The fact 1b challenged by uo less lnirtunl cities than Medford and KUKne. But thu'. la not strictly true either. These other cltiea make no open challenge. They do not orfer a com paiUoii of statistics or anything bo positive as a consideration of facts. Why should they? In fact HOW could they? Wo have just broad cast to the world the fact that al though the mean average tempera ture for the month oi January wwt below freezing both In Medrord and Eugene, our mean average tern- . perature for that same period was several degrees ABOVE freezing Nor did wo suffer anywhere near the lowest temperature of the oth er two cltloa. Medford shivered at 3 above; Kugeue heaved coal Into groaning furnaces with the ther mometer registering 6 above, while in comparison, Itoseburg folks basked in thu comparative mild ness of 17 degrees. However convincing, the figures tlven abovo are hot adenualo In the present crisis. Medford and Eu gone, through their most excellent newspapers now seek to regain their lost laurels by appealing to their subscribers. They do not ask that winning and uncontestable facts and figures be brought forth. Almost niggardly buslnesa, they have stooped to. Their claim to climate fame shall be pinned to n flower a trlllium or a lamb's tongue. They have a contest on, both the Eugene Itegister and the Medford Mall Tribune. Each has of fered a reward" for information leading. 1o the apprehension and capture oi the FHtST lamb's tongue or tho Ki It ST Irlllium. To lugs Tollts, and to hills nnd woods. In tlilH wonderful climate of ours, wantiet by far (as the statis tics prove) than either tho north or the 'south, no doubt but that trllltuins and lamb's tongues are already abloom. Accept Ihe challenge of Medford, give tho laugh to tho contest In Eugene aomeono PLEASE bring to (he NewsHeview officii within tho next day or so a lamb's tongue or a trlllium. No reward Is neces sary, wo think, to spur Douglas county folks to urine and dulend our cllmuto thus attacked. LEGISLATORS' PAY AN unfortunate effect that ono foresees from the supremo court's Invalidation or tho Oregon legislature's action In voting ex pense money to Us members Is that H Is likely to mako adverse votes against the amendment to be on tho November ballot to Increase the pay of members to $500 plus mile age for each bleunium. Had the legislature: of tho past two ses sions not taken matters lnlo their own hands I here would be butler prospect for the adoption of the pending amendment by tho peoplo. Nevertheless, the amendment ought to he adopted and porhapn It will. No one wilt contend that three dollars a day plus mileage Is ade quate pay for members of the legis lature. Everybody knows that so low a rate falls short of paying actual expenses for the legislators. That compensation was fixed at the time when (he constitution was adopted, when money was scarce and when the buying power of Ihe dollar was several times what It is today. The going wage for labor In those times was a dollar a day or lens. Today the el'i'rct or a schedule ot legislators' pay ilml is insurtieient for actual ewnes of the members is to work a hurdhhlp upon the les.-i prosperous and to keep many such from standing for eli-ctloii lo the legislature. Only those can at tout lo run who are wealthy or who have a special interest to sere or protect by being in the legnwuuire. Many others do run lor places and do scne but when tln-y do It Is at loss and sacrifice to iliemselven. Obviously It is di su able to have representatives of the loss prosper ous, classes in Ihe legiHlatuto. The voters audit to correct a condition which makes li dilfltriilt lor them to go them Ai present, hairing special ses sions, the agreale Iter diein of legislators for ea h Im-unltim Is $lo.Sort. I'nder the proposed amend men! 11 would tie $ir,h"n with noth ing extra tor bpeeial serious. Th" slate cuu uUuid to make the in cieue. Indeed, It cannot afford not to make It In view of what It Involves. In the same envelope with a cir cular appeal to the press to aid the national council for prevention of war in telling the Ixmdon confer ence what to do conies another cir cular by the executive secretary of that organization conveying stern warning that newspaper accounts of the London proceedings are un trustworthy and ought not to be heeded. Newspapers, we gather from the circulars, should not at tempt to tell what Is going on at London but should leave that wholly to the national council for prevention of war. Meanwhile let everybody send 50 cents. This lut- ter seems to be particularly import ant, judging from the circular. To Judge by the various and varying dispatches on the subject the status of Prlncvss Henna's ro mance with the German count may well be expressed in that classic report of anotlur day by Railroader Flanagan to lions Klnnegan: Flanagan: Off agin, On agin, Gone agin Klnnegan. Mabel Walker Wlllebrandt, form er prohibition prosecutor, Is arrest ed on a charge or automobile speed ing; To the traffic officer law ob servance means primarily speed law observance, while he may con done the taking of an alcoholic drink. The dry enforcement orflcer who lays great stress on the citi zen's duty of liquor law observance rinds her zeal much less ardent when It comes to speed law ob servance. It Is all in the point of view. Oregon Editors' Opinions (CorvailiB Gazette-Times) Wli congratulate the two Eugene papers on their handling of a very messy-divorce cuso. They got away with It In a manner that re flects great credit on what ought to ho the ethics or the profession. Had they chosen to he Hensa'lonal they might not only have doubled their street sales, hut pot haps add ed a number of new ones on the monthly basis, ror, unfortunate as It may be, the average human re vel In this kind of muck that the testimony In this case Involved. Ilul.li papers retrained from sensa tionalism, though they had a case that would have hog tied many or the notorious cases .that you have read about In the metropolitan press, liy thulr restraint they have set a flue example for sensation mongers of the clly an example which we have no hope will be fol lowed. And the judge Judge Brand, he too Is entitled to c'oligratulallon. While It was tho wife who sued, asking for $lu,(j00 alimony, the Judge gave the decree to the bus band nnd gavo tho wife nothing. And that's all she was entitled to. This case Is a glaring example to prove that divorce cases ought to he tried In chambers. It was a fam ily quarrel, hut It dragged through the mlro a lot of well known Eu- geno peoplo In addition to airing tho purely domestic difficulties of the couple, difficulties which were none of tho public's business. No ends of Justice were served by a public, trial, hut oil the contrary considerable damage was done that would have been avoided, damage that may result In wrecking other homes, rubiic trials of divorce cases ought to bo abolished.

