CALENDARS ' It beglna to look Ilka the calendar ahortage In 1934, would ba mora acuta than In the year now dying, when there are not enough to aupply tha demand. Pew It any, ever dreamed that the day would coma when they would hsve to take their rifle and revolver and go out and hunt for a calendar, aa they would a duck, or a deer. Many can recall, when every December It was a battle to keep from being burled alive beneath a tidal wave of calendars. It's not llks that any more. Wa can wall remember when our favorite railroad had a calender tor every month of the year. They were of a sufficient area to cover the north aid of modest barn. It waa tacked up by two members of the aection crew, with the day ticket aent auper vising the work. The next day the VIce-PreMdent of CMe-.drs would ahow up from Frisco, throw a handful of Havanaa on the desk, ' with his calling card, and remark: "I free we've remembered you." Its Just another custom the Depression has smacked between tha horns, with the oak club of efficiency and economy. The best bet for a calendar now. Is Dr. Jayncs or Dr. Miles, and these two . reliable have not had enough print ed, as they must ba wrested from tha druggist. Thousands are calendarlees, and no relief In sight. They will have to ba their own calendar. They can listen for tha laundry whlstls welcoming 10.14, and every day thereafter make a blaok mark on tha kitchen wall, to reckon time, and tha flight ot the daya. It won't make ao much differ ence. They dnys are all nretty much alike, and so war tha calendar. 77ie Setter 5fai by the Ship THE United States Chamber of Commerce again raps the the government returns to sound business principles.

No product of the human mind is. It undoubtedly has faults. It may wink at Fascism, it may flirt at times with communism, it may do this and that and the other thing, or it may not.

What POSSIBLE good then can come from throwing a monkey-wrench into the workB NOW, and seeking to overthrow it!

Wa wer deep ly Interested be cause member of our family haa suffered three years with patns In legs. . . X stent a letter to the (let us call lt Health Building Institute explaining the case, and they sent ft representa tive t o demon strate the machine. He explained that when applied to the affected part the machine produces an Inter nal .heat which Induces the blood to circulate more actively In the veins. He diagnosed the oase aa sim ply due to poor circulation In the legs. Also he said that U It is not attended to sciatica may result or & collapse of the veins which may make amputation necessary. You well Imagine, Dr. Brady, how we felt when we heard this. But he told us the condition Is still curable, only we must decide quickly whether to rent or buy te machine. The price seems exorbitant but that would be a secondary consideration If It cures. (P. G.) Bo far aa the application of dia thermy is concerned apparatus at leaBt as efficient aa such use requires may be bought outright for approxi mately the sum this faker would soak the gullible people for a months rental! Notice how the quacks machinery works. First, the renegade pfcylcan or the trick "doctor" who baa just come by the title as aristocratic gentlemen used to come by the title of "Colo nel" down south, goes Into ft huddle with himself or another bird of hla feather and adopts some such Im posing name as 'clinic," "Institute," "certfled medical specialists" or "na tional health builders." Then the impersonal firm or corporation buys some time on the air from gyp radio stations. If a thousand' persons lis ten to the 'program" the chances are that one or two will be taken In nnri thnrtA hnrtkvl suckers must pay for the whole works If the racket Is to be ft going one.

Mrs. Barto Is reading one chapter at each meeting. Members of . Enterprise Orange would like to meet Lem Wilson and would welcome his presence at their meeting when he could find time to attend. They are also looking for ward to the pleasure of having A. H. Banwell, secretary of the Medford Chamber of commerce, and the Med ford Oleemen'a visit. James Morgan was obligated tn the first and second degrees and Eve lyn Ringer and John Ross Palmer were given Instructions In the third and fourth degrees by Master Moore. It was decided not to have any more public dances at Enterprise Orange hall until the state legis lature, now In session., had passed constructive legislation In regard to the sale and use of liquor.

