' HEALTHFUL i The opinion of .an eminent physician concerning the health fulness of winter weather deserves consideration by all those interested in good, bad and indifferent health. And who is not? ' Except for the smoke products that are belched from the chimneys,' and which sometimes hover over whole commun ities like fogs, winter weather is cleaner than that which humanity breathes at any other time of the year. For this condition two climatic factors are responsible. Perhaps the most important of the two is the northwest cold-wave wind. Born in circumpolar latitudes, it comes from a region uncontaminated with smoke and soot and other corruptions of civilization. It comes from high altitudes as well as from high latitudes.' As it rolls down from, wilderness It gives that part of Mother Earth over which it spreads a thorough cleansing. j The meteorologist, who declared it to be the greatest asset of health that large areas of the United States receive, did not exaggerate its importance. Humanity does not breathe cleaner and more health-giving air; incidentally, there is no such thing as pure air in the natural state. The second factor insuring the healthful conditions of winter is the snowstorm. Snow coivibs the dust and other impurities from the air even more effectively than does a shower of rain. Moreover, it seals decaying organic matter on the ground, and when the ground is blanketed with snow there is no dust being stirred up for people to breathe. . Winter climate indoors, however, is quite another thing. With so much purer and healthier air outdoors, why do so many people endanger their health by hibernating with the first cold blast? CLOTHES AND SUCCESS . Clothes may not make the man. but they go far in the making of a salesman. The public largely judges a book by its cover. A department store executive sized up a salesman who was not producing up to store standards. Instead of firing the employe, he increased his salary and told him to spend the increase for clothes. Good clothes made him a valuable salesman, Similar views about clothes are held by Miss Pyrtlo, presi dent of the National Education Association, but she turns to the teaching profession to illustrate her point. She says that the best-dressed teacher will accomplish most with her pupils. Boys and girls are critical of the personal appear ance of their teachers. Is it not tho dowdy teacher who is caricatured ou the blackboard, "made faces at" brunt of every mischievous trick the adolescent wind is cap able of concocting? The well-dressed teacher doesn't have to sell education the sloven cannot. ! More professional men than are aware of it owe their out-' standing success to immaculate and professional attire and a ' commanding physique and confidence-winning physiognomy. ! 1o say that failure makes men before the horse. Antiquity subscribed to a kit ing tnat a line woman can carelessness in dress is becoming to a man" and that "ugly woman, finely dressed, are the uglier." I MTS.

CONFERENCE OPENS WITH LARGE CROWD (Continued from Page One) practical application of the find ings of tho Hurvej.

Y. ant part in the recent national or ganization perfected by 34 cooper ative wool marketing organisations and Is a- recognized authority in thts particular line. Because of that fact his address of more than an hour this morning, with its practical value to tho grower whether his sheep were on tho ringe or on the farm, was heard with quite unusual interest and en thusiasm. Mr. Ward spoke fint on coop erative marketing in general, point ing out the fact that funning in terests havo not kept apace with other industries, and while in prac tically ull other fields an era of consolidation has been passed, the farmer is where he was 30 or 40 years ago, ns far as marketing his produce is concerned. He showed how the period of the chain stores followed naturally that of the con solidation of the producing organ izations, this means of distribution bringing to the ultimate consumer a decreased price, according to, his thinking. "This movement found the farmer standing right where he stood 35 years ago," lie said. Air. W.rd expressed himself as be ing Of tho opinion that the mass production as being stressed in some sections, where numerous farms were being run under one management, would never bo suc cessful. Malntalnln gtho farm fam ily fn a home on the farm was the great bulwark of tho whole; In dustry he believed, and any move which would tend to destroy this farm home, as he believed this mass movement would do, wo.uld meet with discouragement on all sides. Twelve thousand, five hundred cooperatives last year handled two and a hair billion dollars in prod uc'tH, according to the speaker, and great benefits were derived from this mass distribution system. "C"o niiernllve marketing cannot raise tho price far above the price es tablished by ihe law of demand and supply," Mr. Ward stated, but it can stabilize a market and give tho. farmer the benefit over the fluctuations of a period of years. I'Yom the general Mri Ward went to, his own particular field, that of cooperative marketing of wool. Ho described the buying, grading and selling processes showing throughout the distinct advantage to all wool growers in this method Of disposing of his wool. He stressed the fact that very soon,. if not nt the present time, there would bo a surplus of wool, and then the careful handling of the huslwv connected with the dispo sition of the fleece would be neces sary. Ho pointed out that during the past seven years there had been an increased production of 100 mil lion pounds of fine wool. With luith raiilc Cleayinger.

PRISONER'S PLAN TO ESCAPE JAIL IS FRUSTRATED (Continued from Pago One) early hours of Sunday morning, when Deputy Sheriff Carl - JSburt, who sleeps in tho court house, heard the rasping sound. He noti fied the others, and Messrs. Bre shears and Kltnghnmmer went on to their self-appointed job of "watchful waiting." As it happen ed. Baker almost decided to try to squeeze out that night, but the hole wasn't quite big enough to satisfy him. Sunday the two of ficers took turn about watching the cell window", but It wasn't until about 2 a. m. today that Baker started sawing again. Search revealed that Baker had used four hack saw blades which apparently had been concealed in the soles of his shoes. Saturday night, when Mr. Klinghammer In spected the jail. Baker concenled himself on top of the tank, there by later, being able to get at the Jail window. Incidentally, it was said today that a fence Is to be erected around the top of the tank A Y BANKE ISA ' FRBENDL We are all human vc like friends and friendly understanding. And it would be a rather sorry way to live if we had no one with whom we could discuss our good fortunes and nur misfortunes, our experiences and our ambitions. And since money affairs are personal affairs, the banker's job should be a friendly one. If a widow, discussing her investments, wants to buy doubtful-looking oil stock, the banker can advise her against it and still be friendly. As a matter of fact, he would not be a friend if he didn't. And if a man wants a loan that would involve his future and jeopar dize depositors' and stockholders' money, the banker who shows the error of such a request is doing the only friendly thing he can do. Your per manent welfare is the concern of every good banker, lie nvust be of sub stantia! service, a counsellor who guards your interests in both a helpful and friendly way.
