ELEMENT NO 87 BOWS TO SCIENCE (Hdllne Oregonian) Whatever be came of Element No. 33, known to the man-tn-the-atreet, aa Skidd oo I It la Just possible, that your oorr., aa the Paw of a dangerous boy with a dangerous weapon opines, In mild wrath, has no legal right to air the trials, tribulations, and tragedy that befall a quirt nlmrod loose with a high-powered rifle, Intent on killing something. It Is however, stoutly maintained, that a 13 year old kid. haa no business whatsoever with a .46 calibre weapon, even if it does get him out In the open where he can look Nature square In the eye. Any number of nice-looking young men are now restraining from the open apaoea and to all Intents and purposes, hermlcally sealed, because they got too frisky In the open with various kinds of guns. They should not be allowed to pack firearms to and from school, so they can vary the monotony of that Jaunt by ahoot ing woodpeckers and squirrels. Arm ed kids have been known to wing the boy down the road for an Apache, of course, never dreaming he would hit him. The main argument Is this: Boys who don't pack guns, don't have to answer all ths questions the cor oner asks: "Henry Tedroush spent Friday In the city. He fought with ths Blet In ttie' Argonue" (Paisley Items) Why bring that up? Many of the Older Olrla are on the warpatn', for 67 different reasons, and no reason at all. Quite a few townsmen picked pheasant and quail out of their teeth Thurs. eve. TIMELY ADVICE Don't be funny with a gun. I never aaw a rifle yet that had a sense of humor. Don't fall to wear a red hat and a big patch of red on your back. It won't annoy you In these locations, as you won't see It, but the other fellow will. Don't carry a rlfie over the shoulder pointing at ths man behind you. It will make him peevish. Don't wait motionless while an other hunter comes up to you. Step behind a tree and sigml him, If you aren't sure he ha seen you, Dont try practical Jokes to fool the other man. He may be a belter ahot than you think. If you will follow your common sense well, at least your estate) will have a good case when the defense put In contributory negligence. Be sides, being careful Is the on thing anyone can be without much work. (Sat. Eve. Post). Overdoing the Depression Business "TJRING the past week the number of interviews with the fact that the present depression is not half as bad as the street comer calamity howler Now we are pleased to note that 'William Allen White, famous editor of the Emporia (Kansas) Gazette has made a similar discovery. To hear the corn belt politicians one would conclude that Kansas would never survive the winter, and the entire Middlewest would be plastered with soup kitchens and bread lines. But listen to Editor White, variably reports facts precisely in literature but a hard boiled A MID the wreck of economic the Middle West, and particularly Kansas, stands out as a shining oasis. Of course we have no boom here. Of course we have loBt the boom prices But even with low prices of crops, even with men out of work, no one is going to starve in the Missouri Valley. Kansas, for instance, will come through WHEN one considers the low state of the East, with the rich "broke" and scared, with the poor frightened and starving, with the middle class man .on the brink of financial ruin, with a real estate shrinkage which itself would make a major catastrophe, with stocks gone and incomes shattered, when in comparison with all that we consider the Middle West, Kansas, Emporia, and ' our decent condition, we have many blessings to be thankful for. prices for his wheat and is implements and his taxes, but have a little money to spend ; his own food and is living his owp life in his own way. THE merchant is not putting any cloth signs over his door. He will do business at the old stand all winter and make a little money j not much but enough , for Santa Claus at Christmas. We are not buying radios in carload lots but we are buying a few. We are grabbing off an icebox now and then, and a motorcar betimes. the stock market was duncing isn't what it was when the stock that it wrecked on the Atlantic e TIMES are not what they were A hetipr titan thev were in they will not grow wore. We have our unemployed and some of them are in a sad way but they are not many and we will take care of them. In the black' area of flood, havoc, and destruction, the Middle West and Kansas stand supremely and serenely green and golden. , . .' A Great Chief Justice LIBERAL elements in the United States have awakened to the faot that when their cause is just they have a champion in Charles Evans Hughes, chief justice of the supreme court. The testy magazine, Outlook, admits this,, with some surprise, in its leading article in the current issue. Mr. Hughes was long tarred, through no fault of his own, with the capitalistic and reactionary brush. In, his private practice, being a brilliant' lawyer, he naturally was drawn to the big-money cases. Then, in 1916, when he ran for the presidency against Wilson, democratic propaganda tied him up with Wall street. The "millionaire special" of that campaign, carrying wives of eastern millonaires out to convert the ignor unt women of the west, was almost fatal to his