Malin Enlistees Swell Ranks Of Oregon State Guard Here Br SOT. O. J. HORNE The Interest being shown In Klamath county for the Oregon State Guards was brought out this week when Capt. Van Fleet made a trip to Malin at the re quest of the Malin Rifle club. Some of the club's members had expressed the desire to learn more about the state guards. This desire originated from a patriotic as well as an unselfish idea that they could be doing something for their country and community as well as them selves. Obviously their train ing would stand them in good stead. After Capt. Van Fleet had ex plained our alms and purposes, 19 club members enlisted. To say the least, the new enlistees from Malin will be welcomed. It is now planned that a platoon or even a company may be formed In Malin. For the time being, however, they will report to the Klamath armory. In this way they can familiarize themselves with the new mili tary drill under the competent officers who supervise the drill ing of Company C each Wednes day night from 7:30 to 10 o'clock. With the splendid Initial start the Malin squad has made, it is expected they will soon have an enrollment of 40 or SO men. There are other county com munities who will be watching Malin's progress, we know, for everyone is interested in local military protection. Perhaps Mann s sister community, Mer rill, could also form a platoon and together form to make a company in the southend of the county. What say, Merrill? Klamath Looks Ahead to Victory Garden Planting Klamath county still has plen ty of winter ahead, but one of the season's pleasures is look ing ahead to gardening and the perusal of seed catalogues.

Last year's victory garden growing stem med from a patriotic urge; this year it will more than likely be a necessity, It was observed by potential gardeners. .

THAHK i The people who live in the cities, towns and villages along Southern Pacific's lines in the West have just provided a fine example of war-time cooperation. S7e think this cooperation deserves recognition and we want to say "thank you" . . since Southern Pacific was primarily concerned. And we're quite sure the marry thousands of men in uniform who benefitted too, would also like to join us in this expression of appreciation. Early in December we were faced with the problem of providing trans portation during the holidays for a very large number of men in the -armed services who were to be given holiday furloughs. Because of the pressure of war traffic on our equipment . . . cars and locomotives ... we knew that we could not provide transportation for all these service men and the normal number of civilian holiday travelers too. i ' , So we arranged a somewhat drastic and extensive program requiring coach reservations for virtually all trains, and set aside a major portion of both Pullman and coach space for the service men. Then we ran ad vertising telling people what our problem was, and why we could not take care of everyone who would like to travel during the holidays. We asked people not to "Try the Train". As a result many people gave up holiday trips they very much wanted to make. The amount of civilian travel, compared with December, 1941, was considerably reduced and we took care of the service men in good shape. There was comparatively little congestion, and all essential travel was accommodated. , , So we know that people generally have cooperated . . . and we give you all a hearty "thank you." We hope you will continue to confine your trips, in 1943, to essential travel. May we also express our appreciation at this time for your considerate and understanding attitude towards Southern Pacific and its service during the last twelve months? Because of the many trains on our tracks a . . carrying troops, equipment, war freight, vital materials and food ... and the decreased amount of equipment for passenger use, our pass enger service has been below peace-time standards. Trams have been crowded, and trains have been late. Because of the pressure for equip ment, we have had to use many old cars, and we haven't been able to dean and refurbish equipment as well as we would like. We cannot obtain additional dining cars, and the conditions surrounding dining car operation these days are extremely difficult. ' We have tried to give you the facts about our problems and difficulties, at the same time trying to do the very best transportation job we could tinder the circumstances. You in turn have responded in a way that has been most encouraging to us. You have shown a friendliness under war time travel conditions that is heart-warming to us railroaders. ' A. T. MERC1ER, President The Friendly Southern Pacific
