Comment

Day's News
Br FRANK JENKINS
IN THESE chronicles of Southeast
ern Oregon, Harney, Lake and
Malheur have been referred to aa the
lost counties. The extent to which
they have been lost may be Judged
from this Incident:
Over at Lakevlew the other day,
they were planning a celebration of
the completion of grading and grav
eling on the new Yellowstone cut
off. A date somewhere between the
twelfth and the twentieth of July
was finally chosen.
i The leeway was provided so that
Governor Rolph, of California, could
be present.
AFTER It waa determined that lee
way of a week ahould enable
Governor Rolph to fit the celebra
tion Into his plans, the organization
passed on to other business.
Then, more or leas aa an after
thought, somebody suggested that It
might be a good Idea to Invite the
governor of Oregon, which waa done.
rpHERE waa no conscious dlscour-
tesy to the governor of Oregon.
When the suggestion was made, it
waa acted upon cordially and unani
mously. The point involved la that
those people assembled over there In
Southeastern Oregon thought first of
the governor of California when they
were holding a celebration.
THE best known and best loved cit
izen of the great open spaces be
yond the mountains la William
Uanley, much better known aa Bill.
Bill Hanley came to the cattle
country from the Rogue River val
ley, setting out to seek his fortune
t an early age. When he left home,
hi mother gave .him this advice:.
"Be aura to wash often and thor
oughly." "S," he aays, "I kept look
ing around for a place where water
was plentiful and washing would be
easy, and when I found It I aettled
down."
The place where he found water
enough to make washing quits easy
waa about the present location of
bis Double-O and Bell-A ranches
HE HAD np aooner got settled. In
his first camp than he set out,
like a good son, to take his mother's
advice about washing ofter and thor
oughly. Not only did ha wash his face! get
ting clear around behind the ears,
but aet out to purify his clothea. He
was wearing a wool ahlrt at the time,
and It wasn't a marvel of cleanliness
after the trip over from the Rogue
River valley.
. He wanted It clean.
" .
SO HE got him a pot and filled It
with good Harney valley water,
and under the pot he built i fire
and kept it going. In the course of
time, the water came to a boll.
Bill then put in ' aome soap,' and
Into the boiling aoapsuds he cast his
woolen shirt, and then atood over It
and atlrred long and vigorously 'with
A stick. , , . . .
When that shirt came out of the
boiling water It waa CLEAN. a
nOT, alaa and 'alack, It waa only
- a ahadow of the ahlrt It had
been when It went Into the boiling
water as every good housewife
knows Without being told.
Bill says: "When I took that shirt
out of the water and 'dried It and
got a good look at It, It sure looked
to me as If I would have to get a
new and much smaller boy to wear
It." .
w
ILLIAM HANLEY Isn't worrying
much about Vie depression. He
la Just taking It as ft comes, certain
that in Its own good time It will wear
Haelf out.
"The big business men of the big
cities," ha says, "have been building
and building on ft bigger and ever
bigger machine. They kept getting
tt more and more complex, and after
ft while It got so complex that they
didn't know how to handle It and It
got away from them.
"After a while It will run Itself
down and In the process will get rid
of soma of Its complexities, and then
It CAN be handled again."
Pretty sound philosophy. Un't it?
