HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCT. 24, 1935. PAGE FIVE Red Cross Wars on Carelessness In Home or While at Work on Farm a f ' 'X. oL-i X - siy Left Farm Implements, carelessly cloth or paper are a dangerous fire THE American Red Cross is throw ing the -weight of its entire or ganization behind a continuing cam paign to combat the negligence and lack of knowledge in the home and on the farm which last year claimed nearly 40,000 lives and injured mil lions. According to safety experts most accidents can be prevented. Every Red Cross Chapter and Branch will play a part in this large-scale hu manitarian operation, and have mobilized to meet the challenge flung by negligence, according to Admiral Cary T. Grayson, Red Cross chairman. placed, cripple thousands each year. Upper Right Pressing irons left on hazard. Lower Incorrect handling of a knife may mean serious Injury. Through an Intensive educational program, the Red Cross will seek to explode the fallacy that the home is safe. Common and uncommon haz ards will he pointed out; individual families will be shown how these hazards may be eliminated and in struction will be given in the avoid ance of unsafe habits and practices apt to cause accidents. Preparations have been made to inspect more than 30,000,000 homes, the inspection to be conducted by home dwellers themselves. Through the cooperation of educational groups, the school child will take a specially prepared i jpeclion form into the home and Burvey it for haz ards with the help of parent or rela tive. Accidents in the homes of America kill more than 80 persons an hour each day, and run up a medical, nurs ing and insurance bill exceeding f 1,000 per minute. Farm work acci dents last year took more than 4,000 lives and maimed many perma nently. Accident prevention is a natural outgrowth of Red Cross instruction in first aid, a service initiated 25 years ago and responsible annually for saving many lives and prevent ing minor accidents from having major consequences. Higher Education Worth Told by New Chancellor University of Oregon, Eugene, October 22. Oregon's higher edu cational institutions represent an actual resource worth $100,000,000, from which the state is actually benefitting every year to the extent of at least $5,000,000, it was declared here Saturday night by Dr. Fred erick M. Hunter, chancellor of higher education, speaking before hundreds of "Oregon Dads" and their sons and daughters, at the ninth annual "Dad's Day" banquet held In John Straub Memorial hall. Dr. Hunter took as his topic, "Ed ucation as a Resource." Dr. Hunter arrived at his figures, which he declared are conservative, by citing a recent survey which showed that college trained men during the past few years have earned 100 percent more than those who have not had this training. "If we estimate that the 20,000 alumni of the university and state college alone earn but $25 more per month as a result of their higher educa tion, this is a sum of $5,000,000 per year," the chancellor pointed out. "This would represent a five percent return on a resource endowment of $100,000,000, which can be termed the actual worth of the institutions to the people of the state, since it brings in this return in actual wealth in the form of Increased earning power." The actual worth of higher edu cation as a resource would even be much greater if it were possible to place an estimate on the great value of research and the results this field brings, Dr. Hunter declared. He cited the Invaluable benefit to the world of the discovery of a cure of anemia, made at the medical school, and the various discoveries made by the state college that have aided in Increasing crop yields and in controlling crop pests. Support for the higher education system of the state, on the grounds that it Is worth all it costs and more, was asked by Chancellor Hunter. An enthusiastic response was accorded his address. The big banquet was the climax to what a record number of fath ers declared to be the best "Dad's Day" since the Oregon Dads were organized nine years ago. During the afternoon the fathers had their own rooting section at the Oregon Idaho football game, and they dis played as much vigor and pep as did the students themselves. At the annual mass meeting the "Oregon Dads" re-elected Earle Wellington, Portland, president, and again chose Merle R. Chessman, Astoria, for vice-president, Walter M. Cook of Portland, secretary, and Earle M. Pallett, Eugene, executive secretary. Three new members were elected to the executive com mittee, as follows: Joseph R. Riesch, Roy O. Burnett and Loyal H. McCarthy, all of Portland. Other members of the executive committee who will continue in of fice are Ralph S. Hamilton, Rev. John W. Beard, Ralph Morrison, C. W. Morden, W. M. Davis, Willard Bond, all of Portland, and Carl Haberlach, Tillamook. The university is all set for the most progressive year in the history of the Institution, the fathers were told by Dr. C. Valentine Boyer, president of the university. He des cribed the extra-curricular activ ities of students, which is a phase of university life of utmost im portance, he declared. Through these students develop leadership initiative and other qualities. In these faculty members act as coun sellors and advisers, and let the stu dents themselves supply the lead ership, he pointed out. The new library, which will be ready for occupancy next fall, was described for the fathers by M. H. Douglass, librarian. Greetings were also brought to the session by Mrs. Hazel Schwering, dean of women; Karl W. Onthank, dean of person nel, and Virgil D. Earl, dean of men. IRRIGON "MRS. W. C. ISOM.

It is a matter of charac- ter. Good credt is a progressive asset. Poor credit is a progress- : ive handicap. What is more forlorn than the man without credit the man who has been trusted by his fellows and has flunked that I trust? . I By the same reasoning, what is more beneficial than good credit? The man with good credit looks to the future unafraid. Oppor- tunities are his. Credit, his advantage. The man alert to his own interest pays up and keeps his credit good !
