The Value Of Courtesy
JE observe so little of courtesy now days that we are
are all but inclined to the opinion that the word is
Uisappearing- from the English language. It seems that
In this age of money chasing and the never-ending effort
U get more out of life every day of the year than we
are putting into it that courtesy is becoming a lost art
yhere is less of it practiced in the home, in the office
and on the street Men, generally, exhibit a lesser de
tree of courtesy to those of the fair sex than was the
eustom a few years ago, and many young people are
trowing up with but limited realization of its value.
We see so little of courtesy and gallantry these days
than any display of it immediately evokes interest and
comment So it is that the decision of the Klamath Falls
police and traffic departments to issue courtesy slips to
tourists and strangers who come into our miast ana
through a lack of familiarity with traffic regulations
violate some minor restriction, calls for commendation,
A majority of strangers entering the portals of our
jcity are desirious of obeying traffic regulations. But
often some of them become confused and unthoughteaiy
commit some minor infraction of our laws, for which
they are excusable. It is far better to treat them cour
teously than to adopt the hard-boiled policy of rushing
them into court and plastering them with a fine.
courtesy slip respectfully calling their attention to their
infractions of traffic laws is far more effective in pre
venting recurring violations and goes a great deal far
ther in making new friends for our city than following
the policy of fining them upon their first offense.
Courtesy is a very important element of hospitality.
and the city that establishes and maintains a reputation
for hospitality is one which people are always desirous
of visiting. Hospitality costs nothing, and its practice
results in far-reaching benefits. 1
It goes without saying that local citizens will approve
' the policy adopted by the police department, and we
know that it is one which will win for Klamath Falls
many warm friends from strangers. It is a policy which
will spread far and wide the reputation of Klamath
Falls as a city of courteous and hospitable citizens and
'officials. If followed consistently, it will become one
of the most .valuable assets of the city.
Nevada A Wide Open State
"pHE legislature of Nevada, intent upon cashing in on
divorces and games of chance, took a most ex
treme step during the late session threw down the
last bars to easy divorce and opened wide the state to
gambling in all its forms. The latest word from there
is that the governor has given his word that he will ap
prove both bills.
As a result of this unusual action Nevada is getting
k lot of publicity all over the nation. Gambling and
Other sporting resorts are springing up in Reno and
.other towns of the state and owners are planning on
(doing a flourishing business.
But is the publicity Nevada is obtaining the kind
)spon which good citizenship and permanent growth are
erected? We doubt it. Nevada can, under present con
ditions, become notoriously known but it can never be
come well and favorably known.
There comes back to us the realization that one ex.
' treme always follows another. There is always less re
action from pursuing a happy medium or a reasonable
course than comes from extreme action. It will, there
fore, not bo at all surprising that if within the next two
years, or a little longer, Nevada will be closed as tight
as the door to a North Dakota cellar in winter time.
You can subject people to blue laws and restrictions
. which are severe beyond reason for only a limited time
until they rebel and go far beyond bounds which would
never have been approached under a sane rule. And
just as surely as you throw the gates wide open to' all
forms of gambling and vice, making a bid for the lowest
stratas of the underworld there will come a reaction and
a rebellion which will bring about an extreme reverse
condition.
Nevada, under it former laws had become the Mecca
,- for wealthy seekers after divorce. Its income from that
source had grown to enormous proportions. As we un
' derstand it, laws prohibiting gambling were far from
being vigorously enforced. But citizens of that state
were not satisfied. They demanded that everything be
thrown wide open. The result will be a marked re
action to such an extent that they will rue the day when
r they threw reason to the winds and adopted an extreme
policy.
Thomas A. Edison is above the average man, but he
Is like the average in at least one particular. He ap
pears to better advantage when asking questions than

Hats at the Show
Detroit Free Tress: A some

writer used aa a medium for nnv
duclug these words and said:
Th women are commencing to
keep their bats on In tha moeia
houses and theatres, and tome are
quite nasty, when asked to take
them oCf."
That' diaconrerttnr and disao-
pointing, but DerhaDs not alto

nearly a generation aince women
commenced removing their hats
in theatre to that people behind
mem could aee the stage; and
there 1 no direct remembrance
among the mass of show patrons
of the day when a female In the
row ahead waa a notice that enjoy
ment of the coming performance
must be obtained exclusively
through the ears. The blesalug
brought about by the reformation
of custom which has demanded
that lids be laid In laps when a
curtain rises, baa become common
place and. unappreciated, like the
bleating of vaccination against
smallpox. Beaides that, the stand
ards of courtesy la public places
have been deteriorating deplora-
oiy aiong with the general nedect
of social refinement.
However, w have hone that the

Hiring Things
The Wisconsin Episcopalian
Bishop Wilson call our atten
tion to the practice of hiring al
most everything done. He aara:
There waa a time when people
nsea to snovel their own walks,
stoke their own fires, rake their
own leave. Now auch chore are
hired out. It haa been estimated
that In New York city 2,000,000
people eat at least one meal a
day in torn public restaurant or
dining room; they hire somebody
to feed them. We used to hold
parties In our own homes: now
w go to th movies, buy theater
tickets, purchase tickata to attv
etic contests, ana so Hire nro-
tessionais to entertain us.
'Much of this la excellent but
it doe raise th question as to
how fr we ran bira our rood
deeds to be don for us. There
are aom things which sr not
subject to purchase. You can't
hir human kindness, friendship
and' good will, or Christian wor
