"Nothing will retard the return to Prosperity but too much efficiency," sys Clarence Darrow, tamed criminal lawyer. Nothing Is so deadly as ef ficiency. Many will remember the efficiency engineer, who swooped down upon the commercial club 14 yeara ago. He mapped out a program of efficiency that required the spend ing of 4 to keep from spending II. For this he efficiently collected more then he had coming. He left behind a number so Infatuated with effici ency, they are unable to get anything done to this day. He also planted two glaas top desks, where but one existed before. It took all forenoon for the owner of the desks to effici ently decide which one he would loaf at, all afternoon. Attorney Darrow fears, and may be with good grounds, that another plague of efficiency kids are on the way, to Indulge In an economic stall. 0 "He's probably dead now, but If not, I'd like the aolo motorcyclist who cut In between my car and a coach near Polhlll on Sunday to know that his survival owes nothing to my good wishes.

His death ii a great losi to American humor and comedy. Lardner might be called the literary off spring of 0. Henry and George Ada In him were fused the qualities of both the greatest thort atory writer and the greatest humorist of the late 90 's, but as if often the case with children of exceptional parents, in neither field did he attain the emi nence of his forebears. His humor prevented him from delving as deeply into the core of urban American character as did 0. Henry; his facile creative faculty prevented him from reaching the height of Indiana's "Mark Twain." In versatility sheer virtuosity, Lardner however surpassed both of his predecessors. He could turn out a straight sports story that would knock the fang off the bleachers; he could knock off a children's verse that would make all the ladies smile through their tears; he could compose a comic opera between the soup and cordial, and produce a best seller "serial" with one hand; while he outlined a new song hit with the other. IX THIS rare facility he resembled Eddie Cantor, who in addi tion to hia preeminence as a stage comedian, can whenever he wishes make the first pajje of the Saturday Evening Post, or give Rudce Valee a number that he will like to croon. Like practically all the stars in modern American humor, Ring Lardner was self made. He graduated from a newspaper sporting desk, as Will Rogers graduated from a now ranch, and 0. Henry from a drug store. Unlike the synthetic school of wisccrackcrs he imitated no one, but Btruck out for the grass roots unassisted and alone. He was always himself, which is perhaps the keystone of any creative work that lives. f IIS untimely death provides the Anti-Tuberculosis League with a strong talking point. With more money than he knew what to do with, with every care that science could pro vide, he was nevertheless unable to ward off the ravages of the White Plague. The two chief reasons, are the two . chief causes of the sustained toll of this dread disease: first, failure to start fighting at the first warning; second, failure to disregard the mysterious optimism, that this ailment engenders. Victims of tuberculosis are almost always, feeling better, quite convinced they are going to beRt the game. So Ring Lardner abandoned the Arizona desert and returned to New York which ho knew and loved so well. IJAD he abandoned New York ENTIRELY, and made the desert his permanent abode, he might be well and alive today. Perhaps those who' knew the man best would not be surprised to learn, that he realized this, and deliberately pre ferred to shake the dust of the wilderness from his feet, and step from the Broadway Limited to the pavements and bright lights of the big city, his first and only HOME! Can 't Be Evaded, Now tl'E TRUST the report frtm upstate thnt there will be no special session of the legislature, la baseless rumor and nothing more. The reason given Is "no agreement could be reached on tax matters." How do they, or anyone else know, until they tryt Not to call a special session, for such a reason as this, is to admit the failure of representative government its complete and utter breakdown. For certainly this state never has needed a special session more. There is the tax problem to be solved, the relief problem, the liquor problem, the problem of higher education and many other problems. These matters can't be allowed to slide. Even granting a solution of the tax and rplief problems is impossible which this paper doesn't believe, a lem would alone justify a special session, DEPORE the first of the year, prohibition will certainly be " repealed. There is no doubt, Whatever, that liquor control will not be assumed by the government but will be left to the states. Already there are functioning in 10 states, official control boards for the regulation of intoxicants their duties now being confined to beer. The moment prohibition is repealed these boards will all be ready to assume regulation and control of spirituous liquors. TTHAT is as it should be, and MUST be, if confusion is not to be worse confounded, and chaos and demoralization, follow prohibition repeal, in every state which ".a unprepared. Not only that but the tax revenue from liquor, will not be received; while abuses will oreep in, which the longer action is delayed, the harder they will be to correct. A SPECIAL SESSION MUST BE CALLED I It is incon ceivable that any responsible leaders upstate or anywhere else, would think any other course possible, at the present time!

