TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1917
What have you done toduy to help
win the Avar? .
"ENTERPRISING."
What Is the difference between an
"enterprising little city" and an "en
ierprising little municipality"?
Think before you reply. Tbe ques
tion is serious. Once answered, how
ever, you have the difference between
Bend and Prineville. At least, this is
apparently the idea of an "enterpris
ing little reporter" on the Portland
Journal, for such is his characteriza
tion of the two towns in an article
appearing yesterday.
Says tbe "enterprising little
writer":
"Prineville is one of the livest and
most enterprising little municipalities
in the Deschutes country, having a
population of nearly 2000 people who
are thoroughly alive to the needs of
the day and the advantages of pro
gressive thought and action."
The reference to Bend comes earl
ier in the story, as follows:
"It is understood that some of the 1 en(iine
delegates to the Oregon Federation what enormoils numhpr n,
of Women's clubs, which is to hold tnfected thing8 we touch dur,g the
Did you ever make a diary ofyour
fingers? Did you ever set down In
cold black and white the things your
fingers touch every day and did you
ever consider the number of times
dally that your unwashed fingers seek
your mouth?
When surgeons discovered that It
was their own inrecteo lingers which
carried germs into wounds they set
about trving to discover a means
whereby their hands could bo ren
dered surgically clean. I: e., free from
germs. The whole realm ot chem
istry was ransacked for agents which
would disinfect hands, and the scrub
bings and Immersions to which they
subjected their hands are even yet
a tender memory to the surgeons of
that period. But all of these efforts
proved useless and at last in uospair
surgeons Itook to wearing rubber
gloves which could be boiled, thus
bringing to each patient, as it were.
a fresh pair of sterile hands. In oth
er words, try as you will you can't
by any method make your hands ab
solutely clean.
The great agent in the spread of
those diseases whose causative organ
ism is present in the secretions of
the mouth and nose, is the human
hand; and if saliva was bright green
we would be amazed at the color of
our fingers. As a maltter of fact, most
of us carry our fingers to our mouth j
or nose many times daily, there to (
implant the germs of disease which ;
other careless people have spread i
about, there to collect a fresh cargo
of infectious material to scatter for
somebody else.
It is true that most germs ot dis
ease die quickly once they leave the
human body, but what does the death
of a few billion germs matl:er so long
as the supply is copious and never
quite so careful.

its annual session this year in Prine
ville, October 22-25, are anxious to
take advantage of the occasion to
visit the enterprising little city of
Bend, and are inquiring if the ticket
privileges will enable them to do so
"Tbe Impression seems to prevail
In some places that tickets for the
federation will read through Bend.
This is in error, Redmond, 16 miles
this side of Bend, is the junction
point with auto stages for Prineville,
and return tickets, at one-third the
regular fare, must be purchased
there. The limit for the purchase,
however, is October 27, two days af
ter the federation meeting closes, so
that all who desire may return by
auto to Bend, and leave there at 7:25
a. m., October 27, paying the addi
tional local fare of 50 cents to Red
mond." Taking aside, here is a chance for
some local enterprise if we want the
visitors to see our "enterprising little
city."

THE CIRCUIT COURT.
In the session of the circuit court
which began here yesterday is seen .
the one result, not hitherto evidenced,
of the formation of Deschutes county
last year. For the first time attor
neys from nearby towns are gather
ing here, almost in a body, and tax
payers from ail over the county are
In town to serve on the juries.
That it means business for the
itown is clear enough. Twenty or 30
men in town will spend several times
that number of dollars a day and no
one should grudge it to Bend. Cir
cuit court terms must be held; tbe
money will be spent. lit is surely
'better that it is spent here than in
Prineville, as it would have been had
not the county been divided.
But the selfishly local is not the
chief advantage of holding court here.
The chief advantage is found in the
saving made possible to jurors, wit
nesses, attorneys, litigants everyone
-who has any business before the
court. With the court held here it is
possible for many who attend its ses
sions to get home occasionally, and
to look after their own business,
"which they could not do before.
That is a result of division which
1b distinctly worth while.

On account of the number of

to take orders for spring install

large orders that we are work

now about the work for this

With our experience in this
work, and the modern system
that we are using, it is possible
to do the work in a short time,
but we have to get the orders in
