It’s spring, the season when lift;
in every form blossoms at its fullest,
when hearts seem to thaw out, wor­
ries disappear and men are given new
courage, new ambitions and new
hopes.
This year spring has been a word
and season to fear all over the world
for it has meant spring offensive, a
plan o f the Nazis to turn the season
of abundant life into a season o f ruth
less death and destruction; a plan to
spread bitterness and hate thruout
the world.
There is little doubt that the sprinp
offensive whatever form it takes will
be a terrible ordeal for those who are
victims o f it, but even Hitler won’t
be able to wipe from the face o f th<
earth that spirit which pervades
spring and which has been victorious
over all destructive forces since the
world began.
V e te rin a ry S u rg eon
He will b .2 met by a force borne
out o f nature which can’t be reckon,
ed with in terms o f manpower, plane
power, bomb tonnage or submarines,
a force that can’t be snuffed out by
gun fire and which gives men the cou
rage they need to perform miracle?
in fighting for their lives and the
things they hold dearest to them.
Perhaps in planning his spring o f­
fense Hitler didn’t bargain with the
fact that the most powerful enemy
he will have to battle with is spring
itself spring in the hearts o f true
men and women.

Defense Savings Bonds seem to bi
the right answer, particularly when
they will be offered at a fair rate of
interest and will be easy to redeem
any time we get hardup for funds.
Series o f larger bonds will be o f­
fered to big investors and bankers,
but the small 10-year bonds and sav»
ings stamps are being issued primar­
ily to attract the people as whole,
from the poorest family in town to
the richest.
In May a drive will be started to
promote the sale o f these bonds. But
most o f us won’t take a lot o f per­
suading. We know now that the gov­
ernment is legally bound to spend
billions on defense, we know that ev­
ery one o f us must eventually contri.
bote to finacing that program. And
roost of- ue would prefer to do our
part ift’ a voluntary patriotic way
than bq forced to pay the tax collec­
tor latest on. v

to send prices skyrocketing unless
part o f this money is put back into

Furthermore,
the government considers it impor­

They will be on sale at the local
post office in denominations ranging
from $25 to $1000 and will be supple,
mented by Postal Savings Stamp,
ranging in price from 10 cents to
$5. The bonds will be sold at 75 per
cent o f their face value, that is a $25
bond will actually cost $18.75, and
they will mature in ten years. They
can be redeemed at cost plus interest
at any time during the ten year per-
iod.
By this plan similar to' the Liber­
ty loan drive o f the last war the gov­
ernment not only hopes to raise sev­
eral billion dollars for its defense
program but also hopes to curb pos­
sible inflation.

Marking its coming of age anni­
versary with discussion* centering
upon ‘ ‘the responsibilities of twenty-
one years’ practice in political mat­
ters” the National league of women
voters will hold its biennial genera'
council at the Hotel Washington on
May 6, 7 and 8.
Miss Maiguerite M. Wells, Nat
ional president »-ill lead the informal
first evening discussion which is tc
focus upon the League’s ability tt
meet the tesLs o f the present time.
"Twenty-one years ago the league
o f Women voters was founded on the
idea that a democracy’s success was
dependent upon the intelligence
and devotion of its voting citizens,”
Miss Mills said. “ No one foresaw then
the crucial test a short time was to
bring. Twenty-one years of practice
in being both intelligent and active
about political matters lays upon tht,
league a responsibility to which it n
going to face up squarely during the
three May days o f meetings in 1941.
We need time to make sure we are
doing our best and in the best way in
this bad time.”
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt will re­
ceive the deicg; .es at the White
House following the first afternoon
session. Mrs. Roosevelt formerly wa:
active in the New York league of
women voters and has frequently gi
ven the league credit for much of
her early training in citizenship.
The General Council also will con­
sider such changes in the league pro­
gram as are necessary to meet alter­
ed conditions, suggested changes fal
ling in the fields o f education, na,
tional defense and foreign policy.
The league o f Women voters was the
first great national women’s organi­
zation to give active support to the
lease-lend bill.
Attending the General Council will
be the fourteen-member national
board and the president, one addi­
tional repi ensetative, and two visi-
tars from each state league. The Na­
tional Board is to meet for two days
preceeding and three days following
the council.

Douglas fir fence posts used un­
treated have given better service in
the experiment post farm at Oregon
state college than those charred or
treated with asphalt emulsion accor­
ding to the latest progress report on
preservation treatment o f fence posts
prepared by T. J. Starker professor
of forestry and ¡issued by the Oregon
engineering experiment station..
All o f the untreated, charred and
asphalt emulsion treated Douglas fir
posts set some 10 years ago have now
failed and been removed as have
several other species included in
the 1442 posts which are under test
since the experiment started. Untreat
ed Douglas fir gave an average ser­
vice of 82 months charred Douglas
fir average seivice 76 months and as
phale emulsion treated Douglas fit
only 75 months o f slightly over six
years.
Other species that have completely
failed with an average service of
from 4 H to six years are cottonwood
alder, madrone, big-leaf maple and
small sixed cascara posts. The var­
ious cedar and juniper posts are still
in good condition after 10 years and
none of the Douglas fir posts treated
by the so-called salt method have
failed
Douglas fir posts treated with
crankcase oil and creosote have not
lasted as well as those treated wit!
creosote alone. A post is considered
to have failed when it gives way un
der a 50-pound pull two feet from the
ground.
