There might be numerous reasons lor this. Perhaps people re slow startlnir. Perhaps the supply of Western haberdashery fell below normal. Perhaps people couldn't remember where they stored last year's stuff. Perhaps the weather bas had something to do with It, But the least we can do' is urge people to turn out. In case there Is any doubt as to how you should look we include a quick sketch to sort of give you an idea. i Speaking of the tfeather I no ticed yesterday that the city po lice riding around on the three wheelers had the band warmers tl tached to the handlebars. Hey, fellas, don't you know it was the 25th of June. Summer and all that? ; And speaking of police, have you The Soviet action in shooting down an unarmed Swedish rescue airplane Is reminiscent of a sim ilar Incident two years ago when the Russians knocked out a de fenseless U.S. naval plane in the came Baltic Sea area, j The Russians naturally have come Up with their customary phony explanations, blaming the whole thing on the harmless vic tims, saying they were flying over Soviet territory and that they fired first. i Probably the Kremlin doesn't ex pect anybody with a clear head to swallow this guff. It can have effect only on those deluded souls who still think there are big grains Of truth In anything the Russians ay. Unfortunately, there may be more of these souls than we like to concede, since Moscow's trans parent fabrications about- germ warlare in Korea seem to have been accepted by many naive Eu ropeans. , . This newest show of Russian de pravity, however, need not be in terpreted as a sign that the Soviet armies are spoiling for a fight. It may actually, be evidence of the exact reverse. What is entirely likely is that the Russians- have a pathological lear of being discovered in their weakness. The sharpest experts we have on the Soviet Union rate the Reds seriously weak in important enonomlo categories vital to the .prosecution of a war. .

As a citlien driver I would much prefer Uiat it be attached to the back of the vehicle, but the state officials don't seem to agree with this theory Noticed the first new sign a few davs ago under pleasant circum stances. A state officer had his car' parked up by Riverside school and was out pitching Softball for a bunch of youngsters Ml the play ground behind the school.

I nresume that the crepe soled version of the old cowboy boot was put out to minimize one of the dangers they faced? Like walking on slippery pavement?

The old timers and those cow boys who still actually do a lot of honest-to-gosh range work must be spinning, in their respective graves and beds. - Don't throw away those empty milk cartons, madame.

And are almost as inexpensive as wood these days. share of their industrial production devoted to the output of arms. But lt does suggest that this tremen dous facade of strength might crumble in a long conflict with America. . The Russians dare not let the legend of their military might lose force. It Is perfectly ln character with that purpose to put on an oc casional show of belligerence in the general zone of their borders. They undoubtedly believe they may thereby suggest to the free world that Russia's fringe is bristling with impregnable defense strong I points. Such incidents as this have their value for Russian home consump tion too. Dictators live on artificial ly generated fears of outside ene mies. What better way to convince the poor, depression-ridden Rus sian that his burdens are necessary than to dream up a real live for eign plane sauntering suspiciously over Soviet soil? The event is new, but the method and the goal are old. We shall nev er have an end to this kind of thing so long as we have nations ruled by men who know only the raw creed of power for the sake of power.

Here's a tip from Dr. Dick Cur rin, the amateur rock wall man. He doesn't advance his theory as a scientific fact, but says he's found that it works with him. On the evenings that I'm work ing outside ion the rock wall, of course! when I've taken chloro phyll tablets the mosquitoes leave me alone, he said. When I haven't taken chlorophyll they start chew ing. The ony mosquitoes that bite you. the Doc explained, are fe males that are ready to lay their eggs. Mosquitoes (eed on plants, but the females must have blood from warm blooded animals or cold blooded. It doesn't make any difference to lay their eggs. Maybe, said he, the chlorophyll makes you smell like a plant so they give up hopes of getting any blood out of you. Warm blooded animals have thermostats that keep the blood at 98.6 except when you get the measles, son cola blooded animals take on the temperature of Uieir surroundings . . . but that doesn't make any difference to mosquitoes: chlorophyll seems to. Try it. Thank goodness our medicos are possessed with scientific curiosity. We finally have a report on por cupine as tne Main Meat course.

For anyone who hates rats as much as I do, it Is a pleasure to comply with Mrs. R's request to discuss Well's disease. This is much more a disease of rats than it is of human beings, but in rats the disease can last (or a long time, and these pests then can become a source of dan ger to human beings. The germ which causes Well's disease is excreted ln the urine of infected rats, and therefore sewer workers, coal miners, ditch dig- gers, fish cutters, or any others who work in damp places Infested by rats are liable to catch the di sease. Indeed, there have' been a num ber of cases of human disease ac quired by swimming in contam inated ponds or canals. Like other germ diseases of man kind, there is an interval between infection and the appearance of the first symptom which is usually about eight to 13 days. Once this period has passed, signs of the di sease come on rapidly usually with chills and fever. KLAMATH BASIN ROUNDUP ASSOCIATION JAMBOREE DANCE ARMORY SAT.

Ore., that was printed in the Sac ramento Bee. Like this: "Pour a few spoonsful of acid vinegar on the quills then repeat In five or 10 minutes. Walt a iew minutes then pour any kind of oil over the quills and watch results. The acid removes the lime from the quills and they simply soften and wilt, and after the olt Is ap plied the quills simply pop out with out touching them. It's painless. I've done this with perlect results." So be sure there's vinegar and cooking oil in your grub box. and that you have heavy leather gloves. After you've Dainlesslv treated the $Dhdah Headache, pafns In the muscles and sometimes disturbances in the digestive tract Or other evidences of illness are frequent. There are a number of unpleasant complica tions of the disease also, and about one person In 20 who has, a severe attack dies from the disease. It is important that an early and correct diagnosis of Weil's disease ne made, ana inis is not always easy because lt resembles other acute lnfectioas, and since It is not exactly common, a problem ln diag nosis is often present. Furthermore, treatment is not thoroughly satisfactory, even when given early. Both penicillin and aureomycin are used, but their ef fectiveness in cure is not complete. Weil's disease is another ex ample of a condition about which one beard very little a few years ago, but which seems to be becom ing somewhat more common. Per haps the most Important thing about it is that lt provides one more reason for man to wage un ceasing warfare on rats. 7A. RaIHv'c Ranri $120 I Per person (tax ine.)
