They evidently have no par ticular place to go, no particular business. They move about as fst aa a 10-year old mule going to work. They spread out to aa to take up the whole width of side walk and lest some small, quick person might crowd through, they put their hands In their pocketo and form a hedge fence with their eltsws. " Then they mope and saunter and gaoe Into the windows. Sometimes they will stop for awhile but al ways In a masterly position of com plete blockade. If you are a big man you can take a run and knock one of them to one side when ha Is off his guard. If they are ladles but excuse me. I never aald ladles did such a thing. (50-Year Ago Col.)

Thanks to their public-spirited efforts, and effective organization, there is no doubt that the drive will go over the top, assuming, of course, that ALL pledges made are fulfilled, which they certainly These workers and their leaders gave liberally of their time, their energy and as contributors To make the lot of those little better; to provide food those who need clothing; shelter for those, who without such help, would have faced a winter These men and women solicited from house to house, gave talks before a score of different part of a week to this great humanitarian service, and nothing else. This successful result not only shows that Medford 's heart is in the right place, but that the true Medford spirit, in spite of the distressing experiences of the past few years, is as strong as it ever was. It shows the same of all Jackson county, for one of the moRt gratifying features of the drive was the gener ous and whole hearted assistance from the outlying rural dis tricts. ajOT only will the money raised be a great help, at a critical " time; but the drive has also revealed to the community as a whole, as nothing else could, the crying need for a community chest at this time. Many people who were solicited for aid, really need aid themselves, and yet have never applied for it. There is work to bo done and winter. The community chest was cut lowest ever set. Yet that total bution ever made. For literally was given, represented a genuine who gave it. The most inspiring large number of small contributions, made in cash, a dollar or half a dollar, from men and every cent they can scrape together. Add to this small total, THE SPIRIT IN WHICH IT WAS GIVEN, and the 1933 community chest represents the finest response to a humanitarian appeal ever recorded in the history of Medford and Jackson county. A Shocking Tragedy .'T'HE plane tragedy near Portland, casts a pall of gloom over a , the entire city, ending as Coffey, nationally known surgeon and well known in this city, who was flying south on an emergency call, from the bedside of Dr. L. A. Salade, who is critically ill at a local hospital. Al Davis, pilot of the plane, was also well known here, where he made his home for quite a period of time. Such tragedies are not uncommon in air travel, and yet this was the first of the kind that has happened on the northwest division of the United Air Lines, which has carried thousands of passengers safely since the P. A. T. started its present regular service. There should be under the oircumstances no doubt, general rejoicing that of the ten people on the ill fated plane, SIX were saved. Frequently in such a disaster the fatality . list is 100 per cent. That so many were rescued was due to the hcroio efforts of Miss Wurgaft, the stewardess, and Co-Pilot Woodworth, who in spite of serious injuries, rushed through the spreading flames and pulled the injured to safety. All honor to theml And all honor to Floyd Hart, of this eity, slso a passenger on the plane, who suffering from shock nnd injuries, made his way through two miles of wilderness to report the accident and seonre help. Such catastrophies to the friends and families of the victims, are crushing, but through the tragedy, go often come flashes of self sacrifice and horoio devotion, which do in a sense, bring a solemn sense of exaltation, which makes the loss easier to bear.

