FLYING OFFICE OF
UNDY ARRIVES AT
T
OLENDALB, Cnl., March 23.
With tho arrival of Colonel!
Chnrlea A. Lindbergh' "flying
office-" City of Columbus, at tluv
Orand Central olr terminal here,
friends of tho famous aviator to- j
day wero speculating on reports
that Undborgh had tho large nnd
luxurious ship brought here for
the purpose of using it to bring
hts prospective bride, Miss Anne
Morrow, bnck to tho l."nlt: Hlntc
following the -wedding ftv Mexico, j
The large tri-motorcd plane wan
built as a ."flying office" for
Llndhergh, and In furnished with
tho most modern equipment nnd
conveniences. According to re
ports nt tho flying field the City
of Columbus will remain hero
threo days nnd then depart for
nn unknown destination. Colonel
Lindbergh Is scheduled to fly to
Han Francisco today nnd rMurn
tomorrow.
Tho rumor going tho rounds
among his friends here Is that
Lindbergh will take Q:irge of the
f'lty of Columbus nundny nnd
fly it to Mexico City for the wed
ding, scheduled for "the Kaster
holidays" and then take his hrl'l"
on an nerlal honeymoon In the
huge air liner.
IN DOLLARS
DOLLARS A -VI) CENTS will bo the dcciflinK factor in the
iriinds of those visiting the polls un April 2 to icuister
their wishes reuiirdinp the issunnetf of lionds for a new Clnss
"A" airport. It is n eleiir-cut proposition and dollars nnd rents
SHOULD be thn pnrnmount factor. '
The Mail Tribune advociites a business-like investigation ol
the necessity for the new field and the benefits which will
neertie from ils establishment. The voter who wants to know
will find that the present site, established in 102 as the first
landing field in the state, lias already been rendered entirely
inadequate through the rapid prowth of aviation. At present
it stands condemned by both Army and Navy for the landing
of larger aircraft. The Aviation Insurance I'nderwriters refuse
to sanction the landing of 'planes, on the field and the I'liion
Air Liners now visit Montague, Calif., instead of the local field
because the small runways liere present loo jircaf a risk for
the larpre passenger ships. . , ' V. ..'.
Flanked by Hear creek on the east and by the fairgrounds
tracks and buildings on the west, Newell Harlier field cannot
be widened nor can it be lengthened because of equally insur
mountable barriers north and south.
As to benefits to come from the proposed expenditure for
n new field the voter lias reasonable expeelation that Medford
will be able to keep pace wilh the requirements for large planes
used over the coast route. Medford is a key city in aerial
traffic between Portland the Hay district. Flight must be
broken at or near Medford, and if no effort is made here, lo'pro
vide facilities for lunding, we will surely enjoy the doubtful
privilege of. seeing the big ships fly over our city to some
neighboring point. . ; ., , '
The United Stales department of commerce recognizes the
strategical location of Medford for n terminal' airport. This
approval lias been shown beyond question by the plan to estab
lish a $70,009 super-radio and enlarged weather station here.
These plants would furnish eomplcte .-metcorological and aero
logical servico on u 24-hour basis for aerial navigators and the
two, with the large fiersonnel required, would add considerably
to Medford 's payroll. "' .......
,The department has also planned the installation of a great
beacon light at n cost of many thousand dollars.
These facilities are not meant, however, for a city without
a modern uirport where any or
they ai'c planned as component parts of it Class "A" airport.
Investigation of probable returns froin tho proposed landing
field will prove to voters that from. its. inception the plant will
provide considerable income. Leases to air mail contract lines,
passenger and express lines, oil companies, private airplanes,
hangars, piano storage, pilot quarters, shops, restaurants and
other concessions will return a" gross revenue estimated at
$4500 for tho first year and increasing thereafter. In addition
to' this sum is the payroll for workers of tho air 'transport
lines, government employes and others pertaining lo the indus
try, of approximately $80,000 per year:
These arc among the principal items which should engage
the attention of, the voter who wishes to be informed on the
uirport question as a business proposition. Tho information
is easily obtainable and apart from the sentimental question oi
keeping Medford iWthelfoMfront'iii aViation ak wells irt cither,
respects, lire convincing enough to carry the bond issue without
question on April 2. (E. C. F.)

