Pappy told him: “Well, sir—when I work, I work hard. When I set, I set loose. When I think, I go to sleep.” According to Doc Hollister, that formula isn’t far amiss. “Hard work,” says Doc, “never wore out anyone before his time, providing he knew how and when to relax.” when he gets home he takes it easy With a mellow glass of beer and chats with the missus until it’s time to go to bed. From where I sit, relaxing is a fine art—especially in these tense, fast-moving times. And there’s nothing like a temperate glass of beer—enjoyed with pleasant com pany—to restore that easy frame of mind that one needs after a hard day’s work. Doc himself works overtime, with his daytime patients at the office, and his evening calls.

Pea weevil are out and will be Jaying eggs on the pods as soon as pods are present. A thorough dusting of the pea vines with DDT dust every seven days will kill the adult weevil and prevent those “worms” in peas. Seedling carrots should be dus ted with DDT to reduce damage from carrot rust which causes “wormy” carrots. Potatoes are up in most gardens, and regular dusting every seven days with DDT dust is advised to prevent the so-called ‘wireworm’ damage to the tubes. The 11-spotted cucumber bee tle will be attacking newly sprout ed beans, and here again DDT dust will prevent damage. Gardeners using DDT dust may use either a 3 per cent or 5 per cent dust, but the 5 per cent dust will give the best results with the type of dusting equipment most home gardners use. Flower gardners should remove h-ads of lilacs and rhododendrons when blooming ends. Bulbs should not be dug when leaves start turn ing yellow. Leave bulbs in ground until leaves have completely died down. • • Tardy Renewals May Take Exam Tardy drivers may soon find themselves required to take an original examination instead of s:mply renewing their old license as Oregon’s new system of driver’s license renewal enters its second year of operation, Secretary of State Earl T. Newbry warns. Under the law, license holders who have skipped a complete re newal period must take a new examination in order to obtain a permit. Newbry explained this provision will affect a few drivers ■who have neglected to renew an old license which legally expired last year. The secretary pointed out that old licenses numbered from 5R- 396,001 to 5R429.000 will be invalid after June 30. All lower numbers have already expired, and renew als should be obtained immediately to avoid the necessity of re-exami nation, he said. • Read and use Eagle want ads They get R—E—S—U—L—T—S Teacher of Thoroughly experienced in popular, symphonic and radio playing.

Forty Oregon high schools of fered the courses, one semester in length and including behind-the wheel training to supplement classroom instruction. Portland schools trained 413 of the estimated 1800 students throughout the state who completed the work. The problem of securing trained teachers and of integrating the courses into already crowded school schedules was hampering further expansion of the program.
