. Like maybe a weekly TV program showing a woman as the president.

NOW HAS AN OFFICE IN CAVE JUNCTION A $10,000 grant for the second consecutive year for a conservation environ- mental education program has been received by The Nature Conservancy from the PacifiCorp Foundation for Learning. Conservancy youth crews receive a high level of training and work on a range of sophisticated conserva- tion problems including in- vasive species control, pre- scribed fire, ecological monitoring and restoration planning, said the conser- vancy. “These mostly at-risk groups work at the same site during a year or more, al- lowing participants to as- sume greater leadership and ownership of the project,” said Russell Hoeflich, Ore- gon director of The Nature Conservancy. “When young people develop an awareness of conservation challenges, and learn a sense of responsibil- ity, they become good stew- ards of the natural environ- ment,” he said, adding: “Plus there are so many career opportunities in con- servation, and this program provides exposure to them.” Help Wanted ‘Illinois Valley News’ has an immediate open- ing for a full-time, take- charge bookkeeper.
