Eight questions propoun4ed by Dr.
George Parrish. city health officer. In
regard to the anti-compulsory vac
cination amendment to be voted on
at the coming election, have been an
swered in. detail by City Attorney La
Roche, in an opinion concurred in by
H. B Mclnturff. attorney, Oregon
state board of health, which tends to
show that the passing- of the proposed
amendment would) completely nullify
certain, publlo health regulations at
present and would seriously limit and
retard the operation of others.
Among the questions asked by Dr.
Parrish are:
Could the worlt of the Cedars be
continued? Could Quarantine be en
forced against self -limiting, common
communicable diseases? To what ex
tent could quarantine be enforced
against diseases that are not self
limiting? In institutions such as baby
homes where the inmates have not
the power to exercise preference in
sufh matters, could the present
ffalth authorities give anti-infectious
idlsease Inoculations contrary to the
wish and desire of the custodians of
such persons in the event of an out
break of such disease? Would persons
exposed to communicable diseases be
permitted to mingle freely with the
public? What would be the effect on
the foodhandlers" ordinance? Could
the health authorities insist upon dis
infection and fumigation for the pro
tection of public health? Is there such
& thing as compulsory vaccination in
Oregon at the present time?
Detailed Answers Given.
The legal opinion set forth by At
torneys LaRoche and Mclnturff takes
tip each question in detail, of which
the following is a summary:
If the constitutional amendment toe
enacted, women who are affected
with social diseases will still have the
right of access to the Cedars, but it
will not be within the power of the
city to prescribe or administer any
inoculation or medication as a con
dition of granting such access.
Whether it would be possible to con
tinue the work of the Cedars under
such conditions is difficult to state.
It would be unfair to the taxpayers
to indefinitely maintain at the Cedars
persons afflicted with one of these
diseases who refused to take the pre
scribed treatment.
If the amendment be adopted it will
be necessary for the health authori
ties to Impose quarantine regulations
upon all who have been exposed to
self-limiting, common communicable
diseases, or to none. If the first alter
native is adopted thenk a great hard
ship and unnecessary inconvenience
is placed upon those who may have
been successfully vaccinated. If the
other alternative be accepted then
those who have been exposed to
smallpox must be allowed to go to
school and attend other gatherings
where they are likely to expose and
perhaps infect hundreds of others
with the same disease.
Quarantine Is Possible,
In answer to the third question, it
would be possible to inforce quaran
tine against diseases that are not
self-limiting, and the quarantine
could be continued until the affected
one died, but it would not be within
the power of the public authorities
to administer any remedy without
consent of the patient.
In regard to children in a public
or private institution, the proposed
amendment says that "no form of in
oculation or medication shall be made
a condition for the exercise of any
right or the enjoyment of any priv
ilege." This means that neither the
state, the city health authorities nor
tho management of such an institu
tion could impose any such conditions
on the children under their care. In
other words, it would be necessary
before applying such treatment, to
obtain the consent of the parent or
Bruardlan and if the parent or guard
ian bo unknown or beyond reach of
officials then it would be necessary
to refrain from applying the treat
ment, however monstrous or unrea
sonable this course might appear.
The foodhandlers' ordinancS would
not be entirely nullified, but there
would no doubt be greater difficulty
In its enforcement, inasmuch as it
would bo impossible for the health
authorities to make successful treat
ment of social or other communicable
diseases a condition for obtaining a
permit to handle food intended for
human consumption.
In regard to the seventh question,
it would be impossible for the health
authorities to impose disinfection as
a condition of being released from
quarantine and If the patient did not
voluntarily consent to disinfection it
would bo necessary for the health au
thorities to maintain the quarantine
until a sufficient length of time had
elapsed to eliminate further danger.
Lastly, under the present health
regulations in Oregon and the City of
Portland, there is no compulsory vac
cination. Those who have been ex
posed to smallpox are not required to
be vaccinated. They are only pro
hibited during the period of incubar
tion from attending schools and other
places where people congregate un
less successfully vaccinated.

AFTER marriage how much of
each 24 hours does a wife owe
her husband?
