A Merry Christmas "For Air "One hundred iheep, 1C.000 dozen orangea, aevera! carload. of fuel and truck, of eecond-h.nd clothing have been donated to the Sunshine Division In Portland-" Pres. dUpatch. Jlcdford has its own "Sunshine Division" for Christmas. It is, and has been for many years, in charge of the local Elks lodge. There is no more worthy movement in the city, or one more in harmony with the genuine Christmas spirit. Donations are now in order for this real COMMUNITY Christmas tree, which is designed to provide every destitute and deserving family, in Jackson county with good things to cat, and useful things to wear, make Christmas cheer a UNI VERSAL) thing throughout Southern Oregon, in spite of the continued depression. IF you have more than you can eat, more than you can wear, or some loose change that yon can spare; here is a glorious opportunity to gladden some cheerless home, brighten the eyes of some underprivileged children, on Christmas morning. No matter how modest the offering, it will be used and greatly ap preciated. And there will be no expense involved. Just send what you can to the Elks lodge, it will be put in an attractive package, and distributed, by the lodge, free of charge. Can you think of any better, more practical way to thor oughly enjoy TOUR Christmas this yeart Its Up To You and You! nPHE Knox liquor control plan has passed both houses, and in all likelihood, without radical change, will immediately be come law. The result is an outstanding victory for enlightened regula tion of the liquor traffic, under the new federal repeal dispensa tion. The state is given a monopoly of the liquor business, and therefore its absolute control. The provisions of the measure, render the return of the saloon or anything approaching it im possible. It also outlaws the bootlegger, the moonshiner, the speakeasy and the night club, as far as hard liquor is con cerned. And without hard liquor, none of these agencies of evil and corruption, can endure.

Bound To Come TPIIE surprising thin? about the collapse of the "ideal ro- mance" of Doug and Mary is not that it has occurred, but that it did not occur long ago. Here were two outstanding movie stars, married and CON TINUING to be stars. As Mary rather pathetically observes, the real trouble started when they put on The Taming of the Shrew, she was given a minor part and the robustious Doug stolo the show I A career behind tho footlights or the Klicg lights for that matter puts something in the blood that is soldom if ever eradicated. As long as the career is continued it is NEVER eradicated. In such a life there is no satisfactory substitute to public acclaim the cheers of the crowd. Everything is subordinated to that including a happy home and a bouncing family. If AD Mary Pickford followed the example of Mrs. Jack A Barrymore and retired from the stage, to devote herself to her home and her husband's career this perfect romance might have continued, or at least not have been definitely shattered. Or if Doug had retired and agreed to be her man nger or a theatrical Squaw Man, as it were, there might have been a similar outcome. But she had another idea and so did Doug. They were to be dual stars, neither was to be a satellite. A beautiful idea, but it didn't work. It couldn't work. It was "agin" nature human nature. The marvel wo repeat is NOT that it ended, but thnt it lasted so long that it did is a great tribute to the really deep attach ment and affection, that must have existed between these two outstanding favorites of the old fashioned silent screen.

