THE MARINES ARE WINNING AGAIN
To win a war, battles must be won and it is well recognized
by now that these are by no means all between opposing forces
of men armed with deadly weapons. As we say this we are
thinking of a battle which is being fought to save lives ratner
We got dinner ready the next
Sunday, hoping for a miracle. No
one had come at 12 o'clock. At 1,
the oeonle in the White Steamer
called up from a farm house near
a sitin that announced the new

dinner was good, and they ate as
heartily as ever, but we knew,
somehow, that they would not be
back again.

Benjamin was to meet him that
night at the Junction. He had a
man with him, a man who was
coming to stay.

"Mr. Cutter ought to do that,"
we often complained when my
mother suggested some additional
chore. "He's got plenty of time."
"Now, now," she would say.
That meant "Enough from you."
But it provoked her a little too,
to come in and find him sleeping.
"Of course," she said, "II we were

are not merely improved ; they are cured.
Col; G. 0. Van Orden is in command at the Marine bar
racks. Capt. h. T. Coggeshall, U.S.N.R., is the ranking medical
officer and it is his theory of treatment that is being so suc
cessfully exemplified.
Because we have mentioned treatment, do not leap to the
conclusion that hospital buildings predominate at the Marine
barracks. They do not. Nor should you think of the Klamath
marines as patients. That would be not only false, but a
definite affront as well. There is a hospital building, but the
snace is larirelv taken up by laboratory facilities, X-ray equip
ment, special clinic rooms and so on. The beds are for those
suffering from the general run of ailments. Filariasis and
malaria cases, as we may have intimated, are handled in a
different manner. Incidentally, it's not treatment, it's train
ing. After three years of war in the Pacific, if we may digress
sliirhtlv. these diseases are all too familiar, but at the outset
of the war, malaria was virtually unknown in this state and

Electric Storm
Starts One Fire
At least one fire was started by
yesterday afternoon's electric
storm, it was reported today at
the headquarters of the Deschutes
national forest, as a lookout was
assigned to Lava Butte to deter
mine whether others were started.
Gail Baker, fire assistant in the
forest staff, reported that approxi
mately 25 electric strikes were
made in the area between Bend
and Lava Butte to the east.
Baker rode to the top of Pilot
butte last night and spotted the
one fire. Driving to a location
about midway between Bend and
Lava butte he found a snag afire.
With the assistance of Norman
Luckenbill, Baker extinguished
this blaze.
Fearing that others might have
been started, Baker assigned
Ralph Young to the Lava Butte
lookout station for a two-day vigil.

But such things needn't worry the veteran started on the
Klamath Marine barracks routine, lie continues his training
as a marine. Instead ot being hospitalized, he carries on and
so helps to break the cycle of the disease. A relatively great
altitude minimizes danger of reinfection. Exercise encourages
appetite, he gets plenty of the best blood-building food and
his blood, carries on the fight to a successful conclusion against
the disease-causing organisms which have invaded it.
Now and then there are tolerance tests, which might be
roughly described as endurance tests, such as long hikes under
full pack. The boys, will tell you these are "pretty rugged."
They show, the extent to which, the individual is being built up

making against the disease. He practices and competes' in

again assigned to a combat outfit.