reputation. It became an established faot in the public mind that Mr. Hughes was the voiee of big business and when in February, 1930, Mr. Hoover submitted to the senate the name of Mr. Hughes as the successor to Chief Justice Taft, an uproar rose from the liberals. Borah, Norris 26 in all voted against con firmation. "' ""PHAT Mr. Hughes is neither a conservative -nor a liberal, but apparently an almost perfect judge, willing to con sider every individual case on doing, is now the astonishing finding of the misled people and the misled liberals. ' Sutherland, Butler, MoReynolds and Van Devanter are a conservative bloc of four on the supreme bench, Holmes, Brqndeis and Stone are a liberal bloo of three opposing them. Consequently the balance is led by Chief Justice Hughes and Justice Roberts, who repeatedly have demonstrated their disin terestedness, and their willingness to interpret law in the light of modern problems. Chief Justice Hughes decided for labor mi Injunction proceedings under the railway labor act of 1926 ; he wrote a dissenting opiuion when Justice Roberts sided with the conservatives in refusing oitizenship to Professor Macintosh of Tale; he CBst the deciding vote against the Minnesota "press gag" act; he joined the liberal bloo in upholding the constitu tionality of the Indiana chain-store tax; he sided with the lib-' cnils in the "red flag" case coming out of California. ALL THIS has happened in the less than two years that Mr. Hughes has been chief justice, and it is sufficient to assure fonvnrd-loqking poople that he cannot be stampeded that he sees good in the new, yet clings to the best in the old. If it wore possible always to secure such a man as Charles Evans Hughes, the country could safely get along with one man on the supreme bench instead of nine, Oregonian.

BURSA, BURSA, WB O HAS A BURSA? New York Dye Works, Inc., of Indefinitely long after the trouble has Connecticut, writes a monograph en titled "Doc Brady's Bursitis vs. Mine." I am 37 years of sge. While play ing baseball two yeans ago I threw the ball with great force and suffered a sharp pain In shoulder. This disappeared a quickly as It came. Thereafter the pain return ed momentarily whenever I threw the ball hard. One morning two montha later I awoke with pain In the shoulder which grew steadily worse, and after two daya could .not raise my arm at all. Sleepless nights doctor tried strap ping arm and snouioer ano sung. No good. X-ray of shoulder showed bursa. Bone specialist referred me to throat specialist. Next day my tonall were removed In the old Spanish style.- Two weeks after that the shoulder pain disappeared com pletely. Second reel. Time, 1931. This time the loft shoulder. I dropped from horizontal bar with all my weight on the wrists and experienced sudden pain in left shoulder. For five months thereafter any use of that shoulder gave considerable pain. Pain occurred only when shoulder moved In a certain direction. So one day I went and had X-ray made, and sure enough there waa a bursa In that shoulder too. This time I had diathermy treatments recommended by the X-ray specialist. I have Just finished my seventh diathermy treat ment and It doea NOT help. Strap ping the shoulder only Increased the pain, so I asked the doctor to re move the adhesive . . . Kuh, my bursitis ran on for six months, tho 1 never knew It was bur sitis I thought It was one thing or another, such as closed car neuritis, a cervical rib, aortic aneurism, sar coma of the acromion, etc.. etc., as even a doctor wilt- do when he Is feeling mean and the diagnosis was not made until after my bursitis was completely cured. Mine was cured by counter Irritation, I reckon. Anyway, the right shoulder suddenly coased troubling me when I sustained a fr -ture of the left ehoulder. The ort: pedlo man who made some X-ray negatives of the Injured ehoulder made one of the sound shoulder for comparison, and discovered a calcified deposit in the subdeltoid (subacro mial) Bursa. Inflammation of this Uttle pad la a common cause of lame or painful shoulder. The bursa Is a thin sac containing a few drops of fluid. It Is outside the shoulder Joint and has no communication ith the Joint. Often such bursitis Is diagnosed as brachial neuritis. In some cases the pain la so severe that the patient Is absolutely disabled. Whether bursitis Is caused solely by ' violence or by focal Infection or by both la a moot question. -In some- cases there Is no hlator. of Injury or strain or of sud den onset. Both men and women suffer, and sedentary folk as much aa athletic. In most cases of subdeltoid bursitis a calcareous deposit occurs In or about the bursa, and this appears In the X-ray film sometimes apparently within a few days after the on1 of the trouble. In many case the shadow of the calcification disappears as the pain and lameness clear up. but sometimes the deposit remains Sundown stories VERT, VERY 1HOH By Mary Uraham Bonner "We're going right up, right away," said the pilot ss he came for them, and he had a new and more powerful looking plane U1U im vie A.v. lmu o -ji etn ui dh j(u oj moS M,M jond etri pi -n 'eu ii -Ddxrt uqor PDU peujiu piuini uq sum em sh.. - uieir) j ti ft n o j q pU u uoiqu tit uo m uatn up all th time.

