Every man to his own Ustss. A movie magazine produces a picture of Korma Sheerer, with a bulldog In her lap, and her gent escort holding one of the bulldog's paws. They are seat ed on a piazza, and nobody In sight. The Worthy Poor, with a patience that is sublime, continue to get the worst of things, while the Profession al Poor, and Wandering ' Indigents, temporarily halted, fatten. What the Worthy Poor need Is a few politicians and orators on their side. There will be no change until they do. WHY PIONEEBS SMILED (Pendleton East Oregonlan) As the magnificent boat, launched in the Umatilla river near the bridge, touched the water the bills on the opposite - bank of the river echoed with the reverberations of the booming cannon or, more properly speak ing, an old hone pistol In the hands of one of our most proml .' nent citizens. This salute near ly turned the Joyful scene Into a picture of woe and grief, the old h. p. kicking so hard that the most p. .e. was knocked out of time and rolled down the bank to the river below. (00 Yrs. Ago Ool.) Hoi hum! hoi The Rogue River Fish bill Is once more commanding the deep thought and earnest en deavor of the legislature. Mo one rom these parts got a furlough, and marched to Salem to fight for It. ' Tomus Waterman of Vermont has beoome a chess addict. Chess Is a lively game, A good player will only look 30 minutes at a Bishop, before . moving a Oastle. Ohess Is a good alibi for a sitting contest. - Under a new Oregon law, one who kills a wolf gets halt as much In coin a country school tepoher gets In a month. There Is, however, nothing to prevent the school teacher from killing a wolf during recess, or on her way to or from school. Alice Bluebird, who was evicted from several nests last summer, and was oaught breaking Mrs. Robin's eggs on a number of occasions, and has a long criminal record, Is back on parole. Police report shs has been tinging Inflammatory songs. The spade and the fishing pole bave been prematurely removed from the woodshed. The Older Girls have not started housecleanlng, at least none of the brutes they married have started having spurious attacks of lumbago. The more on reads about Governor Aieler, the more convinced one be comes he will finish his present term as the best governor Oregon ever had. He wants to put people to work however painful It may be to those yelling loudest for It because there Is Bono; he Is not politically hysterical, and has not become Infatuated with fancy notions to have the printing presses spout bogus money, to make the Depression worse. HERO WORSHIP Once upon a time there was a Hero, who decided to save everything and everybody. He made speeches. He talked on the slightest provocation. Me told the farmers how abused they were, and promised to reduce Taxes. He discovered the prejudices of the people, and stroked them till they purred. He shook hands. He wore a martyred look. He posed as the Boy Upon the Burning Deck, and Special Agent of the Lord. He fretted about the Pate of the Common Man, and told the womenfolks he was brave. The people, wise In the ways of politicians, called him one. Mow this made our Hero so mad he squealed, and broke his little finger pounding a desk, In his comic rage. He was so mad he wanted to take the people by the seat of the pants ' and throw tiiem Into Rogue river with the fishes. And this gave him a new Idea. He began to cuss the people to blaspheme and scold and deride them, and their form of gov ernment, and their Constitution, sad all their works. And some of the people cried I "Oh, halnt he wonderful 1" And, some never regslned con sciousness, until after they had drop ped knelr last dime In tea bat. Editorial Correspondence .

