It would have been a great opportunity for Clark and an' honor for Eugene, lyut we feel very proud of the. young man just the same. The appointment went to an older and stronger boy, and this is probably a wise choice, for the trip to the South Pole is an undertaking to tax the strongest men. Clark is only 17, and ho has plonty of time ahead. And at his ago, just to have been one of the six considered for the honor is quite an. achievement. Just to have had that thrilling trip to New York and those few glorious days with Commander Byrd and other celebrities is quite a reward. We like the splendid boyish enthusiasm which runs through Clark's story of his trip as told to The Guard reporters on his return. It reveals the kind of boy he, is and the kind, of boys the Scout organization hero is making, manly boys who act rather than try to bo like men. SMITH'S TURN NEXT O' kN "Wednesday, at Albany, New York, Governor Alfred " K Smitfi will arc- through the formality of accepting the Democratic nomination and will tell the world how ho proposes to run things if he is elected president. As a nubho document. Governor Smith's speech Wednesday will be of extreme interest and importance for a number of very good reasons. Far more than the Democratic platform set forth at Houston it will bo an authentic declaration of what the American public may expect. The Democratic platform, even more than most platforms was a hopeless hodge podge of ambiguous generalities and impossible prom ises. Smith will undoubtedly declare that ho "stands on the platform" of his party, but everyone, knows that it is far more accurate to say that tho party is waiting on him for leadership. In fact ho has already assumed tho leadership by breaking away from his party's blundering effort to cap italize on his wetness while handing its dry followers a pacifier in tho shape of a promise of rigid enforcement. Under Smith's leadership the Democratic party is wet and stands for modification of tho prohibition amend ment. , . . It remains to bo, seen whether any other major issues will emorgo undor Smith's leadership. Herbert Hoover has sot up a definite program on farm reljof and tho tariff and administrative economy and tho development of natural rosourocs whioh it will be Smith's opportunity to meet. It will be interesting to see how he does it, for ho is a plain talker and some of tho party chiofs who would like to have him talk only in parables aro apt to find him impatient of restraint. At 3:30, our time, Wednesday afternoon, tho Demo cratic chief will bo on tho radio. This paper and others will carry the text of his speech. Radio and tho great news services have inndo it possible for everybody to sit in on a grunt national debate.. has mado one of the sound mi t rail road properties In the United States, knows better. The Great Northern, which has pushed its service south across interior Oregon to the sreat nine belt of Klamath, knows better. The Southern Pacific, which has spent minions in a new crossing of uie Cascade range and which has speed ed its trains in needed example to other carriers, knows better. In fact, the rnilronda know no other Pacific ronHt state is more open to de velopment than Oregon. They know that other regions lens productive have developed faster because better rail transportation was xiven. They know that Oregon has progressed slower because it is less developed as to rail transportation than any other state of the Union. Ho why ploy a game? Why not be sincere? And why Imagine that the Interstate commerce commission will not realize why railroad witnesses testified to the prosperity of the far mer in the Hoch-Hmith hearings and to the desncrate nlinht of airririiltiirw in the crosB-state hearing? Meanwhile, the cross-state railroad was once conditionally promised by the Union Pacific. Is not everyth'ng and more here now than when thut promise was made?

IN NINETEEN HOURS I N eighteen hours and fifty-eight minntos, well, call it nineteen .hours, Pilot Art Qoebol has crossed tho con tinent from Los Angeles, to New York in his piano, Yankee fioodlo and carriod a passenger. He has cut nearly eight hours (seven hours and forty-two minutes to bo exact) from the record mad'o by Lieutenants John A. McOoady and Oakley Kelley in 1023, just five, short years back. Here wo liavo a moasuro ot aerial progress to date and a promiso of what the. futuro holds for us. Tho time is at hand when thero will bo regular eight een hour pafisonger service betwoon Uio I'aoifio coast and Now iork, possibly even faster sorvico. It may not become the prevalent modo of travel but it will ho a mode widely used for tho value of such a sorvico to bus iness is at once apparent. Most of us can remember wuen tno Twanliolli Uentury and tho Broadway Limitod first mado their eighteen hourVuns betwoon Chicago and Now York, back about 1SK)0. Thoso two groat trains and thoir suocossors havo boon of incalculable valua.to bus iness. Some pooplo said that such fast service never would be in general demand, especially at extra faro ratos. Yot today wo find thoso trains running day in and day out in many sections and cauli section crowded to ca pacity. To tho business man it has meant a groat deal to be ablo to do business in Chicago one morning and in Now York tho next. In tho near futuro, and restricted only by tho limitations of safety and price, there will bo just as much demand for tho eighteen hour servico be tween Los Angeles nnd San Francisco and Eugeno and uiu nig cuius oi ino cast. More than ever mileage is falling behind as the true measure of distance In speaking, of the distanoo between cities, nowadays, it's timo that counts. S O I U I R M 1 I t K n.

The trainer said, That'a great!" toxic fecal matter. At least 2 enemas dully should be taken, and nore if necessary to assist In eliminating in testinal gas. No food of any kind should be used for at least four or five days no milk, soup, coffee, cocoa, or any other drinks, except whatever water in desired. This is a simple "water" fast, and will bring about the quick est relief in getting rid of asthmatic wheezing, and will work wonders in assisting Jn the elimination of accu mulated bronchial mucus. The water fast should be continued for longer than four or five days if it is necessary, extending it to ten or fifteen days if symptoms persist or the tongue remains heavily coated and the hresth foul. No fear need be felt about the consequences of the longer fast, as only good results will follow. This fast has ben taken by many thousands, nnd thousnnds of ac tual cures reported, without a fllngle harmful experience. , After all symptoms have subsided, and It seems adviHalile to break the fast, the following dietary regime should be followed: I'pon arising in the morning take a few calisthenic exercises in a room with plenty of free circulation of air. Follow the ex ercises with a cold shower bath then. IJRKAKFAST: The whites of two ecus prepared in any manner except by frying; two or three pieces of Mel ba tonst, browned all the way through. i noire ot a smal di.h of one of the following stewed fruits: Prunes, fics. raisins or anple sauce. These should be nrepnred without adding any sugur. No cream nor milk should be used. LUNCHEON: Choice, of ona or more, as desired, of the folio win ir vecetables: Celery, spinach, small string benns, asparngus, aummer : squash, cucumbers, egg plant, small I beets and tops, small turnips and tops. ; small carrots, small parsnips, lettuce,, okra, chapotes, oyster plant (salsify). mauow, anie, zucchini, parsley, nas turtium leaves and flowem. endive. 1 avocado (alligator pear), or ripe ! olives, ibese may be used either cooked or raw. or both cooked and raw, and in any reasonable quantity, j Iftte In tha afternoon nm mnm calisthenic exercises should be taken.

No more than one- I quarter of a pound should ba used. : The vegftahtes should be chosen from j those listed for luncheon, and tha combinations should be kept simple.
