Disease germs are harmful and should be destroyed. Disease geruii make people sick and often cans them to die. These germs are abou us on every hand. They may be in the air, In our food, or in the water we drink. We can avoid disease germs by keeping things sanitary,' by fumiga tion, by destroying garbage piles, by keeping our bodies clean and healthy, and by destroying the germs that come from the bodies of the sick. ' Many diseases we get from germs are: Colds, tetanus, catarrh, in- fiuenzza, tonsillitis, bronchitis, dyp theria, whooping cough, chicken poxj scarlet fever, and measles. About the year 1800 vaccination began to be practiced and smallpox at once began to decline. Where it is thoroughly carried out, smallpox has almost ceased to exist but where people are not vaccinated very much it is still impossible to prevent the spread of disease germs. Vaccina tion is almost a perfect protection against smallpox germs. Edward Janner in 1797 discovered vaccination. Disease germs produce a toxin in' the body, the body works up an anti toxin to destroy the toxin and save i antitoxin from the blood of a horse, i When a person is attacked by dip- weria some or me antitoxin from a horse is injected into the body. This does not kill the dlptheria germs, but destroys their toxin and saves the cells from being poisoned until the body can kill out the germs, and stop the disease. It is very important that the antitoxin be given in the early stages of dlptheria,' for after the toxin has poisoned the cells of the nervous system, kidneys, and heart great damage has been done, and it is not possible to undo it. An titoxin is useful in all stages of the disease, however, and should always be used. It is also very useful in pre venting dlptheria and when a person has been exposed to the' germs a dose of antitoxin is often given to prevent the development of the disease: An antitoxin for Tetanus is pre pared from the blood of the horse but it has not proved very valuable in curing the disease except when used in the early stages and in large doses. It Is very valuable, however, in pre venting the disease and when a per son has received a wound that is like ly to bring on tetanus a dose of the antitoxin should be given. When this is done the disease is almost certain to be prevented. There wouldn't be half so many diseases if the people would destroy The HORN PASTIME VICTOR GROSHEN, Prop.

The public school of District No. 8 closed on the 18th. Mrs. Hayes, the teacher, has been retained by the school board, H. S. Ewing and John Nash, for a period of two years. A net has been placed in the creek at this place to intercept the body of of P. J. Habelt. M. V. Logan tmd his, brother Kenneth joined with the I. O. 0. F. order last Saturday in the search. It seems that Cecil is against the world when it comes to top prices for wool. Last week Herbie Hynd sold his clip of wool for 60 cents per pound. The fleece weighed just 15 pounds. Grandma Nash, after a number of weeks stay in Pendleton, returned home last week accompanied by Mrs. Frank Nash and her two children who will remain In Cecil for the summer. Jack Hynd, with Alfred Shaw and and his niece Louise went to Sand Hollow last week and from there Mr. Hynd went to La Grande on business, returning last Sunday. Miss Shaw remained at Sand Hollows The Cecil school, sessions of which have been held in the Cecil Hall, will close May 25th, but the school pro- am will be rendered on Saturday evening at 8:30 in the Hall. Every body is requested to be present. The public meeting for the conser vation of food was largely attended and all felt that our country was in volved in a world famine of food HoVever. this Bection has done its oart when acreage of grain is con- sidered and the climatic conditions still remain favorable. The local hop that was so success fully pulled off last Saturday in the Cecil Hall proved the greatest m at tendance and afforded more pleasure to those who participated than any former event. Outside of train and usual team service, some 30 cars did their share in bringing hither the happy people who so well contributed to the evening s success. ueorge u. Anderson and W. G. Palmateer were the floor managers and John H. Mil ler. Walter Pope and W. H. Grant the feed dispensers. The full or chestra of the Bowker people did not appear on this occasion as two of them were stranded while enroute from Madras overland to Cecil. It is now well known that Cecil is the favorite place for as oclal hop Wherefore the inference? The answer is found in hall equipment for light and ventilation, with a good floor, the best of music and a supply of eatables that meets the exigency of the hour. The proprietor, Mr. Lowe, has spared no expense in supplying the needed improvements in his hall. The Federated Church. Sunday school at 9:46. At 11:00 a. m.
