Here on the Wisconsin river about 50 miles northwest of Madison, those lovers of the beautiful-, the French explorers settled, one hundred and fifty years ago. The country is a living demonstration of their good taste. As Dr. Johnson or was it Bottomleyt said of the strawberry.-perhaps God could have made a better berry but he never did so one might say, God perhaps could have made a more beautiful and perfect agricultural section but if he did, "WHERE is itt From Madison northward the cement highway winds thru wooded hills, from the tops of which the country spreads out miles and miles, a perfect pano rama of peace and plenty. Ex cept for the tobacco fields that are green as grass and cover miles and miles, the agricultur al picture is the same as Illi nois, Iowa and Nebraska, corn and grain, cows and chickens and -pigs, big barns, comfort able farm houses and silos only iu this part of Wisconsin, the corn is a little taller, the ears a litjle larger, the grain thicker and more heavily head ed, the cows finer, the pigs cleaner and fatter, and the farm houses, many of them of sandstones on hillsides, amid parks of oaks and maples and elms, so much more pifctur esque. Perhaps the day had something to do with it. For after three days of suffocating heat, the mercury had dropped, the atmosphere cleared, there was life and sparkle in the air. But at that, the present writT er will stake this section of the Midweat against the agricul tural world, and even let that anti-cornbelt Miss from the Golden Gate sit among the judges! Up here they say Senator La Follette is going to get "his" this year, as'Brookhart did in Iowa and for the same reason the people want a change. -That is our reason, not theirs. Thero is a great doal of talk about what LaFollctte has failed to do, and how his oppo nent is making a monkey out of him, but nothing tangible as far as we can see. They can't hang the noover jinx on LaFol lctte, for like Brookhart he has fought the administration. They can't hook him up with Big Business, for he has fought the socalled money class, with all the fervor of his famous father. He is likeable, liberal and clean, yet everyone seems to feel sure he will be defeated in the fall. So we can put the reason down to blind revolt and nothing else. Any man in office suffers a terrifio handi cap this year, the man "out" fighting to get "in" has a tre mendous advantage. That is the only basis we can see for the widespread conviction that young Bob won't return to the senate. Wisconsin has a marvelous system uf good roads, and one feature we have never seen before. There are practically no grado crossings in the state. The highway commission has built at great expense, large bridges over all the railroad crossings, so one can motor for miles through this lake country and never cross a railroad track. Another advantage of this part of the state it is suffici ently far away from Chicago, to escape the Windy City mo toring mob, which has so ruined the southern portion of Wisconsin. , It Hoover isn't elected this fall, the veteran old line poli ticians of Illinois and Wiscon sin, will have to eat a lot of old crow. For without excep tion these old boys declare Jlwst a a mX JYj tavj talked to many of them, in newspaper offices and out, and without exception they think it is all over but the shouting. We have never seen a political sentiment so universal and so thoroughly crystalized. After talking with them one wonders why the Wall Street odds in favor of Hoover should be 6-5 instead of two to one. And by and large they all ex plain their self confidence in one way by the vote at the last election. The Middlewest they explain is normally Re publican. Admitted that Roose velt will get many Republican votes, he can literally get thou sands, hundreds of thousands and still fall far short of a majority. They are sure that Roosevelt isn't strong enough to split the normal Republican vote that Baker, Ritchie, Byrd or Smith MIGHT have done it but he CAN'T do it. And to win the Democratic candidate must do JUST THAT. In other words, without a strong Third party to split things np, they are cer tain Hoover will win. Time only will tell whether or not they are right. . We know of one-vote Roose velt has lost during the past week. An old Rockford friend, a pal of Clarence Darrow, and a confirmed radical, was for Roosevelt two weeks ago chief ly because he hates Hoover. But when he read about Owen D. 'Young, General Electric magnate conferring with Roosevelt and endorsing him, and then Vincent Astor, the multi-millionaire giving his support, with the statement, "no one need fear the intelli gent liberalism of Franklin D. Roosevelt" our old friend, not only deserted the New Tork governor, but panned him pro fanely.' "I would rather have Hoov er who is at least frankly for the property class and honest about it, than a man like Roose velt who talks about breaking the Power Trust and hooks up with Owen D. Young j talks about the "forgotten man" and joins hands with a golden headed sap like Vincent Astor. I am off him for life." Thore is no doubt that Roose velt to date has been running true to form, trying to carry water on both shoulders. Told that his radicalism is unpopu lar in -the East he is posing there as more conservative than Hoover j realizing the same radicalism is popular in the West, Senator Norris is ad vertising him as the only hope of the "trust robbed and ex ploited masses." Roosevelt might read with profit the fable about the greedy dog who also thought he could play both ends against the middle grabbed at the second bone he saw reflected in the water, and lost them both 1 R.

