AS MEMORIAL TO
115 YEARS PEACE
Mrs. L. M. McKee left the paat week
on s protracted trip east which even
tually will take her to her home In
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, after
being ft guest In the city for the past
two months.
Mrs. McKee gave several Interesting
addresses on the international peace
gardens being developed on the bor
derline between Manitoba and North
Dakota while here and aroused much
Interest In the subject.
The gardens are to serve as a me
morial to the long established friend
ship between the United States and
Canada and are being created as ft
result of acta of congress and parlia
ment.
The Idea for the peace garden was
Introduced at the annua meeting of
the National Association of Garden
ers in Toronto, In 1029, when H. J.
Moore, a graduate of Kew gardens,
London, England, and a former lec
turer at Cornell university and of
Ontario college of horticulture, pro
posed to the outstanding horticul
turists and gardeners of North Amer
ica, that there should be a living
memorial to commemorate the US
years of peace whlcn has existed be
tween Canada and the United States,
the memorial to be a flower garden
located along the International
boundary of the two countries. He
suggested a garden that would be ft
replica of typical gardens In every
part of the world so that people from
all nationalities and creeds could go
and linger amidst surroundings of
their native lands.
The national association of garden-
era was enthusiastic over the project
and letters of Incorporation were
taken out and an International com
mittee of 60 men and women ap
pointed 28 from each country to
start action on the matter.
Turtle mountain was chosen as a
site for the memorial, being on the
boundary of Manitoba and North Da
kota, at a point where the boundary
intersects the Canada, to Canal high
waythe longest north and south
highway In the world reaching from
Bo warns n, Manitoba, to Mexico City.
On July 14, 1033, a cairn waa un
veiled In the gardens before the larg
est International assembly ever gath
ered on the continent. The cairn,
about eight feet high, Is built of
native atones gathered from both
sides of the line on which it rests.
Inscribed on the granite plaque" Is
the pledge of enduring peace. It
reads:
"To God In His glory we two na
tions dedicate thla garden and pledge
ourselves that aa long as men shall
live we will not take up arms against
one another.'
Development of the peace garden
can be said to have little more than
Just begun. During the months of

Now everybody can relax.
The bob-tailed cat procured by
Lieut, Phllo D. Smith for MaJ. B. 0.
McMahon has arrived at 'its new
home and taken to the family bosom.
When MaJ. McMahon was trans
ferred from the Med ford CCO dis
trict to Tuscaloosa, Ala., be took
one of this city's notorious bob-taned
pussies with him. Subsequently the
cat died and the family longed for
another of the strange animals.
Phllo Smith came to the rescue
The cat he procured for the McMa
bons had not only a bobbed tall with
a crimp In the end. but bow legs
and an extra toe on each front paw.
The pussy was taken cross country
to Port Knox, Ky., on a troop train
by Capt. S. V. Andrew of Camp
Ounter. From Port Knox the cat
was expressed to Tuscaloosa.
Oapt. Andrew reported Its cross
country trip In the following note
to Ueut. Smith:
" I have that extra -phalangeal,
congenltally malformed monstrosity,
the cat, under my left wing. He's nad
a couple of rather unusual adven
tures for ft cat. We lurched around
s couple of bends and he got a bath
of tomato juice and be fell off the
lounge In my roost and sprained bis
ankle.
I thought he bad an extra toe.
but he hasn't. Merely a thumb where
ft normal cat's toes ought to be. I
think he Is one of evolution's con
temporary ancestors, there must be
some ape In his forefathers.
"P. 8. The men are all right,
too."
Prom MaJ. McMahon comes this
word about the cat's progress:
"The little devil arrived safe and
sound and has been either dead to
the world or raising hell in generaj
ever since. There is no middle ground
in his life. He Is like weather in
Maine, which has only winter ana
the Fourth of July.
"His 6-toed Majesty Is In a class
by himself In this town. I'm looking
forward to the time when hitherto
conventional Tuscaloosa homes start
wondering howlnhell the newly ut
tered kittens happen to have six
toes and funny talis. Sherman wiu
be blamed for It, probably. As the
local newspaper said concerning a re
cent holdup, 'One of the robbers
spoke with a strong northern accent.
"The mut brings us ft breath ol
the Pacific coast onoe more. We
shouldn't mind if army orders would
make It possible for us to take him
back to his home country some
time.
"And thanks sgaln from all of us.
Including the mut himself, who is
asleep In my wastebasket at this
moment."
pended on vital structures, which in
dicates to some extent the magnitude
of the enterprise. An elaborate pro
gram of work Is planned for the
balance of the year.
Civilian Conservation Corps camp
was established In 1934. That year
saw the completion of a great dam,
creating an artificial lake.
Under supervision of the national
pork service, cooperating with the
State Historical society of North Da
kota, projects under development
this year include park roads, picnic
shelters, incinerators, signs, markers
and monuments, nursery site for the
storing of donation gifts of trees,
shrubs and flowers for the gardens,
table and bench combinations, foot

TRACED BY DOCTORS
USING CATS AND DYE
CHICAGO. Oct. l.iPrA pair of
medical pathfinders from Portland,
Ore., described to the American Acad
emy of Optholmology and Otolaryng
ology how, with the aid of blue dye
and cats they traced for the first
time the path of dread sinus germs
to the lungs of afflicted patients.
Dr. Ralph A. Penton read a report
prepared Jointly with Dr. Oolof Lar-
sell, his research colleague at the
University of Oregon, following ten
years of study. Their work waa fi
nanced for the past six years by the
academy.
The blue dye. used as an Indicator.
was filtered through the lymph
glands of experimental cats but
reached the lungs from the frontal
and maxillary sinuses within a few
hours. The dye, and later actual
streptococci used without dye. was
found loaded "all through" the small
blood vessels of the lungs.
The germs. Dr. Fen ton said, even
tually reached the liver and spleen
where they were filtered out of the
body.
A sinus sufferer," he said, "may
not even have a sore throat, but the
Infection may already have spread to
bis lungs. A serious inflammation Is
coused occasionally.
"And as It moves through the
glands, those seemingly rheumatic
pains In the neck Indicate filtration
of the streptococci as they move to
ward the lungs."

calls attention to the character build

The Olrl Scout program la baaed
upon belief In the educational value
of small groups and designed to meet
needs of girls from 1 to 18 years of
age for a leisure time program of men
tal, physical, and character-developing
activities. The program empha
alzea the out-of-door life and gtvea
the girls practical knowledge of such
things as health and safety, bome
maklng, first aid work, arts and
crafts, nature study, camping, swim
ming, and community service. It alms
through comradshlp to develop ini
tiative, self-control, self-reliance, and
unselfish service to others.
When your daughter is with her
Olrl Scout troop, you know that she
Is safe and happy. Her friends are
active girls eager to learn everything
that will help them; and the captain
who heads the troop Is a person to be
trusted.
In our records we have many local
girls who owe the success of their
first Job to their scouting experienoe.
"Sally learned story-telling, sing
ing, handicraft, life-saving, and child
nursing in Olrl Scouting. Later she
got a part time Job as a mother's
helper. This Job helped Sally through
college. Marie, who received the eame
scout training now spends her sum
mers as a counselor in children's
camps, Jane who went to business
college, finds that her training as a
Olrl Scout hostess helped her to hold
a secretarial Job which required tact
In meeting people. Every phase of
scouting helps in ouildlng a well
rounded personality."
Olrl Scouting In Medford has grown
from one lone troop organized In
1927 to 16 active troops. There are
over 275 Olrl Scouts and each of these
troops has from two to four adult
leaders, assisting the leaders of each
troop la a committee of three women,
