Hallowe'en Cooperation Noted
Hallowe’en has passed an­
other time and again the
children are to be compli­
mented for realizing that
it is practically impossible
to treat them during this
time of war with its re­
sulting restrictions. As has
been the custom in past
years, treats of candy, gum
or some other article pleas­
ing to children was the in­
ducement not to play a
trick, but last year, war­
time restrictions made it
difficult to obtain treats
and this year that situation
was even more pronounced.
The idea of trick or
treating itself, however, is
alright during normal times
Ifor it is a bit of fun to see
small faces, masked, come
to the door, knock, and
quote in a high-pitched
voice, “trick or treat."
Yes, the idea was alright
then as a note of amuse­
ment and as a substitute
for tricks. In times to come
perhaps the practice can be
revived again.
An increase of about 9 per
cent in the nation’s soap supply
without using more fats and
oil, is expected under adjust­
ed soap formulas recently pre­
scribed by the war food admin­
istration. The formulas call for
a larger use of domestic non­
fat materials, principally rosin,
as a substitute for fats.
BUY HIGHER ANALYSIS

Farmers purchasing mixed
fertilizer can save money and
at the same time contribute
substantially to the war effort

Paper Drive Not Likely
Several inquiries have
been heard here during the
past week or so as to when
a paper drive for Vernonia
was going to begin.
A paper drive was held
here a year or so ago when
a salvage committee was
set up for Vernonia the
same as was done in other
communities and the Boy
Scouts here collected a
large amount of waste pap­
er, the intent then being
to turn it over as an aid in
relieving the shortage of
paper at that time.
After the collection was
made, word was received
that authorities had no
need for it. Temporarily,
the collection was stored in
the old post office building
but word from the owner
of the building made neces­
sary the removal otf the
paper and there was only
one place to which that re­
moval could be made—the

MEDFORD—Preparing farm

in a way to make it last longer
and do better work next year
is a task that may well be done
by Oregon 4-H club members,
according to Clyde Walker, ex­
tension agricultural engineer at
O.S.C., in a talk over KOAC re­
cently in which he told them
just what to do and how to do
it.

PETERMAN CO. PURCHASES
STONE LOG HOLDINGS
TILLAMOOK—Charley Stone
who has been carrying on log­
ging operation on the Trask
river, sold his interest to the
Peterman company of Tacoma,
Wash., who last year purchased
the Tillamook Hammond mill­
site at Garibaldi.
The sale, which was closed
a week ago Saturday consists
of approximately 60,000,000
feet of timber and all logging
equipment with the exception
of trucks which Mr. Stone has
rented to the new owners.
FOUR MEN LOST
IN SWIFT RIVER
PRINEVILLE — Bodies of
four soldiers, lost in the swift
Deschutes river during maneu­
vers a week ago Sunday near
Eagle rock, were still being
sought in the river last Friday
according to word from Bend.
Sunday’s tragedy occurred
while “red” and “blue” armies
were engaged in the seventh
maneuver battle in central Ore­
gon during the current maneuv­
ers. Captain Dwight Pierce,
commanding officer of the
Prineville infantry company of
the Oregon state guard, was
one of the observing officers
during the maneuvers, but was
not present when the soldiers
were lost while attempting to
cross the swift river under bot­
tle conditions.
POSTAL RECEIPTS SHOW
16 PER CENT RISE
FOREST GROVE — Postal
receipts for the quarter ending
Septembed 30 at the Forest
Grove post office showed a 16
per cent rise over those of a
year ago, according to a report
compiled iast week.
Receipts for the 1943 quart­
er showed a total of 07272,
while the total for the same
period a year ago showed $6,-
257.48 as the total. This was a
gain of $1,014.
Disagreeable Weather
Winter weather is often times disagree­
able and that means the meals you prepare
must be the kind that “stick to your ribs’’
and leave that satisfying feeling. Shop at
Sam’s for just the right food to prepare tnese

SOME CHRISTMAS GIFTS
STILL CAN BE SENT
Christmas packages for sol­
diers overseas which have been
returned to the sender because
of an improper address may
still be mailed, according to
the war department. The origin­
al wrapper, bearing the en­
dorsement, “Return to sender,
insufficient address,” must be
submitted with the correctly ad­
dressed package to prove that
it originally was mailed before
the October 15 deadline. Chris-
mas packages also may be mail­
ed to soldiers going overseas
between now and Christmas.
When the sender presents his
package to the post office for
mailing he must bring the
change of address for contain­
ing the APO address to which
the package is being sent.
PINE BOX FOR YOU
Some day you will be cold
clay in a pine box. And what
will the preacher be thinking as
he rises to spe k those last
words over that cold clay? Will
he recall that in life, as you
passed on the street, your face
gave out a touch of God’s own
light?
Such a thing might be.
Go back to the day when
Christ made a blind man to see.
Christ let the light into those
darkened eyes. He gave sight
to the man and said—“I am the
light of the world.” So He is.
He gives the inner light to His
people, the saved. Inner light,
that shines from the soul and
lights the face.
Light for Every Man
Years later, John the Belov­
ed Disciple, speaks of Christ as
Light. Said John, “The Light
shined in the darkness and the
darkness never over powered it.
That was the True Light that
lighteth every man that com­
eth into the world.” Red men,
yellow man, brown,
black,
white men, all who come to God
by Christ, have the Light, walk
in the Light and send forth the
Light.
So what? When you are cold
clay in a pine box with flow­
ers all about, where will your
eternal spirit be? Will you be
out in the dark with the weep­
ing and the wailing; away in
the shades of endless night?
Or will you be in the land of
pure delight where saints im­
mortal dwell?
Settle It Now
Tell God that you take your
stand on the Bible which de­
clares that Christ died for your
sins; that His blood washed
away the guilt of all the sins
of your life time.
Next—step ahead in your
Christian duty. Be much in
your Bible; go forward on your
knees and quit trying to make
the grade by human strength.
Turn all the worry and sin­
ful habits over to Christ. Yield
over to Him all your abilities
and the days of your life jour­
ney. Only so can you make it
by Power From On High.
