OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS
"Let us have faith that right makes might, and
in that faith let us to the end dare to do our
duty as we understand it" Abraham Lincoln
STOP AND THINK
When wonders are rom'ng ro fast that we only ask
what next?" stop and think a minute of this one. Radio
fans in America have heard the ticking of Big Ben. the
'clock of the parliament tower in London, althougn a
Londoner in the street underneath it t:-.rnot hear it.
Soon all the world will be in the sound of on? human
Toice. All the races can talk together from their home
firesides. This ought to make humanity feel more hu
manly akin, p-.-om-jt? lindir .. anting among the peoples
and prevent w;.r.
Will it? We had the same hope of the printin.tr
press, which v:a:'. the wonder of its time; the same of the
telegraph, U'.phone and ocean cable, which were the
wonders of their time.
They gave us prompt news of the World war. Will
the radio give us still prompter news of a still greater
war? Will the people at home tune in to hear the
thunder of artillery, the scream of shells and the crash
of their explosions, and the whirr of machine guns after
the word that a great battle has begun thousands of mibs
away? Perhaps hear even the groans of soldiers insane
from the agony of their wounds? Perhaps, too, the radio
will also carry pictures to accompany the roar of con
flict, showing the dead on the field and all the realities
which only those who do the fighting know at first hand.
With a fleet of one hundred and twenty vessels, the
navy is forth on the Pacific, in the greatest war game
we have ever held, to attack Pearl harbor, Hawaii, the
one big harhnr between our Pacific coa.-it and Asia. Any
one who served under Major General Edward M. Lewis
in the 30th division in France, will know that as the com
mander of the coast artillery and fifteen thousand sol
diers in Hawaii he will not be caught napping.
He means that the marines with the fleet shall re
main on board. If the navy can protect their successful
landing, that is not saying that all the honors are with
the navy, but that Hawaii is insufficiently protected
against a powerful foreign fleet.
i Anyway, weaknesses in offense and defense will be
shown up. Both army and navy will be on their toes,
straining every nerve as in real warfare.
Hawaii we must hoid. It is the key to the Pacific.
Lose it and our first line of defense becomes the Pacific
coast.
They have been at it again! The same kind of maud
lin, mouldy-minded slushy sentimentalists who made
heroes of Loe'o and Leopold have been making a hero of
Gerald Chapman. Women of a type are most frequently
victims of this mania. Anything "romantic," different
and degenerate appeals to them.
Chapman's beautiful hands, his immobile classic
face, his soft voice, his pale pleading eyes! And he is
so brave! And so on with the slush!
If Chapman is to be a hero then Sanford Brown, Jr.,
Post of Kansas City, as told in a recent number of the
Legion Weekly, should not have set Joseph D. Felty,
ex-mail clerk, up in business, but sought out for their at
tention the bandit who.-.,' bullet grazed Felly's spinal cord
and left him paralyzed from the hips down when he was

Flora Lee had insisted on this one
ftmong all the new-rich dwellings along
the liner Itnulevard. It had been
ottered for reasons that were disquiet
ing. II ltd it been a lonely wreck in
some gro e of w hNpering pines no
negro would have gone near it.
Familiarly it was known as H.cdoo
House, ("luster A. Mulligan, a sand
and prvl contractor, built it 11 h i
years before: the week it was finished
he was indicted for a fraud that sent
him to the penitentiary. Then it went
to a mysterious couple named (iage;
after Gage was found dead in his bath
his wife decided to sell. Adniah bought
it from Mrs. Wilbur Ketten, widow of
the corn syrup king; Ketten was killed
in a motor accident w hile making haste
with another man's wife.
Hut it suited Flora Lee. and that was
enough. Adman concluded, and felt a
pride of ownership. It w as like the obi
house in Inness Street, only it had the
6iiallow look whien imitations usually
wear. The Peake place had been of
Ftone. Some day, thought Adniah.
Flora Lee should have a sotider house,
the kind she'd been brought up to.
llut as things stood now he'd have to
look around a little to pay the quarterly
interest.
Presently he walked up the knoll, and
his favorite view of the Itiver reminded
linn of his duty. He ought to ask
Vnele Lafe and Aunt lirownie to have
dinner w ith them: yet he couldn't quite
fee Flora Lee sitting across tho table
from the assertive hu farmer and his
original little wife. Jlut why not?

his brain clearing a little from recent
dissipations. Jn the big dining-room

Sycamore Club camo stealing in to
spoil his day. And yet ho hadn't done
anything that he could remember not
anything to throw Flora Lee Into such
a state of mind. How he wished that
he could have a minute with her; but
that was out of the question. She
hated to be aroused before ten. And

"Anyhow, it's nice to be In with the

"The Sycamore Club?" she laughed
triumphantly. "Tey simply crawled

something was going to cost him money

gallantly that Commodore Holt, must

"At Dell s Landing. Tie's a stock

stress I'ncle Lafe's Importance he
added, "He's one of the Principality
directors, connected with tho Attcr

had lost interest.
He went thoughtfully out to his
car, realizing that he had just com
mitted himself to a largo endowment
and the purchase, of a boat that was
practically a yacht. Flo Leo had
wanted him to do these things, and she
had kissed him very sweetly, forgiving
his gaucherles.
