D OTS ' 7 JOTS -Jg& Clifford Carlsons sent us a cute one on the bottom of our subscription renewal reminder: "We are billed each day in rows of very tiresome prose The sum you did not disclose But five dollars we enclose"! rrS FINISHED. Jack Loyd promised to make me a bench last summer in time for the pa rade. This week he delivered this, absolutely handsome bench. It all started when I thought these gentlemen looked so cool and comfortable sitting on benches in the shade along Main St. last summer. The Ore gon Journal reprinted the editor ial and agreed with us that it would be a good idea to have benches along Main St Just for sittin' and chattin'. Now all I have to do is de cide what color to paint it and put GAZETTE-TIMES on It. Do you suppose I'll have to bring it in each evening to keep some one from walking off with it? I'd like to think not. Do stop by and sit on my bench! When we were in Pilot Rock, each business paid to have a bench made and painted with the name of the business on it. These were used not only on special occasions like the Har vest Festival held during Aug ust but also on every day oc casions. Amy D.

A note from Joyce Johnson who used to work for Dr. Wolff before they moved to The Dalles . . . Dorothy: I was interested in reading your crab salad reefpe in to days paper. Ive used it several times and the family seems to enjoy it. My recipe is slightly different in that it calls for melting a cube of butter and tossing with your bread mixture.

The words polyunsaturat ed and low cholesterol have ta ken on some magical meaning and have given those who were worried about heart disease the delusion of avoiding the dang ers of heart disease through diet. A recently completed ten year study on 912 persons in Fram- ingham, Mass., disclosed some startling findings. Don Stangel, Morrow County Extension Agent urges anyone interested in or concerned about diet and heart disease should purchase a copy of the Framingham Diet Study, published by the USPHS from the Superintendent of Docu ments, Washington, D. C. 20402 (75c). A few of the concluding state ments in this study are as fol lows: "With one exception there was no discernible association between reported diet intake and serum cholesterol level in the Framingham Diet Study Group . . ." "There is, in short, no sug gestion of any relaton between diet and subsequent develop ment of coronary heart disease in the study group . . ." The U. S. Consumer should be made aware of this important study and hopefully correct mis information that has been tak en for fact by so many people. If you are still concerned a- bout saturated fats in your diet, remember natural fats are nei ther saturated nor unsaturated, they are mixtures of both types. For example, milk fat contains over 30 of the so-called un saturated fats. Although most vegetable oils initially contain considerable unsaturated fats, these fats in a product like oleo margarine must be chemically saturated to give it the same physical characteristics of but ter. This tends to be very mis leading to the consumer. If . one accepts the results of the Framingham study there is every reason for a healthy Indi vidual to eat a balanced diet of the foods he enjoys. Undoubt edly ( the worry about food is more harmful than the diet.

GONTY'S HAVE FOUND MORE FOR THEIR 41st SEMI-ANNUAL U Clinic Finds Thirteen Diabetics Thirteen persons in ' Morrow County have been detected as newly diagnosed diabetics and are now under medical atten tion as a result of the Diabetes Detection Clinics held in the county in March, according to Mrs. Lowell Chally, R.N., Mor row County Health nurse. The clinics were sponsored by the Morrow County Extension Home makers Adivsory Committee, with the cooperation of the Mor row County Health Department and the Oregon State Board of Health, and numerous volun teers. Of 645 blood tests taken dur ing the two-day clinics, 39 were referred to the health depart ment for follow-up and medical evaluation of both low and high blood sugar results as found by laboratory testing. According to Dr. L. D. Tibbies, Health Offi cer, 80 to 120 mgm is the nor mal blood sugar level. Due to the combined cooper ation of the referred person to make an appointment with his physician, and the return of the completed survey form to the health office by the examining doctor, 36 reports have thus far been received. Of these, 13 were found to be new diabetics, nine known diabetics, and the re maining 15 found to be not di abetic at the time of examina tion. Some of these 15 were asked by their doctors to return for repeat of the blood sugar tests at stated intervals. Dr. Tibbies stated, "I feel that finding these 13 previously un known cases of diabetes and getting them under medical treatment, as well as having a medical evaluation of those others who were referred to theii doctors, has made the Diabetes Detection Clinics very rewarding and worthwhile. In addition, some of the known diabetics were reminded of the import ance of returning to their doc tors for regular checkups of their diabetic condition". Referred, 39; reports received, 37; known, 9; new 13 and non- diabetic 15. Heppner, 321; lone, 186; Boardman, 138.