This Is the question asked in "Mid
channel" thi3 week's feature at the
Majestic theater. Clara Kimball
Toung is its star playing the role
which Ethel Barrymore made famous
when the stage play was produced
from the book of the same title. There
is a vast difference in these two act
resses, each of them considered excel
lent in their respecitve fields, and it
is a far cry from the spoken and sil
ent dramitisations of "Midchannel."
As a cinema, necessarily it has been
dealt with more completely, the wide
range of the camera making possible
great detail and wide range of locale.
This has been gained where many of
the clever, brillant lines of the book
and legitimate production have been
lost.
"Midchannel" is the story of a
woman who by careless selfishness
which che termed freedom, lost out
in the hot race for continued happi
ness. She became estranged from her
husband after a marriage interval of
10 years and when she found that per
haps the old companionship was the
better she planned to bid the man re
turn on her terms. He objected. She
had been so sure of fler ground that
bridges had been, quickly, impulsively
burned until in her last need she had
no highway back to happiness other
than the long oblivion of death.
But on the screen, it is positive not
legal to have a sad, unhappy ending.
So patrons of the Majestic may look
forward to seeing the much talked
of "Midchannel" and a picture with a
satisfying ending- at one and the same
time.
A Carter DeHaven comedy is also
on this week's Majestic bill.

Whitman Bennett announces the
starting of the third of the series of
Lionel Barrymore pictures to be re
leased through First National, "The
Great Adventure." This is an adap
tation of the play written by Arnold
Bennett, itself founded and adapted
from the novel "Buried Alive" by
the same author.
Kenneth Wefob, who has directed
Mr." Barrymore in his first two pro
ductions for First National release,
"The Master Mind" and "The Devil's
Garden," will also direct this feature.
The cast will include Doris Rankin,
Ivo Dawson. Octavia Broske, Thomas
Braiden. Charles Lane, Jean Prouty,
Arthur Rankin and Maybeth Carr.
The character portrayed in "The
Great Adventure" by Mr. Barrymore
that of an artist of eccentric habits
and manner is said to provide the
star with an unusual opportunity for
the display of his ability and de
pictive powers and for the develop
ment of an old comedy character
which departs widely from any pre
vious role Mr. Barrymore has thus
far created.

Arrangements for establishing the
proposed farm home for dependent
children have been completed and are
detpendent now upon success of the
campaign drive ror 125.000 which
the Oregon Woman's Christian Tern
Derance union, sponsors of the move
ment, will Inaugurate during the
week of November 15 to 22.
An explanation of the work done
thus far by the general committee
and of the hopes of the people .who
are determined to make this move
ment a success, was given yesterday
by Alfred C. Schmitt, Albany banker.
who is president of the board of di
rectors elected to manage the affairs
of the corporation which will have
charge of the home.
Suitable Tract Found.
"After due investigation a special
committee, of which I was chairman,
found that a suitable tract for the
establishment of this farm home for
dependent and orphan children could
be purchased in Benton county, near
Corvallis," said Mr. Schmitt. 'It con
sists of nearly 300 acres and can be
bought for $50,000. We further found
that suitable buildings could be erect
ed, including one or two cottages
which were to serve as unit3 for car
ing for dependent children, at a cost
of about $15,000, and that the stock
ing of a farm would cost about $10,-
000 more.
"It Is the Intention to have a cen
tral administration building on the
farm with cottages grouped about it
as they are needed, each cottage to
care for from 10 to 15 children, with
a motherly woman in charge of each
one. The farm is to be stocked with
dairy cattle and poultry, and at least
from 10 to 20 acres set out in small
fruit and berries. The balance is to
be put to diversified farming. We
want to supply fresh vegetables,
fruits, eggs, fresh milk and butter in
abundance, to be used as food for the
children.
Educational Advantages Planned.
"It Is our intention that these chil
dren on the Woman's Christian Tem
perance union farm home shall be
given the best educational advan
tages. Zt is planned to send them to
a nearby district school and in case
there is no such school near at hand,
we will establish a school on the
farm. For high school training and
further advanced work it is the in
tention to send them to Corvallis
schools or to the State Agricultural
college.
