Co-operation of Every Citizen Asked
to Make Enumeration of Popula
tion and Resource? Complete
Will Appoint Enumerator. ,
?
' O. W. Fairfield, representing the
district supervisor of census, W A.
Terrell, of Wasco, Oregon, arrived
In Klamath Falls last night to
straighten out the work of enumera
-!
tion in this city. Two enumerators
are working, Mrs. Frank Morris in
"Wards One and Two, and Mrs. Anna
E. Watson in Wards Three and Four.
Ward Five, which takes In SUlpping
ton and contiguous territory, has no
enumerator, but Mr. Fairfield ex
pected to make an appointment to--day
and get the work In that ward
started.
The enumeration In municipali
ties must be completed by January
16, and in rural districts by Febru
ary 1. In the city of Klamath Falls
progress has b'een -made, but the cen
sus bureau urges that every one co
operate, so that, the work may be
completed by the time limit which
the law ffxos, and a full and accurate
estimate of population be obtained.
If there is laxity and neglect In re
gard to this important matter, It, Is
pointed out by thosetanxtous for the
communlty's'development,' the endsof
the census may, iind' Klamath Falls
with only a partial" list of popu
lation and gravely 'handicapped in its
advancement."- It "would certainly j
make a, difference in an' attempt ton
'attract business enterprises. arid set
tlers whether k the city's, population
were .set' at ,4,000 or at '6,000 or
7,000. It can readily be seen that
co-operation ..on the part of every
good citizen Is necessary. The enu
merators should have the informa
tion that they seek iwlthout question
or quibble, and every assistance
should be given them If they call for
aid in any detail. ,
The rural districts of" Klamath
county all have enumerators, and as
far as Mr. Fairfield knows 'the work
is going ahead without any hitch.
It is suggested that every citizen
make it a personal duty to see that
he and his family arelncluded In. the
census. If he feels 'that the census-
taker Is delayed and may overlook
film, let him look up tne census
taker. Following Is a list of the county
enumerators, their postofflce address
.and territory to be cevered:
Clive L. Sporup, "Dairy Algoma

STUFF OF STORE
T
Each year Mr. and Mrs. H. N.
Moe are host and hostess at a din
ner for all of ,the employes of the
Woman's Store. Last, night the
third of these dinners was served in
the banquet room of4he Rex Cafe
and was the most successful of the
series. As indicative of the strides
made by this establishment since it
opened its doors to the public of this
county, there were fifteen diners at
the .table, and this fact speaks plain
ly that Mr. Moe has made a succets
success built upon honest dealln
efficient service and co-operation.
Four years ago Mr. Moe ca io
here from Medford and opened a
store in ohe of Uie rooms of the
White building. Ho had one rule
that he never permitted to be trans
gressed," and that rule contained ust
three words "Value and fjervi't-"
The huslness 'grew until more room
became 'necessary and he took over
the leases of other tenants aud ex
panded. It will not be long 'until
he will have to do the same lhng
over again. In addition; to' giving
close attention to his , business,'. Ae
has also-found -U we jtpVentef (wlth
energy into every undertaking that
has for Irs purpose the develop nant
of the county and the. welfare of the
community. " '
Those attending the banquet last
night were: ' ' V" ' '
Mrs. Helen Guest, Mrs1. Clayton
Cornish, ,Mlss Eunice Vandenberg,
Mrs. Basil-. Gregory, Mrs. Ivy North,
Miss Mary Walker, Miss Minnie

need 'for studying It was strikingly
brought out In the figures obtained
during the war, when It was found
that one of every five men examined
by the draft boards throughout the
country, was rejected because of con
ditions arising from malnutrition in
childhood.

SPORTSMEN
TO REORGANIZE
Local Leaders Call Mass, Meeting To
morrow Night, la City Hall, t to
Construct Machine Opposing Ra
moral of Fish and Game Board.
If there was any one thing needed
to stir the sportsmen of the county
into action. It came with the aa.
nouncement of Governor Olcott that
he waa going to" wreck the present
splendid Fish and Game -Commission.
Ever since I the announcement aps
peared in' The Herald, it has been
the subject of heated discussion
among sportsmen, a'ud daily they
could be seen gathering ' in little
groups on Main street, discussing. '
what they term "an attempt on the
part of the chief executive of the
state to make the Fish and Game
Commission over into a political
asset."
This discussion has led to, the in
evitable result the proposed re
organization of the old Sportsmen's
Association, an organization that
was one of the finest In the state
and which, if what is heard is any
criterion, will far exceed its former
glory. With "that end in view, a
meeting is to be held In the council
chambers of the City Hall, Friday
evening, at whfch the preliminary
steps will be taken to get the old
Club on jits feet once more and make
It a power in the game and f sh af
fairs of the, state.' ' ,,

SALEM, Jan, .8. After a'hearlMC
between'" Governors Olcott atuLthe
ASSOCIATION
leaveJwlth'-MflHjAtshVrlesnd-JgaBwaajf
of 'the legislature, an executive wh'
slon was ,held in .the office' pt the "
governor. The discussion waa con
tinued ' Informally arid Governor Ol
cott was asked to state definitely his
attitude toward a proposal for a law '
creating a newj fish arid game com
mission, with two distinct depart
ments, one for the fishing and tha
other for the game interests, with
three members in each department,,
and" a' seventh member, a chairman,
to be chosen in a manner yet to be
determined. The understanding Is
that the legislature will elect the six
members of' the proposed commis
sion. To this proposal it Is under
stood that the governor did not dis
sent, according to statements made
afterward by some of those who
were present. According to these
reports, the governor expressed him
self as willing to leave the question
of the manner of organizing the pro
posed new commission or commis
sions to the legislature.
It was clear that the -great ma
jority of the two committees are not
favorable to the scheme of two se
parate commissions, believing that
great confusion and conflict -in the
administration of fish and game af
fairs will thereby result and that the
people will not approve the creation
of an 'additional commission where
one will serve. '
LEGISLATURE TO MAKE
BERTH FOR FINLEV
SALEM, Jan. 8. An effort will be
made at the 'special session of the
legislature here next week to provide
a berth for William L. Flnley, de
posed biologist, It was announced
by Senator R. S. Farrell of Portland,
member of the game committee ot
the senate.
According to Senator Farrell,
there will be Introduced at the spe
cial session a bill providing for the
creation of the office of state bio
logist, the cost to be paid out of the
general funds ot the state. Although
not admitted by Senator Farrell, the
latter'a friends declared that Mr.
Flnley's name probably would be in
corporated In the bill and, In tho
event of Its passage, the deposed
biologist again would get his name
on the state pay-roll.