Claude works seven days a week, assisted by Mrs. Cate, in fact Sunday is often the big day, for then more people motor down to that part of the country. Claude wanted the low down on Medford, he has been a steady reader of the Mail Tribune, ever since he left the valley six or seven years ago. He said sion and strife during a political campaign, but he couldn't understand either why it continued after the campaign had ended, or why the people up "My heart is still up there way Mr. Cate explained it. there, and we only left. and health the doctors said she had to live in a lower altitude and a milder climate. But we have always wanted to go back there and make our permanent home, that is in the back of our minds all the time. BUT WHO THERE UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS. "I can't understand it. Give me the low-down. What is the matter up there t I can understand how a few agitators might want to keep, things stirred up for their selfish advan tage, but I can't understand any considerable number of people falling for it. They must be them, or it would stop. It can't Well, who cant We have on this trip,- and they are all in the same quandry. Anyone who gets out 'of the hulabaloo, and obtains a rational perspec tive, marvels that such a condition could exist anywhere in this country at the present time. The whole thing seems in credible. The most frequent explanation is to blame it on the depression. But isn't a depression when there is so much suffering and distress about should forget differences and among themselves f , i : As we told Claude he will have to consult wiser heads than ours. There are Wise men who know just WHAT caused this insufferable mess and just HOW to clear it up. We suggest they give Mr. Cate the low-down his mail address is Fullerton, California. We can only fall back upon the fundamental reasonableness and common Oregon, and the curative effect absolute faith, as we have that a cause that is based upon What is wrong and what is false, inevitably sows within itself the seeds of its own destruction. As we told Mr. Cate, the Mail Tribune will continue in the future, as it has in the past, to give its readers the facts, tell them the truth about every issue as it arises, and we are as certain that this policy will EVENTUALLY. WIN, as that the sun will come up tomorrow. For as everyone knows "truth crushed to earth will rise again, the eternal years of God are hers," and unless Abraham Lincoln was merely another "Polyanna," "YOU CAN'T FOOL ALL THE PEOPLE ALL THE TIME I" ...... , - : Incidentally, Jackson county's former county agent and we never had a better one ! has absolute faith in the comeback of the pear industry in Southern Oregon, and is confident that the high quality of the leadership and skill of orchard management up there, will assure the maximum prosperity, when prosperity in ANY department of agriculture or horticulture is possible. He regards a good cannery market as the most important fea ture of the industry. While the avacado industry is suffering, along with every thing else ; because of the limited supply, 50,000 acres eventual production is placed as the absolute limit in the entire United States the avacado growers even in a year like this, have been breaking even, and some have made money. It's the old law of supply and demand again. Prevailing market prices are about half what they were two or three years ago, but growers in Southern California enjoy a great advantage, for they sell SO percent of their output right in the state Los Angeles and San Francisco. ' Avacados are shipped to Chicago and New York I of course, some abroad. But rancher's doorstep so to speak. Imagine what a boon it would be to the pears growers in Medford, if they could sell half their crop in Grants Fass I This Cate tract, five miles long and three milos wido, is only an hour's motor trip from Pasadena in fact we made it in 50 minutes and thore was no speeding. Mr. Cate has his own tract of 23 acres, containing nearly 2000 trees and a building site high on the top of a hill, from which one can see half of Southern California. Over the tops of oil derricks, which dot the landscape down there, one can see the Pacifio ocean, Hollywood and Los Angeles, and moun tains east, west and south to the horizon. The avacados are not in full bearing as yet if they were the owner would not have to work seven days a week, when they ARE the Cate house will be built 1 The three Cate boys sre all in school or college, and during their vacations, needless to say, they work on the ranch, with papa to oversee them. The youngest (in school) has developed into quite a basketball star, and of course that makes Claude feel just terribly 1 We were taken all over the tract, and learned a good deal not only about avacados but oranges and lemons (the tract is in the center of the citrus and oil belt). No chance for oil however, the entire tract was tested out before the avacado boom started. "Give our best to everyone in Medford" said Claude and Mrs. Claude as we started back, and they stood waving from the tract office, until we were out of sight. B. W. R.

Briefly, &s on ur ologist describes it, the procedure constats ox the re moval of numer ous small sections of obstructing tissue through the cystoscope by means of a high frequency our- rent, thereby oo- vlatlng any ex ternal incision. This subject may be of Inter est to men past middle age. Others should skip It. In no Instance can sny reader obtain from this service any aid or comfort In the Interpret ing of symptoms or the diagnosis o: prostatic obstruction. All such In quiries or Investigations should be left wholly to the individual's per sonal physician. I have already apologised here, in. behalf If without behest of the pro fession, for the present standard pro cedure In these cases. Prostatcctomv In the best hands and under the most favorable auspices Is nothing to write to the papers about, unless you're young surgeon. On the receiving end of the line It Is quite as unpleasant to undergo as it Is to discuss at the dinner table. Personally, I am not at all averse to having a nice comSy little operation occasionally, san appendectomy or any little thing like that where one can dicker with the insurance people to fork over the wager In a lump sum. But even as a young man, In medicine, and with all my Invidious allusions to old fogies, old codgers, old geezers and old timers, I have always regarded the lot of the bladdery old gentleman with some feeling between aversion and smug detachment. Now I won der If a grown-up fellow can get as much quiet amusement watching youth mellow. Tet that is not the reason why I have studiously avoided the subject of this talk all these years. No. I have kept It out of this column be cause we have all kinds of readers and It Is necessary to maintain a reasonable balance on the cheery side. That's why testimonial writers get short shrift here and symptom hunters find this department barren. Somewhere there may be still liv ing a subscriber or two who can re call what a bitter, dogged struggle we had In popularising the diathermy method of dealing with Infected or hypertrophled tonsils. The brass throat specialists and their accom plices used every means and weapon. Flight 'o Time (Medford and Jackson County History from the Files of The Mall Tribune of 20 and 10 Years Ago.)

