SALMON CHANGE COURSE,
' RUNNING FARTHER NORTH
; Vancouver, i7 C., Aug. 14.?The
North Pacific aockeye salmon, an orI
derly creature which never forgets Its
birthplace, apparently lost their way
home this year, at the expense ot
r American fishermen.
The result has been an unprecedented
run of salmon through Canadian
Instead of American 1 waters. One
Canadian fisherman reported he made
$3,200 In 18 days, at 66 cents a fish.
American fishermen have been out of
luck.
Ordinarily the salmon, en route upstream
to breed and die, pass In from
the ocean through Puget Sound and
thence up the Strait of Georgia to
the mouth of the Praser river.
This year they ran hundreds of
miles northward in the Pacific, skirting
Vancouver Island on the ndrth
to enter the strait, and thence moved
southward to the Graser's mouth.
One fisherman said the reason was
that this year's run consisted of descendants
of salmon hatched in 14J12
in the , Praser river from eggs taken
from > the Skeena river, 460 miles to
the north.
He reasoned the salmon were torn
between a desire to head for the
Skeena and their normal Instinct to
head for home up the Praser.
"Instead of short cutting through
Pudget Sound as usual," he said,
"they went hundreds of miles north
before they made up their minds."

, As has been the practice for several
years, high shcool pupils will
register before the opening date of
the school. By this plan much confusion
is avoided. The pupils do not
have to spend a day of tiresome
waiting, and classes can begin work
promptly the first day of school.
Attention of parents and pupils is
called tp the fact that unless pupils
report for registration at the scheduled
time,, they are likely to find
the classes in wHch they wish tp enter
for a particular subject already
filled. Parents should investigate
the courses given by the high school
and aid the pupils to elect subjects
that will give them the best possible
preparation for life. Not all the1
work in the Mgh school Is college
preparatory and therefore,) parents
and pupils are cautioned to elect
subjects to that end if they contemplate
attending college. Parents
are invited to confer with, the superintendent
and principal about their,
children's work in school.
The importance of registering at
the scheduled time cannot be emphasized
too mudh. The schedule
will be arranged this year before
school opens. Conflicts can be avolded
by early registration.
Boys who expect to attend the
football camp are expected to register
Monday morning, August 24th.

of Q. W. 8!oan."
l>r. C. E. Oxner, the examining phyaician,
uaid Miaa Bragdon died of
"shock from injuries uud ~ probably
phyalcal exertion."
The sheriff quoted Sloan as sayfhg:
"1 had been drinking freely . . .
the next time I can remember I was
standing In the lady's room by her
bed. She woke and began to scream.
"She ran to the front window and
scratched at the screen as if trying
to get out.
"I caught hold of her around both
her arms. She turned and began to
scratch and kick me. I threw her
down on her bed and pushed her face
in with my hands."
Joe Sloan, his 20-year-old son,
said at the inquest he held an Ice
pack on his aunt's bead as she died.
He quoted his father as saying:
"Poor old soul. Nobody cared anything
about her or would take care
of her."
The son said his aunt had been In

six weeks ago an<? that her mind had
grown weak.

