Results, both in the state and county, also ran pretty much true to form but brought some surprises by the margins of victory of the favored candidates. Earl Snell. Arlington garageman. will be the next governor of Oregon, being the first eastern Oregon man to achieve that office in many years. His victory was not a surprise but even his most ardent backers did not believe that he would carry by so wide a margin. Other state offices fell in line with prior predictions. Lowell Stockman, mighty son of the plains of eastern Oregon, ended the long congressional reign of the vet eran Walter Pierce by piling up an early lead which increased as the bal lots came in. Observers had predict ed earlier in the campaign that this would be an extremely close race but it failed to matrialize as Stockman won by quite a majority, winning ev ery county in the district except two. His case was typical of the general wave of republican candidates who were swept into office in practically every state. Local politics remained calm and peaceful and all candidates whose names appeared on the ballot were returned to office with very little op position. Talk of a concentrated write-in campaign failed to catch fire and only the few typical write-ins were in order. The vote here fell well in line with that of the state as * whole, even to the per cent of regis tered voters who went to the polla. In Precinct 32 there were 123 regis- tered voters with 50 going to the polls for i percentage of 40, while in Pre- cinct 33 there were 258 registered, 119 going to the polls for a figure of 46 per cent. The veteran mayor. F. C. McKen- zie, was again returned to office by Hermiston voters. By not wishing to change horses in the middle to the stream, playful jests have stated that the stream is assuming the propor tions of a small ocean with the voters still unwilling to make a change. Results in the city were as follows: Precinct 32 Mayor— 35 F. C. McKenzie .......... Recorder— 49 116 Charles Taylor Treasurer— Florine Brace Langen- 45 102 waiter ................. Councilmen-— 45 113 W. W. Felthouse 45 J 06 Dan Gray George Harkenrider 45 107 44 104 B. Haneline W. L. Morgan 47 105 46 107 Alfred Quiring RATS PORTRAY FOOD QUALITY If you have seen the white rats in the Hermiston Herald window, you have noticed that the rat on the coke lunch has a dull appearance, is thin, weak, and irritable, while the rat fed the milk lunch is strong and healthy. Some folks believe that the appear ance of the rat on the coke lunch is due to the quality of food given him. Both rats were given the same quan tity of food and ate it the difference in growth and appearance is due to the quality of the food. Exactly the same results will take place in hum ans as is seen in the rats- the only difference being that it will take years for the results of a poor diet to become apparent with humans while very the effect on rats takes quickly. The daily lunch must furnish one- third of the daily food requirement for the well balanced diet. Myrtle Carter, home demonstrataion agent, suggests in packing the daily lunch box or for the daily lunch that the following food always be included Milk—In food or drink. Bread Whole wheat or enriched. In sandwiches, puddings, or meat loaves. Meat or Cheese or Eggs or Fish— In sandwich fillings, salads or hearty main dishes. Fruit—At least one. plain, or in salads or puddings. Vegetables—At least one, in sand wich fillings, salads, or in hearty main dishes.
