Life
Life how many expressions and
proverbs there are concerning it!
How many lectures, books, and pic
tures based on the subject "Life"
are given to the public. Everyone
has a different solution to this prob
lem of life, yet no one seems to have
found the correct answer to it.
"It's a great life if you don't
weaken." The truth of this phrase
sometimes seems stranger than Ac
tion. Sometimes we think it is im
possible to carry our life burdens.
We feel as if we want to drop all
our cares and worries and weaken
under our load. Yet, something
always spurs us onward and tells
us to keep going.
The problem of life carries with
it many other problems which seem
to grow more complex as we are
forced to face them. Each prob
lem appears to bring with it two
more which are more difficult still.
However, if we had no problem of
life to compute, what would be the
use of living? So we might as well
drudge onward with life to an un
known goal.
"Life is a problem,
And this is the test of it:
He is the wisest
Who just makes the best of it."

Let's QuitKilling
Entering the last six two-week
periods devoted to directing atten
tion to six major causes of acci
dents, the statewide "Let's Quit
Killing" drive Sunday began to con
centrate educational and enforce
ment activities on defective and
unsafe equipment on Oregon auto
mobiles. Figures derived from a voluntary
free testing station operated in
Portland during the past month
have revealed an average of 17 per
cent of all cars operated In Oregon
have defective brakes, while about
37 per cent have defective lights,
sponsors of the safety drive pointed
out. Approximately 10 per cent of
more than 8,000 cars tested in Port
land were found to be defective in
both particulars lights and brakes.
Eradication of these defects by
close checking of safety elements
of equipment by motorists should
be a factor in reducing Oregon's
mounting auto death toll, believes
the Oregon State Motor association,
one of the sponsors of the safety
campaign.
Suspension and revocation of op
erator's licenses as a means of re
moving unfit drivers from the high
way resulted last month in 66 rev
ocations by the secretary of state
for conviction of major traffic law
violations.
In Morrow county during October
there were no convictions reported
by justices.
SALE WELL PATRONIZED.
The auction sale of personal

Thanksgiving dates back a good
many years to our forefathers. But
what interests us the most Is the
Thanksgiving of today.
We have much to be thankful for.
Many have gone the last year and
we still remain; many have suf
fered agony, sickness, disease and
pain, yet we are well; many have
lost all financially, yet we still have
enough to eat and wear and a place
to sleep.
We as an organization are thank
ful for our many friends and cus
tomers and wish you all God speed
and say with the great writer "Let
us give thanks."

SEEING LIGHT
FOG UCHT
See this correct
floor lamp!
e This new, 2-tone
bronze floor lamp adds
beauty to any room and
is scientifically correct.
It dispels "Fog Light";
provides ample light for
perfect vision; enables
you to play cards, read
or sew in comfort and without
eyestrain. Equipped with the mar
velous new 3-way Mazda bulb,
which permits you to select your
most comfortable intensity of
light 100, 200 or 300 watts. You
can get this modern lamp, com
plete with bulb and shade for as
little as 12.95
"FOG LIGHT" is tht iaatir-tont bt-
tween seeing light and dim light. It is
inadequate tor reading or any severe visual work, yet
it gives no clear warning to your eyes. Your vision is
adjusted to it by barmtul tension, which, il repeated
tor a prolonged period, results in eyestrain. Only tba
Sight Meter detects "Fog Light" accurataly and
scientifically.
0 The next time you feel fagged
especially after an evening of read
ing or working in someone else's
house just sit down and think
about the kind of light your eyes
have been enduring.
Nine chances out of ten, accord
ing to a scientific survey, you have
spent three or four hours under n
adequate light. They were either
improperly placed so that they re
flected a glare into your eyes, or
they gave you only "Fog Light"
instead of the natural light that
would have made you comfortable.
After all, your eyes were made
for the out-of-doors. Reading and
sewing and studying and writing
and all such indoor occupations
are newer, by thousands of years,
than the kind of seeing our eyes
were made for.
Electric light can almost make
up for this tremendous change. But
your alow-complaining eyes won't
tell you in time. You need a more
accurate instrument and now sci
ence has produced it It is the Sight
Meter, that measures light as ac
curately at a ther
mometer measures
heat.
Pacific Power &
Light Company hat
