Everyone Should Buy Seals
This Year
OXZ of the most disheartening features of the present de
pression is this undeniable factt
That when money for assisting the sick and unfortunate is
needed MOST, it is hardest to GET.
Everyone is hard up. Everyone is making sacrifices. And
for that very reason because the struggle for existenoe is harder
than ever, the need for helping the unfortunate greater than
ever.
TAKE the Christmas Seal sale, for example, which has just
started in Southern Oregon. .
The proceeds of this sale are devoted to the unending fight
against tuberculosis. The two great allies of this dread disease,
are exposure and malnutrition, absence of proper clothing,
absence of proper food.
One need scarcely add, that with the world wide depression
at its height, there are more rPle particularly children
without proper clothing and without proper food, than at any
time in many years probably more, than at any time in the
present generation.
Obviously then the need for this Christmas seal sale is
greater than before. But because of the general conditions,
putting the drive over the top 100 percent is going to be harder
than ever before.
BUT in our judgment the Christmas seal sale enjoys certain
advantages which SHOULD render such an achievement
possible this year.
Unlike many of the other drives, each contributor gets some
thing, a seal for each penny given. That should stimulate
trade. Secondly, the seals are in themselves attractive, useful
to, place on letters and on Christmas gifts. Third, and more
important, every person in the community CAN contribute, to
this worthy cause, and every person who has a few extra pennies
SHOULD contribute, for pennies are just as important in this
campaign as dollars.
In other words, while the burden placed upon the shoulders
of a few can't be as great as in former years; the burden on
the entire community can be greater, simply by extending the
numbers participating in it.
AND that is the basis of our appeal at this time. Let EVERY
ONE, young and old, large and small, buy Christmas seals
this year, if they can tmly afford to give a few pennies let
them give that; if dimes' and nickels, give dimes and nickels;
if quarters, then quarters, if dollars well the more dollars the
better and merrier.
BUT LET EVERYONE GIVE SOMETHING I
Let every letter and Christmas package sent out this year
bear some of these seals. Let it truly be an "all for one and
one for all campaign."
Then the success of this year's drive will be assured, Med
ford and Jackson county will maintain its reputation as the
banner Christmas seal district of the state, and our own children
here in Southern Oregon in need of clothes and in need of
proper food, will be protected from tuberculosis for another
year.
Wickersham Is Right
GEORGE W. WICKERSHAM, who was chairman of Presi
dent Hoover's commi&soin on law enforcement, is quoted
in an interview as acknowledging the "obvious failure" of pro
hibition, and making some further observations that should be
of interest and value as congress proceeds to change the govern
ment's liquor polioy.
"No law can be enforced," he remarks, "unless it is backed
by strong publio sentiment. The object of prohibition was to
create temperate habits. This obviously has failed; and if it
has, regulation must take its place." (
The tide of anti-prohibition feeling, as he sees it, has been
largely caused by "the extreme character of prohibition legis
lation the Volstead Act and the great intolerance of its pro
moters and the abandonment of efforts to persuade people to
abstinence, and putting the entire reliance on the enforcement
of the law."
This analysis is clear, and should help to guide congress, and
all groups that seek to exercise influence in congress, as it pro
ceeds to establish a new system of federal control.
It is evident that excesses
extreme and uncompromising drys nor extreme and uncompro
mising wets can have their way, if the new plan is to succeed.
It miiBt be tolerant, without undue laxity. It must be geared
to suit the moderates the middle-of-the-road people and to
persuade people to temperance rather than compel them. Other
wise it cannot win the popular aupport necessary for success.

A THOROUGH HOLBEt LEANING.
Voilva of Zton City or some such
place was never more convincing than
when he reiterated his belief that the
world la fist,
when he return
ed from s trip
around the world.
At that, my con
fidence in the
globular hypothe
sls and gravity
and the economy
of the democratic
form of govern- i
ment has waver
ed since Profes
sor Einstein discovered that science
is fallible.
Chances are the reader thinks I
mean a physic of some kind, or If
the reader la advanced beyond the
almanac grri and well along In
high school or college course In nos
trums and quackery he may think I
mean an "internal bath," when I
speak of thorough housecleanlng.
Speaking of housecleanlng, isn't
It rather a quaint custom? Doesn't
it belong on the same ahelf with
old-fashioned dusting with feather
duster and dry sweeping and having
a cellar filled with ashes each spring
and cinder paths and dirt roads and
the corner saloon?
The modern, aanltary, hygienic,
healthful Idea Is to keep clean and
no annual or semi-annual houseclean
lng will be needed.
The reason why my sympathies are
toward Voilva ts that I still believe
there is no such poisoning as "auto
intoxication" in the sense commonly
understood; there is no good evidence
that normal waste products or the
products of bacterial growth (fer
mentation and putrefaction) in the
colon are absorbed back into the
blood, save In a few rare Instances of
grave complete obstruction where
nothing but surgical relief can save
life. I maintain without fear of com
petent contradiction, that "autoin
toxication" In the popular sense of
the term does not happen, no mat
ter what the state of the bowel func
tion may be.
Yet any one with an elementary
knowledge of physiology knows that
the waste products of the body must
be eliminated or excreted through the
various excretory organs, which are
chiefly the lungs, the kidneys, the
liver, and least Important of all, the
colon. Excretion through the . skin
Is practically negligible. The secre
tion of sweat la for the purpose of
cooling the body and not for the
purpose of "throwing off poisonous
wastes."
The waste products of the body,
In health or in illness, are In the

Subsistence Requirements and Excess
Expenditures.
I will take for example a man who
spends S3200. Twelve hundred dol
lara of this amount should be sllow
ed for "eubslstence requirements"
and the balance would come under
the head of "excess expenditures."
In the above example the 2000 "ex
cess expenditures" Indlcatea ability to
pay taxes and that amount of that
man'a expenditures ahould be taxed.
But we cannot tax "excess expendi
tures" without taxing that prt ??
subsistence requirements" that la
spent for commodities. We hsve al
ready found that a poor man, or a
man of moderate Income, epends one
fourth of hla Income for ahelter on
which he paya a 30 per cent tax.
Now If thla poor man or man of
moderate Income waa given an off
set In tax exemption on ahelter oe
could then well afford to pay a ssles
tax on his other expenditures of two
or three per oent. Then and only
then would a tales tax become a
fair and Juat tax.

Old Doctor Fogy.
You will note that the ambulant
treatment of hernia is a dangerous
procedure. Here's a hospital superin
tendent who says so. R. J.
Answer R. J. sends a clipping of
what appears to be a medical query
column conducted by a physician who
heralds himself as superintendent of
a hospital. Of the Injection treat
ment of hernia he says there Is the
possibility of puncturing the intes
tines In the hernal sac and introduc
ing infection. Thus the eminent su
perintendent betrays his Ignorance of
the method he condemns. If there
is a loop of Intestine, or anything
else In the hernal sac, no Injection
la given. It would be aa reasonable
for me to say that In the standard
hernia operation there is the possi
bility of puncturing the intestine in
the hernia aac and introducing Infec
tion. Pretty Bad.
Kindly state your opinion of the
reaction of carbon monoxide gas poi
soning on the human system and

Answer It Is not a question of
opinion. Carbon monoxide In any
quantity combines with the hemo

stronger affinity than oxygen has. It
prevents the blood from carrying oxy