Communications As spectacles and diversions for honest work ing people, base ball, hockey and football are fine sports. They take the spectator out of doors, where he gets whatever benefits a bund led or coddled or fashionably dress ed person can get from the air and the sunshine. Aside from the advantage of fresh air and sunshine, these popular sports are no better for the mental and physical health of the on-looker than are the movies or other indoor shows. Sedentary folk who Imagine they get any health benefit from attending Daaenan or football games deceive themselves. Even when the game Is a good one and the spectator be comes exolted about it, there la precious little good to health In such vicarious outlet of emotion. The behavior of the excited spectator or fan, his yelling and his wild antics, Is akin to the hysterics of an ordin ary neurotic who feels an Instinctive If not feeble Impulse to fight or to run away and attempts to compro mise by just screaming or raising hob for a while. It Is a poor sub stitute. Golf Is not altogether bad for the sedentary Individual who wishes to keep his balance. Unfortunately, golf Is a rich man's game. Takes plenty of time and plenty of jack to play the game consistently, even If It be only for a short, short sum mer season In the north. Down south where the golf bug can pur sue the pill the year round, the game Is sttll more expensive. Indeed It Is beyond the reach of the average good man with a family to support. He can Indulge In It only on occasional holidays or very early In 'the morn ing at the expense of his iteep ration perhaps. I give you a game that has every health advantage and no health drawback that I know of; a game that may be played on any vacant lot, or In your vllingu park or on your private green: a game that fas cinates you the more the longer you play It: a game that promotes pleas ant social Intercourse; a game In which young or old, men or women, may excel; the game of lawn bowls. It Is Infinitely more scientific than alley bowling. It affords every op portunity for team work, for the development of special teams whose membera acquire specialized skill so that one member complements the part of another, and all together win In contests with other teams" There Is nothing of that In alley bowling, even If we concede that a certain dexterity or skill ii desirable In knocking over the pins. A bowling green costs all the way from nothing up to ten or fifteen thousand dollars to build. The busi nessmen In one neighborhood ob tained from the village the privilege of a suitable bit of reclaimed ground, and built their own bowling green and now enjoy It with their fam ilies and visiting bowling clubs. Any village four .corners where there are enough' men to man a horseshoe pitching game may as well have bowling green and let everybody have a chance to play. The- bowls are not spherical but biased, so that one must always fig ure the curves of one's shot.and that Is where the fascination of this game comes In. Bowling on the green would seem to be the Ideal national game. ' QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Be Yourself I see you offer to give-the form ula used for the ambulant treat ment of hernia to physicians who desire same . . . (......-, M. D.) Answer No, I am glad to give any physician the simple formula If the doctor asks for it, and Incloses stamped envelope bearing his ad dress. The formula, however, la a minor feature. The Important part of the technic Is the method of sup port and the method of Injection. Any doctor can prepare the medi cine himself and Its cost la trivial. I warn both doctors and laymen to beware of secret or semi-secret nos trums purporting to be for this In jection treatment, when there Is a fancy price charged for tlis nostrum. Fast Youth Son 38, has just one bad habit. staying out nights until 3 and 3 o'clock. He has to be up and on the Job every morning at 8 o'clock. We think his way will rob him of his health. He Insists he gets plenty of sleep. (J. O.) Answer When we have good health we are foolish about abusing It. When we have lost It we are Just as fool ish about trying nostrums to restore it. Mature adults may get along fairly well with only seven hours' sleep. Elderly folk need less, six or five hours perhaps. Younger adults need more, eight. Youths In their 'teens need nine to 10 hours' sleep. Persons who work or play hard (phys ically) need more sleep than persons who lead a sedentary life. A white collar man can keep his health, such as It Is, on shorter sleep rations than a real man In overalls requires to keep it. NLW YORK DAY BY DAY 3y O. O. Mclntyre J' NEW YORK, Dec. 7. In the hail fellow circles they are called the "cut in boys." Highly polished, correctly spruce fellows who are found at the choice cafe tables with orch idaceous com- panlons. Many are black sheep who have drifted Into this form of polite racketeer ing. Unlike the go rillas, they do not carry gats, and their conversation has a drawing- room hoity-toity. Because of this veneer they are able to scrape up acquaintance easily, es pecially-after a few drinks. At a lull in conversation, one begins to toy Idly with a pair of dice. A confederate chances along and banters: "Shoot a quarter 1" in no time at all a email stake crap game Is in full rattle. The come-on is invariably drawn In. The polished gentleman and his lady finally sug gest that an repair to their apart ment where they will be undisturbed.

Up to March, 1931, I sold "A" grade "milk pro duced In this same barn under Mr. Austin's inspection. When he forces me to put "B" on the milk caps he leads the pub lic to think that my milk Is of In ferior quality, which will prevent Its ale. He has already admitted to several people that my. milk Is of A" grade quality. Can anyone ex plain why he has reversed previous inspection decisions unless he wishes to prevent me from selling my milk? My place la open for public in spection at any and al! times. J. L. KERSHAW. Medford, Dec. 8, Route 4. To the Editor: There seems to be an almost na tion-wide belief that the negligence on the part Xt the state to mete out revenge (called Justice) for the crimes committed against It, is the chief reason for lynching. The pa pers everywhere, the state legisla ture and the president, hold to this hypothesis. Against the array of all these authorities, only a "nut1 could hold otherwise. Aa such a person, to him the belief Is so much hooey. "Vengeance Is sweet." The main reason that Inspires to lynching ac tivities Is the pleasure derived from inflicting pain the gratification of sadistic tendencies. This being true. the move to give the savage Idea of Justice (an eye for an eye) swift and sure application as a cure for kid naping and htgh crimes, Is doomed to failure. The scientific approach to the prob lem lies In the direction of modifi cation of the social environment with a view of bringing about social Jus tice. 17. Is Is rapidly approaching real (ration. Perhaps In another few thousand years It will be a reality. That the amount of crime Is so small compared with the enormity of social Injustice, speaks volumes for the goodness of man, la humble opinion Of R. HEGNER.
