f WHY CHANGE?
FOH tho pant two voars tho city
of Klamath Falls has enjoyed a
clean, ef Mi lent and proRresslve nd
mlnlitratlon of Ito chic and business
affairs. 'Th badly muddled finances
of the city hae been stralKhtened
out, tbe MIIU -addition sewer unit baa
born oempleted, the, fire, liatnrd and
Insurance rate reduced by the In
stallation of a more adequate vater
system, drainage and street problems
met and conquered, mid mora tiling
of tenirel far-renchlnR Importance
nrcnmpllabed than the nverano 1 1 1
sen realties.
The average cltlrcn would realise
corely tbe lack of efficiency, and
would appreciate the financial situa
tion wire'condltlon's reversed and the
city plusHjla'dPr Into difficulties
Instead of feeing fairly on the road to
em'erilnr from them. We-nre all too
quick to CTltlclte and blame; too slow
to-gWe deserved praise.
Tbe adnjlnlstratlbn has boon hand
(capped by flnanclil obstacles and by
minority dlaeenslon from within, but
despite tkta It has made good.
There Is only one standard by
which men In public office should be
measured ibat Is the ability ft lib
which they discharge tbe duties of
their offlcV lly this standard we
Judge Mayor Wiley. He has made
KOb'd.
Dut a certain minority durlnn the
past two years have opposed tbe ad
ministration. Hecause they could not
control Mayor Wiley, they bare
sought to discredit tiltu.
Now, with a city election ap
proaching; thla underground attack of
abuse and .Tllllflcatloa.'ls again In
Ideace.
We deplore these raud-sllnglng tac
tics. Tkay jure no place lrt,cyjj
ma'nity otitic. ,In spite orllbb eon
tlnnal talk of corruption In office,
there has never been a single In
' stance officially authenticated, not
even the raguest Insinuation that
haa, so .-far aa we know, the slight
est foundation 1n fact.
Such tactics prove nothing against
their target In thu -minds of broad
minded clUens. They 'merely em
phasize the weakness of the position
of the disgruntled minority.
Aa far as the Herald knows, the
'candidates who are opposing Maor
Wjley have no band In the mud
slinging campaign. They are hon
orable gentlemen; certainly entitled
to aspire for tbe office and doubt
less possessing merit.
"But why change a satisfactory ser
vant, at thla time when be haa just
become wfeg acquainted with the
complicated problems of city gov
ernment? Now that bis requisite
technical 'knowledge for the situation
haa been 'acquired, and we are blessed
with an executive with dignity, tact
and efficiency, why spend time and

members of the International Plxed

adoption of it in-montb ear vvmi

daM mid an Interunlleual holiday
added each )e.ir to make up the Itl'.T.

There Is really no reason vvh) the
cab ndnr Hhould bo so broken up,
league members say In tbe dav of
tbe uncliitt l.Vyptl.tni". who orlgluat-
d the ralendar, working with the
thadnw-H of pyramids nud obelisks,
the ralendar was arranged with thir
teen months of equal length, with a
five da)s fesllv.il lit the end of the
ear to square things up with tbe
sun. The lensiiu for the i)rnuilds
and otnllsks was their use In nsiron
urn) and calendar making, It Is said
In 40 II Julius Cieiur. dissat
isfied v.ith the moon-rbuHlug uil.-n-dar
or his day .nloptid the Kg) pilau
s)stui with mollifications The
Itoin.ins were superstitious about odd
numbers so Julius starlid to do with
the talendar as he had done with
the world and when he was through
the filial length mouths were all
broken up. tin- five-day festival was
elliulnuted, and the months were ar
ranged nlternalel) with 30 and dl
days.
So pleasetl was the lloman senate
with Cii'ar's work. It Immediately
named tho tevt nth month in his cal
endar In his honor, and the stem Is
known as the Julian calendar
That worked for a while until oue
of Caesar's successors, Augustus by
name, changed bis forebear's work.
In 11 C 28, and when his heavy
hand was through, tbe Ljlcndar re
sulted In Its present state; tho odd
mid even numbered months were
changed around and arbitrarily fix
ed, February was given a little more
liberty than tho other months, and
the half-years Vere se't on unequal
bases tho first half getting only
1S1 days and thu sr-.'ond IS I. The
Unman senate retaliated by chang
ing tho name of thu eighth month to
honor Augustus, as tdiat was his
birth month as July was Julius's.
"Constnntln the Oreat". says n
leaguo publication, "conferred thu
ever-welcome Sabbath rest i ach 7lh
day on Kuropeans; but the unequal
lengths of SM und 31 day months Im
posed by Julius and Augimtus have
zlnro foned tho Constunllun weeks
