As inappropriate as nxny hair in a . There are indications that the badly needed work of widen ing and rebuilding the Oregon Trial across the Klue Moun tainswill be started soon. Every good thing in its turn and it will be a big job. The survey for grading, surfacing indicates a job costing two to three hundred thousand. v That plane flying over Culver City, California, makes you think that the day is not far distant when flying around the world on one hop will be possilrio. The plane has already traveled over eighteen thousand miles. But a nine-mile circle is somewhat easier than flying 'over oceans nnd deserts and mountain. ' It's circus day in La Grande. Boys and gills who read thrilling tales of wild animals can now journey to the big lop and see the real thing. Adults, minus the good fortune and happy alibi of a youngster or two, trail along to renew their ;yOTtirh7VymTs"!S oTlfly educational event. People who live in smaller communities where a large zoo is unknown acquire knowledge of strange animals and strange lands on the circus, lot and like it. Always old, it is forever new. Who (s there, retaining the spark of youth, who doesn't anticipate it with pleasure? It's circus day in Ln Grande. I'AYJNG FOR B1C1NC SICK The high cost of being sick has received some attention at the convention of the American Medical Association in Portland, with those in attendance arguing that the cost is determined by factors other than the fees charged by physi cians. Much discussion of the subject during the past year indicates that there is truth in what the doctors say. It is, everyone ngrees, increasingly expensive to suffer' an illness, but considering the service rendered and the long period of preparation and largo investment of money consumed in ' preparing for that service, doctors are frequently underpaid instead of overpaid. The solution is in a more comprehen sive plan of community aid for those unable to pay their way when doctors and hospitals must be utilized. We take care of the mental welfare of our young people, the physical com forts of our aged, but we devote very little, if any, attention to the health of our citizenry generally when indivduals need a doctor's care or hospitalization and aren't able to pay for it. Doctors and hospitals cannot be expected to render health services to all needy cases without compensation. Yet they all do it, intentionally or because they can't help themselves, lime after time. The average country practitioner has thou sands of dollars on his books that he can't collect and that he hasn't any hope of collecting. Some of the accounts could well le paid, and should be, but many others are out of the ques tion. The doctor must classify it as charity work and forget it. In practically all instances he is glad to render the service regardless of payment. And organized communities are too prone to let the whole problem slide with the various prac titioners carrying the burden. County and city do give some aid,- but it is pitifully small. That is what's wrong. We should have a better organized means of rendering this neces sary service. It would mean much to the health and happi ness of self-respecting (people who hesitate, to incur an obligation that they cannot pay, yet who value health and who would guard against the appearance of disease. Ijnge cities are beginning to give attention to the problem. They are providing funds to help carry the burden, to maintain clinics and various healing services. But the smaller com munities lag behind. Because the iuiiiiIh r of needy cases is relatively small and because the doctors in the community have taken the responsibility in the past, there is no definite effort to'.vard correction.
