point Of nausea and vomiting when
subjected to the motion Of trains,
buses, roller coasters, street cars,
and even elevators and automobiles.
The widespread use Of airplanes has
introduced q new medium which
frequently induces motion sickness.
SEASICKNESS IS SERIOUS
The reduced efficiency Of naval
personnel by seasickness is a serious
problem to the Navy. An invading
force hampered by seasickness is
obviously severely handicapped. AL
though seasickness Is frequently
looked upon lightly, 1t is an i'm
portant military problem and vitality
serious to It's victim at any time.
The mechanism Of seasickness Is
complicated and probably results
from various causes. The most po-
tent factor Is considered to be the
stimulation Of the nerve centers in
the brain that induce vomiting by
the effect of a constant shifting Of
the body about Its various axes and
the stimulation Of the organ Of
equilibrium beyond It's tolerance.
CONSIDERATION OF CAUSE
Some maintain that the stimu-
lation arise sin the alimentary
tract, as the motion Of the body
and the intra- abdominal structures
are independent. There Is visual
component which operates in some
way to cause or aggravate nausea,
1t is probable that the unusual and
frequently repeated stimuli from the

Portland Manager
Northwest Enterprise
COnfers in Seattle

Mrs. Mary NJ. Duncan, Port
land manager of the Northwest
Enterprise arrived In Seattle Sat
urday. The purpose OF her visit
was to. assure Portland an earlier
distribution. thereby increasing
circulation.
The Northwest Enterprise as
sured our visitor, the failure of
their weekly to reach the public
and subscribers promptly would
surely be corrected. War condi-
tions often leave us behind the
eight ball - take it or leave 1t.
Only one who loves her work
could possibly be as interested as
the manager of the Portland de-
partment.
Mrs. Duncan's ability and will
lingness adds to her many bur-
dens. Charitable Portland read
ers should not compel correspon-
dents to make personal visits
for society news, when tele-
phone call would serve the pur-
pose. Neither because of willing
ness should the public follow the
"let George do it" crowd. She
is a ward of the public.
The Northwest Enterprise full
ly appraised of her ability leaves
Mrs. Duncan in absolute control :
OF the Portland department, and |
considers 1t compliment to
Portland subscribers.
The Northwest Enterprise is
published every Wednesday. To
insure pblication Portland news
must be air mailed special de-
livery every Monday. Observing
that rule will aid your Portland
office in having news copy make
The dead line.
After looking over the Elks

sphone calls, Mrs. Duncan re-
.urned to Portland 1890 Satur-
lay noon, bearing the burdens of

SENATOR VESTS
EULOGY DOG

The best friend a man in this
world may turn against him and
become his enemy. His son OF
daughter that he has reared with
loving care may prove migrate
full. Those who are nearest and
dearest to US, those whom we
trust with our happiness and our
good name. may become traitors
to their faith.
The money that man has he
may lose. 1t flies away from him.
Perhaps when he needs it most.
A mans reputation may be sacri-
feed In a moment of ill-consid-
cred action. The people who are
prone to fall on their knees to do
us honor when success is with us
may be the first to throw the
stone of malice when failure set
ties It's cloud upon our heads.
The one, absolutely unselfish
friend that man can have in this
selfish world, the one that never
proves ungrateful or treacherous
is his dog. A mans dog stands by
him in prosperity and in poverty,
In health and in sickness. He will
sleep on the cold ground where
the wintry winds blow and the
snow drives fiercely If only he
can be near his masters side. He
will kiss the hand that has food
to offer, he will lick the wounds
and sores that come in encounter
with the roughness of the world.
He guards the sleep of his pauper
master as If he were a prince.
When all other friends desert,
he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to
pieces, he is as constant in his
love as the sun its journey
through the heavens. If fortune
drives the master forth an out
cast In the world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks
no higher privilege than that of
accompanying him to guar d
against danger, to fight against
his enemies.
And when the last scene of all
comes and death takes his mas
ter in its embrace, and his body
Is laid away in the cold ground,
no matter if all other friends pur-
sue their way, there at the grave
side will the noble dog be found,
faithful and true even in death.

WHATS THE Use?

When a man is little the big
girls kiss him.
When he is big the little girls
kiss him
If he is poor, he is bad man
ager.
If he is rich, he is dishonest.
If he needs credit, he can't get
it.
If he is prosperous, everyone
wants to do him a favor.
If he is in politics, it is for
graft.
If he is not interested in poll
tics, he isn't good citizen.
If he doesn't give to charity,
he is a stingy cuss.
If he does give to charity, it is
for show.
If he is active in church, he is
a hypocrite.
If he takes no interest in the
church., he is a hardened sinner.
If he gives affection, he is
soft specimen.
If he cares for no one, he is
cold-blooded.
If he dies young, there was a
great future for him.
If he lives to an old age, he
missed his calling.
If he saves money, he is a
tightwad.
If he spends it, he is a loafer
and a spendthrift.
If he gets money, he is graft
er.
If he doesn't, he is a bum.
So, what's the use?
