With the unusual spring weather we've been treated to the country has undergone a complete change from Its winter drabness and you . can really get the breath ol sum , mer. . Drove up to Fort Klamath and . Chiloquin a few days ago, pausing . here and there along the road. Found that Crooked Creek was just as clear as it ever was, the hatchery there was in good shape . and plenty of tempting brook trout to be seen. That little hatchery , by the way, Is one of the prettiest spots in our high country. There j are a lot of people who have never visited it, but when they do they'll really be surprised. i.. The Wood River Valley, the . most wonderful cattle land in the '. West, is beginning to look normal now that truckload after truckload '. of cattle are coming; in for the summer fattening. Those big lush meadows are a sight for sore eyes. Quincy Buell at the hotel in . Fort Klamath is all set with his summer stock of stories for the , tourists and says it looks like a gieat year. Hope so. Even if it ' isn't, his stories are well worth . listening to. Sometime in the future when the Westside road is paved all the ' way around the lake and the route to Crater Lake . lies that way, . Klamath County will be able to . boast one of the prettiest scenic ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL by KEN McLEOD Perhaps the hardest lesson we ' have to learn is the one that the world grows up about us, the change is so gradual that seldom do we actually become aware of the changes taking place. Then comes tne aay wnen we become aware that someone else desires to share the resources we .have always considered to be our very own. It is than we become con cerned for our future and seek to establish our rights so that we may continue to enjoy a monopoly of the resource we have always considered our - own single-use source of wealth. You bet I We - don't like these newcomers crowd ing us out of our time honored pas tures and so we roll up our sleeves ana light back. Instead of solving our problems irom an over-au use viewpoint, wc devote more and more attention to getting the most important pop tlons of our resources for our own groups. Lobbies and pressure groups flood Washington and the state capitals. Tons of "literature' are distributed. Millions of dol lars are spent to persuade the public to a single-use way ot thinking. It is an old saying, exceedingly chop - worn, history repeats useu, ana I cannot out compare our position today with conditions a century ago, when all the land belonged to the Indian and be, considered the world of his ken, his single use resource. Today we find ourselves in the moccasins of the Indian, for like the Indian, we see resources that we have considered our very own being gradually appropriated for other uses than what brings us direct financial returns. Like the Indian we have our war-dances but being civilized we call them public meetings; and then we send our warriors out to battle against uie oncoming tide, oi course times nave slightly changed in a nun dred years or so and we no long' er strike at the columns of cov ered wagons, for our battle ground is now in the halls of government ana our warriors are committees, commissions, lobbyists, public rela tion experts, politicians and com mon citizens. To anyone who takes time to think wis situation through, the convic tion must become apparant, the battle of single-use is as fruitless as was the struggle ot the Indian to maintain his traditional way of life. In my own short exper ience in observing this perennial struggle I have watched the war riors head bravely Into the fray, armed with their trusty brief cases, mount their trusty steed, a Pullman or stratocrulser, and rush valiantly to battle. I have seen them return jubilant at win ning a minor skirmish but more often, however, in recent times, the return is empty handed and the brave warrior is a baffled if not beaten man, appalled at the forces arrayed against him. only the politician preserves the air of optimism.

A report from Ducks Unlimited informs us that the nesting condi tions in the north arc not as they should be. Persistent bad weather has delayed nesting of both geese and ducks, but the outlook for the future :s still good. Temperatures as low as 31 be low scro were reported in Sas katchewan, bub the geese stuck tight in spite of it. There were reports that some of the birds had headed south again following the unseasonal weather. which had he!d up the migration until mid-April, but there were still tidal waves of birds coming in whenever the weather warmed up a trifle. On the lakes the birds were sticking to the open water In the center and constantly moving to keep it open. 1 Despite the cold weather, the outlook is bright for a good hatch because It will serve to avert drought danger and improve wa ter conditions. Now all we can do is sit around and watt . and hope. In yesterday's paper there was a reprint of an ad boosting Southern Oregon as a vacation er's paradise. And suggesting in a delicate way that it wouldn t be a bad idea if we were to keep in mind the fact that tourists are the third biggest industry in Ore gon and bring in a good many million dollars in trade. Let's all try and treat our visi ters as we'd like to be treated when we are vacationing away from here. It's as simple as all that. My friend R. W.

