With ftiany Oregonians planning hiking trips to avoid unnecessary driving, the touring department of the Oregon State Motor Associa tion suggests that the following advice become a part of the camp ing equipment of every family. Many persons are lost in the .'oods each year and with the Usé ol a little common sense they can find themselves” without too much un- pleasantness. A clear head will find itself. If everyone remembered this, there would be fewer persons lost it. the mountains and forests. Loss of mental control is more serious .han lack of food, water or clothing. The man who keeps his head has the best chance to come through in safety. The following helpful’ rules are worth remembering: 1. Stop, sit down, and try to figure out where you are. Use your head, not your legs. 2. If caught by night, fog, or a storm, stop at once and make camp in a sheltered spot. Build a fire in a safe place. Gather plenty of dry fuel. Don't wander about. Travel only downhill. Follow watercourses or ridges. 4. If injured, choose a cleared spot on a promontory and make a signal smoke. The Forest Service 'fire lookout or the observers n an airplane may see your smoke. 5. Don't yell, don’t run, don’t worry, and DON'T QUIT. 6.

PRODUCTION DOUBLED It is better to carry a clear head on your shoulders than a big pack cn your back; yet in going alone into the mountains it is well to go prepared for any emergency. A fishline and a few hooks, matches in a waterproof box, a compass, a little concentrated food, and a strong knife should always be carri ed. A gun may help as a signal, seldom for obtaining food. Above all, keep cool, and the chances are you will come out of the woods on your own feet. Three quickly repeated and even ly spaced sounds or signals are a standard distress call on land. Sig nals may be of any kind, audible or visible—calls, whistles, gunshots, flashes from searchlights or mir rors, smoke signals, waves of the arms, a piece of clothing or fire brand, or three small fires evenly spaced. The repetition in threes and the even spacing distinguishes the distress call. the first World War, wilt double Announcement» received here this FOR SALE—Kerosene incubator. week at the Vernonia post office the size of its current production 500 capacity.
