Wire Governor Meter TTITITH the resignation of Albert Burch from .the state board of higher education, Southern Oregon lost its only repre sentative on that important body, and the board lost one of its most capable and public spirited members. It is now our understanding that Governor Meier, in choosing a successor to Mr. Burch, has reduced the list to two, a resi dent of Portland and a resident of Southern Oregon, with certain indications favoring the selection of the former. We feel the naming of a Portland man, would be a great mistake, and work a grave injustice on Southern Oregon. TPHE board of education should represent the entire state. Most of its members now come from' Portland and the northern part of Oregon. Naming another man from Portland, we feel would be giving the state metropolis, a preponderance on. the board that would be neither desirable from the stand point of that board's effectiveness! nor fair to the rest of the state. WE have wired Governor Meier to this effect, and urged him, for the above reasons, to name as successor to Mr. Burch, a resident of Southern Oregon. We suggest that other citizens of Southern Oregon and the various civio bodies, take similar action the more the list is truly representative of all sections of this part of the state, the better. And the more outspoken and emphatic the demand, the better the chance of Southern Oregon, receiving, in this matter, what IS MERELY HER TUST DUE. A Correction Is Made llf E thank the News for making a correetion today, of its J misrepresentation of the facts, in its Thursday-issue, regarding the association of the Mail Tribune and KMED. The News represented this arrangement, as the result of "three husky gentlemen, representing the Mail Tribune, and one lady representing KMED" sitting around a table in a local hotel, and arriving at an agreement "purely political" in char acter because a "certain candidate seeking high office" insisted upon it. ' . No "lady" was present at this conference. Nor were there "three husky gentlemen" from the Mail Tribune. There were Only two men representing this paper, and one of them at least, never claimed the title of "husky". The third member of the party was Mr. Gorton of KMED only three in all. No candidate for high office, or any other office had anything to do with this agreement, and there was not and is not anything political in it whatever. IT was, as Mr. Gorton, in his correction, pointd out, SOLELY A BUSINESS arrangement. The Mail Tribune is simply returning to a daily broadcastof news,and occasional "broad casts of important sporting events, like the present world series, which it carried on through KMED for so many years, and under precisely the same conditions, now, as then. - Nor did the Mail Tribune "take" this broadcasting service away from the morning paper. It was taken away by KMED, on its own initiative, and the solicitation for an arrangement with this paper, came, as Mr. Gorton states, ENTIRELY FROM THEM. , e e CO with this explanation, and the correction of the Daily J News, we trust there will be no further doubt, regarding the entire propriety of this agreement, and its absolute freedom from any political consideration whatever. We trust the new arrangement will be satisfactory to both parties, and render a service , of value to all the people of Southern Oregon. Better Stick to Hoover I SEE nothing in Franklin Roosevelt to indicate that he is a better man than Herbert Hoover, either mentally or spiritu ally. I do not like his appeal to discontent atid diss prejudice. I do not like his effort to be both for Tammany aud against Tammany. I do not fnncy the'idea of having the next four critical years usod by the occupant of the White House as a springboard from which to leap at renomination in 1936. I prefer to take a chancu on the for four years and who can say years more and nothing to think believe to be right." IN my judgment, the Democrats at Chicago threw away s great opportunity. They adopted a strong straightforward plat form. If they had then proceeded to nominate a really strong man, such as Newton Baker, they would have put thousands of thoughtful Republicans in a The Democrats chose to turn from him and nominate a genial gentleman who, as Governor of New York, has shown neither strength nor conviction, who for the past two years hag played the political game with an eye single to the presidential nomi nation. TJOOVERS appointments have been excellent. His cabinet members are honest and secondary offices have been except in the war, have there been more men serving the govern' ment at personal sacrifice and with no regard to political re- ward. Foreign nations know he is gaining strength in the started and cank'd forward the struction. A LL this progress will be halted if he is thrown out of office, and things will be at a standstill until Roosevolt finds him self and the country learns whether he can or cannot be trusted. We shall have to go through two years again with Roosevelt aa we went through them with Hoover, during which questions will be decided with an eye to that period. If he is reelected He will have nothing to gain future political favor. He should, and I believe he will, be stronger than he has been in the an' Home Companion, e man who has stood the battle to himself, "I have only four of except to try to do what I difficult position. able; his appointments to the notably good.

