Though love and song may fall
alas!
To keep Hfe' clouds away.
At least 'twill make them lighter
pais
Or fild them If they stay.
And even if ear at moment
flints
A discord o'er life's nappy
strain,
let love but gently touch the
strings
Twill all bo sweet again!

What is the most popular par
ticipant sport in this country? It
was bowling until recently. Now
It is boating. Thirty million
Americans utilizing over 5,000,-
000 pleasure craft now call boat
ing their favorite sport, ine
'pleasure craft business has be
come a billion dollar industry,
That is, it handles a billion dol
lars worth of business annually.
That ancient Greek who advised
young men to get into a business
that specialized either in equip
ping ships or women really had
something.

Why shouldn't cats be required
to have a license, the same as
dogs? In the highly progressive
municipality of Breme rton,
Wash., they are. License for torn
cats, $1. For female cats, $2.

Speedy Dressing
"You seem to enjoy making

wives should get dressed." writes
a Milwaukee matron. "How
speedy are you that way? Don't

Byron's Diet
That : allegedly great lover,
the poet Byron, was inclined to
become fat. To battle the bulges,
he frequently went on a diet of
potatoes sprinkled with vinegar.
Feminine subscribers who are
trying to streamline husbands so
they will look presentable in a
bathing suit might give the By
ronic diet .a try.' How about it,
lady? Con you imagine husband
having potatoes sprinkled with
vinegar for dinner? And nothing
else?
Briefly
There are over 10,000,000 men
in this country who suffer from
some form of baldness. So, if
your wife can still run her fin
gers through your locks, you
should be very careful . . . am
asked by a feminine subscriber
who is to be a June bride wheth
er I like the platinum wedding
ring or the gold one. I strongly
favor the old fashioned gold
band.

Board of Control
Criticizes Practice
At Weekly Meeting
Salem (U.PJ A tendency of
the recent state Legislature to
"legislate b y memorandum"
drew criticism here yesterday at
the weekly meeting of the State
Board of Control.
Secretary of State Earl T.
Newbry objected to the practice
of the Joint Ways and Means
committee of writing notes to
administrative heads telling
them how appropriated funds
were to be spent. State Treas
urer Sig Unander pointed out
that the memorandums do not
have the status of law. Gov.
Paul Patterson commented that
there was an increasing tenden
cy on the part of legislative com
mittees to address directives to
the executive branch.
One of the members of the
joint committee, Rep. Alfred
Corbett (D-Portland), had ob
jected to the practice during the
session which ended last week.
He demanded copies of all such
memorandums which he said
should have the backing of the
entire Legislature, not just com
mittee chairmen.
Cell Block Approved
Completion of a cell block at
the state penitentiary and relo
cation of the power plant out
side the walls of the prison,
authorized by the 1955 Legisla
ture, won approval of the board.
The work will cost some
$100,000. The board allowed a
claim of $4,429 fqr repair of the
roof on the state garage build
ing. The board was also advised
that the congregation of the First
Presbyterian church here would
accept the $332,000 offer the
state has made for the property.
It is within the Capitol Mall
area and eventually will be used
for state purposes.
Newbry Speaks Up
As for that $4,429 item $4,
429.77 to be exact Secretary of
State Earl T. Newbry, who is
custodian of state buildings and
grounds, noted with a bit of bite
in his voice that the legislative
Ways and Means committee was
"very kind" in suggesting that
the roof repair cost come out
of the general operating and
maintenance fund of the capitol
buildings - and grounds account.
He said ways and means gives
him a budget, then takes part of
it away from him. He expressed
belief the bill should have been
paid by the emergency board.
Gov. Paul L. Patterson sug
gested that the Emergency
Board be advised that the bill
had been paid as suggested so
that if Newbry must call on the
board for funds later to replace
it, the board will be on notice.
The board decided to tighten
the procedure involving han
dling of funds of institutional in
mates and patients . by raising
the bonds of some . superinten
dents to $10,000. Superinten
dents affected are those at Ore
gon State hospital, Eastern Ore
gon State hospital, Fairview
home and the state penitentiary.

expansion project, one of 160
