The time is at hand when steps
should be taken for the creation of
an organization that' will have to do
with the development of the affairs
of this county as a whole. Either the
Commercial Club should be revived
and made to embrace - the entire
county or a Development League
should be formed, with branches In
the principal towns of the county,
with representatives and members be
longing to the parent organization.
This year Is going to be the turn.
Ing point in the affairs of this coun
ty. It Is true that the big develop
ment will be within the limits of this
city. Dut there are things thruout
the County that will command atten
tion, and these must be cared for by
some central organization capable of
intelligently directing the develop
ment and promotion work needed to
bring them into being. Among' these
will be the extension of the Strahorn
road to Sprague River and the build
ing of the Modoc Northern at least
tas far as Malln. In the consummation
of these two tasks the people of
Klamath Falls will have thehearty
co-operation of the communities af
fected, by such development, but to
mak6 that co-operation effective it
should, be exercised thru some cen
tral organization.
We would suggest that the officers-
of the Commercial Club get to
gether and take some steps toward
the rehabilitation of that organiza
tion. Go out among the business men
of the city and get their views and
then extend your Investigation thru
out the county. Whe"n you have a
fair idea of the general sentiment,
formulate some plan that will be
broad enough to Interest the people
of the entire county, submit them to
the peoplo and then go ahead and
organize along these lines. It will
be but a short time before we will
be .called upon to do some of the big
things that must be disposed of dur.
ing the coming year, and now Is the
jime to get ready for the work.

NOTICE
j The Women'. Missionary Society
Now that the influenza scare Is
over, let us try and keep it down. Let
those who may be suffering from the
symptoms of the disease stay home.
This thing of rushing out among your
friends and acquaintances In the
hopes of getting their sympathy Is a
mistake. Instead of sympathy, you
only get their contempt. They nei
ther want to listen to your troubles
, nor expose themselves to the disease.
Stay at home, keep warm, do the
simple things that the medical pro
fession points out are quite essen
tial, and you will have no great dif
ficulty ln getting well. Where- the
authorities find that anyone falls to
comply with the new rules governing
this disease, they should go after
them hammer and tongs, and after
n few examples huve been made, the
pernicious habit of breaking quaran
tine will stop and with It will dis
appear tho last vestlgu of tho disease.
There Is nothing to fear about influ

exercised.
