An excellent idea! As every reader of the Congressional Record knows there is scarcely a congressman or senator who doesn't say n number of 'tilings that he would never say if he knew tliiit the "home folks" were listening in. The members of both tipper and lower )ioose( at times indulge in pratorical field newspapers for the good and sufficient reason that there is no news in lliem. in short, there is and always has been a tremendous amount of time wasted in Washington, a tremendous amount of nonsense in dulged in, largely because both houses enjoy something of the exclus ive irresponsibility of downtown clubs. The radio would eliminate all that. Senator Sorghum would cer tainly choose his words carefully if he knew that every syllable might be checked up to him by any radio fan in his district. There would bo fewer adjournments, and more quorums, with hungry constituents eager to know what congress is doing, day 'by day. Another advantage would be apparent during campaign time. At (lie moment, for example, two senators very much needed at Wash ington, Senator Hiram Johnson and Senator Jim Recti, are campaign ing in Illinois and Missouri respectively. With the radio they could stay oil the job, deliver their speeches on the floor of the senate, dur ing the evening recess reach their entire district and avoid all danger ul personal violence. In fact there seems to be everything in favor of this proposal and nothing against it. We suggest the Oregon delegation frame up a bill at once and start congress in as broadcasting station "T-l'-U."

When he's elected we expect some noble progress to detect; his boosters led us to believe a gorgeous fabric he would weave; we hardly know just what he'll spring, what epoch making, splendid thing, but he will surely pull some stunt to bring his office to the front. The months roll on, the seasons slip, the planets make trip nfter trip, and still the coroner reclines in ljizy case and gives no sins of diligence or talents high for which we watch with eager eye. And so in time we know the worst, which should have been perceived at first ; our coroner was never givnt ; he's just n com mon, garden skate.

Why Husbands fJu Wrons My husband, writes a very good cor.k, who is now reaping the re sults of her folly, Is nimost 39 years old,, 0 feet 5 inches tall and weighs 175 pounds. He Is broad shouldered and mus cular. Ho seemed to be in prlmu con dition when he plac ed footbul) at 1115. 'He Imagines , h e would feel more alert if ho would rest his teeth some times and lose a few puunds. Then Just think how much rest I could get from cooking and how much I might reduce tho gro cery bill! He eats a breakfast of fruit, cereal, apology for cream, toast or doughnut, .and coffee, a real meal at noon, and a light lunch at night. He walks briskly' 28 blocks to nnd from college every day, altogether, I mean, nnd chases up and down three huge flights of stairs many times a day. He tnkes long runs in the park -whenever he can spare the time once or twice x week. In between times he spends long hours at his desk, evenings, work ing on his books. Twenty-eight blocks Is an uncertain distance, but probably represents two miles. If a feller ticks off that dis tance on his pedometer three times a day, or bunches it all in one dizzy whirl In tho park In the evening he won't accumulate any alnrming lot of slacker flesh, provided lie isn't married to too gocTl a cook. This poor chap, burning the mid night electricity on his book, starts his days ail wrong, according to the testimony of his nutrition manager, by a carbohydrate orgy. If ho likes a al for breakfast, well and good, but to cram down toast or n doughnut or cakes of any kind on top of that is generally Just plain overeating. Ol course It might be all right if one is going out to oliop wood or heave coal or shovel sidewalks or pitch hay for tho clay, but- ordinarily thero Is no oc- asion to take such a superabundance of carbohydrate. (Carbohydrate, for the benefit of those who may have just tuned In, is almost everything good to eat, specifically anything made of starch or sugar.) It is very easy indeed for a seden tary person to consume at breakfast enough fuel to maintain the weight of a wood chopper. This is one way -to accumulate tho serious handicap of excess tweight. . .

