A Great Job
TIIE workers in the Community Chest campaign are to be
congratulated... 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.

VHEN MY GORGE RISES
Th hallmark of a gentleman in,
Robert Louis fitevenon'i era wai the
way he took a alap with a amlle and I
a kick in the

expostulation. Hla
gorge rose only
when another
gentleman quea-;

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.

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.

ion of Fred Sargent, president of the
Chicago and Northwestern railroad.
Single unit gas and electric loco

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.
