I'm most happy to exchange views. You're not old fashioned, there Is just a lapse in your memory. We had the same 'love' problems in our day as the teen agers have today. The difference is we had no one to tell them to. You and I made the grade and furthered our education and I'm sure the children of today will also, with the proper direction. It’s so much better for them to get their problems off their minds rather than keep II inside of them the way we did!

Erickson Oregon State Health Officer Only four cases of diphtheria hate been reported in Oregon so far this year, compared to about six cases for this period the past several year». Despite its rarity, diphtheria still poses a threat to the pub lic health, and sharp outbreaks occur from time to time. Still fresh In many peoples’ minds is the potentially-serious incident a few years ago in the upper Willamette valley, involving a specilized children’s school. That incident, and similar out breaks about the same time In Portland’s lower west side dis trict, involved adults, and illus trate the changing pattern of some communicable diseases during recent years. Diphtheria at one time was a major cause of childhood death. Mothers then usually pas sed along a passive immunity to their babies, which lasted per haps »ix months. After that per iod, the child was comparative ly defenseless. Today few mothers can trans mit this natural immunity to their children, because of the rarity of the disease However, protective shots are now rou tinely given during the first few weeks of a baby*« life, and cus tomarily are repeated accord ing to recommended schedule» throughout childhood. As a re sult. diphtheria today is not con sidered a threat to those child ren seen from time to time by the family physician. We adult», however, some time» forget the need for period 1c booster doses. A disease such as diphtheria, prevented by im munization from attacking children, sometimes continues in adults. We are now seeing something of that pattern in paralytic polio, which until the advent of Salk vaccine also was considered a childhood disease. Your physician might feel some boosters sren’t necessary unless a disease Is prevalent or you are facing unusual expos ure. but It would be worth your time to ask his advice the next time you visit his office OPOUR IT!

Elmer Angelsey will also re port on the recent missionary convention in Eugene. The ser vice will be in chargeof the WMS president. Mrs. Everett Lake. The public is invited. From where I sit. count on children to tell the truth— sometimes, the embarrassing truth. Maybe we adults could use more of that. For instance, maybe we ought to admit that tolerance "doesn’t really work” until we eliminate all our intol erances—even to respecting a neighbor's right to enjoy a quiet glass of beer. Good neighborliness begins when in tolerance ends...and. in truth, we all ought to work towards that end. /» Thursday, Dee. 3, 1959 CUTS FUEL BILLS to 40%!
