THE CITY PARK
The time has come when a definite decision must
be reached by the Park Board as to what action will be
taken upon the application of the Oregon Trunk railroad
to purchase the city park property. The Herald would
suggest that the proper thing for the Park Board to do
is to refuse to sell any part of the property to the North
ern Line. Instead, it should give the property to the
Oregon Trunk absolutely free.
We know that some will think this is throwing away
about $10,000 of the people's money, especially so since
handsome prices nave been pam -.or adjoining proyeny.
But is not the good will of the Oregon Trunk worth more
than $10,000 to Klamath Falls? We paid 300,000
to Strahorn for less. Such a donation will be like cast
ing bread upon the waters. It will return an hundred
fold. There are very few taxpayers in the city who will
object to the donation and fewer still who believe that
this property ever could be used as a park.
The railroad development projected in the vicinity of
this site is so extensive as to make it impractical for park
.purposes. The amount of money the city has invested
in ''t is so small and its importance to the Oregon Trunk
is so great that its donation to the railroad will have
such beneficial effect as to make it one of the wisest
actions ever taken by any municipality.
Let us give the Oregon Trunk the park site to be used
in the furtherance of its development plans.
MOTORISTS! BE SURE OF YOUR COLORS
Accidents will happen to the best of motorists, but
the odds against them will be less when traffic signals
are standardized throughout the country. In that be
lief several highway and engineering organizations have
agreed on a code to include the use of luminous and non
luminous signs and signals.
Three colors have been selected for primary traffic ""' laundries of Klamath Palls

proceed. Careful experience showed that at a distance
the red lights were most easily distinguished from other
colors, and require the lowest light intensity for unmis
takable recognition. A red light of 75 candle power
could be distinguished at GOO feet, on the average, but
a green light had to be of 250 candle power, a yellow
iight required 750, and a blue light 1,000 candle power.

SRPINC THE WRONG SIDE FIRST
People a., divided into fwo eia.es bv ,heir attitude SdS STSISggWSt
inward new thmes.
Some jump at them. Others shy at them. Some anti
cipate their advantages. Others perceive their dangers.
When Faradav in 1832 showed before the British As
sociation at Oxford that a spark could be produced by
magnetic induction, a dean of the university who watch
ed the experiment shook his head and said : "I am sorry
for it." He then turned and walked away repeating: "i
am sorry for it" As he passed out of the door he turn
ed again and said: "Indeed, I am sorry for it. It is
putting new arms into the hands of the incendiary."
Nobody can deny that his apprehensions have been
justified. But the learned gentleman overlooked the
electric light of the future.
At the time of Charles II a law was enacted to prohibit
coaches on the streets of London because of 'the de
struction caused by their Vheels to the paving stones."
There was undoubtedly reason for such legislation.
Coaches did wear out the pavement. So do trucks now
adays. But it would be better to strengthen the- paving
than to abolish the trucks.
Neophobia is a dangerous disease.
common among men, doctors say, although it is a rarity
among women. That conclusion may explain why wo
men never miss a bright bit of color "in a show window,
be it hat, gown or lingerif. But it doesn't explain the
wear and tear caused by folks who see red all the time.
The hue and cry over the traffic problem has had ex
pression in all sorts of slogans. Why not "Be, sure your
colors are right, then go ahead?"
