Salem The state's third
largest industry, the visitor
and travel business, from all
indications' promises another
record year, possibly even larg
er than last year's record ol
S121.000.000, the Travel Infor
mation Division of the Oregon
State Highway Department an
nounced this week.
Beginning at S25.000.000 in
1935, the travel business in Ore
gon has consistently increased
each year through the coopera
tion of the people of Oregon,
chambers of commerce, high
way associations and the Travel;
Information Division.
Millions Rtad of Oregon I
This year Oregon travel and j
vacation facalities have been
publicized to a total of 88.099.-;
509 magazine and newspaper:
subscribers. Full page color ad
verttsements have been run in'
such magazines as Saturday Eve- j
ning Post, Holiday, National i
Georgraphic and Coronet mag-j
azines. In addition many other '
magazines have published black;
and white Dnd two color, one "
and two-column ads telling the;
Oregon variety-vacation story, j
A total of 37 209.709 news-i
paper subscribers have been ln-j
vited to take Oregon vacations !
this year in an advertising cam-;
pa:gn stretching from coast to i
Both newspaper and magazine f
co?st. '
Both newspaper and mag-l
asking potential Oregon visit-j
ors to send for free informs j
tion from the Travel Informa l
tion Division in Salem. These'
coupons have produced over
85 000 enquiries thus far this'
season and promise to bring ov-j
er 10.000 more before the end
of the summer i
Littraturt Mailed I
The Travel Information Di i
vision distributed over S00.000
pieces of literature last year I
to persons wanting Oregon in
formation on everything from
climate to dude ranches. Hun
dreds of these are answered by
special letter with specific in
formation on travel and vaca
tion facilities. Thousands more
are sent a 32-page four color
booklet showing the highlights
of the Beaver State's vacation
wonderland. A form letter en
closed in the booklet asks en
quirers to write for more spec
ific information after deciding
what they want to see and
where they want to trvel in
Oregon.
The Travel Information Div
ision has found that the visitor
industry is one in which every
one in Oregon shares and
every dollar that comes into
Oregon from out- iot- state is
above and beyond the normal
in-state income. The restaurant
man shares by selling more
meals, the farmer shares by sell
ing more food to restaurants,
the automobile owner shares by
obtainining better hich
ways through visitors' gas tax
and everyone eUe shares as the
tourist dollar rolls around the
slate.
Mora Forecast
Through the continued coop
eration of Oregon's visitor
hosts the people themselves
the state's third largest in-j
dustry promises even larger re
turns in the future. Already the j
Travel Information Division is I
planning next years advertu-l
ing campaign which will invite j
millions to enjoy the natural,
wonders of the Beaver state, j
And next year ever a million
out-of-state cats will cross Ore-j
gon's borders to enjoy the!
state's modern facilities and!
vacation pica-ures. Ho'pitable
Oregomans will be readv for
them.

Death has struck again in our
little community, this time in
a car accident with Bobby Rom
inger being instantly killed
when the pickup he was riding
in wnh two other local boys
turned completely up side down
crushing him. It seems the boys
were coming south on the Beagle
road when the car bit some
deep ruts and loose gravel cross
wise throwing it out of control.
The lad driving the car known
here as a careful driver was
heart broken over the tragedy
but anyone not familiar with the
road conditions at this point
could have had the same thing
happen to them. Tee community
deeply sympathizes with the
grief stricken family In the loss
of their son.
One cay last week Mrs. Don
Wheeler who lives in the west
end of the community heard a
disturbance in her back yard
and on investigating saw her
house cat and a large rattlesnake
having a little quarrel in a few
feet of the house. Tne snake with
his rattles buzzing was all
cocked and primed and ready
to strike, while the cat kept
reaching out and dodging back
seemingly daring him to strike
and the snake apparently real,
izing that if he did and missed,
the swift moving cat would '
pounce on him while he was ex
tended and before he could pos
sibly get back into coil.
About this time Mrs. Wheeler
who had quietly went for the
necessary tools returned wear
ing a pair of boots and armed
with a shovel and while the
snake was still occupied in try
ing for an opening with the cat
a well directed blow with the
shovel ended the battle. Mrs.
Wheeler didn't tell us where
the ranch dog was during this
time.
