El TALKS AT MEET An open forum on the subject of merchandising occupied the attend ance of Med ford Rotarlans at their regular weekly meeting held at the Hotel Medford Tuesday. The discus sion was led by John Moffatt who presented a talk on this subject at last week's session and followed out the program policy which has prov en so popular with local Kotarlans during the past year. Many Interesting points were Dim out during this week's discussion in which varloua members of the club participated, Including the fallacy of the "loss lesder" policy now preva lent In many lines of business. A new type of "racketeering" Involving the manufacture of ready-to-wear garmente by unscrupulous Individ uals 1n the east was discussed by Tarnoy Steward during the session. Floyd Hart gave, an Impromptu talk on the advantages of shipping various products In wood boxes rather than fibre cartons outlining the many benefits to be derived locally. The statement that box shook was being shipped from Medford to every state In the union was a revelation to those present. Mr. Hart also ed- vlsevl that 05 per cent of the cost of a carload of box shook was for labor which gives evidence of the Import ance of the wood box Industry to this city. Dr. B. L. lgeson announced de tailed plana for the Orater Lake cara van next Sunday In which a large number of Rotarlans will participate and Don Ubby, assistant superinten dent of Crater National park told of the road conditions He also stated that the total snowfall up until April 1st waa 734 inches which Is greater thsn last year's record. President Lantis urged a good showing from the Rotary club In next Sunday's cara van. Next week's program will feature moving pictures of Honolulu taken by Rttartn Archie Pierce on his re cent trip to Hawaii and a large at tendance Is anticipated. J. uttwtller of Olearmont, Calif., was a visiting R-otarlan at the meet ing and guests included J. D. Mlckle of Salem, Gordon Kershaw, C. Aus tin, Pete Denson and Henry Fluhrer of Medford.

Address Dr. William Brady in care of ASEPTIC TECHNIC If everybody knew and practiced the essential principles of asepsis, as physicians and nurses do, it would rarely be neces sary to Isolate or quarantine any body as we do now In the effort to prevent the spread of Infec tious disease. If everybody knew as much as doctors and nurses know about this sub J e c t, no one would have any fear of leprosy, smallpox, diphtheria. meningitis, tuberculosis. Infantile paralysis when a case occurs or Is suspected to exist In the community. If the general laity knew as much i surgeons, physicians and nurses know about the healing process, sep ticemia (acute blood poisoning) and less formidable but painful and se rious enough complications, setbacks, delays and consequences of Injury would be far less frequent than they are at present. It Is upon the principle of asepsis that all first aid treatment of wounds Is based. Success In the first aid and after-treatment of any wound. minor or major, depends upon this bit of fundamental knowledge, name ly, that with proper care we can keep germs out of a wound but If they once get Into the wound no germi cide or antiseptic will destroy the germs without damaging the Injured tissues and retarding the healing, to say the least. Many educated persons, who are generally Ignorant of human anatomy. physiology, hygiene and pathology, do not know what asepsis means. They assume It Is a misprint for antiseptic or something. Briefly, asepsis means the method or process of keeping free from germs. The field or environment may be aseptic without being quite sterile. For example the mouth or nose or throat harbors multitudes of germs always, mostly harmless germs; but If one happens to approach to within five feet from the face' of a person who has orl, while the person con verses In an ordinary tone, some of the crl germs are likely to find their way Into one's nose or throat, unless a suitable screen or mask Is used to prevent such spray Infection. That's one kind of asepsis, keeping beyond the five foot conversational spray range of persons who have any respiratory Infection or wearing suitable mask, or erecting a suitable screen to fttop the Invisible moisture Communications Thank You, Mr. Wood.

Anawer The practice of putting to death In some painless way persons suffering from Incurable dlaeaee or distressing deformity la not a medi cal problem. So far as I know, no reputable physician would undertake to execute such a patient. Vegetarianism. Is It healthful to be a vegetarian, taking eggs and milk In place of meat? Can a young person live on a meatless diet and still build mus cle and tissue aa well aa tho meat were Included In the diet? Is It only meat that keeps one from becoming undernourished and anemic? L. A. Answer If one hss plenty of freah eggs and fresh milk It makes little difference whether meat Is excluded One who takes plenty of fresh eggs and fresh milk can thrive, build mua. cle and tissue as well as tho meat were Included In the diet. No, milk, eggs, greena and fresh fruits are ade quate to prevent undernourishment or anemia. Real vegetarianism, how- ever, Is not healthful. A mixed diet Including a fair proportion of fresh meats Is generally most healthful (Copyright, John P. Dllle Co.)
