Class Choice Care Urged While the majority of GI students who quit school list financial diffi culties and illness as their stated reasons, a big factor Is their failure to take advantage of advisement of fered by the veterans administra tion, which would direct them to fields of study related to their abili ties. This was the general opinion voiced by educators from 29 state and independent colleges of West ern Oregon who met in Portland recently to discuss current problems faced by veterans in school. The n eeting. called by the Multnomah county veterans service committee. included officials from the veterans administration, the Oregon depart ment of veterans' affairs, the Ore gon state employment service and the federal veterans employment service. Of GIs who quit school, many are those who had attached a "halo of glamor" to a particular field of study, only to have this halo "evap orate" after they had entered school and found the subject dull, too dif ficult or not to their, liking, in the words of one college representative. The educators agreed veterans should be urged to take VA advise ment. Sprague River There have been several cases of illness here this week.

M.D. Written for NEA Service Rats carry diseases, which human beings can catch Rats sometimes attack human beings, particularly infants and agi people. Rats de stroy a great del of food and cause much property damage. Probably there are more rats In the United States than there are people. They can live In almost any cli mate and eat everything that human beings eat. as well as other things. They can adapt themselves much better to change and disaster than humans can.

Rats carry such diseases as plague i the black death of the Middle Ages, typhus or jail fever, and rat bite fever. Plague Is present In rats In many parts of the world. It eventually kills the rats themselves. When this happens, the rat flea, which harbors the plague germ, leaves the dead rat's body and seeks the nearest alternative host, which may be a human being. A study, made of attacks on hu man beings by rnts In Baltimore, showed that nearly 100 persons had been oltten so badly by rats that they had to go to a hospital for treatment. This same report sug gested that rats like human blood, and thu the reason they bite people Is that they are hungry.' The amount of Injury which rats do and their burden on our economy Is almost past belief. Several years ago It was calculated that the an nual damage done by rats In Wash ington and Baltimore alone was between S4OO.0OO and $700,000. This represents an average loss of SI. 27 a year per person. Destroy Corn. Poultry These rodents eat corn during growth and In cribs. A single rat can eat from 40 to SO pounds of corn a year. They destroy mer chandise, attack poultry, kill wild birds, ducks, woodcocks and song birds, and, attack bulbs, seed and plants. There seems no doubt that rats should be hunted mercilessly on all fronts. Even If this is done, there Is some doubt as to whether, in the long run. rats or human beings will survive longer In this world. The loctor Answera Question: What causes hallucina tions? Answer: An hallucination is some thing which. Is perceived that is, felt, tasted, heard or seen but is not real. Became they are not real, the cause Is not known, and they may arise .rom shock or mental disease. WANTED Sales Manager FOR FA MO I' 8 KIRBV HOME RENOVATION SYSTEM APPLY LcRoy E.