Today By Arthur Brisbane Los Angeles Success, Four Great Japanese, Girls Almost Dead Heat What a Polite Waitress. Copyright King Features Synd., Ine. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9. You are sitting, high in the air, looking through another's eyes, at the Olympic swimming races. A pool of clear blue water, fifty meters long lies below you, a brilliant sun shining on it. The bigger stadium is vis ible nearby. It contains one hundred and five thousand numbered and reserved seats, biggest structure in the world, and built of steel and conorete, to last "forever." It did not have room for the crowd that came to see the games start. Los Angeles has done this thing "right", to use the pre vailing expression. This swim ming stadium seats ten thou sand, every seat filled. The pool la divided Into lanes, red Unas along the water top separating the swimmers of seven nations, Great Brltsln, TJ. 8. A., Brazil, Japan, Hun gary, Canada, Argentina, In th order named. In one corner, amtllng pleasantly as their, pictures are taken, you see four young dsrk-sklnned Japanese. Watch them swim, and you see perfect physical mechanism, used with perfect knowledge of what heart snd muscles can do. The pistol sends the aeven Into the water at the aame second. It is a relay rac of eight hundred meters, four swimmers of each nation each swlmmkig two hundred meters. Th Jspanese are smaller than the whiter races, smaller than our United States swimmers from Hawaii. Their arms and legs are slender, chests deep and wide. The first Jspanese In the relay leapa far out Into the water, dives, swims below the water, until he loses lmpetua, comes to the surface ahead of hla competitors. He and the three that relay htm, stay ahead, until t&.i race la won In elgth minutes, fifty eight and four-tenths seconds. The Olymplo record, established by the United Ststes In 1938, of nine min utes thlrty-slx and two-tenths sec ond la shattered, cut down by thirty seven seconds. Mytazakl, Yua,Toyoda and Yoko hama are the four Japanese high school boys that beat the world. They eould make Leander look like a sea cow, tied to a wharf. They all use th aame swimming stroke, arms flung far ahead, legs held straight, feet scarcely moving, tapping the water like a propeller, with back of Instep, head burled in water nlne-tentha of time, turning for a fraction of a second to suck In air through noatrlla and mouth, per fect whit teeth showing Just at the waters surface. No wonder Japan can swim. The Japanese practice In a big way. From a Japanese man-of-war, an officer will dive. In perfect form, fifty jailors diva after him, and, In formation, like a miniature battle fleet, the offi cer keeping the lead, they will awlm In lines, rigidly maintained, for twenty-five miles, through rough water. How can you expect to beat them? Their victory la applauded with cheers that delight them. Japan'a athletea can testify that no American or other winner Is applauded here more warmly than the winning Japa nese. Then th young' ladle swam, a breast stroke race ot two hundred meters. The breaat atroke la alow. for at every atroke th body loses momentum, and must ba restored to motion by a violent kick. With the "crawl" atroke, motion la uninter rupted.

