There were many and varied
types of riders, horses, riggings

minions of the law, drugstore
cowboys' and cowgirls, and lady
dudes, some preferring to travel
out by automobile. The greater

We conservationists, sportsmen,
and lovers of nature, should be
among me iirst to realize the
importance of winning this war,
and to rally to the call of the
bond drive. We are now de
prived or, or at least restricted,
in our enjoyment of the recrea
tional advantages that we con
sider to be of such great im
portance to our way of life. If
we are again to enjoy our vaca
tions nunting, fishing, camping,
boating, visiting our sea shores
ano national forest and park
areas, we must do everything
within our power to bring this
terrible strueele to an end. Th
Dest contribution to the cause
we stay-at-homes can make is
to buy bonds and more hnnrtt
buy until it hurts. Joe Hicks
has undertaken the mnn-i7nH
lob, for the Kiwanis club, of
putting the Fifth Bond Drive
over, and we all must do our
part by word and deed to make
this drive as successful as the
previous ones. Klamath county
can put it over. What are we