EAT YEIXOW FOODS
Vitamin A was the second vita
min to be discovered. , Vitamin B
was the first but they didn't begin
naming em right
awuy. Vitamin A
is essential, espe
, cially for infants
and children1, to
prevent res plra
.tory infections or
to enable the In
dividual . Jo dc-
, volop the highest
attainablo degree
of immunity
against respiratory infections (you
know the long list we call the cri)
or maybo you don't, but anyway
wo can't stop now to rcclto tho list
for you to prevent a kind of eye
inflammation called ophthalmia,
another condition known ns night
blindness, and probably o enable
tho young to grow at a normal
rate.
If chickens do not get an ade
quate quantity of vitamin A they
not only fail to grow but they de
velop tho characteristic eye disease
and often their kidneys are found
filled with crystals of uric acid
feeling like a bag of sand between
tne;tingers. ;
Just what this vitamin A is no-!
body knows. All tho scientists!
know about It is that various foods
contain plenty of it, and It is In-.:
dispensable in tho nutrition of thoj
young body. The body seems to '
he able to storo vory llttlo vitamin j
A even whon there is an nmplo
n mount provided in tho food; what
llttlo fg stored is probably stored In
the liver. Hut fortunately vitamin
A Is so widely distributed In nat
ural foods that It is seldom neces
sary to fall back on the reserve
store in the body, except in time
of famine. '
These items contain vitamin A.
Notice that nearly all tho items in
tho list are yellow in color:
Tho liver oils of various fish,
especially cod liver oil. Tho liver
of almost any animal; also sweot
broadu; also kidney. Egg yolk.
Butter, whole fresh raw milk, fresh
raw cream. Oranges. Carrots.
Yellow corn. Sweet potatoes. Any
green leafy rollsh One may cat raw,
such as watercress, celery leaves,
lettuce,, contains some vitamin A;
but the red vegetables, uch as
beets, radishes, and white, such ns
potato, white corn, "white turnip,
contain llttlo of this vitamin. .
Vitamin A withstands . ordinary
cttoking somewhat better than does.
vitamin C, for instance, though it
is better to take vitamin A foods
raw so far as possible; also fresh
as possible, for storage or pro
longed keeping destroys tho vita
min. .
jFor adults who f suffor from
chrome or recurring slhusit's arid
other infections of the upper res
piratory membranes, such as run
ning ear or mastoiditis,"! commend
an ample supply of vitamin A, In
the form of a regular dally dose
or two of plain cod liver oil to
gether with a car to include the
yellow foods in the regular, menu.
It Just happens that oranges are
included In the list, but lest some
big orange nnd. baloney man take
tudvantage of this coincident, I ns
sure the reader now that one little
carrot of half tho sizo and about
one-tenth the prlco of an orange
will go as far toward the preven
tion of tho flu and all that sort
of thing as tho sunniest orange
ever ripened under tho arc lamp
nemember, nil that vitamin A can
do in this way Is to aid tho de
velopment of a fairly normal de
gree of Immunity, such as most of
us havo without thinking about it
at nil. Onco one has attained that
degree of' immunity ngninst cri
(common respiratory infections)
not nnother thing is to bo gained
by filling up on vitamin A. . A car
rot a dny will keep away as many
doctors as a whole bushol of car
rots a day can. 1

there any euro for inside goiter

Answer. Please excuse me. I
am sure It in not for the good of
anyone's henlth to listen to descrip
tion of disense by a doctor. Are
you not handling the matter from
the wrong end? Tho patient
should describe his feelings or com
plaint to tho doctor; then the doc
tor will examine the patient; nnd
in this way maybe the doctor can
determine what Is the matter.

many different opinions about
same. I can consume anything,

' Answer.-r if Hen Told Is your,
physician, you should follow his
advice. ,1 have repeatedly recom
mended the practice of eating at
least one raw vegotable daily, for

objection to your practice, unless
it be the excess of nourishment, If
one ; really prefers all vegetables
raw, that is the way for him. to
eat them; but if one profcrs- cer
tain vegetables cooked, that is the:
way for him to eat them. No
sense In being nutty about diet: J
doubt If it Is advisable 'for any
body to eat anything raw unless
he likes It that way. On the-other
hand, I believe it Is healthful for
anybody to eat. everything raw if
he prefers it that way. Of course
it Is necessary to take certain pre
cautions against Infestation with
animal parasites and against in
fection with germs or poisoning by
germ products,. If food is not

another point of view, (1) straight
