THE PICNIC

The meeting Monday pointed an in
valuable Iesson to Hood River folk.
Future meetings Of such nature viii
be all the more successful for il.
Community endeavor will proceed with
more Of a unity Of action. Itswas q
day on which the entire population
Of the valley fogot politics. Old grudges
or religious preferences and partici-
pated in.a.great democratic gathering.
We should get together in such wise
at least once a year. II we do So we
can set pace throughout the coast for
community development.
The events Of Monday 20 a newspa-
per man were something like a three
ring circus, and it is inevitable that
some feature will be missed in the
story that chronicles the joyous happen
ings. But we wish in our passing com
ment to express an appreciation Of the
faithful work Of all committees, from
executive committee all the way down
to each individual community commit
tee. The cooperation that was evil
denced even surpassed that Of war
days, when We were all working for
the great cause for which our BOYS
were fighting.
Space does not permit Of remaining
these committees, but toward all Of
them we feel sure the county feels
deeply grateful

Our great celebration not only laiC
the foundation for better intra-com
munity spirit among us Hood River
residents, but it is already resulting il
a better inter-community spirit. The
DalIes guests of the day as well as the
numerous folk up from Portland came
to know Hood River people as one
community can never know another
merely by heresay. The Dalles Chron-
icle on Tuesday afternoon carried one
of the best accounts ,of the fete that
has appeared. 1t cannot be bettered.
II was written by Ned Baldwin, secre-
tary of Representative Sinnott. We
feel that we are expressing the senti-
ment of every Hood River citizen when
we say, THANK you"

THE OLD OAKEN BUCKET

Time was when men could listen II
"The Old Oaken Bucket" with genuine
appreciation. But the moss-covered
iron bound receptacle of olden time:
has been replaced by faucets and foun.
tains and patent individual drinking
cups. Along with prohibition the
world will lose that wondrous conver-
sational accomplishment of some men
who discoursed with pleasure, and an
actual knowledge of their subject. on
the merits and peculiar qualities of
various vintages, brews and products
of the distillers. 1t was indeed pleas
ure to see the epicurean bon vivant sip
his wine with perfume 20 years old
and compare it with other vlntages.
Alas, he must now satisfy his delicate
palate with an insipid concoctlon of
the soda fountain. The shade of Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson must congratulate
itself that all that was mortal of the
great writer has departed the reformed
earth.
And yet men like to display their
knowledge Of things good to drink in
these days when the sign of the camel
is predominant. The Portland Tele-
gram last week carried news story of |
even greater calamity than the ordin-
ary, telling of the loss, of citizen

story, of Louis Roederer and Berncas.

The general public would have re-
NAMED ignorant but the superior
of the editor of the Port
and Spectator. who hurled a shaft of
Wit at the Telegram's editor, whose
experience in the olden days, presum-
bly, from the Spectator remarks,
ad fitted him for better understand

reivous an error to remain incorrect

!. Our guests seemed to enjoy every
moment of Monday. We are glad that
they carried away with them thoughts
that will linger in their memories and
cause them to remember Hood River
with kindness and interest. Our guest
of honor, Mr.. Benson. must have con-
sidered the great and sincere ovation to
him crowning moment of his life of
hard work and achievement. We are
glad that he knows the hearts of his
countrymen while the current of life
still flows strongly.

THE FAIR

The Hood River county fair should
be better this year than ever before.
1t will have all the impetus of the
Monday celebration behind it. We
were shown to what success we can
carry a venture if we all get behind it..
Fair sentiment already seems fairly
general. But the fair board tells us
that more exhibits and interest is
needed on the part of fruitgrowers.
They want more exhibits of early ap-
pies. If no apples are available they
want the growers of the different dis
tricts to take space for a general
boosting of their district.

but for the second time in the entire
history OF recorded deaths in Maine,
the number OF deaths during 1913 fell
below 11.0e0. This is in sharp con-
trast to the preceding year when the
epidemic Of influenza was at its
height took a death toll of over
14.000.
In explaining the cause for lower
ing the death figure during the past
year, DR.. L. D. Bristol. state COM
missioner of health. says that the
most obvious conclusion is to be
drawn from the doctrine Of the sur
vivai of the 1ttest.
1T would SEEM said DR.. Bristol
Saturday. that during the epidemic
OF 1918, many weaklings who would
normally have died during the sue
ceeding year were taken away by
the disease and that in 1919 the
hardest men and women We're left TO
light a less virulent epidemic and the
usual run OF human ills.
AT any rate, it is generally 10 be
observed that the year following 4
serious epidemic is marked by a
lower death rate.
One obstacle in adopting this con-
clusion absolutely is TO be found in
studying the ravages OF the epidemic
CT 1918 in the training camps. Here
statistics show that the ilaskiest and
apparently most healthy of our sol
diers were overcome by the disease
as readily as their weaker brothers
whom the country's call has passed
by"
The total death figures tor 1919 has
Just been completed by the Division

partment of Health and show 1923

Regarding the comparison between
the two influenza eDidsrnics. the
state Department of Health has the
following figures available. From
Sept. l. 1918 10 March l. 1919. there
were reported to the State authorf-
ties almost $4,000 cases OF influenza
from which 1854 deaths resulted.