Let's honor our mothers on this mother's day Remember she gave us her all Let's greet her with roses, with kindness and love And forget not her words to re call. Let's not forget mother, where e'er we may be Let us crown her with mem ories fair Let us twine wreaths of bless ings and cover her brow And pin memories qf love In her hair. This day of all days forget not her love She spared not her life for our sake But gave of her sustenance. kindness and care So let us fond memories awake. Let's give to our mothers this day of all days FRANK I sat waching Old Seneca on a spring spree. It was one of those sou'easters that whip the deep blue water into restless grandeur and crest the waves with rain bowed wbitecaps. Not a craft was in sight, yet imagination pictured unalarmed Senecas out there in their birch bark canoes; their women on the beach, papooses lashed to their backs, grinding corn between stones and tending the fire over which to broil their braves' catch of luscious trout. The white man couldn't go fish ing that day. It wouldn't be trout season for a week yet, but that never hampered the Indian. The lake, streams and forests were his, to take the fish, game and lurs needed for his livelihood. There still are lots of fish, even deer, around here. But few white men who fish Seneca could live off the trout they can lure. Some could, but not many. It's not ordinary angling and no Indians are here to tell their secret: How one of them could, without Seth Green rig. 300 feet of copper wire, trick tackle, gaffs and landing nets, in an hour with out fail, catch enough to feast the chiefs and sachems in the Long House. They may have had some laws that punished game hogs, but probably not, there was such plenty. Yet there's one thing for certain. Indians knew the mating and spawning seasons of fish and wild life and protected them far better than has the white man. Their worship of nature, and their dependence upon it, transcended any tribal game laws that might have existed. There is something about liv ing in the old haunts of the Indian that breeds a genuine respect for him. I guess it's realization of the multitude of things that he could do with the few devices at his command. When you see a paleface hunter go forth, clad In 1500 regalia, with a 1300 repeater rifle and a kit that represents more wampum than the whole Seneca Tribe pos sessed; then see him return at night, fagged out and bramble- covered, without a deer (and three of them ran across your yard that afternoon), somehow you wonder how his forebears ever wrcstet the area from the In dians. Then you visualize the Indian needing venison and deer skin. He has already spotted a certain buck he wants. He knows deer, their habits, their runways.

Let's not forget mother on this oay ot days Let's greet her with kindness and love Let's cherish her memory where ever we go E're she's called to that man sion above. There's no love on earth more deep and profound Than the love mother has in her heart No sorrow to deep, no errors to great That will cause mother's love to depart. Some day she'll be called to that far away land where roses will evermore bloom Tis then we'll recall hasty ac tions and words That left her In shadows and gloom Let s rememDer our motner, ner kind words and love When as children we sat by her side Some day she will rest with a crown on her brow When she's crossed o'er the sil very divide. TRIPP hour, at the right spot, he sits himself down against a hickory tree with his bow, and gets his deer with a single arrow. The In dian wasn't lazy, he Just knew how to do things easily. Adept, we call it. We law to protect the fish and game against our greed; do It by the calendar, clumsily mimicking the Indian's calculations by sun. moon and season; for example: In Seneca's famed fishing inlet, rainbow trout may not be taken until April 1st. The fish migrate by no calendar, so many a year they start up Catharine Creek weeks ahead of the law and, by the time they can be taken, the cream of the rainbow run is back 300 feet below the surface of Sen eca Lake, thousands of them. Like he knew deer, the red man knew his fish and got 'em when they could be got. Today's anglers go by the hundreds, stand on the banks, water at the mouth, watch 'em go upstream and watch 'em come back, compelled to wait for April 1st. That, ironically, also is All Fools' Day which I guess we are. I can't help thinking that I would have enjoyed being an In dian. Army Division To Be Changed WASHINGTON I The Army said today it will reorganize the loth Infantry Division, which has been a special mountain training outfit, into a regular combat in fantry unit using the personnel and equipment of the 37th Division. The change takes effect about June 15. French Fought To Bitter End PARIS Wl The French News Agency reported from Hanoi that French Union forces tried unsuc cessfully last night to break out of the Isolated outpost, Isabelle, three miles south of Dlen Blen Phu. Isabelle was one of the main centers of reslstence in the Dlen Bien Phu complex. It still went on fighting after the heart of the lortress had been overrun. An Associated Press dispatch from Hanoi said that before the rebels swarmed over Isabelle the outpost turned Its guns on main French ammunition stores In the main bastion killing hundreds of rebels.

Mildred Martin Bonanta Vet's Mailbag A 40 per cent drop in tubercu losis deaths among World War II veterans from IMS to 1853. In clusive, was reported by Veterans Administration, which also said provisional data for 1053 indicates a further decline for that year. Several factors In VA's Tubercu losis Control Program brought about the sharp drop, according to Dr. Leo V. Schneider, Chief of the Tuberculosis Control. One was the new methods of treatment for tuberculosis, with VA, the Army and the Navy In troducing the controlled chemo therapy program in 1916. The other was the extensive TB case-finding survey program begun in 1MB in all VA hospitals and outpatient clinics. These factors, plus the decline of tuberculosis deaths In the gen eral population, are credited with the 40 per cent drop In TB deaths among World War II veterans, Dr. Schneider said. This decline Is all the more dra matic when weighed against the steady rise In the TB mortality rale among World War II veterans that started with the beginning of the war, Dr. Schneider said. He put It this way: "Since the beginning of World War II. there was a stendy rise In the mortality rale from tubercu losis In the group of men ac cepted for service in the Armed Forces. This group, referred to as 'one of peculiar significance, ' for it is a screened population from which the majority, If not all, of tuberculosis cases were removed, had an average tuberculosis mor tality of less than 4 per 100,000 In 1042 the mortality Increased to 6 In 1043, 10 in 1044, and 12 In 1045. while tho mortality rate for the civilian unscreened populating corrected for age, during the years Lee Hendricks JWE ARE OPENBjlf CWk ALL DAY r Every Sunday JjJB L 9 A.M.

