Dr. George Parrish. city health offi
cer, who left Portland Sunday for San
Francisco, where he will attend the
annual convention of health officers
of the United States.
Dr. Parrish plans to attempt the
formation of an association of health
officers of Pacific coast cities. For
two' months past he has been quietly
working to this end, having addressed
letters to all the hea,lth officials on
the coast. Dr. Parrish believes that,
inasmuch as the health problems con
fronting the Pacific coast cities are
usually similar, an association com
posed of the officials of the coast will
be extremely valuable.
HARD LUCK LEADS TO JAIL
TWO YOUTHS GET 9 0 AXO 6 0
DAYS FOR THEFT OF COATS.
Money Lost in Walla Walla Pool
Hall Poker Game, Pair Ride
Blinds to Portland.
Hard luck and the.raiiyr weather
combined brought two boys, Walter
Smith. 22, and Fay Stoffer, 20, to
grief in municipal court yesterday
when they were sentenced by Mu
niclpal Judge Rossman to- 90 and 60
days respectively for larceny of two
overcoats.
The boys told the judge that they
had been- working in the harvest
fields in eastern Oregon and Wash
ington, but while in Walla Walla they
sat in on a pool hall poker game
which reduced their finances almost
to zero. Arriving in Pendleton, their
financial straits were such that the
older boy, Smith, was forced to sell
his only coat to obtain the necessaj-y
funds to eat, and when they journeyed
to Portland via the "blind baggage"
route. Smith was in his shirt sleeves.
In Portland the boys wandered
through the streets penniless and Job
less. It was raining, and Smith was
coatless. They passed a car parked
on Fifth and Stark streets Friday in
which reposed two overcoats, the
property of C. C. Emil and his son
of 653 Kerby street, who were visiting
a doctor's office. Smith admitted in
court that he had taken the overcoats
at that time, but they were not missed
by the owners until the next day,
when the police were notified.
Both coats have been recovered.
One was in a pawnshop and the oth
er was in the hands of Stoffer when
he was arrested after visiting several
pawnshops, according to the police.

BEND, Or., Sept. 13. (Special.) A
defunct Deschutes county school dis
trict came to life suddenly yesterday
when Mrs. Maude Catlow took up her
residence in Harper, 20 miles south of

boast of the smallest enrollment in
Deschutes county, for in the Brothers
district one pupil represents the total
registration. No teacher has as yet
been retained. The Horse Ridge
school has a maximum enrollment of
three, and often the enrollment dwin
dles to one.

Q
Provision in Oregon Act Is Consid
ercd Improvement -Abuses AVill
Be Minimized, 'Belief.
That the market commission bill
which will be passed upon by the
voters of Oregon at the general elec
tion this fall, is substantially the
same as the market commisssion act
of California is the statement made
by Colonel Harris Weinstock, former
market director of that 'state, in. a
letter which has been received at the
headquarters of the State Taxpayers'
league in Portland.
Colonel Weinstock states that the
only difference in the two measures
is a provision In the proposed Oregon
law placing all co-operative associa
tions existing under state laws under
the direction of the state market
commission. He adds that he consid
ers this provision an improvement
over the California law in that it will
tend to minimize any abuses and keep
co-operative marketing associations
on a safe basis, thus insuring a higher,
degree of success and minimizing pos
sible failures.
"Statements that have been made
by opponents of the measure that the
Oregon law will not do for the farm
ers of this state what the market
commission has done for the farmers
of California because no similarity
exists between the two acts are ab
surd." he said. "The framers of the
Oregon bill had but one thing in
mind In drafting their measure, and
that was to adhere In every possible
way to the California act. so that the
same measure of success might be
secured in this state as had been
achieved there."

Indoor
Workers'
Eyes!
The writer of this mes
sage, up to a certain day
some years ago, had appar
ently perfect eyes.
Since that day he has worn glasses and still has far
from good eyesight.
The damage was done before he even had a warning.
Those, who work indoors under conditions which strain
the eyes can often be fitted with glasses which need
only be worn at work, thus adding years to the efficiency,
of the eye.
But it must be done in time. Do not wait for a
warning.
We will be glad to make an examination and give you
a dependable report on their condition.
