An endocrine secretion or hor
mone Is a natural chemical ele
ment of Ula body. Instead of being
poured Into the body through a
duct, as Is the case with the se
cretions of non-endocrine glands,
the hormone is absorbed by the
blood as the blood passes through
the gland. The hormone is then
carried by tho blood to all parts
of the body.
The Elands which producn the
hormones are called the glands of
internal secretion .or endocrine
glands. Some glands produce iiolh
an internal and an external se
cretion, as for example, th pan
creas. The sex glands also have
internal and oxtnmal secretins.
The hormones secreted by the
endocrine glands have many and
varied duties t perforin. They
play a role in transmitting nerv
ous stimulation, control of salt and
water balance, reproduction, met
abolism, growth, production of in
sulin, and control of blond pres
sure and they also influence the
digestiva processes. The hormones
perform their specific tasks far
from their location in the body.
When rapidity of action is essen
tial, the body is organized and con
trolled through the central nerv
ous system. When there is no harm
In the action's being slow or even
extremely slow and prolonged,
then the body makes use of the
chemical, rather than the nervous,
means of control. An example ol
slow coordination in the body h
the growlh of the bones. Such
growth is rarely complete until a
person has reached adult age.
Therefore, for twenty years or
more the rate of growth of each
bone in the body has to keep pace
with the others. This coordination
is brought about by minute doses
of an internal secretion from the

Minority Of Elk
Hunters Blamed
For Woods Fires
General rains of the past weeks
have brought to a close in the Pa
cific Northwest one of the longest
fall forest fire seasons on record.
Kermit W. Lindstedt, Fore.it Ser
vict regional fire chief, stated that
the 1052 season compares closely
in length with that of 1836 when
the town of Bandon burned with
the loss of 11 lives.
Despite the severity of the 1952
season, losses were relatively low
on lands protected by the Forest
Service in Oregon and Washing
ton; 13,508 acres were burned in
in 1,582 fires. Last year, 62,758
acres went up in smoke as the
result of only 814 fires.
Highlight of the season, accord
ing to Lindstedt, was the jiplended
public response in assisting with
control of fires. This includes log
gers, the Red Cross, local civil
defense units, stockmen, hunters,
radio and press, and other coop
erators. Deer hunters of both Ore
gon and Washington responded in
good fashion to fire prevention ap
peals. A very low number of fires
resulted from the use of the for
ests by a large number of deer
hunters under exceptionally dry
conditions.
A minority of elk hunters, how
ever, failed to live up to the trust
placed in them, Lindstedt said. Of
the 198 hunter-caused fires, nearly
three-fourths of them occurred
during the relatively short elk
season in November. Most of
these fires resulted from warming
fires carelessly abandoned by hunt
ers whose vigilance, it is believed,
was lulled by a few light show
ers and cold November nights.
Although similar in many re
spects, the 1952 season differed
widely from the 1936 season In
losses. In 1938, a total of 1.290 fires
burned 28,853 acres of national for
est protected .ands. In 1952, less
than one-half that acreage was lost
a greater number of fires.

pituitary gland, which Is poured
into the blood from before bi.'th to
old age. The late of grow'.h of
different bonos is coordinated by
means of certain hormones.
The endocrine glands secrete
hormones in varying numbers. The
pthyroid, parathyroid, and pancre
as apparently secrete one hormone
each. The adrenals and sex glands
secrete at least two each while
the anterior pituitary gland se
cretes eight or more. Each gland
has certain characteristic func
tions, the disturbance of which
causes various changes in the ap
pearance and function of the body,
The endocrine glands are locat
ed in different parts of the body
The pituitary is situated at the
base of the skull; the thyroid, in
the neck; the parathyroid, also in
the neck: the pancreas and the
two adrenal glands, above the kid
neys; the sex glands, which in
elude the ovaries and testicles, in
the pelvic region, the pineal giand
in the brain area; and the thymus,
under the breast bone until puber
ty. Not many Ideas in connection
with the body functions are
entirely new. The idea of control
by hormones, although It dates
from the beginning of the twentieth
century, is a revival and elabora
tion of a similar idea which was
widely held in the Middle Ages.
That actions of the various hor
mones differ widely, yet their bas
ic chemical sliucturc is similar.
These natural chemical elements
of the body are active in extreme
ly small dilutions. They are pres
ent in the blood, lymph and in the
glands in small quantities. They
control such extremely vital func
tions as growth and nutrition. They
also Influence) mentality and per
sonality. (I'd. Adv.)

Final Tabulation
Gives Eisenhower
Six Million Lead
By HAROLD OLIVER
WASHINGTON UH Gen. Dwight
D. Eisenhower defeated Gov. Adlai
Stevenson for president on Nov. 4
by 6,616,233 as a vote-conscious
electorate marked a record-smash
ing 61,547,861 ballots.
These are the official figures as
compiled by The Associated Press
as the last four states reported
their canvasses yesterday to com
plete the national count:
Eisenhower 33.927,549
Stevenson 27,311,318
Others 308,996
Presidential electors will cast
their votes in the respective states
Monday showing Eisenhower to
have carried 19 states with an
electoral vote ol 442 and Steven
son to have won only nine states
with 89. Congress in joint session
will make the count ultra-official
Jan. 6 and Eisenhower will take
office Jan. 20.
The 1952 official figures show
many records were broken in an
election that gave Gen. Eisenhow
er a tremendous personal victory.
The total vote broke the previous
record of 1940 by 11,727,549, and
exceeded the 1948 aggregate by
12,859,572.
Thirty - nine states showed a
better than 70 percent turnout in
flation to their estimated elig
ibles. Where actual registrations
were known it is bclieve'd that
New York led in this category with
91 percent. Rhode Island, Connec

igan, Oklahoma and Utah exceed
ed this but only in percentages
based on "estimated' registra
tions" which could have been too

Continued "expansion of wood

Douelas County placed third in

Camas School's
Progress Noted
The Camas Valley School has
recently acquired several new
teaching aids, including a portable
radiant daylight screen which can
be used to show movies, strip film
and" slides in the individual rooms
in ordinary daylight, without the
need of darkening the room.
In connection with this purchase,
the school now has a strip film-
slide combination projector and
several strip films dealing with
fractions, decimals, resources, pri
mary reading, government and
various other subjects. Several
teachers have already made use
of the new equipment.
The school has also started a
record library with an album of
square dance records for use in
both grade and high school physi
cal education classes, and two
albums of action-records for the
primary department
According to Superintendent

aids room, where all these materia-
als, and also the school's two phono
graphs, regular projecter and dark
screen, and loud speaking system,
are stored and may be signed out
by the individual teachers whenev
er they are needed. Bolstering the
record library are a stack of popu
lar records for school dances,
which have been mostly donated by
the students.
The grade school has ordered a
set of Compton's Encylopedias,
which with the present set of World
Book Encylopedias, will be placed
on two carts for easy moving from
room to room when needed. A new
file cabinet and safe combination
have been ordered for the office,
