wanted to know him.
In most of his pictures, he
looks too cold and intellectual
for anyone to want to know.
WHEN the crowd is seated
" chairs are provided for
these dignified visitors; the regu
lar press conference reporters
stand President Truman enters
through a side door. His visitors
rise, naturally.
The President is wholly re
laxed and at home. He makes us
feel at home. The late President
Roosevelt was always completely
at ease himself and charming
and thoughtful as well. But this
man someway is different He
is ONE of the common people,
not merely gracious and friend
ly with common people.
HE speaks a few homey words

for questions after the manner
of the regular press conferences.
These editors, who boss the cor
respondents whose job it is to
attend the regular affairs, are
oddly bashful. Their questions
are as halting and as siiuea as
those that usually follow when a
distinguished sneaker at a Knife
and Fork club announces that he
will try to answer questions if
any are asked.
Finally an editor from Water-
bury (Conn.) breaks the ice, asu-
ing Mr. Truman now aoout mat
black tie striped faintly with
white he recently wore with his
tux. The President laughs heart
ily. "The haberdashers told me
it was the last word," he grins.
"Where," the Waterbury man
asks, "can I set one like it?
"1 11 loan you this one, the
President chuckles, "if you'll see
that I get it back.
(He does. too. and the man
from Waterbury wears it the fol-
lowing mint at the concluding
banauet of the society, and gets
much welcome Kiaaing as a re
sult.)

By tho lake shores and the rivers,

Now tho robin Is gully singing

Birds are nesting In the marshes
and up on the mountains high
Where the great pines lift their

All the crystal streams are swol

Ice.
Flowing through the fertile val
leys inuking them a paradise;
Hedged by mountains so majes

sun.
And the western sky is flaming
when the close of duy has
come.
Klamath is a land of beauty
flowering shrubs and stately

Lakes and rivers, hills and val

design.
Pathways winding through the

As they sing their songs of wel
