Ye Smudge Pot
(By Arthur Perry)
. The .sparrows yip ut dawn as it
their little throats would burnt,
and people uwakened by their
screeching, wish they would.
i Room will Hoon be made In state
prisons for two boyH, 16 years old,
who flew bocaune they were denied
use of autos by their benefactors.
Wise men will sermonize, moralize
and elucidate upon the tragedy,
without mentioning that its cause
was too much service station, and
too little woodshed. The crimes,
dellheratlvely bloodthirsty, tend to
dispel the modern hooey so fondly
cuddled by parents, that the boy
and girl of today is different from
the boy and girl of the 00's, the
KO'h, and the 70's. Human nature
has not changed. The boy is still
a boy, and the girl is still a girl,
and like their counterparts of
3900, 2800, 1880 and 1870, are able
to resist everything but tempta
tion. 1930 whlppersnappers, of
both sexes, are allowed to run hog
wild, armored with nott.lng but
the wishes of their Papa and
Mama, a nose-width mustache, and
a liberal daubing of rouge. This
is slim protection for juveniles
who would not know what a cur
few was If they heard It, and pay
no attention to It If they did.
We have been requested to say
something in behalf of Harry L.
Corbett, a gubernatorial aspirant
hailing from Portland, and a good
man for all of that. We urgently
ask that nobody Judge Mr. Corbett
by his plcturo In the newspapers.
It Is the poorest piece of engraving
ever turned out by an engraving
concern, any place, and why the
Corbett uldes did not roject the
work and make them produce
another, Is the leading mystery of
the campaign. However, It uppears
that Mr. Corbett would win the
heat and race, In splto of the bum
workmanship. As a mat tor of fact,
Mr. Corbett Is as manly a beauty
as any of his opponents, and the
aforementioned picture is a base
slander. He possesses the Har
vard dignity of Edward Carleton,
the rollicking cheerfulness of C.
Wig Ash pole, the wholesouled en
thusiasm of J. Court Hall for any
thing he tackles, and the effi
ciency, without oratory, of a Copco
Hergeant. .
WHY KMTOUH JO MAD
(Webster, lit., Freeman)
The Daily Freeman wlshos
to correct an error in yester
day's Ihsuo pertaining to the
fifth ward P.-T. A. meeting.
The title of one of the two
sungs sung by Mrs. K. W.
(larth and Dave Thomson
should hnvo read "Just
n-Woarln for You," by Carrie
Jacobs Bond, not "Just
a-Kearln' for You."
The llawley-Hmoot . tariff bill,
one may read, will be u great bene
fit to the masses. Bugur, wool,
beef, and shoes are removed Crom
the free list and a duty affixed.
All four nro household and life
necessities and will only Increase
the cost of living from 7 to 21
percent, according to the c ports.
This tarirr catches tho average
ritleen In the pocketbnok, but the
Kepublican party will explain It
satisfactorily, us they generally do.
The tariff Is removed from garlic,
endrogcTi, (whatever that is) and
imported automobiles, so every
thing Is balanced in the long run,

