Gas has come and .with it comes the end of the housewife's drudgery and the dawning of an era of freedom from kitchen and household slavery. We of this community can be justly proud that gas service is being supplied to ns by the Natural Gu Corporation of Oregon, as no other enterprise could so manifestly prove that this is a growing and stable community. Big enterprises do not elect backward communities when they plan develop ments, t While most of us who live in the smaller communities realize that they have their advantages, we understand, also, that until the advent of gas they have their incon veniences too. It is not a far 'step to the days of the small town with nnpaved streets; no sewer system, and when the farmer hitched his horse to the long post in front of the general store and went inside to talk over the news of the world that filtered in by mail from the far-flung corners of the globe. The automobile changed the dirt streeU to pavement the radio put an end to the corner store as a news center, and the kerosene lamp found its way to the junk pile when electricity arrived. Until now there has been only one link remaining to the past. It was the coal or wood stove, but it is passing now with the arrival of gas. How many of us can recall as youngsters that dread ed call of mother from the 'stoop of the front porch, "Johnny, come in and cut the wood." And Johnny kidded by the other youngsters dropped his bat and glove in the center of the street or on the corner lot and beat it for the backyard to do his duty at the woodpile. The Johnnies of today are no longer hearing mother's fervent appeal and neither is mother carrying in the wood when Johnny can't be found. Mother has turned modern, and she Is cooking with gas and heating the house with gas. Gas will change the whole structure of life in the imaller communities of the state, and Klamath Falls can well be proud that it is one of the first cities to be so elected. Folks will not only cook with gas, but they will heat the house with gas, and if baby suddenly be comes 111 at night they will have instant hot water from a gas storage heater. The advent of gas has not only brought about a thange In the community which receives it, but it brought about a change in the gas company. The 'day was when a gas plant was a detrimental fac tor to a community, because of it unsightly appear ance and its unwholesome odor. Not so with the gas which is coming to Klamath Falls. The gas company has erected a beautiful Spanish-type building upon a plot of ground to be later enclosed in a new wire fence, and flowers in the open spaces to beautify the view. It is indeed a change and one which will be welcomed by the people of Klamath Falls in more ways than one. The new era is here.

SLOW KVOLITIOX Just a It took automobile a long time to get orer being mere ly "horseless carriages." so ha It taken the old-fashioned bathroom to evolve Into the 1931 de luxe state. Stereotyped all-white bath gave way to the garish, one-color modern bath which tn turn has developed into these spacious, ar tistically colored creations. These trends are summed up In a bathroom design contest launch ed by the Standard Sanitary com pany for new floor plans, new col or schemes, new ideas In beauty and utllltarianiam combined. The thousands of competing architects and interior decorator from all over the world were united In the following characteristic of the model np to date bathroom: X. More window are needed In bathrooms, more windows to aire light and sunshine, for this room makes the greatest use of water of any room In the house and therefore needs more light and snnshine. The new glass which sun penetrates is used in many of them to give you a sun bath while yon are undressed. S. The bath tub. lavatory and closet will no longer depend upon wall placing aa of old.

Instead of hauling wheat IS miles to a rail line, several grain growers In Washinaton state are sending It from their farm to the railroid over a pipe line.
