TROUBLE ON THE HILL .. Every New Year’s Day I make a list of good resolutions which are supposed to add much to my general well being and domestic tranquility. This year I made a set of good resolutions of which I was justly proud and I firmly intend to keep ’em—at least some of them. For instance, I have resolved to cut my after noon siesta from two hours to one and a half hours. That way I save three hours each week, nearly two whole days each month. Much can be accomplish ed in two days if profitably em ployed. The only question is, when and how to cash in on them. , Then I have .resolved to keep the ax sharpened so Ma can split the wood without complaining about the ax being dull as so often has been the case in- the past. Then I have resolved to guard the decanter of O. B. Joy ful, that I keep on hand for medical purposes and as an anti dote for snake bite, more care fully and parsimoniously. I shall keep a supply of postage stamps on hand; heretofore, whenever Ma writes a letter, I have to go down town and get a stamp to mail it. I shall not go to sleep i Pen Today!

There have been too many of them winding up in jail lately. All these were compiled after due deliberation and with serious intent. I was very well satisfied with the result, so much so that I showed them to Ma. That is where I mad? my mistake. She came up with a list that did not coincide with mine at a'l; she has resolved that my afterdin ner nap is to be eliminated en tirely and the time, thus saved, ■mployed in splitting and carry ing in the wood. Also the O. B. decanter is to be done away with. I protested loud and long over this last, I declared it was an infringement on my personal rights. I even pointed out that i snake bits can be just as poisonous in winter as in dig days. No use. No more Kicka- poo Joy Juice, Ma is the argu- fyingest woman I ever knew. I have never yet won out in an argument with her. Once or twice it has been close but I can’t remember ever having won a clearcut victory; there ain’t no justice. Oh well, what's the use when there ain’t any?

Amazingly, be cause so many other institutions have come under public suspi cion, including the institution of government itself. The trade association, how ever, confers a stamp of distinc tion on its individual member in the public mind. jThe trade as sociation stands for. business in tegrity, business progress and the public w ■ fare, in the eyes of the vast majority of the people. It is the public face, voice and chai act er of its business group, serving non members as well as its supporters. Trade associations, and their name is legion, have well earned this standing with the American people. With few exceptions, their representatives in the na tional and state capitals, have made a clean record of good deeds well performed. Leaders in government depend on them for information and help outside poetics.

Ball Pens 98c The Day's Work The main job of the average American trade association is of coursa not governmental rela tions, nor is it labor relations. Sometimes they are included, one or the other or both, but in any case there are trade relations, as with consumers, retailers and jobbers and their organizations. There are traffic relations, and here aeain the work goes on with associations in the traffic field. There are public relations, which have to do with education of the public on the facts of business life. There are legal relations, and so on. The word “relations” is em phasized because it covers the general all-over job of the usual trade association, which does not engage in business itself but ranks as a non-profit service or ganization. The West Coast Lumbermen’s Association, for example, cooper ates through its Trade Extension Department with the National Retail Lumbermen's Association and the regional retail lumber trade groups of America. Through its Traffic Department the As sociation works with the railroad and steamship associations. It cooperates with an endless list of forestry associations, both p.iblir THURSDAY, L VERNONIA, ORE. complexity of it. Therefore, the trade a. is of first importance in t. dem American scene. It re. sents a specific element of th nation, interprets it, and relates it to the other business elements, sets up linqj of communication for its members, and keeps them humming. This is “free private enterpris“" personified. This is our way of life, the one that cannot be mistaken for or confused with any other. and private. There are many other specialized activities, all essential to the whole industry in doing its part in the American system. This is America As life goes on today, American business finds the trade associa tions an indispensable institution. America is a complex of inter related industries and business concerns and corporations. No president, no congressman, no editor, nobody at all can possibly see the whole except in confusion before the wonderful and awful s.
