The evening was spent playing games, making taffy and listening in on the radio, until midnight when the young people bid the old year farewell and wel corned in the new by going to the school house and ringing the old school bell, which awoke the town from its peaceful slumbers, and to the fact that old Father Time had just completed his duties of 1931 and was passing on.

Mr. Adams took them as far as Heppner. UNCLE SAM HAS KEY TO MONEY SITUATION (Continued from First Page.) measured in dollars. One effect of this is to stimulate purchases by the United States from those coun tries. Foreign goods are cheaper in dollars than they have been at any time since the great European slump that followed the war. If the rest of the world can induce us to buy enough of their commodities and pay them in gold, they can speedily return to the gold stand ard. But in the present condition of business in the United States we are importing fewer commodities than for many years past. Some economic authorities do not believe that it is possible for th whole world to continue to main tain the gold standard, and there is a strong movement toward some kind of a new International agree ment which would make a limited proportion of silver equal to gold as a monetary standard. They want to serve the double purpose of put ting up the price of silver, which is now around thirty cents an ounce, and has been in the past as high as $1.30, and of increasing the metallic reserves against cur rency. There are great areas with enor mous populations that have no use for gold. India, with its three hun dred millions of people, was forced to the gold standard in 1926 by the British government, but the people of India still prefer silver to gold, The average worker in India sel dom accumulates enough surplus to invest It In even the smallest gold coin. The Hindu has no use for paper money, because he has no safe place in which to keep it. He wants to store up his wealth in the form of silver ornaments, bracelets and bangles which are often merely Bmall coins pierced with holes, so that he can carry It with him all the time. Everybody who reads the news papers or listens over the radio la going to hear a lot of discussion of this gold and silver problem in the next few months. In the meantime, it is well to keep in mind that one of the reasons why It is Important is that all of the war debts owing to the United States from Europe, as well as all of the private debts owed by foreign business to Ameri can bankers and merchants, are payable In United States gold dol lars, and the rest of the world is very eagerly trying to find some way either to make It easier for them to get gold dollars or to re duce the value of the United States dollar. There is not the slightest chance, however, of the United States going off the gold standard, as conditions stand today. ABOUT 2H0ME By JESSICA E. PALMITEB Home Economics Instructor : Heppner High School : UlltlUUIIIHimHIIHIIHMIIHIHMHIMIIIIIIUIIHIIIIHIIIIIflA Rubies of the- Kitchen Cranberries. The Christmas holidays are over the last bite of turkey has disap peared. Tinsel and bells have been packed away for another year, and with them have gone many annual food customs such as plum pud ding, roast turkey and other good ies. But I'm wondering about those valuable little round gems of the cuisine the cranberry has it too been put out of the dietary until next Christmas? I hope not Cranberries are a distinct aid in adding color and flavor to mid-win ter menus which need to be kept bright and interesting. Then, too, they are an excellent source of min erals which we must consume daily. Iodine, which prevents goiter, is found In rich quantity, and iron, which helps to keep us from be coming anemic, and also calcium, which helps to stabilize the body, are also found. There is another reason for us ing lots of cranberries this year and that is the prevailing low prices due to the bumper crop. Cranberry relishes will be economical addi tions to the diet as well as appetite stimulators. Because of their acid content they are an excellent accompani ment for meat Cranberry Conserve. 1 qt. cranberries. 1 c. raisins. 1 c. water.

Achievements of Patience "Be ye also patient." James 5-8. "Patience is genius," said Buffon. 'With time and patience, the mul berry leaf becomes satin," says a Chinese proverb. "The world is his who has patience," says an old Italian proverb. Hard pounding, gentlemen, but we will see who can pound the longest," said Welling ton at Waterloo. Cyrus Field toiled with ceaseless patience for thirteen years, and that in the face of the most diffi cult and discouraging circum stances, before the Atlantic .cable was laid. Mr. Edison's phonograph, we are told, long refused to say the word "special." It dropped the letter "s" and would only say "pecial." Mr. Edison worked for seven months to make that phonograph utter that sound. "BE YE ALSO PA TIENT!" It is only by the exer cise of patience that aynthing worth while is ever achieved. Some years back the great steam ship Umbria was stopped in mid Atlantic by a flaw in her crank shaft A small thing but enough to stop the great steamer. The main shaft of a man's life is purpose; and the flaw in it is the lack of patience. To many it may seem a small thing, but it has caused many to stop short of their goal. No matter what other qual ities a man may possess, if he lacks patience he will never win any very great . success in anything. The history of great success is largely a history of the achievements of patience. Begin this New Year by coming to Bible School and Church.

In many communicable diseases the infectious agent is found in the nasal secretions of the victim who acquired the infection by indirect contact with someone else suffer ing from the disease. Infection can be avoided by giving a wide berth to those who are suffering with ex cess nasal discharges and are sneezing and coughing. Avoiding infection, however, is not an easy thing to do. During the cold sea son of the year, infections are very prevalent and a large number of patients are walking abroad In the land because they do not consider themselves sufficiently ill to stay at home. Unless they exercise great care the infection is spread to in nocent by-standers by unguarded sneezing and coughing. The hands of a person with nasal infection are practically sure to be infected from his nasal secretions, and the infection will be conveyed to arti cles he handles and to other hands which he touches. It is therefore apparent that it is almost impossi ble to avoid infection by direct or indirect contact with infection un less people who have colds or other respiratory infections are willing to take measures for the protection of their fellows. Frequent hand washing by indi viduals who suffer from colds, na sal and respiratory infections would have considerable effect in preventing the spread of the infec tion. The hands are always con taminated with bacteria. Because of the varying uses to which the hands are put, and the nature and condition of the objects handled the hands are always more or less dir ty. So long as the skin is not bro ken, these bacteria cause no dis turbance if they are not transferred to the mouth, nose, or to any open ing in the skin. Nothing should be put into the mouth except clean food and clean drink. If the hands are always washed . carefully be fore eating or handling food and if the fingers are carefully kept out of the mouth and nose and the body is not scratched with the nails, the bacteria and other dirt that accu mulates on the hands may be con sidered harmless. The hands should be carefully washed with soap and warm water. Mrs. George Thomson INSURANCE SPECIALIST New York Life Phone 824 Heppner, Ore. Shell Fish AND Oysters ON OUR MENU DAILY afford a delicately appetizing change for your diet. Prepared to your order the way you like them. MEALS AT ALL HOURS ELKHORN RESTAURANT ED CHTNN, Prop. The nails should be thoroughly cleaned and the hands scrubbed with a moderately stiff brush. The hands are really very tough and may stand a great deal af scrub bing. A scrubbing brush, warm water and soap are essential. The brush should not be too stiff or too soft and should be sunned frequent ly in the open air. The hands will not chap if the soap Is well rinsed off and the skin not exposed to cold air until perfectly dry. The hands should always be washed af ter going to toilet The hands should be kept as clean as possible and then kept away from the eas ily i nfected parts of the body. Hand-to-mouth infections should be remembered and the hands washed before eating or the hand ling of foods. Grants Pass The turkey popula tion of Josephine county has in- SAVE!
