YOUR PAPER Very often the character of a city la reflected In the kind of a news paper which la published In that par ticular placo. The outside world gets an Idea of tha activities In a commercial way, the social life and tha moral tone of the community through tba news columns. The merchants are Judged from the char acter of their advertising and the aopy that goes Into their advertise ments. Both comparisons are fre quently made aa all publishers know, who ara constantly receiving letters from other and distant places ask ing for sample copies. Naturally the kind of a paper pub lished depends primarily upon the ttaff In charge. But the people of community can have a great deal to aay about what kind of a paper they get It la obvious that on tha smaller dallies tha limited reportorlal staff makes It impossible to cover the en tire city every day. And yet, there are hundreds of Interesting little items wblch go to waste lor want or transmission to the paper. . . , , In every city every person should consider himself a reporter and. see that every Hem of Interest is made public. Most people do not recog. nlze news when tbey see It, but a very little training, which consists merely of remembering that when something la seen that attracts one's attention that it might also Interest some one else, win develop a "nose (or news" In the most prosaic. . Tba Courier Invites everyone ,to help make it a better paper. The telephone brings the editorial room within reach of all parts of the city. If John Jones meets with an acei dent, make a mental note of how, why, when and where and call up. If a baby Is born in your neighbor hood, if some one dies, if you or some relative or friend leaves town or has a guest In the city, if a for mal function or a simple, little par ty is given at your home, by youl lodge, club or society, lot It down and call the Courier. It's the num ber of friends, that a paper has that makes an interesting sheet out of it. The Courier would be pleased to receive reports of social functions, either over the telephone, through the mall, or In person at the office, for publication In the Sunday edi tions. All such Items should be In by late Friday evening or early Sat 0 More Than ICO Good Cooks in Grants Pass The perfect Baking Powder Are You? , KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY QUALITY FIKSI Everything for the Auto C L HOBART CO. urday morning. The ladles are es pecially requested to help la this. The quicker an Item la put In print after tba Incident happens the more valuable It la as a matter of news. Many times a story Is news; today but worthless tomorrow. A re port of all eventa is appreciated as soon after tha happening aa possible. It should not be discouraging if an Item that la handed In doea not get Into print Many times thera are reasons, which are Dot personal at all, which prevent the publication or a perfectly good story. Nor should there ba any delicacy In regard to giving an Item about one's self. Many times that la the only way In which newa about peo ple can be found out, and it la more likely to be reliable and accurate when coming from the flrst'peraon. In our determined effort to over subscribe tha Liberty loan we should not forget the little thrlfy, and war savlnsrs stamns Both serve the same purpose; but the war savings stamp offers a chance for many to help win the war who cannot buy Liberty bonds, and also furnishes a meana of Investing the savings of quarters and dollars. Fine weather we're having. With every drop of moisture is the prom ise of more abundant crops of fruit and farm products, grazing for live stock and water for the miner. DKXIAL OF FALSE ACCVSATIOX Kerby, Oregon April . T18. To be called a pro-German at this time, of all times, when our coun try Is undergoing the perils of this swful world war, la more than I, an American born citizen will bear, much longer, and I take this way to make known to the public that I am a loyal American citizen, and Intend to remain so, In spite of the -idle gosslpers who sowed the seed for this accusation nearly a year ago when my wife and I became mem bers of Kerby branch of Red Cros. False and misleading statements have been made for malicious pur poses, that I was pro-German and did not contribute to the Red Cross. I hereby brand all, such statements as false, and refer to Red Cross re ceipt No. J, 28.222, dated July 10, 1917, signed by R. K. Hackett. The rumor in regard to. this re ceipt has been started three times and I hope this proves satisfactory, to the minds of some who have spread the gossip from door to door, Instead of reporting to proper au thorities. 33 ...

MIsa Anna McCormlck. says that now la the time tbat the bousewire should give some atentlon to tha pre serving of eggs for fall end winter use. Kggs ptit down la the spring have been found to keep better than those laid later tn the year. Only clean, fresh ergs should be used for waterglasalne purposes. Do not use eggs that have - been washed aa they spoil mora easily than unwashed, clean eggs. If suf ficient eggs are not obtainable when tha waterglass solution la Drat made, additional eggs may be added from time to time. Walerglasa Is SO cents a quart and a quart of waterglass will pre serve IS doten eggs. It Is not de sirable to use tha waterglasa solution a second time. Eggs can be water glassed for about two cents doten. Since waterglasa egss remain la ex cellent condition they can ba used In tha fall and winter when fresh eggs are selling for (0 cents or more a dozen. Use the following method when watergtasslng eggs: 1. Select a 5-gallon crock 'and clean It thoroughly after which It should be scalded and allowed to dry. ' 2. Heat a quantity of water to the boiling point and allow It to coot. S. When cool, measure out nine quarts of water, place It In the crock and add the one quart of waterglass, stirring the mixture thoroughly. ' ' 4. Place the eggs In this solution. Eggs may be added from day to day. Be very careful to allow at least S Inches of the solution to covevr the eggs at all times. S. Place the crock containing the preserved eggs In a cool, dry place, well covered to prevent evapora tion. GREAT PATRIOTIC MEETING (Continued from page 1.) will take place next Tuesday, April 16. Every home will be visited and it Is hoped that each man will be ready to say how muph be wishes to subscribe. Public meetings will be held Monday night at Takllma, Bel ma and Kerby.. Good speakers.

JOKE WAS ON SALOON MAN Wat floods Dealer Found That Bundle Ha 8e Obligingly Kept for Cue- tomer Had Its Uses. Aren't the master workmen of the wet goods establishments easy marks? That la what the gentry who live by their wits are asking each other. They know that the proprietor of a wet goods establishment loses his mental balance and Is completely disarmed when he la Invited to have a drink. Re cently two husky-looking Individuals entered a Forty-second atreet snds em porium. One of the pnrty carried an enormous bundle, which he placed on the top of the mahogany. They both called for a drink. "Well, II is hopeful thnt my wife will stop her nagging about the cold weather and being cold when I carry this home," said the man who carried the bundle. At the end of tho bar stood the pro prietor of the wet goods establishment. He seemed curious, so tha two men In vited hliri to have n drink, which wns accepted. One of them explained thnt he hod the finest pnlr of wool blankets that was ever sheared from the backs of sheep In the package.

Well, I most be on my way," said the man, as he picked up the bundle. "Why don't yoo leave them here un til you start ior homer Interposed hi companion. "Good Idei," he said. And turning to the owner of the cafe he asked If he could leave the bundle. , "Sure," snid the proprietor, "but yon had better write your name on It to avoid any mistake." Twelve o'clock came around and the man hadnVcnIM for his bundle. "I can aee that fellow getting more h 1 when he goes home tonight," said the proprietor ss he turned the key In the door. The next dsy the owner of the cafe was the first on the Job. He took a survey of the wet goods and then went to the rear of the store, where the safe was. Here was a surprise for him. He found the door of hla burglar-proof aafe neatly reposing on the pair of downy blankets, which had been need to muffle the sound of the explosion. New York Times. A Chemist's Service, A few days sgo a visitor at the Mln eola aviation camp asked a skilled air chauffeur what were his most trying experiences when two or three thou sand feet aloft. He said the worst was the numbing effect of the cold, high wind, combined often with rain, Mo equipment has yet' been perfected whereby an aviator under these con ditions can protect hlmsolf, A be numbed aviator reduces the efficiency of an airplane CO per cent or more. - This aviator was Informed that the chemists bad solved the problem of garment tbat will keep rain out, that will maintain a comfortable tempera ture of the body und protect from piercing wind.
