LOOKING TO 19:50 V7ESTEUDAY this column summarized in a very brief I way the progress of tin's county during the year just past. The record was an impressive one. The year 1929 was one of achievement and prosperity serving the useful purpose, so fur as we are concerned now, of setting a mighty high mark to shoot at for 19:50. . ' The progress we make during the year which begins today is going to depend somewhat upon the mental attitude we have as we begin the new period. Shall we bo optimists, shall we be pessimists or shall we be opportunists? These three terms are best defined witli the use of a simple illus tration : An optimist, when told that the wolf is at the - door, refuses to believe, goes on his merry way and sooner ' ov' later unmindful of the warning, opens the door and is .devoured. A pessimist, when he learns that the wolf is at ; the door, gives up in despair and throws himself at the animal's feet.. The opportunist docs neither of these very foolish things. After giving the matter some careful thought, the opportunist when confronted with the fact that a wolf is at the door, craftily opens the door, invites the wolf in and soon thereafter emerges clad in a new fur coat. Douglas county people are opportunists in the sense that adversity never means defeat. We have a wonderful coun try here. It has a great future before it. In the realm of possibilities for 19:50 are oil, a pros pect of a railroad down the Umpipia, some definite action toward the building of the uncompleted link of the Uoseburg Central Oregon road up the North Umpqua, the completion of the Tiller to Trail road, the further completion of the road from Drain to Kecdsport, and the possible development of timber resources of the county. Any or all of these things are possible. In the classification of probabilities things very likely of accomplishment are, an egg packing plant, a nation-wide market for cantaloupes, belter and more profitable farm crops, a sawmill plant in operation in Moseburg, building activity in residence districts, and a general increase in pro perty values. There are countless other things, of course, but named here are those of an outstanding nature. In the classification of actualities things already with us in the new year, and forever, are a wonderful climate, productive farm land nnd a forward looking and energetic people. Yes, we have the most excellent prospect for a fine new year. POEM FOR THE DAY By LOUIS ALBERT BANKS JANUARY Mail. January, month the first And often times you nre the worst. We frankly meet you with a shiver Your very name sots us nquivcr. Oh. tell me how you pet this way When you're so close to Christmas Day? With tileticle cheer so very recent, 1 think you ouht to be more decent. You are the month when we take slock, And plan to beautify bur walk. What resolutions you must make 7o tfive us such an awful shake I 1 think of days when "ma" and "pa" Would hopeful talk about your thaw; Alas I some years you do not do it. Or, if you do, we're made to rue it. iVihapn we need you somewhat rude To build up strong our fortitude, Kor this adventure of the year 11. is need of (;rit as well as cheer, And if you fcivc us weather rouh, 'Twill only serve to make us toujh; Perhaps we're like the farmer s soil A little freeze increases spoil. Dear January, be a sport Just tivke things calm no trouble couit. We do not care to make a record The year at best will be quite checkered. So, uive us )l,s n mutual time Without too much of slush and I rime. And speed us to a splendid start To face the year with steadfast heait.

Especially in Girl of Adoles cent Age, Says Authority, Suggesting Treatment, By R. S. COPELAND, M. D. U. S. Senator from New York. Former Commissioner of llealth, h'ew York City. ANAEMIA is an all to preva lent disease. There are my riads of cases of the "sec ondary anaemia,' so-called, espe cially among young girls of the adolescent aze. And an extreme type of ana emia, which is very serious, is called "per nicious anae mia." Any condi tion which may be term ed anaemia is serious enough. I n m n a f aaooI fhfl r,.d rnrnnielP!! R COPtLANO of the biood are lacking in num bers. Because they do not per form their function, the girl is down in health. She may com plain of headaches, low spirits are noticed, there Is lack of mental vigor, bIih suffers from acidity of the stomach and constipation. In times paM, acute anaemia was a very common disease among girls of school ago. Boys were practically free from It. Why was thls7 It usm) to be that school girls were considered "unladylike" If thoy en gaged In any form of exercise other than taking a formal walk with a chuperone. That wus a mld-Vlrtorlan Idea! Thitm nre quite different now. Girts t !- irl In almost all th anorts that boys do. With thtt tree, oui of-doors exercise and play most girls enjoy robust health today. Among the causes of simple anaemia arc loss) of blood, and In testlnal autointoxication, with or without constipation. The condition we call "acidosis" La likely to be present. Diseased teeth and tonsils may hv mueh to do with bringing on this condition known as anaemia. Many serious ailments are traced to Infection of the teeth and other local infections. The mode of living must . be changed radically. The anaemic per son should have plenty Of fresb air and sunshine. There must be Im proved diet, wholesome food and the best of care under the doctor's di rection, i Uut a good diet alone will not bring back normal health. Proper rest, and exercise In the open air as the patient grows stronger, will assist In the desired result. Tou must first remove the cause, then the red corpuscles take care of themselves. Tou will help to build up the blood by a r ell-balanced diet. The presence of anaemia means un dernourishment of the body. From the lack of the right food, of fresh air and sunshine the poor body Is dented the nourishing element. Anaemia Is a natural result. The digestion of the antemlo per son Is often Impaired, and so easily digested foods must be eaten. Milk and eggs, cereals with cream, fruits, together with orange Juice, tomatoes, spinach, lettuce and tlmllar foods to provide the necessary vitamins. Iron and other mineral salts must be In cluded In the diet. An abundance of proteins such as muscle meats, liver nnd kidney are useful In building up the bodily tissues, Including the blood.

Tho bag limit for ducks this year will be 15 and after a man kills four geese he will bo through for the day. Secretary Hyde announced to day that the changes In federal regulations would go Into effect after the present hunting season and that the possession limit would be reduced to 30 ducks and 8 geese. At present the bag limit under federal law for ducks is 25 and for geese 8. An extensive Investigation by the department of agriculture, which showed that the water fowl were not holding their own was a factor in the decision to reduce the limit as were representations made by conservation agencies and sportsmen's organizations. Blame for the decrease in the number of wild fowl was placed largely upon the elimination by re clamation of former breeding grounds In the northwest states and Canada.
