So softly and easily it turns the warmth of Summer into the cold of Winter, and the long growing season into a period when plant life rests; and in this month we make preparations for another way of living. After October all things will be much different until the flowers bloom again in the Spring. Of course, these little observations are just platitu dinous, but just the same, how many need to be re minded that their coal bins are not full, or their fuel oil certificates are not completed. How many have their houses and other buildings improved to better resist the blasts of November that often come with surprise? How about leaks in the roof and exposed water pipes? How is your old car that did so well through the Summer days? Have all the children the necessary shoes and clothing for trips back and forth to school? In a few minutes you can list up a winter budget of things that need attention that you have not thought of during the long, pleasanter days that are rapidly drawing to a close. October seems to have been designed in the gener al scheme of things as a transitory month to complete the work of Spring and Summer, and get ready for cold snaps and falling snows. Wonderfully she lays bare the facts of the whole year. Kindly she warns, comforts and commands. She does not chide us for forgetfulness, neglect or lack of thrift, but reminds us in no uncertain language of the labors of the sea sons. Do you hear those leaves dropping? Do you feel that tang in the air? Do you have that comfortable security of days well spent and storage of supplies? Do you get the soberness of the passing days? • Each hunting season takes its toll of human life. It goes on from year to year. Laws are passed regu lating the killing of game, which are also designed to regulate the killers. But there seems to be no reme dies for buck fever and criminal negligence. A mov ing object in the underbrush seems to arouse the im pulse to shoot regardless of clearness of sight, or cau tiousness in a man-filled forest. Without doubt the laws and regulations are too loose, and those we have are not sufficiently enforced. True sportsmanship is a fine art and is high class in Oregon, but laws with teeth in them and a few men in jail might prove high- ly beneficial. By Mr». Rott Htdrick THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14. 1943.
