Clear, cool, everything washed clean. De lightful. Motored out to Santa Monica in search of the Ben Sheldons. After two hours and a half of starting and stop ping, during which three service stations, two real estate of fices, two postoffices and four grocery stores were consulted, finally found they lived in Los Angeles not far from the Fox studio and the Rancho golf club. Found where they live but didn't find them. Everyone no doubt was out taking advan tage of the first clear day in a week, just as we were. Motored down Wilshire boulevard and called on Mrs. C. S. Newhall, who is spending the winter here with her mother, Mrs. Storey. Met a woman there who told of the many hold ups and robberies in L. A. She had a new one. A local law yer, noted for his love of argument and skill in it, drove with his wile into his garage the other night and had an automatic shoved in his ribs with the put up his hands and then started to talk. (Jewish, no doubt.) In spite of warnings to shut up or take it, he kept on argu ing. Believe it or not, the gunman wag either Convinced that he was in the wrong pew or wished to escape from the ha rangue, for he put down his gun and beat it. . That man could get a job as a cook anytime in some millionaire's home, at high wages, but probably his law business pays in spite of the hard times, with a tongue like that. Holdup men inva riably enter the kitchen ?irst. Lunched at the famous Brown Derby, where Wallace Becry's trout are served and the movie stars are wont to dine. The place was packed with other visitors who came for the same purpose with the result that we looked at the other visitors and the other visitors star in Bight. The youngest member of the party thought she saw Jean Harlow, then Greta Qarbo, then John Barrymore, then there was a girl who looked like Jean, another looked like Qarbo. and the TOune man resembled Barrymore. But the waiter assured ub they were just no one in particular, merely individuals made up in the Harlow, Qarbo and Barry more manner. It's all very amusing. In Hollywood and its onvirons, one can meet at least a thousand Harlows on the street platinum blondes with a little hat set over one ear, and a pouting expression hovering over a Cupid bow mouth.

NERVOUS WRECKS ACCUSE THE Inspired by philanthropy the con ductor of this train of thought re cently lost sight of tact and per spicacity for a day . or two and presented so me rather raw, un varnished truths about "nervous, ness" or "weak nerves." The mo tive of these talks about ner vous Imposition was to lighten the burden car ried by the vic tims of neuras thenia or at least to offer them our sympathy. The victims, we must ex plain to our dumb readers, are those who suffer from the Imposition. These frank discussions of the racket have elicited a characteristic reaction. On the one hand the con ductor has collected a aeries of let ters of putative parentage containing some of the finest bllllngstage he has yet procured for his scrapbook. On the other hand,- no less than three victims of nervous Imposition have written to expreu their thanks, r "What X admire most about your column 1 your straight from the shoulder ... a sister who Is 'nervous' . . . brother and I have a merry life with her -tantrums ... she thinks you're the bunk ; . , " The nervous sister who Is 84 inches tall and weighs 115 pounds ass a re ducing obsession, and Insists that her plumper sister adhere to the same starvation diet she chooses, going Into one of her tantrums whenever ahe finds or suspects the victim of the Imposition of sneaking any addi tional food. Sounds more like men tal aberration. A practitioner of nervous Imposi tion writes: - "Your article saying that neu rotic adults are merely spoiled ohildren Is Inhumane. , . . There are hundreds of different things that can affect the nervous sys tem, and not being made of bricks and mortar of course hu man beings cannot stand the strain of life quite so well as brick buildings. ... If I sought your advice and you called me dishonest I'd surely drag you In an alley and wallop you good We have a convenient alley back of the playroom for the use of our cus tomers. The conductor will be pleased to tell anybody at any time that What purports to be neurasthe nia, weak nerves, exhausted nerves, nerve fatigue or nervous breakdown THREE YEAR JOLT GIVEN SARGENT ON AUTO PARTTHEFTS (Continued from Page One) Earl Hanscomb, found guilty of non support, and whose affairs have been a welfare problem for months, was given 30 days probation, "to .Tee If you will do anything towards sup porting your child." Hanscomb blamed the depression for his inability to sc our work. The court said "I feel that It la your mental attitude as you are aa able-bodied, and have as much ability, aa other men. in worse posi tion, who are supporting their fam ily." The court contended that Hans com due to domestic troubles and the depression "had the wrong slant." Tt developed that Assistant District Attorney Nellson had personally ad vanced 0.&b to Hanscom, on a watch "to help him out." T. L. Ward of Sagle Point, made good the loan, and the court ordered that the same be turned over to the grandmother of the child. Rolf Paroled Relnhard A. Rolf of Central Point, found guilty of Involuntary man slaughter for the accidental slaying of his hunting companion, Joseph St. Germain. In mistake for a bear, last October, was sentenced to one year In the state prison and fined $1. And was then granted an immediate pa role, on the icommendatton of the Jury. Rolf promised the court he "would never hunt again." Mrs. St. Germain, widow of the hunt tragedy victim waa in court, to plead In hli behalf. The court said It had no Juris diction to revoke a hunting license for life. Pawlngof sentence ipon Luther (Toots) Crosby and Vtrgll (Dodo, Burnett. Ashland youths, who plead guilty to robbing the J. C. Penney Co. store there last summer was deferred for one week, by the ecurt. The dis trict attorney's office mad a recom mendation for leniency for the two youths, on the grounda they were ,n fluenced by "Buck Wilson who was older and had ft prison record in this state and Washington." Wilson wm discharged last week, when the court ordered a directed verdict of not guil ty, on a leral technicality. Wilson waa charged with receiving goods stolen from the store. Attorney R. R. Kelly made a plea for Crosby, and said If a suspended sentence waa given, Crosby had a chance work in California mine, or an Idaho ranch. Counsel said the "Idaho farmer want th young man to work and be under hla observa tion for ft year, before he raises hla objections to Crosby's marriage to his daughter. Aasiatant District Attorney Nellson said that Crosby, "only last week was urged to mak ft false affidavit to atelp out Buck Wilson, and refused. He further stated, "there la nothing vicious about either Crosby or Bur nett, but they are too easily in Cue need," CONDUCTOR OF WRECKING 'EM Is eaither deception of the patient by the doctor or deception of patient by himself or deception of the public by both of them. This Is a conces sion that In a minority of cases the practitioner of the imposition hon estly believes It is some actual weak- enlng or exhaustion of his or her hypothetical "nerve energy (of course physiology recognizes no suoh force or energy), strength, energy, power, vigor, vitality, endurance, re sist nee, pep, or whatever name you prefer to give It, la neither produced in or by, nor expended by nerves, brain or other elements of the nerv ous system.

