OTHER THAN WAR HEROES
. The Oregon Tuberculosis Associa
tion acquaints the state press with
tho frt that September 13th marked
the 76th anniversary of the birth of
Major Walter Reed, discoverer of
the cause of yellow fever and first
conqueror of the Aedes Aegypti mos
quito, carrier of the yellow fever
germ.
"While American school children
are very familiar with the war heroes
of their country's history, states the
association, little or nothing is taught
to them about American Health
Heroes who have offered their lives
in a war against disease germs. It
is only within the past year that the
heroic deeds of these American Pa
triots have been recorded in books
that are available for wide distribu
tion in the public schools. This work
has been done by the Metropolitan
Life Insurance company in a series of
24-page booklets entitled Health
Heroes. Thus far, four of these book
lets have been published and can be
had free of charge from the Portland
branch of the Metropolitan and also
from the office of the Oregon Tuber
culosis Association, 310 Fitzpatrick
block.
"The four that have appeared deal
with the lives and accomplishments
of Edward Jenner, originator of
smallpox vaccine, Edward Livingston
Trudeau, pioneer of the tuberculosis
sanatorium movement, Walter Reed,
mentioned above, and Louis Pasteur,
French bacteriologist. The first three
of these are native Americans, and
Pasteur was closely associated with
a number of American scientists of
the time.
"Walter Reed's work in proving
that the Aedes Aegypti mosquito was
the only carrier of yellow fever pav
ed the way for the work of General
W. C. Gorgas who freed the Canal
Zone from this pest and made pos
sible the building of the Canal."
o
Just why certain newspapers con
tinue to warp the Columbia Basin
project into power development of
the Columbia river, when not a drop
of the water of that river will ba
used should the proposed project
materialize, is past grasping,. The
Pendleton East Oreconian has
been practically alone in its fight to
secure the Umatilla Rapids project
the real power plant of the Colum
bia. And it has been giving the
true facts concerning both projects.
But for some reason or other the
harder the East Oregonian thrusts
home the truth, the more active be
come the basin propagandists.
o
The political pot is merrily Bimmer
ine down in Multnomah county,
where a congressional contest is on.
The democrats seem to be furnishing
most of the steam, but republicans
are carrying on, also. They propose
to interject Sandblast, a wet candid
ate into the race. To get back at
Watkins and West for blockading
nominations, dissatisfied democrats
may induce Bert Honey to run
against Watkins. Well it's a scrap
alright.
o
Apparently the Cascades have
claimed two more mortals zealous of
conquering their towering peaks.
Two youths from The Dalles have
disappeared on the storm-torn slopes
of the Three Sisters, and so far ex
perienced mountaineers have failed
to unravel the mystery surrounding
their disappearance.
"Lindy Land Here," was the mes
sage to Lindbergh in 20-foot letters
traced in lime on the Portland land
ing field. A good enough guide for
the intrepid flyer, but how do they
keep Jupe's sprinkler off the lime, is
what we would like to know,
o
A Medford aviator has tried the
experiment of sewing blue grass
ecd from his plane. Then what
is the matter with turning present
useless logged lands into pastures by
airplane-seeding them to grass?
o
No wonder the modern railroad
docs not make money. Financial
statistics reveal that to earn enough
to pay a track laborer for one day,
the company road must haul a ton
of freight 256 miles.
o
Some people worry because they
have no prunes, while others are wor
rying because they have prunes, and
once in a while we hear of somebody
being full of prunes.
o
It would appear that Great Britain
is desirous of disarmament, but she
wants all the other fellows to do tho
disarming first.
o
The fame of University of Oregon
has spread to India from whence will
come Mr. Sukh Dua Suigh, son of
Sultan Suigh, of Diut Ludhiana, Pun
jah, India, to matriculate at the
Oregon school. Suigh will be a long
ways from home, but he will find
Oregon well worth the trip.
o
Whether he "chooses" or not) Cal's
summer vacation is over and he is
back home in the White House at
Washington, D. C.
o
"Black bears behave badly, bite
beeves bellow busy biologists bruin
beats bug breakfast," reads a Port
land Telegram headline.
o
"Thanks for the Buggy Ride" is
one slang phrase that was coined too
late; "Thanks for the Flivver Glide"
would be more up to date.
o
In Chicago, where the thermometer
registered 91 Monday, it was hotter
than it was in Athena.
o
La Grande claims a population of
11,300. That's nothing, Seattle claims
more than that.
So far the rubber collapsible life
