: Mission Bell Visits Salem Bell from Mission San Antonio

of Knlghti of Columbui in Portland was received here Sun

Historic Mission Bell Met
In Salem by Local Knights
A mission bell dated 1771 from Mission San Antonio de Padua,
founded 180 yean ago by Fra Junipero Serra, passed through
Salem Sunday afternoon and was received on the statehouse
porch by Rev. George L. O'Keefe, pastor of St. Vincent DePaul,
in behalf of Mayor R. L. Elfstrom.
San Antonio de Padua, larg
est of the 21 adobe missions
along El Camino Real and most
successful in respect to numer
ous converts, was founded by
brown-robed Franciscans just
before the Revolutionary war.
Here in the foothills of the
Santa Lucia mountains, and at
the end of the Valley of the
Oaks, Fra Junipero hung a bell
in a tree and expressed confi
dence and faith when chided
about missionary effort in the
remote and desolate regipn.
When he sounded the bell and
Indians appeared and upon this
reassurance the mission was
founded.
Just when the mission bell,
enroute to the Knights of Co
lumbus' national convention in
Portland, was cast is not clearly
indicated. Presumably it once
belonged to Russians who, in
the early decades of the 19th
century, carried on an extensive
fur trade from Orgeon south
ward to Cape San Lucas. Fort
Ross was the center of this trade
in sea otter and seal pelts.
Accompanying the bell and
working in behalf of more ex
tensive restorations for Mission
San Antonio de Padua were
Judge C. S. Sorensen of Sali
nas and John Walsh, custodian,
of Carmel.
'K Ration Idea for GIs
Found to Be 2000 Years Old
Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) Those ex-GI's who like to get together
and gripe about the "K" ration might be glad to hear that more
than 2,000 years ago Greek soldiers ate their own version of a
"K," a mere pill for use in cities
under siege.
This primitive K" ration is
mentioned in the works of
Philon of Byzantium, a cele
brated army engineer about 150
B.C., and was described by Dr.
Pan S. Codellas, of the Univer
sity of California medical
school, at a lecture.
The pill was made up of thin-
sliced pieces of squill, a bulb
which was used as a cardiac
stimulant and expectorant; sesa
me, and one - fifteenth opium
poppy. After those ingredients
had been pounded into a mortar,
the mixture was kneaded with
honey, then divided into pieces
the size of olives.
"If one of these morsels is
consumed around the second
hour (about 8 a.m.) and another
around the 10th hour (4 p.m.)
no serious suffering will result
from want of food," wrote' Philon."
Codellas commented that the
Greek "K" ration commands re
spect from a nutritional and util
itarian point of view The honey
provided carbohydrate; protein
was derived from sesame; the
scilla, or squill, a bulb of medi
cinal use in ages past before dig
italis, was a general and heart
stimulant, and opium deadened
the hunger pains of the stomach.
Philon also advocated the
planting of "victory gardens" in
peacetime against the day cities
might be besieged. Such vic
tory gardens would be com
posed of fig and palm trees if
the climate were suitable, and
squash, lettuce, cabbage and
other vegetables.

Record Grain Harvest
Stored at Monmouth
Monmouth The Monmouth
cooperative warehouse, with a
enlarged force of workers, is
storing away a record harvest
of grain. Two barns on the
Edwards' place and space rented
from a transfer company in In
dependence have been put to
use and now the warehouse is
turning again to available space
in buildings on what was Camp
Adair.
A new airblast car loading
equipment has been purchased
and is being installed in the In
dependence branch of the ware
house. This is designed to speed
up the transfer of grain which
is shipped. (
This year's acreage shows a
large increase.
Hoover Wins
Cheers in N. Y.
New York, Aug. 15 m For
mer President Herbert Hoover
drew applause and cheers from
a crowd at Grand Central ter
minal when he arrived today
from Chicago on the Twentieth
Century limited.
Hoover, now 75, went direct
ly to his suite at the Waldorf
Astoria. He said there was
"much ado about nothing" over
the gall bladder disturbance he
suffered on the train from California.
The ex-president whiled away
the hours on the trip playing
gin rummy wtih his secretary,
Miss Bernice Miller.
Hoover plans to spend a good
part of the next year in New
York, helping to put into ef
fect the recommendations of his
committee on reorganizing the
executive branch of the govern
ment.
Winner Competing against
some 1000 other top California-designed
styles is this dra
matic black velveteen skirt
with its appliqued flower trim
on the pocket. The skirt was
given a Gold Medal award In
the California State fair's
competition. Winning styles
will be presented at a fash

ater during the state fair,
September 1-11, at Sacramen

Fluoride Treatment
Proves Scientific
Scientific research of the ef
fectiveness of fluoride treat
ments for teeth has been estab
lished and now a western phar
macist makes it possible to apply
the vital fluorine in the daily
care of teeth!
This marks the first time that
fluorine has been used in
dental product, and the phar
macist chalks up another lra
portant "first" by combining
fluorine and ammonium-ion in
the dentifrice. The florine am
monium-ion chemical compound
has been termed "Floro-Ammon-
ium-Carbamate." The fluorine
factor has been hailed by many
as the most important method
for retarding tooth decay, and
also helpful in maintaining cal
cium deposits in the enamel
The paste is found to be not only
health-giving but refreshing to
use.
The new product, which is
called Floradent, also contains
other therapeutical ingredients
including "Laurdolate" help
ful in removing even- the most
difficult cases of tartar. Even
dispersion of all of the ingredi
ents throughout the paste
made possible by a special pro
cess.
