It's a good business $2.20 for an hour and a half, and the carryalls have been going steadily, filled with Elks and service men and women, ever since we came to town. s s s s Historic Boston BOSTON, of course. Is rich in historic spots. The old North church, Paul Kevere's home, various old buildings such as Faneull hall, site of the Boston massacre, and Bunker hill, are few of the highlights. Personally, we've spent lot of time in the burying grounds which were established in the early 17th century. One of them, that of old King's chapel, is right under the window of our room In the Parker Bouse. One can spend a whole day under the Advertising Roundup Br D ELBERT ADDISON THERE'S Just one reason for advertising these days, and that applies to the advertising of Individual Items for direct sale as well as other kinds. The reason is that of building for postwar times. The old slap-dash, hard and fast selling ads are virtually gone. Each day advertising becomes more a matter of pro viding Information to influ ence public opinion on mat ters ranging from the orderly buying and use of merchan dise to the selling of war bonds. Because the reason for ad vertising does lie in the more or less distant future, it takes a good deal of both nerve and foresight to keep at It The more Immediate the returns, the easier it is to see the value of advertising. And the only reason advertising Is suffering at all from the war, is because of this element of delayed-action. (Curtailment of newsprint has not yet become a factor, here at least.) ... Plug Away or Mark Time AN advertiser can take one of two outlooks. He can keep plugging away advising cus tomers of how he best can serve them, and vol untarily doing his part in the public projects (Red Cross, War Bonds, conservation and the like.) Or he can mark time until "it's over." The difference in operation won't show up drastically until it IS over. Then, one of these days, we'll wake up to the fact that the day we've been waiting for is here. Advertiser number one will have the touch of public confidence and good will, and will start making hay. . Number two win start trying to do the things he's been waiting to do all this time and will find the other fellow is already there head of him. A successful business man remarked to me, years ago, that every business needed one indi vidual who kept his nose to the grindstone and kept the wheels turning, and another Individual who got out into public affairs and did his bit to build the community. Advertising (which more and more these days is your contact with the public) needs this same FRAIVK IDA WHITE (Continued From Page One) Mr. Whjte was secretary and treasurer of the Klamath Realty board. He had been affiliated with E. M. Chilcote and Fred E. Fleet in the real estate busi ness, since 1937. Mr. White was a member of Klamath lodge No. 77, AF&AM, Klamath chapter No. 35, Royal Arch Masons, past commander and member of Calvary Com mandery No. 16, Knights Temp lar, and past worthy patron and member of the Order of the Eastern Star. High Tribute High tribute to Mr. White's memory was paid by Circuit Judge David R. Vandenberg who appointed him bailiff on January 5, 1941, when the judge took office. "Frank Ira White was a per sonal friend of mine, a man of integrity and the highest stan dards. The community will feel a real loss as -the years go on. As for myself, I have suffered a deep loss in his passing," the judge stated.

There were no children. In 1930, Mr. White married Mrs. Lillian Carries of Portland, who sur vives him. There are also sev eral brothers. Mr. White with his wife and old friends of the family, Mr. and Mrs. Sydney Evans, went to Portland some six weeks ago. He failed to improve and death occurred at the Evans home. Funeral services will be held early next week from Finley's mortuary in Portland with in terment in the family plot of Rose City cemetery. The time of the rites will be announced later. Expected Revision ' Stymies Fuel Oil Applications Because of an expected com plete revision Jn regulations af fecting fuel oil for heating, purposes,- the local war price and rationing board Is not doing any work at present on summer fill up on fuel oil. It was felt that it was wiser not to issue any more coupons because the work would la,ter have to be duplicated under the new regulations. If oil is need ed for farm or plant use, appli cation may be made to the board and oil will be issued for these use.

