EvavaanaaBaaBOKBasaaaHsaBB PROFITABLE YEAR'S WORK SHOWN. f ' The annual meeting of the Roseburg Chamber of Com 5 ; merce last -evening brought to the attention Of those directly interested in its success' the great amount Of constructive 'work accomplished during the past year. The secretary's t- epott as read was conclusive evidence, that the present board V rof directors has carried out a program that brought &otUfturg and Dougias county well to the front ranks and J. "put them in a. sphere where they rightfully belong. There t- has been nothing spectacular about the work carried on. On the contrary the chamber has been conducted along business ' lines that invite the closest attention of the investor and home .builder." No wild or glaring statements have been is- Sued just a truthful story qf the possibilities and resources t. of the county has beeq broadcast Our . citizens who. are supporting the chamber, but who ore not fully acquainted witji. its activities, should read the secretary's repor published elsewhere in the News-Review, f That they might become more familiar with its work, what TTSs been accomplished for the community. A careful study : of what is going on within the commercial body would have a tendency to make lukewarm .supporters of the institution enthusiastic boosters, adding materially to its future success. ZS",t - The new board of directors chosen last evening are ail 'representative citizens who are willing'to give their service r to directing the organization during the coming year. It is i; jj a work that requires a lot of time and energy. It is no boy's I " job by any means and the membership can do nothing less !' than get squarely behind these men and assist them in every ; !! way possible to carry out a constructive year's work. Ui There has never been a time in the history of Roseburg f, that conditions generally were as good as they are Joday in : ?. the affairs of the chamber. The old board steps down leav V,", Ing a record they might well feci proud of and our citizens '! ?, can feel well assured that there will be nothing left undone by the new board of directors to keep this city and county well in the front ranks as one of the most progressive and Jast growira: sections of southern Oregon, and information will be disseminated in a way that no one will be misled as i4 the' true' possibilities and varied resources of this great county. , , jitif---.' jriia University- of Oregon at last has a football coach ' Vgifely contracted for the next five years.

THE GIANT. j Herr Sigmund Brictbart is no more, he's in his winding sheetsand ne'er again will people roar approval of his feats. The strongest maain all the world, he wore a string of bells, and hefty canhonballs he hurled, as you'd throw peanut 1 -afcellg. Oue day ha stood, a figure grand, 'gainst whom none r.--jmight prevail; and as he stood he scratched his hand upon a 2,;c-awty nail. It was the sketchiest of wounds, it scarcely made him swenr; and Sigmund raised two thousand pounds above him initio air. He held two stallions which came wild and plunging from their stalls; he played with anvils as a child might play with rubber balls. But in that scratch a little germ began to brew its dope; so small you couldn't see it Bquirra without a microscope. A little germ, all black and f tan, its foretop neatly curled, attacked this vast and mighty "t man, the strongest in the world. Great Sigmund's hand . swelled up apace, upon an evil hour, and boils broke out up J . on his face, and all his blood went sour. The doctors exer- cised their skill upon that Samson frame,' but there was jg naught' in drug or pill could queer that microbe's game. So "Sigmund crossed his brawny paws upon his bulging chest; ' ' the strongest man that ever was, ho came out second best. Oh, let us think of Sigmund's fule when we are prone to Q brag, when of our health or muscles great we start to chew JrTkhe rag. "The, little germs, too small to see, aro round us ,Mvry where ; they're in the vodka and the tea, they thicken -J the air. r BY BERT d.

PIMPLES ( Flmples are entirely unnecea-, every now and then, keeping on sary. They come because tne first ball an nour. rule of good health and good' looks Is noglected the rule being' thai the body must be given aa much food aa It can digest and dispose of without over working Itself, and no more. In tbo beginning they come be cause this first rule Is overlooked. It a constipated condition haa be comp chronic, pimples wUl come even when the amount of food la correct, for then the body la poison ing Itself. And after a long attack of them, they will continue to break out on the skin, even when the Internal condition haa been cured, because the ekln reinfects Itself. So you have two kinds of treatment to give yourself. The first, and immediate, thing to do Is to diet. You can begin that tbia very minute It you have pimpled. Drink two glasses of bot water with Bait in it If you bate the taste of heated water. This 1 helps flush out bowels and kidneys. Your next meal must be light and simple, little meat, no pastry or pudding, fruit and salads.

Cream the butter and su gar together, add eggs, milk, and flour with spices. Hake, in a low er crust of pastry.

Put the sweater Into this, squeuxe and press the suds I through It, and If the water be comes very dirty repeat this wash lng with fresh suds of the same temperature. Then rinse by pour ing off the sudds and adding clear lukewarm water. Throw away this first rinBe water and use a second, also lukewarm. Squeeze he garment as dry aa possible without ringing, and dry it by laying on a clean white cloth In a shady spot (out of doors It possible, but not in freezing tem perature). Pull and push the sweater into lis original shape and let it dry In tbia way. It la al ways safest to measure the gar. ment before washing, and then pull it to the same, measurements when you lay It on the cloth to dry. Mrs. A.

Through miik (and milk pro ducts) trom cattle lntected with tuberculosis. L At I told you yesterday there Is ona very. Important lactor In con tracting tuberculosis and other In fectious diseases, and that la a low. ered resistance. You know the factor that causa lowered resist-1 ance. They are prolonged over work. Insufficient sleep and rest, unsanitary - surroundings, occupa tions Involving the -inhalation of dust or other, irrlt stive particles, vicloua personal habits and dtsord-' ora of nutrition, especially under feeding. But we must not lose sight ot thla facL that even without any special lowering ot tha resistance, tuborculoais or auy other Infectious diseases may be contracted It the genua of these diseaaea are virul ent enough and are taken Into the body In large numbers. 'I Ue state ment that "germs are the etlect and not tho causa oi Infectious di seases" la pernicious, because It will make those suffering from and caring for lutecUoua diseases, care less. It la now thought that most caaaa ot tuberculosis ara contract ed during childhood. It the disease does not develop until adult life. It is believed by those who make a special study of tuberculosis that the germs gained access to the bo dy in childhood, but natuie walled them off so they' caused no trou ble until there waa some great low ering ot resistance, and then the germs were set free and caused the active disease. It Is found at au topsies that the majority uf lungs examined show there has been some slight- infection from tuber culosis at aome time during the lite. Sometimes infectious diseases of childhood, measles particularly, will- lower the resistance so that tu berculosis germs if they are pre sent, will become active. (The old idea that children, must have the infectious diseases and the sooner they hsve them, the better, is very harmful. And it is not true. Chil dren do not necessarily have to have the infections of childhood. And If they do contract them, the later rather than the sooner the better, because the resistance be comes higher aa the - child grows older. The reason adults do not have the measlea and the so-called diseases ot childhood so frequently Is because their resistance to them is so much higher.) Tuberculosis la both preventable and curablo.
