Mena, Dec. 1.-The new treasury savings certificates which are to re- place the wartime securities, have been offered for sale in the Mena postotfice, this being one of the few cities in the nation where they were offered the first day. In the official announcement by the postmaster gen. eral it was said the new securities were to be offered the first day of the sale in only the best 75 post offices" and when Postmaster Allen received supply of the certificates Thursday he naturally concluded Mena's office was one of the best "a The new certificates are in de- nominations of $25, $10O and S1,OO0. The local office made an unusually good record in selling war time se- curities.

Lake to pursue our course eastward,
over a rocky table land among scat
tering juniper trees. We still observ-
ed the tlmbered butte as our land
mark. and travelled as directly toward
ii as the shape Of the country would
admit This butte is near the state
line, between Clear lake and Goose
lake. and probably distant fifty miles
from the lava ridge west OF Lost river,
from which we first observed it, and
supposing it to be about thirty miles
away. In pursuing our course we
passed through the hilly juniper
country between Iangel valley and
Clear lake without seeing either the
valley or lake. and at noon arrived at
the bed Of a stream where there was
but little water. Ths course OF the
stream was north or northwest, and

shore, approaching us. This soon
proved 70 be our lost friend. The Mo-
aoca had discovered him in the lava
fields, and probably supposing that
the whole party was about to assail
them from the rocks, they took to
their canos. He said that seeing the
Indians retreating, he concluded he
would leave the rocks and ride along
the iakcshore where the going was
good. We nooned in a beautiful mea
dow, containing about two sections,
near the head OF the lake.
After spending couple Of hours in
this splendid pasture, we re-packed
and started on our way towards the
tinbcred butte, but had not proceeded
more than a mile before we came sud
denly upon quite large stream (Lost
riverl coming into the lake. We found
this stream near the lake very deep.
with almost perpendicular hanks. SO
that we were compelled to turn north
ward, up the river. Before proceeding
very far we discovered an Indian
crouching under the bank, and sur
rounding him, made him come out. BY
signs, we indicated to him that we
wanted to cross the river. BY mark
ing on his legs and pointing up the
river, he gave us to understand that
there was a place above where We
could easily cross. Motoning TO him
to advance. he led the way up the riv-
er about a mile and pointed out
place where an immense rock crossed
the river. The sheet Of water running
over the rock was about Is inches
deep, while the principal part of the
river seemed to flow under. This was
The famous Stone Bridge on Lost riv-
er. SO often mentioned after this by
travellers. For many years the water
OF Tule Lake have been gradually ris-
ing. SO that now the beautiful meadow
on which we nooned on the day We
discovered the bridge is covered by
the lake. and the back water in Lost
river long ago made the river impas-
sable, is now probably ten feet deep
over the bridge.
After crossing the bridge we made
our pilot some presents. and all shak-
ing hands with him, left him standing
on the river bank. Pursuing our way
along the nOIlncEH ShoAG "a AAN AAA~
a few miles, we came TO beautiful
spring, near the base OF the mountain
on our left, and encamped for the
night. After using the alkali water Of
Lower klamath Lake the previous
night. the fresh, cold water of this
spring was a real luxury. There was
plenty OF dry wood and an abundance
of green grass for our animals. and we
enjoyed the camp exceedingly. Sitting
around our fire that evening. we dis
cussed the adventures of the past few
days in this new and strange land The
circumstances of the last day had been
particularly interesting. Our adven-
ture in the rocks: the retreat of the
whole Modoc tribe in fleet of thirty
or forty canoes across the lake from
Goff; the singularity Of the natural
bridge; the vast fields Of tule around
the lake, and the fact that the lake
was an independent body Of water
were subjects Of peculiar interest and
only intensified our desire to see more
OF this then wild land.

THE TIME THIEF

The real timethief is not Procrastination, notorious as that old
rascal is. The man who puts off until tomorrow what he should
have done today is more apt to defraud himself than others. He
drifts into a position where no one any longer expects anything from
him. He ceases to count, and 10 it doesn't matter greatly what he
does with his time.
The timethief who needs to be squelched is the person who steals
the time of other persons. He may do it by habituany failing to
keep al appointment until ten minutes or half an hour after the
designated time. If he is an executive, he may steal time by having
his stenographer call up people on the telephone for him and then
keeping them waiting until he is ready to speak; or he may do it
by always being Gin "a conference when anyone wants to see him.
Medical men who have attained high rank as specialists will
frequently keep patients waiting i'll outer offices for hours instead
OF meeting them at specified times; and it has come to be the custom
for younger specialists with ambitions to employ the same affecta-
ton.
Then there is the society woman who thinks her leadership is
somehow established or enhanced by a custom Of arriving late at
to sweep down the aisle when the congregation is already assembled
In the papers the other day was a statement that Senator Car
roll S. Page of Vermont will retire from the United States Senate
i'll 1928, when his present term expires. Senator Page, who is rs
years of age, is known to his fellow lawmakers as ''the human clock. -
He reaches the Senate chamber one minute in advance of the sched-
uRd hour of opening. If he ism there when the clock denotes that
time, the clock is wrong. Obviously it is a lifelong habit with the
senator to be punctual. He couldn't shake it off i'll his old age if he
wanted to, which he doesn't.
a man doesn't have to be quick i'll his motions, or in any sense
a human dynamo Of energy, in order to be on time. He merely
has to regard promptness as important and to plan ahead. He
thereby gains an envable reputation for himself, and has the inner
satisfaction of feeling that he neevr needlessly or heedlessly rbS
another Of that priceless raw material of life which we call Time

measure secured,

Next week there is afforded an opportunity to the public to
discuss a proposed traffic ordinance with the board of supervisors
and citizens who are dissatisfied with present traffic conditions,
whether they be auto owners or not should present their views to
the board or else sit back and offer no criticism to such a measure
as may be passed.
AS to the merits or dement's, the strength or the weakness of the
proposed ordinance this paper does not care to refer at this time
beyond saying that there appears some ground for criticism of
some of the phraseoOgy and some of the provisions and that some
OF the criticism offered has been termed "~quibbing' by friends of
the pending measure.
that can be and shall be enforced. The present ordinance is dis
regarded quite as much as it is observed. Proof of that assertion
can be found by any person who will take the pains to notice.

STATUS NOT THREATENED

From advices coming from former Governor Charles j. McCar-
thy, now representative of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce at
Washington, it appears that there has been no cause for fear that
Hawaii might lose its status as a Territory and become a mere in
suar possession through the transference of its affairs from the
sular possession" through the transference o fits affairs from the
department OF interior to the state department. So far as he has
been able to discover there was no foundation for the report reach
ing the Islands that a bill had been or was to be introduced into
congress to effect such a change.
Where and how the report started, Mr.. Mccarthy has been UNI
able to learn and he appears to have secured no information except
that nothing of the kind is contemplated and no news from him
on the subject could be more satisfactory.
AS things now stand, Hawaii is regarded too much in the light
of a possession" and too little as an integral part of the United
States. Were there several other territories as wa the case before
the admission of New Mexico and Arizona, Hawaii would probably
be grouped with them in various matters wherein benefits accrue to
the states but from which Hawaii is excluded either specifically or
through the use of the word Estates in the text of measures. The
fact that a strip Of ocean lies between the states and the territory
undoubtedly tends to aggravate the apparent discrimination against
Hawaii.
There is cause for watchfuness, even if no cause for alarm at
this time land the action of the Maui Chamber of Commerce in
protesting was a good sign of wakefuness. That the alarm which
reused such protest was a false one, does not affect the wisdom OF
alertness and action.
