Tho rain that this cot. predicted for today Is conspicuous by Us ' absence. There wus a mild splut terlnK this morning, bo a moral victory Is won, and, like tho Uni versity of Oregon football teuin, wo aro defeated but not disgraced. Nevertheless, a moral victory is worse than nil 'immoral defeat. Our-predlctlons of rain wero based solely upon two horetoforo unfuil ins conditions, vlu: " la) C'.v Wln,Ahpolu' testluiony Unit tho files wore biting flercoly; (b)-Aaron Hchollais' allegation that his principal coin win hurt Inaj.; Wo did not havo much faith In Mr. Antipole's -flies, but , tills Is tho first' jtlnic Mr. SchulliuV cum 'halt been fickle.

Itl.VIXItV Itl'NS AMII'K (KntHirla, Kan., iii.ctte) Pedestrians on t'onnuereial street wero greatly, amused Wednesday night lis they wero forced to dodgo a guy party of bicyclists who paddled up antl down tho sldewulks playfully running over promcnndoiV heels and occasionally crash ing Intu neatly dressed women. Most of Iho new aunts have been picked, and most of tho fur coats havo been paf'r-d. One of our uuuh nien, who til wayH worked and bohnved himself, 1b being doomed for tho legisla ture. Mrs. Alexander Pnntngea hits hocn found guilty of driving while Intoxicated and having too much muitey. '- It has long been tho custom to believe that If a man was a far mer, ho was- an Inferno of work, und nothing hut a horse wearing pants, ho had . to work so hard. No matter what time you get up. a farmer bus always been up two hours working. The following clipping allows that tho guls on the farm are not Indolent loafers, who spend their time . reading stories about' Lord Wllloughby und his loves,- Jload the following routine of a dull day, and rofleet: Arise at T make the fires: pall ' tho cows: cook breakfast: wuko up Vour hubby and drcps the chil dren; 'ejon-o breakfast; get the children off to school; wash dlshus; make up tho beds: sweep tip tho floors; feed tho chickens; rdup tho pigs; get ('.Inner; servo tho moat; wash dishes: do the mending; bake a eako: churn; wash out a few things; get supper: servo It; pall tho cows; clean up tho dishes; help tho children with their lessons; find hubby's pipe; more mending; put the children to bed; listen to hubby's lecture on how to eavo by doing without things; close up the house; bunk the fire; quiet a cross baby, ami go to sleep. Hcpeat this sevon days a week. We do not doubt but what the bravo and beautiful ludles on the farm do all the above, and a num ber of chorea omitted from the list. What this town lunkhead cun not understand Is how, after all thla stronuous toll, seven dttjs a week, they atay oa fat and plump und stout aa their city ninturs or more ao, A JUST TO those familiar with conditions. in Ixw Angclcx the past tie cade, the conviction of Mrs. l'untugcs ou u niiiiislaughtcr charge will coine as a (front surprise. ( At the time of lief arrest in Hollywood, there was no ques tion in the public mind that the wife of the vuudeville liuigmitc was intoxicated, anil that the fatal accident was due to that in toxication. There were too iiiany people on the street who saw Mrs. I'mitiifies before and after the crash, to leave any reason able doubt as far us the man in the street was concerned. ., Nevertheless, when thc'lrinl opened, it was the wiinc'imiii in the street" who. wits convinced thaOlvs. l'antages would never be convicted. With millions of dollars at her disposal, with the best lawyers in the country at her command, with the known tendencies of juries to be swayed by njipeals to emotion rather than reason ; it was freely maintained' that the worst the vaudeville millionairess could expect would be n hung jury. The Reverend "Bob" Shtiie'r in flict, (iiiclt"fo '' sense the drift of popular opinion, broadcast this opinion over the radio a few days after the trial stiiurled. BUT for once the astute Hob Shiilcr was mistaken, and so wns the "man in the street." They failed to realize that with the election of District Attorney Fills and the conviction oJ Asa Keyes, nothing short of a moral revolution was enacted in the county of Los Angeles. From unspeakable corruption to a militant regeneration, the scene was shifted almost overnight. What would have been inevitable two years ago was impossible in Ixs Angeles this week. Under such circumstances great health, and the power and social prominence it brings, instead of being a help to the defendant, became a handicap.' Mrs. Pantages was convicted and, true to type, was carried screaming and kicking from the room. ' ' - '.'.. 0 FEW7 people w ill find anything to exult over in such a sordid and depressing spectacle. At the same time any particular sympathy for the defendant would be misplaced. f any one thing must be eliminated from the American scene, it is the drunken automobile driver, woman or man. In the hands of an intoxicated person, the motor car ceases to be a conveyance, and becomes a deadly weapon. The sooner everyone realizes this, that regardless of money, prominence or other consideration, the place for any individual who mixes gasoline with liquor, is behind the bars, the better for all concerned. HERE, FANS WITH tho Ijotighrnii-Shiirkey conflict tonight, the world series in 12 days, and the football season following, the fall sport fan season can he said to have started in earnest. . Our old friend Arthur Brisbane frequently takes a whack at the sport fan, particularly the prize fight follower, who, he claims, pays money to see someone else fight, for lie hasn't the