(City Milk Inspector)
I am aaked many times of late
as to quality and safenesa of raw
or pasteurised . ltlk, meaning I pre
sume, which la best or healthiest? I
might say I appreciate the compli
ment for anyone even presuming
that a milk Inspector would be an
authority on so vital a question to
them. ,
However. In my own case. I am
quite like the old coiured auntie who
was asked by her southern mistress.
a young :lty-bred mother, as to the
best, or most healthful temperature
of bath water for Infantsraw 01
pasteurtned? Auntie replied, "Well
honey, X don't wictly member about
raw or pasteurized babies, but the
way I does with water Is to put
the baby In and If ha turns red
It's too hot; and If he turns blue,
It's too cold." 5o perhaps with the
milk If baby changes color alarm
ingly by the use of either raw or
paateurlned, one might be justified
In making a change.
I quote from a recent edttorlal In
"The Dairy World":
"Painstaking detail In the pro
ducing and processing of milk Is
not only healthful, but It's a
God-bentowed privilege to aid
materially In raising a strong
and virile nation. Cleanliness
has been long acclaimed as next
to Godliness, but In maintain
ing purity tn milk, X claim it's
Godliness Itself."
To again quote from the editor of
"The Milk Dealer":
"Painstaking detail In a milk
plant or pasteurizing processes
can't restore quality or cleanll- '
neas which milk has lost be
tween the cow and a plant way
tank. Any loss thus occurring
puts milk Just so many hours
nearer the spoiling point."
The housewife should remember
that slie also has a very gTavt re
sponsibility In both the quality
maintained and the sanitation of
the milk supply. Light, temperature.
exposure or neglect hastens that
point of spoiling raster as time
lengthens.
It's a fallacy for anyone to pre
sume that because milk la canned
or condensed It's cleaner or quality
isdened with all the virtues of
sanative milk.
I am frank to state that milk
can't be made clean, but It can
he kept clean.
UNIVERSITY CAST
TO GIVE PLAY AT
DRAMA CONCLAVE
First of the southern Oregon-northern
California drama conferences
planned sa annual events by the
drama department of the Southern
Oregon Normal school, under the di
rection of Angus L. bowmer, is sched
uled for January 17, 18 and 10, ac
cording to an announcement made to.
day by Mr. Bowmer. An Invitation la
extended to everyone in this area In
terested In drama, and the school has
worked out a carefully planned pro
gram designed to be of Interest to
everyone, and particularly to the ama
teur producer, Mr. Bowmer stated.
An outstanding feature of the three,
day program will be the presentation
by the University of Oregon players
of "The Rivals, by Richard Brindaley
Sheridan. This brilliant costume com
edy is being especially, prepared for
presentation at the conference under
the direction of Ottllle Be I bolt, head
of the division of drama at the uni
versity. Two performances of the
play are scheduled, and it Is felt by
those planning the conference that
more than any other event of the
program, this presentation will bring
fine entertainment to the general
public as well as those attending the
conference.
Mr. Bowmer has secured the prom
ise of Miss Floyd Crutch field of Los
Angeles, to appear aa principal speak,
er. Miss Crutohfleld, an outstanding
authority on drama and the problems
of the amateur producer. Is head of
the Los Angeles branch of the Sam
uel French Publishing company, and
her resoaroh and accomplishments in
this field are widely recognized, stated
Mr. Bowmer.
It la expected by those In charge
that the round-table discussions In
specialized fields of the theater will
prove of great value to those attend
ing. Among the various phases of
drama to be discussed are: "Prob
lem 7 of the director," head of the
dlvSIon of drama at Oregon State
college; "Technical problems of scen
ery and lighting," Horace Robinson of
the division of drama at the Univer
sity of Oregon: "Costumes," by Ixis
Bowmer; "Pupperry" and "Make-up."
These and the other group discussions
planned will be led by an expert In
each field.
The Southern Oregon Normal school
will revive George Bernard Shaw's
"Candida" which is now in the midst
of a run of six performances. This
produotlon will effectively, demon
strate how a modern comedy may be
taged without the aid of scenery or
stage platform, which Mr. Bowmer be.
lieves will go far toward helping solve
some of the most Important dlftcul
ties encountered by amateur produc
era In small communities or organiz
ations which often lack adequate fa
cilities. A complete schedule of events for
the three-day conference will appear
at a later date.

ETHELWYN B HOFFMANN
If Immediate cash payment of
I World war veterans' adjusted ser
vice certificates Is authorized by
the 1036 congress, every member ox
the Veterans of Foreign Wars of
the United States will share the
amount due him with disabled vet
erans and with the V. F. w. national
home for war orphans at Eaton
Rapids, Michigan, according to a
nation-wide plan row being Inaugu
rated. This material exemplification of
the V. F. W. slogan "One for all
and all for one" was explained here
today by Commander George Cod
ding of Crater Lake Post No. 1833,
V. F. W. The plan calls for crea
tion of a War Chest Trust Fund"
of 81.000,000 with which to protect
the legislative interests of disabled
veterans and their dependents, Com
mander Codding explained.
"Commander-in-Chief James E.
Van Zandt, as chairman of the
V. F. W, War Cheat Trust Fund, is
asking every World war veteran in
our organization aa well as those
who do not belong, to pledge the
sum of at least 810 to th Is trust
fund, to be paid as soon as the
adjusted service certificates are re
deemed tn cash," Codding stated.
"Prospects for victory In the cam
paign for Immediate cash payment
of the 'bonus' were never more en
couraging than at present. We be
lieve that every one of the three
and one-half million World war
veterans to whom this payment is
due, will be glad to express his sp
prestation for the long fight the
V. F. W. has made In his behalf, by
contributing a share of It to our
national home for war orphans, and
to establish a fund for the protec
tion and support of adequate bene
fits for veterans and their de
pendents. Half of each $10 received will be
devoted to the national home, Com
mander Codding said, and the re
maining $s will constitute a dona
tion to the War Chest Trust Fund,
expenditures from which can be
authorized only by the V. F. W.
national council of administration.
The fact that the United States
lacks a permanent security policy
for Its disabled and needy jreterans
and the wldowa and orphans of de
ceased veterans, necessitates the
proposed trust fund. Commander
Codding explained. The economy
act of 1033, which nullified the dis
ability allowance act and removed
400,000 disabled veterans from the
rolls, was cited as an example of
the emergency which might again
arise In the future."
