FOR INSTANCE, building per mits Bre now required throughout Lane Couyly, And, in some ways, the state's minimum building code requirements are stlffer than those set up by city ordinances. Many semi - rural sections of Lane County now have land-use regulations worked out through the County Planning Commission And, in some particulars believe it or not these rules are more re strictive than those applied under Eugene s zoning ordinance. As an example: sideyard - set backs required for residential buildings in Eugene are but three feet, but the county code calls for five feet. Another: a person' can keep a horse In Eugene if his pro perty is zoned for outer residential use and he has at least 10,000 square feet of land, a 100 by 100 I foot lot or- its equivalent. But the land area requirement is 20,000 square feet. Most new areas entering Eugene are first classified as "outer resi dential" to provide for the keep ing of animals and to permit, without particular disruption, the manner of living the new city resi dents knew before they chose to enter the city. ON THE OTIIER hand, city residents must abide by ordinances that control such things as trash burning and door-to-door solicita tions and sales. Dogs brdinarily have a tougher life in the city. At least through the spring gardening season they must be kept at home, fenced in or on leashes For those who put a high value on the freedom of individual ac tions left them by county and stale regulations, suburban life probably holds a special attraction. But on careful examination, it's debatable just how much the sub urbanite escapes either costs or regulations. mil in lhp onunlv. dogs must be licensed, taxes must be paid, water and power must be obtained, and the prudent buy fire insurance.

You're the object of adulation all over the country. It's in your honor that business men of Amer ica are asked to observe National Secretaries Week, June 1-7. It might even be a good time to strike the boss for that raise. THE OFFICIAL week, dedi cated to the greater glory of the typing-and - shorthand queen, has the dual purpose of alerting busi ness men to the supreme import ance of the secretary, and of en couraging June graduates to take to secretarial work as a serious career. The lot of the modern secretary is a happy one if she knows her business. As to opportunities. the sky s the limit. The national shortage of secre taries has been well publicized through appeals from government officials, harried business men and various organizations interested in the problem. RECENTLY Charles Sawyer, secretary of commerce termed the office worker shortage "a matter of serious concern throughout the country." The high point of secretaries week will be Secretaries Day, Wednesday, June 4. Any employer who doesn't bring his secretary an orchid on that day, or at least let her take two hours for lunch, should have his head examined. After all, as government and business have concurred, "a good gal is hard to find.