SEVEN AGES OF ITCHING When we are young and In our prime It seems we Itch most all the time, with heat rash, hives and wool en undies, mosqui toes, fleas and In sect sundries. Then by and bye we en ter school, play In the gym, swim In the pool, catch scabies, ringworm, pendlculosls, and fungus foot trl copbytosls. At last we get so tough and old that noth ing else will bite us, yet we keep on Itching just the same with exquisite bath pruritus, I wasnever much Impressed by Im passioned descriptions of Itching un dies until I tried some of the lower degrees myself. My Idea was to be gin with something mild and gradu ally work up to real Itching. So I tried bedbugs. The Itch of Clmex lectularlua is exasperation rather than Itching exasperating because you vaguely feel something biting but you can't seem to tell where It Is, and while you're dozedly cogitat ing thla phenomenon the first guest slips away and brings back some of her friends and they all set to right merrily eand enjoy a hearty meal be fore you finally get up and commence the ghastly work of execution. Bcables, formerly called "seven year Itch," Is more like. Indeed I hold that seven hours Is enough of that for any one to have, and the thoro application of a properly made sul phur ointment will cure It within seven hours, too. -When I had orthoform erythema I felt I had begun to understand what It- means to itch. Orthoform Is a medicine, and some Individuals hap pen to have an Idiosyncrasy or pe culiar sensitiveness to ceraln medi cines or chemicals. I had to have three successive attacks of orthoform dermatitis, each a little more severe, before It dawned on me that the at tacks came only when I handled the stuff In the treatment of a patient. But I know now that I never Itched any to speak of until I had Ivy pois oning. That Is the 9th degree of itching. If there is anything worse than Ivy dermatitis In the Itching line I'd rather not hear about It. Por the relief of ordinary itching, such as mosquito or other bites, one of the following remedies may be used. Rub the spot with a piece of wet soap. Touch It with tlnciture of lodln. Touch It with peroxide. Bathe with a handful of saleratus (soda) in a basin of water. Apply calamin lotion. record for 200 meters, breast stroke of three minutes, six and three-tenths seconds. The first three finished the race almost In the same second. Miss Maehata and Miss Jacobsen both beating the Olympic record. 4 This Is the place to reproduce a statement by George Young, publish er of the Los Angeles Examiner. "There is nothing remarkable about the Xact that so many Olympic and world recoris have been beaten. at this Olympiad. IT IS ALL DUE TO THE STIMULATING EFFECTS OP CALIFORNIA'S WONDERFUL SUMMER CLIMATE. It Is time the world knew that California la the world's most marvelous summer re sort, In addition to being Its most super-wqnderful winter climate." George Young would not deceive you, nor would he exaggerate. This cool air and summer sunshine. the nights, with the Inevitable blan ket, the ozone that comes rolling In from the depths of the Pacific mean long life and great power. Helen Wills Moody, Is one of their by-products. Come for the last few days of these Olympic games, which prove. Indeed, that we are "fearfully snd wonder fully made". Everybody In Los Angeles will wel come you. each delighted to see you. In Mr. Charles Bsad'a Blltmore Dolores Informs World Doesn 't Like Hollywood HOLLYWOOD. (AP) Here's a girl who Is different: Nineteen-year-old Dolores Rey Is singing the "Broadway Blues." And she's not "putting on an act," either. Dolores la ftftry she came to Hollywood. She doeant like the town. Its climate or Its men. She prefers the stage to the screen. Seven a. m. calls Irritate her and long studio hours are "most annoying." Dolores, a New York show girl, say she was "talked Into" putting her name on a talkie contract that may keep her here five years. "My friends told me It would be a. great experience, acting In pic tures." she says. "They convinced m Hollywood is an ldel place to live and work." But they were wrong. she states emphatically. And why doe n't Dolores go home? Because, If she lumped her con tract, she wouldn't be allowed to work for Its duration five years on elthe stage or screen. Mtss Rey, who is charming despite her Irascibility, suggests both Jean Harlow and Constance Bennett in appearance. Dolores was born In Freono. Csl . but has lived In New I'aWk most oi hex un Calamin lotion is a standard form ula for the relief of itching, smart ing, burning and consists