Editor Reveals a Secrei— Plays All | Day ir in Sun Suit

VALSETZ, Ore., Aug. 10 (U. P.)— Life is earnest, life is real in this little western Oregon lumbar town as seen through the eyes of Dorothy Anne Hobson, 10-year-old editor of the Valsetz Star. In Valsetz last week: Half the town burned down, one couple got married, one couple got divorced, three men got in a fight, two babies were born and two men got in jail. “When the fire raged in the business district,” chronicled Editor Dorothy, whose fame is nation-wide, “we packed up our book of knowledge again and Daddy's law hook and ‘The History of the Republican Party’ and ‘How to Be Happy Though Married,” waich is mother’s book.”

Dorothy reported that her assist-/

ant editor, Franklin Thomas, was “very heroic,” but she didn’t specify what Franklin did. Some time ago Franklin declared he was preparing to go out and fight Herr Hitler as soon as he recovered from chickenpox. ; The extensive

foreign coverage was" curtailed this month. “We play all day in our sun suits,” Dorothy €ditorialized. “Hitler seems very far away and not very interesting and we don’t care what the Roosevelts do.” (The motto of the Star is: “We believe in hemlock, fir, kirviness and Republicans.”)