OREGON, WEDNESDAY, HIS SPADE WORK hand over their loorie change he added the threat that unless they swelled out in a hurry Oramp would be stamping around yelling for ex pensive new artificial limbs. . . . I should pay no particular atten tion to this inquiry were It not for the fact that I have promoted dia thermy, both medical and surgical, with all the enthusiasm the method of treatment deserves. Now I wish to warn all readers against Vie mach inations of charlatans who seek to exploit credulous laymen on the strength of the good name I have given this method of treatment. In many Instances the application of diathermy by the physician will give grateful relief to pain and soreness In such cases as the correspondent mentions, but do not believe that diathermy can cure such Illnesses; If it is used at all It Is but a minor part of the treatment required to bring about recovery. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Acne and X-rays In your helpful monograph on "Blackheads and Pimples" you men tion the value of X-ray treatments in many cases. Must one go to a hospital for such treatments 8. R. Answer. No, your physician should give such treatment. One skin spe cialist, summarizing his experience, says "My statistics show that X-rays will permanently cure 87 per cent of unaelected cases (of acne) in four months or less without Injury to the skin. Without X-rays the percent age of cures drops below 00." Freedom of the Hips In enjoy the freedom and ease that comes with discarding of restricting garments, especially girdles and cor sets. But many friends tell me my figure will spread and become un gainly about the hips If I go with out adequate support. (Mrs. O. K.) Ana. By omitting the artificial supports you train your own muscles to support you, and nothing neater or more graceful In the way of gir dle, corset or corselet has been dis covered. Well trained muscles keep the figure trim and resilient. T.he way to do is omit the support a little longer each day of the week, until you feel comfortable without it at all times.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS AN AIRPLANE, apparently out of control, narrowly misses Buck ingham palace, the residence of the king and queen of England. Think what a aensatlon It would have oaused If the plane had crashed into tha palace, KILLING the king and queen. Every newspsper in tha world would have used up all Ita black type (or headlines, and the air would fairly have crackled with radio mes sages. YET tha actual loss to tha world through the death of the king and queen of England would be leas thsn the loss by death of aome hard working, hard-headed business msn upon whose ability aa a good manager the Joba of some half a hundred peo ple depend. AIRPLANES are' In the newa today. Over tha clicking wires cornea this paragraph: "Braving a raging storm to get the mails through, two planes of the Transcontinental and Western Air Lines crashed In the snow-swept Allegheny mountains In Pennsylvania today, the pllota 'bail ing out' safely." "Balling out," aa of course you know, means Jumping out with parachute: which takes nerve and quick thinking. Those without nerve and quick thinking don't last long as pllota. - - NT OTB that these plsnes braved raging storm to GET THE MAILS THROUGH. What a lot of heroism hsa been displayed In this country In the past couple of hundred yeara In getting the malla through I If tha complete story of the heroism of the carriers of the mall could be told, It would be one of the most fascinating tales ever written. THESE pilots braved a raging storm to est the mails through. That la nothing new In the annals of the postal service. If you have crossed 'the wind-swept McKenzle pasa, which threads Its way across the. Cascades over stark, bare lava fields, around the feet of great white snow peaks, you must have j noted a modest little monument be side the road up on tha summit. It marks the apot where Tom Craig, CARRIER OP THE MAIL, gave up his life. IT WAS Tom Craig's business to carry the mall across the moun tains, In winter, on foot, and he faced a raging storm back in his day Just as unhesitatingly as these pilots who crashed In Pennsylvania. THESE plsnes that crashed were brought down by Ice crusting on - the wings under a falling tempera ture one of the ever-present hazards of winter flying. When dene Burford, one of the pilots, trusting to his parachute, went over the side, he gathered In his arms all the mall he could hold and Jump ed wltb It. When he landed, Ms first act waa to deliver It to the nearest postofflce. The politicians, who run the post- office department aren't always a par ticularly edifying apectacle, but the men who do the actual Job of carry ing the malla are a grand lot and alwaya have been. Communications Support of Knox Plan Endorsed To the Editor: Your editorial, In your Sunday paper,' urging the people to stand back of and honor the new Knox liquor control law expresses good citizenship principles. If the press of the varloua wet atatea take the same stand toward their liquor laws and keep everlastingly at It what a tremendous Influence they would wield. Since reading this moet timely edi torial I have been wondering to Just what extent the influence of the Medford Mall Tribune, together with the other papers ot the land, would have been on the enforcement of tha Eighteenth Amendment had you adopted and urged upon the people the same high Ideala as shown In the above mentioned editorial. Newa papera aa well aa Individuals demand respect when they atand by the lawa of the land. Stand by your high Ideals and by ao doing you may re deem yourself to some extent. H. L. GILLETTE. Medford.

Ed. note: The Mell Tribune consist ently urged the support of the 13th amendment, until It waa plain that the people aa a whole would not aup port It: thsn the Mall Tribune fa vored repeal Instead of nullification.
