It's a pleasure to say "Thank You" WE'RE often asked why we go to all the expense of putting the Standard Symphony ' Hour on the air year after year without tying in a "plug" for our products. Actually, thou sands of people are surprised that we never make an adver tising use of this extremely pop ular radio feature a perennial headiiner among headliners. Well, it's not that we don't consider our products worthy of the finest things we can say about them. It's not that we're highbrow. It's simply that we believe it our function to per form certain services of a civic nature which have no direct connection with our commer cial activities. When you come right down to it, almost everybody buys our products at one time or another so the public is our customer. We do our best for our stock holders and for our employ ees. And we don't see why we shouldn't do something for our collective customer who makes the whole thing possible. In fact, we feel that here, once more, we should do our level best. So, the truth is, the Standard Symphony Hour heard every Thursday evening over the Pa cific Coast is not intended as a means of selling goods, but as a way of saying "Thank you" for purchases already made by millions of listeners. Yet if the Symphony Hour leads you to buy our products, it's all right with us.

It was stated today by Arthur K. Crews. Junnor district' agent of the U. S. biological survey. "It Is not the number of coyotes trappel but the kind that Is Impor tant," Kir. Crews said. "Coyotes with tt:ree legs have previously escaped from traps and are therefore trap wary. Handicapped by the lass or leg. they are unable to prey on wild animals nnd so they confine their raids to domestic tnrm stock, killing off chickens and turkeys In large numbers. "Our men have been concentrating their control operations In the form areas because our primary object Is to protect domestic stock and wipe out the farm predators. Undoubtedly they could make a better numerical record If they spread out to Include the wild country in t elr operations. But first we want to clean up the agricultural centers." More than 18 coyotes have been killed, only the three-legged animals being cited to show the kind of con trol work being done, Mr. Crews said. Most or the three-legged coyotes werf caught In the Soma Valley and Eagle Point farm districts, he added. It e three-legged coyotes were un doubtedly trapped by bounty hunt ers under the old control system, the anlmnls escaping to become solely farm predators, Mr. Crews said.
