OBSERVE THE FIRE
TTIERE is a city ordiwtiiee which ' pompelH nil motorists to
drive tn the' nearest arkitiff space when the fire siren
blows;' ' 1
But jwlKiiil? by the situation yesterday when the siren blew,
during the busiest shopping hour, this ordinance is not observed.
The fire boys hnd to pick their way through n tangle of cars
on Main Street, and as a result their arrival at the scene of the
fire, was considerably delayed.
In this particular instance, no serious harm resulted, as the
fire was only a fox-tail blaze in Siskiyou Heights. Hut no one
can tell when a serious fire will break out, and streets crowded
with cars, will result in a major disaster that might otherwise
be avoided.
Not only is prompt action, the first essential, in restricting
fire losses, but crowded streets at the time of a fire, may well
result in serious accidents to innocent people.
Observance of 1,1 lie law and a spirit of cooperation on the
part of the motorists of this city, will quickly remedy this
situation. A fire alarm is a. warning of danger. At such a
time it is a small thing to ask that all motorists drive to the
curb, until the fire department has passed.
: Such action takes but. a few minutes. But those few min
utes may Well mean at any time, the difference between, saving
lives Bnd property, and the needless sacrifice of both.
WHY NOT TELL
llIANY" times during the past few months,' certain events
have called to mind Lincoln's well known suying about
fooling the people of this country.
.As everyone knows, he suid you could fool "all the people
some of the time, and some of .the people all the time,' but not
oil the people all the time." '. ' ) ,
We have always 'believed he was right. But if he was right,
then certain newspapers must he wrong, for they act. steatlily
on the assumption, you cannot only fool all the people all the
time, but if you print a falsehood frequently enough, they will
nil believe it,- - - '-' : '

SINCR the passage of' the tariff bill, ot leost a dozen Demo
cratic newspapers which come to this desk, have declared
not once but several times, that this iniquitous measure', has
lowered the tariff on everything the farmer must sell and aised
it on everything he must buy.
Assuming these Democratic editors have rend the tariff bill,
then there is only one short but ugly word for this statement.
Doesn't the farmer raise beans f . Well, the tariff on beans
has been raised from less than 2 cents to 3 cents. Doesn't he
raise beef! Well beef goes from 3 to G cents. Doesn't he pro
duce milk! milk goes from Vi cents to U'i. So on down the
line fropi wheat, corn, hay,- eggs, hides, oats,, pork, poultry,
fruit, peanuts, crcamj etc., cto,, cte.
' What docs he buy f An automobile certainly. The tariff
on automobiles has been reduced from 25 per cent to 10 per
cent, -i So. with furniture and other commodities, although wc
admit, we can find only a few commodities in common rural con
sumption on which the tariff has been materially reduced.
V , ,.,-;v- V'" '' r" .V''' v. .'" r
BUT that isn't ' the point. The point is that the partisan
. Democratic press is making a definite charge against this
Hawley-Smooth measure, yhieh isn' true, and which the editors
must .know- to, 'hp untrue, if they know anything about the
measure at H. ' ,,, " (, '.
What is the' answer? That ull these Democratic editors
are natural born ' liars t . Some of them are no doubt, just as
are some Republican editors. But that is probably far from
the true explanation.
The true explanation undoubtedly lies in that final phrase,
the editors in question' know nothing whatever about the
tariff bill. They haven't reud it. They don't intend to read it.
Ju thojr political filing cuso they have that well worn phono
graph record on tho tariff which declares all Republican tariff
measures aro iniquitous, "alwoys, lower the price of what the
farmer bus to sell and raise the price of what he has to buy."
So' they bring it out, brush
and as far as the editorial
it a day. " .' ''.'. . ' ,
THIS isu't'a brief for the Hawley-Smooth bill, we don't
tltitilr niuih nf it niiruplveH Hut. wp rln liolieve it. is entitled
to a square leal, and should bo as readily protected from mis
representation, as any other bit of legislation.
The new tariff does not raise
must tony and lower them on everything he must sell. It raises
the rates on everything he must
things he must buy.
Not that that is going to do
present at least. But that is only an added reason for not mis
representing it. Why resort to falsehoods when the truth will
serve as wellt
And another thing the country needs is a good 5-eent shine.