THE PLANNING COMMISSION "KNOWS"
TIIE endorsement of tho Washington School site for the new
court house, by the City Planning commission, whs to be
expected.
The plain truth is that from the standpoint of any planning
commission, worthy of the name, no other selection could be
made.
A plan for any modern city necessitates a civic center. The
city park, with the public library, postoffice and(Jderal build
ing, establishes Medford 'h civic center.
O For the City rimming commission io favor 'Qablishing such
a permynt improvement as a court house, away from such a
civic center, would place it in the position of destroying the
very program of building reconstruction upon which it baa
spent so much time and effort to
T is no exaggeration to siiy tlmt the construction of tho court
linntQoii the Washington school site is the keystone nrch of
the entire pimming commission scheme. Abandon that site anil
the entire structure falls.
Therefore, we were not surprised at the unanimous and un
equivocal endorsement of the Washington School site, hy the
planning commission. We could understand approval of a Cen
tral avenue site '1y property owners, although as a matter of
fact, in spite of a general impresflon to the contrary, court houses
do not draw trade. Hut for a planning commission to support
such action wfluld be unthinkable.
NJKVERTirELIvS.S, under the circumstances, the commission
deserves to he commended for its action, even though such
action whs in the line of its inescapable duty. For as selections
of court house sites always arouse considerable bitterness and
local feeling, such a decision 'required courage and willingness
to shoulder the responsibilities that the creation of such a com
mission imposes.
Uy this action the commission demonstrates that, it takes its
obligations seriously, that in any controversy it can be depended
upon to do whatever it regards as HE ST FOR TITK KNTIUK
CITY, regardless of the opposition in certain quarters such a
decision may necessarily arouse.
TRYING TO RUIN LINDBERGH
lANSAS is not only the driest state in the country, it is, po
litically, the most bizarre.
Hon. W. Y. Morgan, editor of the Hutchison (Kansas) News,
recently went to New York and sent letters back to bis paper.
A true Kansan, he couldn't resist talking and writing politics.
After paying his respects to tho iniquities of night clubs and
speakeasies, "W. Y." proceeded to advocate a national clean
up campaign, under the leadership of Charles A. Lindbergh for
President the "White Knight of the Air." ,
Isn't that just like a Kansas editor, political J)on Quixotes,
all of them? Such a scheme would not only ruin 1indy, but
make a joke of any party that would seriously advocate it.
TO small clement in Lindy's tremendous popularity is the per-
' sistency with whieh bp lias stuck to his job, bis absolute
refusal to capitalize to his wn advancement or selfish benefit,
the fame which his Paris flight gave him.
Limly is an aviator, probably the greatest the world has
ever known. He loves aviation, he knows aviation, the develop
ment of aviation is his very life and soul.
Oneo put a po'ilieal bee buzzing in his leather helmet and
Lindy is through I And once put the hero of American youth at
tho head of a political party, and that party is through !
IMAGINE Lindy flying about the country for votes, side-slip-
ping Prohibition ; doing an outside loop in the vicinity of mili
tant Protestantism; dropping his opinions on bobbed hair, agra
rian reform, lower taxes, sex appeal and the latest planet.
And imagine the popular reaction to any political party re
sponsible for doing this for pulling Lindbergh from the heroic
role, ho won so honestly and occupies sA well; and trying to
capitalize that popularity for the benefit of the professional
politicians and office seekers!
Fortunately, Lindy is not from Kansas, and can be depended
upon to smash this latest off-shoot of the corn-belt Uplift. Hut
if he didn't have on his shoulders the lcvelest head America
has ever produced, what a fine mess Honorable Morgan would
start and what a tragic farce would be enacted!

