Editorial Correspondence
HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Jan. 26. A day of sunshine yester
day for a change. 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.
Joan, is still all the rage, apparently.
Finally Wallace Beery did come in with three friends and
take a seat near the door. Crowds demanded autographs, as
he bowled in smiling and bowing. He gave them, sat down
with fists on both knees and looked around, continuing to
smile. We have a hunsh he has a financial interest in the
place but maybe not. Also the maid to Garbo in Grand Ho
tel waltzed in with a young man who may have been her son,
and may not, Very smart and chic looking. But that was all.
Not much of a show. As people only eat at the Brown Derby
to see movie stars, the management should do better than that.
The prloes are high enough.
One by-product of the depression that is all to the good
should be noted. .; It has imprpved manners tremendously,
particularly those of head waiters and hotel clerks. They' no
longer look through tourists from the sticks, and in a haughty,
bored fashion, Inquire if "you have reservations, and if you
haven't, act like members of the blood royal who have had to
stoop to vulgar convorso with a commoner. No they are all
very pleasnnt and affable, and are after the business no matter
from what source it may come. .
Had a phone call from the. Al Carpenters who have just
arrived to visit relatives in Pasadena. They were lucky to get
out of Medford and over the mountains just before the recent
snow. Speaking of snow, the frequently mentioned young lady
is very sore." Snow in Medford the very BfcST weather
there, and the WORST down here." Yes, it is raining again
today. R. W. R.

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

who Is 'nervous' . . . brother and

The nervous sister who Is 84 inches

the Imposition of sneaking any addi

A practitioner of nervous Imposi
tion writes:
- "Your article saying that neu

"would never hunt again." Mrs. St.

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

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

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

objections to Crosby's marriage to

Aasiatant District Attorney Nellson
said that Crosby, "only last week was
urged to mak ft false affidavit to

He further stated, "there la nothing

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
We're All Human Under the Skin
. Kindly explain the difference be
tween negro blood and white blood.
(C. C.)
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. Just avoid
placing the arms In an awkward or
strained position. Pillow or two or
none as you proper. Head moderately
flexed- chin In crown high;

"i'm like the postman, who, on a
vacation visits all the postoffices,"
asserted the jaBz-orchestra-1 leu tenant
governor, In an interview later. "I go
on a trip and CAn't resist visiting the
capitol buildings."
"This Is Just an Inspirational good
will tour," he explained. "I happened
to be down at Vancouver, Washing
ton on business, so I thought I'd
come the rest of the way and extend
greetings from our legislature to
yours.'
Pulling on his dark blue overcoat
preparatory to a hurried return trip
north, he added:
"I hope some of the Oregon boys
will come up our way and put their
feet on our desks some time. 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.

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.

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. During
the 4H hours of driving, 47 bystand
ers hailed the car and rode the
length of the course which today
Includes some of Santa Monica's
busiest streets.
