Immunization is
Offered as Barrier
To Diphtheria
Tho importance of immuniza
tion against diphtheria Is strong
ly emphasized by the presence
of the disease In w-ldPly scattered
parts of the county, according to
Dr. E. J. Wainscott, county
health officer. Six cases hava
been reported since August 1, he
reports, but there is behoved to
be no danger of an epidemic and
every precaution to guard against
spread of the disease has been
takeq.
One death partly due to diph
theria, but involving complica
tions, has occurred, Dr. Wains
cott said, but all other cases so
far reported have been in mild
form.
At present three cases arc un
der treatment, one at Umpqua,
where the patient Is convalescing,
and two In Roseburg.
Dun to the fact that the two
patients in Roseburg are high
school students, t hte county
health unit has tatken cultures
from the throats of all students
and teachers and has been given
Schick tests in a number of
cases. Only two positive reac
tions were found and both have
been isolated for observation.
Protection Available.
"There is no reason why any
great number of persons should
suffer from diphtheria when
medical science has provided a
means of immunization which
protects more than 95 per cent
of those treated," Dr. Wainscott
declared today. "Parents," he
said, "should provide this protec
tion for their children early In
life and should sec that all are
given toxoid immunization and
that the Schick test is taken at

DAILY DEVOTIONS
DR. CHAS. A. EDWARDS
The more busy the day. a
greater tho need for prayer Is
well exemplified in the life of
Jesus Christ. In the words,
"He went apart to pray," re
minds us of just one day in
His life. What He prayed, no
one knows, but we know that
often He went apart to pray
and be alone. Une of the mem
bers of the Mount Everest ex
pedition had the joy of reach
it.a a very high spot, Mount
Mana peak on the Himalayas.
He describes his wunderiul ex
perlence as follows: "The sil
ence of that elevation seemed
to mo the silence of eternity
and space." As we ascend up
the mountain top to the high
est peak of divine love, shall
we experience the silence of
eternity? Prayer is not a
monologue. All the time our
talking lo God, it Is also a lis
tening to Him, and hearing
what He has to say to us. du
ly as we experience tho splen
dor of silence In the divine
Presence, for tho highest is
beyond words - there comes to
us that inward peace and
strength which enables us to
face our task with courage
and vision. Let us learn to
keep the silent sanctuaries,
for in them are preserved the
eternal perspectives. "I will
lift up mine eyes unto the
hills from whence cometh my
help. My help cometh from
the Lord. Who made heaven
and earth." Amen.

Thanksgiving Is
Proclaimed Nov. 20
By Gov. Sprague -
SALEM, Npv- 11 (AP)-Gov.
ernor Sprague today proclaimed
November 20 as Thanksgiving
day, asking Oregon citizens to
"use this occasion to light anew
the candles of our faith in the
fatherhood of God and Ihe .uitj.
mate brotherhood of man."
The date, tho third Thursday
In the month, is the same as pro
claimed by President Roosevelt
and by the governors of most
other states. Next year, how
ever, the date will be changed
back to the traditional last
Thursday of the month.
The text of the proclamation:
"Thursday, the twentieth day
of November, 1941, has been ap
pointed a day of thanksgiving
for the United States of America
hy the president thereof, the
Honorable Franklin D. Rung,.,
volt. Novy therefore 1, Charles J)
Sprague, governor of the state uf
Oregon, do proclaim said Thurs
day, the twentieth day of No
vember next, as Thanksgiving
day for Oregon, to be observed
as a public holiday.
"Measured by the statistics of
the market place this year has
been a prosperous one for all our
people. Production of farms awk
factories has been at high and
profitable levels. Labor has been
fully employed at wages gener
ally the highest in history. The
fevers of prosperity have driven
out the chills of the late depres
sion. For these present economic
advantages we should be truly
graleful.
War Threat Mars Picture
"Nevertheless, the festal qual
ity of Thanksgiving is now
clouded by threat of war: 'For,
lo, the wicked bond their bow,
they make ready their arrow u Xi
on the string.' Our usual nnjoj
nient of Ihe season is tempered
with anxiely, which is felt the
more keenly in homes whence
young men have gone into Ini
tiation's military service. The sat
isfactions which ' follow the
year's abundant harvests are
dulled by knowledge of tho want
and distress endured by fellow
beings in lands visited by the
scourge of war.
"In this time of world trial it
is most appropriate for our peo
ple lo assemble in their custo
mary places of worship, on the
day herein appointed, not alone
to thank Almighty God for out
material blessings, but to give
thanks that we as a people are
sensitive to the sufferings of the
oppressed in other lands; and lo
pray that we be not slaves to our
own fleshpots, but have the couj)
:ige to bare the breast and raise
the arm if n,m,l hi, tl.,,t ihn
" i .... "r
pressor may be overthrown. It is
filling also, in the midst of uni
versal doubt and despair .that
w e use I his occasion to light
anew the candles of our faith in
the fatherhood o: God and Ihe ul
timate brotherhood of man.
"In witness whereof I have
hereunto set my hand and caus
ed the seal of the state of Ore
gon lo he affixed.
"Done in the city of Salem Ibis
tenth day of November, ill Ihe
year of our Lord, nineteen hun
dred and forty-one.
"CHARLES A. SPRAGUE,
"Governor."
