Tillamook Talk to Drafted Men. ----- o------ Captain Russell, a medical officer of the U. S. Army, from Camp Lewis, addressed the men called In the draft last Sunday afternoon. The captain gave a very Interest ing and instructive talk on how to preserve the health and avoid var ious contagious diseases. If we would all live as Capt. Russell says the sol dier lives we would be a stronger healthier people. There is less sick ness In the army than in any other place in the country. Soon as the soldier reaches the camp he is placed in quarantine for three weeks to be sure that any disease to which he may have been exposed before com ing to the army will not be commu nicated to other soldiers. After le is out of quarantine his chances of con- trading cotagious diseases is very Blight. As to veneral diseases the cap- tain said the drafted men coming to Camp Lewis, from citic life in the State of Oregon, were far more free of such diseases than the men from any other state, this should be a source of pride to every citizen Oregon. Negro's Patriotic Wit. ------o —. The policy of giving negro regi- nients negro officers has caused great controversy north and south. I have myself noticed in moving among the soldiers of our army a very marked uwillingness in many quarters of white officers to salute the suyerlor black officers. There have been sev eral unpleasant Incidents in conse quence. In the south, naturally, this blameworthy attitude is more in evi dence In South Carolina prejudice against the black man is. I think, more marked than in any other state of the Union. 1326 1149 1023 1446 834 1284 1437 1716 1611 1425 933 936 1140 1284 1191 1326 1704 1800 1419 1410 1747 930 1275 Pct.

The white officer’s avoided giving the .salute. The black man looking at them steadily, quickly took off his coat, hung it on a chair, and said: “Salute that gentleman and I am satisfied.” The salute was immediately given. A big man, a brave and a witty, that negro major. —The Outlook. T T he L atest î HAVE MANY QUAINT BELIEFS Alaskan Natives Probably as Supersti tious as Any Race on the Face of the Earth. In Alaska the natives have all kinds of superstitious beliefs. They believe that everything has a spirit, and that these spirits must be respected or else bad luck will come to them. For In stance, they must not throw away any old clothing, nor burn It. for that would be the same as destroying a part of themselves. They must make a bundle of the old clothes and put It on the branches of a large spruce tree out side the village. All fish bones are carefully put away In a basket to be taken out to the middle of a river, stream or lake and there thrown over board. This Is done so that every single bone, after it is put back Into the water, will turn Into a fish, and this Is sure to keep up the supply. When a child Is born the father has to put away all tools that are made of Iron or steel and Is not al lowed to use them for 20 days. Dur ing that time he Is not allowed to go outside to do any work or any hunt ing. Should he do any of these things It would surely cause the death of the baby. When a child dies It is not burled, but Is wrapped In a bundle and placed at the foot of a spruce sapling. If the tree dies within a year the spirit of the child dies also. When a grown person dies the body Is kept at least three days In the room In which It has died. When the time for burial comes the body is burled on a hillside or a high bank facing the river. There Is the village of departed spirits on the side facing the river and on the other side the spirits of the dogs who have died and who belong to the people whose spirits are there. The spirit of an old woman takes care of these dogs.—Southern Workman. Politeness Is Too Neglected. Courtesy ! Prof. William Lyon Phelps of Yale university is right In saying that the young men of today possess even a greater power of endur ance than their fathers. The war has demonstrated that the luxuries of mod ern life have not produced a degenerate race. Our own heroes of 1776 were no more hardy than the young men In khaki today after six months of train ing. The endurance of the modern sol dier is not alone a matter of physique or physical strength but of moral stamina as well. What we need to cultivate is not simply a sturdy man hood through military discipline, but also to give our boys and girls train ing in courtesy. Military training teaches obedience, a quality that our youth sorely need to acquire, but we need to Instill Into the minds of our children In the public schools lessons of politeness and respect for the rights of others. No other nation has neglected po liteness as we have done.—Leslie's. Cement From Sugar-Beet Waste. A result of experiments in French factories Is the production of an ex cellent cement as a by-product of beet sugar relining. The first step in the production of sugar from beets is boil ing them. It has heretofore been cus tomary to throw away as valueless the scum formed on the caldrons. But It has now been discovered that this scum contains large quantities of car bonate of lime. It Is estimated that 4,000 tons of the carbonates can be recovered from 70.000 tons of beets. To this quantity of the carbonate 1,100 tone of clay la added, the resultant product being a good cement, The beet scum is pumped Into large reeer- voir» and allowed to evaporate for a certala length of time before being mixed with the clay. It la then stirred or beaten for an hour before being fed Into rotary ovens such m Is used In making Portland ceuient Hol Ie HU Ufi«.
