CHINA PLACE MEAT TAKES OF VENISON M ANY of Heppner'f sportsmen having returned from the timber with their quota of deer meat, they are today dragging out their shotguns, rubbing off the auramer coating of preservative grease and hitting for the aage brush and wheat and alfalfa fields.

China meat will be the lead er on the menu at many local ta bles for a week.

HEALTH This is the accepted name of a con tagious disease and is one that can be communicated by one person to another either by contact with dis eased persons or through water, milk, air, clothes or any other intermediary agent whatsoever, and that may be the cause of death. "Should every citizen be able to rec ognize diseases? Only in a general way. He should know the common signs, but he should never attempt to diagnose or treat. Diagnosis and treatment require ex pert knowledge. What should one do when suspic ious symptoms appear? Call in an expert on diseases. Prompt treatment may prevent a long illness. What are the main dangerous com municable diseases jn the State of Oregon? Diphtheria, measles, scarlet fever, smallpox, typhoid fever, tuberculosis and whooping cough. Which of these diseases are entire ly preventable? Smallpox, diphtheria and typhoid fever. Smallpox can be prevented by vaccination repeated every 6 to 7 years. Diphtheria can be prevented by immunization with toxin-antitoxin. Typhoid fever can be prevented by sanitation and inoculation with anti-typhoid vaccine repeated every three years. How can we attempt fb prevent the others? By prompt isolation of the individ ual showing suspicious symptoms and by taking every precaution against exposure. What should a physician or house holder do when a case of dangerous communicable disease occurs under his chnrge? Report it to the health officer Im mediately. What is the duty of the health of ficer? Investigate the case if nec senary, placard the premises, enforce quar antine and report to the Oregon State Board of Health, ROAD GROUP WILL MEET AT PINE CITY NEXT SUNDAY P. M. Closing of Caps in Butter Creek District Is Topic; Many Will Attend. A meeting- of the Butter Creek Highway association will be called promptly at 3 p. m. Sunday, October 18, at Pine City, according to a bul letin issued this week by J. Perry Conder, president. The object of the meeting will be discussion of lo cal road problems, with the imme diate view of finishing the macadam from Pine City to Lena, and a dis cussion of good roads in general, says Mr. Conder, who states also that this meeting haa the good will of the county courts of Morrow and Uma tilla countiea. Following is the program to be car ried out aa nearly aa possible.

"The Big Butter Creek End of the Road," Vinson and Gurdane. "Our Contribution," Alpine. the Lexington-Jarmon Eoad," Lex ington. "Closing of the Gaps," Heppner Com mercial Club. "Last But Not Least," Pendleton Com mercial Association. The county courts, forestry men, the state market road department, have all been invited to have repre sentatives present and speak. The county roadmaster at Morrow county, W. L. McCaleb, has consented to lead this discussion. Perhaps no one knows more of the road situation than the fellow who tramps over the road and surrounding country with a surveying crew and outfit and then has the responsibility of directing the construction of these mountain trails and roads, saya Mr. Conder. If the time allows after these dis cussions, there will be a set of lan tern slides and pictures showing by way of contrast, a few bad roads, but dealing mostly with good roads, their blessings to society and how to make them. The lantern slides are fur nished by the extension division of the University of Oregon. The reports of committees, resolu tions and business session will be very Bhort. These meetings, from the very first, have been educational and inspirational and this one should be no exception, Mr. Conder states. F. M. Broady, formerly residing near Morgan in this county, is here this week from his home at Wallowa, Oregon, looking after businesa Inter ests.

Shedd yesterday signed his name to an agreement under which he will supply $2,000,000 to build the world's largest aquarium, in Grant Park. Thus, all over the United States, men that have worked hard all their lives, and built up fortunes with the help of the people, give back the money to the people among whom they earned it. Mr. Shedd's gift of a great aquar ium is money well spent. It will In crease the supply of public informa tion. If to the exhibition of strange crea tures of the oceafts and lakes the John G. Shedd gift could include some plan for economical distribu tion among the people of the food that comes from the ocean, that would add to the value of tho gift. A plan to get rid of sharks that destroy billions of valuable fish every year, and the small, savage whales that prey upon the great schools of salmon in the Northwest would be worth millions in increased food value. Farmers are encouraged by news that makers of artificial silk will re quire great quantities of medium grade wool, to mix with wool fibre. The trade in artificial silk is des tined to be enormous. If the farmer raising and shearing sheep can com pete with Asiatics, raising silk worms, he may enjoy a new kind of prosperity. This nation needs an air force con trolled by men that understand Hying, men that are interested in the differ ence between an all metal monoplane and a weak cloth made biplane, more than in neat uniforms, or servile sa luting. Providence taking care of the birds, put in charge of them the brains of birds, not the brains of rabbits or turtles. Why should this nation, depending for its safety in war, upon flying ma chines and flying men, put the na tion's flying department tnder the control of human rabbits from the navy or turtles from the army? Not far from the train on which this is written is Arkansas City, Kan., there lives a dog, name unknown, and all the rest of his life that dog will believe in miracles. His owner, piobably dead by this time, was Warren Hardy, man of quick temper. Seizing his shotgun by the end of the barrel. Hardy hit the dog with the butt. Neither he nor the dog knew the gun was loaded. Hardy is in the hospital, and probably won't recover. All in one second the dog felt the blow, heard the explosion, saw his cruel master stretched on the ground. Knowing nothing about gunpowder, that dog will always believe in mir acles, and also in a special providence that avenges dogs, when they are hit with the butt end of a gun. It is foolish, however, to say the less you understand the more readily you believe in miracles. The radio is a genuine miracle of science, and it takes intelligence to understand it. A savage wouldn't un derstand it or believe in it. He would simply say "witchcraft and go his way. In old days, when the City of Paris, compared to modern Paris, was a small town, thousands died of small pox in a year. In the year just passed, there was no death from smallpox, and only three very mild cases. Paris enforces vaccination most strictly. Children in the primary schools, infants, 50,000 hospital pa tients, are some of those vaccinated. And in Paris smallpox doesn't ex ist.
