SAY RAIL AGENTS
Steady, substantial Improvement In
business conditions In Oregon and
throughout the western states as re
flected In the business of the Illinois
Central system was .the optimistic
message . brought to Medlord this
week by H. J. Nelson, general agent,
and J. B. McLauhglln, commercial
agent, of that well known railway
system. Mr. Nelson and Mr. McLaugh
lin especially noted the increased
confidence on the part of the people
of this state In the rapids recovery
of western business and Immediate
Improvement in tourist travel, one
of Oregon's major Industries.
The attitude of eastern and mid
western business men in the present
economic situation was revealed by
L. A. Downs, president of the Illi
nois Central system. In comment
ing upon the present conditions of
the railroads, Mr. Down said:
"Adversity bas been a stern task
maker, and It has caused the rail
roads to exert themselves to meet
present conditions. Service has been
Improved In many ways. Bates have
been materially reduced. Great econ
omies have been effected. - With the
railroads It has been a case of for
getting the past, looking at the pres
ent, and looking to the future, and
I cannot offer a better formula than
that for the attitude which the pub
lic ought to have toward the rail
roads." Concerning the farm situation, Mr.
Downs had this to say:
"The farm situation concerns a
large part of our population. Mil
lions of our people are engaged In
agricultural pursuits, and other mil
lions are normally occupied In sup
plying them with such of their needs
as they do not produce themselves.
An Improved outlook for agriculture,
therefore, constitutes one of the
most Important signposts of Improve
ment that we can have for the coun
try as a whole. Crop prospects ore
generally good throughout the Mls
lppl vails jr. Prices of grain, cotton
and livestock have advanced. Prices
of most of the things t&at farmers
nave to buy have declined. These
favorable developments promise an
Improvement In the farm situation,
and already there Is evidence of that
Improvement being realized."
Mr. Downs offers this reason why
conditions should be greatly im
proved: -
"Adjustments have bad to be made
and have been made. Business ev
erywhere .has economized pust as In
dividuals have done. One way to
look at It U that we have -used this
period of comparative Inactivity to
repair our machinery of . production
and distribution and put It In con
dition better to meet the demands
that are sure to be placed upon It
when business Improves, as It cer
tainly will. When our economic ma
chinery gets Into full operation again
I think we are going to find It run
ning more smothly than ever before.
"Comparing the situation In 1032
with that In 1020, there are many
reasons to look with Increased con
fidence for business aclvlty. We .have
in this country today a larger popu
lation than we had three years ago,
and every member of our Increased
population bos the same wants and
desires and at least equal ability
end opportunity to satisfy them as
our 1029 population had. In many
lines of business stocks which were
in existence three years ago have
been depleted or wiped out entirely.
There has been a very great letdown
In construction work of all kinds.
All these things go to make a great
reservoir of consuming demand which
awaits only the Indication that bet
ter times are ahead to exert Its In
fluence upon business. The princi
pal thing that Is needed to tap this
reservoir Is a balanced stabilization
of prices. Recent' developments seem
to Indicate that such stabilization Is
at hand. If that Is the case, there
la promise of Increased activity In
many lines of business.
"Some of the moat promising as
sets for business recovery are intan
gible, difficult of measurement and
not easy of expression. Among such
intangibles I would place the new
splrtl of frankness, self-examination,
admittance of error, which has grown
up among business men."
B. P. W. Club Dinner
Large, Festive Affair
A Very successful event of last eve
ning was the dinner of &e Business
and Professional women's club, held
at the Hotel Med ford, In the small
dining room, which was beautifully

mass daisies, which were used for
banking the corners of the dining
ball and In large basket bouquets.
Mrs. May belle Church, Instructor
of English at the Junior high school,
addressed the meeting on the advan
tages of having memberships In wo
men's organizations. She spoke on
the 10-year objective of the National
Federation of Business and Profes
sional Women's Olubs, which will be
taken up In study groups locally.
The objective is for education of
women along various lines, particu
larly taxation and economics.
Mrs. H. D. McCaakey spoke on the
work of operating a humane society
and brought out the difficulties met
through thoughtless, unstudied leg
islation. Mrs. A. J. -Hanby spoke on the
conservation of provisions and sup
ples for the unemployed, bringing
out the methods used In accumula
tion of commodities and ways and
means of distribution.
The local club went on record as
disapproving use of a dole system In
distribution of commodities, stating
that all commodities distributed
should be for labor performed.
A suggestion was offered that a
community kitchen might be plan
ned to advantage by using up the
surplust from various restaurants.
Mrs. Edwlna We lshaar, president
of the club, presided and the splen
did program presented was arranged

5AL.L.V eiLERS
If you want to keep your hands
nice I have some hints that may help
you.
X wash my hands In oatmeal water
once a week and apply olive oil
around the cuticle each night. In
addition, every time I wash my hands
I use honey and almond cream and
rub it In well. Unusual or extra
ordinary stains I remove with a lem
on. When my hands have been exposed
to cold weather during, the day I
cream my hands before retiring and
sleep with gloves on. In the sum
mer I do not wear them.
