Autocaster Service. WE SAW a report the other day on the aviation industry, which indicates that the building and op eration of aircraft has suffered less from the industrial depression than any other line of business. More people are flying, more young peo ple are growing up air-minded, air planes are getting better, safer and swifter, and it seems a pretty safe thing to predict that by the time the children of today are grown up air travel will be as commonplace to them as automobile travel is to the grownups of now. We haven't the figures, but we imagine that in proportion to the number of people who travel by air there are no more fatal accidents than there are among motorists. Commercial aviation is getting saf er because safety is the first con sideration of the designers of com mercial aircraft Only a few years ago most of the planes in the air were left-overs from the war per iod. Safety is not the first consid eration in military airplanes; speed and maneuverability are the prime requisites there. Army and navy fliers have to take enormously greater risks than passengers in commercial airplanes should ever be called upon to take. And in fourteen years of peace the world has learned much more about mak ing air travel safe than it had learned in the nine years between the first flights and the entry of the United States into the war. THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. Autocaster Service. WE DON'T know who the happi est man on earth is, but we do know who the unhappiest people are. They are the ' people who thought they could buy happiness with money and who, now that their sources of money have dried up, find themselves thrown upon their own resources, and have dis covered that those resources are not sufficient to bring them happi ness. We do not know whether to feel sorry for these people, espec ially the younger ones, or indigna tion at their parents and teachers, for giving them or permitting them to get a wrong slant on life. We confess to a considerable de gree of indignation when we hear people advising young folks to buy this, that or the other thing be cause it will make them happy. We think there are very few commod ities, and those very inexpensive ones, that can make any material contribution to individual happi ness. Possessions may enlarge one's sense of self-importance. Money may enable people to do things which give temporary pleasure. But the idea that "the rich are any happier than the poor is just as false now as it always has been. We think one of the real bene fits of these hard times to many people has been that it has forced them to develop their inward re sources and depend upon their own efforts for happiness. We have cer tainly heard much more complain ing from people who still have a good deal of money left than we have heard from people who did n't have much of anything to lose. The man or woman who has learn ed in childhood to get along with little is far better adapted to face the realities of life than the one who has always been able to buy whatever pleased his or her fancy. Those are the unhappy ones today the ones who cannot spend mon ey as they used to spend while the happy ones are those who never had any money to spend. Sunday School n a Lesson u International Sunday School Lesson foi April 17. THE CALL OF ABB AM Genesis 12:1-9 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. Since much of the record is omit ted necessarily in this course, you should read the intervening Scrip ture. For example, the Flood and the Ark of Noah figure in the in terim and again the earth is wide ly peopled. From the sin of Adam and Eve God, in His love, laid out a plan of redemption and now the time had arrived to begin to devel op it The aftermath of the flood showed that such a punishment would not turn people from their sins. God now purposes to provide a Redeemer in time from among a race that He would especialy choose and bless. The beginning of the Hebrew nation started with this call of Abram. In fact it began when Terah, the father, was called from Ur of the Chaldees, but the cavalcade stopped in Mesopotamia and no further progress was made until Abram was directed to take his immediate family, his nephew Lot, and their possessions, and pro ceed to Canaan. Here was an adventure in faith that Is to be classed with the great est expeditions in all history. It was a trek of at least 300 miles un der the most adverse conditions. Full encouragement was given, however, in the vision with Its at tendant promises. Places in Palestine that are fa miliar to every student now are named. One camping place was at Shcchem, where the modern travel er can still have a drink from the well of Abraham. This was the writer's privilege in 1924. Bethel is also named, and we come to it again in this quarter when we Jour ney to Haran with Jacob. At both topping places Abraham estab lished an altar and worshipped God. He had found that Jehovah wu as much there as in the coun tries whence he came. And here the covenant was renewed, with the former injunctions, recorded in the Golden Text. "Be thou a blessing," Genesis 12 2. W.C.T.U. NOTES MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter. When is a man drunk? This question arises in the actions against drunken drivers. It is not an easy queston to answer. As one writer saye, "It is like the old ques tion frequently asked but never satisfactorily answered When does a pig become a hog?" It might be possible to say that in one envir onment, a man would be considered sober, while in another he might be considered drunk. Some persons would regard one as sober if he could keep on the sidewalk, or pos sibly if he could keep on his feet. But in the growing complexity of modern life and our high-speed, machine civilization, a new defini tion is necessary. In England it has been necessary to change the definition of drunkenness in con nection with motor car driving. Sir Arthur Newsholme, former princi pal medical officer of the British ministry of health, has emphatical ly stated that a single drink of whiskey or beer may make the dif ference between life and death, and twenty-six eminent physicians have memorialized the minister of trans port to issue warning cards to mo torists that a single drink of whis key or beer may slow down the muscular respones as much as one half or even three-quarters, so that action which normally would re quire only one-fifth of a second would be slowed to two-fifths or even four-fifths. The Expert Com mittee of the British Medical Asso ciation reports to the transport minister that "Fine shades of self control might be lost without any apparent signs of alcoholic intoxi cation. The first effect of alcohol is on the higher centers and is sub jective, even if no objective symp toms occur." And yet here in America, where the drink traffic has been outlawed, and where al most every man i3 a driver of an automobile, some seemingly other wise intelligent folks are arguing that the drink traffic should be re stored in some form. The whole scheme is to make it easier to ob tain liquor. Suppose the muscular action is slowed down one half, so that it re quires two-fifths of a second to ac complish a movement which nor mally requires only one-fifth of a second, and suppose two automo biles are approaching each other at the rate of forty miles per hour, the two cars would travel 47 feet while the required muscular move ment was being performed, instead of twenty-three and one-half feet It does not require much exper ience on the roads to realize that that 23 feet would many times mean a wreck and loss of life. And when we realize that a single drink of intoxicating liquor may be the cause of such a disaster, it would seem that sensible people would be doing their utmost to remove that hazard. And when we consider that in some instances that hazard may be increased two or three times by a single drink, we wonder that people are not asking that per sons who drink even very small amounts of liquor be barred from driving cars on the public roads. That would probably be considered extreme, but if you thought that your life and the lives of your wife and children were endangered by an incompetent driver, you would want him excluded from the road while you were traveling on it.

