Tomorrow the faithful old Elks lodge, never overlooking a patriotic occasion, yrill hold proper services and displayhe colors of the nation. "T' Every building, both public and private, should have the 'flag out tomorrow and everyone should attend the Elks Flag Day services. .. .... "V It is not necessary to tell what the flag' symbolizes, but suf fice to say, without the American flag that has been defended by American soldiers there would not be much. worth while. The flag is greater than ever before, hence commemoration of it is of greater importance now than ever before; Making Headway The California Highway commission has not closed its ,tiind to the Weed highway. It must be admitted that Cali fornia is a big state and a secondary road in the extreme north ern part does not get the big attention that we would all like to have it receive. ...' " However, judging from the hearing that, a Klamath Falls delegation received Sunday from the California commission there is a fine chance to get some work done on the Weed highway. V The commission listened with great interest to the poten tial wealth here in Klamath in addition to the actual wealth now to be seen. One commissioner remarked. "I have been hear ing that Klamath Falls is the best town in Northern California." ,. With that sentiment prevailing it is not unreasonable to expect some action that will be satisfactory on this much de sired piece of road. j Development Is Here i ' With the Southern Pacific and the Great Northern agreed .on joint user of main lines and joint ownership of feeder lines, including the Strahorn railroad, Oregon is to be developed rapidly. - I - That is all that it can mean. Both railroads have finally adopted the exact recommendations of the Interstate Com merce commission and will not duplicate construction. U The first question arising in the Klamath Basin person's rtiind is, "How will this affect the eastern part of this county and how will it affect Lake county?" " '" ' In our judgment this insures development of those re gions with feeder lines which will 'jprbbaWjf Accomplish the re sults much quicker than any other way. Timber and agriculture need development. They need feeder railroads and under the final agreement such feeders will be built j. ,.v; v. f . ; The whole railroad matter is now, settled, excepting the Modoc Northern and everyone is waiting to see what the edict will be relative to that important road. Above Law Taking Interest In Our Highway Loss of a great deal of the business from the Klamath district has caused manufacturers, producers and dealers of California to take note of the importance of the Weed-Klamath highway, observes the Weed Press. Since the new railroad from the north has opened up the vast territory in southern Oregon much of the business is being transferred to Portland, and to keep intact the trade relations that have existed and California has enjoyed for many years is causing anxiety among business institutions of California that have heretofore had very little consideration for the northern part of the state. The discovery that the Weed-Klamath road is one of the important links that will keep this vast trade territory open has secured a great deal of support for its early . completion. It is the only direct highway from the Sacramento valley to the great Klamath country and to keep from losing much of this profitable business assistance no doubt will now be forth coming from all parts of the state. Siskiyou county and the Klamath country will gladly welcome the assistance proffered. "Movies"-U. S. And British i Miss Edmonton ill: tfV . Elinor Glyn is a British subject but a Los Angeles scenario writer, so when she came to the front in the defense of the American "movie" there may have been a little bit of self o'efense and complacency in her manifesto, but such a defender from across the water is better than no defender. Mrs. Glyn is not the First to throw the challenge to the Pritish film industry to overcome the American competition they say is so ruinous to their business, by producing better pictures than the Los Angeles variety. British politicians and "movie" men favoring compulsory exhibition of British films in England should find most em barrassing Mrs.. Glyn's pertinent interrogation whether the millions who patronize the shows or the few who produce "movies" should be considered by the English government when it takes up the question of the anaemic film industry in that country. While the literary efforts of the author ot what was once rnncidn r1 nurnl.nas:iori fiction is ineffective in her attempts to shock this sophisticated generation, her defense of the American motion picture will no doubt agitate ner countrymen, , or thow of them who aDufcar to think the American film in- dustry should play in its own backyard.

This means that greater numbers of people are reaching that time around the half century mark when human beings become subjects' to so-called degenerative diseases. What anti-toxin saves at six months, heart disease claims at fifty. Modern medicine and sanitation save the weak babies but cannot renair these artificially maintained "machines" when they break down fifty years later. Uiiitni marl infanrv far safer than it was a few years ago medical science is now making an heroic fight against the diseases which make living beyond the half-century mark highly hazardous. Those Germans know how to celebrate a Yankee airman's victory, too. ' One of Chicago's most recent murder cases revived the oft-asked question as to how far the law can go in an effort to wring from a priest information given- to him in confession and of importance in the investigation of a crime. S; The duaL obligation., of the priest is recognized. Infor mation given to him in a confessional is a sacred trust and yet under the common law it is not a privileged communication. Here is a nice moral point and one in which" the legal side would be bested if it ever came to a test t; Two definitions given in Webster's for ' "confessor" a priest who hears the confessions of others and one who avows belief in someone or something in the presence of danger and endures punishment for his faith would suggest that the question is not peculiar to modernity and that where these confessors have been forced to choose between betrayal of a trust and punishment they have invariably endured the latter rather than betray a confidence. But it is not priests alone who have two duties in their tase, one to the church and one to the state. Physicians recognize a relation to tneir patients which under certain circumstances seals their mouths. Lawyers recognize similar duty to their clients, as do bankers to their patrons. :;. ' The law does recognize privileged communications in some cases. Wives not only are not compelled to but are forbidden lo testify against their husbands except in the divorce and domestic relations courts and related cases. The law's recognition of the privileged communications between husband tnd wife is ethical to the extent that it holds sacred the mutual confidence society cultivates between husband and wife.