EXPECTANT TREATMENT OF APPENDICITIS Up to the tlmt X bad It myself I always believed In and practiced ex pectant management of acute appen dicitis. That la. I thought it wise to wait 48 hours, and consider an operation then 1 the attack seem ed to warrant It. But I thougnt my doctors were taking too great a chance when they allowed my attack to run on and on for hours before they trun dled me off to the operating room. In England for a year or more tnere has been a controversy In the profession over the treatment of ap pendicitis. We referred to it here last May. Quoted the Dr. Robert T. Morris of English surgery Lord Moy- nlhan. who declared that patients never die of appendlcltla in England; they die of Its treatment. By that he meant that physics are fatal where there Is an acute bell ache which may possibly be appendicitis, never, never, should the patient take or be given any kind of laxative or physic. That only tends to aggra vate and stir up and spread any In flammation there may be. A vast amount of experience In this country has proved that the appendicitis pa tient who has received a physio or laxative has a poorer chance to re cover than has the patient who has not received such medicine. The "healing, soothing' elect of castor oil la sheer old fishwife and It is time that sensible folk realized It. Moynlhan went further and satd that an aperient (British for 'physic or cathartic) had been the cause of perforation In every such case of gangrenous appendicitis he had seen and we all know Moynl has seen plenty. He said no danger would en sue from expectant treatment if ap- perlents were withheld and nothing, not even a swallow of water, was given by mouth. Which all pounds Impressive coming from such a great surgical authority. But just the same, I'd rather have the operation for mine, that Is, If I felt reasonably certain that the trouble was acute appendicitis. Now a London surgeon by the name of R. A. Ramsey would "leave'severe alone" cases of appendicitis In which there is reason to believe the- Inflam mation Involves more extensive struc tures than the appendix, that is, where there la some peritonitis with congestion and greater friability of tissues, but this surgeon Insists upon operation as the best treatment In routine cases. Still another prominent English surgeon, R. J. McNeill Love, seems to favor expectant treatment he retorts NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre YORK HARBOR, Maine, .Sept. 30.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Piece of Glass Swallowed. About a week ago I had a dish of canned cherries and found two or three bits of broken glass in the cherries. Don't know Whether I swallowed any of the glass or not . . . W. C. A. Answer If you did, it was prob ably passed in the fecal matter within 48 hours. Whenever bits of glass or ground glass powder have been swallowed, the best course is (!) to avoid cathartics for the few days, and (2) eat plenty of banana, potato and any and all fresh vege tables or fruits, to provide a large pulpy residue to coat the foreign ma terial and protect the lining of stom ach and Intestine. The same rule Is best where any foreign object Is ac cidentally swallowed by a child. In all such cases I think a dally dose of a tablcspoonful of flaxseeds is beneficial; either raw and whole or swallowed after steeping In boiling water if you prefer. Malaria. Several years ago I contracted ma larla on Long Island. Every spring or summer since I have had an attack . . . Mrs. L. O. B. Answer If the diagnosis of the original attack was positive (malaria parasites seen in red corpuscles In blood specimen examined under mic roscope during the chill), probably the best plan is to keep a supply of quinine blsulphate capsules on hand and take ten grains a day for period of a month each spring or early summer. The dose is best taken at bedtime. Choking. Tour suggestion to press the ball of foot against footboard to relieve leg cramp at night Is so helpful. Here is a similar suggestion I have found helpful: When choking, raise your left arm over and close to the head for immediate relief. It seems simple, but it is effective M. M. a. Answer Thank you. Our readers will soon determine whether it is effective. (Copyright, 1933, John V. Dllle Co.)