A Wiil Aunko young IMiysldiin. ltecently you asserted that tho amount of waste matter eliminated thru tile sweat is negligible. You said that If any considerable portion of the skin is covered with varnish sleuth will follow, not because of non-ellmln-ntion of poisonous wuste matter, but from the rapid cooling effect. In physics class wo learn that a polished surface is a poor radiator of heat compared with a dull surface, and hardly any surface could radiate heat faster than one kept moist. This is the principle which keeps the water cool in canvas water bags. In view of these facts It would appear thnt covering the body with varnish would tend to overheat tho body rather than cool It off. How about it? (P. E.) Answer. Your physics sounds per fectly good to me, and yet physiology withstands to the contrary. If the surface of the body Is covered with an Impermeable coating death ensues in a vevy short time, with great reduc tion of body temperature, the tem perature falling as low ns TO degrees ,,-, m,i no ,l.,, .... ,,, ,,. .,.-, nr more of the body - surface is covered with varnish. Uut if the varnished nniiniU ' ho kept warm by artificial means,' no 111 effects ensue from the varnishing. Let your physics teacher fight this out with your physiology teacher but I suppose you have no physiology teacher, for physiology Is a rather unimportant subject in the average school. Blrtli Mark Please toll me what you think of specialist and leave tne meinoa io ins surgical judgment. by looking, that if wo didn't have -x country to back us up. there would be no such thing ns the beautiful homes we now sec. All the way from Ash land to Grants Pass we see virtually a paradise -on earth, Medford, Central Point, Gold Hill and several others of the Intermediate towns. Opportunities are here for all. you can get property for nice homes In any of those towns, at a very reasonable figure. Medford, we understand, hns disposed of her lots, or many of them, very recently. Central Point has a number of lots that can be bought very reasonable, and this Is an Ideal place for a home. Good schools, nnd churches, and a very quiet and industrious people. Their latch string is always hanging on the outside. We learn there is a sawmill going up soon, betwen Central Point nnd Medford. We nlready have the Southern. Oregon Clay Products Co. which was built last summer and is famous for Its output. We are in formed this company contemplates making further improvements thi coming summer nnd will furnish work for nbout 300 people. The time will be here in the nenr future when Cen tral Point and Medford will nil he one city. Why not? SIMPSON WILSON. Central Point, March 7. Is Antl-Oleo mil Right? To tho Editor: We have been hear ing the dnlrymen's bill to prevent the sale of oleomargarine In Oregon, dis cussed from various angles. And we also have been doing some thinking on tho subject. We read that in Tllla mook county the merchants .have agreed not to sell oleomargarine and the papers all ngrec not to advertiue it. It Is also said that this hill Is to wives that the men would not dure .vote for such a bill. So far as we are nware we nave never insiea oieoimu garine or other butter substitutes: but with all the food inspectors, pure food laws. etc.. it would seem that oleomar garino and other butter substitutes are Just as clean and healthful as the various cooking compounds on the market. And If we exclude one on the ground of unfitness (or human con-. sumption we should also exclude the other. Suppose the fruit growers organize and get a bill passed to exclude all citrus and other fruits from sale In Oregon, which are not grown in Ore-t-on? If one is ;:oud law and best for the people, why not the other? ONK OF THE TOILKUS, Kogue Itiver, Ore. ' Correction In Wilson Report. To the Editor; . I would appreciate space In your col umns to correct any erroneous impres sion that mny have developed through i the publication of thnt portion of my report referring to $21.8C5.03 as tax been made and with explanation given It is shown that only a small portion is mntter carried over. I regret that the information now given was not ad vanced when I had .the matter under discussion prior to rendering my .re port. The correctness of the clerical work in the sheriff's office force is commendable. The" method of distri bution insures detection of errors in conciliation and correct settlement of casionally improperly distributed and all errors of consequence in my report were of this nature. Regarding undistributed funds car ried by the sheriff, the treasurer is not required by law to nccept money from the sheriff unless distributed. Neitner is there any legal reason within my . Kn0wledge why undistributed funds suouid not be received from and cred- ..,, ,,., iinin-na which the sheriffs account does not command Kor the month of January, 1924, this 2 per cent interest on sheriff's daily cash and bank balances would reach around $113.

Ah, noj That m.Kht not be such n toothsome dish for the world's ureaicst professional bachelor. I FUppotfo it Is true that there is a feminine instinct' for captivating a man. Hut there, is also a natural mas culine instinct for capturing and pos sessing a woman, a mnte. So why spend beautiful words nnd phrases in trying to prove tho obvious? It isn't a battle of the sexes as Monsier Men cken would have us believe. It is the social instinct in which we are nil con cerned.
