Gould NOTHING DONE YET We wonder what it takes to make the citizens of Cave Junction do what they should do? A few weeks ago we told you that a garbage dump was a necessity, and that we should find a place where all the garbage from the city could be dumped. As fas as we know, not a move has been made to find such a place. It won't be long until the health authorities come out and tell you, in no uncertain terms, that you must do something about the garbage. Then you'll have to do something. Why don't we do it before this happens? We still think a .Junior City Council could be formed and elected by the people and do the things that must be done in a growing place like Cave Junction. We are going to have to do something to take care of the growing pains of the city. Let’s have a committee meeting to discuss this matter and get something done. : ssse sees see ssssseeeseeessss ess eessesesaatssssageeessaeeM44*esess^B E JOSEPHINE FAIR TO BE SEPTEMBER 10-12 i Drs.

He did n.entii n Cave Junction but didn’t s:iy a blamed word about Todelope. Wliassa matter, whassa matter! 5 i a: Cave Junction has a Postof­ fice, Cave City hus the stores and places of amusements and Tode­ lope has a derned mean disposi- closely as to invite a collision with an approaching car and the other is failure to dim lights when driv­ ing directly behind a vehicle at night. Several accidents have been caused by cars driving jtoo close to the center strie, particularly in fog, it was said. Under such con-1 ditions, drivers were warned to keep well to their own side of the center stripe in order to avoid sideswiping an approaching car which also might be too close to the center line. Failure to dim lights when fol­ lowing another car may be as ser­ ious as failing to dim when meet­ ing a car. Oregon residents in­ formed the safety division. Bright lights reflecting back into the eyes of the driver from his windshield or rear-view mirror may tempor­ arily blind the driver and cause an accident. Tn the interest of safer driving. Snell urged drivers to remember [ these two dangerous practices anil avoid them in their driving. o-------------- All Type of Clocks Repaired Clarence E.

The paper is tabloid form print­ i ed on a Mimeograph and is quite , snappy with jokes and stories of j local interest. The paper is a member of the Associated Press, : so it states, and carries press dis­ : patches, but is only published once a week. The paper had 18 pages, approx­ imately four columns wide, for its December 13th edition and most of the advertising, which was quite generous, was mimeographed in two colors. Gene Dawson is the editor and is published by the Ko­ diak Publishing company, one column, "Cornin’ and Go- the Mirror chronicles the ar- rival of Gordon Leonard of Cave Junction, and I Earl Haider of Grants Pass. In I the editorial col- utr.n we find two interesting ar­ ticles: “There are no hopeless sit­ uations; there are only men who have grown hopeless about them.” AND “You can’t tell it farmer girl that the stork brings baby calves, because she knows it's the bull.” Quite diversified and indeed interesting.
