life and limb to find "something he might want." Usually you
never find it-so in sheer desperation you take what you can
find. And this you send him -with a brief note of apology.

From the whirlpool, Fireman

The painless method-simply stroll into your nearest liquor

"Happy Holiday" in a ieal way. And-that you really mean it.

CARE TO AVOID
1
Since Klamath has been for
tunate in avoiding accidents in
the previous holiday seasons,
Keith Ambrose, fire chief, to
day asked the people of the
city to continue their efforts to
prevent any accidents during
the coming Christmas holidays.
Ambrose also warned against
hazards that might arise this
year, such as substituting can
dles for the usual electric
lights that decorate Christmas
trees. If lights cannot be ob
tained, he said, do not use can
dles or other such dangerous
lighting devices.
At Christmas parties, flimsy
dresses and paper caps around
the fireplace filled with Christ
mas paper and wrappings
should be avoided. To further
prevent possible casualties, he
advises that Christmas trees be
removed and destroyed imme
diately after Christmas Day.
Officers of the National
Safety Council and other safety
agencies are urging Oregon
drivers and pedestrians to drive
and walk more carefully this
year to prevent the customary
trend toward traffic accidents
in the holiday season

TO COMBAT FEVER
PORTLAND, Dec. 18 IP)
Dr. Thomas L. Mcador, city
health officer, today recom
mended a seven-point program
to combat undulant fever in
Portland.
Included in the program are
a code governing the manufac
ture of Ice cream and other
frozen desserts, proper pasteur
ization or aging of cheese and
100 per cent pasteurization of
milk and butter.
His recommendations came
after a survey of 90 ice cream
fountains disclosed high bac
teria count in samples of some
and in a number of containers
used to wash ice cream dippers.
Dr. Meador said the survey
showed that milk products,
other than in bottles and cans,
were not properly controlled.
Portland has had more than
200 cases of undulant fever this
year. ' ,
