MONDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1929 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON PACE SEVEN WOMEN TAKING MAYORALTY IN ENGLISH CITIES London (IP) Although scarcely more than a decade and a half have elapsed since the echoes of the shrill appeals of militant suffragists have died down in this country, nine Eng lish municipalities, many of them Important, today are under the cx-; ecutlve control of women. ; Even the younger generation here 1 can still recall the days of the! Pankhursts, the mraches through the streLs of London and the fre- qucnt arrests and the clashes with ; the Metropolitan police. Nevcrthe-i less one of the important sections of London, Chelsea, has a lady Mayor, and the Countess of War- ( wick, who haa embraced the more j modern dectrines of the labor par ty, now is the mayoress of the town of Warwick. Seven other women who are ac- j tive in the political life of the coun- j try managed to win in the recent municipal elections. And most of them won with ease. The new executives are members of the various political wings, but the majority of th?m came in on the Conservative ticket. Mrs. L. E. Bid well, of Thetford: Mrs. A. P. Broad, of Watford; Mrs. S. Edward Jones, of Wrexham, and Mrs. Luard of Hereford, are staunch conserva tives. Lady Phipps gained the distinc tion of being elected Mayor of Chel sea. London. This was a double dis tinction in view of the fact that a great number of the residents of the Chels?a district are artists, writers and people of other attainments. . Mrs. Ethel E. Wainwright, for some time actively connected with the labor party, won an easy Vic tory for the mayorship of Mansfield. She and the Countess of Warwick were the standard bearers for the government party.

Better Health - Longer Life GORUAS MfcMOUIAL INSIUU'IU back the angry tears, she turned to discover the old gold-miner and his dog just clambering up over the ed3e of the cliff. They advanced warily. On a long forked stick in front of him, Sheb carried Anne'sJ tam-o -shanter. He preferred it still warily. Anne took it with the briefest thanks, pulled it down over her disordered hair and looked about for her gloves. Sheb draped his lanky body nenremly against a tree. I "Missy," he said solemnly, "jes ! you take my advice an' leave 'im be leave 'im be." Anne, busily engaged In putting on her gloves which she had located finally, snapped a fastener and glanced up. "I'm afraid I don't knnw what you're talking about " The old man eyed her keenly. Ye3, I reckln you do," he drawled with a gesture toward the trail the younger man had taken. "Me an "im," he went on reflectively, "we been batchin' It together niph on four years an' all that time he aint eo much as looked at airy female not but they's been a plenty more on 'em arter 'lm both the marryln' kind and the other 'Scuse me, but you know what I mean." Anne's face scorched .furiously at that. "Yes. I think I do," she said. "But you need give yourself no un easiness. Your friend whoever he Is is perfectly safe so far as I'm concerned." Sheb shook his head dubiously. Mebbe he is an mebbe he aint," he opined sententtously. "The trouble is, a Jes plain he-man aint got no way of tellin when you say 'no' whether you mean 'yes' an' vice versy. But Jes' you take my ad vice now. Missw," he adjured her again, "jes' take my advice an' leave 'im be leave 'im be." (To be Continued) THE SAFETY OF SURGERY By C. Jeff Milter, M. D. New Orleans, Louisiana. Ufl to seventy-five years ago sur gery was not safe. Before that time and indeed up to fifty years ago, eperatiens performed in any hos pital amounted to less than 5 psr cent of the total admissions. Delib erately undertaken surgical prece durcs were limited to organs out side of the abdominal cavity like the kidneys and ths bladder, be cause opening thz depths of the bedy means a death rata of near ly 100 per czxit. Compound fractures in which the skin was broken and the tissues were injured, were part icularly fatal. Infection was the almost invariable sequel of any wound and surgery was mostly of an emergency nature, done as a last resort, with small hopa of suc cess, and resorted to only because death seemed inevitatble under any circumstances. Today the reverse of that situa tion is true. Fifty per cent and more of tne tvoal hospital r.dmissioixs arc surgical. Men and women need no longer suffer and die from dis- eaeses which yield only to the knife. for operations of the most extensive and radical kind are undertaken de liberately. Infection following them is a rare occurence, the death rate for most fo them has been reduced tot incredibly low figures, and for some of them it has been reduced to In other words surgery today, humanly speaking, is safe. In many instances it is safer than medical treatment, for certain diseases can not be treated In any other way. Infection has been eliminated by OFFICERS ELECTED BY DALLAS MASONS Dallas At an election of officers by the Jennings Lode No. 9 of the Masonic Order last week, the re sults were: Lelf S.

