Support the Winner Even
If He Isn't Your Choice
ST. MARY’S CATHOLIC
A lot of people are going to be disappointed at the
results of the election earlier this week and a lot of
others are going to be pleased with the outcome. The
means by which officials are selected by choice of
the majority leaves the minority the disappointment
of being the loser, but that is democracy at work and
it surely is better than any other form of government
that has been put into practice.
However, now that the choice has been made by
secret ballot, those who selected the losing candidates
should have but one course—to give the winners of
the election their full support!

Clippings Aid Morale
A good deal has been written and said about
morale building of men and women in the armed
forces. This week a somewhat new angle on the
many ways of building morale developed as men
tioned by a note enclosed with a news article about
one local man who is fighting overseas.
The note was enclosed with the article which was
sent from the Italian theater of operations, the article
appearing elsewhere in this issue. We are taking the
liberty of printing a portion of the note here as it ex
plains itself quite well:
i
“Sometimes a clipping from a hometown paper—
like yours, for example— can mean as much as a
medal to the morale of fighting men overseas, wheth
er he’s a pilot, mechanic or a clerk. . . .if you should
use the enclosed release would you send us a clip
ping? We will see that it gets tacked on the man’s
squadron bulletin board where not only he, but the
rest of his unit will be able to appreciate it . . .

TILLAMOOK CHALLENGES
BIG TREE CLAIM
TILLAMOOK — In the Octo
ber 15 issue of the Sunday Ore
gon Journal, there appeared a
story about the world's largest
hemlock, measuring 18 feet and
six inch's in circumferance at
five feet from the ground. Well
that’s a lot of tree and it belongs
to Weyerhaeuser Co., who thinks
enough of their big tree to pre
serve not only it but all the
adjacent timber.
But O. K. Tittle, accompanied
by Bob Walker, timber cruiser
for many local timber compan
ies, found a hemlock tree in the
Beaver area that measures 19
feet, nine inches at five feet
from the ground on the upper
side of the tree.
RAINFALL TOTAL FOR
OCTOBER VERY LOW
SEASIDE — One of the driest
Octobers in ithe history of the
city came to an end with a
storm which brought 2.38 inches
of rain in three days. An addi
tional .61 inches fell on Novem
ber 1, making a total of 2.99 in
ches for the four-day storm.
Rainfall for the whole month
was five inches, with precipita
tion of more than .01 of an inch
showing only on eight days. For
the balance of the month the
weather was dry and warm.

Farm machinery manufactur

In support of the Government’s
stabilization program, John A.
Stephens, chairman of the Steel
Case Research Committee and
spokesman for the steel industry,
submitted to the NWLB figures
showing that weekly earnings of
steel workers have risen twice
as much as living costs. Point
ing oct that the steel industry
is standing with the government
“as the defenders of economic
stability,” Mr. Stephens warned
the proposed breach of the Lit
tle Steel formula would lead to
general wage increases and en
danger ability of employers to
maintain maximum employment
during reconversion. . .
OPA is working out stream
lined procedures for administer
ing the Price Control Act after
Germany's collapse. Richard Gil

forecasts relaxation or suspen

regulations 60 days after the
armistice. In fixing such ceilings
as are retained, aim will be to
use manufacturers 1942 prices as
a base, although industries wher'
costs have risen far above 1942
levels will get new ceilings. .
A bill to create a White Collar
Commission, with powers to fix

Skookum Potlatch . . .
“Tonight’s the night I cat my
rib-bustin’ fill of Venison a la
Clark,” I says to myself, sitting
here and trying to start my
weekly column chore; unable to
think of a thing but tonight’s
feed, and drooling
into my
typewriter.
I can hardly wait! I haven’t
wrapped my mouth around a
prime, juicy hunk of venison
since some years ago on the Au
Sable in Michigan. And this feed
is to be prepared and served by
Monsieur Harry Clark, who is
not only a peerless fire warden
but a chef who has never been
equaled and seldom surpassed in
my experience.
I am already
woozy with anticipation.
Sounds like a big affair, as
Harry puts it up in Ms invita
tion—an old time Puget Sound
skookum
potlatch,
with
the
sportsmen of Mason County pro
viding the provender and Chef
Clark the presiding genius of the
feast. Um-um, and a couple of
yums as well. Do I like my eats!
But it isn’t only an occasion
for a gang of two-legged timber
wolves to set a table and stow
away some thousands of calories
each. It is also to celebrate a
second season of successful co
operation between sportsmen, for
est land owners and operators,
and Fire Warden Clark and his
fellow protection men in the
district.
Hence the occasion is well
worth citing to other forest in
dustry communities
in
both
Washington and Oregon.
Hunting was born from logging.
Loggers and hunters ought to
get together in every way and at
every time possible, not only be
cause cooperation of this kind is
the most effective force against
enemy fire, but to honor the
oldest tradition of both hunting
and logging. Lt began with Paul
Bunyan.
Lugging, of course, came first.
There was, as you know, two
kinds of timber, broadly speak

