THE economic depression from 1 which the United States is just emerging is the seventh major at tack of "hard times" that this coun- try has been through in less than a hundred years. The people who are scared almost to death for fear that Amercia can't come back are not a bit worse scared than were the same type of timid-minded folk in each of these previous panics. But as we all know, America came back after every one of them, and came back stronger than ever. The first great financial crisis was in 1837, when practically every bank in the United States suspend ed payment, half of the property of the nation was sold in bankruptcy proceedings and there was no work for anybody and nobody had any money. But we came back so strongly that in less than twenty years our national wealth had been multiplied by three. . We came back from the crisis of 1857, went through a terrific and devastating Civil War and again much more than doubled our na tional wealth in the course of six teen years. Then we had the panic of 1873, and that was followed by another great rewial that again doubled our national wealth, until the panic of 1893. We came back from that one richer than before. and we did the same thing after the crises of 1907 and 1920. Everybody knows how rapidly our waelth in creased between 1921 and 1929, how prosperous everybody was in those fat years. There is only one way to foretell the future, and that is by studying the past It is as certain as any thing can be that we are coming out of the present crisis toward a greater and more widespread pros perity than we have ever known. And if we have any sense we will take greater precautions against another depression than we did against this one. TOWN AND COUNTY GOVERNMENT. Autocaater Service. rROFESSOR THOMAS A REED, i director of the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan, has been making study of rural local governments in the United States and has come to the conclusion that there are too many of them, that they are too expensive and that they are out of The Pioneer Hero If an na usual picture of the Pioneer on the University of Oregon campus, for It Isn't often that there Is such a full of snow as the recent one at Eugene. The snow on the hat, the shoulder and -he whip of the Pioneer, sculptored by A. Phlmlster Proctor, makes him a very realistic one, a replica of thoee people who dared the storms to make Oregon poaa-ow. date and unnecessary. In the early days, when It was a day's journey to go ten miles to the court house and back, and a hard ship on children to send them more than a mile to school, the nation needed seats e government and of education close to or in every com munity. Professor Reed points out that it is no more trouble today to gc sixty miles to the court house than it used to be to go ten miles, and believes that the answer is go ing to be found in the consolidation of counties and the elimination of superfluous township governments, all of which will tend to reduce lo cal taxation. The movement toward consolidat ing country schools and hauling children from a radius of ten or fifteen miles to a good, centrally lo cated, graded school, is growing all over the country. The little one room schoolhouse is a survival from primitive times; it was picturesque but on the whole inefficient, Frol. Reed thinks. We don't expect to see such radi cal changes in our time as Prof. Reed thinks will come eventually, but we are inclined to agree with him that, taking the country as a whole, the cost to the taxpayers of local government is out of all pro portion to the needs, and that one way of reducing this would be to reduce the number of local govern mental units and make each one cover a larger territory. National Body Gives $900 For O.S.C. Research Work Recognition of research carried on by the veterinary medicine de partment at Oregon State college has come in the form of a grant of $900 by the National Research council of Washington D. C. to be used in continuing the studies that have been made in the control of salmon poisoning of dogs. Investigations of this malady car ried on at the college as a side is sue by members of the staff have resulted in a positive method of im munizing dogs against this disease which is caused by a parasite con tained in fresh-water salmon and trout in western Oregon and Wash ington. The study failed to reveal, however, the exact nature of the infection carried by these parasites, and as certain angles of the case indicate a possible new develop ment in medical science, the Na tional Research council has sup plied funds to carry on the research under direction of Dr. B.

