It will be interest in); to see how this broadside over the air will affect contributions to the Hed Cross, and what the con gressional reaction to it will be. As was pointed out, President Hoover's plan has the advan tage of sustaining the well established. American tradition of voluntary relief in times of national disaster; it prevents excell ing the national budget, and incurring a deficit; it places the financial burden of relief upon those best able and therefore most willing to bear it; aiul it eliminates increasing the finan fial obligation, by interest charges, which the congressional plan would involve. IX SHORT, the President's policy is the right policy, the states- manlike policy, and the olicy of Congress isn't, lint in tli'J midst of a business depression with the American people us a whole short of cash mid fearful of the future, the congressional plan represents the "easiest way" and the administration plan the way that is most difficult. The administration's plan is further handicapped by the fact that, while the present economic and agricultural conditions in certain sections represent a genuine disaster, there is nothing spectaicular about it, no outstanding catastrophe to dramiitijic it in the public mind, and therefore no overwhelming public sen timent to support the lied Cross appeal. In other words, it is an old story, only another phase of the never-ending struggle between wise statesmanship and practical polities. IT WAS a shrewd move by President Hoover when he invited ex-fiovernor Smith to assist in the Ki'd Cross drive, and it is greatly to (he latter gentleman's credit that he accepted, thus demons! rating his willingness to abandon publics anil join with the man who defeated him, in an effort to relieve human .suffer ing and promote, the public welfare. Whether the President or Congress will win, now rests with the American people. The citizen wdio, without further solicitation, contributes to the Red Cross fund, will not only have the satisfaction of doing his bit. for the relief of human suffering; but also the satisfac tion of upholding the President of the I'nitcd Stales in a policy that is essentially right, as opposed to one that ISN'T. OREGON PRODUCES A REAL BOOK X Til CAN' riKommend to everyone in Southern Oregon, par ticularly the old timers, a book by Anne Shannon .Mon-j roe of Portland, entitled "Fcelin' Fine." j "Feelin' Fine" is a character sketch of l'!ill Hanley, known to everyone in Oregon, and a picturcsiue figure throughout the nation; told, so to speak, in Mill's own words. After reading it one's admiration is almost equally divided between the subject of the book and the authoress. For "Feel in' Fine" is tin exceptionally fine bit of work, a biography that, we believe deserves a pennniicnt place in our western literature SUCH a book could so easily have been spoiled by the intru sion of flic writer iiccsiiniil nliKcrval ions anil cY.n:il'ti stale infills thrown in here and there; jective viewpoint, and not allow character to speak for himself. As a result, the reader is at is liill Hanley to the life, not career, the salient features of his hut also providing a genuine epic, neer rural life, in Southern and 1VTOT only the substance but the spirit, of that life is faithfully ' realized, and the early chapters are particularly interest ing, to anyone living in .laeksou County, as it takes the reader with liill Hanley, the boy, from the old homestead near Jackson ville, to Mike llanley's place on lig Butte, up to Fish hake, back toward the Siskiynus, over the (ireen Spuring mountain road to Kastcrn Oregon, with Crater Lake, (lie Klamath River, Captain Jack, Chief Kgan, Fort Klamath, Jit.

What the authoress terms "life comprehension," that .spirit ual serenity and native wisdom settler, who refused to secure hut insisted upon learning from impressively and beaut ifully brought out. ' WK KNOW nothing about the l''soeM titnl i'iii-i' lew Hilt romantically inclined, as he reviews those early days, but we believe it is safe to say that any statements not supported by the fads, ARK supported by tradition. And such a book should contain those early traditions. Yes, "Feelin' Fine'' is a most interesting and worth while contribu tion to the literature of this state, it tlcinoust rates that in Hill Hanley Oregon has produced an ter, and in Miss (or is it Mrs.?)

Willintu lilaily ill rale vt ceive compensation from mak ers or sellers of that imple ment for removing tonsils by electricity? True, the remarkable reduction In the diphtheria rate among chil dren in certain places where toxin-antitoxin Immunization has heen thoroughly carried on, may bo Just coincidence. But 1 prefer not to place much credence In the idle, "claim" ot tho unidentified doctor that nine out of ten diph theria cases ho has seen In six months were In children who had been immunized hy the TAT un less the doctor in question is pre pared to confess that ho has failed to report his diphtheria cases to the health department as required by the law. Indeed, I suspect tho doctor In question is not a legally qualified physician, but some kind of illicit fad healer. 1 regret to say that no maker or seller of an implement, ma chine. padKW, Instrument, remedy or outfit has as yet offered or Kiven or paid or presented me so much as the price of a new pipe or n jar o' tobacco, for my serv ices . in popularizing the electro mtrgtcal removal of tonsils. 1 ciinress that one hig manufacturer uf machines used in cleelrosurg- cry did invite me to be his guest at a kind of "clinic" he was stag- tug,-ami 1 dropped .the invitation in the waste hasket unanswered.

Stuttering What causes stuttering? Is there any cure? (S. M.) , , ' Answer Send stamped envelope bearing your address and mention your trouble.

Hooks, Magazines, Newspapers How much danger Is there of infection when a person reading a paper or book sneezes or coughs upon the reading material, and then someone else takes tho paper or book to read? (Disturbed.) Answer Absolutely none. If there were such danger public wel fare would demand the immedi ate closing of all public libraries. There is no reason to imagine that any disease Is ever spreud hy the common use of .hooks, magazines, newspapers, tickets, paper or metal money, or other such mediums. It is unfortunate that the persons in charge of li braries sometimes made a to-do about "fumigating" or "disinfect ing" the books, or make silly rules restricting tho borrowing of books by people who happen to havo in fectious disease. Vagotonia. Wy am I always bothered with an excess of saliva? (Miss U. M.)

Ask your doctor what vagotonia means and j whether he can do anything for it. parents TAUI.KS TrilNXOI) (ly Alice Judson Peule) Punishment fy commonly con sidered us tho special privilege, of parents. Many of us uro unawaro of how frequently the tables nre turned, and thb children do the punishing. Sometimes they do it In open revenge, but more often they are entirely unconscious of their mot ives. Much of the soldiering over such routine procedures as wnsh lng and dressing, putting away of toys and clothes, is caused by tho child's desiro "to get even" with his parents for their excessive de mands, A boy who had just been for bidden to go out to play knocked over his mother's favorite vaso In passing. Perhaps it was an acci dent. Perhaps not. Certainly it would have been only human, if in his rage at what seemed to him an unreasonable frustration, ho had impetuously availed him-" self of tho handiest means of pun ishing tho person rcsponbilo for his disappointment. A little girl, whose very net and word was tho subject of family discussion, approval or reproof, avenged herself in another way. She had shown such special apti tude fur dancing that she was given lessons and there was much talk of hei: remarkable progress. Apparently, however, sho no sooner became aware of (ho sat isfaction, which she was causing her elders, than she found all sorts of excuses for nut going to her lessons. Her teacher finally elicited from her the explanation, "1 don't want to learn to dance any mure, just becausu my mother thinks it s so grand." It is sometimes wholesome to consider whether our own behav ior has not merited such reprisals and to mend our own ways be fore wo try to correct those of tho child. At 07. Mrs. Marcilla.
