The Medford Elks
'T'lIE promptness with which the Medford Elks eame to the
resoue of the bereaved and destitute Phoenix family Satur
day, calls attention to a local institution which for quarter of a
contury, has been distinguished year in and year out, -by its
good works and good deeds.
During all this time the Elks have, quietly but effectively,
with no blaring of trumpets, but with uninterrupted efficiency,
given aid to the suffering and the needy, regardless of whether
or not, they were in any way affiliatedwith the organization.
While the Elks lodge is essentially a benevolent order, it
has always been more than that in this city, attaining such a
large and representative membership, that it has taken the
place of a city club, in the social and civic activities of this
oommunity. ,
In fact the Medford Elks lodge, for some reason, has more
clearly and consistently embodied the true Medford spirit, than
any other similar organization; and more than any other, has
never "let down" in sustaining that spirit.
. . .
HPIIE Elks lodgo has gone up and down as Medford has, but
A like Medford it has never lost its punch, its will to win, its
determination to '.'get there."
In good weather or in bad, its optimism has never failed, its
faith in itself and in this community, has never faltered. And
as the Saturday incident above referred to, demonstrated, dur
ing this entire period of a quarter of a century, it has never
been so immersed in its own affairs, or so concerned with local
problems, that it hadn't ample time to tend to any one in need,
relieve any ono in distress, no matter who they happened to be
The Elks lodge has maintained a record, of which not only
its members but the entire oommunity may well be proud, and
as they aro not inclined to blow their own horn, we feel this a
fitting time to do a little blowing for them.

many impossible things, that one is sceptical of all Dillinger

The false security
which this obso
lete rite gave too
often proved dis
astrous. Terminal fumigation or dis
infection was a well-meant effort to
prevent the spread of disease, but It
was established long before we had
learned about liuec or human "car

protects the community against ani

Moreover, scientific observation haa

not the health officer himself, toted
It about with great flourish, set It
up in tha hall outside the sickroom
door, sealed the cracks about doors
and windows more or less, saw that
all bedding, clothing and the like was
freely exposed, ran the tube from the
generator through the keyhole, lighted
the burner, and left it filling the
room with the volatilized formalde
hyde. But as already Implied, this
fearsome stench gave false assurance,
for cultures of diphtheria or other
disease germs exposed in such a room
kept right on thriving regardless of
the Impressive smell. So today you

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
The Cllnlo Racketeers.
Why do UU go on advocating
electro-coagulatioi for the tonsils?
Dr. t of the Clinic tells me
the method has been discarded by
all reputable doctors, for the simple
reason that It "doesn't get them."
M. H. ,., Attorney.
Answer Yes, and another employe
of the same racket wrote me to de
plore my advocacy of the Injection
treatment of hernia In his conceit
he assumed that Involved Injecting
parrafln Into tissues. Now, I learn
from a scout, the Injection treatment
Is being used In the same clinic. Evi
dently the brass specialists in that
organization labor under similar mis
apprehensions regarding the dia
thermy method for Infected tonsils.
Liquor and the Liver.
Is there auch a thing as poisoned
liver, supposedly caused by poor
liquor, anything we can do for it,
whatever it Is It causes stiffness of
all the Jointa . . . Mrs. M. D. F.
Answer Any liquor, good, bad or
Indifferent, poisons the liver, of
course, and hard drinkers are likely
to suffer clrrbosla of the liver de
generation and hardening of the
gland. There Is no cure for It. Medi
cine or surgery can only endeavor to
alleviate the sufferings of the patient
or prolong life a bit.
Lipstick.
Father object to the use of lipstick.
from the standpoint of artificiality,
and also he contends It la unsanitary,
because auch cosmetics sometimes
contain poisonous ingredienta , . .
S. E. v
Answer I agree with father. How
ever, some cosmetics contain no arse'
nic, lead or other poisonous Ingre'
dlenta. A girl or woman wearing
obvious lipstick and other make-up
makes the same Impression as does
one chewing gum or showing a dlr'y
neck. Please give father my best
wishes In his hopeless fight.
