Every section of Oregon is beginn

opened at Thee DalleB the n lu lb of
last July, according to Dr. G C. Bel
linger who was In Portland for a few
hours Friday. The overcrov.dtd con
ditions at the Salem hospital are be

teen patients in the past two weeks
to the eastern Oregon
institution.
This means that both the patients
who remain at Salem and those who

PURPLE FAIRIES
“Tell us a story, a fairy story,"
asked the sun fairies of Mr. Sun.
“ What shall I
tell you about T ’
asked Mr. Sun
“Anything at all,
any fairy story,"
they said.
“ T b a Fs b o t h
easy and difficult,”
said Mr. Sun.
“ What do you
mean?” the auu
failles asked.
•’•fix*
“It's easy be
cause I can tell
you almost any
fairy story, and
yet It Is difficult
because Instend of
knowing Just what
1 am to start out
"Anything at All." and tell you about
I have to think np
a story nnd Its title. Its beginning and
its ending.”
"Not very hard for the bright Mr.
8un,” the son fairies said.
“Not very hard for the bright Mr.
Sun.” they repeated.
• “Now." Mr. Sun smiled. “I may be
bright in shining, hut I ’m not so bright
In story telling.”
"Nonsense, you’re only being mod
est," the sun fairies said. “Pray
begin your story."
"I will tell you,” said Mr. Sun, “of
the story the King of the Clouds told
after luncheon the other day.
“You know I have been visiting for
some time nnd have not been shin
Ing.
“I've been taking a rest and one
of my resting days was spent In hav
ing a luncheon engagement with the
King of the Clouds.”
“We’ve been resting, too.” said the
sun fairies, “and we know that dny
you had luncheon with the King of
the Clouds for you were not quite
sure whether you would shine and he
wasn’t quite sure whether he would
rain, and we weren’t quite sure
whether we would come out or not.”
“Tlint was the day,” said Mr. Sun
“The King of the Clouds suld that he
illdn’t know whether the story tvns
true or not hut anyway lie said It was
an «Id, olil story of the ( ’loud people
and that Nurse Cog often told It to
the little raindrops and the Mist
grandchildren.
“It seems that years and years ago
the sun used to shine each dn>.
"Every dny I would he bright, ns
bright as bright could be. It's so long
ago I can’t quite remember whether
It Is a true story or not, myself.

"The people on the earth got tired
of the sunshine. They said they didn’t
enjoy anything, no matter how bright
and warm and lovely and sunny un
less there were some other sorts of
days, too.
"Of course there were some who
didn’t agree. Some said they would

The day of individual effort in the life of a city or town
has gone by. We have to look to organizations to get
things done.
If a person has some good idea for a useful and practi
cal improvement, little or nothing is accomplished if that
one person agitates for the proposition alone.
People
would say it was just one person’s notion, and it will prob- j
ably fail to attract attention.
But if some organization takes up that idea and pushes j
it, then it is more generally accepted. People feel that
it is the conviction of a group of persons and must be con
sidered on its merits. Politicians and business men are
impressed, and with active promotion work, it becomes
possible to accomplish something.
That is why every community needs an organization
like a chamber of commerce, and various other organiza
tions and co-operatives, and needs to support them gener
ously after they are formed. Such organizations take
ideas that are lying fallow in the minds of the people and
give them vitality and power through organized influence
and co-operation.
STAY WITH YOUR OWN ROOST
This issue of the Herald carries a news story referring
to a proposed poultry trip to Utah, including several busi
ness men as well as poultrymen of the project. It is pos
sible that this trip to Utah will prove a success and a grea(
help in furthering the poultry industry in our own commur
ity, but, may we ask, why go to Utah? We will admb
that that stat^ is going ahead in this line of production, bul
do the conditions in Utah for poultry raising compare fav
orably with the conditions that are before us?
Egg prices may be better for the Utah poultrymen thar
for tne Oregon producer, and we are ready to wager that
that price and high quality egg production has been ac
complished thru hard work, stay-with-it, and a thorough
study of the conditions in that particular part of the coun
try. Why not buckle down to the facts that confront w
here, study them out, improve what we have, and spend
our time and mdney bettering our own condition? There
is plenty of scientific and practical egg producing litera-
tuure available that is published to meet the conditions
here, as well as paying poultry yards within a stone’s
throw.
People who are longing for publicity can always get i'
by doing useful work for their home communities.
Some folks who forget all about their home stores wher
they have things to buy can remember them well enough
when they want to sell tickets to some entertainment.
The only reason we can see why the poultry condition
in Utah are better than in Oregon is the fact that “the
head man” in Utah is a reality.
The shieks who do their courting in automobiles often
become so absent minded that they have to do traffic
courting later.
