CAMP BULL PRAIRIE
By Our Camp Correspondent.
Harvey Tavro, our third base
man, Is now recovering from a
sprained ankle. He will be able to
play again this Sunday against the
Frog Heaven team.
And again our basebal team chal
lenges all comers! Arrangements
for games can be made through
Mr. Sanders, the general clerk of
Camp Bull Prairie.
Embarrassing moments: While
enroute to Baker the boys ate Cap
tain barker's sandwiches by mis
take. Was his face red?
Eventually Captain Wehle was
acquitted by a court martial after
the boys of Camp Bull Prairie tes
tided in his favor.
The mess hall was opened Wed
nesday, July 12. Ice cream was a
treat for the boys that evening.
Your correspondent noticed that
Louis Goodman and Hymie Blum
berg, the two camp gold-brickers,
suddenly awoke and showed plenty
of speed in obtaining a portion of
tnat delicious ice cream.
Norman Minnick, one of the Pen
dleton boys, was caught sleeping in
tne same bed with a bull snake,
And Anally, Russ Wright, one of
the local boys, got an idea he was
sergeant of the guard Sunday
nignt. He appointed Jack Casteel
as his corporal, and they proceed
ed to police the tents to make sure
that everybody was properly tuck
ed in and unclothed. After step
ping into the tent in which the lo
cal boys sleep, they suddenly awoke
after being doused with a bucket
of water. What a nite!
Several visitors on Sunday last
took advantage of the invitation
that had been extended to them
through the courtesy of the Hepp
ner Gazette Times. Consequently.
this item has been prepared chiefly
ior uie Denent or those who will
come to see the camp and have a
good time.
Captain Hugh C. Parker. Lieut
August Zaccor, and Lieut. Gar
richt have full charge of the camp
and its activities. They are re
sponsible for the administration,,
a: . .... 7
iceuing, nousing, sanitation and
medical care of the boys
On the other hand, W. E. O. Cri
ger, camp superintendent, has full
charge of the work projects. He
is ably assisted by Mr. Davis, the
senior foreman and fire chief of
the camp. They are responsible
tor tne designating, designing and
supervising of the work. All these
projects are directy in charge of
trained loresters and skilled woods
men who act as supervisors.
The work of the boys will con
sist mainly in the construction and
maintenance of forest protection
improvements. They include 40
miles of new truck trails to aid in
the transportation of men and
equipment to forest fires. And in
addition to this number 40 miles
will be maintained.
The telephone crew will recon
struct about 30 miles of woods tel
ephone lines to speed up forest fire
communication, and remove them
to the roads; about 68 miles of drift
or stock fence will be built; some
springs will be recovered; steel and
wood lookout towers to aid in the
detection of forest fires will like
wise be constructed, in addition to
improvement work at ranger and
guard stations.
In addition to all these improve
ments there will be jobs such as the
cruising of 50,000 acres, as well as
the destroying of rodents in a large
area, and control work in bug-infested
areas.
Finally, since fire hazards con
sist of various things, every camp
visitor is urged by Mr. Criger to
follow posted rules carefully. They
are as follows:
1. Do not smoke' while traveling.
2. Always carry a bucket, shovel
and axe when camping.
3. Get a permit from the forest
guard before making a camp Are.
4. Always make sure your camp
fire is completely out before leav

