Ncckablo ladies testify, an arm is worth that much If the owner will quit put-ling- It around her neck, at the movie, and thereby keep the ro mantic scenes confined to the cur tain. For many years the sport writ ers of Eugene have amazed Ore gonians by their heavy thinking during the football season. They have produced some classics, but last Saturday in their deductions they excelled their own stem winding logic. Hays the esteemed Eugono Reg Inter: Although Oregon won by 19 points the difference between the strengths of each team was not represented. It would seem to the average numbskull In the brush, that the difference was amply represented by the Oregon Freshmen collecting IB (nineteen) more points. There Is nothing that could be more con vincing. Again the same account 'recites, learnedly: - The Huskies, with a fine set of power plays, smashed the ' Oregon line for yardago after yardage only to Iobo the ball on downs Just as it was ad vanced Into scoring distance. From this It can readily bo seen that the Washington team made yardage consistently, excopt when It counted. They could niako first down In the middle of the field, but they were unable to cut the mustard near the goat line, which Is located at the end of the field, not In the middle. It Is also charged, In another account of the battle, "that the Washington team excelled In every department of the game except scoring touchdowns." As touch downs are tho only thing that counts, It Is nn admirable quality. While no mention was mude of it, the Washington squad posed the best while the co-eds wcro looking, and called their signals In a musi cal voice.

IS HOLLYWOOD A ELFRKT1I Kli llawkiim, editor of the Nevada Cliirion, Up ton, Nevnda, lias returned from n visit to Ifollywood, and lias taken his pen in hand Apparently Kli saw the town, and didn't like it. At any rate haek in the pure and iindefiled atmosphere of 1'pton, he opines that Hollywood is not only the most damnable sink of sin and iniquity the sun has ever shown upon, but he predicts a catastrophe there, which will surpass anylhiiiK since "Hiblical times." Clara How appears to have observes this popular movie star to Harry Richman and admitted she only promised to marry him to "help a boy friend in' need." No one knew the Broad way soiif,' and dance man, when he arrived, but he immediately jumped into the limelight as the irrepressible Clara's consort, and then when the publicity had been achieved, Clara turned him down. .CpniS shameless flapper has been encased to Gilbert Rol and, Robert .Savage, Victor Klcniiiif;, (iarv Cooper and a dozen other powder puff champions," opines Kli, "and will probably be eiiKUKutl to a dozen ated outside of a patrol wagon anywhere in the world but Hollywood where she is feted and dined, us the leading artist and social belle. It makes any decent rod-blooded man's blood boil." We sympathize with Kli, rhetoric. Nevertheless we -can't quite share his indignation. After all why should Clara marry?- She is young, beautiful, and earns more money than any husband could provide. We know nothing of her private life (and euro nothing), but is breaking an engagement so sinful? Isn't it better to break six engagements than have six rivals have done? ' WK fear Kli is unduly exercised, and perhaps if be hadn't been so interested in seeing a certain side of Hollywood, he would have a clearer comprehension of it, as a whole. For Hollywood as wo see it, is merely a typical boom town of Southern California. It is neither as good as Ihc press agents claim nor as bad as is claimed by rural "whoopee" vis itors like Kli. It is simply average.

