Eugene Register Gambling Circular ' Bait To Youngsters Using a gaily-colored picture and attractive tales talk as bait, a Chicago company li lending to ichool children in Eugene a card board punchboard, on which they are to aell chancea for prizes to their "friends, relatives, neigh bors and co-workers". Apparently the company has obtained a mailing list of school children, and is promoting its business through them. The bright literature (in red, white and blue), promises gifts absolutely free, with extra gifts for prompt ness, for "your cooperation in dis posing of this sales card." Chief of Police C. F. Bergman warns parents to be watching for the cards, which give a young ster a fine start for interest in punchboardf, slot machines and other gambling devices. The gay colors and bright promises are poor disguise for the fact that "you can't get something for nothing," say the chief.

When something happens on the University of Oregon cam pus that looks like there's "a beaver In the woodpile," why the Ducks naturally start look ing toward the college campus about 40 miles northward. This time, however, there really was a beaver in the woodpile and the trees on the north end of the university cam pus that were so nearly cut off were the work of a furry little vandal. So authorities are out to get tht culprit, dead or alive. Forts Bag 75 Jap Planes Over Tokyo WASHINGTON.

"There are not enough funds at the present time," Warlick said, "to meet an epidemic com parable to others In America in 1944."

Shriners- vCONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) barriers of race, creed or color. Dues Support It - I Out of each Shriner's annual dues, the sum of two dollars is taken for the national hospital fund, for apportionment to the 15 hospitals located throughout the United States, Canada and in Ha waii. Since few appeals can or should make so strong a pull on the heartstrings of a human being, Shrlners do not find H necessary to solicit funds sizable donations come in from time to time. How ever, the demand on the hospital continues to increase, and dona tions are accepted gratefully. Restricted to the care of ortho paedic cases, the hospital does not attempt to care for other patients, except where structural abnormal ities which will respond to treat ment have resulted. Largest part of the patients are victims of in fantile paralysis the drive for funds to combat this menace is on now. The staff maintains an out-patient treatment of .approximately 5000 children. ' A sunny, cheerful atmosphere envelopes the hospital. Its nurses. attendants and patients, in spite tt hard work and suffering, for they can see the unbelievable work that is being done.

In the Portland hospital's thoroughly -equipped laboratory, special appliances are made for the children, with variations for each case; appliances can help to ease the lot of a youngster so crip pled that he cannot be cured, as well as to speed others toward recovery.
