An other is the long-staying visitor, who apparently figures as long as he's doing his good deed, he might as well make 11 for the whole day. Or, the bubbly nolhing-gets-me- down visitor whose presence prob- nmy is an asset at a cocktail par ly but sometimes is more than a sick person can lake. Strike a happy medium in cheerfulness. I often wonder what the patient. who has to be confined, thinks when a visitor remarks, "Boy. docs that bed look good. I could use some of the rest you're get ting." Or, the reaction of the pa tient to the visitor who says. 'You look better than I exnect- 'd." or. "You look worse than I expected." I here also Is the "I told you i" visitor, who reminds the pa tient that if he had listened to good ole Charley this illness could have been prevented. And there linally, I vc noticed, the well my doctor says" visitor, who's the imminent authority on the patient's illness because she has talked it over with her own phy sician. "1 wish the visitor would quit comparing ailments.", one prom inent iew ork physician told me when we were discussing this subject. "And above all quit giv ing tree advice.

In response to a letter from Walter Turner, chairman of the Oregon State Legislative Commit tee for the Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, copies of the protests will be sent to all brotherhoods concerned. Dom Siriaani noted the train service cut would mean no south bound Friday train, no Sunday train at all; meaning those wish ing to weekend in the Bay Area would lose out and students plan ning to weekend at home would have to find other means of trans portation. Helen Hutaff said cur tailment at this time would have an adverse effect on the ski bowl development. Francis McEnerney told of a meeting in Sacramento with a committee of southern Siskiyou supporters, Assemblywoman Paul ine Davis and Harvey O. Banks. director of the State Department of Water Resources, at which time the Box Canyon Dam proposal was discussed. He said the Box Canyon Dam will create a three prong lake stretching into a vast hitherto inaccessible recreation area and would be an even greater asset than the ski bowl for southern Siskiyou County. He told the chamber the state would not amend its budget to permit a study estimated at $100,- 0IK) next year unless it gets word from people in authority in this area that the dam is a "must." The chamber passed a resolu tion asking for the feasibility study and will send letters to Gov. -elect Pat Brown, Pauline Davis, Har vey O. Banks and also to serv ice clubs, brotherhoods and all oth er interested persons urging imme diate consideration of this plan. Slated to have its annual elec tion at the dinner meeting last Thursday, the membership voted to act as a nominating commit tee and set a special election meet- ng and Christmas party for Mon day, December 29, at the Hotel Dunsmuir.

Wentworth made a pitch for a hroader chamber program, stating in the past the president has been overburdened and overworked and that the chamber program repre sented the length and breadth ol the president, his interests and particular supporters. He pointed out the community is taking on a greater, new role and that the chamber must enlist the interests of all and meet their interests also. Boys Arrested For Sign Damage YREKA The Siskiyou County Sheriff's Department took two 17- ycar-old boys into custody, last week, charged with pulling up a road sign and smashing it through the window of a residence in Gre nada.

I , -.' x 14 5 h ? ti x?& HAROLD DONNER, new editor of the Lake County Ex aminer, has lived in the Pacific Northwest since 1930. At one time he was a columnist for the Klamath Falls Herald and News and later published a weekly news paper in tho state of Washington. He succeeds Les Shaw who resigned to join the Lakeview Mining Company at Lake New Editor Heads Paper LAKEVIEW Announcement of a new editor of- the Lake County Examiner has been made by Glen H. Charles, publisher of the week ly newspaper here. Succeeding Les Shaw as editor is Harold Donner, a native of Horton, Kansas, who came to the Pacific Northwest from Nevada, Missouri, in 1930. He worked at Portland in advertising and even tually in sales for Columbia Film Exchange where he remained for 11 years. During that time he was married to a Grants Pass girl and engaged in free-iance writing. He came to Klamath Falls in 1043 where he was stationed at the airport in the Air Force pilot train ing program. As part of his pro gram, he wrote a column for the Herald and News. Entirely by accident, he says, he got into small town newspaper work. When an operation preclud ed heavy physical labor, he cast about to determine a new field. At the office of the Payette (Ida ho) Independent Enterprise in 1950, he found an editor was need ed and he took the job for two years. After that, he worked on papers in Eastern Idaho, Beaver ton, Oregon and then moved to Okanogan, Washington, where he edited and published the Okanogan Independent. The eventual attrac tion has been back to Oregon, es pecially through the urging of Mrs. Donner who likes livine in her native state. Donner says their move to Lake- view will probably be their final one as he is an ardent devotee of hunting and fishing and is sin cerely impressed by the hospitality of the local residents. The Donners have rented a home and placed their 8-year-old son in school.. They are parents also of two grown daughters and grandparents of two girls and a boy. IN HAWAII LAKEVIEW Marine Pfc.

(UPD Four children leaped from a sec ond story window of their burning home into the safety of their mother's arms here early Sunday. The youngsters, ranging in age from 6 to 11, were the children of Mr. and Mrs. George Klinke. One of them, George, 10, sprained an ankle when the force of his fall knocked his 110-pound mother to the snow-covered ground. The blaze, which apparently started from either faulty wiring or an overheated refrigerator in the kitchen, destroyed- the home. It took firemen four hours to quell the blaze. The family had just finished re modeling the home and was in I he process of moving in when the fire broke out. Four of the Klinkes' six children were staying in the house Saturday night while the parents and two other children slept in the home next door. Judy Klinko, 11, was awakened hy the smell of smoke in her bed room. She roused the other child ren and they rushed to a window where their screams awakened Mr. and Mrs. Klinke. 0L' SANTA Was Never This Generous! 10 95 City Council Signs Pact; More Agreements To Come DUNSMUIR After balking over the request to sign a full and complete" freeway agreement, me Dunsmuir City Council agreed re- :ently to sign the agreement a presented by F.

Saunders estimated cost of the extension Alert Slated By Air Guard SALEM Residents in areas housing Army and Air National Guard units are cautioned not toj be alarmed when a practice alert is sounded and the Oregon National Guard is temporarily mobilized. This warning came from Maj. Gen. Thomas E. Rilea, Oregon's adju tant general, who earlier this week announced that a statewide prac tice alert would be held to test the guard's current alert and mobili zation plans. "When the alert comes, the resi dents of Oregon will see their Na tional Guardsmen mobilized quick ly to carry out the duties assigned to them in case of an emergency," General Rilea said. "This will give our fellow citizens a chance to see Oregon National Guard in training and learn more about the mission assigned to our National Guardsmen in peace and war." The exact time and date of the practice alert will be kept secret until just before the alarm is sounded, General Rilea explained. General Rilea s "mobilization or der" will be issued to the head quarters of the major national guard units, who will in turn trans mit the order to the units under their command. The practice alert will affect all 90 units of the Oregon Army and Air National Guard located in 38 Oregon communities.
