Mrs. P. M. Schweizer 4&nd daugh
ters, Annetta and Ilia are home
from a trip to Indianapolis, Ind.,
iand way points. Schweizer, retir
ing president of the Oregon Rural
Mail Carriers navnHntlnn wont to
Indianapolis as delegate to the
National Kural carriers" conven
tion from Oregon. They - report
finding extremely hot weather in
the midwest, which caused them
to long for our moderate Oregon
temperature. -
Miss Annetta Schweizer reports
mat to convince eastern ana mid
west people of the fact that west
ern Oregon's ' temnerature seldom
rises above 98 degree and we all
swelter when it-does occasionally
, go that high, was a feat of super
linm&n achievement. It sounded
. too good to be true, when, quoted
in that terrific heat. oik who naa
been in Oregon frank I v Inn red for
another taste of its refreshing
coolness and color. A Nebraska
woman, - being informed by - the
Schweizers that they had come to
the convention from Ore eon' ask
ed: "Why did you ever leave
home for this?
Drive Through Washington
Leaving Monmouth Aug. 8, the
Schweizers drove north to Seattle,
and across northern Washington
. to Snokane. then across Idaho
Montana to the Dakotas. down to
Iowa, through Illinois to Chica
go. They occupied campround cab
inn en route:- and found those in
the west to -be uniformly clean,
Mntnned and comfortable.
In the Mississippi river area camp
accommodations were meager and
inadequate 1n almost every place
they stopped. '.
About 8,000 persons were in at
tendance at the national conven
tion, and interspersed with bus
iness were many delightful social
,f unctions including dancing in In
diananolis. most famous ballroom.
The two measures passed on at
the convention, which were most
- discussed, and of greatest general
interest.- Schweizer says, were:
widows' annuity, which would
provide a $50 per month pension
- for thn widow of any nostal em-
ninvA of rural" mall carrier. This
will be Introduced into congress, at
Its next session. In a talk at the
convention, Postmaster-G e n e ral
HavD ARHured the delegation of a
reasonable expectation that the
b:ll will be passed. 7
Consider Short Routes
The second measure concerned
rural carriers on short heavy
routes. These carriers have short
routes, oi pernaps -v ihuco,
Inr nut or cities, such as Port
land, where in a very short dis
tance they serve a very large num
her of natrons. Formerly they
have been paid by the mile like
other rural carriers. Effort was
concentrated on getting a change
in the method of payment to more
riennatplv r'econmense them.
Carrying folders advertising the
Oregon Caves, Crater Lake, Mt.
Hnnd. Columbia river highway
and "other points of interest, the
Schweitzers boosted ior uregou
in 1939" as a meeting place for
the national convention. While
the rural carriers, in person, were
highly interested in going to Ore
gon, some dissension was express
ed because Oreeon is not centrally
located among the states, hence
.delegates' expenses--paid by their
-state associations would be con-
siderably higher. - :

All Dentists advertise in some .
manner and they all believe in it
whether or not they will admit it.
One class contacts their patrons by
attending Lodges. Churches, Social
Functions, Political Meetings, free
newspaper announcements, etc.
A great" many of .this class would
like to use paid advertising space in
the papers, etc., but are too tight to
do so and some fear chastisement
by their Dental friends.: This class -of
advertisers doesn't consider their
methods of contact advertising, and
therefore strive to control the ad
vertising methods of all other class
es of Dental advertising. They try to
dominate the whole profession so far
as advertising methods are con
cerned. ' I ' ' "
There will be a proposed amend
ment to the before mentioned law
onsthe ballot next November. Then
the public may vote out this unfair
law; unfair to the people as well as
the enterprising Dentists. Until then
I must be content to quote prices at
my office or over the telephone.
