Sunday, Fab. 5, 1N Paw 1 Council President Heads Area Scouting HERALD AND NEWS, KUmaHl Fall!. Oregon Charles F. B;tne of Klamath Falls heads up the adult organi zation behind some 3.200 scouts in the Modoc Area Council. The trucking firm vice president knows what it's like to devote time to the scouting movement. But he's the first man to speak up for the satisfaction and feeling of accomplishment it has given him. Bane's bailiwick extends through central and southeast Oregon and part of Northern California. Need less to say, he spends a great deal of time on the road, just tending to Scout Council busi ness. Bane says his job and those ot other volunteers is without pay. He estimates he, spends about f0 hours a month and drives some 11,000 miles in scout work. . "Our payment is the pride we have in helping today's youths who will be tomorrow's leaders." he said. "There is a great deal of self satisfaction in this type ofi work." The council president sees the scouting movement as a major force against the communists. who in all countries are trying to influence the young people. "Scouting is the most dynamic program I have ever participated in," Bane said. , As president of the council, the Klamath Falls man has striven to put the council in the best possible financial condition and to subject the largest number of boys possible to scouting. "I was born hi a town of 200 and knew what it was like to, lack an organization like t h e scouts," he said. "There were some organization activities, but when they were over, we were on our own." "Honor" is a key word so far as Bane is concerned. "If we teach a boy nothing more than honor, I feci that the organiza tion has done a really tremen dous job." What is scout ing's greatest needs? Despite the rewards Bane mentioned, it is adult leadership. "But we also need more boys," he smiled. "We need all we can get." Financial assistance is also needed on a sustaining basis. Im- provements are needed at the scout camp on Crescent Lake. Adults interested in scout work need only call the local office or adult Ieadere in council area towns to get the information they seek. wan &i ' jriFin in $ i O ' XM 3 V &! 86 t 5 , ? liiliftin'riitiiiOTl)ifia-iiniii1-T-i ' ",, ' - ill Wi'iiii tiiK'Uilll "the Answer CHARLES F.

Lee i i r"i , - " f if - i By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatiires Question: I am building sev eral cabinets and want to make the doors of the same kind of striated plywood that is on the walls. of my den. However, this striated plywood is only one eighth of an inch thick and ob viously much too fragile for use as a door: I have tried tw'o lum ber yards and can not get the striated wood any thicker than one-quarter of an inch. If I glue the eighth-inch wood to some three-quarter inch plywood, will it hold permanently in a door which will be opened and closed quite often? ' Answer: If it is glued proper ly with a good quality glue, it will hold "permanently." That's how three-quarter-inch plywood is. made in the first place, by gluing together sheets of thin wood. The striations in the type of wood you will use as a facing very ef fectively conceal brads or small nails. That makes it possible to glue the two pieces of wood to gether, then brad them at a few strategic points to give added pressure to the bonding while the glue is setting. Incidentally, if you want something a little extra special, buy squares of the striat ed plywood instead of a single large, sheet. Glue these squares onto the three-quarter-inch ply wood, placing them so that the grains of adjacent squares run in opposition directions. You will get a pleasing light and dark effect, depending on where you are standing when viewing the result. The squares can be finished ex actly the same as you would have finished a single sheet.

Ritchey is division manager for Copco and Stocke brand is plant superintendent for Johns-Manville.

That question has intrigued sci ence fiction writers for many years. Since the advent of the Space Age. it has attracted grow ing attention from theologians. The latest religious scholar to express a view on it is the Rev. L. C. Mcilugh. S J., associate edi tor of the distinguished Catholic magazine America. Father McHugh believes that intelligent life not only exists be yond earth, but that it is quite a "common" phenomenon in the vast reaches of space.

"Why should these things not be generally true in a physical universe characterized by uni formity of law and process? "God made the universe for His glory, not as something to lie gained but as a benefit to be be stowed: and above all it consists in sharing His happiness with ra tional creatures. Does it not seem strange to say that His power, immensity, beauty and eternity are displayed with lavish gener osity through unimaginable reach es of space and time, but that the knowledge and love which alone give meaning to all this splendor are confined to this liny globe where self-conscious life began to flourish a few millenia ago?" 0vr 2,000,000 Feet Now In Successful Operation Before you Invest in ony port obi? sprinkler irrigation system, let us ihfw you how STOUTBILT mech anized equipment cuts time and labor cents. 5iop in or write for compile information and literature. imn J.
