Judge and Clerk Look Alike
Judgfl Earl B. Day.
Earf B. Day, th new county Judge
wib given the oath of offloe yester
day by County Clerk George Carter.
Thl Important fact wu properly
chronicled In the col u mm of thti
paper. But a few moments later the
county Judge wanted to give hta oath
DLCk with Interest, for lnstesd of his
picture appearing In the article, there
appeared the equally pulchrltudlnous
features of .the oath-giving county
cleric, with the caption "Earl B. Day"
beneath I '
As the two portraits above show,
the art editor of the Mall Tribune
has an alibi. The two men DO look
alike. They both have well molded,
strong and clean cut features, they
both have plenty of hair, well brush
ed back and up; they both have nice
ears, straight noses, and firm, cloan
shaven mouths. Both also have the
approved habit of fearlessly looking
the camera man straight In the eye.
But all men are alike In this, no
matter how good, or bad looking, they
are, they bitterly resent being taken
for ANYONE else, A masculine
beauty contest committee would be
hard put to decide between Day and
Carter. lther of them could have
Jobs In Hollywood as Oreek Oods. if
County Clerk Geo. Carter.
they were not serious minded public
officials, with a hatred for the frivol
ous life, but strange as It may seem
the new county Judge was terribly
sore to have his name under the por
trait of George Carter, while George
Carter waa fairly frothing at the
mouth when bis facial ' lineaments
were handed over to the new county
Judge, County Clerk Carter wants
to be county clerk and nothing else.
Above all after six months In offloe
he doesn't want to be mixed up with
ANV MORE COUNTY JUDGES, plc
torlally or otherwise.
But the mischief was done. There
was Carter marked Judge Day and
Judge Day not appearing In the pic
ture at all. And all this at the mo
ment when a new deal and perfect
harmony In county court circles had
been formally announced!
All this paper can do Is humbly
apologize, express Its regret, and
print boih pictures of the two county
officials, properly classified, as above.
Those with Immediate business at
the court house are advised to cut
these portraits out, with the proper
captions, so aa to avoid embarrass
ment, when they call at the county
clerk's office, or seek the Judge at
the county court.
, Harvey L. Armes, Med ford district
manager of the General Petroleum
corporation, returned yesterday from
Portland, where he attended two-
day conference of the district man
agers of tbe Oregon division of the
company.
Considerable time was given at the
conference to the discussion of poli
cies and sales problems of the com
pany; also to plan for continuation
of the sales campaign In behalf of
the new General Four Btai choline
whlQh Is proving most successful.
Reports from the various Oregon
districts were that sales t the new
motor fuel greatly have Increased
and that motorists call for It because
they believe It gives finer perform
ance and greatly Increased mileage,
according to Armes.
Tho local district manager further
said that he was greatly surprised at
the- number of NRA emblems being
displayed by Portland business
bouses. Indicating that the people
are getting solidly behind President
Roosevelt's reconstruction program.
Following the conference. M. D.
Leh, Oregon division manager of the
cofpany, and A. E. Horn, his assistant,
entertained the visiting district rep
resentatlves at a half-day of golf on
the greens of the Multnomah Coun
try club.

There waa a total of 55,947 mar

rate of but 11.4 persons married for
each 1000 population. At the same

hogs weighing more man 235 pounds,
was presented to farm administrators
today by tbe corn and hog belt com
mittee of 25 and Immediately -endorsed
by most of the major farm
organizations.
The program waa presented at ft
conference of corn and bog producers
called by administrators to devise an
emergency program to reduce the na
tlon'a hog population as a result of
an acute feed shortage in most of the
corn belt.
Earl C. Smith, Chicago, chairman
of the committee, aatd the program
would remove from tbe domestic mar
ket a aubstantial amount of the po
tential hog tonnage and would have
the effect of Improving hog prices
which have been recently depressed
because of the heavy marketing ol
hogs by farmers who are short of teed.
Proceed of the processing tsx
which would be levied for one year,
would be used to buy up four million
young hogs weighing between 35 end
100 pounds from August 15 to Octo
ber I.
For these, the committee recom
mended the following schedule of
prices: .For pigs weighing from 25
to 40 pounds, 89 a hundredweight:

pounds, 68: 61 to 70 pounds, 7-50;