THE PSYCOLOGY OF REST
Rest Ib a Remedy Universally Used Though Seldom Credited With the
Cures It Effects
No mutter whether the trouble
bo tuberculosis of lung or Joint,
acute appendicitis, a broken leg,
writers' cramp, luryngltls, duodenal
ulcer, valvular
heart disease or
simple coryza
rest Is the first
essential for cure.
and one resorts
to rest by com
Iiulsloii.O by In
stinct, by chance
or by advlco of
physician. Nobody
ever thinks of
publishing a testimonial to the
remedial value of rest; there Is no
Incentive lor either the healed or
the healer to do so.
If your cat or dog licks his
wounds while they are healing you
are duly Impressed with the
promptness of healing under such
treatment; you Ignore the factor of
rest, just as the cat or dog does.
Hut the cat or dog Is more adept
In the healing of wounds with rest
than you are, even If you use the
remedy, for the animal knows in
stinctively how to relax, and your
instincts are more or less modified
by education and custom.
You've observed in your own ex
perience, 1 hope, how uromutlv
beneficial thorough relaxation Is
when you have a sharp coryza.
When the irritation, the oozing, the
sneezing, the throat clearing, the
(Xin.staiit Impulse to swallow, the
annoying desire to cough, und all
the moddenlng discomfort of the
attack is at peak level, what to do?
(Jet mnd, gut drunk, get tho as
pirin? Maybe that's your way, but
It Is not mine. I just give up and
crawl Into the little old beddy and
snuggle under the eidortown ami
try 1 merely try to get the dia
phragm working smoothly and
(Itiletly, iu Imitation of the breath
ing of a person asleep or under
ether. It Is a habit worth practic
ing always before one drops afi
to sleep; It equalizbes the circula
tion, tends to keep down the blood
pressure, warm up the feet and
help one sleep. But if one happens
to have such a coryza, all the an
noying Bymptoms subside when
complete relaxation comes; you
might say the relaxation conies as
a consequence of the relief of tho
ailment; I believe the relief of the
ailment Is duo to the relaxation. I
mention coryza because It Is so fa
miliar; tho samo beneficial result
Is attainable in almost any acute
distressing ailment you may hap
pen to have.
Kvery doctor knows this. The
one thing about which all doctors
agree Is that a person coming down
with acute what have you should
go to bed, If only for a few hours.
Uoctors are not so dumb as I some
times make them look. They know
tho healing power of relaxation,
anil they know that the only wny
to make the average dub relax is to
coax or order him into bed. When
he dozes or sleeps he Is bound to
relax; If he sits up or keeps ubout
he can't relax, even It' he tries;
his amateurish efforts are defeated
by his own Ineptitude.
Hero 1 must break In on the con
tinuity to tell of an extraordinary
incident. While writing the fore
going paragraph 1 suddenly recall
ed a description of a relaxation
stunt published by some noted the
atrical mnn years ago. I remember
at the time 1 considered it rather
goofy, but just tho same something
made me dtp tho Item anil sure

head of relaxation, I find the Item.

Invito readers who are iuletested
to listen in with mo to Mr. Thomas'

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Canker Sores In the Spring
Sumo peoplo complain or spring
fever. My annual grouch this time
o' year is from a crop of canker
sores. (P. U M.)
Answer, 1 used to have tho
darned things, too. Tho best rem
edy I ran suggest is daily touching
of each ranker spot with tincture
of loilln nnd glycerin, half and half,
on a wisp of cotton wrapped on
tho end of a toothpick. Then a
dozen times dally, pftitli'iiltirly be
fore anil after food, freely use
warm solution of boric acid as a
moulh wnsh. Of course, no brush
ing of teeth. Tenspoonftil of boric
acid to pint of boiled water makes
good mouth wash.
8mall Pupils and Dilated Eyes
IMease explain why my pupils are
so very small and then very large
by turns.' How do actresses make
their pupils stay large? (Miss S.
It.)
Ans. Normally the pupils con
tract in light and dilate a)r expand
when tn shadow or the dark. Also
they should contract when you look
at something close by and dilute
when you louk at something at a
distance. In making up actresses
give the Illusion of large eyes by
painting the eyebrows, shading the
lids and beading or darkening even
the lashes. They never use drugs
in the eyes to dilute the pupils.
Urates Precipitated
When the urine becomes cloudy
after standing an hour or two is
that a sign of kidney trouble? (S.
O. L)
Ans. No; that is the normal re
sult of preciptation of urates by
cold.
Rice Powder Inflames Eyes
My eyes blur after reading and
feel Irritated and look red.. Mother
says you once warnetl girls about
using rite power because It might
cause eye Inflammation. 1 use rice
powder constantly. Do you think It
can account for my trouble?' (L.
J. A.)
Ans. It may. The starch grain
of rice are sharp and Irritating, and
when the powder is carelessly dust
ed on with a puff some of the
grulns may lodge In the lining of
the lids. They can be removed
only by repeated washing or irriga
tion with agreeably warm normal
salt solution. Heaping teaspoonful
of salt in the pint of boiled water.
