PRESIDENT'S WORDS OF WISDOM IN President Roosevelt's remarks to the forest army there was a paragraph which ought to be lacked up where every cltlien could keep his eyes on it during the next year or so. That paragraph reads as follows: Too much In recent years large num bers of our population havo thought of suc cess as an opportunity to gain money with the least possible work. It Is time for each and every one of ns to cast away self-destroying, netlon-destroying efforts to get some thing for nothing and to appreciate that satisfying rewards end safe rewards come only through honest work." Here Is one of those little observations to which all of ns are ready to give lip service, but which we are not quite so ready to put into practice in dally life. The stock market Is boiling up toward the rim of the kettle these days, and a good part of Its rise can be accounted for solely by the desire to get something for nothing. The man who bought Amalgamated Clothespins at 18 last winter and sold out yesterday at 98 may be a smart fish,' but he enrolled himself among the sometblug-for-noth-lng boys and any recovery that takes place will come in spite of him and not because of blm. For that man Is a symptom of a national disease; a disease that came upon us most viru lently during the gay twenties and which has had us flat on our backs for the last four years. In the old days the country's admiration went to its builders. Its doers, Its men who got things done and made It possible for their fellows to get things done. . The railroad builders, the steal builders, the auto magnates and their brethren may have been guided by some cloudy ethics now and then and they may have profited unduly occasionally but at least they gave the country a definite return tor their wealth. - A decade ago we started shifting our admiration to the elever lads who put up their booths at the cross-roads and levied toll on passing commerce; the men who made their fortunes , by juggling stocks, who got rich not because they produced something we needed but because they got in on the ground floor and let the elevator carry them up. . Unless we can turn our admiration back to the builders instead of the takers, the recovery which Is bow in progress will do us precious little good. OUR DANGEROUS KITCHENS fPBB kitchen doesn't ordinarily seem like a dan " gerom place except,' perhaps, when a truly Inexpert cook starts concocting Indigestible dishes for defenseless diners. But figures released by the National Safety Council show that a hnge number ef fatal accidents take place in American kitchens very year. The highway, of course, Is the scene of more fatal accidents than any other spot But there were 18,000 deaths last year from accidents which took place in the home, and fully 34 par cent of these occurred In kitchens. Falls and scalds seem to be tbe most prolific sources of home accidents. And while it Is a bit difficult to sea Just how a safety code can be de vised and enforced for the home, a little care and forethought In the midst of the daily round of activities ought to save a good many lives each year. the bathtub. A welcome step in these days of so much dry reading. AN AMBITION REALIZED TT Is hard not to feel a bit of sneaking sympathy Afor that 17-year-old boy In Mllford, Conn., who stole railway locomotive the other day and set out to go to the Century of Progress exposition In Chicago. Of course, the lad didn't get there. Not being need to engines, he slammed bis Into a string of box cars before he had gone more than a mile or two, causing 110,000 damage and winning for him self a Jail sentence of 30 days and a E0 fine. But it's so easy to understand how he felt A lot of us used to feel that life's greatest mo ment would come It only we could sit. Just once, at the throttle of a locomotive. This lad. who actually put his desire Into practice, at least had aome get-up-and-go about him. Given the proper sort of guidance, he ought to get somewhere, some day and that "somewhere" won't be a cell in Jell, either. NEWSPAPER "PULLINQ POWER" QNE of the things the depression years seem to have taught Amorlcan buslnoss men Is that the newspaper advertisement la the surest and most effective means of reaching the consuming public. Figures Just made public by the Bureau of Advertising of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association show that newspapers received 69 per cent of the total advertising appropriations of 432 national advertisers In 1933 and constituted the preferred advertising medium of 19 of the principal trade groups In the United States. Newspapers, for example, got 83 per cent of the automobile advertising. 71 per cent of the gaso line ads. 93 per cent of the railroads' ads and 7 per cent of the shoe and clothing advertisements. The figures are a remarkable tribute to the "pulling power" of the newspaper advertisement. The picnicker who leaves beer bottles ea a ptcnlo ground Is a pest, according to a park superin tendent. Members of the plcnlo psrty. however, doubtless feel that the real pest la the one who leaves them at home. A decided decrease In the number of girl bathers who have to be rescued has been noticed at a New Jersey beach since women lifeguards replaced the handsome males who formerly worked there. Auto accessory stores are offering many con vanlent accessories that motorists can take along on vacation trips, but the best accessory for any vacation trip Is a fat bank roll. . Beware of the man who Is always "as cool as a cucumber." Quite often, he'i as slippery as a sliced HI, " Newest la the Invention of water-proof books, whJcU may be perused while b'lni comforublr la WASHINGTON LETTER By RODNEY DITCHER Register-Guard Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON, July 29. The mind behind the great NRA propaganda campaign Is Administrator Hugh Job neon's. Johnson himself Invented the slogan: "We Do Our Part." When Johnson took over the Job he wss Impressed by the desirability of selling "Recovery" to the country. His mind went back to llio operation of the drsft act which he administered and the Liberty Loan drives. Obviously, there mint be a high pressure effort to get ail good citizens all steamed up. "The ginneral," as he is called In NRA offices, didn't know Just how to go about It. He Imported a crew of advertising men from a Philadelphia office and established a publicity staff, e e Newspapermen complained that what they wsnted from a publicity staff was not ballyhoo, but facts. Nearly all the advertising men were sent bsck to Phila delphia. But the original Idea fitted nicely when Johnson began to feel the Imperative necessity of a blanket code which required general popular support. Thla time be called in the ballyhoo boys who had put over the Liberty Loan drives and they were here, working on tbe plan before the code wss snnonnced. Johnson, besides making up the slogsn, personalty selected the NRA Insignia of the blue eagle Its toe nails clutching a cog-wheel In one foot and lightning bolt In tbe other from design which had been called for from ten artists. The blue eagle U the work of Charles T. Coiner, who works for the Philadelphia advertising agency. e Johnson inadvertencies: Sending a telegram about tbe NRA effort to Clarence Mackay of Postal Tele graph tarns by Western Union. . . .

