Someone asked Psppy Millar last
week hoar ha stayed so spry at
Blnety. Pappy told him:
"Wall, air whan I work, I work
hard. When I set, I set loose. When
I think, I go to sleep."
According to Doc Holllirter, that
formula font far amiss. "Hard
work," says Doe, "never wore out
anyone before hla time, providing
he knew how and when to relax."
Doc tunuelf works overtime,
with his fiaytime patients at the
office, and Ms evening calls- And
when he gets home he takes It easy
with a mellow glass of beer and
chats with the missus until it's
time to go to bed.
Prom where I sit, relaxing Is a
fine art especially In these tense,
fast-moving times. And there's
nothing like a temperate glass of
beer enjoyed with pleaant com
pany to restore that easy frsme

If Oregon is to
have the telephone
service it needs
If the people of Oregon are to have the amount and kind
of telephone service they are demanding and should be
furnished, we must have enough price relief to meet
current wages and costs and to keep our credit sound.
Our price levels in Oregon have lagged far behind
general price levels. The increase in revenues granted last
January, the first increase in over a quarter of a century,
averaged only 9H per cent. We wish we could pay post
war prices for all that we buy and charge only slightly
more than prewar prices for what we have to sell but
this is impossible.
Our earnings in Oregon, including the rate revisions
granted last January, won't do the job. Current earnings
on the dollars invested in Oregon are less than half of
what are needed to do the job.
Between now and the end of next year we should
spend $26,500,000 to enlarge and improve the telephone
system to meet the needs of the people of Oregon. To
do this we must go to investors for money. Investors are
alike in one thing they put their dollars where they can
expect safety and a fair return.
To provide a fair return, we are filing new rate sched.
ules with the Public Utilities Commissioner of Oregon.
