This, would solve the relief problem. e Amateur mountaineer! are attll tumbling down mountalna they en. deavor to climb In their dancing shoes. Disaster haa overtaken several, when they attempted to negotiate crag, that would baffle a veteran and experienced goat. As soon as stormy weather sets In, the amateur woods men will start strolling out Into the timber, to keep the sheriffs of the respective counties busy and awake all night, trying to find them, before the well known mysterious hills claim another admirer. Just at present and vlelng with the aforesaid tenderfeet. are the aquatlo-mlnded, generally garbed In aktn-tlght, flaming red suits. They poise on, and plunge off 28-foot cliffs, Into 3.3 feet of water, ' the Impact being tough on the neck and basic vertabrae of ye spinal col umn. It la akin to diving off a back porch into a frying pan full of water. Likewise your amateur mountaineer has never been upon his own roof, when It leaked, and your amateur woodsman haa electrlo llghta In hts woodshed. They should stay home, nestled In a rocking chair guaranteed not to tip over and break a leg, aa rocking chalra have been known to do. see SATURDAY NIGHT TRAFFIC (Nahuin Ch. 2, V. 4) "The chariots shall rage In the streets, they shall Jostle one against another In the broad ways; they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings." Ths warden of Sing Sing prison writes, that "a isrge portion of crime Is due to the criminal not thinking twice." Our observation along this line has been that a large portion of the crime Is due to the criminal thinking that lie can think. e e AflV. Carpenter bobbed up Wed, In the hottest looking cool summer suit, that ever greeted the vision of the oldest Inhabitant hereabouts. It wss pin-striped, which a lsdy friend of the wearer alleged gave It soothing dignity. e . e Hysteria arising out of the Cuban revolution, reveals that our own hys terics were of a low order, and lacked vengeance and hatred, though wind ier by far. The Cubans also have a deft manner of handling their female agitators, who rushed squealing Into the turmoil, according to press dis patches. They slapped them where It would do the most good, with the flat aide of a machete. tee The state will enact liquor control. If they can Just control the liquor, the galoot full of It will be sotved. Patted calves are still kicking around In the willows, due to hunt era shooting first, and Inquiring afterwarda. Such Incidents Irk the owner of the calf, who aimed to rear the calf to bullhood, and then. In Its virility gore him. or try to. In an other month man end deer will be the victims of shooting a gun, like a pair of die blaze away, and hope for the beat, For the benefit of his patients Dr. A. Hardaway announces that ha will be absent from his office during the next week or ten daya. (Dakota Paper.) A frank and candid physician decides to give his pstlente a break. tee Many an Oregon cltlien, running for an office, his thrilled the voters with stirring declaration: The way to reduce taxes, la to reduce taxes. It sounded good, even If the results were always In the other direction. Now Is the time to announce, that the way to pay taxes. Is to pay the taxes, and the way to collect the taxea Is to collect the Uses. e e The Cosmeticians of America In convention assembled have ruled that the feminine eyebrow this fall shall be thinner, and where the Lord originally put It, and that the fash ionable lady shall use all ths rouge possible, which ah Is already doing. The C. of C. Makes Good! rPHE Chamber of Commerce membership drive went over the top with a bang.. According to one of the team captains, it was "easier to get new members this year than in 1928." It should be. In the first place an effective and efficient chamber of commerce is more needed now than it was then; in the second place the present chamber is doing at least 100 percent better work, than it was five years ago. TNDER its present administration the chamber of commerce w is a genuine clearing house for community economic prob lems, a clinio for community ills and business madadjustments, a constant stimulant for constructive achievement. It is no longer exclusively a Medford organization, interested solely in Medford problems, it is a county organization, interest ed in every industry in this section of the state, and eager to help the most remote district. , The hot air has been squeezed out, the blah-blah stuff and nonsense eliminated. The Chamber of Commerce today is a thoroughly practical organization, and a very effective one, contributing something to the community every day, in the direction of dollars and cents. In getting widespread and enthusiastic support at this time, the chamber is merely getting what it deserves. Business men who are able to support it and refuse to do so, are merely Blackers, willing to receive their share of the business benefits of Buch an organization, without contributing their share to make such benefits possible. C'ULLT as important as the dollar and cents value of the chamber is its value in the matter of community morale at the present time. With the recent "unpleasantness" cleared up, there is a golden opportunity to start things going again, with a clean slate, and a return to the progressive and go-ahead spirit, that gave this district such an enviable reputation all up and down the coast. In this direction the chamber of com merce is indispensible as a clearing house, a gathering place, a coordinator and harmonizer for this entire section of Southern Oregon. In this direction alone, it deserves the hearty and enthusi astic support of all., the right thinking and forward looking citizens of Jackson county. A Real Super Spark Plug QTANDARD Oil district managers come and go. It is a way they have. The transfer of the present manager, A, P. Johnsen, from Medford to Fresno, was to be exrected, and that fact in itself calls for no particular comment. "Augie's" stay here was probably longer than the average. But with his departure we would like to say a word of ap. preciation and commendation, as well as extend this paper's best wishes for continued success in his new field, Augie was a great assot to this community, and his place will be hard to fill. If thero was any worthy civic movement, to the success of which he did not contribute we don't know what it was. As district manager he was a very busy man, but he always had time for whatever was on the agenda for community better- ment.V . T- WAS his unique contribution as an energizer, however, that will be so greatly missed. Wo have never mastered the various mothods of speeding up gasoline most of them we havo an idea are a lot of blah. But there was no "blah" about the way Augie speeded up anything he undertook. He put something into ths mixture that not only eliminated the "knocks" but stepped up the horse power, in a most amazing fashion. Whether it was a barbecue, a golf tournament, an NRA campaign,- or a community jubilee, all they had to do was hook up Augie as a generator, and away they went, on high I This is a very rare gift. Not that there are not plenty of high power salesmen, plonty of professional pep'artists and glad banders but Augie was something more than a good cheer leader, ho had a way of taking off his coat and playing the game! He has been of great value here and wo are sorry he is going. He has set an example of enthusiastic and disinterested publio service, which will be a mark to shoot at for some time to come.

