PRESIDENT WILSON and his advisors have- not bc.-n unduly iiifliifii- d ly those who. with only the most sujierfii-ial knowledge of the l'a-ts. have been urging that this is the time for the L'nited States, either al.inc or with the other neutrals, to interfere in an attempt to stop the Etiroj)ean war. This may he tho time; the probabilities are that it is not. No one in this eountry can possibly be so well informed as to every aspeet of tin- European situation as is the pres ident. lie has all the information that, any of the rest of us have, plus the eonfidenti.il information from American ambassadors in all of tjie belligerent and neutral capitals. There can be no doubt that I'rrsident Wilson will eag erly Ki-nsp the first reyl opportunity, for being of sej-yiee to the warring nations in helping them toarrive at a basis for peace not only among themselves, but a peace to include, all the nations of the earth. If we give the president credit for this mental attitude toward the European war and at the same time credit him with being a man of rather extraordinary intelligence, the best way we can help him to decide wisely whether or not this is the time to sound a note of peace is to let him alone. It is not outside of the probabilities that the real pur pose hack of (leriuany's peace proposal, was to stampede the l'nited States into making a move for peace 'which would be considered unfriendly by (Jreat Britain and her allies and cause a sharp rejection which would react on American public sentiment in (ierniany's favor. There have been several crises since the war started in which the very best thing the American people eould do. in their own interest as well as in world interest, was "sit iigui Hint not jock me ooat. , ' , - This seems to be another fpf those crises.

And you do not work very well for a few days while you are coming down with your cold; then you stay away from work a few days more; then you work badly while that mean feeling lasts; and then there is the doctor's bill and the drug store expenses. Common colds have been estimated to cost the popula tion of certain states .:!,000,000 a year. Really, consider ing the advanced prices of medicine and the wages lost, only the well-to-do can afford to catch cold. Rut in this matter the poorest Can become "philanthro pists. Whoever manages to get through the winter with out his annual sneezing or coughing spell is conferring a benefit on the whole community. Thewi-arf two ways of putting the, high cost of colds for your own sake and of proving yourself a public bene factor as well : 1. Avoid exposure to infection when a member of the family brings it germ cold into the house, and if vou catch a cold, sneeze and cough behind your handkerchief and avoid infecting others. '2. Drink two (juarts of water a day; sleep with your bedroom windows wide open never mind the snow out side cover up; sit, stand and walk erect, and walk even day in the open air; keep clean; eat slowly and do not eat too much. I he ( hristnias feast is responsible for nianv a hard cold. Ruild up your vitality and your physical resistance and taking cold will cease to be a Dart of vour vearlv health historv and a tax on Vfiur income. Whiles, I differ with Mr. Heames as I to the-iadvlsabtlity of forming an ir rigation district at this time, I can npt,.' but feel that he hatr performed ' pnhlfc service. liy- que'stloninc the I canal company's supply of w ater, he lias mane it certain that no contract with that company will he entered into lightly by the district, but that careful .scrutiny and the employment of an independent engineer may be expected with confidence by the land owners. Dt'XBAR F. CARPENTER. To the Editor: I noticed a statement in the Mcd- ! ford Sun of Sunday, December 17, 1916, to the effect that Attorney New man, who appeared at the request of the committee In charge of the op position to the formation of the High line Irrigation District to advise upon the "law points" connected with the matted, was "greatly confused" by questions asked hjin by the farmers present, and I wish to say in Justice to Mr. Newman, that such statement is absolutely falisej that he handled the discussion of the law points in an nble manner and to the entire satjs- j faction of those JissemJjled, as was maniiesiett ay t.noj many exfrcsslbns of satisfaction hullo at tho meeting, those present were almost all against the formation of the district. I wish further to say that we farm ers feel that the Medford papers should be fair in the handling of this irrigation matter and not to look at it on one side only. If they will look Into the merits of the opposition of the" farmer. We u-i.h nlsn in oav j that we feel that dttr interest requires CHRISTMAS TREES ADVANCE IN PRICE AT SAN FRANCISCO SAX I'll.
