A JUST jT IS ivfnshiii t turn from t X for a moment unci consider one service where there is, and has been, no hint of scandal, and where the people year after year, havo been getting a maximum service at minimum cost. Wc refer to the postoffice department, and particularly to the loyal and efficient service of the postal employee's, here in M-stlford and throughout tho country. It is little short of sensational -when one considers what every American citizen receives for placing a two- cent siamp on an envelope. Not from Med ford to New York City, ''for example, thousands of miles away, for this insignificant sum, but lie' performs this service day in and day out, with a speed and efficiency, which makes the American postal service the best in the civilized world. Med ford postal employees have recently joined in a country-wide movement to secure, through congress, nn increase in pay. No one can investigate the situation and deny that this increase is justified. While the cost of living since has increased 70 per cent, the postal employees' pay has increased but 50 per cent. More than that the maximum now asked for is only $200 per month, certainly a modest remuneration when the importance- of the service and the wages paid skilled labor in other fields, are considered. . As government workers, with a keen sense of public responsibility, the postal employees refuse to adopt methods adopted by employees in private industry, with results so beneficial to themselves. They make no threats. They merely ask for just treatment, and urge support for hills in congress which give the)n such treatment. In this reasonable request, the postal employees should receive the public support, which they unquestionably deserve.

Treatment of Gull Tho time to treat gallstone disease or Inflammation of th6 galluac is In tho stage .when. It is uncertain whether tho symptoms nro really dut to gall-, sac trouble. A glass of hot water sipped slowly on rising and at bed time, and plenty of cold water between meals, will prevent more trou bio than gallons of mineral water taken later on as a forlorn remedy. Though gallstones come high, we don't have to havo them. Why are the great majority of cases in women, DO per cent of them in women who have had children? Why is typhoid fever such a feature of the history of gall stone diseaso? Women are inclined to drink insufficient water, from habit and for the sake of avoiding the inconvenience resulting therefrom. Women get less exercise, especially insufficient walking In tho open air. when pregnant. Sedentary habit and inadequate liquid Intake predispose to gallstones. Typhoid germs tiro always eliminated through the gall-sac in typhoid fever; not strange that a few should remain there if the bile appar atus is torpid. But there Is no reason why expectant mothers should not take a daily walk thruout the waiting period; in fact this is tho best ossur- mco of a normal labor. Typhoid fever is now as unnecessary for the In divided, as Is smallpox. And as for neglected teeth and Itlgg's disease and Infected tonsils- portals of entry for other germs which produce gallstones all of those are preventable or cur iblc If not allowed to go too far, Ilotli as prevention and as treat ment of it suspected case of gall-sac trouble, the following measures are valuable: 1. A diet containing a minimum of meat and a maximum of fresh fruits. Tho less meat a race consumes tho less prevalent are appendicitis, gas- trie ulcer and gall stones. A bulky, largely vegetarian diet overcomes in testinal stusis (constipation) in na ture's way. 2. At least three pints of water each day, besides tho liquid. In or with regular food. Pne can scarcely Irink too much. 3. If constipation Is not prevented by the two measures just mentioned, a few doses of paraffin oil (liquid pe trolatum, U. S. P.) should bo taken each day as an intestinal lubricant, instead of physics. 4.

Children' uro apt to stop and look at the baby. Can it get any communl cable disease in that way?

Yes, thero Is a chance of direct Infection with scar let fever If children along the way stop the baby to talk with him if perchance " one of the children has recently had scarlet fever in a mild form which escaped the attention of the health authorities or was con cealed by calling it something else, The baby is a target for everyone who hands him tho usual line of baby talk, for that brings him within the spray range, and some score of respiratory infections, of which scarlet fever Is but one, are communicated in that way. Of course, you can't keep the baby under a glass case or drive stakes and run a rope around him whenever you nee somebody approaching.

To the Editor: Developments In the past few years make it imperative that postal em ployes seek an increased . remunera tion for their services. Compensation of postoffice clerks and 'carriers throughout the United Slates at this time is nctually less than it Was ten years ago, despite a 50 per cent increase in pay since li13, the i lcrks nnd carriers are still far behind, as statistics show a 70 per cent increase in living cost over the same period. From this standpoint the postal workers are now getting 20 per cent less then they were ten years ngo when t lie maximum salary was $li00 per year. At tho same tinie the records of the postoffiee department show that the income of the department has increas ed 100 per cent in tile last ten years. Tile postal workers arc therefore giving a larger output per man limn ever before. The government Is get ting the benefit of this Increased ef ficiency. After n long legislative struKcle for a higher wage standard they accepted the act of congress of Juno 5, 1 y 2 0 increasing their wage to a maximum salary of $1800 n year not as a fi nulily, but as a tenvporary compro mise until such time as they pressed for tile fulfillment of their claims made before the postal salary com mission In 1010-1920. The time has now arrived when the postal workers who arc responsible for this improved postal service are asking lo share In the benefits, at least to the extent of a modest living salary. The time is past for assess ing the value of a postoffice employe at the poverty line. No elaborate array of statistics need he presented to prove their contention that the wage award of June 5, 1S20. was inadequate. In fact, it was the general thought at that lime that living costs would drop and thps ope rate to locreaso the real value of the postal dollar. Instend of a drop in prices, there has been a steady up wnrrt climb in many Items directly touching the postal worker's nay en velope. This Is particularly true of rents. Economists nnd in some instances paid propagandists for large business enterprises, nro fond of reminding th nago earners that wages must come out or production. Work more t get more, is tne advice. Apply this economic truism to tho postal service nnd we find n compelling reason for nigner pay .schedule, n ,-an't he doubted that the output per person in the poslal servico todav Is about double that of decade ago.
