I've been taking in an ex change collection the past lew days (those who pledged volumes will please come through) and hav ing a whale of a time leafing through them. Probably the high point of the experiment so tar came last Satur day. Thumbing through a volume of Twelve Against the Gods, chap ter on Mnhomct, when a slip of paper fluttered out. Turned out to be a notice. Neatly lettered on the yellow bit of parchment were the words: "Sleeping, do not honk.'1 There. Is every likelihood of my going craty long before I ever figure that one out. Currently the staff down here Is busy with the annual Christmas edition, which la published the day before Thanksgiving. Cant help wondering what the headlines will be in this one. Looking over the last three we issued I find that in 1949 the streamer read: "Coal Strike Set For Tonight." The 1950 issue carried the cheerful news that' "Chinese Push Yanks Back." while the 1951 issue carried anoth er tale of patbos "US Plane, Fired On By Reds, Stilt Missing.'1 Let us bope that there will he something a little more cheerful in this year's news. The combina tion of Christmas and Thanksgiv ing should contain at least one small ray of hope and happiness. No wonder we find the younger generation going (o pot when It comes to the proper use of the Eng lish Language. Education Is Inking a beating at the hands of com mercial interests. Good advertis ing, and a drawing card, no doubt, buk when you come across an ad that states that "Dubble Bubble tastes real good" you are caused to wonder. The statement came trom one Julie Payne, daughter of John Payne, the well-known Holly wood actor. If Mrs. O'Neill, my teacher, ever reads that one she'll go oft like a rocket on the Fourth of July. Bad enough to put bubble gum In your mouth without including your ' loot. Roy Rowe was casually discus sing a plan the other day. Roy. by the way, is the fire chief of this town and the driver of that bright red KFFD car. Anyway, Roy says that it would be a good idea If the townspeople would take an optimistic outlook on ths future instead of a gloomy one, "After all." says Roy, "When a man walks in your store and asks how business is. how do you know if he's a fellow resident or an out-of-towner asking around with an eye to settling here and opening a new business?" He goes on to say, "If we all give song about the blues of business he may pull out and start somewhere else." Not a bad suggestion, Roy. Be sides, it might do a little to cheer up the people around here. I don't know why it has to be a crime to admit that business is good.

The Democrats CAUGHT IN THE ROUNDS By DEB ADDISON ' The tall end of last week was pent attending two meetings, si multaneously, or as nearly simul taneously as possible, at Eugene. Before bluing the highway Wed nesday a check was made on road conditions, with no warnings re ceived. At the last minute a whis per from the Red Gods was heeded and the good old knobby sawdust treads went on the rear wheels. That was the best hunch ever -followed. In the course of about 100 miles through falling snow, we passed five cars which had slid off the road and at least SO which were stopped and struggling for or with chains. The snow treads took us through without strain or pain. At least one big buck survived the devastation of last winter and the plague of hunters this fall. A proud four-point bounded off the shoulder of the highway up towards 6and Creek and disappeared in the gloaming of 'the Jack pines. No large dogs were observed at Chemult- For one thing you could not observe anything beyond the brief penetration of the headlights through the falling snow, and for another we were busy hunting up a wrecker for that fellow back in the borrow pit. One of the good things about going away from home la meeting friends from borne.

A turn through the lobbv of the Eugene Hotel produced Bill Hous ton, Mel Carpenter and Colman O'Loughlin. It seems that the Elks, the Legion Club and others about the state are scratching their head over what llquor-by-the-drink may mean to them. It was our pleasure to instl-' tute a quick Old Home Week by re-introducing Colman to Harry and Rita McLain. Rita was Fort Klamath girl Castel-Llppert tribe and is an old friend of the O'Loughllns. Harry is advertising director of the Oregon Journal. Andy Collier appeared at the Journalism Building. He smiled down dynamically, with a full head of dark hair, from a dusty pic ture frame in the Dean's office. Henry Fowler, president of tha Bend Bulletin, who was present at the time, appeared in the same panel with Andy also with youth ful appearance Including hirh stiff collar with full head of hair. Henry recalled that In his under graduate days the manager, of the Emerald, the student daily, partici pated in the profits, if any. He paid for his senior year that way with 1350 If recollection Is correct Andv Collier did all right In the college newspaper business Iqp.) This column should brag, just a bit. about the distinguished com pany kept, simultaneously, at these simultaneous meetings in Eugene. One meeting was an Inspection tour by the Oregon Newspaper Publishers' School of Journalism Committee, Including: the (fore mentioned Henry Fowler we were able to dig him a little about the Klamath potatoes this time: Art House of the "House of Leland", president of the Advertising Asso ciation of the West; and Malcolm Bauer, about the only Oregon news paperman whose entire time Is de voted to writing editorials, for the Oregonlan. The other member, Earle Rich ardson. Is publisher of the Dallas Itcmiser-Observer. Being a week ly newspaper publisher he had to stay home and work. The other meeting was that of the Pacific Northwest Newspaper Advertising Executives Association, complete with 49 members pres ent from Oregon. Washington, Idaho. British Columbia and Alaska. The star attraction and princi pal guest speaker for this tongue twlstlng outfit was Clyde Bedell. He has been advertising dlreaor for Chicago'a Marshall Field Co. and now is author, lecturer, con sultant and foremost authority on retail advertising.

II- navy umcers Face Pay Cut WASHINGTON W The Navy has informed Congress that about 4.000 officers will be denied earned promotions and some 2.000 others may be "busted" In rank unless Congress does something In a hurry. The action will be required, the Navy contends, under an amend ment to the Defense Appropriation Act which limits the number of officers m all services who may be paid In each grade. The measure, passed earlier this year, was sponsored by Rep. Davis IR-Wlsi. who said It was deslcned to keep the military from becoming "brass-heavy." By JACK Bt l.r!
