OREGON Boy Shows Dad He Wasn't Wise As He Thought One of the strangest bear stories in years took place on Jack’s Creek about a week ago. Signs of a large bear were noted on the Freeman log ging road near Claud Wright place, so Gary, 13-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Jackson, decided he was go ing to trap it. Starting out with a smooth-jawed coon trap, he care/ully set it. Of course, his father and the neighbors were having a big laugh at the idea of his catching a bear with a coon trap but they were the ones who laughed too soon. When Gary went back the next day, there was a 500- 1b. bear caught by one toe in his smooth-jav^ed coon trip sitting on top of a log. Gary, who had brought his father’s rifle along, proceed ed to shoot the animal. Jack Upmeyer was along when he killed the bear and there were two very excited young ment and some very sur prised elders. A NATION OF "Alcoholics u Unanimous “That’s What We’ll Become if the Present Trend to Alcoholism Continues,” warns a recent session of the Institute of Scientific Study for the Prevention of Alcoheiism. THIS SAME SESSION ESTIMATES THAT 50% Of High School and College Students use Alcohol, WHY? There’s only one answer. The use of alcohholic beverages has been promoted by false and malicious liquor advertising to such an ex tent that our children have come to believe that the use of these poisons is a SOCIAL MUST---------------------- Surplus Feed Spuds Are Available Now GOLD BEACH—The Produc- tion and Marketing Administra- lion just announced the avail ability of surplus potatoes to be fed to livestock at an increased price. The price is now 24c per cwt., government point of pur chase in sacks or 10c per cwt. । in bulk. TThe two nearest points of purchase include Kalamth Falls and Redmond. Estimating freight ] at $10 per ton the delivered buk cost in Curry county would be $12 per ton or $14.80 in sacks. This is approximately equal to $70 per ton for barley measured by total digestible nutriients. j Potatoes are nearly 80% water. This price comparison has. been computed by County Agent’ Knox. Additional information is available upon request at the county PMA office in Gold Beach. These same liquor interests cannot escape the responsibility for the ruined homes, ship-ivrecked lives, and increasing national im- morality which stems from the use of their product. And yet they cry “UNFAIR” when an attempt is made by the aroused populace of our state to put an end to their false and mis- leading propaganda. They tell us that alcoholic beverages are used by "MEN OF DIS- TINCTION" and that "BEER BELONGS" in our homes. Yet they fail to show what happens, far too often, to the men, the homes. and even the boys and girls who fall prey to their misleading ad- vertising. Have you ever seen one of their “ads” picturing the drunk in the gutter, the broken home or the innocent victims who have been criminally attacked and murdered by those who have “blacked out” after use of their product? Of course you haven’t! H/iaf a HOWL you hear coming from the liquor interests because their “RIGHTS" to advertise these poisons is now being threatened.
