It is seldom that one can get an approximation of an airplane view such as may be qbtained from the 107-foot steel tower on Agency butte. 1 An interesting and convenient fact about this lookout Is that it can be reached without driving up a long, rough, rocky road or climbing a steep trail. It is about five min utes from The Dalles-California highway at Klamath Agency, on a good dirt road. The view is good from the ground at the foot of the tower, but it is infinitely better from the glass and steel cage on top. This can be reached by a safe winding stairs. ! The present lookout is an Oregon State graduate, Mr. Yoder, who .is going back to Halyard this fall on a schol arship. He welcomes visitors and is courteous and help ful in pointing out interesting spots on the landscape and explaining the problem of locating fires. Most lookouts lead a lonely life, but Mr. Yoder's life is not too lonely, He has had as many as 200 visitors in a single Sunday. ' Outstanding feature of the panorama spread out be. fore you from the top of the tower is Crooked creek. It is directly under you, unbelievably twisty and admirably deserving of its name, l ou are impressed by the immen sity of the marsh, and the vast herds of cattle feeding on the meadows there and in the beautiful Wood River valley. A column of dust in the thick timber to the north tells where the Algoma loggers are harvesting the Yaw- key stand. A browned glade to the east is identified as Spring Creek ranch. Pelican butte, Applegate butte. Calimus butte, Modoc Point, and Saddle mountain are well known landmarks. t Agency Butte lookout is an interesting spot to visit and a' place to take strangers who want to know more about this country. It's an easy climb and a worthwhile ex perience. Aircraft Industry Gets Services of 3 Klamath Youths SAN FRANCISCO.

(To the Ed itor) -A sum of over $90, In eluding donations kindly sent in, was raised by the Langcll Valley Women's club at a dance given at tho community hall on Saturday last. This money will be sent to the Ramsey Courier, Ramsey, isie oi Alan, which paper is ap pealing to its readers for help lor cnuaren air-raid victims, who are being evacuated from the great shipping port of Liver pool, England, which has been so heavily bombed, to the com parative safety of the Isle of Man. The women's club wishes to thank all who so kindly helped them in their effort.

CONCEDES DANGER Price Rustrulncr, Leon Ilea derson, practically admitted be fore the senuto committee thut certain amount of inflation tprices and wages) cannot bo avoided even if his price control bill is adopted. He said such things as inflation is inevitable unless he receives strong con trols but then such controls might not be sufficient. Without precisely admitting It, he is conceding what every au thority in the government pri vately admits now tho eco nomic elevator has Just started. Predictions of 10 to IS per cent further gcnoral Increase in prices within the next four months are being freely mndo. This would be stopped arbl trarlly, if tho udmmlslrution really wanted to stop it, but the political repercussions and eco nomic violence might be more than authorities care to endure, tho tendency therefore will bo to apply mild brakes, to slow but not to stop the trend. TAKE CARE OF IT I asked consumer experts in the government for advice to Individuals on how they should alter their living habits to adjust themselves to the price-wage shortages situation, with the fol lowing preliminary results: It is true women and men will be unable to buy tho stockings, tics, etc., to which they have been accustomed, as soon as existing stocks are gono, probably in a few months. Not only will silk hose be extinct but supplies of rayon, nylon and others will be curtailed somewhat, because the, army is also using these mater ials in increasing quantities. The government's advice Is to tako exceptionally good care of those you have. Wear only as neces sary. Women who wear slacks around the house, for Instance, to the neighbors, found her j builder operator and equipment daughter in serious condition.
