"This means that virtually every person has a vested Interest
in the hospital of his community," he said.
Tt trTiame time the good work of other hospitals should

U&ugh ignoble venture is great-backed with the support
ofSJ public. Children under 15 are admitted t , Shriner
Hospital without regard for race, color or creed. Some in our
own .county have revived vitally needed treatment there
Last year 366 children wete admitted to the hospital, and
It arranged Z2U visits to the out patient clinic.
(MhopwUc operations at Shriners Hospital totaled 502 in
1964 and surgical operations are performed three days a week.
In addUioi last year children of the hospital were provided
with 4TT bracW and 47 artificial limbs. Since the hospital was
dedicated in Portland in 1924. it has given free treatment to
more than 11,500 boys and girls.
Perhaps fewpersons fully realize the tremendous cost that
modern hospitalfface in keeping pace with the development

often impossible to recruit except through a process of bidding.
Hospitals exist for only one reason, and that is to provide
our physicians with the best possible facllit es to get well.
Even though a physician may be the greatest capable of
diagnosing cases perfectly and prescribing perfely, our hc
pitals must have the equipment the personnel and the know
how to carry out his prescriptions If a patient Is to have the
best chance for survival or full recovery. hrtcrvltai
So when we think of our fine Pioneer Memorial hospital,
Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children, Doernbecher in Port

Yes Hospital Week is one that we enjoy observing, and
we iZ this method to salute those who have had foreright

them so well.
Don't Knock C-Plus Students
(From the Stayton Mail)
A research study of 1,072 leaders in business, education
and government listed in "Who's Who in America" found that
a majority of them had averaged C-plus to B in grades during
COlThS is according to an editorial In the Chicago Daily
NC From this it does not follow the way to get into "Who's
Who" is to avoid getting A. But the lack of connection between
who's at the top of the class accidentally and who's at the
p of the nation in these fields a generation later doestadl
cate that school grades don't measure all of the important
thiThe Chicago editorial writer says the reasons for a student
not getting the best grades may be poor ones, such m laanesa
and inefficiency just as there are poor reasons for getting high
grades, such as overly-narrow interests or caring more for
marks than for learning.
But there are also valid reasons why many students get
less than the highest grades, such as the development of in
terests and abilities not contained in the curriculum. It should
be noted that the three fields included in the research study
business, education and government require interest in the
skills of Popte- h'at grades provide needed Incentives and
useful measurements. But it is healthful to be reminded that
life and human nature are too complex and varied to be
caught by grades and pinned for all time, like dead butter
flies in an exhibit case. We suspect, as the Chicago writer,
that most inhabitants of the big red book are more outstanding
for continuing to learn and grow after graduation than for
their high grades while in school.

clock In the court house belfry.
Th following I a part of
tury of theivurthou.se given ;u
me by Mike Galloway, early
day photographer of Heppner, a
few week before he died.
- nnd last wa the stone
building erected by Mike Rob
ert on the site of the old Bel
vedcer wooden saloon. At the
same time the CXld Fellow'
built their fine new stone build
ing Just north and adjoining the
Huberts saloon. Some of the
stone used In the construction
of these two buildings were
shipped from Elgin, Oregon,
and the black or blue stone wn
quarried from the local cliff.
Then the new court house wn
started and finished and rock
from the ame source were
used.
"A Jew was the architect; a
Frenchman. Frank ITatt. the
head rock man. Vic Groshens.
another Frenchman, who later
opened a saloon on the corner
of Main and May streets was
another rock man on tne joo.
Robert Will set the stairway
and did most of the carpenter
work. It was finished and occu
pied at the time of the great
flw.d of 1903.
"Yes, there was a clock In the
tower at that time."
So goes Mike's story of the
courthouse. Just a few weeks be
fore the flood something went
wrong with the clock. Judge
Ayers asked me to see what was
wrong. I examined the tower
and found the braces were too
light In one place. I took up a
couple of braces, Jacked the
tower up to place them, and the
clock has been running ever
since. There definitely was a
clock there before the flood. Tho
settling of the tower Jammed
tho works of the clock, and the
court had Peter Borg, local
Jeweler, repair it.
I got $25.00 for the Job.
