Entered at the postoffice at Nyssa, Oregon, for transmission through the United States Mails, as a second class matter under the act of March 3, 1878. One of the Greatest Killers ... Dr. Paul Dudley White, a world-famous American cardiologist and founder and former president of the American Heart association, calls heart disease “one of the largest epidemics in medical history.” Certainly the record in Oregon does nothing to dispute O. Dr. White’s assertion, as diseases of the heart are the greatest killers in our state O as well as in the nation. The November bulletin of the Oregon o State Board of Health reported 4,606 deaths from diseases of the neart during the first nine months of 1959, an increase of 11.8 percent against the same nine-month period of the previous year. The final figures for all of 1959 are not compiled as yet, but there is no reason to believe they will make a substantial difference. All of which points up a very definite fact: there is a tremendous job to be done in the field of heart research. Faced by such a staggering death rate, no thinking Ore gonian can afford to play a “head in the sand” role, or let someone else worry about it. The simple truth is that all of us should do what we can to assist in the fight agF.inst cardiovascular diseases. True, not many of us are qualified to undertake heart research, but this does not mean there is nothing we can do. We can become a part of the research by supporting the current Heart Fund campaign of the Oregon Heart association, an affiliate of the American Heart associa tion. There are thousands of dedicated scientists who are willing to carry on the research, but they look to us for financial assistance. A very great percentage of these scientists could fatten their bank accounts considerably by devoting their time and talents in other directions. But . . and thank the Lord for people like these . . . they are willing and anxious to work around the clock in their laboratories, seeking answers that might save us, members of our family and our friends. It would seem that the least we can do is to help them help us. You can do this by contributing to the Heart Fund when a neighbor comes to your door on Sunday, Feb. 28, or by the simple process of just putting your contribution into an envelope and mailing it to HEART, care of the postmaster in the city where you live.

Feb. 22, 1960 To The Gate City Journal:— Can I beg a small space in your paper to express gratitude for . those who received checks from the Kingman Kolony Drainage district and to L. L. Kreager and committee for the valuable time and years spent in unraveling that job. That was a job that should have been done years ago by an elected board of the District. All deceased years ago. It had become more law ridden and complicated as the years went by. No one who has never undertaken such a job can conceive how many laws they will run against for a simple job. So it is the least we can do to express our gratitude for a job well done in unraveling a very complicated and soul trying job. C. M. Beaumont. Girl Scout NEWS MRS.
