FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH
ORGANIZATION OF EDITORS AND
DRUGGISTS COVERING WIDE
TERRITORY WITH
BENEFICIAL
RESULTS

Our last issue contained an an
nouncement Of the organization Of
the American Drug and Press AS
ISOLATION, the membership of which
consists exclusively of newspaper
men and druggists throughout the
United States, who have undertaken
to cope with the prepared medicine
situation, in the interest of the pub
lie health, realizing the many inef-
ficient preparations that have for
many years been sold to the public,
without giving them the benefit
claimed for them.
We are pleased to state that the
association has sprung rapidly from
the beginning. Newspaper men and
druggists have been quick to recog-
nize the fact that in this association
lies the solution of the "patent
medicine" problem. The big pat
ent medicine houses have been
built up unsuspectingly by the news
papers and druggists of the country,
and now these same professions pro-
pose to join hands for the benefit
of the public, in advertising and
selling preparations, the contents Of
which they know, and the merit Of
which they are confident
A complete line of medicinal. an
tiseptic and toilet preparations, and
many other items of general use,
are being manufactured in the labor
atories of the association, from
formulas adopted by the association
after the most careful and conscien-
tious Investigations, selected from
hundreds of formulas submitted by
members Of the association in all
parts of the country.
There are no secrets-the ipgre-
dents Of every preparation are
known to every druggist who sells
them, no poisonous or Injurious
drugs, nothing but absolute purity
in every instance; something which
the public can place dependence up
on, being assured that they will get
the very best produced.
The goods are sold as reasonable
as it is possible to produce reliable
preparations. They are being made
by association labor, in the associa-
ton laboratories, purchased direct
by the druggists belonging to the
association, and sold without mid
clemens profit.
These goods are not "cure-alls."
There is specific remedy or prep
aration for each ailment or purpose
compounded especially for
that purpose. They are put up in
beautiful attractive packages, full
measure, with the purity and quail
ity guaranteed.

This is perhaps the most hazard

life. Positively the climax of reck-

Thereafter he frequently visits Mar

young people in a loving embrace.
RAYMOND is forbidden the premises.
The girl pines for her lover and her
injury grows worse. Her condition
brings the old man to reason and he
recalls Raymond and love proves an
excellent physician.

EASTERN OREGON
CHAMPIONSHIP WON
BAKER CITY AGAIN GOES
DOWN TO DEFEAT
Contest Won in First Half-Claims of
Pendleton High Team Are Now Un-
disputed.

To the Pendleton high school bas-
ketball team belongs the title Of un-
disputed champions of eastern oregon
by virtue of the victory last night
over the Baker high school by the
score Of 81 to 10. This is the second
defeat the local boys have admins
tered 70 this team this season, and as
they have taken two games from the
best La Grande team, one from Union
high school, and one from Athena
high, there are no grounds for any
other contender to their claim.
The game last night was in some
respects better than the one the night
before. Like it, 1t was fiercely con-
tested throughout, but unlike the
Mormon game, it was won in the first
half instead of the last Throughout
It was extremely rough and at times
it resembled football more than the
indoor game.
The home boys started their scor-
ing machine at the first whistle.
Houser was out OF the game on ac-
count Of an attack or Ia grippe, but
Fee. who replaced him, got the ball
On lue jump anu SUM Idu S-AI IL
through the iron hoop and then on
until the close Of the half, goal fol-
lowed goal until the score stood 90 to
G.
In the second half the visitors took
a brace and fought like demons to
overcome the lead which the Pen
dleton tossers had, but the best they
could do was TO hold their own and
when the final whistle blew they had
run up 13 more points, while the
local team had scored rourteen.
In mentioning Individual players
Chapman deserves considerable cred
it for the way in which he demon
strated that he could come back" as
he more than redeemed himself fol
his inability 10 locate the basket the
night before. Fourteen Of the "a
points were made by him last night
Boylen had pitted against him IL
Bronaugh one of the hardest playinl
guards seen on the local floor : /!
season. To many he seemed at time
unnecessarily rough but apparentl!
he realized that he had to be on tol
OF his man at all times to keep hin
from dropping the ball into the bas
ket with too great a frequency. A

one Of these was unanimously pro
nounced to be the most wonderful

SERMON PREACHED ON
'THE TEN VIRGINS

THE Ten Virgins" was Evangelist
Lewtas' theme at the Methodist
Episcopal church last night. He
specially emphasized the Importance
of Christian lives that should be a
light and inspiration to others.
His illustrations were original and
forceful closing with a vivid picture
of laundering of the Central Ameri-
ca some years since when a compan-
ion ship urged the captain to send all
his crew and passengers on board his
vessel. The captain insisted upon
waiting until the morning. But in the
darkness OF the night the Central
Americas lights disappeared and ev-
cry soul on board was lost.

basket ever made in this city. To the
spectators it seemed the speedy little
player leaped fully as high as the
basket after the ball and actually
placed it in the goal. Fee proved that
he has great possibilities in him and
won much applause last evening in his
initial appearance on the first team.
The Jordan brothers were again in
evidence by their superior guarding
and made It very difficult for the op-
posing forwards TO get shot at their
goal.
For Baker, Howard at left forward
was the most notable performer, un-
less it was Bronaugh at guard. Ten
of the points made were by this clev-
er player by goals from the field. Pot
ter. the diminutive little forward who
went in the second half, also comes in
for a share of the honors for the way
in which he handles himself.
