Why The Fighting?

the amouu|itioa whiah. Medford and Ashland

Ashland was ready with
an equally large stock and didn’t stop with rotten
eggs aad decayed vegetables — but branched off
with an origiiud aaw idea, that of using paint. The
streets resembled a miniature dump ground in spots
where the two “ arm »«” dashed.

These ridiculously, childish battles, which ac

Leave These Winders Open
Winter to many people means a period of clon«d 1
windows and indoor life during which they carefully
«void exposing themselves to cold wintja. They get
out the family sedan when they wish to go to the
other end of tdwn and see that the windows in it
are tightly closed and the heater wide open. Then
they cannot understand where they ever caught that
cold. Hadn’t they avoided the chill air like a plague?
This is one of the old ideas that it appears im
possible to kill—it appears simple logio that one
takes “ cold” from the cold. Physicians in vain
call our attention to the fact that there isn’t such a
medical term as “ oold” and that the ailments we
classify under that headiug are varied and the result
of germs, not cold winds and that instead o f‘causing
these diseases fresh air, whether warm or cold, is
more likely to preveitt trouble than to cause it.
It is true, that weakening the body from undue,
exposure to ,cold will hying about illness same as
weakening it by over-eating, loss of sleep or any
other abuse, but the fact that arctie explorers never
suffer from the so-called “ colds” speaks for itself.
I f the popular idea were correct those who brave the
rigors of the arctic winter should suffer much worse
than we do from these winter ailments.
Dress warmly and tak4 care of your general
condition; open your bedroom windows wide and
don’t be afraid of a red nose and stinging cheek and>
you will find that even that dreaded direct draft
will be perfectly barpaleea.
. ; . *
Moro than one person of delicate health has
found the road to vigor by way of the winter winds
— perfectly taken on the hoof.

one long bedlam.
This year the b lu e 'la w
pro-
ponente are ^nore confident than
ever, although only the f a c t
that Washingtonians have no
vote w ould seem to hold
any
hope that Congress would
pass
such a bill.
The opposition has been led by
the- National Association Opposed
.to Bine JLawe, which promises
to bring on a group of aattonally
prominent men to appear against
the Lankford bill when hearings"
are held this year. Bowlby’s or
ganisation, the Lord's Day A l-
llanos, has beyn raising » "w ar
ch’bst” 00 behalf of Sunday ¿los
ing, which has led the A. O. B. L.
to denounce It an. the "the Big
o try Lobby’’ employed by "The
Bigotry Trust."
The association's president Is
Dr. Joseph 4» Thumper, v d e n tls t,
and Its secretary-treasurer
is
him. The dw arfs gaunt arm, drap* .
cd In tattered rags, came through
the bars and his Sugar potnted at

weft modulated voice, “there are

Again the laugh rang eut and the

he said tauntingly, looking Buck*
wdll full In the eyes. “To go to

Infinitely more sweet than to en
dure thia prison you have made
for me."
They gazed at each other fixedly,
hatred In the eyes of one, contempt
In those of the other. I t was un
believable that two men ao dlffer-
ent la appearance oould be blood
brothers. A t some time in tpe
past, they had both had exceptional
opportunities for s,ody.
Their

but not for the sort of things that

to tfae shrine with bowed head.
"So ypu fear to put an end to the
1 tortures ot this decaying body of

"You, the daunt-

a necessary precaution to prevent