WOLF DRESSED LIKE SHEEP
No, No—You must not mail
that letter today for it would
travel on Sunday and that must
not be. So ordered the small
city banker. Nor would he permit
daughter Josie to play a sacred
number on her violin in the
church. Such a worldly thing!
Far and near, the man made
a name for himself and the peo
ple trusted their money over to
him. Then one day, the bank ex
aminers found him to be crooked
and to the pen he went. Just
another wolf in sheep’s cloth
ing, was he.
The love of money was his
pet sin. What is yours? What
ever it may be, it roots from the
heart. for-Out of the heart come
evil thoughts, murders, adulter
ies. thefts, false witness, slander.
See Mt. 15:9. Tell me what your
heart is and I will tell you how
you look to God. for God looketh
on the heart. With the human
heart set as it is, no wonder that
Christ said-Ye must be born
again.
New life for you.

ing timber. The first- kind made
*
good logs. Theoecond kind was
mainly roots and boughs, with
each tree able, and always will
ing, to pull up its roots, belly
down on its boughs and then
creep. A creeping kind of tree
could work its boughs like a
centipede, but fast.
When Paul Bunyan logged into
the Great Lakes country he
found m ire creeping timber than
standing timber. Logging just
couldn’t go on. The creeping trees
were bold pests. The young ones
would even creep into the bunk
houses on cold nights and crawl
into bed with it he loggers, to
warm their roots. The biggest
ones would creep into Paul Bun
yan’s whiskers, into Hels Kel
son’s socks, and into the hair
of the Blue Ox. Babe was always
scratching to get rid of his trees.
Dr. Johnny Inkslinger invented
tree powder to help him out, but
the creeping trees only sneezed
at it.
TRe worst was, the creeping
timber got in the way every
where in the woods, holding up
the logging of the standing tim
ber.

above chart, showing how
the average American fared in
T HE
national income changes in the last
twelve months, is based on the
monthly consumers' study of Inves
tors Syndicate of Minneapolis.
The American public in August
had a “real income” of $1.00, or the
same as in August. 1943. This "real
income” is not a subtraction df
cash income and expenditures but
an average relative of these figures
designed to show how living costs
affect adjusted income dollars.
Cash Income of the American
public in August was $1.00 for
every $1 a yo«r earlier. The follow
ing changes per dollar were: wages
off 3 cents, salaries off one cent
on the $1.00; other income up one
cent on the dollar and investment
income at $1,07 was up seven cents.
Rents in August were unchanged
compared with a year ago. Clothing"
was up four cents. Food was un
changed. Miscellaneous items were
up one cent

SugAr, molasses, food proteins

You may lose pounds and have a

Eat meat, potatoes, gravy, butter.
The experience of Mrs. Wells may
or may not be different than . ours,
but why not try the Ayds Plan? Look
at these results.
In clinical tests conducted by
medical doctors more than 100
persons lost 14 to 15 pounds
average in a few weeks with
the AYDS Vitamin Candy

With this Ayds Plan you don't cut
out arty meals, starches, potatoes,

you enjoy delicious (vitamin forti

The Bunyan Scattergun . . .
Finally Paul Bunyan invented
what we’d call a shotgun now
adays, only it had forty-seven
barrels. And then he invented
hunting, with Babe as his hunt
ing ox. Babe would flush a flock
of creeping trees, and Paul
would rip loose with his scatter
gun. The loggers would be ready
to leap in and finish off every
creeping tree of the bunch that
had a creep left in it. After
seven seasons of that, logging
went on, with no more creeping
timber to worry about, for noth
ing but standing timber was left
Thus Paul
Buyan invented
hunting and the first hunting
gun just so he could log. He was
the great hunter of the woods as
well as the greatest logger of his
t me. Now, as then, hunters and
loggers need to work together,
in fighting fire, the enemy of
all friends of the forest.
