Your Good Deed For The Day
Boy Scouts have "their good deed for the day” to perform —
th at is, if they are good Boy Scouts.
Every resident of this area should have his or her good deed
for the day to perform —and first, in the way the Pilot thinks, is
honest advertising, to friends, the area in southw est Oregon.
Picked up by United Press were stories about the re-birth of
the area once a lumber milling town of note, due to lilies—although
this United Press article mentioned lumbering as one of the p rin
cipal industries. Lumbering is and will, for a long tim e, be a prin-
cijwl industry, but not to the point where it can supply lum ber in
quantities to Enid, Oklahoma, T erra Haute, Indiana, or other places
as remote. Right now, some four or five hundred homes would be
built ahr)ost in this immediate area, were lumber available in such
quantities as people over the world have been lead to believe.
Rsidents good turn should be to tell your friends, those who
plan location in this area: "Opportunity is here in untold am ounts—
there’s no limit to the resources now untouched but please do not
expect to get a home soon, unless you can build im m ediately for
yourself." Such would be much better than to left them become
disappointed, once they arrived here.
Residents' good turn should be to tell your friends, those who
the settler who wishes to locate somewhere than this imm ediate
vicinity. However, people under-financed would have difficulty in
locating here with comfort, when those who are so endowed, a l
ready here, have been unable t o get many necessities, such as new
houses, homes for rent, and even suitable building sites.
Ihts area is virgin in almost any angle you care to view’ it.
Development must be done, and certainly it takes jieople to do just
that but inform people who wish to come to a country for such
opportunities of development. This area is no place for idlers.
