SALARY WAS LITTLE,
LUXURIES LESS
The Methodist preacher of the early
dayi was not exected to revel In luxury.
Thin wm evidenced by the niinutea found
in nn old Quarterly Conference mlnutea
record now in McKendrre Collejre
I.ilnury in Illinois.
The record shows that in the Quarterly
Meeting held at Shiloh Methodist Church
in the yeur 1833 the estimating com
mittee drought in a report recommend
injr the following allowance for the
support of the pastor and hi wife for
the ensuing year:
Twenty pounds of coffee ... I 4.00
Twenty pounds of augar - -.00
Four hundred pounds of
beef and pork
Ten bushels of cornmeal .....
Three hundred pounds of
flour - -- -
... 10.00
... 6.00
... 7.50
House Kent 18.00
($1.50 per month)
Corn to feed the horse 7.50
Fodder for horse 2.00
(200 bundles)
Wood, six cords 6.00
Vegetables 1.00
Salt, pepper and spice 1.00
Butter 2.50
Total for the year $68.50
This report was amended after discus
sion, and the corn and fodder stricken
out on the ground that they were not
taxable expense. They raised the sugar
from 20 pounds to 40 pounds. The flour
was raised from 300 pounds to 400
pounds. The salt, pepper and spice was
raised from $1.00 to $2.00. This made the
total allowance $73.00 instead of $68.50.
There is no record to show how the
hors- was fed. This was left to the
ingenuity of the Circuit Rider.

FKKSII STRAWBERRY PIE
(!" pie)
1 'L. quarts fresh strawberries
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Wash and cap the berries,
reserve half of them-the larg
est and best colored ones. Mash
the rest of the berries, and add
the sugar and cornstarch,
mixed together. Cook 5 or 6
minutes until clear and thick.
Siir in the lemon juice. Cool.
Add the whole berries to the
cooled mixture, saving a few for
garnish. Pour into a baked
pastry shell. Top with whipped
cream just before serving and
garnish with whole berries.
Two-thirds of this recipe (1
quart of berries) is enough for
an 8-inch-pie.
When a young man asked to
look at engagement rings, the
jeweler asked, "What sort of
setting did you have in mind?"
The youthful swain looked
startled, flushed, then said,
"Oh, probably her living room
couch."
Returning Mental Patient,
What He Expects from You
David E. Mitchum,
Mental Health Director
One of the most significant
results of the recent advance
ments in the care and treatment
of the mentally ill is the greater
number of people returning
from our mental hospitals.
Eastern Oregon State Hospital
returns over 350 people to this
part of the state each year.
Unfortunately, the retruning
mental patient often faces a
community whose attitudes are
changin" - a much slower pace
than i --eded to meet his
needs.
Although we understand it is
not generally true in this area,
there are still employers who
will not re-hire mental patients.
Sometimes you hear of land
lords who will ask a patient's
family to leave, store managers
who will refuse to extend credit
to ex-patients, teachers who will
feel uncomfortable about their
students who have had to seek
help, and friends and relatives
who will wonder and be
"over -cautious.
: The first thing one must do is
admit to feeling uneasy about
the returning patient, which
most people deny. They must
remember that the mentally ill
are more like them than they
are different from them. They
expect to be treated like
everyone else-with a few vari
ations. Dr. Lauren H. Smith,
former chairman of the Council
on Mental Health, American
Medical Association, outlines
the following suggestions to
help the ex-mental hospital
patient:
DON'T- Beoversolicitiousor
encourage dependency.
-Be demanding, disrespect
ful or rejecting.
-Threaten a return to the
hospital.
-Attack self-esteem or self
confidence. -Agree with "extreme"
talk or attitudes.
-Talk behind his back.
DO-Give support, encourage
ment, respect and affection.
-Expect in general the
same kind of conducts you
would from anybody else.
-Be optimistic about the
ability to change.
-Recognize the right to
disagreee.
-Keep up prescribed medication.
Yes,
there are
a lot of
good reasons
for women
to quit
smoking.
Find yours.
( ) I'm a mother. Children whose parents
smoke arc more likely to smoke than those
whose parents don't.
( ) Mv closet smells rotten, my clothes
smell rotten; I'm nek of it.
( ) Lung cancer deaths are twice as high
among women who smoke as among those
who don't.
( ) I'm pregnant. Smoking can affect the
health of mv baby.
( ) I'm middle-aged. Women 45-54 who
smoke have twice the nsk of dying of coro
nary heart disease as those who don t.
( ) seem to be sick a lot. Women who
smoke a lot have more chronic illness, lose
more time from work, are sick more often
than those who don't.
( ) I know my husband's been trying to
quit. How can he with me still puffing
away?
( ) I want to wake up feeling fresh and
clean again. lVe had it with nicotine hang
over. ( ) The thing that appeals to me most
is: In most cases, if you quit for Rood it
can be as if you never smoked.
( ) 1 thought it was hopeless; I quit once
and went back. But someone told me a lot of
people had to quit over and over before it
took. I'm trying again. t
( ) If I quit, I'll save 50 a day. Thats
$3.50 a week, $14.00 a month. $182.50 a
year. What 1 could do with that !
( ) So many people I know have quit,
I'm beginning to feel stupid about smoking.
( ) There's something very cool and self
assured about women who dont need
cigarettes.
( ) I quit once for 10 days and, frankly,
1 felt pretty good about it. I like that feeling;
this time I'm quitting for good. Lord knows.
I've done a lot harder things in my life.
( ) Somewhere in the back of my head
I've been nursing the illusion that smoking
is really only dangerous for men. I've just
seen the latest statistics.The death rate for
women who smoke is more than 20 higher
than women who don't. WeVe come a long
way baby, but I'm not going any further.
Now all you need is help and encouragement.
Send a postcard today to: Women &
Smoking, Rockville. Md. 20852. And well
send some free booklets to help and encour
age you.

