Superintendent Board of Water Commissioners j cisco is planning to vacation in Oregon. Washington and Brit ish Columbia. When's the best month? The department replied anywhere from April to October, depending on whether you like spring or fall flowers for your scenery or cool ocean breezes in midsummer. (Eight above at Coquille on the coast this week. Cool? Ooh!) The first two days of this week, with the mercury sagging to 10 below in Salem for the capitol city's coldest reading on record, the travel information department with headquarters here received 2,257 inquiries about Oregon as a cool green vacation land. Last week 3.430 inquiries. Lots of folks planning to come and see us folks in the vacation season which is only a tew months away, even if it does seem a whole thermometer away right now. Most From California Where does the largest per centage of inquiries, and sub sequently the largest number of tourists, come from? Why, from none other than that happy hunt ing ground of the tourist, Cal ifornia. Ten per cent of our vis' itors will be from the state to our south. And Florida, which gives California what - for in tourist trade competition, will send more tourists to Oregon than any other state in the deep south. How come all this early inter est in Oregon vacations, at this time when some pessimists are convinced the ice age is closing in again? It s developed through a series of eye-catching, vaca tion - appealing advertisements run in several national maga zines and in newspapers through out the country publications with a total circulation of 35.000 000. The department, which is under the state highway com mission, is directed by Manley F. Robison. Foreigners Coming Among the thousands of in quiries already received from persons planning Oregon vaca tions this coming season, Robi son disclosed, arc several from Spain, Brazil, Mexico. Canada, Engfand, Turkey, France, Iran, the Gold Coast of Africa, India, the Philippines, Malaya. None yet from Russia. From Germany have come sev eral inquiries. Wistful inquiries about beautiful Oregon scenery and other attractions wistful because the persons making the inquiries can't possibly make it here financially. But they get the full treatment of pamphlets from the departmjnt concern ing the country Harry Leon Wil son called the green land. Have Couragel The department sends out about one million folders a year in answer to inquiries and to adorn travel bureaus throughout the country. Last year nearly lia.uuu inquiries were received by the department a lot of per sons intrigued by the green land. .Radiator of your car crack ing right now with the cold? Water pipes frozen?

Feb. 2 U.R Gerhart Eisler is one of three top Ger man communists believed direct ing the new baby blockade of Berlin, west German sources said today. Eisler, former top communist agent in the United States, es caped to Germany after stowing away on the Polish ship Batory out of New York last year. The political editor of the British-sponsored German paper Die Welt said Eisler and two other communists had been ap pointed to an action committee to direct the baby blockade. He identified the other two as Walter Ulbricht. reputedly the Kremlin favorite in Germany, and Frilz Ebori. communist mayor of cast Berlin and on of Chicago Discovers Better House Way In Building Code Chicago (U.R) A "modern ized" building code is expected to provide housing for many more persons in the nation's sec ond most populous city. The code, approved by unani mous vote of the city council, was hailed bv Leverett Lyon, chief executive officer of the Chicago Association of Com merce and Industry, as an "im portant step for great economy and efficiency." Estimates of the number of dwelling units that could be pro vided under the less restrictive rules ran up to 25,000. Lyon said the new code would be "a good model for other cities with out moded building regulations." Inside City Limits Prefabricated houses for the first time can be built inside the city limits. Plywood, wallboard and other materials that meet certain tests can be used in home construction. The flexibility of the new code allows builders to use any of more than 80 combinations of various materials that meet , health and safety tests. Previous ly they had to choose from a list of seven specified by city ordi nance. Cost Not So High "Builders in Chicago now can take advantage of new housing developments," Lyon said. "At the same time, manufacturers wil be encouraged to develop even better, less costly, more ef ficient materials. Most of the changes are applic able in the area outside the city's tire limits, ' the most congest ed area around the Lood district. This area takes up about 36 of tne city s ill square miles. Sod House Ranked Best For Nebraska Broken Bow, Neb. ftl.R) In 1889, Milt Whitney Irrought his new bride from Iowa to a sod house near here. Sixty years la ter, Mr. and Mrs. Whitney still are living in a sod house and they won t live any place else. Whitney, now 84, and his 83 year-old wife, Annie, refuse to leave the comfort of their home, although they could move into a more modern house. "Our daughter and son lust about have fits,' 'said Milt. "But this is where I brought Annie in 1889 from Iowa. We learned that we could stay if we made some thing from nothing." Rents Out Land From nothing, the Whilncys nave built up a quarter-section farm and equipment. Now Whit ney rents out most of the land. But they still continue to live on the farm. They started out with a one-room "soddy," but now they live in a five-room house finished just after World War I. "I call this place 'Poverty Hill," Whitney said. "It looks like sin on the outside, but it's comfortable. Sod is a good insu lator." "I wouldn't die any place but in this old sod house," said Mrs. Whitney. Tallahassee, Fla .

S. At what ago should a child begin brushing his teeth? When all the primary teeth have erupted, which is usually between the ages of two and three years. Should a parent help th child with his ioothbrushing? Yes. In fact the parent will have to do most of the real brushing for some time. The child should be permitted to wield the brush first and then the parent should take over and complete the job. In this way the child will develop the habit of regular toothbrushing. What li th best method of brushing th leethf There are several approved Singing Customers Make Barmen Weep Davenport, la. (U.R) When happy customers sing, barkeen- ers and tavern operators here weep. Iff because of the federal cabaret tax. In the last few weeks, several tavern operators paid taxes of $300 to $1,000 to the federal gov ernment because Investigators tor the internal revenue depart ment decided the men actually were operating "cabarets." One tavern operator said he had to pay the tax because a group of spirited customers were singing as tney stood at the bar. However, he said he did employ a piano player to "liven up" the piace on rrmay and Saturday nignu. THE TO methods. One good method is this: With the jaws held slightly apart, brush the teeth of each jaw separately. Place the bristles on the gum and brush the up per teeth with a downward mo tion. Reverse the procedure for the lower teeth, brushing up ward. Give at least five strokes to each group of teeth covered by the brush. The grinding sur faces should be cleaned with a scrubbing motion. It is import ant to brush the tooth surfaces that touch the tongue as well as those that touch the checks. Whan should th teeth be brushed? To obtain the best results, the brushing should be done imme diately after eating whenever possible, because food debris that adheres to the teeth Is one source of tooth decay. This Is especially true of sweets. Which Is better, tooth powder or past? There is no essential differ ence in the cleansing properties of tooth powder and tootli paste. For children a paste is probably preferable because it is easier to handle and therefore less sub ject to waste. Don gum chewing help or harm th teeth?