Ridges of sharp teeth Jutting far to sea do not give It the softness of most sea shores. I wondered If Maine's austerity was not reflected from its forbidding coastal lines.

Maine Is remindful of the fast hold the camping movement has on youth of America, The first of such camps was established In Maine in 1896 From here they spread to almost every state.

(Associated Press Photo) Ring Lardner, Who Gave World Humorous Side of Sport, Succumbs to T. B. By DAL HARRISON NEW YORK, Sept. 38. (VP) Ring Lardner, who once noted that there wasn't much difference between his native Nlles, Mich., and his adopt ed New York, because both begin with an "N," has lost his long fight against tuberculosis. The lean, six-foot humorist whol made you and me know Al, and who became a ranking figure of Amer ican literature, died suddenly at his East Hampton, Long Island, home last night, in the 48th year of an active. Interesting life. For ten years Ringgold Wllmer Lardner fought the disease. During those years, with the specter drawing steadily closer, his humor flowed on. bringing laughs to the faces of those who saw on the stage "Elmer the Great" end then "June Moon," and to others tens of thousands who read his "Story of a Wonder Man," "Love Nest." and other stories. Heart disease complicated by other ailments, was given by his doctors as the Immediate cause of death. Only in the last few years has the Lardner typewriter gone on hort hours. His doctors ordered htm to the southwest, and he remained there many months. When he returned to New York several months ago he was reported much better. His days of quantity production, however, were over. He did a col umn on radio In the weekly 'New Yorker" A humorous, critical col umn that carried a sting for tha artists, those sponsors and those sta tions which he felt were not serving the public need for entertainment. The sweep of the humor that filled "You know me, Al." "Oulllble's Trav els." "Own Your Own Home," and the hilarious, "How to Write Short Stor ies" was gone. Occasionally It flash ed on those last published writings, but the spontaneity and wit of "Treat 'Em Rough," "The Young Immt grunts" and "Symptoms of Being 35" were not there. His Journalistic experience waa de voted almost entirely to the sport page South Bend. Chicago, St. Louis, Boston, and back to Chicago. He traveled with the baseball clubs, the White Sox and the Cubs, In the dare of "Doc" White, Mordecel (Three fingered) Brown, Frank Chance, Tin kers, Evers and the many othera of Chicago's heydey of baseball. He be' came a recognized authority on the gume, loving It for 1U sport and for the humanness of Its plsyers. From this experience he drew the material far the development of his best known character, the egotistical, bumptious, lovsble and dumb bushleiguer, Jack Keefe, who told of his experiences li the big league by means of letters to "Al." "He called me a dumb ox, and 1 said, 'Oh. is that so?' and he didn't have no comeback." Such was the character that cen tered serious attention on Ring Lard ner as a humorist. At the time Lard ner wse conducting the "In the wake of the News" column In the Chlcsgo Tribune, a post to which he succeed ed following the death of "Hek." a pioneer sports columnist. On Mon days, Instead of running the usual column. Lsrdner wrote child verse, based. It was said, on the antics of his own children. These later were collected and published as "Bib Bsl lads." hia first published work. Lardner has told that the "Jack Keefe" letters were based on his ex periences with an Illiterate but mighty ball-player who brought let tera from hia wife for Lardner to read and answer. The wife was al ways asking for money, and the ball player was alwaya full of reasons why he couldn't send any. Few writers were ever more highly regarded personally than Lardner. He spent prodigally, backing the shows of his friends, helping those tn need. Surviving him are his widow, the former Kills Abbott of Goshen. Ind . and four eons John. James, Ring W. Jr.. and David. Lardner was especially fond of music snd In his baseball reporting day, did the lvrtca of a song. "Little Puff of Smoke, oood Night," the "pu of emoke" being a p'.ckinlnny.
