If they want it, or even placidly accept It. there will prols ably he a fair. If they oppose It. It canpot happen.' The h’ea Is not so fanciful as it may sound to those who consider Oregon a small state far from the center of population and Industry and In no position to draw enough customers at the gate to pay for a filr. Oregon's economic isola tion is a disadvantage, that Is true, hut It Is to help cure that disadvantage the fair Is being considered. The northwest Is the area in the nation where most electricity can he developed and naturallj it Is reasonable to presume that the new electronic Industry might want to locate here. A properly conducted fair might convince the le^flfta <>f that Industry to come. Tha argument will not appeal to those Oregohlans who have felt that an Influx of new citizens will «poll the flying. These people have iWh b # n successful in keep ing new citizens away and proi>- ably they didn't really want to. An Investigation Is t»elng con ducted hy Stanfonl Research to determine whether a fair Is pos sible or not. It 1« suspected that the report will be favorable to a fair as a means of célébrât loti. If so. the people can decide the ques tion, not, we hope, on their pteju* dices but on the evidence. Rust.

Years ago, tt was consider ed proper In some circles with which we were familiar to have turkey on Thanksgiving and roast goose on Christmas. Now some enterprising grocer has advertise»’ that It won’t be Christmas with out a turkey. Now this Is not to disparage the gobbling turkey that is the national bird of the youthful and the hungry. It Is as gixwl a sub stitute for roast beef as any fowl and does very well on days when r»ne is not working But In the interest of variety the roasting of gpose seemed <le- drab • The raising of geese seems to have fallen off or at least gotten Into the hands of men wlio fall to make the public rcs|M»nd. A goose Is a silly thing it best although of better dlspo. tit ion than a turkey. Feed him and ie Is happy anti content. He is »roltahlv the least efficient of the mlmals of the barnyard so far as eturning pounds of meat for «Hinds of feed. In these days ihen It is Important to watch he material things it may be that he goose ennnot compete. « YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE AND MINE . . .