The purpose as far as the grange Is concerned Is laudlble in thst It seeks to protect an Oregon Industry. The people all slong the const, however, Including sawmill men, wnnt concrete bridges built because the construction of such bridges will use more lumber, or ss much, sa in Ihe building of wooden bridges. This because lumber Is used In providing forms and this lumber csn be provided by the small coast mills. It Is untreated lumber, whereas were wooden bridges erected creosoted timber would be used and there Is but one crensotlng plsnt In Oregon, at St Helens. Were wooden bridge built the coast mills would get no business but one company having a monopoly would doubtless profit handsomely, at the expense of the const highway and the motorists who provide the funds for highway con struction In Oregon. If it Is good planning to construct large bridges of wood why does not Portlsnd build wooden bridges scross the Willamette! Why did not Messrs. Booth, Veon, Benson and Van Duser, all lumber men, build wooden bridges? AN EDITORIAL ON HEALTH By DR. MORRIS FI8HBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Assoclstloa, And of Hygels, the Health Magaslne QF all the problems that may concern the sversge family, there Is probably net one In which the decision la of mora ultimate Importance for Its health and happlnese than the choice of the family physician. The family doctor of an earlier day was mostly learned In the school of experience. In many Inslsnces he had studied with a preceptor and perhnps had a course of lectures In soma medicnl school lasting six months and devoted but slightly tn the practical side of medicine. Such knowledge he ohtslned by studying cases with bla preceptor. He did, however, develop Sn Intimate personal relationship with those whom he served, which is recog nised today aa tbe basic feature of the best type of medical practice, see In the old dnys the family loved, Indeed slmost worshiped, the family doctor. He wsa their guide tn health as well as In sickness. He alone, of all the community, knew the family secrets and he alone could be depended on to keep the faith. True, hie remedies were occasionally harsh, and bla diagnosis largely guesswork, hut bla record of cures is eurprlslng. He wsa especially known for bis ability to practice the art of scientific observation, using to the utmost his fire senses. The physician of today bss available Innumerable eclentlflc devices for aiding, prolonging and extending these senses. However, unless hralna are carefully mixed with the application of the devices the result may he confusion rather than scientific diagnosis, and the coat far beyond that necessary for first-class medical practice. e e tn choosing a physlelaa It Is well tn find the ansvers to certain quest ions which might be called "an aptitude test for the family doctor." Klret, la be a graduate of a recognise,) medical school thst requires st lesst four years of thorough training? Thsre wss a time when there were more mr'lral schools In the Vnlted States than In all the rest of the world, We had almost SOO medical schools In this country around 11100.

D.D. Editor of The Oongregutlonsllst THE story of Gideon is a good one the power of big things. Thst obsession is not quite aa strong in the world today as it was a few years sgo. We have aeen the counsel of big men fail, and big plans and big orgsnisationa go wrong. We are discovering that things can be too big, especially if there be any unsoundness In the foundstion or any hollowness at the core. Napoleon la reported to have said that God waa on the side of the greet battalions, but he had reason to alter that opinion, and ia re ported, also, to hsve remsrked upon tbe fsct thst while be end other great military conquerors hsd gone down to ultimate defest, Jesus, who had never led an army or fought a battle, was still progressing in his conquest of the world. i Gideon stsnds as a strange and exceptional figure in military his tory a man who, when be bad a battle to fight, chose to reduce rsther than to increase hie forces. It is trus that Gideon depended in some measure upon strategy, but deeper than his dependence upon strategy was hla dependence upon the integrity and courage of hie sol diers. He selected the men for bis enterprise by methods designed to single out the ready and the trust worthy. The device by which he chose these wss so simple that one could hardly have supposed it to bs effec tive. He led his army down to the water to drink.

M) To Aimee Sample McPherson Button, her husband's unfortunate stsge de but In Hollywood Isst night just went to show thst the wsy of the trans gressor wss hard. Tbe evsngelist arrived here today, turned a wan smile on intervlewera, shook her head and admitted she "hardly knew bow .to feel" about the action of her husband, David h. Mutton, In filing a divorce suit She did have very definite ideas concerning the episode attending hla debut behind the footlights when a woman flung four badly aimed eggs at him. "The wsy of the transgressor is hsrd," she sighed, snd explained that forsaking an evanegistic hymn book for syncopation constituted transgression. "David had a lovely voice when rendering service to God by elnging religious hymns," said Mrs. Hutton. "I've seen him mske members of the congregation cry. "Singing modern tunes, popular songs, however, may be different By the way, he never did lead the choir at Angelus temple." She still waa bewildered at her husband'a divorce suit She could think of only one resson ' for his move the depression.