AID SOCIETY HAS ELECTION, STAYTON MILL CITY REPORTS HOLIDAY VISITORS Mill City Mr. and Mrs. George Missingcr and daughter of Gold Hill are here visiting Mrs. Misin ger's uncle. Mode Davis and family. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Heath have had as visitors for the last few days Mrs. Heath s brother, Waldon Mc Cloud of Lacomb, and his friend, Everett Reese of Kalona, Iowa. Walter Witt returned to Los An geles to resume his studies. He came two weeks ago for his grand mother, Mrs. Henry Witts' funrcal. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Newman and family of Tillamook are here visit ing with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Newman and Mr. and Mrs. A. N. Merrill. While hero Harold Newman and his mother, Mrs. O. H. Newman, Journeyed to Portland to attend the state teachers' institute. Newman was elected chairman of the music department of the etate. He teaches music in the Tillamook schoob. the work of Semmelwets, Pasteur and Lister, and application by mod ern science of the results of their work. Anesthesia makes possible the deliberate and careful perfor mance of operations, and elimin ates the necessity for sacrificing painstaking gentleness to speed. Moreover, the use of local and spinal anestnesia means that patients con stitutionally unfitted for ether and other inhalation anesthesias may still reap the benefits of surgical treatment. Scientific training .has taught surgeons not only how to operate, but when and why to op erate. Careful pre-operative prepar- ation has converted cases formerly considered hopeless risks into re- lattively safe ones, and equally careful post-operative treatment avoids complications once consider ed almost inevitable. Moreover, thanks to the inspiration of Flor ence Nightingale, skilled nursing botn oeiore and after operation, and skilled assistance for the sur geon at operation, has still further increased the patient's saftey. There is no reason today why anyone in the need of surgical treatment shculd fear surgery though old wives' tales about it are still widely told. It is a cruel kind ness, we grant, but the fact cannot be gainsaid that it is kind in spite of its cruelty. The man and women in enjoyment of vigorous health today who fifty years ago would have been dragging out a miserable existence, and the man and woman alive today who fifty years ago would have been dead, bear eloquent testimony to that. The chief dan gers of surgerly today is not the act of operation but delay In resorting that. The chief danger of surgery today is aot the act of operation but delay in restoring to it, ami surgery wili never be as safe as it can be made until the public cooperates with the medical profession to eli minate the evil of calling on the surgeon In emergencies which, by the periodic health audit, might have been avoided. lion In preserving and showing the old western culture which be loves.1 Within a few months, squatty buildings, an Indian council house. ;epees and a hostelry with a vide sweeping veranda will rise within two miles of the typical western town of Pawnee. Nothing that hints of the present cUy will be seen by the visitor who drives up to the post on U. S. highway No. 64. t The post will be Pawnee Bill's last wild west show and will stand as a monument to the famous show man's life devoted to exhibiting the west and its people. This show will not be on wheels. It will not tour the world to receive applause under big tents. Instead, it will represent the Old West at home amid the oak- studded prairie of tfio Oklahoma Indian country notorious for lis frontier outlaw gangs.

Catholic Students Urge Example As Strongest Force For Temperance St. Louis, Mo, (IP) Students in Catholic colleges and high schools throughout the country have .little confidence in legal methods of pro moting temperance, according to a questionnaire distributed by the Queen's Work, national sodality magazine published In St Louis. The replies to the questionnaire from the subject matter of an ar ticle in the December issue of the publication. The example of persons who do not drink Intoxicating liquor is the strongest force in the promotion of temperance, according to the young people. The majority of those answering the query thought that young ab stainers, particularly girls, could effect widespread changes m atti tude toward drinking, chiefly by setting the right example. Some girls advocated a return to the methods of their mothers who refused to be escorted by men who drank. "Since college students are con It Is up to us to set the example sidering models for American youth, of tolerance,1 one college man wrote. "If drinking were not tolerated by girls, a co-ed wrote, "it would not be sa prevailent' "A girl's in fluence can make or break a boy where drinking It concerned,'" an other co-ed observed. Both sexes expressed disap proval and dislike for the "drinking girl." The students voted 4 to 1 against the prohibition amendment and the Volstead act, but all thought tney should be obeyed. One Western boy wrote, "Although both are Bas ically wrong, they are the law nev ertheless, and command respect and obedience." HOLIDAY VISITORS Jefferson Mr. and Mrs. L. R.
