Newspaper Page TextM TTJKSDAY, jAJr. is, 1949 THE EAGLE, VERNONIA, OREGON A PLEA FOR THE DOGHOUSE “Yep,” said the old man who lives up on the hill, the handiest thine to have around the place is • good doghouse. I know that most newly married men are con vinced that there never will be any need for a doghouse, that their married life is going to be ‘differ Don't fool yourself. Sooner ar later the need for a doghouse will come and the need will be forthright, right now, and he, who has not been foresighted enough to prepare for such an eventuality, is sure out of luck. He will either have to stand around cut in the weather or listen to a narration ef his misdoings by an irate spouse. And he dassent talk back. If he hasn’t already found out the hard way I want to tell him right now that so far, none has ever won an argument with his wife. Even if he did, he would be farther in the doghouse than be ent’. fore. I urge all those who are con templating matrimony to see to it that the place where they plan PAINTING Interior — Exterior FLOOR SANDING COLOR MATCHING ALI, WORK GUARANTEED ON CONTRACT BASIS Charles Seeberger 856 Rose Avenue Acetylene and Electric WELDING Portable Welder to Go Anywhere Telephone 453 Rose and Columbia Rose Avenue Welding Shop Russell Junken to live has an adequate doghouse or at least, some place that can be converted into one. Besides being a sanctuary when one is in disfavor in the home, it can be a ‘haven of rest to turn to when it is too hot to hoe in the garden in summer or when the mother-in-law comes to visit. But all mother-in- laws are not as the joke books or would be humorists make us believe; there are many who are wise and understanding and they more than make up for the bung ling interference of those who try to run the domestic household of their daughters as well as their own. But you never can tell; why, even Ma went home to mother once, but she didn’t stay long. I never did find out what happened. I would givp a pretty to know but I dassent ask. All I know is that she cooked up the best supper that night that I ever ate. While I must admit that I do not have to use my doghouse so very often of late, still it is mighty comforting to know it is there. Norblad Appointed to Committee Position Low Cold Freezes Pipes Representative Walter Norblad (R-Ore) has been appointed a member of the powerful house com mittee on committees. This group determines the Republican mem bership of all house committees and is currently meeting to read just previous committee assign ments changed by the G.O.P. loss of control of the house and to make appointments involving the newly-elected members. • The National Housing agency has tested several types of struc tural concrete which use as much as 90 percent of wood or vegetable fibers from farm and forest wastes.