Trudges On J 'III Will the Groundhog Stay Out?. By Albert T. Reid 7he FAivMY JOHNJOS.PHeAINM A REVIEW. Within the last week I have had quite a patronage in "blood pres sure cases." In this particular in terval, all the subjects were ladies I could not help noticing similarity that was almost uniform. All were women past middle age 60 and be yond. All were of stout build 170 pounds or over, in weight. All except one a Jewess were farm dwellers. All except the Jewish la dy were of fair complexion. - Most all were of German extraction, lib eral feeders. All except the city woman had reared large families of children. All of them, without exception, carried their high ten sion without kidney disease. It is very common these days to encounter eases of high blood-pressure, the kind that produces hem orrhage In the brain, and, paralysis, if not sudden life ending. Hence the subject is of rather keen im portance, both to patient and phy sician. First of all in the treat ment the cause must be sought for. My habit is, first, to test for kid ney disease, that oemg in many cases co-incident with high arterial tension. If not- "kidney trouble," what then? Well are the arteries hardened? Or, Is there evidence of a chronic liver derangement? How about the spleen, the largest of the ductless glands? Is there any fo cus of infection by harmful germs? What of the elimination by bowel and kidney? Is the colon func tioning? The heart? The volun tary and sympathetic nervous sys tems? Lastly, the blood-condition as to vicosity, and its power to properly feed the muscular system. which includes the heart Itself. Diet? ' Regulate it according to need, not routine. We are progressing slowly, It may be and thoughtful patients certainly aid the physician. That's the "why" of this letter. Local ads Id the Gazette Times bring results BUD'h' BUB oo 2j! CONTAGIOUS SORES. From State Board of Health. What is commonly called conta gious eruption, barber's impetigo, football impetigo, bath-house im petigo is scientifically known as impetigo contagiosa. In early days the formation of pus in the skin was regarded as a special disease to which the term impetigo was applied. Impetigo contagiosa is one of the most frequent and most contagious skin diseases found in young school children. It is very common in the rural schools of this state and the city schools are not entirely free from this troublesome Aids Town by Running One-Man Bank n .tAK V-"",J ..dp- l : 5 Q . aiirj 1-- ,, Edward Groth, former messenger and teller for the Hammond, (Ind.)

No laws are said to exist for the governance of the Gruth institution. bud a high hatter infection. The eruption Is most frequently seen on the face and generally comes under observation as a collective yellowish crust which appears as if "stuck on.' Careful observation will disclose the earliest state of the eruption. The eruption begins as a tiny blis ter which enlarges to the size of a split pea or larger. This blister fills with pus, then breaks, and as it dries forms a yellowish crust The outer edge of the crust tends to cup up. Dargeer blisters of im petigo result from the confluence of several smaller blisters. .The discomfort slight itchnig and sting ing induce rubbing and scratching By ED KRESSY and consequently rupture of the thin roof of the blister; whereupon serum freely exudes, and though the face is the foremost site of the eruption the infection is carried by Infected finger nails to distant parts of the body, and new crops of pus tules may appear on the hands, arms, legs or body. The only part of the body that escapes is the space between the shoulder blades since it cannot be reachde with the finger nails. On the face and around the mouth and nose the crust forms wreath-like figures. The course of the disease is in definite. A single patch will dis appear in seven to ten days if no new innoculation occurs, but the disease will continue as long as in oculation takes place. It frequent ly continues for weeks and even months and becomes extensive where its character is not recog nized and prpoer treatment Is not instituted. It occurs most fre quently in the poor and uncleanly but is not confined to any class of society. All that is required for its production is the broken or abrad ed Bkln and the presence of pus or ganisms. I tis frequently caused! in men by the abrasions produced by shaving. The disease is spread from one person to another thru direct contact by wash cloths, tow els or anything that comes in con tact with the sore. Epidemics of impetigo are frequently excited through the exchange of clothing and the common use of towels, swimming suits aad sweat shirts.. It is very contagious. A child who has the sores should be excluded from school and special care must be exercised to prevent the spread of the disease in the home. Th disease is very easy to cure and to prevent The only cases which are troublesome after they are recognized are those which are produced by scratching or result ing from some irremovable and un- discernlble cause. The treatment is simple and effective. The crusts can be removed by soaking in ster ilized olive or cotton seed oil until they are easily detached. After the removla of the crutss applica tion should be made twice daily of mild ammoniated mercury oint ment. This will complete the heal ing in a few days leaving only the after-redness which in time grad ually disappears. Absolute cleanli ness is the great preventive and cure. The avoidance of the com mon use of hair brushes, combs, caps, towels, and the application of common sense sanitary precau tions will practically prevent the extensive Introduction of the in fection into a community.
