BOOST FOR NORTH HERE in Douglas county, about 85 miles from Roseburg, is a marvelous lake and summer playground, Diamond lake. The lake has plenty of fine fish, is excellent for bath ing and the speed boat fans can "let her out" to their heart's content. Rube Long, a well-known eastern Oregon horse man, has a string of forty saddle horses and plenty of pack stock and competent guides to take parties on mountain climbing trips into the forest. There is a fine lodge at the lake with a maximum capacity of 200 guests. This descrip tion is given for the purpose of emphasizing the fact that while this great summer playground is actually closer to Roscburg than to any other city of comparable size. Rose burg people who would drive to Diamond lake are com pelled to drive further, about 200 miles, than almost any other city in Oregon except those in the far eastern part of the state and those near Portland. Jledford, Grants Pass, Eugene, Bend, Klamath Falls are all at a greater distance from Diamond lake than Roscburg yet citizens in those towns have a shorter drive to Diamond lake than we have. If it were necessary to construct 85 miles of road to overcome our d'sadvantage in distance in reaching Diamond lake the matter might be debatable but the fact is that all of the 85 miles except a short 22 miles is already built; In other words Douglas county is denied the use of 63 miles of rood upon wnich it has already spent a large amount of t.n, oo i. v...:u u..r 4-i.A nnn and western ends of the road meet. livery Douglas county citizen will be benefited by the completion of this road and should boost for it." o i The California State Fair is placing exhibits from all PaCific Northwest states and has invited Oregon to send art'exhibit. Our state fair board, has agreed and offered to pay one-half of the expense of this exhibit and has ap pealed to the Oregon State Chamber of Cotnmerce to pay the balance of the expense. Since a very high percentage of our tourists and new settlors come here either from Cali fornia or through that stale, an exhibit at the Califor nia fair has sound publicity value. It is 'to be hoped that the state chamber will agree to pay its half. o A news item in today's News-Review tells of Major Wotts excellent fishing success on the North Umpqua river. The major has repeatedly expressed himself as be ing thrilled and pleased with Vali'ey. POEM FOR THE DAY By LOUIS ALBERT BANKS A HERO OF PEACE Thin Interesting news siory came rrom Washington, 1).

A tllsciiNsion has arisen as to, the proper manner nf mtv inc rolls at the dinner table. My rriend says wiup a mil in a nap km and place on bread plate hIoiu fdde of each tmtividmtl plate, whether the rolls are hoi nr told think thai they should he plaeed in the napkin only if ihey were nerved hot. 2. Is It also proper to serve a quantity of ioIIh on a tray in lite center of the table? A. K. ROLLS noadajM ure never served rolled in a napkin. This hoi-t of Merviro went nut wttli the individual ve-etahle dth lhat used to sit next to the dinner plate. And hot rolls especially would not be nerved in a napkin, since they would soil the napkin. The rolls an passed by the ma d. if there U service, and, if not. should be placed on the table, for passinc to the quests. 2. If there is no setviee. je imt iUt not place the rolls in the eenter of the table. Place them near one nf the ends of the n ble oi, better, have Miiull iruy. and place one at tnoh end. Or have the plate of rolls ou a uear By Geo. McManus are effected by cheerfulness and joy. There can bo no doubt that happiness and contentment of mind are real factors in life. home folks are miserable and cranky on "Hlue Monday." They have formed the habit of "blowi-g off steam" on Monday. They clean house with their tempers on Monday. This isa bad habit. It is an unnecessary habit. It is an inexcusable habit. ' I look with pity upon a man who has every body in a ferment of misery, because he chooses to vent his feelings on his associates. A business man who growls at hi. clerks all through the first half of the day, is equalled in manners only by the clerk who "snaps the head off" the cus tomer. Why give way to such emotions? t show? as little character as to yield to the temptation to steal, or to commit some other crime of im pulse. hypocritical In preaching a doctrine should weigh about 129 pounds.

Health Bulletin BEWARE OF POI80N OAK Vacationists, campers and hikers through the Oregon woods are warned against the danger that lurks in the Rhus rad leans or di verailoba or "poison oak'. The plant, the leaves of which appear in clusters of three, may well give pause to all those who are tramp lug in the country. It is worth while for overy out-of-doors person to know how to recosnize this plant so that he may be able to distinguish between vegetation that is friendly and those plants and vines and other growing things that should be avoided. Poison oak is one of the worst offenders, as the growth of this creeping, clinging and climbtne vine is particularly abundant. But you can avoid It If you will remem ber that poison oak is readily dis tinguishable from other vines by its three leaflets. The plant is a shrub which grows wild in this state. It may lay prostrate upon the ground, though it will climb shrubbery or trees in sunny loca tions. It may grow erect with a self-supporting stem. The leaves have a peculiar satiny appearance. The flowers are greenish yellow and are followed by small drupace ous pale green smooth frulta borne In lopse bunches. The dermatitic-skin poisoning that is caused by poison oak which Is not an oak at all, is due to an irritative resinous substance In the sap of the plants. Some of the conditions under which poisoning can occur from this plant are in dispute. ' There is the widest difference in susceptibility of different individu als; some being apparently in capable of being .poisoned by it, while others who have been ex posed to it frequently for years without result may suddenly be come seriously poisoned. Others, again, are extremely sensitive to its action the most serious re sults ensuing even from moderate contact. The mere presence of this ou one tramp Into the country may not necessarily he the cause of poison oak dermatitis hut it is a potential source of danger since there is every opportunity of brushing against or trampling Its branches in passing. While cases of poison oak can be usually traced to direct contact with the plant It self It is quite possible to be af fected Indirectly for the sap can be carried on fur or bodies of ani mals, on farm implements, golf sticks or balls, ou clothing, shoes and even In smoke coming from the burning branches of this plant. Some cases of poison oak have been traced to bonfires fed by heavy tenacious branches of this plant. When one is known to have come in contact with .poison oak. especially one who is known to-be susceptible, washing the hands as soon as possible with a good lather of an alkaline soap is of some benefit since the poisonous resin Is not soluble in water and cannot be removed by that alone, itching and redness are the first symptoms of the dermatitis which may be de laved for a day or several days. If you have these symptoms you should consult your doctor In or der that he may be able to tell you what to do next. VICTOR L.