On every hand the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance union is receiving
-indorsements of this farm home
movement. Governor Olcott is hon
orary chairman of the campaign com
mittee, and the state child welfare
commission not only has indorsed the
movement by unanimous vote, but
individual members have given i
surance that they will make speaking
trips over the state in behalf of the
campaign.
-me worn of organizing every
county, city and schol district in Ore
gon is now under way, with Frank
C. Jackson as campaign director.
With its organization completed, the
Woman's Christian Temperance union
hopes to procure the full quota of
$125,000 within the one week allotted
for the state-wide canvass.
AIRPLANES TO JOIN PARKS
Yellowstone to Glacier Trip Could
Be Made in Three Hours.
BUTTE, Mont. Commercial organi
zations in Butte are considering the
project of establishing airplane pas
senger' routes between Butte and
Tellowstone national park. This has
been suggested by Harvey A. Beilgard
of Billings, who was an aviator dur
ing the world war.
The plan includes the bringing to
Butte of a number, of 40-passenger
airplanes built by the government for
bombing. It is estimated that such
an airplane could leave Butte at 7
o'clock in the morning and reach Tel
lowstone park at 9:30 A. M. Glacier
park could be reached, it is said, in a
trip of three hours by air. The dis
tance by road from Tellowstone to
Glacier park is 400 miles, while by
air it is only 275 miles.
Aviator Beilgard estimates he could

That science found to benefit the teeth
gestant in the saliva. That is to digest
the starch deposits which otherwise
cling and may form acid. It multiplies
the alkalinity of the saliva, to neutralize
the acids which cause tooth decay.
These results come from every ap
plication. Twice a day the teeth's great
enemies are effectively combated. The
benefits to teeth are such as old meth
ods never brought.
Another ingredient is pepsin.
Dental science, after years of re
search, has evolved new .methods of
teeth cleaning. Highest authorities now
approve the new principles. And mil
lions of people are employing these
methods, largely by dental advice.
They mean a new era in teeth pro
tection whiter, cleaner, safer teeth.
This is to urge that you make a ten-day
test and watch the results for yourself.
Film the great enemy
The chief object is to fight the film,
the cause of most tooth troubles.
Film is that viscous coat you feel. It
clings to teeth, gets between the teeth
and stays. Old ways of brushing have
left much of it intact. So millions have
found that well-brushed teeth discol
ored and decayed.
Film absorbs stains, making the teeth
look dingy. It is the basis of tartar. It
holds food substance which ferments
and forms acid. It holds the acid in con
tact with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. They,
with tartar, are the chief cause of pyor
rhea. Very few people, however care
ful, have escaped these film-caused
troubles.
Now ways to combat it
Dental science has now found effi
cient film combatants. High authori
ties have proved this by many careful
tests. Now leading dentists everywhere
advise their daily application.
The methods are combined in a den
tifrice called Pepsodent. The results
they bring are quick and apparent. And
this ten-day test, at your command, will
show you what they mean.
Pepsodent attacks the film in two
efficient ways. Then it keeps the teeth
so highly polished that film cannot
easily adhere.
These five ways
Elach use of Pepsodent brings
these five effects:
1 A two-fold attack on film.
2 Well-polished teeth.
3 A multiplied salivary flow.
4 Multiplied starch digestant in tho
saliva, to digest starch deposits that
ding.
5 Multiplied alkalinity of the saliva,
to neutralize the acids which cause
tooth decay.
Other desired effects
Pepsodent also aids Nature in its
teeth-protecting efforts. It multiplies
the salivary flow, the constant tooth
protector. It multiplies the starch di-
Delightful results
appear quickly
Some results of Pepsodent are in--stant.
The very first use reveals some
of the benefits. Within a week the de
lightful results can be usually seen in
the mirror.
Send the coupon for the 10-Day
Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel
after using. Mark the absence of the
viscous film. See how teeth whiten as
the film-coat disappears.
The book we send will tell the reason
for each new result. You will know
how natural and how necessary are the
effects. You will see and feel that teeth
are cleaned far better than before.
These are the methods science now
advises. Make this ten-day test.
