COMMENTS OF THE WEEK
A WEEK FOR KINDNESS
T,O ANIMALS—
PUBLIC NOTICES ESSENTIAL
TO GOOD GOVERNMENT—
THIS WEEK has been set aside to remind
us to be kind to animals. Certainly there is
no argument against the worth of such a
week to bring to mind the necessity for
humane actions by man toward all animals.
Man, with his superior intelligence, is cap
able of inflicting pain or showing kindness
ns he may desire and for that reason should
remember that his actions in respect to ani
mals must be governed to compensate accor
dingly.
However, just one week for the practice
of such kindness is not enough. That practice
should be daily and should be followed
throughout the year. Considering from the
standpoint of the animal kingdom itself, just
one week of kindness would leave 51 other
weeks of unpleasant experience. Considering
from the human standpoint, man could cer
tainly not be proud of himself were he to
practice kindness for only the one week. That,
practice should be followed for the 51 weeks
not set aside for kindness to animals.
THE IMPORTANCE of public notices for
the maintenance of good government is a
feature of government which should come to
wider recognition by voters in the election
of their public officials and in the demands
which they make on those officers.
Movements seem to have been started
to withdraw laws requiring the necessity of
making public notices essential for those who
have charge of public money. It has happened
in Oregon that each legislative session sees
the drafting of bills for the elimination or
reduction of effectiveness of present require
ments.
Should such a movement come to fruit
fulness, those who have the handling of public
money will be given much greater opportun
ity for the misuse of that money. In othei
words the possibility of graft will become
greater. Governmental expenses have, even
now, reached a proportion where taxes are op
pressive to many. Any opportunity for un
necessary expenditure of the taxpayer’s money
is an opportunity to be forbidden those whe
might do so. Public notices of expenditures
will in a great measure be a preventative.

SPRING TREE PLANTING
COULD BE USED HERE—
THE UNITED States forest service wil.
plant more than two million trees in Oregoi
and Washington this spring is the word o
an announcement made recently by the ser
vice. Of those trees, four-fifths are to be
planted in the western portion of the twe
states.
Considering for a moment that the north
western part of Oregon in which we live ha:
provided considerable employment to timbe;
workers and lumber workers during past
ars and that a good deal of the lumbei
products of this state have been procurer
from this region. Also consider that before
too long a time present sources of luinbei
are to be exhausted. A good deal of effor'.
has already been spent in attempting tt
compensate for the decreasing timber supply
Increasing efforts at compensation will pro
bably be attempted in the future.
Would it not show foresight on the par
of forestry officials to place in this part o
the state some of those trees?

Biliousness, Dizzy Spells,
Headaches, Tired Feeling
If you are one of the many folks that
feel« '‘punk” much of the time and sutler
from little aches and pains, biliousness,
headaches, fatigue, ••furry’ tongue, and
•ven foul breath, we want you to know that
very often these conditions are due to the
activity of harmful bacteria in the colon.
These bacteria attack food wattes and
often produce poisons that are absorbed by
the body and so cause many very distress-
In» eonditions. It is hard to kill these bac
teria in the colon. Powerful drugs that
might kill them may also hurt you if taken
internally.
„ ,

..
However, If you just "slow down the
activity of these harmful bacteria that
cause putrefaction, nature will be given a
chance to set things right again.
Heies a marvelously simple way of
combating intestinal putrefaction that a
proven to be effective in so many, many
cases Best of all, it doesn't call for the
use of harmful laxatives or drugs. Modem
science now ways that extract or concen
trate of GARLIC gives valuable help to th«
colon in its light against these poison
creating bacteria.
If you feel ’half dead" much of the time,
have minor aches and pains, headaches,
dizziness, cr foul breath, it might well be
that intestinal putrefaction Is at the bottom
of it. Why suffer? DO SOMETHING
ABOUT IT.
