THE EXTRA COLUMN (By Frank Hall) Three cheers for the pen manufacturers. First they made a pen that would write while up in the air, then one that would write under water, and now they advertise one that will write through butter. If they would come up with one that will write, so the writing could be read fifteen minutes later, wouldn't it be wonderful. Beth Kroesen, the little girl who is assistant in public relations at Centralia school district has this note to editors on one of her releases this week: "If you miss a chance to shoot the bell on Thursday, July 24, etc." Talking about a new home for the school bell and the possibility of taking pictures of its transfer. What I thought Beth meant when she said shoot the bell was what you thought I thought. Radio station KMPC and its director of publicity spent a three cent stamp to inform us, and other newspaper editors of this valuable bit of news: "KMPC General Manager Bob Reynolds and his family are vacationing at Lake Tahoe."

Radio station KMPC and its director of publicity spent a three cent stamp to inform us, and other newspaper editors of this valuable bit of news: "KMPC General Manager Bob Reynolds and his family are vacationing at Lake Tahoe." Now how, by any stretch of your imagination, can that be considered vital news to you, me, or for the KMPC station? What I wish these people would do is go and come back from a vacation like you go and come from a bank when making a loan—quietly. Swiped from Hi-Call — "It is said that Abraham Lincoln once said to an argumentative deputation, 'How many legs would a sheep have if you called his tail a leg?'" The deputation answered promptly, "Five." "Wrong," said Lincoln, "it would have only four. Calling the tail a leg would not make it so." What a change has been made in clothing. Not only in styles but in names. Instead of pants, shirt, skirt or coat we now have such things advertised as capris, pedal pushers, Bermudas, Ivy leagues and what have you. In one adv. this week Grants is mentioning pedal pusher sets and English push mowers. Really hard to know what is hardware and what is wearable.

Prop. 4 State Harbor Bonds—approve. Prop. 6. Advertising State Bonds—oppose. Prop. 11. Issuance of Highway Bonds—oppose. Prop. 14. Compensation of County Officials—approve. Prop. 17.
