Under the
I A i
GOVERNOR WILLARD L
MARKS it having many un-
1 f ... r
uuu experience biucv am
has aasamed the executlvo posi
tion for the month of December.
Their oecnrances demonstrate In
an emphatic way his geniality and
rating in his home city ot Albany
and his native Linn county. And
Marks enjoys a good Joke oa him
self, too.
This one he tells oa himself.
Last week several prominent ci
tizens of Albany, were colas;
into the banking department
when Marks saw them. The
governor asked if they were
driving back to Albany and re,
q nested a ride with them. When
Schramm detected the three, ha
commented to the Albany men,
'I see yon are la good company,
since job bring the governor
with you.H They replied. "He
may be governor to yon, bnt
he's only a hitch hiker to us."
The other day Marks was walk
ing down a Salem street when a
newsboy stopped him and said
"Hello Mr. Marks." The gover
nor spoke to the lad, but said he
had forgotten his name. The boy
came back with 'Why, don't yon
know me7 I was at your twin
roundup last year. There's my
twin brother selling papers on the
other corner."
The boys were Rex and Ro
land Wirth, and had attended
the annaal roundup of twins
held each year at Albany. WO
lard Marks has been one of the
presiding officers at that state
wide event, bat that was the
first time be was credited with
owning the affair. The fact that
Marks was governor apparently
dklnt rate half as much with
those boys as managing the
roundup.
If there was any doubt in peo
ple's mind yesterday morning that
the water bonds carried, all they
had to do was step outside. Yes
terday proved to be one of the
wettest days of the fall season.
Some people around the state-
house were telling Councilman
Dave O'Hara how much better the
water tasted yesterday morning
Now that the big election Is
over and all there remains to do
is sell the bonds, reach an
agreement with the water com
pany, take over the property,
find some good water on the
north San tin m, outline the work
to be done, purchase equipment,
and several other important de
tails, it won't be long before
700 men will be busy at work.
But better not figure too strong
on this Job before Christmas.
And speaking of Christmas
brings up the matter of programs
around the big Christmas tree in
the capltol building next week. A
double quarter of state house em
ployes has already been rehears
ing special numbers for this an-

Talk About Service....
WHAT is this thing called service?.
It's that gracious thought that remem
bers that you want your Christmas
packages held until ... or want them
to look Christmas-y. The suggestion
of a comfortable resting place after a
strenuous shopping tour. A handy
telephone ... a desk with stationery
to pen'a note to a friend or relative.
You may want your stockings mended,
a taxi called or a package delivered . . .
it's that extra, unexpected something
that makes Miller's a happy place in
which to shop.