Others have found more conservative phyalcal therapy sufficient to - relieve most cases, especially rest, manipulation of the ehoulder under .anesthesia, pas sive movement, later active exercises and heat.

PLAYINO UPON EMOTIONS By Alice Jndson Prale - The child dawdlea over his dinner and mother saya pleadingly, "You make mother very unhappy when you don't eat your aplnach. Mother's going to cry," and, burying her face in -her hands, she emit mournful noises. Junior comes home from school with a bad report, and mother com ment. "Your father'a going to b terribly ashamed of you. We never thought a boy of ours would lack pride In his school work." -Daughter, arguing that ah would like to go away to college, Instead of attending the local one and liv ing at home, is told that ahe will break her mother's heart, that she is ungrateful, hard, selfish, and cruel. At all ages and under circum stances that vary from ths measly ludicrous to the realty cruolal, par ents are likely to mak this sort of appeal, playing upon tli child's love for them. It Is stupid and unfair. A child should eat what Is set before him, go to bed on time, play out of doors, go through any and all parts of a wholesom routine as a matter of habit and because, and only because, they ar noceamry to hi good health and growth. The child should see his obligations at school and at horn merely In term of a responsibility 'to himself and almpl fairness to others. In all decision which affect the child's education and th widening of hi Interest beyond th circle of the home, th way In which th per sonal happiness of parent may be anecteo la beside th point.

The next mom ing Fourth come back, thorough ly rained on. saying "t think I'm dying." Chapter 18 A SWALLOWED CANARY REALLY?" Sam raised her eye brows. "How inconvenient" "Joan!" Fourth turned. "Please lon't be cruel. I I've been In sell!" "Ton look It." Joan cou'a not resist the temptation to smile, and it the same time to relent. "I'll tee if I can't stir up some break fast for you. Yon haven't had any, suppose?" "Breakfast!" K made a gesture which Implied that breakfast bad been furthest from this thoughts. 'I don't think that I want any." Fifteen minutes late, he was rapped In his bathrobe and was latlng a hearty meal with every appearance of enjoyment. He looked up at Sam and said earnest ly: "Committing suicide Isn't an easy thing, Joan." "Where did you spend the night? In the garage?" He shuddered. "Some ot the time I was In the garage. Some of the time I wandered. I wonder where I'll be wandering tonight." Sam pointed a stern finger. "Look here. Fourth," she demanded. "Don't you think that we've had about enough ot this foolishness? I have an Idea that you'd better make np your mind to stay here and be agreeable, or get out" He sighed. "Then I shall have to get out. It Is obvious that I am not wanted here." "That's nonsense." Sam was con temptuous. "It's entirely up to you whether or not you stay here, and personally I think you'd bettet. It might be more pleasant tban walk ing the streets." "PerbarJs you're right" Fourth shivered reminiscently. "At any rate, Joan, I promise to give the matter careful consideration." From that time, lite In the stable went on more or less smoothly. Fourth, to be sure, utterly refused to speak a single woru to his new daughter-in-law, and he avoided her as carefully as possible. Of his son, however, he gradually became more tolerant and It seemed pos sible that eventually there might by a complete reconciliation. Nelson, as be had anticipated, bad difficulty In finding a Job, and It was Peak wbo gave him some thing to do. Peak apologized to Sam tor the nature of the work and tor the small salary that went with it Sam waved the apologies away. "The salary doesn't matter," she said. "He and Martha can live at the stable as long as Is necessary." . "How about Fourth? Doesn't he make things difficult?" "He did at first, but he's calming down now. I think he has some thing else on his mind." ' Sam frowned. "To tell you the truth, Peak, I'm Just a bit worried about that something else." "What do you mean?" "I mean that he's fussing about with that darn Invention ot his again. Every company In the country has told blm that It Is no good for commercial use, but tbey can't convince Fourth." "Why be worried?" Peak laughed. "It may take his mind oft Nelson, and It can't do any harm, anyhow." "That's Just what I'm worried about I'm atrald It may do harm." She hesitated. "Yon see. Peak, Fourth has a widow. Her name is Eugenie Frye." "What do you mean 'has a widow'?" "Just what I say. She's in love with him that's obvious. 8h has a lot of money, too." Peak whistled. "Do you really mean it?. What's bis widow like?" Sam smiled. "Oh, she's she's " "I see. Yon mean you're afraid that Fourth might marry her?" "Marry her?" Sam's eyes opened wide In astonishment "I never thought ot that! That would be awtul. But no. Fourth wouldn't marry her, ever. I know him too wall to think that" CALL CONFERENCE ON CHILD HEALTH SALEM. Oct. 17.

