BILL-BOARD
By BILL
It has been noted bv this writer
that the dress-up program for our
big rodeo here has fallen down.
There might be numerous reasons
lor this. Perhaps people re slow
startlnir. Perhaps the supply of
Western haberdashery fell below
normal. Perhaps people couldn't
remember where they stored last
year's stuff. Perhaps the weather
bas had something to do with It,
But the least we can do' is urge
people to turn out. In case there
Is any doubt as to how you should
look we include a quick sketch to
sort of give you an idea.
i Speaking of the tfeather I no
ticed yesterday that the city po
lice riding around on the three

fellas, don't you know it was the

that?

The Soviet action in shooting
down an unarmed Swedish rescue
airplane Is reminiscent of a sim
ilar Incident two years ago when
the Russians knocked out a de
fenseless U.S. naval plane in the
came Baltic Sea area,
j The Russians naturally have
come Up with their customary
phony explanations, blaming the
whole thing on the harmless vic
tims, saying they were flying over
Soviet territory and that they fired
first.
i Probably the Kremlin doesn't ex
pect anybody with a clear head
to swallow this guff. It can have
effect only on those deluded souls
who still think there are big grains
Of truth In anything the Russians
ay. Unfortunately, there may be
more of these souls than we like
to concede, since Moscow's trans
parent fabrications about- germ
warlare in Korea seem to have
been accepted by many naive Eu
ropeans. , .
This newest show of Russian de
pravity, however, need not be in
terpreted as a sign that the Soviet
armies are spoiling for a fight. It
may actually, be evidence of the
exact reverse.
What is entirely likely is that
the Russians- have a pathological
lear of being discovered in their
weakness. The sharpest experts we
have on the Soviet Union rate the
Reds seriously weak in important
enonomlo categories vital to the

oblong sign that glows in the dark.
Atlacnea to the side o( ine car.
As a citlien driver I would much
prefer Uiat it be attached to the
back of the vehicle, but the state
officials don't seem to agree with
this theory
Noticed the first new sign a few
davs ago under pleasant circum
stances. A state officer had his car'
parked up by Riverside school and
was out pitching Softball for a
bunch of youngsters Ml the play
ground behind the school.
That's the sort of thing we like
to see, and would like to see more
of. It restores your faith in the

Fire Chief Rov Rowe and his ve

I nresume that the crepe soled

put out to minimize one of the
dangers they faced? Like walking
on slippery pavement? Or was it

share of their industrial production
devoted to the output of arms. But
lt does suggest that this tremen
dous facade of strength might
crumble in a long conflict with
America.
. The Russians dare not let the
legend of their military might lose
force. It Is perfectly ln character
with that purpose to put on an oc
casional show of belligerence in the
general zone of their borders. They
undoubtedly believe they may
thereby suggest to the free world
that Russia's fringe is bristling
with impregnable defense strong I
points.
Such incidents as this have their
value for Russian home consump
tion too. Dictators live on artificial

than to dream up a real live for

Here's a tip from Dr. Dick Cur
rin, the amateur rock wall man.
He doesn't advance his theory as
a scientific fact, but says he's
found that it works with him.
On the evenings that I'm work
ing outside ion the rock wall, of
course! when I've taken chloro
phyll tablets the mosquitoes leave
me alone, he said. When I haven't
taken chlorophyll they start chew
ing. The ony mosquitoes that bite
you. the Doc explained, are fe
males that are ready to lay their
eggs. Mosquitoes (eed on plants,
but the females must have blood
from warm blooded animals or
cold blooded. It doesn't make any
difference to lay their eggs.
Maybe, said he, the chlorophyll
makes you smell like a plant so
they give up hopes of getting any
blood out of you.
Warm blooded animals have
thermostats that keep the blood at
98.6 except when you get the
measles, son cola blooded animals
take on the temperature of Uieir
surroundings . . . but that doesn't
make any difference to mosquitoes:
chlorophyll seems to. Try it.
Thank goodness our medicos are
possessed with scientific curiosity.
We finally have a report on por
cupine as tne Main Meat course.
It was Dr. Arthur Compton who j poocher. go out and kill the porcu

Oh. . (p.
For anyone who hates rats as
much as I do, it Is a pleasure to
comply with Mrs. R's request to
discuss Well's disease.
This is much more a disease of
rats than it is of human beings,
but in rats the disease can last
(or a long time, and these pests
then can become a source of dan
ger to human beings.
The germ which causes Well's
disease is excreted ln the urine of
infected rats, and therefore sewer
workers, coal miners, ditch dig-
gers, fish cutters, or any others
who work in damp places Infested
by rats are liable to catch the di
sease. Indeed, there have' been a num
ber of cases of human disease ac
quired by swimming in contam
inated ponds or canals.
Like other germ diseases of man
kind, there is an interval between
infection and the appearance of the
first symptom which is usually
about eight to 13 days. Once this
period has passed, signs of the di
sease come on rapidly usually with
chills and fever.

your pardner made with the pliers
will appreciate this tip.
It comes from our working Por
cupine Committee member Dale
Prentice. It was a letter from
Frank J. Simpson of Milwaukee.
Ore., that was printed in the Sac
ramento Bee. Like this:
"Pour a few spoonsful of acid
vinegar on the quills then repeat
In five or 10 minutes. Walt a iew
minutes then pour any kind of oil
over the quills and watch results.
The acid removes the lime from
the quills and they simply soften
and wilt, and after the olt Is ap
plied the quills simply pop out with
out touching them. It's painless.
I've done this with perlect results."
So be sure there's vinegar and
cooking oil in your grub box. and
that you have heavy leather gloves.
After you've Dainlesslv treated the
$Dhdah
Headache, pafns In the muscles
and sometimes disturbances in the
digestive tract Or other evidences
of illness are frequent. There are
a number of unpleasant complica
tions of the disease also, and about
one person In 20 who has, a severe
attack dies from the disease.
It is important that an early and
correct diagnosis of Weil's disease
ne made, ana inis is not always
easy because lt resembles other
acute lnfectioas, and since It is not
exactly common, a problem ln diag
nosis is often present.
Furthermore, treatment is not
thoroughly satisfactory, even when
given early. Both penicillin and
aureomycin are used, but their ef
fectiveness in cure is not complete.
Weil's disease is another ex
ample of a condition about which
one beard very little a few years
ago, but which seems to be becom
ing somewhat more common. Per
haps the most Important thing
about it is that lt provides one
more reason for man to wage un
ceasing warfare on rats.
