Every now and again some joke or quotation makes the rounds of newspapers, that seem to find the right spot in our sense of fitness or humor. This week we ran on to the following one. and is taken from the Grants Pass Bulletin: Having dibble-dabbled around in journalistic circles for nigh on to so many years, we usually keep our type writer eye peeled for such stuff as news is made of. The old standard test was “If dog bites man. that’s not news: but if man bites dog. that is news.’’ W’ell .the Redmond Spokesman’s sharp-eyed (eared) news gatherer came up last week with on that tickles our ticklish spot. It seems that the city last week was flushing out a new’ water main. Just as a dog came up to investigate a hydrant, the thing cut loose with a flood, sending the startled pooch tearing off down the street all a-drip. ARE WE GOING TO HAVE ECONOMY . . . With the end of the term for the 81st Congress com ing into sight, probably some time in August, and with a tendency of some congressmen to apply economy in allowing of appropriation bills, it w’ould seem wise to us to have Congress really get down to brass tacks in considering the Hoover report for streamlining and economizing the government. Along this line, there seems to be some movement in adjoining areas to form committees to arouse pub lic i iterest in the Hoover recommendations, and to bring out some of the things needed to be done to get some action.

One has only to drive into the public picnic areas of Oregon and California to see how utterly careless people can be in the matter of gar bage disposal. Scattered cans and empty beer bottles, paper plates, potato chip bags and bread wrappers cer tainly don’t enhance the beauty of any picnic spot. In spite of state laws which prohibit dumping of garbage on or near highways or upon private property, men and women who should know better and most of them certainly were raised to know better, think little of leaving a litter of the above mentioned garbage when they leave after a picnic. Most of them certainly would Exams for Packer Listed not think of doing that way at home or on their front by U. S. Civil Service The field board of the U. S. or back lawns. . .