courage to fight himself. Mebbe so. Hut we notice in the current North American Review, Dr. A. A. Brill, prominent, psychiatriast, strenuously .defends the sport fan, inaii or woman, who would rather wutch a i game tlinii play -it. Tho mini who sits in an office or hIiukIu pusHlvcly boHltlu n ina 1 cliino nil week is likely lo do himself moro hnrni Ihun good by breaking out Willi a poind of strenuous exercise mi the tcnnlH court, baseball (liuniond or In the woods on SuUirduy, Mr. Drill believes. On tho other hand, tho sumo mint yelling himself lionise at a basehull or football gaiiio or boxing match will benefit both physi cally and menially by satisfying tho age-nltl comhntlvo Instinct ' which ho Inherits from eavo-dwelllng ancestors, ho sayfl. "It is not laziness that makes 99 funs to 0110 plnyor: It Is not tho difficulty of Inventing and providing guinea fur mull Initios of players. No, It Is tho fact that nn ancient Instinct, and a sound one, Impols tho average man to Identify himself with Hnbe Kuth, Jack Uempsey, Hill Tlhleii or Walter Itiigcn, rather than to play hiinsell' without distinction. "To play tho game, win or lose, would servo our physical need; but only triumph, tho downing of nn opponent, tho chrism of ap plause, can preservo our psychic health. That Is why I, for in stance, gnvo up playing golf. Tho exercise, tho walking nnd Ilia rhythmic swing of the arms were good for my body, but. my In ability to turn in it card below 100 was Imtl fur my ego." Sports supply n safety vulvt for emotions which olherwiso would he perverled under modern conditions. Dr. Brill says in Tim North American Review article. Mob violence, drunkonness and similar miinlfestalinns urn most prevalent among people who havo tho least opportunity to play or watch play, ho believes. Like most, special pleaders Dr. lirill probably goes to ex tremes to prove his point. At any rate, 'we believe n great deal of harm would be done if all golfers shooting ahovo the cen tury murk were to abandon the role of participant for spectator. But if one for any reason can't be active in a sport, we do believe genuine gonA, mental and physical, can be derived from being a fan and enthusiastically following it.

TUB WAYS O Mulaiia causes more sickness than any other single diBcaso In j tho plantations of the United Fruit company, in the West In dies, Central and Boulh American c o u n tries. But pneumonia causes the grcntcst nuin ber of death. What, In those balmy, ubtropi cal regions? Yea, pneumonia causes one of every six ot seven deaths among the fruit company's em ployees. There Is un Interesting comment on tho pneumonia haz ard In the seventeenth annual ror port of the United Fruit com pany's medical department.' It seems the doctors consider the high labor turnover a factor. Par ticularly In Honduras and Ouata mulu. they believe, tho constant shirting of labor, means a low Individual earning capacity; thlB in turn Interferes with tho ability of the workers to properly feed and clothe themselves, nnd con sequently Kolks, get set. The' United Fruit company's medlcul dcpurtmeiit Is. about to pull tho old gag , . and consequently lowers their resistance to all kinds of Infection. ' Dear me. I reckon tho medical brethren will never, never bo able to shako off that 'resistance' ob session. It is a premise accepted by tho doctors without giving it any thought; a Inzy sort of as sumption, for which there la no ground whatever. Immunity against pneumonia is conceivable; It constitutes the principle on which the modern serum treat ment' Is based. But - resistance, against "alt kinds of Infection" Is not conceivable, so we must conclude tho United Fruit com pany's physicians wero just , fill ing up a report when thoy opined that Improper food and clothing "lowers resistance to all kinds of Infection." That's the trouble with too many of our present day medical au thorities or writers. They ' fall Into this slovenly hnblt of accept-. log traditional theories or fnncles like that without pausing to ex amine them, and using these un substantial or exploded Ideas to build new theories on. That leaves us in the air, If wo nro not critical. I cltir this subject of . pneu monia In the sub-tropics mainly to Impress upon general readers the fact that pnoumonla is not' a! disease of cold countries or cli mates, and also to remind tho doctors who at III utter banalHtlea about "lowered resistance'' that, they are behaving a bit carelessly for prominent performers so high' In the air. I So fur ns our present scientific' knowledge goes, we are warranted in assuming only thai nn individual may develop a fair degreo of lin-j munily against pneumonia, when all tho conditions ore favorable. We do not know, and wo have noj scientific reason to assume . that the Individual Is likely to loso (nil part of the Immunity he has ac quired, if ho wears Improper or insufficient clothing or gets im proper or Insbf ficlcnt food. Idenlly it would be fine if we could hold over the layman's head tho threat thut. If he stays out too late nights or otherwise fails to obey the laws of hygiene he Is more likely to get pneumonia or something. Hon estly wo can't suy that, for ex perience does not bear out the Itleu. Dr. fiurgus concluded, and his great victories over pneumonia uniting laborers on tho TanamA citnttl uivt Inter on tho Hand, Houlh Africa, tndlcntc that ho was right, that crowding was the lm? IHt-tant can so of pneumonia. United Fruit company doctors should study tho work ot Corgus.