Answer. There Is no difference. No one can tell whether a specimen of blood Is from a person of a par ticular race. The only difference be tween whites and members of any other race Is In the relative quantity of pigment under the skin. Deodorant Efficient deodorant, harmless to plumbing, to use in a septic tank. (O. C. O.) Ana. A correctly constructed and well planned cess pool or septic tank should give little or no bad odor. The use of a deodorant Is likely to defeat the natural bacterial action of the tank. However, an occasional flush ing of the drain with a gallon of water containing a tablespoon of 'chloride of lime" (from a freshly opened can of chlorinated lime) may serve your purpose. Sleep As You Like What Is the best position for sleep? (Mrs. J. F. T.) Ana. Whatever position you nat ually assume or find comfortable. Curled up. stretched out. On either side, or prone or supine.

If I can't ofrer them anything else, I'll see that they get some music." Th visit and compliments of Vic Meyers may have disturbed the heart action of the feminine clerks of he house, bxit the actual work turned out today, suffered not a bit. In fact, according to Blaine McCord, clerk of lclsaltion and rules, there was the greatest volume of bills stuffed Into the hopper today, since the session opened. That doesn't necessarily mean there were more bills, although there were approximately 30. But It does mean, the bills are getting longer and fun nier. One bill today was over 30 pages In length.

RELIEF KITCHEN PAYS DIVIDENDS IN CRIME CHECK Lions' Shelter Removes Urge to Petty Thieving by Hungry Members to Dine at Kitchen Tuesday Interest In the community kitchen and shelter sponsored by the Medford Lions' 'club continues to grow, as re ports of the project from both the sponsors and recipients show tbe fine work being done, ever since the open ing of the kitchen November 7. Chief of Police CI atom McCredle, In commenting on Medford's unusual freedom ltom-pey thievery by trans tents, gives credit to the community kitchen and shelter for this fine record. He pointed out when a man comes Into the city cold, tired and hungry and Is given a warm meal and a place to sleep, he arises in the morning rested, and to a certain extent, contented In that he la warm and has been fed, and goes on his way without having resorted to the common practice of back door thievery, picking up of small articles to sell, and the annoying of house wives by begging at their doors for food. Attention was also called to the fact that as a matter of local pro tection, to say nothing of the hu manitarian side, it Is good business to support the kitchen and shelter. Crime at Minimum. The amount of crime or petit lar ceny by transients was cut to the very minimum during the past three months, with a record of virtually every such offense showing It to have been committed by local residents. With more than 3300 meals served since November 7 and over 1100 per sons given shelter for a night since December 7. it has been possible be cause of contributions from various sources, to operate at a cost of 4 cents per meal. There Is no person receiving wages all activities are conducted by vol untary workers. But a great problem confronts the sponsors in the matter of the payment of $26.50 monthly rental for the building. Try Meals Tuesday. Oeorge Prescott and Lei and Brophy, at the Allied Welfare meeting Friday, asked the assistance of the public xor this work, through the purchase of books of meal tickets to be given out to the needy and which entitle the purchaser to a certain amount of labor from the recipients. Tuesday local. Lions' club members and any one else who cares to at tend will buy their noon meal at the community kitchen with a two-fold purpose to acquaint themselves find others with every feature of this re lief activity-and to add to the alarm ingly depleted funds for carrying on the work. 1 ( Jenkins Comment (Continued from Page one Ailments of the heart, you will note, lead the list, and what la true in Oregon In this respect is true of the country as a whole not merely for last year, but EVERY YEAR, Heart disease Is the principal cause of death In this country, year after year.

Pullen in Ford 8 Sets Economy Mark on Historic Course tjee f Revisiting the old Santa Monica Rsce Coarse where he won the Grand Prix Championship in 1914. Eddi Pullen set a new mark for Ford V-8 economy on January 13, 1933. "Demonstrating that the V-8 Ford gives remarkable oil and gasoline economy even alter 54,000 miles, Eddie Pullen, noted racing driver, drove his famous Ford V-8 test car for 147 miles around the historic Santa Monica race course on Janu ary 13th to average 21 4 miles per gallon of gasoline. This perform- ance virtually duplicates the splen ilid economy records established by Pullen last July in the same car when he drove 33,000 miles in 33 davs in the heart of the MnUv Desert," said C E. Gates, local Ford dealer. As a strange contrast to the day in 1914 when Pullen won the Grand Prix Championship over the same course at the then astounding speed of 77 miles per hour, his latest drive was strictly as an economy test. Seven gallons of gasoline were poured into a dry tank and Putlcn drove 147 miles before the car stopped for lack of gasoline.
