NOTES. MARY A. NOTSON, Reporter. The wets who preach modification on one hand and no return of the saloon on the other, thus trying to befog the issue, are having a hard time of it They evidently discount the intelligence of the American people. Lincoln is sometimes cred ited with the saying, "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and you can fool all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." And the wets are finding that the part of the people they can fool all of the time is becoming smaller and smaller. Some of the wets loudly proclaim that the solution of the liquor ques tion is in permitting the manufac ture of beer containing 2.75 per cent of alcohol. They claim that such beer is in fact not intoxicating, hence it is entirely within the power of congress to modify the Volstead act so as to permit the manufacture of such beer without violating the 18th amendment since the amend ment is aimed at intoxicating liq- But, you will note that they WHERE DO YOU SWIM? From the State Board of Health. Swimming is unquestionably one of the most delightful and healthful of exercises and should be encour aged in every way. It not only provides a very enjoyable form of recreation but it might and often does, prove of very practical use. Where to swim should be given careful consideration. The Willam ette river below Cottage Grove for the greater part is polluted and swimming is not safe from a health standpoint There are hundreds of rivers and lakes throughout tne state, some near by and some far away, which are frequented by swimmers or bathers. The water in many of these is relatively safe, in others it is not Short of having a test of the water at the point in which you expect to swim and at a time when this body of water and its surrounding cottages and build ings are being used, there is no way of knowing definitely the purity of the water but there are a number of points of observation which will be helpful in determniing the prob able safety of a swimming place. 1. Always remember that a water is not safe to swim in unless it is safe to drink. 2. Don't place confidence in the appearance of the water. A water mav look perfectly clear and still be grossly polluted. 3. Pay particular attention to the location of the lake or stream and its drainage. What are the possi bilities of pollution from cottages? Are there streams running into the body of water in which you intend to swim, and if so do they contain water of known purity or may they be polluted by drainage from the territory through which they run? In addition to having safe water the swimmer should safeguard himself with respect to a number of other points. Pick-Up Ball Tossers Lose to Condon, 18-5 With but nine men in uniform, forming an aggregation the mem bers of which had never been to gether before in other words a pick-up team made necessary be cause of the absence of many regu lars at various celebration points, Heppner put up a bold face but suf fered a severe trouncing at Condon Sunday afternoon. The score was orobablv 18-5. but this is not given as authentic as the absence of the official tally books made it neces sary for the score to be kept on a rough piece of cardboard. The game lasted only seven in nines as the stands became weary of this type of entertainment, and exhibited a desire to witness tne wild horse bucking, scheduled as a part of the celebration program for the day. Pitcher Aune, though working nicely, was somewhat overworked for lack of support and Bobby Tur ner, shortstop, went into the box in the seventh. Fred Hoskins went in to receive him, having been on first and together they held the Condon boys nicely; With the exception of Aune and Turner, all the positions were occupied by strange faces. There were the two Palmer boys from Lexington, one of whom caught and the other played left field. Manager Ferguson was on second, "Doc" Shearer on third, Jap Crawford in right, and "Red" Doe his proper name was not learned in the middle pasture. Condon's regular bunch was in tact with the addition of Pete and Bud Fisk who are more familiar to fans in the Arlington uniform. "Kewpie" Clow was in the box for them.

Goodman from always speak of 2.75 per cent of al- his private sanctum down at the Hepp- cohol by weight The aicononc con- ner Garage.) tent of such beer is almost i.ou per cent by volume. It is estimated that three fourths to four fifths of the beer sold in the days of the licensed saloon contained only 3.50 per cent of alcohol by volume. And every body who can remember those days knows that men became intoxicated upon that kind of beer. If congress should modify the law so as to allow beer containing 2.75 per cent of alcohol by weight it would necessarily need to declare such beer non-intoxicating. If a liquor were declared non-intoxicating, there could be no regulation of its sale. It could be sold anywhere to anybody. Men, women, and chil dren could buy it just as they now buy a soda at the soft drink parlor. We would then have all the evils of the old beer saloon less the regula tion, such as it was in the days of tne licensed saloon. It is well to remember, also, that it was not the temperance "fanatics" who originated the idea that liquor containing one half of one per cent of alcohol by volume is intoxicating. That standard was written into the law at the request, or demand, of the brewers in the good old days. They were willing to pay a tax, pro vided that all drinks which con tained any appreciable quantity of alcohol were subject to the tax. They arrived at the dividing line between intoxicating liquor and non-intoxicating liquor at one half of one per cent by volume. So, when CARD OF THANKS.

Time waned and Nature proved not always provident A series of dry seasons; springs feeding the creek ceased to flow. Reservoir fa cilities were Inadequate to provide during these times. Then there were the autumn and spring rresnets which filled the water with silt, making it unpalatable. Additional reservoir space was provided. But still there remained the creek farm ers who desired the water for irri gation and who must be given con sideration: and the silt also re mained. What to do? More water must be had. To get more surface water a dam must be built That would be very expensive, and the silt must yet be taken from the water. A filtration plant would be a large item of expense to build and maintain. It was a grim lot of councilmen who with the mayor two years ago decided to drill a well, with a pray er in their hearts that the sugges tion of someone who thought an artesian flow possible, might be borne out. Imagine their joy- shared by the city's entire populace when news reached town the at- ternoon of Tuesday, April 22, that artesian water had been struck Flowing 700.000 gallons every 24 hours, the water has been proved pure, and the quantity found more than sufficient to supply tne city. Though the distributing system is not yet perfect, and the water may bring more troubles in the iuture, Heppner nevertheless rejoices in the improvement of her water supply Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Mahoney re turned the first of the week from a visit at Bonners Ferry, Idaho, for mer home of the family. July 10, 1930. HOWDY FOLKS It's a sad world mates.
