UNTIMELY CONTROVERSY. rpHE controversy between Mayor EL B. Wilder and oertain members of the city council over the appoint ment of a milk inspector is suoh a typical political oc currence that we, are inolined to dismiss it with a shrug as just another one of "those things." But it isn't a spec tacle that is apt to breed confidence in the ability oi the officials concerned to meet practical problems in a praotical and broadminded way. Next Friday is February 1 and on that date, unless tie re is a change in the situation, the so-called milk war between the producers and some of the distributors who serve this city will be actually under way. A milk war is usually accompanied by charges and counter-charges concerning quality of supply which are oonfusing to the pubho unless there is adequate inspection service to pass on the quality oi supply. The city has no business taking sides in such a busi ness controversy, but it has unquestionably at all times the right to pass on the quality and safety of its entire milk supply. In fairness to the people on both sides in the so-called milk war it should be stated that they have all expressed the desire to see this appointment of a milk inspector settled without dolay. In fact the desir ability of milk inspection is the one thing on which for the present they seem to agree. But with a oritical period approaching, the council and the mayor find themelvea unable to agree. There are two candidates for the position, Chester M. Lawrence and E. H. Christensen. Both have had training and exper ience in the work. Either, so far as can bo seen, would make an acceptable inspector. Eaoh has stubbornly loyal friends in the oounoil who are stioking to the end. "VVe don't believe there's any deep dark plan behind either candidacy. The deadlock grows out of the habit of fight ing for political jobs this way. It's just plain silly. Offhand wo would say that Mr. Lawrence should bo appointed because ho's Mayor Wilder's pick, and the mayor being chargod with most of the blame or glory of administration ought to be allowed to seloot his workmen unless there are overpower ing reasons in the way. If the mayor is to bo held for results, it's not only sound sense and fair play but smart nolitica to lot him have his sav. Oonfirnunir a milk in spector ought not to be a great rigamarole like picking an ambassador to the court of St. James. Two acceptable men are available. Eithor one will be infinitely better than none. This matter should be sottled over tho table between now and Friday. , TEACHER COURSES. THE University of Oregon in proposing to offer four year toaoher' training oourses is not setting out to absorb the functions of the state normal schools, but of fering to give a serviod which is much demanded and which cannot be given so efficiently or economically in any other way. The normal schools offer an invaluable service to those who are going into teaching, and especially to those who must go directly from high school. But there are. a great many teaching candidates who could and would incor porate with their normal training the oultural grounding whioh can best be obtainod in tho university, and there is no doubt that the oountry over there is a domand for teaohors whose education has been amplified in this way. The combination of training cannot bo clfected eco nomioally except by establishing these courses in the university. Professors might foe exchanged and pupils might be trotted baok and forth botwoen institutions, but this always dotraots irom omcioncy. iho prolesaional courses for teachers are as necessary to tho university as professional courses in law or journalism or science. All great universities have thorn, but experience shows that they do not enoronrh on normal schools to anv degree. On the oontrary, super-normal schools, performing or duplicating services properly belonging in the university would aocontuate tho scattering of money and effort whioh has handicapped all higher education in this state heavily. BENNETT HARBOR. IT is good to read that Oommandor Byrd has named a harbor whioh he discovered in tho Antarctio continent after Floyd Bennett, the man who flow with him to the Korta l'olo. But for the Bclf-sacrifice and bravery that led him to try to fly to the relief of tho Uroinui flyers when he was In the first stages of pnoumonia, Bennett would today be Byrd'B right-hand man in the Antnrouo. N'rv ing his follow men at no thought of tho cost to himself, he lost his life and his place had to bo fillod by another. But Byrd, it seems, has not forgotten him. Bonnott's name will get the kind of immortality that rptorort' names get a space in the ooninr of a map That, wo bclievo, is as ho would have had it. WHAT OTHER NEWSPAPERS SAY A ' "V ( 0 ?, VWtW.

Nevertheless, such ia the case. The ladv. as all the world doubt- leas knows by this time, was mode of metal, later filled with concrete, and presided over the deetinlea of a foun tain on the O.

"its appearance was credited with aiding in a decisive state victory that day." Now that Is what we had referene to the idea. auDarentlv set forth in all aerlouaneas, that the statue was a sort of guardian angel who watched over tho welfure of college athletics. The Intimation that the under-grad uates of a atate college held to any such idea ia hardly flattering to the undergraduates. It would be our thought that the O. A. 0. students credited their team and Ita coach with the victory. We would hardly believe that they adhered to a superstitious r filth so at variance with the spirit of higher education. If they did, one would say that It la just aa well that the statue hn ceased to be.

The first indications of measles are symptoms of a catarrhal nature, accompanied by sneezing and running at the nose, reduesa of the eyes and lids, congestion of the throat and ton sils, and finally a alight fever for the urat lew days, but about Uie lourtn day the fever suddenly riBee. reach ing about 104 degree a. This extreme fever usually persiata until the rash breaks out on the skin, and as soon as the body is entirely covered with the measles eruptions the fever begins to subside and the symptoms to abate. The rash appears first on the fore head and behind the ears but rapidly spreads over the entire body. It ap pears that tnuch poisonous substance is discharged through the skin, produc ing Uie raah, and after this elimina tion has taken place, Uie symptoms subside and the red raah gradually uvniiiics more ping, ana iinaily dia-appeara. In measles as In any other fever or eruptive disease, no eo-called "nourishing" food of any kind should be given the patient. Plenty of drinking water should be used, and uie juices or several oranges grapefruit should be taken daily. The curus irmt juice seems to have stimulating effect in nrodncinv quicker elimination through the skin ana consequently recovery takoa place more rapidly. Jinny people make the mistake of leeuing 10 me one who Is sick with a fever such heavy foods aa eggnogs, milk toast, meat broths, etc., but this is a very serious mistake and usually leads to the graver complications. lturiiig the acute crisis of an erup tive fever, the digestion of foods prac tically ceaaee and everything placed in the stomach at this time will vary it; viii M-nurui ana putruy, pro ducing very serious toxins.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Low Weight and Unsound Sleep Question: O. M. V. asks: "Will you please tell me how I can put on weight? I am a girl 20 years old and only weigh 97 pounds. The most I have ever weighed is 106 pounds. I am five feet seven and a half Inches tall. Also please tell me what would cause my sleep to be disturbed by dreams every night regardless of whether I eat or not before retiring, and why I am tired every morning even when I retire early," Answer: There Is no doubt but what your weight Is too little for your height, but don't stuff yourself. Look for functional causes, such as the liver and gall bladder trouble. Any girl who Is as thin as you are must have a tendency to extreme nervous ness, tnd this is no doubt what keeps you awake at night You need psy chological, as well as physiological, treatment Read every book you can get hold of on the subject of psy chology, auto-suggestion, psycho-analysts, etc. In addition to this, go to a good practitioner of psycho-analysis.