W. C. T. U. NOTES
MART A. NOTSON. Reporter.
On Friday, July 21, the voters of
Oregon will vote upon several very
Important measures. Every voter
should strive to make up his or her
mind and vote conscientiously up
on each measure. Among the
measures to be voted upon are the
proposed 21st amendment to the
United States constitution and the
amendment to the state consitutlon
repealing the prohibition amend
ments. If you vote for either of the pro
posed amendments on the ballot,
you are voting against prohibition,
for both amendments on the ballot
are for repeal of prohibition.
Hence, If you desire to sustain na
tional prohibition and preserve the
lHh amendment, vote 301 X No. I
vote against the proposed amend
ment. If you wish to vote to sus
tain the state prohibition amend
ments, vote 315 X No. I vote
against the repeal of the law.
The repeallsts are not offering a
thing to take the place of prohibi
tion. They can not agree among
themselves. The people who ex
pect to make money out of the
liquor business are not concerned
about what may take the place of I
yiuuiuiuon ii it is repealed. They
will take care of that later, you
may be sure.
Remember that the only argu
ments offered by the wets are
these:' Repeal will promote tem
perance, reduce crime, and provide
revenue to finance the government
No thoughtful person believes for
a moment that making It easier to
obtain liquor will promote temper
ance. As to reducing crime, why
Is it that the records disclose that
major crimes have steadily increas
ed in number In Great Britain
since the close of the war, notwith
standing that liquor is sold every
where and it is acknowledged that
they have a most excellent system
of law enforcement? It is not true
that crime will be reduced. The
record of other wet counties
agrees with that of Great Britain.
Repeal will, no doubt result in in
creased revenue from liquor sales.
But who will pay it? The greater
part will be paid by the poor fel
lows who are not able to pay it,
and helpless women and little chil
dren will suffer because fathers
spend their money for liquor. Ev
eryone who has a memory which
goes back twenty years knows this
is true. And it is the rich who will
be relieved of taxes by this system.
The only other argument used by
the wets is that the law can not be
enforced. To acknowledge that
point is to admit that government
by the people is a failure; that it
was a mistake to spend all the
treasure and blood to establish and
maintain government by the peo
ple, which has been so spent. Do
not take such an, unpatriotic stand.
And do lot surrender because the
crowd may seem to be going the
other way just now. Remember
that the first battle of the Marne
did not settle the World War.
Remember that to vote dry, you
should vote 301 X No and 315 X No.
Also, remember to stand for "God
and Home and Native Land."
The Washington correspondent
for the Oregonian says that the
greater part of the beer being sold
upon the market now contains only
about 2 per cent of alcohol. The
prohibition enforcement officers of
this section of the country report
that this is true of nearly all of the
American made beer sold in this
part of the country. This shows
the dishonesty and trickery of the
brewers. They are afraid that, if
the 3.2 beer were sold In the open
markets in quantity, the results
would bring on a reaction which
would defeat repeal. They know
that 3.2 beer is intoxicating. They
are trying to deceive the public by
this trick.
When the Collier bill was before
congress, Senator Blaine claimed
that the Central Control Board of
Great Britain had reported, after
exhaustive inquiry, that liquor
containing 3.05 per cent by weight
was not intoxicating. Now, the
facts are that the British Govern
ment holds that drinks "which con
tain more than, two per cent of
proof spirit" are intoxicating. And
"proof spirit" is a mixture contain
ing 49.28 per cent of alcohol by
weight. Hence, it appears that
drinks which contain only two per
cent of "proof spirit," in fact con
tain less than one per cent of al
cohol. This shows the type of lies
used by the forces seeking to re
peal prohibition.
The Central Board reports that
of 1032 cases of drunkenness in
vestigated in England in a period
of three weeks, 45.4 per cent were
attributed to beer alone, and that
outside of London 50 per cent of
the beer consumed in England and
Wales averages less than 3.09 per
cent by weight of alcohol. The
average of all beers used in Eng
land ana Wales is under 3.7 by
weignt.
One of our leading dailies de.
plores the fact that the chances of
a drunken driver to escape punish
ment in cases appealed is six to
one. This is startling, but It is
true. It might appear on the face
of the facts that the law against
arunnen driving can not be en
forced. Following the big and only
argument tor the repeal of prohi
bition, why does not someone pro
pose to repeal the law againt
aruniten driving? If we are con
sistent, that is the natural thing
lu uo. iet someone propose such
a procedure, and the howl that
would go up would be loud and
long.
However, it is not the driver who
is visibly drunk who Is the most
dangerous. It is the one whose
"reaction time" is slowed down
slightly. The American Medical
Journal published an article from
its British correspondent which
stated that motor accidents are
increasing in England and that the
medical authorities are making a
new stuoy of the "reaction time"
of those who drink. -Thev have
found that a single glass of whis-
Key or a pint of beer may slow this
down from two to four times be
tween the time the image appears
on tne retina of the eye and the
response of the hand. Does any
one beleive that making it easier
io oDtain intoxicating liquor will
reduce the number of persons who
may come under this 'class of driv
ers.' Certainly not. Vote: 301 X
wo, and 315 X No.

ministration officials believe that
accurate estimates can be made.
These figures turned in by each
farmer are to be published In the
local press. This is intended to

benefits under the new wheat plan,
unauthorized promoters are al
ready appearing and trying to
"chisel in" on the farmers' expect

Students at 0. S. C. Cut
Social Costs in Half
Corvallis Students at Oregon
State college cut their social costs
more than in half last year without
sacrificing anything essential in in
teresting and wholesome social life,
according to the annual report on
such costs made by Dr. U. G. Du
bach, dean of men.
Members of the 57 fraternities,
sororities and other living groups
spent only a total of $5612.21 com
pared with $13,251.61 the year pre
vious for social events given by
their organizations. The average
cost per member was only $3.18 for
the year, compared with $5.58 for
the year previous and $7.15 two
years ago.
Dr. Dubach reports that students
used their Ingenuity and initiative
in giving excellent parties at low
cost. His office encouraged holding
many events so as to provide rec
reation for ail on the campus rath
er than depending on more expen
sive commercial amusements.
There may be no relationship,
but the fact is that the students
made this low-cost social record
the same year that their scholastic
average mounted to a new high
point.
"I have bat one wish, that the gov
ernment of this country may some
time aspire to be as well managed
for the interests of the people as the
Insurance oompanies are for the in
terests of their policy holders."