State Press Comment THE WILD LIFE OF OREGON (Morning Oregonian) Governor Patterson said the other day that, in his opinion, the wild life of this state is one of Oregon's greatest assets, If indeed ft is not the greatest of all. This will be an astonishment to per sons who may have believed that a tilled field and a brick factory are evidences of the soundest econom ic resource. Nor do we deny, nor does Ihe governor, that agriculture and industry are primarily essen tial to a prosperous common wealth. But the native charm and beauty of any state are in those regions never cleft by plowshare, and never laid waste by the ax; in waters populous with fishes, and in fields and forests plentl fully stocked with game. That la what the governor meant, and he said it at a time when it should have been said, for the attention of practical persons. If you please, as well as for the ears of sportsmen and na ture ldvers, who often are accused of being impractical. In the present period, more than in any other since the da) a of the pioneer, the citizens of America are turning to nature for the recre ation and contentment. It is as (hough thuy had only now discov ered their own country, its wealth of beauty and of wild life. Perhaps this is because Americans, as a people, have more of leisure aud of means than any other people. But certain it is that, whatever reason may lie at the root of the matter, the unspoiled country 'means more to the average American of today than it did to hla father. Is it be cause there is less of it remaining as nature designed It, and peopled with the wild creatures? Is it be cause such areas as these no long er are commonplace? The governor was right about it. It is a great trust aud a generous heritage and an asset of tremen dous value. It brings tourists and sportsmen to Oregon, it bring. home builders also, and there is the best of all practical reasons, if we must be practical why we should conserve aud protect the wild life of the state, insuring al ways that our woods may be ten anted, our waters bright with trout and salmon. Eugene's New Club (Corvailis Gazette-Times) J Eugene is figuring on a new club. : it is to have no connection with any oervice ciub, which is in its favor, tor all the money paid into it will ue kept at home instead of being .,ent to national and international oniciais who ihereoy make their living off tue sucKers who belpn?. i'nat s where tne word ''service comes in the members are of great service to 'the otficers who draw down the princely salaries or keeping the suckers in a Btule ut suukiug. , Tne proposed Eugene 'Jiub to be purely a local affair, lie the Atiiugtou club in Portland.

It has no ambition to do work of either tne cnamber of commerce or the ited Cross. U has no "program." It is to be formed purely for the grati iication and pleasure and conven ience of its members and for tht reason it may fill some useful pur pose and have some excuse for existing. The Arlington club in Portland takes In ouiy prominent Portland people or state people.

CONVICT LABOR SAVES OREGON MANY THOUSAND SALEM, Ore., July 19. With over 100 convicts at the state penitentiary engaged in the con struction of buildings authorized by the 1929 legislature, it is esti mated by superintendent Henry W.

The coct of similar buildings "outside," it is said, would be at least 176,000. Although it is much easier to raise calves by reeding them milk for six months or more, good calves can be raised without milk nfter the firs' two months, pro vided that they have a good start anil are strong healthy calves at weaning time, says the Oregon ex periment station.

ATHLETICS ADD TO LEAD MARGIN OVER THE YANKS By WILLIAM J. CHIPMAN ' (Associated Press Sports Writer) The- Athletic yesterday took another step toward making the American league lafe for Connie Mack. Behind George Earnshaw's crafty pitching, the Athletics hand cuffed the TigerB by 4 to 2 while the Yankees were dividing a doubleheader in Cleveland. The champions won the other by 7 to 2, but the Indians took back the second decision 11 to 3. After drawing a piss in the first inning of the opener Bube Ruth pulled up lame on the bases, and disappeared for the rest of the day. In Ruth's absence, Lou Gehrig hit his 23rd homer, taking the league lead from the great man witb whom he had been tied. Alphonse Thomas pitched the White Sox to a 2 to 1 victory over the Red Sox in Chicago and tho Browns downed the Senators by 7 to 3 in St. Louts, completing the American league program. Doublehenders will be encoun tered at almost overy turn in the National league today as a result of yesterday's rain. Only the Cards and the Braves are failing to double up.
