LOOK THESE THINGS
SQUARELY IN THE FACE
HERE are certain phases
Iffy ' of the commission char
ter subject that should
be looked squarely in the face
before a move is taken to sub
mit such a charter to the
voters;
First, will the submission, of
such a charter produce a town
fight, not only over the commis
sion plan but over other issues
that give promise of becoming
involved?
Second, would the adoption
of the commission plan at this
time, 'bring Pendleton benefits
commensurate with the costs?
Would it be possible at this
time with so many trained men
gone, to secure for city mana
ger the type of man wanted
and at a salary the people
would be willing to pay?
It is evident from comments
action is taken to submit a com
mission charter that those in
terested in the move make a
very thoughtful and unpreju
diced study of the situation.
NO TIME FOR CARELESSNESS
tf HE appeal of the forestry
Ui fire wardens for unusual
precautions on the part
of all people in the mountains
this year is timely. There is so
much other work for all hands
to do this year that every pre
ventable forest fire should be
prevented. The warning about
cigarette stubs is a practical
one because the cigarette stub
as a fire menace is a reality,
not a joke. A cigarette will
smoulder for a long time and if
carelessly thrown down is cap
able, little as it may be, of
starting a big forest fire. This
is a year to take no chances, it
is time for every loyal citizen
to be especially on guard. For
those who may start fires mali
ciously an appropriate punish
ment would be to have them sit
in the blaze.
THIS IS FUEL WEEK
AW
HE- "Buy Your Fuel Early
Week" has just been pro
claimed by Governor
Withvcombe of Oregon, for
June 3-8. During the week,
all civic and business organiza
tions and women's clubs are be-
ine urged to call upon their
various members and the pub
lic in general to order fuel for
next winter.
There is nothing of a "hur
rah" nature in the drive for
fuel orders, according to Fuel
Administrator Holmes of Ore
gon; "It is a matter to be look
ed at seriously," he said today.
"Oregon faces a fuel shortage
this winter, and we are doing
everything possible to warn the
people so none will suffer from
heatless days when cold wea
ther sets in. I urge all people
to order their fuel now. This

FROM THE PEOPLE
WARMSfl TO FXI-lPSE OBSKRV-KltS.
PRXII,ETOX. June G. To the
Editor of the East Oregonian Look
Ing forward to the total eclipse of
the sun next Saturday, June 8. a nation-wide
effort is being made to
warn people generally and school
children particularly against the se
rious effects likely to follow viewing
an eclipse with unprotected eyes. Di
rect sunlight has a destructive ef
fect on the retina, due to the chemical
action of the ultra-violet rays In the
spectrum. Blondes and individuals
with light colored irides are affected
more than Individuals with more
plgmant In their skin and ocular tis
sues. The action of the sunlight
causes a condition known as solar
glare, or solar blindness, or eclipse
blindness. This blindness may last
from a few days to a few months, or
may even be.pemanent. As there Is
practically- no treatment that avails
when one Is stricken, it behoovesi us
to sound warning against the danger
of looking at the sun at any time,
whether In eclipse or not. with naked
or only partially protected eyes.
Ordinarily tinted glasses do not fur
nlA sufficient protection. It requires
very deeply colored glass, or better
still, a piece of smoked glass. The
latter Is easily obtained where there
is a match and- a broken window
pane. The very best protection Is af
forded by a piece of developed photo
graphic film. The part of a rathe
dense negative that represents the
sky will serve; better still, a film that
has been especially exposed. A card
with a pin hole can be used, provided
the pin hole is not over one-half a
millimeter In diameter, but even this
is Inferior to the photographic film.
After the eclipse of April. . 1912.
many thousands of cases, of solar
blindness were reported In Europe
alone, and It Is hoped that by a cam
paign of -education the occurrence .of
similar cases this year may be pre
vented. ROYAL M- SAWTBLLE.

Make Known
What you tell about your store in today's adver
tising is what the readers of this newspaper KNOW
about your store as it is NOW. What you made
known a week or a month ago was the store's story
of a week or a month agonow history. w
All of the advertising of the past has served, ac
cording to it's adequacy and its fruitage is seen in
the gootf-will enjoyed by your store now. But past ad
vertising does not MAKE KNOWN the offerings
NOW READY for your customers.
People do not feel fully informed about the
events of the war unless they have read the LATEST
NEWS of the war. They may know what HAS
HAPPENED but they want to know WHAT IS
HAPPENING NOW.
The same principal applies to store advertising!
The East Oregonian printed 2820 copies of yesterday s
Daily edition they were read by about 10,000 people.
Did you tell these thousands anything about YOUR
business? They want to know, why not tell them?