Wo'd like lo FNplnln about the fi nancing and the mission ot OAP, and bring you some of I ho high lights of our own squadron ac tivities. CAP is almost entirely selt-suii-porting. CAP and CAPO members buy their own uniforms, and earn and raise the money lor our own activities In the squadron. The CAP gets only a dribble of money from Washington Tho Air Kori'o supplies a twin-engine Uevehcrall for each office, lends several hun dred obMilcsceM planes to CAP lor orientation lllglita, etc. On Air Force ordered missions such as nlr search and resrue, members are reimbursed for fuel and lubricants used. A regular Air Force offlcor with a liny stuff sits in ench of CAPS 83 wings. The 63 wings include the 4B states, Hawaii, Puerlo Itlco, Alaska, and the District ot Colum bia. The mission of CAP as a "vol untary civilian auxiliary of the USAF" are divided Into three main parts; certain nonrouibat op erational missions as directed by the secretary ol the Air Force; maintenance of a pool of carelullv selected cadets, trained In ground and pre-llliitu subjects for the Air Force; and maintenance of a pro gram ol aviation education for the American youth together with gen eral aviation education of tho pub lic. In ItUil. a total of 48.376 young men and women were engaged in learning the mechanics of the Air Force as CAP Carielu. Also In IB6J. many missions were flown for the Red Cross and other national, state, and community agencies. The CAP flew blood-lilts, end hv lifts, along with dropping food to stranded people caught in snow storms. They also kept open an emergency radio network during floods, fires, earthquakes, and tornadoes. During 19S3. CAP flew 77 per cent of the total hours and sorties flown on search and rescue mis sions monitored by the USAF Air Rescue Service within the conti nental limits of the United Stales.

In 1M6, VA began Its extensive chemotherapy program for the treatment of tuberculosis with Ihe new "miracle" drugs that were being developed then, the llrst of which was streptomycin. In 1948. VA initiated Its Central Tubercu losis Register as part of Its far flung TB case-finding program. The 13 TB deaths per 100.000 World War II veterans In 1946, the rate dropped to 10.B In 1348 and has been continuously downward since then, dropping to 6.2 deaths per 100.000 In 1053, with a further decline Indicated for 1053.

Anyway, let's Nay I'm going Into business of making, selling, or dis tributing bath tubs lu the eleven western slates. The Hint tiling I'd probably have lo do is make or gel mv hands on a lot ol bnili lubs. Then I'd have to udvcrtlno them In the newspapers so (leople will buy my tubs liisirnrt of snm.-. one else's and also because I've unl to convince the stores tlu-y should order my lubs lor their customers. The next thing I havr j la tto ,1s manufacture or store them, Ihe lubs Dial Is, unl Ihe letiMomers, in a place that's cluse-l lo these stores so Dial when they do order I can send 'ent as cheap and as quick as possible. ; The besl name for such a place. I learned. Is distribution point or leenter. Anywov. I've got to hrve a distribution point. So . , , I get ! ahold nf a map and go In wotk ; Most of the people tu the states I've i been talkuig about, live In or neur Pan Francisco and the Hay Area, ! Portland, Heattle, Hpokanc, Boise, Iteno, and Halt l.aka City. Ho, I make a circle with a cam jpass that will touch these markets on Ihe map. Alter doing Ihls 1 I find Klamalh la the anal where I stuck Ihe point of Uie compass, so I've got my distribution point! Now, the bot dlittrlbullon ol:il has lo boast other things, so I've been told, besides being closest to my markets. It has to have more than one railroad, and Klamath rc tuatty has three transcontinental rail connections. Then It has tu have hlghw-ays going to my mars- , els so Uie auto freight outfits can come and go. Last but not least, my distribution point needs a good airport and alrll.-ies for air exptest and air freight. Klamalh has all of these it's a naturall When you have a natural distri bution point like Klamath, It takes a lot of people to buy, sell, aud handle all Ihe things that come und go, like bath tubs. This means big payrolls lots of folks working greater prosperity lor everyone. A lot of manufacturers, whole salers and distributors have ttl ready discovered Klamath Is a natural distribution point. Here's Ihe proof. In those eleven weste , slates we were talking about, or " 13 cities have moro dlstilbutlini volume than Klamath. And ... In the states of Ortgon.
