The historians have a name for this period into which the hitherto relatively ORGANIZED economy of the world sank alter the decline and fall of Rome. They call it the Dark Ages. Hunger, want, suffering, in security and fear were Its outstand ing characteristics as pictured for us by the records that have come down to us from that dark and bloody time. Unless its present downward trend is CHECKED, the much larger, much more complex, world of our day can slip Into another Dark Age. The troubles of the British, which are basic bread and butter troubles tracking back to lack of production of the things which people must hare to exist, point that out to us very clearly. m m JJERE in America we still have plenty to eat and plenty to wear but we are already suffering from lack of housing to shelter us from the storm. Already, you see, we are beginning to look stark funda mentals In the eye. All due to LACK OF PRODUC TION. We are STILL an island of rela tively riotous plenty. But don't fool yourself. We can't remain happy and prosperous in a. world that is slipping back into the Dark Ages. Unless we - can bring some semblance of order and normal production back into the world, we too will slip Into the abyss In tune. Alturas Woman On Breneman Program ALTURAS.

The ride, planned to extend to Portland, covering points of In terest en route and 30 days of time, for the entertainment of Mrs. Jim Matteson (Queen Edna), Mrs. Guy Williamson, chosen Queen-For-A-Day on May 6 over a Mutual net work program, and Jim Matteson, was culminated at Crater Lajte na tional park. ' Lloyd "Andy" Andrews, operator of Andy's Guide service. v who of fered the guided trail ride to Mrs. Williamson on her previous visit to Klamath Falls, advised the party that due to illness and other cir cumstances he was unable to con tinue the trip beyond Crater lake. The riders, all "tenderfeet." show ing the marks of travel, were never theless noticeably disappointed In foregoing future hardships on the trail and entertainments offered in the Itinerary, however they agreed that lt would be nice to get home earlier than expected. The Matte sons, who live In Hawthorne. Calif., have a small son whom they left In the care of friends. Local business men gave the vis itors a night at the Rim lodge at Crater lake and offered a trip by car this week-end over the terri tory they would have covered on horseback.

Otherwise the queens and their escort will be returned to Medford where they will board plane for their homes In Southern California. Lloyd Burlcy, trail guide, Invited the group to ride bark over the trails to Lake o' the Woods with him, spending some time fishing en route. In order to extend the visit. He agreed to wait with the horses and camp outfits at the lake until a decision was made. Sleeping out under the stars, eat ing beans boiled over a campflre, and Jogging over rough trails on horseback was an entirely new ex perience to the three visitors, none of whom had ridden since child hood pony rides. Besides the stiffness mid aching muscles acquired from li" unusual exercise of riding, several other In cidents along the troll were chalked up as experiences lo recount around the fireside on long winter eve nings. The colt Mrs. Williamson was riding slipped crossing a stream and fell on her. bruLlng her side and hip. but no bones were broken and outside of edging into a chair at an angle when sitting later, all was well. A short side trip, seven miles, not on the itinerary was .lade when the guide, missing the blazes along the trail, took the party on a slight detour into virgin territory. Sleep ing on the bosom of Mother Nature was a little rough on the riders the first nights out but thev were soon able to adjust themselves to her curves, to .rising at the crack of dawn to Matteson's whistled bugle call, catching flaptacks on the third flap and other details of a pack trip one all three agreed they would never forget.