Kudler devotes thu tenth chupl'.T to worrieH, dreadn, obaea eions nnd anxieties. Somewhere in the course of thlH j chapter you aru sure to find your own pt phobia 1 aw t,wan, don't Itld yourself, If you are too in- V. siatent that .y o u M tm. nave no h u c h SW'-r willy obseHHion I'll . must be a littles dotty. Why, my ood grandmoth er, everybixly who Is anybody has a phobia or two concealed about Ills person. Ketter be frank enough to say ho and what ofit. Dr. Sadler'H book will bo a great disappointment to those poor seeks who .seek only a resounding name for their phobia and having found one that twits their -vanity, settle down to go through life resigned to their sad fate and boring the rest of the world ;y boasting of it. Perhaps some of us can remember the time when "nervous prostra tion'. was an exclusive affectation of the classes; it was not until It became "neurasthenia" that this grand old confrontation of phobias, obsessions and inferiority com plexes became prevalent among the masses. Well, pure unadulterated phobias are Just like that now. . It I'm afraid to climb above the sec ond story window on a ladder, it la because I am Just plain daft about altitude, vertical apace. Hut if you harbor a morbid dread of np- nroachlni! a nreclniee or the ledge of a tall building, it is a mark ot n ristocral in heri tage you r grea t great-great-grandmother was push ed off the crowded upper deck of the .Mayflower shortly before your g-g-grandfather was born. The essential thing is that your phobia be purely a phobia and not an imperative idea, if you know what I mean. You see, tho one is compatible with sanity; the other Is not. You clearly recognize your phobia hat. no foundation that's what makes you feel so foolish about It. In the event that you believe it Is a sound and sensible fear, n genuine premonition, an actual danger signal you heed, then by jingo, you're getting over the border line; maybe you are a bit cracked; and then again, maybe you are just exceptionally dumb. You may exnmlne your fe;tr nnd tako your choice. ; Kor instance, through bnd pre cept (our parents and teacher are responsible for most of our pho bias) let us nay one greatly fears being struck by IlKhtnlng. hvory time a rumble of thunder becomes audible one rushes for the well whatever line of hocus-pocus one resorts to in such emergencies, Along comes a cardonic" scientific bird nnd shows clearly how the danger from the lightning has pass ed before you hear the thunder. Look out, now. Here s where you betray your Imbecility or instanity. If that's your trouble. Do you go on using the same old methods of Ntaving off the danger, even after you know that your efforts are too late? If you do you're abnormal. If you have a reasonably sound mind you may still shudder at the sound of thunder wondering how close you may have been to ob livion when that flash pa.ssed your way 'but you'll never again stick your head under n pillow or apply a heathenish, superstitious charm to your Immediate environment to ward off the stroke.

Our clnss would very much like to know If there is such a thing as ptomaine poisoning. O. T. ' Answer. No. This was an ex planation formerly offered for out breaks of ttluess which we now red n:ulze botulism or other infection through food. llromlilc. Is the preparation put up by under the name of triple bromides In the cla.s with -the coal tar stuff you warn against. If not. Is there any value in triple bromides as n nerve sedative? O. J. 8. Answer. Any bromide Is n de i I'llOBIA? pressant to the motor and intel lectual brain centers, blows thought deereasct, the, normal excitability of all the brain centers. It is also de pressant or negative to the spinal cord, 'both tho. sensory and the mo tor pathways In 'the cord. Thus bromide tends to make nn indi vidual leatlmrfilc, dull inanimate. Jlromlde does not depress the heart so much as coal tar derivatives such as acetanilid do; nor does it break down red blood corpuscles nor interference with the oxygen carrying function of the blood as the coal tar dopes do. Oh, I Wish 1 hud This IjkI's Courage. Just a note to thank you for some advice you gave us about go ing barheaded. All the wise ones assured mo I would suffer every thing from dangerous colds to dis abling rheumatism "some day" if I persisted. But I have persisted, and I don't believe I shall ever rgaln wear a hat. I have a good coat of tan, and I don't feel the need for any other protection. Thanking you once more for this and many other good health sug gestions members of my family have received from your column. Answer. Congratulations for your courage. I've been flirting with the lidless custom for a year or two and I still weaken some times and done the old lid purely for conventionality. Just the same I do admire the spirit and envy the comfort of the man who, not' withstanding a drought or an ox pause of denudation over the polar area, goes without a hat every where and all the time. Of course if you have a good thatch over your dome It doesn't require cour age to throw away your hat. I take It you're the head of a family and as such entitled to a moderate atopesia of the crown. (Copyright John F. Dille Co.) BrisbanesToday (Continued from Page On) marvels of history, whatever may be the final result. Most surprising is that Mus sulini has been so little spoiled by his Kuccess. The king still sits on his throne, and while Mussolini's word is absolute law, forms of government are carried out in the usual way. It would not have been so in the old days of Rome. The two-car family is estab lished. One automobile is not enough for any family that can afford two. Mny use and need three. Home hnve six. Unlike horses, ears don't eat, when not in use. Now comes the two-radio fam ily. To have only one radio set in your home is like having only one book in your library. Everything comes by air. Young people have their dance music and cheerful songs while older people listen to music more serious, sol emn speeches or sermons. A man, well to do, needs three rndio sets, two for the family, one for servants. No well regulated servants' hall should be without its first-class radio equipment.

At Wandlitz In Germany the Sahmer lake sinking reveals a set tlement of dwellings built on piles, a thousand years old. Migrating Wends built huts out on the lake, a thousand years ago, for safety. Physical conditions have chang ed since then, locomotives, auto mobiles and flying machines re place horses and oxen, fifty-story npartmcut houses are built, no more huts above the lake. A L Humnri intelligence and charac ter, unfortunately, have not kept pace with physical improvements. In material things, the human rnce has gone forward marvelously.
