One Year.................... $6.00 Six Months...................$4.00 February Is Heart Month February is Heart Month, and this is a good time to think about the 20th Century Epidemic - Heart Disease. According to Dr. Howard Stroud, Executive Director of the Oregon Heart Association, 54 percent of all deaths in Oregon are caused by heart disease, and 270,000 Oregonians have this disease. It is our leading cause of death and disability, and a much bigger killer than cancer. Oregon leads the nation in heart research, and many of the new surgical techniques have been developed here in Oregon as a result of the funds we have invested in this program In fact, we should think of our giving to this program as an investment, not a donation. We commend Acting Police Chief Pancho Rios, and his co-chairman. Bill Marcum, for undertaking this very important campaign in Nyssa They and their volunteers, and we are glad to see many of them are high school stu dents, will call on you in the next two weeks. Give, or rather, INVEST GENEROUSLY. It seems to be the most important campaign that any of us can participate in to save our lives. The Oregon Heart Association has listed 12 rules for us to follow to become a candidate for... The Coronary Club. Unfortunately, most of us follow at least a few of these rules, and perhaps it’s time to take heed. Are you a candidate? 1. Your job comes first; personal considerations are secondary. 2. Go to the office evenings, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. 3. Take the brief-case home on the evenings when you do not go to the office. This provides an opportunity to review completely all the troubles and worries of the day. 4. Never say NO to a request. Always say YES. 5. Accept all invitations to meetings, banquets, commit tees, etc. 6. Do not eat a restful, relaxing meal--always plan a conference for the meal hour. 7. Fishing and hunting are a waste of time and money- you never bring back enough fish or game to justify the expense. 8. It is a poor policy to take all the vacation time which is provided for you. 9. Golf, bowling, pool, billiards, cards, gardening, etc., are a waste of time. 10. Never delegate responsibility to others--carry the load at all times. 11. If your work calls for traveling--work all day and drive all night to make your appointment for the next day. 12. Smoke one to two packs of cigarettes a day. OBSERVATION ON DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME Each evening, as I enjoy the longer daylight hours after work, I forget how much I disliked the darkness when I went to work. Knife & Fork Slated Tuesday Park benches long have had the reputation as roman tic meeting places--but ice skating rinks, no Yet, if it hadn’t been for a chance meeting on ice in a Moscow skating pavillion, Nila Magidoff, the guest spea ker of the Knife A ForkClub of Malheur County and he roine of the book called “Nilla” written by Willie Snow Estheridge, wouldn’t be here to address the club Tuesday, February 19, 1974 at 7:30 p.m at its dinner meeting at the East Side Cafe, Ontario.
