It has been suggested on the part
of several principals that a county
High school basketball league be or
ganized, In which case it appears
that It would fittingly come under

The principals and coaches present
might wish to make out a season's

spondence.' It is suggested that a
pennant be awarded the winning
basketball team of the county.

Senator Steiwer Favors
X-Mas Seals Sale
Each Soal Carries A Little Help
Toward Stamping Out The
Dread Disease
Senator Frederick Steiwer stopped
long enough in the preparations for
the congressional session to writs
the following letter which was re
leased today by the Oregon Tuber
culosis Assn:
"I have noted that you are again
undertaking the sale of Christmas
seala for the purpose of financing
the future health work carried on by
your association.
"The only thing that mitigates the
curse of tuberculosis is that it yields
to treatment The fight against tu
berculosis is one that invites the best
effort because past history shows
that such a fight can, bring definite
results in saving of human life and
promotion of human happiness.
"I elncercly wish you the greatest
success in the annual sale of Christ
mas seals and esteem it a privilege
to send this word of approval and
encouragement I hope that the ef
fort to stamp out the dread disease
of tuberculosis may be carried for
ward as it has been in the past"
i "Sincerely yours,
"Frederick Steiwer."
The senator's statement regarding
definite results is borne out by the
fact that the death toll from tuber
culosis has been cut in half since
the first Christmas seals were sold in
19071, and that the disease is decreas
ing year by year. It is still however
the most frequent cause of death
of young people between the ages of
; 15 tnd 40 years.

Dec. 15, 8:00 to 12:00
The Tillotson Motor company, as
agent for the Ford Motor company,
has already booked three orders for
the new car and expects to have sev
eral more to order before the wee'k
is out There will be a demonstra

Maupin next Thursday, December
15, at which time a car will be here
for Inspection, It being ready for the
public at 8:00 oclock in the morn
ing and remaining until noon.
An important item connected with
booking orders for the new Ford is
that deliveries will be made in the
order of booking. For instance: If
an order is booked at Portland at 10
o'clock and one in Portland at 10
80, the Maupin order will have pre
cedent over the other order.. It is
really a case of "first come, first
served," and will tend to obviate con
siderable delay in delivery of cars.
This is a point to remember, so if
you are in mind to purchase a new
Ford car it behooves you to get your
order in at the earliest possible mo
