Today, Medfonl is host to the state niedieal society, formed pri marily for the purpose of promoting the public, health. One pur pose! of such u irutlicriiiK is Ihe exehanjre of ideas bet-ween members of the profession, but even a (.'renter purpose is education' of the public, . regarding fundamental rules of health promotion, and the prevention of disease. Little can be accomplished face of public indifference, or if co-operate. Therefore, Ihe state medical association has arriiiifted for a pub lic meet inn at cisiht o'clock tonight, at, the Klks Tomple, when some of the leaders of the medical profession in this state will dis cuss the problems of public health. The .Mail Tribune lilacs the people of Medford to attend this incetintr, not only as a courtesy to their visitors, but as an invest ment in (jood health for themselves. Nature has been termed the best doctor. !ut Nature can do untliiiiK without knowledge of natural laws on the part of the in dividual. At tonitiht's mecliiip the work of the On-con Public Health I.eanue will be fully explained,' and the salient features of disease prevention will be elucidated, so the layman can understand. The program has been carefully prepared, and represents many months' work on the part of the State -Medical Society, not for themselves, but for the people of Southern Oregon. This work will be thrown away unless the people of Southern Oregon take enough interest, in the problem of public health to Attend.

Hero la an Interesting query signed by a hitfh aehool girl and written on Htatlnnery bearing the, hiKh nchool legend: , "My Dear Doctor Tlrady: We huvo a science club in our high school , which meets weekly,. The past part of the weekly program Ik devoted to a forum. Re cently' the subject of lamps used by phys icians was discussed, and. tltla led to the question of regular or Irregular physicians. Mr , our chemistry teacher, condemned ir regular heulers, such as (a brand of short cut fad healers) from the stn.ndno.nt of their educational quali fications and the pseudo scientific ba sis upon which they practice. This re sulted In much objection on the part of some of the members of the class. who had received monthly announce ments from (local practitioners of the pseudo scientific 'system of -healing) telling of their remarkable successes in healing and some of the pupils knew of cases that had been healed by them. Mr. (the chemistry teacher) said that many quack heal ers could hnve testimonials 'written up and signed by actual persons for a consideration of three dollars, more or less. He said that the recovery In ho mo oases would be natural enough if there weie nothing really wrong in the first place, an aspect of tho question which he referred to our psychology teacher. Ha said that re covery occurs in many cases through nature s work alone, as regular or eduoated doctors are frank to con cede, hut Irregulars claim the credit for such recoveries occurring under their treatment. The teacher finally said that we had better let the ques tion rest with our own family physi cians or we might write to you. There fore I ask if you will klAdly take the time to tell us as a club the viewpoint intelligent people should tuke on this matter. Very truly yours. 1 Secretary of Science Club. Now that school - is open we. can answere the request calmly and with out fear of successful malediction. lflrst I must say that the letter Is extraordinarily well written. I can't find a Bingle flaw In it. This is really extraordinary, in a letter from a school pupil or teacher. Some of tho letters I have received from teachers are almost incredibly erratic even In the - fundamentals of spelling nnd punetuation. and It Is really excep tional to receivo a correctly written letter from a high srhool pupil, a gen uine letter I menu, and not one written for tho express purpose of displaying letter writing nMlity. They teach a lot of folderol In the Kngllsh 'course in high school these days, but remark ably little Kngllsh. The stints of homework" generally laid out In the KngHsh classes nro mainly mere time onsumers. such as nn assignment to wrlti an essay of not less than 600 words on a subject which should be discussed in 100 words. This is typi cal of all "homework" in high Bchools where the abuse prevails. The chemistry teacher's observa tions about regular nnd Irregular healers were correct. No ono purport ing to have any scientific knowledge could hoM any other view. The "ob jection" of some of the pupils was harncter'stic of the educational un fitness of the youth of the day: in fact tho kind of instruction high school pupils are getting today seems calcu- ltited.not to relieve them of their lit I ling, comnlnlnt. Thev know mnnv thing's 'whichlnt so." nnd not' only lo they knrhv;n great deal In that way but they have supreme . confidence and assurance In their knowledge. which explains their "objection" to the facts given by the rhtMiilstry teacher in this Instance. I have often tried to convey tho suggest Ion that our popular education Is controlled by PUZZLE STORY COUNTRY exploting interests, and here. I think, fs a hit of evidence indicating how ef. foctive Is the ndverse influence. Some of these high school pupils will bo come legislators perhaps, and in the legislature their "objection" to science or truth will be translated into vicious laws, class legislation, granting privilege and standing to the children of their exploiters that these may the more thoroughly exploit their child ren. QI KSTIONK AND AXKAVKRS.'. ... Hod Spot In iris. I have grey eyes, but they are mar red with red of brownish spots around the pupil which makes them look like i a dull tan. AVhnt is tho cause of this land how can the spots be removed? (M. W. S.) t Answer The pigment In all eyes Is brown. If there is very little pigment in the iris (cplored ring around pu pil), the eyes are' called "bltie" or a little more nigment gives "grey" eyes; still more pfgment gives "brown" eyes, and the deepest pigment gives "black" eyes. Sometimes the pigment Is un evenly distributed through the Iris; there is no way to change that. I lulialo mid Kxpand I 'Does the abdomen ordinarily ex pand when one inhales or when one exhales? (M. L.) Answer Naturally the lower part of the chest and the abdomen expand with Inhalation and by their own elacr tlclty resume the original relaxed posi tion when ono exhales. .This is not contraction; to contract abdomen or chest, ono must forcibly exhale, which Is not natural breathing. - What to lo for Various Ailments 1. Pleace tell me what to do for kidney trouble. 2. Also indigestion nnd shortness of breath. (O. J.) Answer 1 Send for your doctor. 2. Call him up again nnd inform him you're getting worse. IFyporCKlhctlc Rhlnili Please tell mo what hyperesthetic rhinitis is and what may be the cause. My daughter, aged 18, hns had this trouble since she was three years old. One surgeon removed the turbinates. I-know you do not believe in submit ting symptoms for people to try on. but that Is one reason why I should esteem your advice on this subject. (Mrs. . F.) Answer Tho best knowledge we have is thnt it is due to n defect in cal cium metubollsm: usually blood analy sis shows less than the normnl pro portion of cnlcium. Calcium chlnrld or calcium Inctato may be taken In ternnlly, say 20 grains daily, dissolved In plenty of water, nnd generally some ductless gland hormone, either thyroid or parathyroid is necessary nt the snmetlme to Improve calcium metabolism, nnd this requires medlcnl direction.