Believers in inherited abil ity will watch these young men hoping, however, that there will be no war to let them show how much of their grandfath er's ability they inherited. Military genius is rarely, if ever, inherited. Philip, father of Alexander and the father of Frederick the Great, were not military geniuses. Caesar stood alone in his line. The Foch grandsons have this in their favor, they appear to be sons of Foch's DAUGH TERS.

Fathers, mothers, doctors, and especially Chrlstlsn Scientists, will learn with lntereet that Gandhi, building up atrength after a danger oua fast, relies largely on "aweet music." Nervousness Is Injurious. Mind controls nerves. Music controls the mind. Man la at least fifty per cent mind, and ought to be SO per cent. The late Dr. Leven, In charge of the Rothschild hospital for children In Paris, gave orders that children In delicate health be awakened with sort music. The Nazis, Oermeny'a Imitation fascists, demand that the allies "re tract the war guilt lie" accusing Ger many of starting the war. Why quarrel about who started It?

I have 'received so many testimo nials like the following that. I begin to think there may be something more than coin cidence In it. I wish our readers who have mi graine would give the thing a clini cal teat and re port what results they experience. If a thousand mi graine sufferers were to do that, we'd have some thing tangible to go on: "Another Important cure you have achieved in our family Is the calcium lactate you suggested for my migraine headaches. I could WTlte a book on how I suffered days In bed crazy with pain. The warning of numbness and spots before my eyes was enough to cause suicide before the attack In full. Have taken the calcium lactate only a few months and not regularly, but will always keep some on hand and tn my system. For over 15 years I suffered had tried many things to help, but with little benefit until you told me of calcium lactate. The only periods of temporary relief I had were when I was nursing babies, when the attacks were few. But now there hasn't been a severe attack since I began taking calcium lactate." By the way, I hope any other read ers who may report about this will be good enough to tell me briefly how long they have been subject to mi graine, how frequent the attacks, what the premonitory or warning signs of attacks are, whether vomiting occurs, whether the attacks put them In bed, and the present age. The use of calcium (lime) In any form Is based on the observation that In many cases of migraine there Is a deficiency In calcium metabolism. Calcium lactate Is selected because It Is fairly soluble and perhaps less likely to Irritate the stomach than other forms of lime. A fair dose for anybody to take ts 10 grains of cal cium lactate (In powder or in tablets, or In solution In a syrupy or sweet ened ellxer) three times a day, after food. This should be continued dally for a period of not less than eight or 10 weeks, In order to give the treat ment a fair trial. After that, If It seems beneficial, It ' may be taken from Duluth, Minn., "the American people have a constitutional right to vote on any proposal to make war outside our boundaries or to lend our money governmentally to foreign gof- ernments." He thinks that should be put Into the constitution. It ought not to be necessary to put It Into the constitution and tt would not be necessary if the voters paid attention to their government. Gentlemen In Washington flattered ! by foreign ambassadors, entertained at Buckingham palace or elsewhere, should not be allowed to send billions of American dollars or millions of American men across the 'ocean, with out the people's explicit approval. But common sense should attend to that, without another amendment. The British government la prompt ai d generous In relieving earthquake sufferers In Greece vhere shocks de stroying scores of villages have been felt for a week past. British battle ships bring Joed, clothing, medical supplies and doctors. Loss of ancient monuments, thrown down and destroyed, Is added, to the loss of life. . Greece can continue to produce able men and good women, but those monument can never be reproduced. Fortunately the greatest of the monuments are untouched. To discourage murder, take It seri ously. . In September Germany re ported not one political murder. Last July there were 86 such murders. A little while ago Von Hlndenburg Is sued a decree making political mur der a capital offense, and In Germany that means DEATH.

