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

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

CALCIUM FOR MIGRAINE HEADACHES.
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.

but those monument can never be

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

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

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.

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.
