Here we are, trying to make the country more attractive tor tourists, the forest service Is opening new country and the city is going to clean unsightly messes of tin cans and oth er refuse from the borders of the highways, and it seems as though things were going to be better when in comes a report that a loan of tin cans has Just been dumped in some new spot. We repeat it. What's the use? There's a place for tin cans, and It is not along the highway. ' Have those who continue to offend in this way no sense of civic pride or public decency? Have they no interest in the improvement of our resources? Do they not realize that they benefit along with everybody else when people are attracted to our country and that they lose with us all when conditions are such as to send them away with criticism on their lips? We can only argue and plead. Will others help by reporting instances of can-dumping on a highway? Then an effort will be made to stop the practice by other methods than argu ment and pleading. What's the use, either, of trying to teach people to put out their camp fires before leaving? One would suppose enough had been Bald and enough signs posted to impress on everyone the need of care in this re gard, and yet six campers at East Jake over the holiday left dangerous fires burning. Did they feel that they had had their outing and it made no difference to them what happened to the woods thereafter? Possibly they will never visit the lake again, but do they want to spoil things for the next man? R.pplirigRhunies'f . m W It ki. w kWa"w ' J k The Auto Peril Let's rise, 0 footsore readers, and from a union strong, to punish all the speeders who rush their cars along; with terrors dire they fill us, they make us weak and pale; they try to maim or kill us, and grumble when they fail. The streets are scenes of danger, where speed laws won't stay- put, and heaven help the stranger who tries to cross on foot ! Some reckless, bonehead driver will promptly climb his frame, and will not care a stiver how many, more he'll maim. Oh, every night I wonder, when I retire to bed, that I'm not torn asunder, that I still have my head. For all the day I'm dodging death cars propelled by fools, and when I reach my lodgings the sweat drips down in pools. I count my legs and knuckles, my wishbones and my hair, my garters and my buckles, to see if I'm all there; and if there's nothing busted I feel that I'm in luck, for I've been chased, disgusted, by outo, ford and truck. It's surely time to punish with more than paltry fines those reckless guys and Hunnish who try to break our spines, who always look for chances to wing the passing gent, and nil the ambulances with victims, boneyard bent. ant trip, going via the McKenxle pass to Seattle and Pendleton, re luming by the Columbia Kiver highway.