An ounce of whiskey Is equivalent to a pint of this new beer In alco holic potency A whiskey glsss holds about two ounces. Figure It out for yourself whst effect a pint even a glass (half a pint) of the new beer Is likely to have, espec ially on a child. There Is one feature about the new beer that makes all the fine talk about never permitting return of the saloon seem Insincere, and that Is the fact mat beer Is now sold In grocery stores, markets, lunch rooms and soda foun tains, and it Is going to take a great deal more guts. If we may use the term, for the young boy or girl to avoid cultivating a taste for the stuff. Upon all who believe my teachings sre scientific, sensible and nonest. and particularly parents or guardians of young children, I earnestly urge that this Is a good time to exact a pledge of total abstinence from your children and while you are giving your children the boon of such a solemn pledge, Include tobacco In the list, as well as beer, wine, gin and other alcoholic beverages. If there Is the right kind of under- jstsndlng and love and respect between parent and child, such a pledge la Indeed a boon for the child, because It will help the young boy or girl to decline to "try Just a little one" when the circumstances are exceedingly hard to face. The boy will atlck It out because he Is unwilling to make his mother unhappy; the girl will preserve her Independence, her own personality, against the demoralizing appeal of "all the girls," because ahe Is anxious to . maintain . her loyalty and keep the trust of her dad. We still hoar occasional assertions to the effect that beer ts strength ening, nourishing, a valuable food, or that It helps us stand the depres sion! Compared with milk, beer Is Inferior In all these" respects. Any one who spends a penny for beer when be or his family Is In wsnt of food Is surely a selfish brute and there should be some adequate pen alty attached to such misuse of money In these hard times.. From Europe recently there csme a bit of propsganda that would be Tun ny It It were not so dangerous to Igno. rant people. It was a statement that the scientific authorities, the grest specialists, now advocate the use of more wine and leas milk in the family diets ry. The best wine ever made Is Inferior to milk In every conceivable respect, even If we could consistently assume that all the alcohol In wine Is utilized In the body as food, oxidized as fuel to furnish energy, warmth and new tissue. Of course, we know that as soon as any one takea enough beer or wine to leave an alcoholic odor on the breath, that In itself Is proof that more alcohol has been taken than the body csn possibly utilize and the excess only Intoxlcstes. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Seven Hours Sleep. Accountant, age 37, light weight, average 6ft hours sleep. Please give your opinion whether thia la ade quate. T. C. L.

MclntyTe DL -AT f Tell Us How to Do It! 'PHE Portland Journal declares it will, under no eircum- stances, support a sales tax. It condemns those who would place tie relief of the indigent and starving, upon the success or failure of such an "ipiquitous measure." All right. But the Journal also daolares, with equal vehe mence that the poor people of this state must be fed and clothed during the coming winter, and admits that money is needed to do it. All right again. Now will the Journal PLEASE tell the people of Oregon where that money is coming from I IT MUST come from SOMEWHERE. Food and clothing and fuel CAN'T be provided by legerdemain. Money must be secured to supply them. Where will the Journal get that money f The Journal can't leave the problem there in mid-air. It always inveighs with pious bitterness againut those willing to criticize and tear down, but never willing to build up. It is up to the Journal and ita supporters to start building up to exercise some of its reserve political and financial wis dom, in devising some alternative to the sales tax, that will WORK. tTflUT is hf The Journal says the poor and needy must be provided for. Everyone agrees. Then for Tets sake, tell the poor benighted people, how it is to be done. The sales tax, we admit, is out of the picture, it is np to the Journal to put something in the picture that will work, or frankly admit that without the sides tax, as far as IT is con cerned, the job can't be done I NEW YORK, Aug. 34. So far as tho metropolla la concerned prohibition of liquor does not exist. The town Is wide open. There are swing door saloons everywhere and from most a passevby can hear the rattle of the cocktail a h a k e r and the ft&B of high ball seltzer. One on Tenth avenue even bra zenly flaunts a window card: "We Do Not Sell -T.iv.v ooor. Bums tonler hotels, which observed the liquor laws during the long draught, now serve cocktalla and table wine openly. Often auch service msy be obtained from the street. The beer saloons on the Bowery hr.ve also acquired their old-time fla vor. Saw-dust Is sprinkled on the ! floor and the bar-keepers have the j familiar bristly pompsdours and are growing handy with the bung starter. I Extravagant beer gardens with Vien nese orchestra have not fulfilled ex pectations, j New York Is not yet weaned from I speakehsles. They provided an out- let for the Instinct to herd amid a 1 plush and tapestried grandeur even the gaudiest of old-time ar-rooms did not offer. Now ,thrt the sky Is j the limit In such places, beer gardens i have little appeal, ; sel and Joe Schenck. I have an ac curate version of the couple In a Hollywood restaurant bar.

(AP) Wheat 'men of the Pacific northweat were hopeful today that speedy ap proval would meet a plan' to export this region's wheat surplus of about 40,000,000 bushels and thereby strengthen the entire domestic mar ket. The plan, adopted after a three- day meeting here of producers, ex porters, millers and federal officials, was sent on Its way yesterday to Washington, D. C, for the approval of the secretary of agriculture. At the conclusion of the hearing called by the agricultural adjustment administration, it was announced that all Interests had approved the code, although its details were not dis closed.
