JUST A FEW OBSERVATIONS
When the evening shades begin to fall, we know
that Autumn is just around the bend. When the af
ternoon suns continue to broil, we know that sum
mer is still with us. As the days grow shorter and
shorter, we are awakened to the realization that the
great orbit of life is about midway in its journey to
Capricon. The routine of seasons takes its course
and all life gradually adapts itself to its changes.
Even in this greatest turmoil of all ages the seasons
wield their power. The heat of the desert, the mon
soons of the Indies, the fogs of the north, the snows
of the steppes, play largely with man’s destiny. In
the swiftly passing days the crops will be stored, and
the leaves will begin to turn. Problems of another
season will be facing a struggling nation, and the
battling legions will be contending, not only with
the enemy, but with the forces of changing seasons.

It's trees again. Trees and shade. Witness again
the hundreds of tents, trailers and shacks beneath
the spreading branches of the friendly locusts, which
are doing service for the workers in a defense area,
where man has not been able to provide better hous
ing. These trees provide comforts that would re
quire many shingles and boards, and expensive la
bor. Many a wife, many day sleepers, many babies
who have felt the cooling effects of shade and
breeze in desert surroundings, should be thankful to
this community and the pioneers who planted thou
sands of seedlings here many years ago.

Dogs, dogs, and more dogs. There are enough
dogs in this territory roundabout, mongrels of all de
gree, not a real dog in a hundred, not less than four
regiments of them within 20 miles, eating enough to
feed many soldiers every day. Already they are
preying on turkeys, calves, pigs and sheep, with dog
tood going higher and dogs getting hungrier. While
we admit that the dog is man’s greatest friend, and
all of us love a good dog for his faithfulness and gen
eral uses, like every other good thing, this can be
overdone, and curs and vicious dogs, and packs of
rambling breeds can become a public nuisance that
cannot be condoned. There is a law, and owners are
responsible. Unless something is done by the own
ers of these pets, smart pups, barking hounds, so-
called watch dogs and whatnots, the law will have
to be invoked.
ECHO NEWS ITEMS
September 8 has been set by the
local board for opening of school here
this year, a week later than usual.
Of last year’s teachers, only two will
be on the staff this year, Mrs. Nancy
Spike in high school and Mrs. Aro-
lene Laird in the grades. M. E.
I arive, from Haines, succeeds M. A.
Parker as superintendent. The lat
ter is now working for the aluminum
corporation at Portland.
Vacancies to be filled in the schools
include a primary teacher, seventh
and eighth grade teacher, and two in
the high school. So far no coach has
been secured. Ross Graham, who was
under contract for that position, has
been inducted into the army.
Mrs. John Jordan received a pres
ent of a fine wrist watch this week
from her son Bud who is in army
service somewhere in the Pacific.
Another son, Russell, writes from