MALCOLM EPLEY trees In these quaint grounds, reading the In scriptions on worn stones. Here are burled many of the great men of colonial and revo lutionary times. Reading the tombstones revives for us the American history we learned as a schoolboy, as do many other or our exper iences in old Boston. Boston Is the horsiest town we have visited. Even as we write this, we hear the clop-clop of hooves on the pavement far under our win dow. One and two-horse carriages for pleasure riders run night and day, and are heavily patronized by soldiers and sailors and their girls. Taxicabs also are plentiful, and there is a notable intimacy In the traffic, with cars, horse drawn vehicles and pedestrians mingling in the narrow streets. An elderly woman we met at the depot, wife of a Norwegian who was lost with his ship in the Atlantic a year ago. told us Boston reminded her more of London than does any other New World city. s s s s Streamlined Convention WE'VE seen plenty of Oregonians here but no one else from the old home town. A young fellow named Donald Young, who used to be with KFJI and is now doing something here for the navy, stopped us in front of the Statler last night when he saw Klamath Falls on our badge. The Elks confab has been streamlined be cause of the war and lacks many of the con vention frills of other years. But it's big enough to jam-pack the town, and hotel reser vations are at a premium. double character. Just as the individual, by his public acts, reflects a progressive influence on his business, so advertising, that is given over to constructive public affairs, does also. Let's not belittle the merchant who still has (through advertising) to advise people of the goods to sell and who is doing his utmost fact. His reason for being here is to supply goods to the public (and how we do appreciate finding, what we want these days.) - This column keeps harping on new develop ments because they . ARE new, not because there's anything wromf with the old standby. Everybody knows that advertising is a seller of goods. Most of the things we take for granted these days have been brought down in price to general use through advertising. But nobody yet realizes the full possibilities of advertising as a SELLER OF IDEAS. -a a a Here and There THE Third War Loan wl start September , aimed at 20 billion dollars.

THIS fourth term Situation Is iiiiciiscijr f,ii,v9tjiij .u o in dents of history and govern ment. Sooner or later, history tells us plainly, people, tend to be come distrustful of the demo cratic processes (or too liry to assume their share of the re sponsibilities of self-government) and turn to ONE MAN as their saviour. Maybe we've reached that point now. a a TN trying to estimate the fu ture, we can't overlook the millions of men In the armed services. When they come home from the wars, they're going to have a big say as to what the America of the future is to be. Even now, through their letters home, they're exerting an in fluence. Based on talking to hundreds of them, this writer's flat opin ion is that they don't want to come back to an America that i WHOLLY NEW. They're go ing to want to see the old, fa miliar things. They won't even like it if the house has been so completely done over that it will .look strange..

(To the Editor) Readers of this column might be interested to know that thoro li! a iameiiliible shortago of mys tery stories in the libraries o( army and navy camps. Since the boys and girls keep asking for thtin, a plun to correct this oversight has been set In mo tion. Carlton Morse, author of "I Love A Mystery," a radio aer ies, believes that his selection of what he term "the ten best detective stories of all time," Is an extremoly representative list. According to a recent newspaper story, hero Is his list: "Unpleas antness at the Bellona Club," by Dorothy Sayers; "Red Gar denia"' by Jonathan Latimer: i Dnshicll Hammett's "The Da in Curse." Eric Ambler's "Cause for Alarm," 'The Big Sleep." by Raymond Chandler; "Sabotage" by Cleve F. Adams, "Toast to Tomorrow" by Manning Coles; "Murder of an Aristocrat" by Mignon Eberhart; 'The Rasp" by Philip Mac Donald and "The Red Box" by Rex Stout. While the Idea Is a sound one, I can't agree with Mr. Morse that anyone can arbitrarily name a list, for there are mysteries of all kinds which can bo chosen. A better plan would be to simply round up all mystery titles on our shelves and pack age them for mailing. Let the soldiers and sailors declclo after receiving them what they shall read. Mrs. C. A. Well, 463 Congress, Bend, Oregon. Five of the city schools now have a complete set of the En cyclopedia Brittantca junior edi tion, presented through courtesy of Sears, Roebuck company last week to Arnold Gralapp, school superintendent, by J. E. Hawk ins, local manager of Scars. This presentation was in keep ing with Sears' policy of giving educational institution control of the encyclopedia. Recently the Encyclopedia Brtttanica company, owned by Sears, was turned over to the University of Chicago and presentation of the volumes to schools through out the country has followed. In view of th fact that the county schools have been given more attention than the city through the Sear program of sponsoring 4-H dairy calves, Hawkins said, he was very hap py to make this presentation of volumes to the city school sys tem. In behalf of the city school system, Gralapp expressed hi appreciation for the encyclope dias valued at approximately S500. The volumes are for th use of the grade pupils. ir TO SPEAK S Rev.
