She was about to wire Al, when he barges home a week ahead of time, and she almost cries for gratitude. (“Felt the same way myself,” says Al.) First few days, Martha enjoyed it—house neat and quiet, top back on the toothpaste, no morning mess from Alvin’s midnight snacks (Al’s partial to a bit of cheese and beer at bedtime). From where I sit, those differ­ ences of habit and opinion — whether they have to do with corn­ cob pipes, a glass of beer, or play­ ing the harmonica, seem mighty trivial when you’re separated.

Longview Victory Center Longview, Washington GRANGERS SHAPE THE PATTERN of OREGON’S DEVELOPMENT Livestock is big business in Oregon— and Grangers have a big stake in the industry. According to the bureau of agricultural economics, Washington, D. G, gross farm returns in Oregon from livestock and livestock products for the year 1945 totaled $136,431,000. This is real wealth, created by farmers, spent in the channels of Oregon trade, benefiting progressive citizens who, like Grangers, take pride in building a great commonwealth. Thirty thousand alert, forward-looking farmers are members of the Oregon State Grange. They are directed by these common motives—better living and working conditions; a very real desire to continue shaping the pattern of Oregon's development for the good of all.
