You Should Buy
Your Aspirin Here
Where You Get
A MRVICB TO TAXPAYER9
This may come a news to you, but aspirin is one
of those drugs that may be of a deductible nature on
your federal income tax return.
But to claim it, you must be able to offer proof you
bought it.
When you buy it from us, you get that proof. But
when you buy it at the corner grocery, or in a depart
ment store, or in a restaurant, you are likely to forget
about it.
That goes for a lot of other things, too such as
antiseptics, cough and cold preparations, laxatives, and
so on.
Our customers like to buy all of their drug supplies
from us, because they know they will get the benefit
of a complete record of all purchases of a deductible
nature.
Our customers get an annual statement (mailed in
February) which tells them how much they spent on
drugs of a deductible nature. It's called a DrugTax
record, and we offer it to our customers free of charge.
Next time you buy aspirin (or any drug item), be sure
you're in a store that gives you a DrugTax record. Come
income tax time, it can save you money.

before moving to Baker some
two years or more ago, died
Sunday morning at Baker, ac
cording to word received by
friends here.
Funeral services were at Wes
tern Funeral Parlor, Baker, Wed
nesday. Death apparently was
from heart trouble. Davidson
was n member of both the Ma
sonic and Odd Fellows lodges.

vive.
Alvin Wagenblast
Incorrectly Quoted
The Gazette-Times erred last
week in reporting that Alvin
Wagenblast had signed a pet
ition with other farmers indi
cating opposition to the irriga
tion feature of the Willow Creek
dam. In reporting the story he
was confused with another per
son who testified.
Wagenblast has been a pro
ponent of the dam consistently
and as a leader of farm groups
has had his name attached to
several resolutions in favor of
the project. The paper regrets
any embarrassment that this er
ror may have caused him.

Accident Blocks
Condon Highway
When a truck and trailer,
loaded with chips, slowed down
to pass an auto on the shoulder
of the highway to Condon on the
hill south of Heppner last Thurs
day night, the trailer jack knifed
on icy pavement and created a
road block that lasted for five
hours until it could be cleared.
The big rig was proceeding
north from Spray to Wallula
with Glen A. Meek as driver. A
car, driven by James Hayes ann
headed south, had stopped on
the highway shoulder while the
driver was installing chains.
Meek applied brakes to slow
down in passing the car, but
the trailer skidded on tne ice
and pinned the car against the
roadside bank.
Sheriff C. J. D. Bauman and
others went to the scene about
11:30 but it wasn't until 4 a.m.
that they could extricate the
vehicles. It was necessary to get
a crawler-type tractor to do the
job.
There was little damage to
either vehicle. The sheriff said
that the highway was in very
hazardous condition, almost un
believable to those in town just
a few miles away.
Dee Cox Sailfish
Displayed at Store
No, the big mounted sail
fish that you may have seen
on display in the Gilliam and
Bisbee Hardware window
wasn't caught in Willow Creek.
It is the prize of Dee Cox
Jr. who caught it on a fishing
trip to Acapulco, Mexico, on
November 16. He had it
mounted and the trophy ar
rived just recently.
The sailfish was landed after
about a half-hour struggle and
weighed 135 pounds. Mr. and
Mrs. Cox took the trip with
their son and daughter-in-law.
Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Cox, of
Springvilie, Utah. Marvin also
caught a sailfish but it wasn't
as large as his dad's.
Dee now doesn't know just
what to do with the mounted
fish but probably would bo
willing to place it in a local
public building for ornamen
tation and display.