of: Powdered calamin. ....One ounce Powdered zinc oxide One ounce Glycerin (tablespoonful. ounce Lime water to make one pint. This should be labeled Calamin Lotion. Shake It up well and apply by sop ping on with fingers, without rub bing. Let dry on the skin. Use as often as you wish. In case of intense itching, as in Ivy poisoning, it Is necessary to add to the Calamin Lotion a small amount of phenol (carbolic acid). The drug. gist can sell without prescription a solution of phenol (carblic acid) In water in the strength of 6 per cent (one part carbolic acid in twenty of water). Two ounces of , this 6 per cent pnenoi solution may be used instead of two ounces of the lime water In preparing Calamin Lotion. The addition of the phenol renders the lotion much more soothing for extreme Itching or Irritation. Of course phenol (carbolic acid) should not be applied If there is & break In tlu spin or a raw sore or wound of any kind, unless under the ysyct clan's direction. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Man Versus Insect . Please tell me how to get rid of ants. They are In sun parlor, din ing room. I have tried quite a few things but nothing did any good. Also Is there anything that will keep flies and mosquitoes away? (Mrs. A. D. M.) Ans. On receipt of your request and stamped addressed envelope we will mall you instructions for get ting rid of any of these pests. The Water Is Fine I am a girl 18 years old, very fond of sports, especially swimming. I would like to continue swimming during menstruation. Please advise me on this subject. (V. S.) Ans. I know no reason why a girl should not go swimming at that time. Cure of Hernia I had an operation for hernia 'five months ago but it was not success ful. I am anxious to know If It can be cured without ah operation. (E. M.) Ans. Inpectlon treatment offers as good a chance of cure aa would an operation. I do not know of a physi cian In your city qualified to give you such treatment but I can recom mend one In a neighboring city If you wish. Copper Water Tank We use a copper lined water heat ing tank. Sometimes the water has a greenish colon Is this Injurious to our .health? (O. R. Y.) Ans. No, a trace of copper In water or food Is rather beneficial. Sweet Shop, where you breakfast, girls that wait oft you are so beauti ful, they look practically alike. There Is no difference in perfection. In doubt you ask one of them "are you my young lady" and Bhe replies instantly, with a smile that would make the Mona Lisa seem dull "I should like to be." After that, you can hardly say "Please hurry those eggs." 4- E FOLIAGE MANILA (AP) Attempts to pro duce. quinine in the Philippines have been set back by locusts. The pests damaged a grove of chlnchona trees grown by the burwu of forestry on Mindanao Island. . . The plantation of several thousand trees was started In 1937 In the hope of setting up a local supply of the medicine, which is essential in the treatment of malaria. - The Insular government at that time paid 92000 for a tiny bottle containing chlnchona seeds, buying them In Java. Attempts to get a larger supply were frustrated by the Dutch government. The trees had thrived In the southern islands, and millions of seedlings were ready for transplant ing. 1 V - " A' s. f- Flight 'o Time (Medford and Jackson Coont History from the Piles ot The Mall Tribune of 9 and 10 fear AQ.)

E 10 WHITE COLLAR ROME (AP) High-salaried execu tives frequently have cost more to discharge than to keep on the pay roll, so Italy has another law to regulate the situation. The law accords a discharged em ployee a bonus of a month's pay for each year of service with a limit of $250 a month for such a calcu lation. Business conditions caused a mul titude of firms to economize. Most evident of all reducible expenses were titled and social celebrities on boards of directors, often chiefly decorative. There were also many aging employees whose long service hhad transformed wages into com fortable salaries. Seeking to replace the dead-wood with young, low-pay. adding ma chine clerks, corporations found that often It cost hem from $5000 to $50,000 to turn off certain em ployees. So Mussolini put through the new law limiting the basis of bonus computation to $3000 a year. Even with that limit it has cost some large banks' and corporations $1,000,000 or more to cut their pay rolls. Many employees are being carried along because It will cost less to do that for a few years and then retire them on pensions. ROME (AP) "bady of the house home? Any cigarette butt today, please?"
