(Heppner Mewi.) wherein a soiar 1. dlHU&sed rather flippantly. , It eeem. that the community, whose heretofore boasted culture ha. . ..... M.nUnMil much the oast 18 month., ha. reached the point where It desire. k ao umij. in quiring the sxposure of anger or lgnoranoa, or both. The .tyle .how li hltory, and the .tupendoua, spso tacular. and nerve-tlngUng hog ealllng contest Is upon us. There will alao be a panning contest. We are '' good at that, too. We have panned ourselves, and so has the rest of the stats. The OotO. has come out for Money and Momentum. The cream of the Momentum 1 found In the toe of a pair of plow shoes. The monev will come Itself." according to Henry Ford, who dlsouesed the situation on the 21st. It 1. not ad visable to put too much faith In hi. allegation that tha money will ar rive under It. own steam. It ha. never been muoh of a tourist. It la also proposed to "make 1B38 our most sggreselvs year." That teem. In the light of event, to be' what ailed 1S32. It there Is going to be any great amount of momentum. It .hould be regulated. Lat year the momentum was away from home, and 'towards the courthouse. The nog caller, will all be placed under bond.. ThU la to give the publlo a guarantee that they won't make any mistake, and call a mass meet ing. The fair MX are all out In then new spring hat., which for th. moat part are shaped like that Indigestible object of human struggling the pancake. They make the wearer look saucy, and now and then talk that way. The mode. a. the hat. are called, provide, no protection what soever from Old Sol, and thus Insure a good crop of freckle, on feminine phlazea. If they don't wash them In buttermilk three time, per diem. Owing to the Depression, the hate are reasonable and do not cost muoh more than a house. A road-hog who narrowly missed running down a tax-collector In a French village wis ducked In th. river by furlou. passers-by. That will teach the careless fellow not to mis. next time. (The Humorist, London.) Them are our aentlmenia. THE LOWLT SPUD From the plunder of Peru came the first potato. No priest or pirate of the conquest ever guessed that It would koi day drlv. German soldier. Into battle and Irish peas ant. Into famine. Nor could they know that It waa to be worth more than all the mine, of Poto.1. No dream of Inc. gold, not th. very Temple of the Sun Iteelf, would buy one year', potato crop today. But how could Spanish plunderers know this a. they trod under foot a tuber that went from that upland Peruvian plain to every corner of the temper ate sonef Much later It came to be called the Irish potato. It Is within the last century that the potato as we know It he. been developed. AU our best varletlee are younger than this, having originated el nee the Civil war. The original potato from Peru needed a lot done to It, for It was amall and bad deep set eyes, bo deeply set In fact that cutting them out practically destroy ed the tuber. The early potato cham pions set out to improve this knobby hollow-eyed deformity, but they first had to fight a lot of Ignorant botan ists. These alarmed- England with statement, that the potato must be poisonous because It was first cousin to the tienbane, the Jlmson weed and tobacco. But so are egg-plant and the tomato. (Mercury) Again The SO IT goes on I Judge Fehl following the precedent established by his "alter ego" L. A. Banks, files an affidavit of preju dice against Judge Duncan. This action automatically disquali fies the presiding judge from hearing the case against Fehl. A new judge will have to be appointed. Whoever that judge may be, Fehl will undoubtedly file an affidavit against him. Thus by taking advantage of prejudice exists justice will be delayed, and this period of dis sension and strife, from which this community has suffered so long, and all right thinking people wish to see terminated at the earliest possible moment, will be indefinitely extended. AS WE understand the law, nothing can be done to