In brief, it will be just one more evidence of our intention to win the war by keeping ev erybody in a healthy working condition. No welfare fund is better expended than that placed in the hands of the Oregon Tuberculosis association. -o- mill W!- V&--yss Kit- '' v CAUSE FOR THANKSGIVING Thanksgiving will not be the same to most of our people this year. It could not be the same in the light of what is going on in the world. Yet there is cause for Thanksgiving, be it lacking in the spirit that governs peacetime ob servance of the day. For most of the country it may be said we are thankful for bountiful harvests. That is encouraging to our cause and discouraging to the Axis. It was part of their plan to see that crops would not be harvested in this and other countries of the western hemi- sphere. Recent developments in Africa and the south Pacific also give us reason to be thankful thankful that we have the machinery of war and the men to handle it. In conclusion let us be thankful that we still have the right to observe Thanksgiving as free men and women ; that we can still vote as we please with no Gestapo looking over our shoulders to see that we vote the "right" way. So long as this condition prevails we can look forward to each Thanksgiv ing day with a feeling of pride in a na tion for which our valiant sons are giv ing their all to preserve. o MORE ESSENTIAL THAN EVER With all these drives, going on for war materials and the constant ham mering on war bonds and stamps there is danger of overlooking some of the important matters pertaining to civil ial welfare. This should not happen, for it is essential that the health of those remaining at home should be maintained. Otherwise- the well-being of our fighting forces would be jeopar dized. Monday saw the opening of the an nual sea sale sponsored by the Oregon Tuberculosis association. Upon the re sults of that sale rests the effective operation of the Morrow County health association. If our people are not liber al with their purchases, of seals the work in this county will be impaired. On the other hand, if the quota is met SCRAP DRIVE IMPORTANT Morrow county cannot rest on her laurels and allow7 that other 50 to 55 percent of scrap iron and steel to rust in the fields and barnyards. Every pound of the metal will be needed in forthcoming months to keep the muni tion and armament streams flowing steadily to the front. Winning of the October award is the best argument for driving ahead to greater accom plishment, not for the glory, which in itself is not to be ignored, but for the invaluable service we may render in the prosecution of a successful war on our enemies. A clean-up drive is scheduled for Friday and Saturday of this week. It is not expected that this effort will par allel the October drive when 1,194,000 pounds of scrap iron and steel was weighed in. It will serve to fill demands of the conversion plants during the winter months when gathering and delivering of the metal will be imprac tical. The greater the scrapiron piles this winter the less, demand for them at a time when farmers must attend to their field work. Full cooperation at this time will relieve the pressure later and at the same time assure the boys at the front that the boys at home are carrying on their share of the fight. o WHAT DOES IT MATTER? Weather has. always been something to talk about when other subjects were lacking. It has its pleasant aspects as wrell as disagreeable features, and as such forms a topic upon which most of us can express opinions. Since the clays of Pearl Harbor there has been less said about the weather, particuarly in combat zones, because of the possibility of lending aid and comfort to the enemy. Consequently, a subject which frequently made the headlines has, been conspicuous in its absence the past several months. There is no disposition to let down the bars, at this time but there can be no harm in mentioning the fact that fall weather conditions have been fav orable to the grain grower, and even the stockman is beginning to appre ciate the attentions of the weather man. These facts can't possibly hold comfort for the enemy for it means, that the food production line will be maintained in harmony with war pro duction lines. It is just as well not to predict or forecast weather conditions, especially as long as, the enemy may be lurking near our shores, yet a limited forecast such as on frost conditions, in areas where fruits are predominant has been granted. But what does it matter if weather that has, already happened is mentioned or discussed? The Leonard Carlson home on Fight Mile was the scene of a p?r tv Sunday evening when friends gathered to help Mr. and Mrs Leonar Carlson and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Baker observe the 25th wedding anniversaries. An enjoyable evening was spent in playing games end visiting, augmented with mu sic bv Mildred and Lewis Carlson ?nd Betty and Helen Fay Baker. A bountiful lunch including chicken sandwiches, pickles, ice cream, wedding cake and coffee was ,cerved. A four-tier wedding cake b?aiing a bride and groom under an archway of flowers, graced the center of the table. Mrs. Carlson and Mrs. Baker cut the wedding cake, Mrs. Ben Anderson poured coffee and Mrs. Henry Peterson served the ice cream. For this very special occasion Mrs. Cailson wore a black velvet dress and Mrs. Baker a blue velvet dress, each carrying corsages of gardenias and rosebuds. Mr. Carl son and Mr. Baker displayed bou toniers of pink carnations in hon or of the occasion.
