THE EVENTNO HERAI-D. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON October IB, 1031 Editorials News of Other Days Place Names Women's Features PAfJB M)UR Coordinate Relief Efforts Place Name Origins Intrigue A Tonic for Our Complex A Reasonable Program rpHESB newspapers have said before, and repeat now, that the effective relief program in Klamath Falls must be a coordinated program. It must be carried out with each active agency un derstanding definitely what the others are doing, and with some central or ganization acting as a clearing house for such information' and the preven tion of duplicated effort It is a simple matter of cooperation and control. This doe not mean that the separate agencies cannot carry on separate re lief programs and bring aid to those they wish to aid. It means, rather, that such activities will be encouraged and facilitated, and will be prose cuted with the assurance they are do ing the most good. It must be recognized that churches, lodges and other organizations have certain work they choose to do along this line, and that such is their right. But at the same time, it is reasonable to ask these agencies to keep the gov- ernor's committee, which is the central relief organization, informed of the work they are doing and the parties they have benefited, in order that the relief may be spread out as far as pos sible and as fairly as possible among the deserving. Our feeling is that the people of Klamath Falls who are big enough and public-spirited enough to take an in terest in such work as aiding their fel lows in time of distress can be counted on to enter into a sane, cooperative and coordinated relief program. Bits of This and That A CURRENT suggestion is that chil dren likely to cross or play in the street be dressed in bright colors, such as red, that passing motorists may see them1 more easily and avoid accident Not a bad idea, unless it turns out that a patch of red has the same effect on motorists it has on hunters. Incidentally, the Coos Bay Times is out with a prize proposal that those who would escape the bullets of quick trigger hunters dress as nearly as pos sible to resemble a five-point buck, rather than in the traditional red hat and brown coat Our idea of - the safest thing for the deer-hunter to do is to dress himself in a blue serge suit and spend the day at the office. Oh, well, nobody will be taken for a quail or pheasant anyhow. Seventy-three days until Christmas. Oregon Defies The South -OREGON'S challenge to the football supremacy of the south holds the limelight of Pacific coast gridiron in terest next Saturday. On that day, at Palo Alto, the orange and black of Oregon State college will be pitted against the cardinal of Stanford, while on down at Los Angeles the green war-, riors of the University of Oregon will seek to tear down the proud banner of mighty Troy. .The succession of gridiron defeats suffered in recent years by the Oregon schools at the hands of the big Cali fornia, institutions gives cause for little current hope for their chances in Sat urday's games. - The Oregon and Ore gon State supporters have - gotten so they rather expect defeat and that is bad. It is not over-rating the importance of football to say that it would be a good thing for the Oregon complex, in general, if either or both Oregon teams were to overturn tradition Saturday and achieve victory. Even the Stan ford and U. S. C. fans among cs prob ably would feel none too badly about such an eventuality. We lean too easily toward the idea that our big, important and ambitious neighbor to the south ean do just about everything better than we can. And, what is more, victories Satur day are not impossible. Both teams have fighting chances, and, sometimes, when the spirit is there a fighting chance is all that is needed. About a New Feature A BOUT the origins of place names there is something intensely inter esting. They have led some men to devote a good part of their lives in delving into local history, determining just how names were originally ap plied to geographical features. Such a study of Oregon was made by Lewis A. McArthur, and finally combined into a book, "Oregon Geo graphical Names," which has been widely praised and accepted as au thentic source-book for Oregon history 'and geography. Between the covers of this book are many items of interest to people of the Klamath Basin. Descriptions of geo graphical locations in this county, and their name origins, are given. The Herald and News will select and pre sent one of these each day as a fea ture of this editorial page. The series begins with the story of Keno. We recommend this new feature for approval.

But that was nonsense the nolle hsd been close, plain. You couldn't bear noise from the outside clearly In here. In this great beavy-walled house with the thickly shuttered windows. The silence began to tear at her norves. Gasping with excitement she reached out suddenly and jerked .open the door. The room was brightly lighted, but empty. She looked about, dumfounded, almost ready to believe that her seniles had tricked her. Then she looked down, and there on the floor lay the crum pled figure of Mrs. Jupiter, the white hair awry where the dia mond headdress had been ruth lessly enatrhed from It, the gold J ress twisted about her knees, the poor, wrinkled old face hag gnrd but strangely peaceful un der the searching glare of the lights. An old pslr of felt house slippers covered her feet. Her hsnds, barren now of rings, till clutched something which she held clasped tightly between the palms, still firmly grasped to gether on her breast It was the ruby necklace. But It was the spot In her fore head, just below the hairline, from which a alow ooxe of blood trickled and ran redly down the temple Into the snow white hair, that drew Mary'a horrified gate.

