I OFFICIAL PAPER FOR CITY OF KLAMATH FALLS "Let ni hare faith that that faith let us to the end understand it." Abraham Sic.) Early Only Six Weeks To Xtnas Christmas is new about six weeks hence. Eight days into the near future Thanksgiving "will be celebrated. The holiday season- is upen us again, together with winter. The stores are bceming with smart things. In fit ting fashion, stronger than all others com bined, have these two holidays, climaxed by New Year's day, wrought themselves indelibly upon the American people. Thanksgiving and Christmas co-mingle more strongly as the years pass. Our grandmothers fashioned bountiful batches of mince meat for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. The plum pudding for Christ mas was made about the same time. Now adays, Klamath women, in keeping with the fashion of .the times, begin the Christmas shopping prior to Thanksgiving and immed- . iately thereafter do their mailing of festooned packages. Some of this is, no doubt, traceable to the early shopping campaigns of past seasons. There was a time when Christmas week was a mad rush. There are still the last min ute shoppers, and always will be. All of us can not have well-ordered, provident exist ences, and plan successfully for the weeks to come. Some even mourn the squandering of our last summer's wages, during -Christmas week. " Witness the hard-working, happy-go-lucky lumberjack. But are not the more fortunate ones those who carry the spirit of Christmas cheer on over Thanksgiving, and who do not wait for the swelling, irristible tide of the last week, when the heart of the hardest man melts in the utter warmth of joyous hearts? One Cause To Klamath Citizens Representative Loring M. Black, demo crat, of New York, has taken issue with Presi dent Coolidge on the latter 's apparent apathy in respect to the anthracite coal strike in the east. The representative believes that Presi dent Coolidge could call the operators and 'miners together, with a view to an amicable settlement of their difficulties. All of which may be true, but an achieve ment more far-reaching would be some way to learn just how those responsible can think up each year some new plausible cause for the annual coal troubles. For twenty years or more all anthracite mining troubles appeared in the fall of the year. Shut-downs, strikes and what-not are evident just when nipping sting of Jack Frost compels the consumer to sigh his sigh, dig a little deeper and wait for the operators, miners, or whoever is respon sible, to "spring a new one" next year. In this respect Klamath folk can be thank ful they may keep their families warm at a fairly reasonable cost. v Aii Independent Republican Nevxpaper c right makea might, and dare to dp our duty a t Lincoln.

"I'm very sorry, indeed!" re plied the theatre manager. "Sorry about what?" -"That the audlenco abandoned the chase."

The railroads had keen particularly liberal with the newspapers. There were very lew newspaper men that did not carry' t book of scrip and could board trains at will. Most of this Scrip was given publishers In lieu of money for advertising spare. Kveit news papers who fought the railroads had scrip. It Is a well-established fart, however, that some newspa pers were supported by the rail, road Interests..

" It was out and out blackmail, and it was against these that the railroads were forced to defend themselves by supporting more reasonable publishers.
