We want to remind you that it
la not too lute Our you to buy
Christmas sea-.s to decorate your

have," wrote Stevenson to u friend,
"if we were all well, what work
we couid do. whit a happy place
we could make lor each otlr."
Isn't it worth working for'. Doesn't
It seem to suggest the l:ibercul:;M;i
Christmas seal, which works the
year around, to bring health . to
everybody? Yes, Siovtn.m knew,
for .his life was cut short by tu
berculosis, you remember.
And another thing we wnnt to
remind you all hiiih school pupils
ure not healthy enoueh to make the
team. On the contrary, tuberculo
sis claims more victims around
that ago than any other. So buy
Chrlstimus seals and help the work"
of the Jackson Count v Public
Health association.
Twenty-five years n-;o tubercu
losis meant a death sentence and
a general menace. Today, through
health education, the death rate
has been cut hi half but is still the
lending cause of death between the
ages of lo and 4f years. It Is esti
mated that on the average a per
son who dies from tuberculosis is
siek for two years and so sick for
Moose Norbeck of Portland.:
scheduled to wrestle Art Evans,
Cherokee Indian, here next Friday
evening at the FUalto theatre. Is
expected to arrive in Medford to

Indian, who promises to give Nor
beek one of ttie toughest battles
of hin career. Tickets are re
ported to be selling good and the
ihcfure is expected to he filP'd
with wrestling fans from all parts,
of southern Oregon.
Wrestlers in the preliminary
matches are In hard training, es-j
pecially Tommy Ityan who will '
meet Young Clutch of Portland j
in the semi-winuup. (ioteh is 10 1

- It Is also estimated that ths av
j crape income of the average man
is $luuo a year. So that the loss
' cf income to the. community is $1,-
OoO for each death from tubercu-
. losis.
Metal ; It is nlso true that, while this
; person is so sick as to bo unable
ito work, someone must care for
; him. and this care Is moderately
estimated al $SU0. So each death

I Many of (he members of the

state champions, who graduate
this year, when, and if they go
to college, wilt attend the Culver-j-slty
of- Oregon, -unless they change
'their minds, between now and next
September.
Hernia Hughes, admittedly, even
in The Dalles, as the most prom-
j ising high school center in the
state, and bis brother, Jack, are
j both slated for Rugene, ami both
plan on turning out with the fresh-
man football squad next fall. Rill
.Morgan' tackle, and nlso regarded
l as varsity material, is likewise
scheduled to attend 'Old Oregon.'
j The loral athletes regard the
jl'nlversity of Oregon, as the corn
ling, "athletic Kchonl," and having
the best educational facilities.
Next year will be a lean year
for Jbo local football squad, but
j not as lean, as It might be, for
i the second string, is a. seasoned
I outfit, ami has weight and speed,
j From the, present outlook. It will
j be a lighter team than any that
have worn the Rlack and Ked for
five years, but to offset this, it
will be a "smarter" team than
usual. The entire line, and two
from the backfield of this year,
graduate next June.

The Object of
Medicine Today
The great object of medicine todny in, more along
tlu; lines of prevention than of cure.
Tlnit tlneKift mean that physicians are rclaxui thoir
efforts tn britiK relief from suffering and disease. ' It
simply means that greater efforts arc' being put forth
along th.e lines of preventing serious troubles from occur-,
ring or of making undue headway through a better
understanding of how 'to' live so as to avoid illness and
disease, ' f ; ,
And just as it is easier to dam a 'rivulet than a river.
so is it easier to correct any illness -at its very beginning
than after it lias been permitted to become of serious
proportions. ', "' -v ' ..- '
An illness in the family should urge you to call tho
physician us promptly as you would deal with n firo
discovered ill your home.
That is the safest wrty under all circumstances..
Let us fill your prescriptions, ' ' . . .. ..
