Speaking of food; for perfect
health the system requires a balanc-
ed ration, the right proportion of
the different elements of food. The
Duchess of Marlborough is reported
as declaring at mothers meeting
recently that a we'll cooked meal
is better antidote for drink than
any amount of legislation. Wheth-
er by accident or from thought on
the subject she has given voice to
a very evident fact. The craving oc-
casioned by the absence of some
necessary element in the, food has
been the immediate cause of many
young mans downfall, and when
once the appetite for drink is Gre
ated it is most persistent and diff
cult to overcome. Add to this the
fact that strong drink weakens the
will power and we have the history
of the downfall of most drinking
men.
Dear housewives, as the prepara-
ton of the food consumed depends
upon us we can readily see why
much of the responsibility for the
evils of drink rests with us. Men
will not tolerate physical discom-
fort when an antidote is accessible
and by paralyzing the sensitive
nerves strong drink destroys the
uncomfortable sensation.
How necessary then that we use
intelligence and skill in the prepar-
alton of food. The health, morals
and even the lives of our families
are jeopardized H., disregard of
this necessity. OF course, it takes
work, but would We be with
out work and be nonentities in this
great drama of life? Is it of no
consequence that God has given the
housewife the first and most exalt-
ed station at his command in this
life, our special mission being the
preservation of the human race?
But we have digressed. Our sub
jects was the preparation of food.
We have learned that the most ella
borate dishes are not often the most
wholesome, nutritious or even the
best. Simply prepared food is us
shout d contain all the necessary
ually the most satisfying but it
elements. We may not have a chem
ical knowledge of foodstuffs but a
healthy appetite Graves the proper
foods and experience is an excellent

Terry McKune is no longer manag ger
of the Pendleton ball club. This NOR

boarded No. IL for Portland. He
gave as his reason telegram from
the Kerr-Gifford Grain company of
Portland advising his immediate re-
turn to his old position as bookkeeper
with them because of the busy season
but 1t is believed that the action of
some of the fans in persistently criti-
clzing him on and off the diamond
had something to do with his decis-
ion. His action came Unexpectedly
and was not announced to Nice-presi-
dent Ritner until late in the morning
Al Lodell. popular first baseman of
the team, has been appointed to sue

The resigntion of McKune is quite
likely to preface a considerable shake

BUFFALO NEED NAMES; PERSON SUGGESTING

is an opportunity for some one, in
fact some two, to secure three day

The Roundup association has just
purchased two buffalo. That's a well
known fact, but fact that isn't so
well known Is that the two animals
have never been supplied with names.
The association refuses to have any
nameless stock about but so far none
of the directors have been equal to Sc

POSTAL DEPARTMENT INAUGURATES
CHANGE TO HELP THE SERVICE
PARCEL INSURANCE
RATES CUT IN TWO

Parcel post insurance, rates have
been cut in two and this fact, which
has just begun to be known to local
shippers, is resulting in a distinct in
crease in the amount of insured bus
mess being done by the local postof-
flee, according to local authorities.
The rate now is only five cents on
packages of value of $25 or under,
the old rate of 10 cents still holding
good on values from $25 to $50
Since the establishment of parcel
post, which took over much of the
matter formerly handled by registry
as fourth class. there has been much
confusion among shippers and as a
consequence the protection of the
government. which was formerly
bought as registry. but is now OBJ
tainable as parcel post insurance, has
dwindled.