Dear Editors:
Dear Sir:
I am a student at Grants Pass
High School in southern Oregon.
This last semester we had a new
course called Model State
Legislature. It was a mock
State Legislature. I had the
pleasure to be the representa
tive from District 55.
I was the only student who got
a telephone call from their
representative. Some students
did not even get a letter of
acceptance, which was requir
ed. I got all of the information
on what was going on in Salem.
I think the people of District
55 should know what an effort
Mr. Sumner is doing for their
District. He took time out to talk
to me when our class went to
Salem. We watched from the
gallery, he was just great.
I think that you the people in
District 55 should be proud to
have such a good Representa
tive. I would like to thank Mr. and
Mrs. Sumner for all the help
that they both were during the
class.

Power Without Pollution
Kinzua
Thank you for printing my
letter, and a very special thank
you to all who helped clean up
the Main St. since that is all I
have seen. What a difference it
has made. Murrays must sell
energy pills, now if he would sell
me some maybe I could get my
own mess cleaned.
On TV news I heard that if you
didn't carry a trash container
you'd better have an extra
$10.00 bill. Seems a little steep
to me but the idea was good.
Maybe if we followed their idea
and maybe charged our care
less people a dollar and use the
money for more help to keep up
our cemetery and parks. We
were at Goldendale for Fathers
n and was told anyone
without the ten dollars worked
10 days. I don't think any of us
want to do that. I'll probably be
first. So don't be surprised if
you see me pushing the first
broom.
The street really looks good
and I thank all who help. Next
time give me a call and I will do
all I can to help.
Many Thanks to all,
Edna Hutchens.

Pollution is the price our
society pays for the , fuel of
progress. But there are untapp
ed sources of energy that would
not despoil our air.
Nuclear power may solve our
energy needs and pollution
problems. Many experts predict
it will. Others disagree. A staff
report to the Public Service
Commission in New York re
cently warned that nuclear
energy cannot solve the power
crisis swiftly and safely. The
Commission urged the devel
opment of nonatomic sources.
One source of energy sug
gested was coal gasification.
Coal is dwindling as a source of
power now because it creates so
much pollution. But polluting
gases can be extracted from the
burning coals in special refining
plants. Then the gas can be
burned in steam generating
plants that spew little pollution.
still another source of energy
is advocated by former Interior
Secretary Walter J. Hickel. He
has proposed that the govern
ment invest $685 million to
study ways to develop geo
thermal energy. This energy
comes from tapping the heat of
the earth's core to make steam
to run electric power plants.
The most visible forms of
geothermal energy are geysers,
hot springs, and volcanoes.
Much larger reserves lie in
great underground regions of
hot dry rocks and volcanic
molten rock. If development
begins soon, Mr. Hickel predicts
that in another 25 years this
form of energy could supply
even more power than is
produced by the entire electric
power system in the U. S.
Developing ways to provide
power without pollution is an
overriding concern. To find out
how you can pitch into the fight
against air pollution, contact
your local tuberculosis and
respiratory disease association.
It's a matter of life and breath.