TIOV TO MODERNITY fair or foul, to defeat us and to de stroy those who "promoted" the new fangled method. But history tel.a which side was right. Upon the occasion of the formal Introduction of the successful adap tation of the new method in prac tice by Dr. John R. Caulk, before the last annual session of the American Medical association (section on urol ogy), some characteristic comments were made In the open discussion of the method by urologists whose knowledge and experience In the old Spanish methods are extensive. . First let us quote some of the views of leading urologists who have had experience with both the older dis section methods and the electro-sur gical method: Dr. Joseph 7. McCarthy of New York said: "The factors of safety as to life, conservation of mental ap proach, hospital domicile, mor bidity after hospitalization, and early return to customary duties are such as to justify me In ad vancing the opinion that in 00 per cent of cases in which pros tatic obstruction is already es tablished, whether' It la fibrosis, benign hypertrophy or a malig nant process, prostatectomy Is destined to become obsolete.

Good rule never to insert anything in ear canal Hot and Cold. which Is more cooling, a warm bath or a cold shower? Why should one take a warm shower Instead of a cold one after exercise? V, M.

By WILLIAM FIELDING OG BURN. Research Director. President's Com mittee on Recent Social Trends (Written for the Associated Press) The government should 'run Its business weU. It Is a large business, employing probably around 8.600,000 persons with about 800,000 elected of ficials and with more than 200,000 different units. During the past decade It has re quired approximately one-eighth of the total Income, and a much larger percentage during the depression. It concerns itself -with police and military protection safeguards health, cares for the sick fights crime, helps trade, encourages science, provides money, furnishes recreation, teaches our children, aids transportation, forecasts weather, provides Insurance, furnishes relief, aids employment, ad ministers Justice, makes roads, pro tects our forests In fact, no other business touches our lives at so many points or aids us in so many ways. Moreover, these activities have grown rapidly, in good times and in bad. There Is every reason to think this growth may continue In the fu ture. Efficiency Wanted. Management and technology have won brilliant victories In private In celved word Thursday that their bhother, Chris Edler of Trail, had been found dead at his home.

Waste has decreased. The problem of production Is almost solved. The government should be quick to Import the most modern de vices of efficiency In organization and technique. Indeed Its recent record against graft, corruption and inefficiency has been encouraging. But enormous gains are still possible. The problem is to make government change more easily and rapidly, in stead of clinging to the forms and precedents of the earlier rulers of a by-gone agricultural era. No farmer today would be content to use Thomas Jeffersons plow, but we do not seem to want to change his gov ernmental ideas. V Europe's Changes Quicker, It Is probably true that the gov ernments of Europe have changed much more rapidly than In the United States. Should government and business become more close in the future, and should the Issues which government deal with touch the lives of individuals and the In terest of business more Intimately, much more attention will be given to its affairs. How weU the public business Is run Is not wholly a matter of tools. It Is also a matter of the representation of Interests. Governmental action Is greatly speeded up when Interests are repre sented and when there Is unity of New Sino-Japanese Clash Centers on Jehol Control China sees In the newest Slno-Ja ginning of a campaign to annex Jehoi affected, and the leaders, Chang Hsiao - China and Gen. Nobuyoshl Muto (ier Manchukuo. (By the Associated Pres) The fresh Japanese -Chinese clash at Shanhalkwan has added to the troubles of Chang Hsiao-Liang, youth ful ex-war lord of old Manchuria. Driven from his patrimony after Japanese occupation of Mukden in September, 1031, Chang has for a year or more mode his headquarters In Pelplng. Nominally he was commander on behalf of the Nanking regime, of all northern China, Including Jehol and the new province of Charhar erected from the westward section of Inner Mongolia. The eastward section of that vaguely defined district went under Japanese Influence some time ago. Three months ago the Japanese frankly announced their intention to annex Jehol to the Infant state of Manchukuo and Chang has been under pressure from Nanking to resist such a move. A fortnight ago he let it be known that three picked bri gades had been ordered to the Jehol border. But. it now develops, the Japanese were already on the move.

There were naval units, too, off Shanhal kwan.
