length as whole.

Of sufficient height for admitting light

Houses II feet wide should have
windows that are at least six feet
high to the top, and wider houses in
proportion.
At least one-third of the front of a
poultry house should be open. without
glass, and provided with a muslin cur

THE WAITING GAME

Congress is supposed to be in ses-
sion, but judging from the dis
patches from Washington little is
being accomplished by that body at
present. Possibly they have not yet
settled down to real business, their
equilibrium having been disturbed
by the unprecedented feat Of the
president leaving the United States
for several weeks.
The congressman seem to be wait
ing for something; in fact the whole
world seems to be waiting. Pos
sibly no one can definitely describe
that something" but it might be
the great peace conference, and it
probably is. Or it might be on the
part of the people, a desire to wait
and see what congress is going to
especially with the railroads
and other public utilities. Yet that
waiting" is apparent-broadcast
over the country as we'll as at Wash
ington.
The United States will have a
delegation, composed Of Colonel
House, Henry White, General Bliss
and Secretary lansing, with Wood
row Wilson thrown in for good mea-
sure and who will probably act as
plenipotentiary extraordinary. The
people do not know-not even con-
gress knows-what the plans of this
delegation are, as the president has
given no hint to our representatives
at Washington, or to the people al
large, what his aims are aside from
stating that it was his purpose to see
that Prussian militarism is crushed
Just what Wilson's freedom Oh
the seas" mean is not generally un.
derstood, and some fear that the
president and Lloyd George are like
ly to flock horns" over that point
Spencer Churchill has made Eng
lands stand plain in regard to thu
navy proposition, but the people d.
not know what the president is go
ing to demand for the United States
In the meantime the eyes of tn,
world will be turned toward Paris
with an occasional side-glance a

<+<<$*% %<+< +$*+ +$%+%< \
With the return of the soldiers
from overseas this community must
consider how best to induce her boys
to remain here and become part OF
her business and social life.
The boys will be different indi-
viduals when they return from the
war. They have become men in
every sense of the world, ana we
must deal with them on that basis.
They have seen the world; seen the
progress being made; been a part
of great machine, we'll oiled and
running smoothly; and thy will not
be content to go a step backward
when discharged, on the other hand
they will want to become part and
parcel Of live progressive communi-
ties. They will not Sbe content to
remain ldle OF QrlIt.
Other localities will have many
inducements to offer the boys and
we must so present the opportuni-
ties of Josephine county that the
boys will give consideration to them
and decide to cast their lot with US.
These soldiers, thoroughly trained
in discipline and loyalty to the gov
eminent, will make the finest kind
of citizens, and Grants Pass will do
well to induce as many Of them to
take up their life work here as pos
sfble.
To present our opportunities pro-
perly we must demonstrate them for
the benefit of the boys. We must
start the development of our lands,
our mines, our timber, our water
power and our other natural re-
sources, and encourage the soldiers
to Join US and take up the work and
carry it forward to completion.
To do this will impose duty, as
duty it is, on every citizen and every
Organization, but 1t is a duty that
each OF us should cheerfully perform
as it means long stride toward a
more progressive community and a
higher standard of citizenship.