D. once a day or Just a few times a week, or, In some cases a second course of eight or 10 weeks may be taken a year later. It Is my theory or rather a theory which seems good to me, that the metabolism or utilisation of calcium (lime) In the body Is favored or pro moted by the following, which mi graine victims may or may not care to employ along with the calcium lactate medication. 1. Exposure of the naked skin to sunlight, or If sunlight Is not avail able, then ultraviolet rays from any carbon arc or mercury vapor quarts lamp. 2. A dally dose of cod liver oil. 3. In some cases parathyroid gland hormone which, of course, can be had only from your own physician. Calcium lactate may be bought In any good drug store. It decomposers on long keeping. It should make a clear or nearly clear solution In water. If the solution contains a white pre cipitate or cloud the calcium lactate Is not fresh and should not be used. I have no definite knowledge of the value of calcium lactate as a remedy In other forms of headache than migraine, but some physicians have found It helpful In certain cases of dull, heavy throbbing ache In the frontal and temporal regions, which patients have on awakening In the morning. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Lip Reading for Deaf. If your young correspondent who wants to learn lip reading and be come a teacher of deaf children will write to" League for the Hard of Hearing. 480 Lexington avenue. New York city, or to the local office of the league In her own city, she will receive all Information for Hp read ing and teaching. Mrs. A. O. W. Answer Thank you. Perhaps this will direct many deaf persons to the proper source of Information. Odd Exercise. Have been Interested In reading your articles on Colon Irrigations. Do you not consider Irrigations of value as an exercise to the colon? O. P. Answer No. Surely nature did not Intend that the colon should have such treatment. The habit Is pro moted by those who profit on popu lar credulity. (Copyright John T. Dine Co.) Communications They Asked No Bonus. To the Editor: I have been deeply grieved and humiliated by the action of the Le gion In voting the bonus. This ac tion has almost shattered my Ideals. I say almost, for deep In my heart I still have faith that should our coun try be confronted by another war. there still could be found men in whose souls burned the flames of patriotism men who would spring to arms tn defense of our country. No soldiers were evei so generously paid as the soldiers of the World war: In addition, they received part of their bonus at the close of the war. In this time of depression they go on record as demanding the re mainder of the bonus. During my more than 33 years with the regular army, and three years vith volunteers In Cuba and the Philippines, I never heard an officer nor a soldier express dissatisfaction with the compensation they received from the government for their serv ices. Their pay was far below that received by the soldiers of the World war. I have a letter, written to me by an officer in my husband's regiment after the battle of San Mateo, In which he said. In speaking of his colonel, "All the men in his com mand would have followed where he led---even to the mouth o: hell." No thought did these men give to compensation. I cite this as an ex ample of true patriotism, that heroic spirit which should imbue all men who don the uniform of the Amer ican soldier. ALICE APPLEGATE SARGENT. Jacksonville, September 37, 1932.

Ye Poet's Corner The following poem was 'read by John B. Griffin at the 67th annual reunion of Southern Oregon pioneers held In Jacksonville yesterday; THAT GOOD OLD TOWN I was born In good old Jacksonville, An old old mining town That nestles In the foothills. Wftere lots of gold was found. Of eighteen flfey-three, It was In mid September, And there was only one boy That came ahead of me. His name was Jim McCully And we used to play together, When the sun was shining nice and bright, And oo me times In rainy weather. But dear old Jim has passed away To that blessed land above, Where there la no sin or sorrow And all Is peace and love, But still he's living In my heart And always will I know For I never will forget him Till my time .has come to go. Then perhaps we'll be together In that land beyond the skies. Where we will live forever. Where no one ever dies. Sometimes I wander back To the good old town again But so many good old friends are gone It fills my heart with pain. The most of them are lying In the graveyard on the hill And they are softly sleeping Where, everything Is still. The last of them will soon be gone No one left to tell Of the early days In Jacksonville. The days we loved so well. v When farmers everywhere around Could come on Saturday And sell their stuff and buy their goods And then go on their way. But we will never say good-bye To the good old days of yore, For Jacksonville may yet come back, Be like It was before. For there's no better place to live Than that old mining town Where I was born In 'fifty-three. And it's mighty .hard to down. Now when the Pioneers shall meet In nineteen thirty-two I hope I'll be alive to read This poetry to you. MILK... 7 I 2f ....r...'...........r:I.r.Zl3tk. L V N ) cS BOTTLED HEALTH!
