DESERVES LOYALTY

The Oregon State Editorial Associa-
tion deserves the absolute loyalty of
every editor and publisher in Oregon
and the fullest measure of cooperation,
said G. Lansing Hurd, of the o. A. C..
extension. in recent address. 1t is
the greatest opportunity for the up
building Of the industry from CON-
mercial standpoint and increase of the
dignity :and effectiveness of the news
paper business we have ever had.
We must be persistently loyal to this
institution of mutual helpfulness and
the protection of each other and the
protection of the capital invested in
the business.
Under the magnificent leadership Of
President Brodie and Secretary Bates
who have given so patriotically 'and
unselfishly of their time and effort, the
newspaper business of Oregon has
been helped in many ways. Newspa-
pers are more prosperous and irfiuen-
tial than ever before; newspaper men
are more contented with their lot and
have greater self respect.

TOM AK|Ns WAS ONE
Of H|TCHCOCk'S z AIDS
Candidate for the Senate Was In
Close Touch With Peoples
Movement for Hughes.

Missouri Republicans consider it
significant that during the p%re.conven-
ton campaign Mr.. Frank H. Hitchcock
had but two %lieutenants around his
headquarters in Chicago, and one Of
these ~lieutenants was Thos. ]. Atkins
Of st. Louis county, who is a. candi-
date for United States senator at
the Republican primaries.
Mr.. Atkins claims are borne out
by the records that he is an original
Hughes man in this state. AS early
as last February he began sending out
literature to his friends in which he
called attention to the fact that the
people would want Mr.. Hughes as
their candidate and that in his opin-
ion he was sure to be nominated.
ut is int as necessary" says Mr..
Atkins, "for the Republicans to have
the senate and the house as 1t Is
to have the President, in a measure,
and I should think that the men elect
ed to the United States Senate es-
pecially, should be very close to the
new President-with him in spirit and
policy"
Here is the epitome Of Thomas J.
Akins' candidacy for United States
senator as seer by the editor of the
Ozark Magazine" which gives IL
reasons why he should be nominated
by the Republicans at the August
primaries:

dence Of the people Of Missouri.

MORTALITY
But Little Disease Among
Children.
few DEATHS
Children Have Been Remarkably
Healthy During Present
Summer.

infant mortality during the present
summer season has been very small.
In fact, the condition of children for
this long stretch of hot weather has
been remarkable.
1t is interesting to discuss this
matter at a time when physicians and
newspapers have given much publici-
ty to infantile paralysis which has
been more than usually exploited.
In speaking of the healthy condi-
tion of children in Bridgeton yester-
day a local physician pointed out that
there had been much less illness here
among children since June than at
any time since he had practiced his
profession. Not only has there been
but little sickness, but the death arte
has been practically nothing.
Thus far during August there have
been 10 death certificates filed here,
and but three of these are infants.
With the exception of these three, all
the persons certified are from "a to 81
years of age.
The physician quoted says that the
improved sanitary conditions and the
education of mothers as to feeding
children, has caused this remarkable
improvement There is nowadays but
very little sickness, familiarly known
as summer complaint" and kindred
troubles, and the youngsters are gen.
orally in fine shape, healthy and hap
py.

AUTOS RUSH
10 TO FIRES

Commissioner VIM. Murphy directs
attention to the fact that so soon as
the fire alarm is sounded, there is an
immediate rush upon the part of many
people in automobiles and motor cy-
cles in the direction of the box from
which the alarm is turned in. I'M
mediately there is provided a very
considerable congestion, and in the
excitement of the chase many of the
machines exceed the speed limit, and
but few of the automobiles are driv-
en- with any degree of caution and
safety. The practice, the Commission
er says, is an exceedingly dangerous
one, and there have been minor acci-
dents, and more serious ones just
averted. Unless there is some i'm
prcvement in the condition, the Com
missioner says that it will be neces-
sary to have an ordinance passed
regulating the matter.

STIRRED UP
HORNETS NEST

Once upon time there was hornets
nest along East Avenue; some boys
found it. and succeeded in tearing it
down. Boys can mostly accomplish
this feat with hornets nest, and
"get away with it." Last Monday
morning they returned to the charge
and thought they would stone it a
little more
Nothing coming forth, they suggest
ed to little Bobbie that he kick it to
pieces. He did. Two hornets left
their home, and, in retaliation, chased
after Bobbie. They got him; got him
where it was tender, and the yells
that Bobbie sent forth caused the
neighborhood to think that something
had come to pass.
Bobbe's mother with mud plasters
and other concomitants, succeeded
finally in allaying the disturbance.