First Baptist church there, She was
born in Florence, and leaves a brother

her husband at Greenwood.
Fulp Outlines Flan
For Drought Relief
Col. J. I). Fulp, in charge of Investigation
of applications for drought
relief, today issued this statement:
"There seems to be a general misunderstanding
with regard to the
drought relief program in many counties.
It 1h most important that all
of us try to get a little clearer understanding
about this matter.
"In the first place, it does not 80403
to be generally understood that a
person must be reduced to a relief
status In' order to receive help because
of the drought. It would be
qultq impossible for us to secure
enough money from all sources to usHlst
every one who has suffered crop
damages because of the dry weather.
No effort Is being made to reimburse
auy one for his loss, but an effort is
being made to locate those persons
who are actually in need because of
drought, those who are unable to provide
food or actual necessities , for
their family and stock.
Perhaps a glance at the immediate
situation in Anderson county will
give some idea of what Is being done
and what It will be necesB&ry to do
in connection with this program. The
Department of Public Welfare has received
applications for drought relief
from more than 2,500 families in this
county. Many of those applying have
not understood that only those persons
can receive this relief who have
exhausted all their resources and who
are unable to provide the barest ne-i
cesstties for their families. When an!
applicant goes to the Welfare office
he Is required to give certain information
regarding his family, his financial
situation, and the condition of his 1
crop. He is given a statement to take
to his landlord for signature. The
statement is to be signed by the landlord
only If he Is unable to furnish
his tenant any further and does not
need his services until a specified
date. This statement is required in
order that those applications may be
eliminated when the applicants has a
resource through normal channels and
in order that relief may not Interfere
with contracts m&e by landlords and
tenants. It Is expected, of course,
that all landlords who are able to do
so will continue 'to carry their tenants
o"n through the gathering season.
When the crops have been gathered
and what has been made Is a fact
rather than an estimate a fairer distribution
of relief will be possible.
At this time it is quite difficult to
estimate the returns that will be received
from a grea many farms.
"When the statement has been returned
to the welfare office with the
proper signature an investigation is
made by one of the workers from the
local office. This investigation consists
of a visit to the home of the applicant,
and'to others who can assist
by giving information such as extent
of damage to crop, financial condition,
etc. A great deal of time Is required
in order that the complete information
required may be secured,
"In an effort to give assistance first
to those who need it first the following
procedure<is followed in the county
In the drought area: An agreement
ha* been reached aa to the
areas most seriously affected by the
drought within the county. This has
been done by consultation with local
persons who are familiar with the
weather conditions and the crop conditions
and are competent to make
comparisons. The applications are investigated
first in those sections
Where it has been driest. Even. in
these sections, however, it happens
that there are those who are in more
immediate need than others,, some
who will have nothing to eat this week
unless relief is received, others who
will be without food nekt week and
still others who will be able to maintain
their families for six weeks or
more. Since some time will be required
to complete all Investigations
It Is most Important that Investigations
be completed first on those who
will .first be in need. Every effort
is being made to do this, but it will
be Impossible of accomplishment without
the cooperation of every one concorned*

"All applications are being carefully

Dangers Lie In
Tactless Jokes
Chicago? Hearty visitors who enter
the sickroom with booming, well-intoutloned
references to the morgue or
operating room actually may become
u contributing factor to a patient's
death, according to I>r. George H.
l^ake, editor of Clinical Medicine and
Surgery.
"Few people, except experienced
physicians, know how to talk to an
actually sick man," he said, writing
In the Radiologic Review.
"Lugubrious anecdotes all too frequently
contribute to an unfavorable
outcome."
The patient who worries, or Is afrald,
always has an uphill fight to recovery,
the physician said.
"This fear or worry need not be
with regard to physical condition. A
man may bo distressed because be la
not carrying enough Ufa insurance;
because his rent is overdue.
"A woman may be violently perturbed
because she has discovered a
few gray hairs or 'crow's feet'; because
she fears she is losing her husband's
love.* Both men and women
have died because they feared the
loss of friends or social position, or
had a feeling of remorse for past mistakes."
Such fears and worries, he said,
"are not immaterial and foolish and
they deserve the earnest attention
and study of the physicians who aspire
to achieve high and lasting success."
Deeply hidden mental or physical
reactions frequently result from acta
which the individual recognises as opposed
to his own or the community's
code of morals, the physician said.
Emotional instability caused by faculty,
heredity or hygenlc mating often
is an importAqV factor in causing
and perpetuating distressing symptoms,
Dr. Lake said.
Most of these persons, he said, are
"Chronics" who for years have been
going from one physician to another
with but little relief. Some have been
inadequately prescribed for, others
have been dismissed brusquely and
told nothing was wrong.
"In the latter case it is unscientific
and untrue to declare that nothing
ails the patient. If he were not ill
he would not have sought medical advice.
His psyche is as much a part
of his organism as Is bis thorax or abdomen,
and, until It has been painstakingly
examined, the study of the
case is incomplete," the physician
I said.
I The emotionally-unstable person
frequently finds himself unable or unwilling
to face the true cause of his
distress, he said.
I The man who "cannot tell a He" has
no place In t&4 medfcal profession,
I according to\ DT. Lake. \
I "Many a man has recovered from
pneumonia or gastirc ulcer, -because
his medical attendant bad the good
I sense to assure him that he suffered
from bronchitis or paatraitls, when a
I knowledge of the true nature of bia
I disease would have excited so strong
I a fear as to break down hip powers
of resistance." ^
Dr. Lake paid such treatment was
not to he taken. as a .general recom|
mendatlon. Patients, he paid, should
I be individualised.
