. WILL IT LEA VB A SCAR?
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

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Brr-rh-rh-rh!
I am a pastor of a village church.
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.)

since the depression hit us we have

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

Funds were voted for the tem

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

ment with the state highway com

Pomona Orange
The Pomona Orange meets Satur
day, January 28, In an all day meet
ing, beginning at 10 a. m. The Roxy
Ann Grange will act as host, the
place of the meeting to be an
nounced later.
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.