H L2T;-.. 7L M JOH NJOS C PH GAINVD A Word of Caution How often a neighbor discovers something that "broke up" his cold in record time. He at once be comes a walking apostle of that remedy. Within a week, perhaps, a half-dozen of his acquaintances are taking the same thing. It mat ters not whether it is a nostrum or a regular prescription it gets into promiscuous use very quickly. Once I prescribed for an old man who had ulcer of the stomach; he told me two weeks later, that he had furnished at least four of his neighbors with that same prescrip tion! It is a very pernicious, not to say dangerous thing, to recom mend medicines for people who have not been duly examined by a competent physician although the motives are of a kind, helpful spir it. You see, no two people are alike, even with the same disease. Two cases of influenza may demand en tirely different remedies. What would be indicated for one, might be dangerous for another. No two hearts are exactly alike. The same medicine, if it is medicine at all, acts differenty with different indi viduals; these are truths. The custom of buying stock rem edies for "colds" is one of the most reckless especially those adver tised to "cure a cold in one day." Anything that works that fast is most surely dangerous. Just imagine a factory turning out suits of clothes all the same size and length and color and urg ing our people to buy them, but it would not be dangerous like medi cine. Securities Fail to Stop - Wheat From Gaining Wheat prices continued to show net gains for the week, In spite of the depressing influence of the se curity markets, says Portland Grain exchange for week ending April 9. The slow foreign demand has been disappointing to exporters; high tariffs and the ability of im porting countries to cut their wheat consumption has altered anticipat ed demand. Australia and Argen tina shipments continue heavy and Vancouver, B. C, has been enjoy ing a moderately active export de mand at about 5c to 7c a bushel under the present price of local wheat, favorable exchange based on Canadian discount aiding. The break In wheat prices Friday was the worst experienced for some time; crop damage reports being utterly Ignored. The Gov ernment Report released after the close gave winter wheat a condition of only 75.8 with an estimated yield of 458 million bushels or 42 million under the average of the private estimates. This had a most stimulating effect on Saturday's market and the loss of Friday was recovered. There was no local export busi ness but the cash position here re mained tight, shipments from the Interior being extremely light. Portland Futures show net gains for the week as follows: May up 3 3-8c, July up I l-8c and Septem ber up 2 5-8c per bushel. Try a Gazette Time Want Ad Joseph By cutting a huge 12 by 24 foot kitchen in half a homemak er in Joseph has obtained a play room for the children where it is possible for her to keep an eye on their activities. Because it opens off the kitchen the room is usually warm in the winter. Equipment can be arranged to better advan tage in the smaller kitchen, thus saving many steps and much time, according to this homemaker, Lamb Prospects Improve But Crop Appears Short Improved conditions for a less than normal lamb crop, but some decline in prices recently on new crop lambs were reported by the O. S. C. Extension service at the close of the first week of April. With an abundance of moisture in the soil, Oregon ranges and pas tures are now making good growth. Conditions in the high mountains, where the snow covering exceeds the normal for this time of the year, are encouraging to stockmen. Many sheep and cattle, especially in southern counties, are being moved to early ranges. While some new crop lambs from Willamette valley flocks have al ready gone to market, lambing in the range bands of eastern Oregon is just well under way. In valley flocks the lamb crop was heavy, but in the bands of eastern and southern Oregon, considerable loss of old ewes occurred and more than normal loss of lambs due to poor condition of ewes following a se vere winter on poor quality feed. In Douglas county where early market lambs are a feature, sheep came through the winter in fair shape despite limited feed, and are now making good progress on bet ter than normal grass. The lamb crop is shorter than in recent years on account of unfavorable weather in January when the heavy lamb drop occurred. With creep feeding more common this year, lambs have made good growth and some al ready weigh 60 pounds or more. New lamb prices declined as in creased supplies became available. First offerings of the season brot as high as $10 a hundred in nearly all markets. At the close of trad ing on April 8, good to near choice spring lambs sold at Portland at $7.50, with lower quotations report ed at San Francisco. Thirty to 40 per cent of the California early lamb crop has left growers hands. These have mostly gone into coast markets, though some have gone to the central west and a few cars of dressed lambs to the Atlantic coast, stove so I moved the work table in to the pantry. I took down all the old wide shelves and had narrower ones put in at more convenient places, also added some 'built-ins.' Then I painted up and now have a more convenient and cheerier place to work in, all at the cost of a very little lumber and paint. Also, I put a col(J cupboard on the back porch. There I keep vegetables, apples and the like. Left overs and milk are placed in the cold cupboard in the pantry." nOLITICAL Announcements FOB COUNTY' COMMISSIONER.