. Disregarding an Immediate mor
tality rate of from 2 to 10 per cent,
the.not uncommon f occurrence ot
secondary gnstrojejunnl ulceration
(that means another ulcer forming
at the place where the new Joint
or connection is made), the nlmost
inevitable adhesions around the
site of operation, and the less
common kinking and obstruction
of tho Intestine, and tho chance of
subsequent hemorrhage, perfora
tion and malignant operation for
peptic ulcer is n great success.
Oastro-enterostomy Is tho name
of the operation which short-circuits
the ulcer area. Tt means lit
erally making an opening from tho
stomach Into the Intestine below
the damaged -plnce. More radical
procedures have been adopted by
surgeons In recent years. A com
mon ono Is pyloroplasty, sort of a
reconstruction of the pylorus or
outlet of the stomach; othor rad
ical methods are pylorectomy and
excision (cutting out more or less
of the lower part of the stomach
and the ulcer area of Intestine),
and most radical of all, subtotal
gastrectomy, which means cutting
out considerable portions of the
stomach.

Sunlight mid Tiilk'rculosls.
Ono of your correspondents ask
ed how to get sunlight, with tbc.
Did you know that Dr. and
! most other good cheat men are
not prescribing sun bat ha for per
sons with pulmonary tbc? (Such
patients Bhould beware of the old
i fashioned doctors who prescribe
aunlisht for pulmonary cases. That
mistakB was made on me at firct
and 1 had to suffer for it. L. R.
Answer. 'It may be that your
doctor and others are not prescrib
ing it, and they are certainly gooA
men, yet other doctors as good do
prescribe it and supervise Us ap

Vaccination Not Nice But
Neccmiry.
Our community recently had
smallpox outbreak. A few of us
refused to be stampeded into the
orgy of vaccination ... C. J. J.
Answer. I think that Is fool Inn
of you. However, I think the pub
lic heulth is well guarded if the
health authorities content them
selves with arrest or Isolation
("quarantine") of a persons who
do not believe in vaccination.
Food With Starch In.
Kindly let me know what foods
have starch In them. R. 1
Answer. Well, I'll promise to
name a long list of them if you'll
first tell me why you want to
know. I'll give you no such In
formation unless I believe it will
be of benefit to 'you.
Two Years Treatment.
How long does it take to treat
syphilis bo that it can be checked?
And Just how much ffood Is treat
ment supposed to do? Is It pos
sible to check It enough if it is
treated enough? J. C.
Answer. My Impression Is that
if the patient remains under treat
ment for two years the chance of
arresting the disease Is excellent.
As a rule treatment Is not kept
up constantly, but by courses, with
Intervals of rest. The wise pati
ent, even at the end of that time,
will report to the physician once
a year for the rest of his lire and
perhaps take a brief course of
treatment if the doctor advises It.

SWIMMING
By Mary Graham Bonner
The Little Black Clock had turn
ed the time way, way back.
He had taken John and Peggy
to a lake where
some children
were playing.
'They paddled
and waded In the
water and they
splashed each
other and had a
splendid time.
Sometimes they
ducked each
other but none
seemed to- care
about Bwimniingi
"There isn't one.
who Is swimming, John, re
marked. He had been able to swim a
tew strokes the summer beforo
and tills summer he was able tl
swim the length of a good slzeil
pier.
Peggy, could swim a few strokes, ,
too, and she hoped to be able' to"
swim a great deal more before the
summer was over.
They could not understand why
these children didn't try to swim,
and why the older ones didn't
spend all their time in swimming.
Suddenly one of them got out
beyond his depth, but he was cool
headed and he did not scream. He
began to move his arms around
and kick with his feet, and he
managed to keep above the water
and get back to the place where
he could stand.
But he had discovered some
thing. He had discovered that by
moving his arms and kicking he
could keep above the water, und
he began to show some of the oth
ers what he had been doing.
They tried it, too, and soon many
of them were doing the same.
"1 wish I could show them a
few good strokes," said John.
"No," said the Little Black Clock.
"It wouldn't be kind to do that.
I've turned the time so far back
that this is the first time any
one has tried to swim at all, and
it wouldn't be fuir to take away
from the wonder of their discov
ery by showing them how well you
can do It now.
"I-ter you must stop and show
me how well you can swim, and
so must Peggy."
John thought they were very,
clever to do as well as they were
doing without any help nt all.
Tomorrow "The Fog."
energetic prohibition administrator
for New York, proposes to cuih
liquor at its source, attacking night
clubs and speakeasies.
To dry up the latter, according
to New York policemen that know,
would be as hard as mopping up
the- Atlantic.
