PACl FOURTEEN HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SATURDAY, JUNE 5, 1948 Speaker Murel Long Is At Rotary Murel Long, Klamath rancher and owner of the Farmers Air Service, told Rotarlana Friday at their noon meeting of iome of the develop ment and problems of Insect and weed control through application by airplane. New developments In chemicals, airplanes and means of application come so rapidly that It is a prob lem for the air service operator to keep up to date, he said. He said that the U. S. depart ment of agriculture will use appli cation of 2-4.D by airplane at Dia mond lake this year as an experi ment In mosquito control, and pre dicted that in a year or two such control would be general In re creation areas. Big advances have been made In control of the troublesome potato aphid In the Klamath basin. This will mean much to growers of po tatoes for seed, he said. Bill Southwell, KUHS student body president and honorary mem ber of the Rotary club this past year, was presented with a watch by the club. The presentation was . made by Tom Watters. Southwell Introduced Jim Owens, his successor as KUHS president. Ernie Oienger was chairman of the day. CARE Package Proves Easy To Deliver The Klamath basin committee for CARE Issued the following pertinent statement recently: "Father's Day In America is June 20. which re minds us that there are many fa thers In Europe who are doing all that Is humanly possible to survive and to provide a bare living for their families. American fathers should welcome a gift that would bring the necessities of life itself to some not-so-fortunate father. Such a gift would be a receipt for a CARE pack age sent to a father in any of the 16 countries getting CARE service." It's easy to send a CARE package. Mrs. Helen Perry of the Pelican Candy shop, 722 Main, will write out the order, and answer questions about the 11 different types of CARE packages, and the method of de livery. The order is air-mailed to New York, where the address is thoroughly checked, and then sent by air mail to the foreign country, and the package delivered from CARE -warehouse. Each CARE package, whether It be food or clothing or bedding, costs $10. and a money-back guarantee is provided if the package is not de livered. The person placing the order will receive a signed receipt when It is delivered, and often an Interesting letter of thanks, making the gift more personal. A package does not have to be addressed to a specific person. It can be sent simply to "An unemployed father In Vienna. Austria" or to " A father of four small children In Rome. Italy." CARE representa tives In all cities check carefully to see that the package Is delivered to a deserving person. kMsif x I VjL?r "in'ij t ymmmm - :: ; 1 . .t, m4 f--jj lli'r, m m kvfc 1 fail- .11 mi a, ,. , iii -..,,, ll..,.., ,. ik i,. bij-M. jrf.
