I'm merely stating a Iscu Deb earlier mentioned th time element. Working all day with one eve on the clock. Now on top of that Herb Hemlngsen Just ramt in and told me that we were too tight ithe space, that is) and we d have to do something. So we lighten up a few pagea and add two more. And when you get all that done and the presses roll then your circula tion headache Harts. Borne years ago wt used to roll the press about tour or flvt In the afternoon. That waa fine. All we hsd waa a four or five thousand circulation right here in town and the carriers could get the paper de livered in tune for before dinner consumption. Now we cover the area from Chiloquin to Stronghold on the sam day, or aa close as w can. So. we start the presa at I 30 in the afternoon. Then cornea fall and shorter dava and we move the press time up to 3: IS, where it is now. When winter hits and it gets dark at 4:30 and the roads are clogged with snow and mud well have to speed up again. We're work ing on that one now. If it Isnt ont thing It's another. But wt lite it. MUCK season Just around corner and the birds beginning to come into the basin in ever in creasing numbers. Those old green heads sure look good when they set their wiruts and pitch In for a rest on the lakes, river and pond of : th basin. Hunting should be good ! this year. i HERE'S my candidate for the most .,.,..,. v.rtlumnl rl the week. It's taken from- the October Issue or oourmei ana reaas: "Rough and Rugged 3 Year Old Cheddar.

I Just posted a small wager with Jimmy Barnes on me snow ititattnn Ut "(intends there won't be two Inches of snow on the streets at any one time between now ana the 24th ot December at midnight. I say there will. And that's one bet I sincerely hope I lose. While we were making that arrangement Bev Thomas made the statement that his horse evidently thought it was going to be a tough winter. They have put on a heavy coat of hair In readiness for what cornea and they started doing It earlier than usual. Mavbe that'a a sign of a tough winter alright. Doesn't the fact that deer Invade a town mean a blii aardy winter? Well, several days ago a four-point buck turned up In Keith Cobo's front yard at the end of Conger avenue. When Keith dashed Into the house for a cam era the buck Jumped into Link river, swam across and took off over the hill Into park territory. Maybe he's going to break into the deer pen out there an feed off the city this winter. Draw your own con clusions. All I'm doing is hoping for a mild winter.

City, Suburbs Of the seven cases, all of which are In Isolation. Dr. Kerron said that most are in the city and nearby suburbs although there have been two in outlying areas.
