Wlien they do say miytliiiijr, our speeinl enn esiioml enl writes they put tlieir foot in it; when they try to mnke a point, the Hill lines shatter it with 11 snappy eounterpoint. "Do you mean to intlmnte, Mr. Hiultl, that the S. P. does not, or can not, ndequately handle the present traffic?" "Well, I huve had considerable difficulty in Betting them to . adequately handle my private car." . Much liiusrhK-r in which the S.

"Yes, hut thn WcKter'n Pacific and the (Heat Northorn will match the running timo of the Southern Pacific between San Frflncliico find Portland."

For naturally the dear old S.

BOXING ISN'T THRRK was one feature of (lie vw.vni Ashland-Medford fool ball ganu- whicli siU'priscd us ,yery much, and has not re ceived the notice we think it deserved. ' ' ;. That was the spectacle of a rather diminutive Medford player iiiiiustriously puninieling an Ashland player in midficld, while fhe two teams were scrambling for the ball forty yards away. . ' . , Just what liic local player's grievance was we don't know, but that lie believed lie had oim was evidenced by lhi frank nild businesslike milliner in which he attempted to regis.lcr his righteous indignation. ' '. Xq one was hurt in the melee, bill .Medlord was penalized half the distance to its goal, which was entirely proper,' and the penalty led to a touchdown 'if we remember rightly, whicii whs also as it should he. ' , TI1K surprising I'oatiire was not that the local player appar ently knew so little about the rules, but (hat be knew so lillle'abont playing football. , ... . There was a lime when slugging was pretty general in font ball, but that time has long since passed, not so much because it isn't "nice," iik because il ISN'T football. - - ' ' The prime essential in football success today is team play, perfect co-ordination, eleven individuals working as one, a per fect machine clicking toward a common end. The player so absorbed in his own reactions, thai he is only interested in cracking some opponent on the jaw, is not only phiyinn against the rules, he is playing against the interests of his own team. ,' That is why the lirst thing a young man with 1'oothnll aspira tions must learn is self control, subordination of his personal interests o the interests of the team. Not on a sentimental basis at all, but on the entirely practical basis of doing every thing to win the game. ' -' Tt IK members of the .Medford football sijuiul have been told this of course. Hut that all of them haven't learned it was shown by the stnm-whal comical incident above mentioned. .' And that brings us back to the point made following the Ashland victory. Metlford has the spirit and the raw material, ltut it lacks what only time can give, trainiu'r, discipline,-r- what niighl be termed "football brains." - Willi two of he three essentials present, the t!(ird, we are sure, will he quickly supplied.

This Is frank and true. The bulletin-" writer observes that ln; dlptheria, nearlct fever and other communicable diseases of clillilhood (k Ik anomaloun to find a public health authority acknowl- n,l..ln.f .lls.ltw.rli n r.). i l.Dl nrill r.r. ., uiJtyJ. in lul.crcullH. cortuln j puerperal cases, nnd tile venerea! nlmlI.Ht.-ativP nica.sui.es .may ,,,, I applied with auccess. To a larpe extent, however, further progro.su dependM, according to the New York City heiJlh authorities, on j tho practice of personal hygiene ; by tiif individual, and on hi util-j Izatlon of well established prlnei pies of preventive medicine nnd public health. If this can be bi ought about, the New. York health authorities think, it should result in the saving of perhaps, 20 per cent of the 75,000 lives now lost in Xew York City annually. I have been trying to say- the same thing for many years.' In my artless way. It happens that I du no: consider the present regime of public . health administrators qualified to assume the job of tfi.ehlng Individual or personal hygiene. They should confine their ;i divides to sanitary work there is plenty of that to' keep 'cm busy for life, J'ublic health admlnlstr.i lors., as ft rule, have, no training or oxpVrionee or skill it) engage in Individual hygiene or personal her.Kh practice, and no Justifica tion for attempting to furninh med ical treatment .to ailing persons. Tlieir, excursions Into these fields are generally attended with a good deal of malpractice. which is char itably concealed by tho reputable physicians of the community where the, health department perpetrates it little schemes In this direction. 1 i-Tho New York Bulletin writer concludes his instructive article thus: ; "t Is a pity that so many peo-j plo are constt.ntly awaiting some I startling, brilliant. medical' is-1 covery, some olixer of Hf when Ul ' conBliliM'ulile. Hpali are so close Itrlefly, these are; "I'renatal care to Insure the birth of healthy children and ' t sateguard maternal lives. . "i!rcast feuding of babies.

"Avoidance of self-medication and uuackery.' The first two, plus practical training in infant feeding, nnd In fant care, should be taught in common school, as n compulsory j course for every boy end girl. As for the "scrupulous clcanli nesj.," that applies only In the seiue of aseptic conscience, not in the popular sense of esthetic clean liness. v i consider the last recommenda tion the most essential of all. ltut as long as self -medication nnd quackery arc encouraged by our government, as n part of big busi ness. It will require a very strong character indeed to avoid lndulk -ing tn tt. It is only fair to say, though, that New York t'lty is curbing fluackery of all kind, per haps moro effectively than i.ny other city in the country.

Vr'carj 1,000,000 shares of one of the Stand ard Oil stocks at $50 a share or better. It is said he sot only 1200 shares instead of 1,000,000.- M ' Tho writer happened to sea John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Wednesday morning, coming-on the train from Lnkewood, N. J., where he had been to see his father. Mr. Rocke feller didn't say anything about buyitiK 1.000,000 shares of Stand ard Oil stocks. In fact, he didn t seem interested in the stock mar ket nt all. He said: "1 took an m liele of yours out to read to niv fathor." . ; - ..', , The head of one of the biggest. American Industries complained re cently of .bankers. Said ho: "The greatest banker is he that can run the fastest when trouble comes." . However, it should be remem bered that bankers have not es caped in the crashing of stock values. The biggest bank, stocks huva dropped trom $200 to S 1000 a share since the dropping began. They will come back and go higher, undoubtedly, but it is pain ful even to lose paper profits. Not lone: ago Wall Street's trou bio was foolish over confidence. Today tho troublo Is foolish fear, Thoso that did not know why prices went up, don't know, now, why they go down. They Can go down for a very simple reason, EVERYBODY TRY IXO TO SELL AT ONCE. M Twenty-five million automobiles are running in America. If every owner tried to sell his automobile at. tlio same time, you could buy tine cats for S10 apiece, and less. Those thnt gambled and have got to sell MVST sell. That's all of thnt. - Those, that have bought good se curlllcs and sell them now from foolish fear, will regret it. .Many stocks, selling far below their Intrinsic Values, will lie any where from $10 to $100 n share higher when this fear passes.