"His Invention," Sam explained patiently. "Don't yon see. Peakl I'm afraid be might get money from her tor his Invention. He was tell ing her about it th other night, and I'm sure that was what was in bis head. He hopes she'll back him financially, and she might be just tool enougb to do It" "I see." Peak considered the idea tor a time, but then he smiled and shook bis head. "I don't think there's any need for anxiety. Thess rich widows are usually wise birds, and since you Bay that tbe Inven tion is no good " "1 didn't say that that's Just the' trouble. It the thing wasn't any good at all it would be another matter. It is all right Peak; every body admits that They just say it isn't practical for commercial use. Fourth might convince his widow that the experts are wrong." Again Peak pondered. "If I were you I'd just sit tight and wait II events make it necessary for you to take steps, yon can take them." "Yon bet I can take them!" Sam was grim. "Tile widow Frye means nothing to me. hut I'm not going to stand by and watch her spend her good money for nothing." Sam knew that Peak's advice was sensible. At the same time wait ing was nervous business. Fourth's excitement Increased dally. He waa continually rushing in and out of the house on mysterious errands. He made innumerable calculations on the backs ot old envelopes. The crisis came quite unexpect edly. Sam came home' from the city late one afternoon to find that Fourth had arrived before her. He was playing a lusty march upon the mouth organ, and Sam needed no more than a glance to know that he was on the crest of one of bis 'more precipitous emotional waves. She took oft her hat and rubbed her forehead. "You look disgust ingly cheerful.. What's the cause to.- celebration?" "Celebration?" He took the mouth organ from his Hps and winked at her. Then he glanced mysteriously about the room and hummed the concluding bars of the tune he had been playing. "Who said anything about a celebration, Joan?" "I did." She regarded him severely. "There's no use in try ing to he coy. Fourth. You look exactly as though you'd swallowed the canary. What's np?" "My dear child!" He smiled with Intense satisfaction. "I'm not aware that anything Is up, and yon should know by this time that I make it a rule never to swallow canaries. My mother used to say to me: 'Never swallow a canary, my son, and you'll grow up to be a credit to the nation.'" "All right have it your own way." Sam know that there was nothing to.be done witb blm In that mood. It he had something to divulge he would divulge it at his own sweet pleasure. She turned toward the stairs, but Fourth stopped her. "I deem it a great honor." he said sweetly, "to be able to inform you at this time that my son and bis estimable spouse have flown the coop. In more vulgar terms I might say tbey have skipped tho well known gutter." ' Sam was motionless for an In stant Then she turned slowly, a bright spot of color in either cheek. "Are you trying to ' 11 me." she in quired evenly, "that Nelson and Martha have gone away?" Fourth grinned. "Precisely, ray dear child." Sam walked ovtr to whers be stood and looked up at him. "Have they gone for good?" He continued to grin. ""For good' are exactly the words 1 should use to express the Idea. I can assure you that their departure is more or less a permanent move." Sam gulped, hardly able to be lieve her ears. "Did you have any thing to do wltb their going?" Fourth rocked back on his heels and made an elaborately depreca ting gesture. "My nature rebels, Joan, at saying anything that might sound like a boast At the same time, honesty compels me to blush and admit that I bad ererithing to do with their going." Sam took a full step backward, bor eyes blazing. "You " She almost choked over her words. "You I" lOopyright. Freeman Lincoln) Fourth mors than holds his owr, In ths next Installment.
