Nobel Prize Winner Says
Inability to Prove Belief
Correct Not Necessary
Nature's Aim Astounds
CHICAGO, Dec. 37. (AP) Dr. Ar
thur H. Compton of the University
of Chicago, chooses a dlestio view of
tha intelligence and order of the
world.
m. The rioted student of the cosmic
VTfty and Nobel prize winner In physics
in 1927, takes the position that "faith
In God may be a thoroughly scien
tific attitude, even though we may be
unable to establish the correctness of
our belief."
Dr. Compton expressed himself In
an authorized Interview.
Plausible Claim.
"Science," he said, "can have no
quarrel with a religion which postu
lates a God to whom men are as his
children. Not that science In any
way shows such a relationship if a
religion which makes such an as
sumption does not have its own evi
dence It should not look to science
but the evidence of an Intelligent
power working in the world which
science offers does make such a pos
tulate plausible.
"It Is thus possible to see the whole
great drama of evolution as moving
toward the goal of personality, the
making of persons, with free, Intelli
gent wills, capable of learning na
ture's laws, of glimpsing God's pur
pose In nature and of sharing that
purpose.
Nature Inspires.
"It Is an inspiring setting in which
we thus find ourselves. As we recog-
nize the greatness of the program
of nature which la unfolding before
us we feel that we are part of a
great enterprise In which some
mighty intelligence Is working out a
hidden plan.
"Indeed, God has placed us in a
position to help in furthering His
program. For do we not hold in our
hands and control the conditions of
vegetable and animal life on this
planet and to some extent, human
life?"
CHICAGO, Dec. 27. (AP) A fear
of not being normal Is what makes
girls "boy crazy Dr. Karen Horney
ays she believes.
Dr. Horney, who U associate di
rector of the Institute for Psycho
analysis, gave this conclusion In the
Institute's annual report, made pub
lic today.
Thirteen "boy crazy" glrle were
studied.
"They reach out," the doctor said,
for love, not because the other sex
la attractive to them, but because the
adoration of a man serves to reas
sure them and alleviate their fear of
not being 'normal.' This fear mani
fests itself In a fear of not being
able to have a child and In a general
sense of Insecurity."
The Insecurity of "boy crazy" girls,
the physician said, expresses Itself
In a conviction that they are not at
tractive, although they may be beau
tiful girls,

Large numbers of Inquiries have

The avalanche of communications

Many of the Inquiries came from

public. Snow has lain deep in the
Rogue River valley, and floods have
crossed the paths of many carriers.
But the letters have never missed de

postcards he read during the time,
Mr. Warner didn't say.)
Started in 1903.
On August 1, 1903. he entered the
employ of the government as a rural
mall carrier on R. 7. D. No. 1, the
first rural route established in south
ern Oregon. The roads were rough
and transportation poor. In a funny
little wagon, which resembled the
modern milk delivery, he made the
route. Six weeks of the winter it
was necessary to desert the wagon to
go horseback with the mall In the
saddle bags. In the summer the same
territory was often covered with a
bicycle. During all the five years he
carried the mail, he never used any
thing "fancier" than a two-wheeled
cart, drawn by two horses, for the
winter.
While he was covering the Medford
route the late Jim Grieve was taking
the mall over R. P. D. No. 1, Central
Point, which was esbllshed th fol

Many of the people served on that
rural route are still patrons of the
postofrice, Mr. Warner said yester
day, mentioning N. S. Bennett, Polk
Hull, BUI Hansen, Mrs. R. E. Land,
the Ouches and the Lofland families.
The mall was always light, for par
cel post had not been established and
the maximum weight was four
pounds. Letters, newspapers and
magazines made up the pack.
The postofflce was located on South
Central, where the Klocker Prlntery
now stands. In 1008 It was moved
to the position occupied by the Med
ford Book store. Then in 1916 Med
ford was granted a new postofflce, the
present building.

He refused yesterday to describe the

After five years as a rural mall
carrier, during which time he "wore
out" 27 horses, Mr. Warner was pro
moted to the position or clerk in the
postofflce. That was in 1908, and he
continued In that capacity until July
16, 1912, when he became assistant
postmaster. In 1920 Postmaster
ueorge P. Mima died and he was
named acting postmaster and became
his orflclal successor in 1921. He has

December 81 he will retire under

to be serious.
"They owed me $22.50 and when I
went to collect It they got too fresh,
so I got mad," the police quoted Ku

Officers arrived at the Maceto
home as enraged neighbors of the

HOW
MUCH
Hi
YOUR EYES are your most precious posses
sion. They are the most useful and, at the
same time, the most delicate parts of your body.
To last through your lifetime you must guard
them carefully and give them constant protec
tion. To strain the eyes now is to lessen their
usefulness to you later in life. Your eyes were
made for outdoor seeing. Modern civilization
puts a tremendous extra burden upon them.
Good light is necessary for proper teeing. Wher
ever there is poor light, eyestrain is sure to oc
cur. Look to your lighting if you would keep the
priceless treasure of good eye-sight for your
family and yourself.
How to Avoid Eyestrain
GOOD LIGHTING Restful Light does not
necessarily mean a lot of light. Eyestrain can be
caused by glare as well as gloom. To protect the
eyes from glare, all lamps should be properly
shaded. With properly shaded lamps, excessive
brilliancy, sharp contrasts and deep shadows
are eliminated. Light, to be most useful, should
be well diffused.
How to Improve Your Lighting
EVERY time you turn on a light,
you are purchasing lighting serv
ice. The difference between good and
bad lighting often amounts to only a
few cents a day. But in order to secure
good lighting, proper fixtures and
floor lamps are necessary. Our one
purpose is to give you the greatest
possible benefit from the electric serv
ice you pay for. We are prepared to
help you with your lighting problems.
