PATERSON POSTOFFICE HAS
SOLD $276O OF WAR STAMPS
Little Columbia River Village Has q
Record that Will be Mighty
Hard to Beat

Not only does the Paterson
postoffice hold the record for War
Savings stamp sales in this
county, but it is doubtful if
there is another Office in the
country of like size that can
touch it's record.
According to the Oregonian,
the postoffice at Hood River is
making a good record in stamp
sales, the postmaster having re-
ported sales amounting to $1,000
at the close of business January
5. Figured on a ratio of the
number of patrons, Paterson to
duplicate Hood Rivers record
would have to show total sales of
about six bits. The little river
postoffice, however, is slightly
over this figure. At the close of
business January z, Postmaster
Fisher had sold a total of $2760
in stamps and says he could
have sold 500 worth more had
he been able to get the stamps.

Chest Expansion. q

Men and women can increase their
lung power-chest expansion it can be
called technically-by five minutes ex-
ercise morning and night. Stand IN
straight on the balls Of the feet, head
thrown back, and inhale deeply, first
initiating the lower part Of the lungs,
and then the upper. Leave the air out
OF the lungs slowly, letting the chest
sink first. Do this fifteen times morn
ing and night, and the average person
will be immune from colds and ca
tarrhs.

WAR UPON INSECTS.
A Conflict That Sooner or Later the
World Must Face.

A Conflict That Sooner or Later the
World Must Face.
A writer in an English journal has
suggested that the next great war will
be between man and the insect world.
This war would be waged not only on
insects that actually attack man him.
self, but also on all those winged or
creeping things that are his enemies in
less direct ways-those species that, to
use the writer's phrase, "exist at the
expense Of human progress and happi-
ness"
We all shudder with horror at the
thought Of q scorpion or Of centipede,
although few OF US ever see one Of
them, but we do not shudder enough at
the thought Of the untold millions OF
disgusting things that we are putting
up with all the time
Perhaps 1t Is unfortunate for us that
manly of these harmful and even death
dealing insects are very small. II they
were as large as they are bad we
should soon rid ourselves Of them.
When we see the housefy or the mos
quito hugely magnified we realize at
once that, compared with them struc-
turally, the tiger is charming and
beautiful thing, but we go away and
forget the magnified picture and sub
NIT to the original of 1t.
The determination Of these pests Is
duty that the world faces, righteous
crusade in which we should all join.
The scientists will tell us the best way
to wage the fight, but scientific meth
DDS must be REINFORCED by public
opinion that will cease to tolerate un-
clean dwellings, stagnant pools, uncOv-
cred tanks, accumulations Of exposed
filth and everything else that invites
vermin and menaces human beings.

TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS.
First Find the Kind of Work to Which
You Are Best Suited.

You Are Best Suited.
A friend Of mine who is as good q
man in his line as anybody in the
United States stood i'm my office few
days ago and said surprising thing.
had been complimenting him on one
of his latest achievements. His face
lighted up as he remarked: "Of course
l got lot of money for that job; but,
between you and me. I'd do these
things for nothing If / couldn't get
anybody to pay me for them. I'd rath-
er do them than eat. It's a shame to
take the money. Don't give me away,
or they'll be asking me to cut down
my price. and III be doing it."
That sounds like bunk. But wait q
! minute. Think clear through the prop
osition. This man will never be cut
ting down his price at all. 1t is ex-
actly the other way around with him,
and he knows 1t. The truth is that his
income goes on rising, because those
he works for keep bidding for his serv-
ices. What he meant was that he has
found the secret Of progress and en-
joyment-namely, field Of activity to
which he is suited and In which he Is
SO interested and happy that he works
as IL he were playing. No wonder he
performs miracles!
Naturally he is glad to have the
large sums OF money he earns. They
are sort Of crude measurement Of his
efficiency. They show in a rough way
how other people estimate his value.
But the main point Is that he has found
his niche and that he concentrates on
his job for days and weeks at stretch.
All his thought is concerned with what
he can put into his work, not what he
can get out of It. Lucky man!
The moral is simply this: Don't fake
for years and years an interest In
something that bores you. Don't pre-
tend all your life. for the sake Of fam
cied appearances, to enjoy some form
of work that you really dislike. OF
course you should give yourself fair
trial at Job before throwing 1t up,
because often a man learns to like
something that he didn't like when he
set out But you know what mean
don't keep at it indefinitely. Quit and
try something else. Cut and run be-
fore it is too late.
The acid test to apply to your job Is
this: II you had money enough to live
on would you stay at 1t without pay?
II you don't love 1t that much hunt for
another-that is. II you are young and
froo from tho responsibilities and oh
lirnfions which govern older men. The

sidious. 1t is dangerous. It is deadly.
Worry saps the vitality. 1t makes you
old. 1t brings wrinkles. 1t brings gray

You worry at the possibility Of

suggesting unemployment to yourself.
Suggestions frequently become realiza-
lions. II you suit your job and your
job suits you why worry? Why think
about 1t? Do your best in the position
you occupy. Strive to do better, but
don't worry because you appear to
make no progress. All in coed time.
Nothing ever came by worry.

You may be worrying over the health

you to worry yourself i'll also? Is there
reason or sense in it? Worry brings