prevent such action. ,0nly after exercising two affidavits of preju dice, can a defendant be FORCED to accept the third judge appointed, and be brought before the bar of justice. , Ever since his indictment as a result of the stealing and burning of the ballots. Judge Fehl has passionately maintained his complete innocence. He has was merely a gigantio political We will leave it to the fair minded people of Jackson county, as to whether his efforts to prevent his own case from coming to trial, in the regular course of legal procedure, supports his contention, or throws a certain cloud of suspicion and doubt around it. Men conscious of their innocence, convinced of the justice of their cause don't usually resort to legal technicalities to gain time and delay justice; but are almost always eager to be brought before their accusers at the EARLIEST POSSIBLE MOMENT. AS WE see it the only thing for local authorities to do under such circumstances, is to appeal to the supreme court and the higher authorities to cooperate with them, and dispose of these affidavits of prejudice just as quickly as the legal formal ities allow. - ' We believe- the people of Jackson county, in spite of fac tional differences are a unit, in their desire to have these cases brought to trial just as soon as possible, and the entire unsavory mess cleared up definitely, ONCE AND FOR ALL, the guilty punished, the' innocent exonerated. Only when this is done can Jackson county return to any thing approaching normalcy, and that condition of peace, pros perity and well being which WE ALL DESIRE, be realized. The Prescott Memorial rE idea that a memorial slab be erected to the memory of Officer George Prescott, who died in the performance of his duty , is a good one. There should certainly be some PERMANENT REMINDER to this and 'future generations of the sacrifice made by a brave and loyal peace officer, and his inestimable contribution to the maintenance of an orderly demo cratic government in this community. . Before this tragody happened preparations were made for the erection of a gigantio drinking fountain on the court house grounds. It seems to us, that to incorporate the idea of such a memorial in this fountain, would be most fitting. The court .house not only better symbolizes the lawful ideal involved than the city park, but the lesson learned at such a deplorable sacrifice, is a lesson for all Jackson county, not the city of Medford alone. Moreover there is something too cold and impersonal about a granite slab and nothing more. A bronze tablet on a drinking fountain, commemorating this tragio saorifice, would, we be lieve, appeal to the people of Jackson county, much more. Will It Be War ? SO GERMANY now has its dictator. " Hitler is granted auto cratic powers. An alliance with Austria is advocated. ' All Europe is once more seething. been laid, all that is needed is a spark to bring the explosion. The only hope now is that another Sarajevo will somehow be avoided. But with super-nationalism rampant, with the irresistible force of the Old Entente, facing the immovable body of a revived Alliance, it is diffioult to see how that spark can be avoided. However while peace remains there is always hope. Premier McDonald of Great Britain, more than any other statesman in Europe today personifies that hope. He is essentially a man of peace. He thoroughly understands the extremity of the present situation. He is working night and day to prevent Europe from repeating its ghastly blunder of 1914. He deserves the help and the prayers of all who realize that another European war means the extinction of European civilization THEY RENOUNCE G.G.C. To th. Editor: On account of the disorders which hav. taken place, I wish to announce my withdrawal from the Oood Gov ernment Congress. I sure believe in good government, but believe the only war to get It is tnrougn law and order. I am opposed to any vio lence or law violation. I believe we have the best government on earth.