With her last breath aha had protected It; the coli of blood-red stones be tween her fingers testified to her success. The thief had not been able to get It away from her, but hla balked fury had cost her her life. see A scream broke from the girl's lips, and without looking where she was going she backed away from the figure on the floor and stumbled through the first door that presented itself, the door Into Mrs. Jupiter's bedroom. She closed the door and leaned against It, shaking, her knees knees nearly giving under her. She tried to collect her thoughts. Suppose It had been money, then, that Eddie needed She ran from room- to room, stumbling In her haste, opening doors, calling. There was no sign of disturbance In the other rooms. Her own door was open. It Ed die had been there, he had gone. She stood In the hall, looking from one blank door to another, calling softly, "Eddie, Eddie, It's me, Mary! Oh, Oh, Eddie-boy. dear, where are you?" The silence seemed unnatural. She broke Into helpless sobs. Suddenly It csme to her thst what she had been thinking wan simply fantastic. Eddie had had nothing to do with this. More than likely the poor boy bad not even come yet. Something had hnppened to delay him. She look ed at her wrist watch.

(To B Continued) Klamath Names KF,VO (Prom "Oregon Geographic Names' by Lewis A. McArthur.) Thore are several stories about th nam ot this place. Captain O. C Applegat says that th nam first suggested was Klam ath River, but postal authorities objected because ot th similarity t Klamath falls. Captain Ap plegat then suggested th nam Plevna, and thla nam for th oftic was adopted, but later the office was moved away to Juniper Ridge, alone with the nam. This Incensed local patrons and they secured a new office and named It Keno for Captain J. D. Ferree's dog. Nellie Doten. postmaster at Keno In Ills'. In formed th writer that ber fath er surveyed and platted the towuslt. and named It Doten. The nam waa objected to tor poe toff Ice becans ot th similar ity to Dayton. According to her version, th nam Keno was then adopted for th office on account of Captain Feme's bird-dog. Th platted nam of th plac Is sUU said to b Doten. Keno, the dog, waa named after th popu lar card cam ot earlier days. Fashion Tips Oily skin 1 caused by too re laxed or too active pores. If tiny beads ot oil show through your powder and spoil your well groomed look. It your face shines It perspiration as too free, if your pore ax eoars and yonr face nas a cloudy look, your skin Is undoubtedly too oily and yoa shonld start Immediately to give It proper care. Before yoa go to bed, wash your face thoroughly with plenty of soap and water. Now soak cotton pads In cleanser which contains no oil and cleanse yonr throat and face with It- It will clean deep Into the pores where the soap and water failed to reach. Dip a good sited cotton pad In Ice water, wring It out, and soak It In an aatrlngent (double atrengtb). Pat your face until the aatrlngent Is absorbed by th pore. In th morning repeat th pro cess of the night before. You probably wUl not need to use any kind of a powder base, but It yon do, get a greaseless lotion or a llqnld powder base. Pay attention to yonr diet. Ton may be eating too much rich food containing fats and oils. Stick to fresh vegetables. green salads, and coarse breads until your akin become mora healthy. If your fan gets shiny dur ing the day, remove all your maxe-up witn s liquid cleanser, pat on an astrlgent, and then make up yonr face again. Make-up lotion, cream rouse. and powder are the three cosmet ics for the oily akin. The use of dry range Is optional. Of course. you will need lipstick but don't experiment with grease-paint eye shadow until the oily condition is corrected. It would probably blend very well but It might slip downward around your eyes Instead of ataylng where you put It, and aye-shadow should never be smeared under the eyes or too far out on the corners.

Health Talks Fever la generally considered to mean any condition ot the human body In which th tem perature le recorded above th normal. Normal, as Indicated by th little red arrow on th ther mometer, ta Ml decree P. or 17 dgre C. Thermometers are graded from II to tut; some limes from SO to tit. Seldom, however, do human being reach either of these extreme temper atures. Th temperature ot birds vary between 104 and 101 degree F. Moat animals bar temperature somewhat higher than that of man. The temperature of rab bits vary from 101 to 10 de gree P. Much depends, ot course, oa th way la which th tamporatnr I recorded. A ther mometer placed In th mouth with th Up held tightly abut will. It th person la normal, re cord U.S. A thermometer placed under tb arm will record around 07. to 0. A thermometer placed In the other entrances and axlta of th body may re cord around 0 to H O. There may be variation la th tem perature, which occur early In th morning, to th hlgbeel tem perature, which occurs law in the afternoon. It ta Interesting to know that If a person works at night and sleeps during the day, the readlnga may be re- vereso. Fever may reanlt not only from disturbance of the beat regulat ing mechanism of the body, but directly through disturbances of tb blood or ot th breathing rate. Th recording. of fever la Im portant for the physician, because by It be la able to make dlagnosee of conditions In which the fever Is distinctive. In some conditions. such aa pneumonia, typhoid fever, the fever la usually htgh and atari high. In conditions Ilka tubercu- loioe and general Invasion ot the body by septle germs, th fever Is low la th morning and low In th afternoon. In sum forma of ma larial a fever occurs that lasts about tight hours and develops every other day; In other forms ot malarial th lever lasta about eight hours, but occurs only ev ery three days.

Thar Is another view that fever helps to control the development of bsrterla la the body because the cells, being stimulated to ac tivity, kill bacteria uor rapidly.
