Have You A House To Rent?
This question has been asked of us many times
in the past month. It seems that the housing situ
ation in this fair city is getting more acute as time
goes on. With the many new developments going
on in Hermiston and in neighboring towns it is nec
essary that more houses be obtained to take care of
the added inhabitants.
What steps can be taken to relieve the situation
is beyond our knowledge. However, it is getting to
be an old story that there are no vacant houses here
and Hermiston is bound to lose many new citizens
unless something is done in the near future.
It Pays To Play Safe
A total of 328 lives were claimed in Oregon due
to traffic accidents in 1938—a huge sum, yet a de
crease of nine per cent over 1937 when 361 deaths
occurred. This decrease is not just chance or a law
of averages but is the result of a definite prevention
program sponsored by Earl Snell, secretary of state,
and his co-workers.
This reduction in lives lost is the result of hard
efficient work, that has grown out of the state-wide
program which was launched approximately two
years ago and has finally begun to bear fruit. Var
ious means have been taken to educate the driving
public in ways and means to cut down accidents.
Press stories have been published, school children
have been taught, better highways have been built,
and honest law enforcement under modern highway
codes have left an impression on autoists that safety
pays.
Accidents cost lives, money and unhappiness—
safe driving costs nothing. Let’s all play safe.