It la the edl tor. and not the conductor of this column, who baa bad another baby, The editor la giv ing the conductor the low down about It, and the conductor thinks It may encourage some of the pawengers, so we're In viting everybody to listen in). The family doctor, who knows our case histories. Is fond of us and wants to keep our trade charged 3fi complete coat for attention before, after and dur ing. Nurse, two weeks, at $36 a week, a grand gal who's been hav- . lng babies for 20 years; not a practical nurse, but, a trained . nurse who hasn't an RN because ' people weren't as fussy about wanting titles In the days when ahe took her hospital training and didn't quite finish it. . . . I'd choose her, full time at home, any day in preference to the part time of some student nurse In a hospital. Asked the doctor what he needed' for a home hospital; he ' made up the list of necessities , . . they totaled $3.84 at the lo- . cal drug store. Friends and neighbors donated the clothes, some new gifts and others cast-offs outgrown - by their own children, but still us able, lowever, they neglected to Include shirts In the layette, and I had to buy two at 76 cents a ' piece. The previous two were welcom- ' ed Into this world on the same easy payment plan and I have no Intention of changing the eya tem for the next three. Here endeth the tragio tale or what a lot of misguided people seem to consider a tragedy in these days. asked the editor's permission to print her letter. She cordially con sented and game me some additional data, which should interest others who are considering having a new Communications Give Prescott Boy a Job. To the Editor: 1 have noticed many suggestions regarding aid for the family of the late George Prescott. They are all good, but may I suggest another one which appeals to me more than any yet advanced? - George had a son about 22 years ago, an Industrious lad, with a fairly good education, but fc; a long time he has been unable to get a Job. When George was alive he refused to use his Influence to get Paul a position for fear It might put some other deserv ing person out of work. You know what a fine type of man he was. It occurs to me that nothing would help the Prescott family more at this time than for someone, to give this boy a Job. I can guarantee his hon esty and Industry. He spends his time now caring for hi. Invalid mother and doing odd Jobs around the home. A paying position would do him great good, morally and physi cally, and help the family. I believe, as nothing else would. Perhaps print ing this In your paper would result In his finding a place I feel this Is the most Important thing to do at the present time, Name on' Pile. Dr. Brower Explains. -' To the Bdltor: In your paper of March 20, a stste ment Is made that i had signed an affidavit on that date asking T. L. Brecheen be released from Jail for medical attention.

To the Bdltor: Tirvt,....,tnviTiff niw.nls thoiurht.and hoped that the killing of George Prescott, awrul ana unneewsnry u was, would cause the members of the n n n. tn awake and see where their leaders had been leading them but alas, it seems inat some own Mm.in .wi hltnd or too bullheadcd to admit they had made a mistake. Mary, as is snown oy me retrac tions every day in the papers, havs awakened and see that the O. O. C. was only to foster lllwin. Jealousy and lvll war In Jackson county. We all have only praise for .them thst they havs dared admit they were wronjt and misled when they Joined and now wish all to know how they feel This strife, which has rocked Jack son county for so msny months, turn ing neighbor against neighbor, moth er ajralnst son, snd brother against brother, should all forgotten now and everyone pull together and work to brine Medford out of the mire of aedltlon and treachery.

The editor continues: I worked ' In the office for a full alx months and only quit then In acquiescence to conven tional standards. For the next two months I went on long walks five or six miles two or three times a week, sometimes longer, and sometimes more frequently. The doctor then ordered me to stop them; he Isn't a fogy and I guess he Just didn't want to run the risk of having to conduct a delivery In Creek. I covered my sector for the election night v news, making the rounds of poll- -lng places to get the final re sults and phone them to the paper Just In time to summon the nurse and doctor ... the baby was born at the moment Hoover conceded defeat. When a woman of such caliber gives such a fine example It makes the near-snobbery of namby-pamby maternity look pretty cheap. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Pimples I have pimples on my face. Which is best to eat, oatmeal or (a proprie tary cereal preparation) ? 1 am avoid ing starches, sweets, potatoes, cocoa, tear, coffee, nuts. ( O. G.) Answer. Oatmeal Is good for any one who likes it; Wheat Is in my Judgment the best cereal, but I should not recommend fricasseed or flabbergasted wheat, so long as the natural article la available. Just aa it comes from the threshing machine. Send stamped envelope bearing your address and mention-that you have pimples. I don't nokw why you should avoid any one of the things you mention. Torn cartilage la there any cure for torn cartilage In the knee? I fell on It 18 months ago and have not been able to enter Into athletics since. (J. E.) Ana. The best remedy is surgical removal, or possibly anchoring of the loosened or torn cartilage. Water on the Brain la there such a condition as "water on the brain"? If so. what are the symptoms, and t there any cure for; It? (B. V.) - Ans. Yea, acute tuberculosis men ingitis. There is no known curs tor it. (Copyrlsii-. John F.
