Editorial Correspondence SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 13. This is another Friday the 13th. But the sun still shines in a cloudless sky, the ocean just across the highway is as blue and calm as Crater Lake, the stream of cars goes steadily by headed for respectively, Conditions in quarantine are rather better than they have been. But if any misfortune does occur it will be blamed on Friday the 13th. blaming President Hoover for ture. Even Homer Nods. Even 'Will Rogers can pull a boner, today's of fcring Mr. Rogers remarks : Why this administration wants to stick in there till the last dog is hung and take this punishment is hard to under stand. It's like a troup of actors getting hissed off the stage, but insisting on staying on there because they had a two weeks' contract." ' To our mind that isn't funny and it certainly isn't true. If President-elect Roosevelt had wished to take office on January first, it is an open secret President Hoover would gladly have resigned along with his Secretary of State, and made it pos sible. But Roosevelt explicitly stated he did not wish to as sume office before March 4 he felt that allowed him no more than sufficient time to prepare for the task before him. Nor is that hissing the actors a correct analogy. What hiss ing is going on hits one party Democrats have control in the senate. President Hoover is doing all he can to accomplish something before, his term expires, but the Democrats are de termined to make any accomplishment impossible. The blame for inaction rests not upon Hoover, who can only INITIATE legislation, but upon congress, which has the power1 to PASS it. ,We have read Will Rogers' daily is the first time ws have ever felt' impelled to heave a brickbat at it. He has not ALWATS been accurate; ho has not AL WAYS been funny, but he has until today ALWAYS BEEN ONE OR THE OTHER usually both. Perhaps Friday the 13th was too much for him. We have been informed by mail, wire and phone of condi tions in Medford, the burden of communications being "L is popping up here." Sorry to be away at such an INTEREST ING time but just now it can't be helped. Our only advice is don't get too excited and let disease from whioh the valley suffers was contracted some time ago, and largely due to the depression, grew into a deep seated infection, but it, like all other infections, will eventually wear itself out. Meanwhile, there is and we believe a vast majority gether behind those officials who baloo and get busy doing some must be, donel ELK CREEK MUSI A Jury In Justice of the Peace W. R. Coleman's court Saturday after noon returned verdlot awarding D. E. Hutchinson a verdict for 225, .ought In his suit agalnat School District No. 74, on Elk oreek.

In a lantern - elide lecture on , Esethtlc Plastic Surgery given In the Pan-Paclf lc Surgical Conference at I Honolulu, Dr. Her-! bert Barnes of Los Angeles said that theoretically sur gery can never be scarless, but prac tically It may be so. By this he meant that Inci sions may be ren dered Invisible by hiding them with in areas covered by hair, or with in orlficial . sur faces, or by blending thera with the normal folds of the skin In accord ance with Its gralnc c lines of mus cular tension. - The author went on to outline the technique of scarless surgery, and we mention a few of the points he em phasized : 1. The Incision through the skin should be vertical, not slar.tlng, for the vertical Incision permits even coaptation of the edges of "the wound, where a slanting Incision favors over-rld-lng. 2. All tension of approxima tion of wound edges must be carried by the fascia, none by the skin. 3. Sutures should be tied loose ly. 3. Fixation and splinting are Important, to safeguard the newly created form whHe healing takes place. 6. A wet dressing Is prefer able for the first 24 hours. Af ter that a dry dressing. 6. Early removal of sutures, usually In from 24 to 48 hours, to prevent a rosary of stitch marks. 7. Artistlo or soulptural tal ent in planning the operation and executing It. The same author, in a contribution to California and Western Medicine (August, 1030) offers this excellent suggestion for the treatment of facial disfigurement In automobile acci dents, chiefly by flying glass. The worlds are deep, ragged and diffi cult to sterilize. A wet dressing should be applied for the first 24 hours, leaving the open wounds to drain. Next day, the wounds may be stitched or otherwise coapted, when It Is possible to have better align ment, less swelling, less danger of in fection or the retention of glass, oil or dirt in the wound. If such' wounds are Immediately stitched there Is like ly to be more scar formation from subsequent swelling, distortion of surfaces, small stitch abscesses, or particles of glass, grease or other for- elgty.roaterlal burled In a wound. In closing any wound the use of The last will and testament of the late P. V. Medynskl, for nearly 40 years a resident of this city, and one of its largest property owners, was filed Saturday In the oounty clerk's office for probate. Ths will desig nates Orris Crawford of the First Na tional bank a. administrator, and further names Attorney T. J. Enrlght as counsel. The estate la listed at the "probable value of 60.000." The will provides that 150 per month be paid a daughter, Etta Me dynskl Moss, for lite, from the In come of the estate, and bequeaths to Mural B. Lofttus, a summer home snd lot at Pelican Bay.