CRITICIZES CAPTION OF LIQUOR ITEM PICTURE HoHeburg. Feb. 21. 10:10 F.ditor News-lteview : Your issue of yesterday carried a cut of a Mrs. Lowey and her daughter, it! years old. Tho legend was that mother and daughter must, be sep arated for the tlrs) lime in Ihelr lives, the daughter being sentenc ed to ft school, and the mother to ihe women's institution in West Virginia. The mother had pleaded guilty to a charge of selling liipjor. Ihe press dispatches had already fold us that the mother had involv ,ed her daughter In her bootlegging operations, (if course she made 1 lie plea that she could find no other -Means of supporting her fality. Her claim is given the lie by the exam pie of thousands of honest, hard working women who are engaged In ler.ilimato work and helping to support children and setting worthy examples before them. A significant thing about the cut Is that over It is printed Ihese words, "Prohibition Separates Them." This Is, of course, a He. Prohibi tion did not separate I hem. Law lessness, erinie if you please, sep arnted them, as crime has sadden ed and separated many a family wliMp lhUor laws were not in voled. In fact the sentences of 'he law in this case appear to have been exceedingly humane. Had the woman been convicted of passine totu terfelt money or noddling nnr io1 les. having involved her ynunr dsughter. would there n any maud 1 1 ii plea that the law hint separated (hem? Certainly hot. The origin o tills cut might be interesting. It is marked "luternailimui News reel." This marvel Is lb ;t so clean and able n paper as our .tw n News Review should allow itself to be a vehicle for so plain a simple of wet propaganda.

COPELAND AT this season of the year colds, Influenza and pneumouia are usually rampant. 'l ne fact id, utter several strenu ous winter months, wilh the keeping of late hours and all the active Interests of business and pleasure, the vitality is lowered. There Is a general stale of tired ness and debility of the system. The resistance lo disease is loo sened. ' This Is an opportune time for the influenza germ to get busy. Of course, wo always have these germs with us. In every commun ity there will be occasional cases of the dlsea.se, or even a more or less severe epidemic. For those who are recovering from an attack of this disease, great precaution should be taken not to have a relapse. This is apt lo be a serious thing. Pneumonia, hundreds of ca.ses every year, fol low influenza. It is diflicult to get up from In fluenza. Even after a slight at tack where there has been on'y a short duration of fever, there Is great pliysieal weakness. This h. due to una table condition of (lie nervous condition produced by the disease. It takes lime to get back your old vigor. Among the precautions It Is es sential that ihe home be kept warm. He extravagant w ith the heat for the time being. Have plenty of ven'llation, but do not sit or lie In drofts. There are three other things which are Indlspensibto to com plete recovery from the effects of influenza. They are sunshine, fresh air and proper food. lu most parts of the country at this time of the year our hours of sunshine are limited. Plan so as to avail .yourself of every bit of sun shine you can get. Re out in It for two hours, around noontim". when the sun Is the highest. Of course. If It Is too cold. R will not be possible to stay outdoors for so long a time. Science seems to find a way to meet every obstacle on the path to good health. Now we have tho ultra-violet lamps. Their regular use gives new energy and life to the tissues through the life-giving ultra-violet rays, which are really sunshine. If you can avail your self of these treatments through your doctor, well and good. Then thero are certain kinds of 'window-glnss which transmit the ultra-violet rays of the sun, which the ordinary window-glass does not do. Perhaps the time is not far off when our homes and busi ness places will be equipped with this kind ot w indow-gmss. Recent Investigations a n d experiments have pioved ihe etllcacy of these windows as a means of admitting all the rays of sansliine. As tune goes on we shall know more about them. liet all Ihe fresh air possible. Not only be outdoors all you can. but sleep wilh all the windows open, and be warmly covered. Resilul sleep and test help greatly In your recovery. Simple food should lie your diet . during coin ulesccnce pleii t y of milk and fresh ggs are desirable. Adding a leaspooniul of gelatine to the milk does much to inciease Its food value. In these days people lake too lit tle time to recover their health and strength. Ambition may oft entimes be misplaced In tills re gard. If you get up too soon you may have a relapse, ami that you do not want. I Nt no: run the risk of this, but take time for full re covery be tore you venture forth seeking new woilds to conquer. Answers to Health Queries MRS. 1!.