Hla gorge rose only when another gentleman quea-; tloned the regu lnrlty of hla ori gin. This rising of one's gorge Is an Interesting appli cation of a prin ciple of physiolo gy. The arrest of perlsv & 1 1 1 i. Haven't time now to stop and tell you what perletalsis is. sut wnen your peristalsis la right the world's a grand place to live. You can learn all about It by reading Prof. Waltr Cannon's "Bodily Changes In Pain, Hunger, Fear and Rage". Cannon flist noticed, when he was patching the digestive process with the X-Ray, that anger Immediately stopped all movement In the stomach or Intes tine. Fright, alarm or fear has the same effect. Sometimes the peristalsis Is not only stopped, but It la reversed. No wonder you feel a lump In the throat. That's your gorge rising. The same unpleasant emotions that arrest peristalsis tend to prevent the normal or natural ejection of bile from the gall-bladder Into the duo denum. It Is quite conceivable that an Individual who Is subject to anger or much annoyance Is more likely to become Jaundiced than Is one who has a . cheerful or unexcltable dis position. Choler means bile. Melancholia meant black or dark bile long ago. Aslatto cholera was formerly thought due to some fault of the bile. The familiar old name for acute gastro enteritis in hot weather cholera morbus has a similar connotation. Of course we know now that it Is neither green apples nor Just the heat, but Infection of poisoning, us ually from food that has not been kept properly refrigerated and free from contamination. Recently my gorge has been rising a good deal and I think I have been choleric a bit too often. One thing that has had this effect on me Is the gratuitous association of my name with that of a fake "Doctor" who la not a physician at all but neverthe less gets away with the title, thanks to the presumption of his exploiters and the credulity of many laymen. Gosh, how many gorge comes bounc ing up when some wretch quotes what this fake "Doctor" says and asks me DOES that mean that President Roosevelt's popularity Is wanlne? Again the answer must be: "Prob ably not.' LaOuardla, his successful Republican opponent, Is a colorful figure, a fighter who loves a fight for Its own sake, a sort of Huey Long of New York. In times such as these, colorful figures are popular In the voting. The people want candidates who will DO SOMETHING. or at least PROM ISE spectacularly to do something. STILL, the fact remains that last spring ANYBODY favored by President Roosevelt for ANYTHING would have been elected. j The first flush of wltd and spon taneous enthusiasm Is beginning to die down, and the President's hardest days are ahead. He probably knows that as well as anybody else. Communications Pry at Home To the Editor: A solicitor for a local Job printing establishment, that employs the heads of several families, recently called on a local business firm and found a solicitor for an out-of-town firm that does not employ any men In this cltv. does not nav anv taxes or contribute to community I chest or help solicit for the oftest. or do anything to help the city or community, with his samples spread out on the counter and the business man giving htm an order for print ing, thereby reducing the payroll of I the city In which he depends to sell his goods. If Vie same business man, or any other one, would enter any of the Job offices here and find an out-of-town solicitor selling hosiery, ties, shoes, shirts, clothing, auto or elec trio supplies or anything else, he would throw a good-suwd fit. The paymll of the Job offices In this city Is quite a large one and is only maintained as the Job offices receive the work of local firms and professional men. Remember, you can buy everything needed In the printing line, Includ r.ig sales books, salts register cash slips, calendars, blotters, personal stationery, etc., at home and buy them as cheap, and often cheaper than from traveling firms.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Lime Water Please tell me how to make. Jime water, is it safe to use lime from the hardware store? (Mrs. D.i Answer Yes, ordinary lime from the hardware store or building supply store is the right kind. Put a piece of unslaked lime the size of a walnut In an earthen Jar or crock with two quarts of water, stir up, and let set tle. Pour off the supper clear fluid. That Is lime water. A tablespoonful or two of lime water to the cup or pint oz milk is the usual quantity. Diaphragmatic We are using your little brochure on Breathing as a textbook In our vocal classes. We feel that you give the clearest and simplest Instruction for diaphragmatic breathing . . , . (S. B. L.) Answer No doubt you refer to bel lows belly breathing. It la a good practice not only for singers and readers but for silent folk, especially those with high blood pressure, asth ma, "nervous tension" and difficulty In getting to sleep nights. Send a dime and a stamped envelope bearing your correct address, and ask for "The Art of Easy Breathing." Fatherhood Is there any way to prove the fatherhood of a child? (M. H.) Answer No. In some cases blood grouping tests prove that a given person Is NOT the parent of a child.

His average expen diture for shelter Is 9300. A two per cent sales tax on his 9900 expendi tures would amount to 918. The aver age tax credit or saving he would re ceive from shelter tax exemption would amount to $45. A saving of sixty per cent.

E ENGINE SEEN FOR RAILS CHICAGO (UP) The days of steam locomotive, with Its belching smokestack and hissing cylinders, definitely are numbered, In the opin ion of Fred Sargent, president of the Chicago and Northwestern railroad. Single unit gas and electric loco motives of various designs gradually will supplant the Iron horse In both suburban .nd long haul service, Sar gent believes. The single unit sys teni la more practical, flexible and economical than either steam, or a comprehensive, centrifugal electrified system. "Elaborate studies made by West lnghouse and General Electric show that it would cost at least 960,000,000 to electrify the three suburban branches of the Northwestern with a fixed power plant system," said Sar gent. "I predict that within eight or ten years, possibly sooner, the gas unit, or oil-electric engine will be so far developed that It will take the place of steam on American railways." The present method of electrifying railroads .with a stationery central plant and either third rail, or trolley power transmission. Is not flexible enough to be practicable, Sargent contends. The single unit system, however, would permit flexibility of time and service which la necessary for efficient suburban transportation. k Roof Flashings and gutters. Brill Metal Works.