I am 62 years of age and quite vigorous.- I am accustomed to take a cold bath every morning, from which X enjoy a reaction of warmth and well being. Recently our physician, spoke rather disparagingly of the practice for persons over middle age. How can I teBt the matter and decide whether to continue or discontinue the morning cold bath? (C. W.) Ana. Why change your habit, as long aa you enjoy such excellent health? Your physician la right about the practice, as a general rule. But you are an exception to the rule, evi dently. Like King Oustav of Sweden, wno atlll plays a good game of ten nis, which Is too strenuous for most men past middle age. They Call It Science We found In our General Science class that water will boll at a lower temperature If the pressure Is raised. Will It boll In a vacuum? (E. W.) Ans. Water bolls and evaporates at tne lowest temperature when the air pressure Js reduced to the lowest possible degree. One full year of every tiiga school course should be devoted to the study of Physics. This superficial nonsense called "General Science" is a sorry surrender of edu cation to Jazz. The Last Symphony Whatever became of the Brady Sym phony which so many of your fans used to rave about? We haven't seen any mention of It In your column for the longest time. But we want you to know we atlll play the Brady sympnony at our. house and I believe wo have kept quite fit, thanks to it and you. (Miss G. M.) Ana. The printing and dlatrlbn tlon of the piece costs money and owever, anyone who feels the need since the depression hit us we have neon compelled to retrench a bit. of a good system of exercises to fol low at home, to keep from going flabby, may send a dime and a stamped envelope bearing his address and ask lor a copy of the Last Brady Symphony. Try It over on your met abolism and If you don't like It, present It to some lazy duffer who needs it. (Copyright, John P. Dills Co.)

HERO IN FIRE 4 REPLENISHED FOR RELIEF OPERATION The county court .Saturday trans acted considerable routine business with County Judge Fehl and Com missioners Nealon and Billings In at tendance. Funds were voted for the tem porary operation of the county relief commissary. Arrangements were made to have William Brlggs Jr., of Ashland, who will be. In Salem next week, as "a friend- of the court," to urge the passage of the emergency act, to be Introduced authorizing the transfer of 950,000 from the sinking fund of $221,000 for relief work. The bud get committee appropriated $34,000 for relief, with the proviso that It be expended on road work. This sum is not available at this time. The matter of the Talent-Ashland route change In the Pacific highway, la still under debate. Q. M. Green, manager of the Ashland Tidings, Saturday presented a resolution ask ing that the route surveyed by the state highway commissioners be ap proved. A delegation. of Talent citi zens asked that changes be made In the survey. A hearing was held Thursday on the road change. Commissioner Bill ings was the only member of the county court present. County Judge Fehl and Commissioner Nealon re mained at the courthouse, to hear the "indignation protests." It had been previously announced and agreed, that all the county court would be at the road hearing. Com missioner Nealon refused to attend, "because they (the demonstrators) will say, I ran from them." County Judge Fehl remained for the "dem onstration." The district attorney's arncft was also requested to attend the road hearing, but Instead re mained In the courthouse. . it is probable that another hearing will be called o' the proposed high way changes. The county court also yesterday, issued a call for bids, for the fur nishing of gasoline for all county motor vehicles, and tf.gneii no. agr3 ment with the state highway com mission for the maintenance of sec ondary highwc; in the county.

Those officers who have not yet been Installed will be Installed on that date and the new officers will have charge of the meeting. Cora- I mlttees will be announced and the work of another two year term be gun. There has probably been no time In the history of the Grange when the farmers of the country needed the loyal support and cooperation of the Grange more than they do to day. Officers, committeemen, and members should all unite In working out a constructive program of bene fit to the farmer. This Is the es sential ,need for this year. The master of each subordinate Grange should do all in his power to interest his members in the. value of the Pomona. Evefy active Grang er should belong to the Pomona. Every active committeeman should belong to the Pomona. The dues are so low that any Granger, no matter how hard hit by the depres slon, can afford to pay them. The dues are fifty cents a year, or a fraction over four cents a month. To save gas, several neighbors could come In one car. The Initiation fee is fifty cents. Members, however, can attend the Pomona Grange and receive many of its benefits without becoming mem bers'. It Is well worth the trip to hear the discussions on the various measures and to know first hand what your Pomona Grange is doing for you. May we urge each subordinate master to try to keep up the mem bership dues of his members in the Pomona Grange. Each master has a list of his Pomona members and the time to which they are paid up.
