And, very likely, it will be put to them double—there are two petitions in.circulation now, each favoring the. separation but cach doing it tin a different way. Both petitions alJust Wonner-ne : I wonder‘ about editors And how on earth they keep their poise, Amid strange inadvertencies Which mar their days with strife and noise; Our editors are proper folk Who seldom rave and tear their hair, But still . wonder how they stand The everlasting wear and tear. I wonder if it. would be out of order to propose a Be Kind to Editors Week. A like suggestion has been offered upon several former occasions, but nothing has ever been done about it. Editors are always too busy and modest to _ start campaigns in hele own behalf and the reading public seems indifferent. Simetimes J think we do not fully appreciate our editors and the aruous tasks they pjerform in our service. Editors are usually patient men who seldom become cantankerous even under the most provocative circumstances. This is truly remarkable considering the sorrows they know; let’s inspect a few of the trials which beset their daily pathways; first there is the inadvertency at sight of which Miss Climber calls up to say in coldly accusative tones, “you omitted my name from the list of those who attended Mrs. ready have so many signatures as to make their appearence on the ballot virtuaily certain. Of ithe two plans, one is advanced by the Highway Pat-' rolmen’s association, the other by the automobile clubs of the! state. The patrolman would create a new body under control of . the attorney general, the director of finance, and the control. ler, all of whom would serve on a controlling board without . pay other than that received for their regular jobs. The automobile club plan would create a control body, . consisting of five men, each to receive an annual salary of . $6,000. It also would put the new department in control of . all construction and maintenance of state highway, taking this’ work away from the department of public works. The plan backed by the officers would confine the patrol strictly to ‘patro! work. ‘There are other differences, but these are the. major points. The officers themselves, from Chief E. Raymond Cato down, do not want the automobile club plan. They argue that the work of the patrol, just as the patrol, is important enough to warrant a separate organization; but rather than accept the automobile club plan, they would remain under their present status. The automobile club plan would seem to be merely a move tc create a bunch of new high-salaried jobs. Highway building and maintenance is now being handled by the department of public works; if the automobile clubs are not satisfied, let them go after that department. Why saddle the taxpayer with $30,000 more a year in executive salaries.—Sacramento Union.

We are becoming positively adventuresome lately! Sunday we drove up to Peavine Quarantine Station, 17 miles north of Reno to look up an y : old friend.

Again there are the typographical errors, those little journalistic pixies which sneak into the most carefully guarded colmuns and cause the outraged advertiser to stand aghast Last but not least, we have the disgruntled and unreastops the paper, often sans the formality of settling his accide with his own. This too is cause for vain regret. Now don’t you agree with me that editors deserve least one week of kindly consideration during every rolling year? Let's start it right now. Take out a paid subscription, send in an unsolicited ad, overlook the annoying typograhpical errors and in various other ways, give the editors a break. I wonder if Spain’s rebel chieftain has gone stark mad. We have been told that he is urging summer tourists to visit his unhappy land and promising those who accept the monstrous invitation guides and safe conduct through captyred territory. His visitors will be~ privileged to inspect desolated homes, ravaged cities, devastated farming regions, and the graves of slaughtered civilians; they may actually witness the bombardment of churches, schools and hospitals and view the shambles created in areas where helpless men, women and little children have been sacrificed to ghe red god of war. Not very nice entertainment for the pleasure seeking vacationist; but no doubt there are scores of morbid morons right here in our wn peace loving America who would take delight in accepting Franco's hospitality, just for the thrill of a bizarre adventure.