Isaacs Returns From San Francisco Show Clayton Isnncs, sales mnnnger for Palmer's P 1 n n o House, returned Tuesday from San Francisco where he attended the radio exposition.

A recent announcement that he had written out IiIh own divorce decree brings Mustnpha Kemnl Pasha Into the lime light again. Itising from Ihe lowly position of outlaw and relief lo dictator and presi dent of the Turk ish republic, he hns long been a figm' in I bo public eye Aflr his marriage to U-Uifo lluiiouin, tho daughter of a wealthy merchant of Smyrna, he ad vocated reforms of tho conditions un der which TurkLsh women were living. Two months after his marriage he in vited women to a banquet with men. This was the first time that women had mingled with men at a Turkish function and it was the first time that the government had approved of wo men going outside their homes nfier sundown. Then word that he had written out his own' certificate of. di vorce was published, it was was inti mated it was Iatife Kemal who de sired the separation. In lit 2 4 Mustapha Kemal entered Smyrna after it had beerToccupied hy the Greeks. Happy at their liberation from Greek surveillance a group of young girls- rushed from a house to greet Kemal Pasha and his staff. Among them was latife Hanoum. She invited him to make his headquar ters at her home, A short time Inter they were married in true western fashion. She w-as peril a pn the first Turkish girl to be wedded to her fu- ture husband in his presence. Edu cated In France and England, she had become famil iar with Occidental manors and cus toms. The veil which Turkish wo men wore was abandoned nnd she often appeared In riding breeches. She ncocmpanied her husband everywhere. Gossip hns It that LrUtlfe Kemal, unlike most Turk Latife ,KEVL ish women, had ideas of her own and refused to be subjugated by her husband. Perhaps it was at her dictation that he wrote out a decree of divorcement, since only men in Turkey can issue such a decree. Poems That Live The liivoune of the Dead. The muffled drum's sad roll has beat The soldier's last tatoo; No more on Life's parade shall meet That brave nnd fallen few. On fame's eternal camping-ground Their silent tents aro spread. And Glory guards, with solemn round The bivouac of the dead. Long had tho doubtful conflict rnged O'er nil that stricken plain. For never fiercer fight hntl raged The vengeful blood of Spain; And still the storm of battle blew, Still swelled the gory tide; Not long, our stout old chieftain knew. Such odds his strength could hide. Thus 'noath their parent turf thev rest, Far from the gory field.

To the Editor: The Saturday Evening Post Is printing a serial article entitled "One Man's Life," by tho late Herbert Quick. The issue of August 29 coninins i reierence to too neriormnnces "i the Andrews Onern comnanv in the early days of that organization. The article goes on to relate ex periences in production by amateurs of "The Chimes of Normandy" and of the "Pirntes." It was necessnry to impress for these casts members of the various chairs of Mason City churches. An observing critic at that time publish ed the declaration that the Episco palian ladles were the best dancers, but the prettiest legs undoubtedly belonged to tho Methodists. In a successful effort to save the situa tion, it seems that Quick was draft ed into the character of the pirate chieftain. It was during these rehearsals that two unnamed, hut professional vil lains were overheard from their sta tion In tho wings to pass comment on the show. Whether these scouts were Ed nnd George Andrews or one of them Charles Hazclrigg, the his tory does not confirm. It has been thought of local interest sufficient to bring these episodes to the at tention of your readers, and at this time, since this same talent Is now In process of the revival of "Tho Pirates." Please he advised that In use of the word "revival," no refer ence to Methodistical affiliations of the cast nt Klamath Falls Is to be inferred, despite tho plensing lighting and other effects, which I understand to be in the hands of Tom Swem. While nt this point ft might he well to reflect on the description of tho stage settings used in Quick's day for "The Pirates." The tradition of this scenery de scends to the present, ns witness the rork-bound harsh nnd sombre Pen zance coast which nt tho Medford production formed the contrast with the sprightly Stanley offspring. Well might those rocks suffer in 40 years a sea change into coral, nmber nnd pearl in compliment to their ani mated co-workers on the stage. Another point mentioned hv Quick Is the use of r batons hv the stage policemen in imitation nf bugles, while blowing their "taran-tn-ra." I believe this completes the evi dence tvilig un the Identity of the a f nre-in Id Andrews brothers or llazel riirg wild the professional critics at Quick's rehenrpnl. We hnve only to remember the bugle "business" bv the . "lolnnthe" peers ns well nn that "f the last "Pirntes" production, when "A cry more tunable was never halloo'd to. nor cheered with horn.
