Supporting the Carnival Military Strength Rtflects Harmony? Most of us have been surprised at the manner in which the Chinese have stubbornly fought off the Japanese at Shanghai, engaging even in successful counter attacks. It is true enough that there has been little reason up to this time to hold the capabilities of the Chinese soldier in very high regard. Japan mopped up Manchuria with seeming ease, and most of the news stories about the action up there were confined to descriptions of speedy retreats of the Chinese. In fact, at a number of important points, such as Chinchow, the Chinese departed be fore their opponents arrived on the cene, and the Japanese apparently ad vanced slowly in order that the evacu ation might be complete. That didn't happen to be the order of things when the Japanese landed at Shanghai, and a bloody and protracted battle has been under way there. It has been reported that some of the best troops of the Chinese army are at the Shanghai front, and it is not hard to believe. Furthermore, it may be that the stub born Chinese resistance is partly due to closer political harmony in China, resulting from the crisis into which the Japanese program has plunged the country. The warring forces of China, it is indicated in reports, have been unified, with the various political fac tions getting together in support of the military resistance. Japan's enterprise may eventually drive China into the unity without which it can never be a nation in the true sense of the word. Japan has in dicated excuse for its actions in that very lack of unity, alleging that be cause of it China has not been able to discharge the responsibilities of a na tion. What next for Japan, if China is driven into unity? It is well to add that true Chinese unity would be a tremendously good thing. So long as chaos rules in that land, immense in population, territor ial size and resources, it is going to be a disturbing factor for the rest of the world. A Little Blizzard Virits Our Land The wind blew over the dry snow in the Klamath country Saturday moan ing. The powdery substance of winter was whipped into fantastic swirls, low above the pavements, and in the fields it was lifted into steam-like clouds. Exposed places were blown bare as the brisk breeze carried on its little game. Lanes which had been cleared by man were blown full again. Fields of level snow were transformed into gentle billows. There was no practical significance to these things. There was no economic importance, such as has been attached to the severity of the winter in general. This transient little storm did not iso late any travelers, lead to any trag edies, or otherwise win for itself a place on the front page of the metropolitan 1 newspapers. x But it did mean something for those who took time to think upon the won der of it all, and to look upon its beau ty. In our hurried manner of life, we give too little heed to such things. We do not often enough lift our eyes to the majesty of Mt. Shasta, over there to the southwest, nor contemplate the wonders of the hills or the sunset. How much we could do to relieve the drabness of life, if we but recognized and took time to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us. Active Interest 1$ In Order The community has committed Itself to whole-hearted support of the Crater Lake snow carnival at Fort Klamath next week-end. and that is well. The coming week should be one of general preparation for and anticipation of a great event. Chamber of commerce directors were told this week of the necessity for giv ing the Fort Klamath event particularly strong support, in view of the laudable determination of the Crater Lake club to keep its program on an amateur basis. To do this, the Crater Lake club has not joined an association of win ter sports organizations, but has main tained its independence, in the hope that amateur interest in snow sports in the Klamath country would not be crowded out by outside professionalism. For this reason, home support is es sential to the success of the Crater Lake ski tournament. City officials, the chamber of commerce, and service clubs have promised that support. Whether the event is a real success, depends on whether that shall be ac tive interest, or the mere formality of courteous vote. Big Stories of 1931 Listed As you cast your mind back over 1931, what are the events that stand out? Well, you probably are saying, the economic situation meant more to me than anything else. A lot of things happened, but that seems to stand out. If you do think that, you agree with leading executives of the world's two greatest news gathering services, the Associated Press and the United Press. Mr. J. M. Kendrick, executive news editor of the A. P., and Mr. Carl D. Groat, news director of the U. P., put the economic situation as first in their lists of the ten biggest news stories of 1931. Mr. Joseph Conolly, president of the International News Service, did not mention it in his, but he did men tion the Hoover debt moratorium, and England going off the gold standard, as related stories. If you sometimes think of 1931 as a dreary and uneventful year, let your mind run over this list, which includes all of the stories chosen by the three news service executives, but does not include duplications. WoTld depression and related occurrence, Manchuria, and related occurrence. Hahatma Gandhi. Knute Rockne's death. Wlekeraham report on prohibition. Fost-Catty around the world bop. Edlson'a death. Cnlbcrtaon-Lem bridge match. Imprisonment of A. B. Fall. Conviction of Al Capone. Overthrow of the Spanish monarch. Pop Plus' first radio broadcast The Colorado -tllixard Is which children froi to death. Pepper Martin and the world series. Disagreement between Vatican and Italy. Death of Dwlgbt Morrow. Professor Plcarde's stratosphere ascent of SI, 000 feet. What will be the biggest stories of 1932? Already the Sino-Japanese war fare or whatever may come of it, is a cinch for a place in that list. Let's take a hopeful chance and nom inate economic recovery as another. In view of the rivalry between the fire and police departments for the af fections of a black cat, we take it that not all dark felines are expected to bring misfortune.
