HOW TO AVOID COLDS Extremes In Heat Endanger Your Well-Being Last Sunday we visited a sick friend. It was noticeable how hot his room was. It was heated by a wood stove. On the way home we visited a family who were gathered about a wood stove. The temperature here was oppressive, Almost 90 degrees. In order to please us they. opened the window. As a re sult one of us has a sore throat and ever since has doctored a bad cold in the head. This is a very common experience in thousands of homes. Most people do not realize how dan gerous to their health this han-hazard mode of heating a home is. With a 'Gasco furnace controlled by a thermo stat, the temperature in the house is kept around 70 degrees all day long.

BANNER-COURIER WANT ADS BRING RESULTS State Monopoly of Schools would cost Ill taxes over $1,000,000 year for operation Over $3,000,000 for buildings and grounds TPHE first cost of state monopoly of schools would be something over three million dollars for new buildings and grounds. We would have to pay a yearly tax of over one million dollars for operation in addition to . what we are paying now. They propose that Oregonians pay this bill for "Real Americanism." But it is not Amer icanism to take away the "right of the parent to control the education of the child. They propose that we pay this tall to have "Compulsory School." But we actually have compulsory school right now under the present law. Be not deceived What this burden cf added taxes will go for is an experiment in education along communistic lines the substitution of state monopoly in education for parental guidance.
