SANTA BARBARA, Cal., Jan. 9. Once upon a time, greens
fees at the Montesito golf course were $3 per day over week
ends, $2.50 at other times. Now they are $1 at any time. Ca
the hill there still stands a typically splendiferous club house
with dining rooms, ball rooms, locker rooms, tennis courts and
gardens adjoining. Membership and initiation fees were from
$2000 up, when the club house opened. The memberships gave
golfing privileges and club privileges, but hard times came,
memberships were assessed, so many members dropped out
that this magnificent private club is now virtually a public golf
course, and just bow the organization is coming out no one
seems to know, A disaster for the club and its members; bat a
blessing to the golfing rank and file, who can play over a
wonderful 18 hole course, with marvellous greens, get a cheap
luncheon if they wish, and also if they wish play without a
caddy and in their suspenders. So the world wags on and great
changes come.
Penhaps this ifontecito golf course is a symbol of what the
world is going thru, and vAet the future has in store. Undoubt
edly the original investment voill be a loss,' a wealthy minority
will have to take that loss, but the net outcome will be better
golf at less expense for more people. T trust that such a
symbol, doesn't ivolve a prophecy that is unduly optitoistic,
In our last offering we declared that in our opinion the only
revolution this country is going, to suffer, has already started,
and it is essentially a revolution in thought, and ideas. No one
is thinking tbu way they did two and three years ago; current
ideas are expressed in entirely
For example here in Santa
people have started a building
They have decided to remodel their homes and in some instances
build new ones, spending approximately $500,000. They don't
need new homes, nor remodelled homes, but they can use them,
they can get the work done at reduced cost,' and they regard
the investment as a duty of good citizenship, giving work to
those who need it, reducing unemployment, and delaying what
ever benefit they may derive until some fature time.
These same people we venture to say, would have met such
a suggestion in 1029, as entirely preposterous. This is an ex
tremely mild exnmplo of the change in the point of view, but
It is an example. Those who read a recent article by Colonel
House in Liberty are familiar with another example. Colonel
House makes statements there and offers suggestions, which ten
years ago would have classified him as a radical and a Bolshe
vik. Now radical ohanges are accepted as a matter of course.
Tonight in Los Angeles ocours a debate on Technocracy be
tween Lincolun Steffens, and the editor of the Los Angeles
tabloid, the News. Believe it or not Mr. Steffens, a few years
ago regarded and rightly so, as a Liberal with a capital "L"
is taking the conservative side of the argnmont. He is opposing
Technocracy, the editor is supporting it. Certainly a striking
example of the distance we have covered in two or three years,
in this peaceful and to many imperceptible revolution. Tho
radical of 1929 is the conservative of 1932.
So get ready for big changes politically and economically
in the next few years. They are coming coming soon and com
ing with s bang. Only stupid or cowardly people, will bemoan
rthis development. Sensible and
glad that the revolution should
form adopted in so many other
larly in Russia. '

WHEN A COUOB
Before we get Into a dispute about
the subject let's be sure you know
as much about the function or pur
pose of the dia
phragm as I do
right now I have
every reason to
doubt you know
enough, about
this to under
stand what we're
talking about.
Briefly, then.
the diaphragm Is
an Important
muscle, voluntary
muscle but chief
ly under auto.
under automatlo (autonomic sym
pathetic) control, elastic, dome-
shaped, placed like a tarpaulin be
tween the abdomen and the thorax.
When the diaphragm contract it
pushes, or squeezes down on the
stomsch, liver and other organs and
pushes out or expends the belly. At
the same time It tends to enlarge
the capacity of the chest cavity and
that causes air to enter the lungs.
So when the diaphragm contract we
inspire or take In. air. Then the dia
phragm relaxes, rests, and the air
rushes out of the lungs or Is expired,
wholly through the elastlo recoil of
diaphragm, lungs, chest wall, belly
and not from any muscular effort.
When you sigh you relax everything
and enjoy a grand rest for a moment
but unconsciously Just before the
sigh you exert yourself to draw In a
deeper, longer breath to elgb with.
Hiccough or hiccup Is a peculiar
modification of Inspiration. It Is
spasmodic contraction of the dia
phragm accompanied with epasmodto
contraction of the larynx. It is no
more a cough than a gasp Is a yell.
Ten years sgo Dr. Brian Sword (an
anethetlst, not a surgeon) follow
ing a suggestion msde by Prof. Tan-
dell Henderson found that the ad
ministration of Inhalations of csr
bon dloxid gss with air or with oxy
gen, gave much relief to patients
suffering from the abdominal dis
tention that follows many operations.
Prof. Henderson had also shown that
carbon dloxid stimulates peristalsis
the rythmic wave motions by whlcn
the content of the alimentary tract
are propelled. Retarded peristalsis
seems to arouse or stimulate or Irri
tate the phrenic nerve which controls
the action of the diaphragm. Peris
talsis 1 tremendously retarded by the
business and control this difficulty
which has developed, else they are
net equipped to transact the county
business.
Jsckson county want no more
plain old "horse-play." The voters are
becoming disgusted with somebody or
other nobody seems to know exactly
who It Is though and they want ac
tion, not mob action, but court ac
tion. Let th T'lrta pass as quickly aa
possible on .the Nealon appointment,
If this is desired. Though 111-advlsed.
It no doubt is legal.
However, the two Mgularly elected
court members must devote their at
tention to county business and each
must recognize the authority and
right of the other without discord
snd showmanship. County affaire
need this attention.
Mob or marchers should remain at
home until the legality and status of
the county court personnel la estab-
llahed and until the members duly
qualified or duly appointed thereto
demonstrate whether or not tbey In
tend to transact county business or
whether they consider internal frlo
tton and Inaction more Important
than the regular routine of county
business. Ashland Tidings. ,

Cervical Distress.
Will you not comment briefly on
the picture, "Life Begins." for the
benefit of a number of ua women,
some married and some not a yet
married? Mrs. H. 9. C.
Answer That sort of movie hokum
gives anyone who knows anything
about childbirth and the way hos
pitals are conducted a pain In the
neck. The whole story told by the
picture is sn absurd and pernicious
misrepresentation which no intelli
gent community should tolerate.
Freezing Freckles.
Plesse advise the best and aafest
treatment for freckles on the face.
R. O. T.
Answer The let-alone treatment Is
safest. Bleaches and chemicals that
cause peeling of the ekln are dlssp
pnlntlng and painful. Freezing with
carbon dioxide snow Is almost pain
less and gives satisfactory result In
the bands of the skilled physician.
None but a skilled and RESPONSIBLE
physician can give such treatment
successfully. One hundred freckles
msy be disposed of at a sitting, every
eight or 10 days.

Coolldge taught management of

box. Every time he opened It to get
one grasshopper, two or three other
