I had no idea, until I sprained my left one the other day . . . Why, almost everything you do with your right hand has to be assisted or held by the left . . . And the thumb seems about the most Important helper . . . Trying to fasten my back garters was the worst of all . . . Anyway, it's hard to type too, because my thumb keeps getting in the way ...

In a bean pot . . , But it s been years and years, positively, since I've seen a bean pot . . . Until Wednesday. This is the story . . . When I stopped at Garcelon's to pick up Pat Livingston for our Wednesday afternoon drink, June Peterson told me she was in the basement ... So down I went. And there was Pat, looking very hot, unpacking a huge crate . . . (She brightened up when she saw me, because she knew it would take two large cokes to make her feel better, and this week was my turn to treat.) But what appealed to me was the bean pot she held in her hand ... A regular old-fash- 'tOtv. Mitt ioned earthenware bean pot, In two shades of brown. It seems that she had several big crates to unpack before the afternoon was over . . . Be cause Garcelon's had just re ceived a shipment of earthen ware for cooking, baking and storage . . . All kinds of things. There were big cookie jars . jiimiuB uuwis . ivcii it erator sets . . . Cocoa jugs . . . The cutest individual cas seroles with handles that you ever saw . . . And many other things ... All made of this heavy, durable oven ware that yet is very attractive looking in its two shades of brown. I asked her what they cost, and she told me they're all low priced ... She could remember the prices on only two things, right off . . . The little casse roles are 30c . . . And the bean pots are 60c. So then we went out, and I bought her the two large cokes, Louie Polio's new red side walk at Seventh and Main is drawing quite a few wisecracks . . .

The girls modeled cotton and rayon dresses and suits mado in the sewing classes of the high school during the past year. The contest this year was div ided into three classes according to experience.

Eighth is the fact that con gressmen's mail is again run ning heavy against war. Three Fields For Battle All these points arc listed here not to advocate them, but merely to try to summarize the argu ment from the peace side. If the peace advocates contention that the country is drifting away from war is true, then the anti war crowd has actually talked the country away from war sen timent while the administration has merely bemoaned the pub lic's lack of appreciation of the crisis. To overcome that lead, the ad ministration will have to send its best campaign orators into the field to sell the country on its policy. These orators will have to do a better job than me weeiieiiu, turn stiiu uuib uc u i n l heard about Cal-Ore clear down UeanilO, POllI HoneVfTIOOn DV the Sea there ...

Then they can all give the same one and no one would be much the wiser, be cause nobody could possibly at tend more than one graduation ceremony in an evening. Boy's Pet Cocker Spaniel Missing Anyone seen "Pepper Girl"? A stocky little black cocker spaniel dog with a white breast is being sought by her master, Harvey Rand, 11, 1135 Lincoln street, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ar thur Tappan. The little dog will answer to the name of "Pep per Girl," and anyone learning of her whereabouts please con tact Harvey as he is most un happy over losing his pet. The dog recently came to Har vey from Sacramento and it is thought she jumped from her master's car. The town being ftronge to her, it has apparently been impossible for the spaniel f find her way home.

He sent to congress a report py secretary Hull, along with a draft of legislation, proposing mat we united States pay two thirds of the cost of construction of the road through the Central American countries. Among otner things, Hull said the high way would be valuable for de fense. W'''V J proposed speaking tour for the former William Allen White committee will have to be effec tive. If the cause of non-participation in the war was not lost with the passage of the lease lend bill, then there are three last ditches on which the issue can be fought in congress again: First is Senator Tobey's reso lution to ban convoys. Second is tho concurrent reso lution backed by Senators Nye, Wheeler, Capper, La Follcttc, Clark of Idaho, and Shipstcad, calling for a national referen dum on the question: "Shall the congress under existing condi tions approve the use of land, naval, and air forces outside the western hemisphere or the terri torial possessions of the United States and appropriate funds necessary for such military and naval operations?" Third is the Capper resolu tion, proposing a constitutional amendment which shall provide for declaration of war by na tional referendum only. Congress can provide a much better battle on any of those three questions within the next few months than it could have a month ago. I'll shorten my prayer . , . but I know I'll be doing wrong. Those fellows need a long pray er. Rev. W. G. Bcaslcy, chap lain, Oklahoma senate. BIEBElt, Calif. Ten thousand dollars worth of Pit river chan nel clearing and straightening in Big valley as a protection against floods is a Lassen and Modoc county objective this year, ac cording to Peter Gerig of Bicbcr, a member of tho Lusscn county oonra oi supervisors. The Lassen board at a special meeting hero adopted n resolu tion asking that $3000 be allocat ed from state flood relief funds. to no matched with 52S00 each from Lassen and Modoc counties and used for opening the river. Two members of tho Modoc county board, O. P. Smelcer of Adin and Dr. E. F.

Lest there be any misunder standing, the narls' fierce bomb ing of the already terribly torn port of Plymouth again Inst night Is a grim reminder that tho crucial operation nf tho war remains the battlo of Britain, with which is linked the de vastating Gorman' attack on trans-Atlantic shipping. Britain's gravest peril lies there. However, the situation in the Near East is a hot-spot, too. Visualization of what Hitler has In mind Is fascinating In its po tentialities. Wo generally refer to this project as an effort to smash British domination of the custom Mediterranean, That generali zation isn't very illuminating, though, unless you know what it cloaks. Hitler's plan as I see It Is both military and economic. The operation which he is studying would be in effect an effort to drive a hugo bulgo Into the Brit ish blockade. Apart from its trateglc value militarily, it would open up a new field of supplies for tho Germans, and that is tremendously important. It Is Important because Britain is depending on strangulation of Germany to defeat the enemy In tho long run. If the blockade Is broken, or driven back, it means more to Hitler in winning the war than the knocking out of small European stales by his thus far Invincible land maehino. He needs supplies which Eur ope (barring Russia) no longer can provide him. That of course, lends substance to the talk of a possible nazl attack on Russia for the purpose of seizing the fruitful Ukraine. Moro than once I have em phasized there that one of Hit ler's greatest needs Is oil. This is the life-blood which feeds the sinews of Industry and war. Without it, tho vast German military machine must ccaso to move. In this connection I have before me a statement by Max W. Ball, authority on oil. Last year Mr. Ball predicted In his book "The Fascinating Oil Business" that Germany might lose the wur In the end because of a shortage of till. Ills publish ois, the llohbs-Morrlll company, now have Issued a supplement ary commont In which the oil expert expresses tho view that the present Intensity of the Eur opean wur Is due In a consider able measure to Germany's des perate need for now sources of oil. Mr, Bull says Hint the axis powers aro rapidly exhausting uvnlliililu reserves. J la figures Hint Geiiuuny bus surplus of 21,000,000 barrels on hand but that she is running short be tween 4,000,000 and 7,000,000 barrels a month in military re quirements. "This does not mean," ho says( "Unit Hitler must win the war within tho next few mouths or surrender. Hut it is clear thut unless ho succeeds In winning access to large additional suit piles of oil, his blitzkrieg dnyu,. will be over." ' W Now ono of tho great supplies of oil is In Irnq onij Iran. Orltaliy by tho way, depends heavily on these rich fluids. If llerr Hitler can, so to spenk, drive a snlleni deep enough Into the Near East to Include these wells, he will have achieved one of his great est triumphs of tho war.
