Editorial Correspondence
NIAGARA-BY-THE-LAKE, ONTARIO, Canada, July 2.
The daughters had to Bee Niagara Falls, of course. And we earae
over here to visit friends, for the Canadian Falls are far more
impressive than the American.
Having seen the Falls many times in the past, the only im
pression made upon your correspondent, related to the brevity
and insignificance of the individual human life.
We first saw those same Falls in 1S88, nearly half a cen
tury ago. That mass of water has been falling with a roar and
a crash, over that same precipice, day in and day out since then.
To the writer that seems like quite a long time. Hut what is 50
years to Old Man Niagara Falls! Not the wink of a flea's eye
lash. Not for hundreds of years but for THOUSANDS, that per
formance has been going on, without a check; every split sec
ond, over that mass of water goes, and for how many cen
turies will it continue to do so!
"Men may come and men may go" but Niagara goes on for
ever. The individual human atom, may or may not consider itself
important. But sooner or later, it is forced to the conclusion
that in the face of Nature of natural phenomenon it is noth
ing more than a flash of light on a darkened wall, one tiny
gram of sand, along the limitless shores of the sea of life!
That isn't a particularly pleasant thought, but it is probably
good for the soul !
To jump from ten days in New York city, to one day in On
tario, Canada, provides a striking contrast in manners. As be
fore stated, the average stranger in New York city finds no
manners. Not once in a dozen routine contacts is lie treated
with any friendliness or courtesy.
But let him wander about this section of Canada a few
hours he is treated with courtesy on every hand.
We motored over to the Welland Canal for example, with a
young woman for guide, to see the famous "flight, locks" which
carry the largest ocean steamers up a "flight" of gigantic
stairs of masonry, and pour them into Lake Ontario from Lake
Erie.
The young woman guide,
and had a baby 8 months old, on
the flight locks with her husband, but apparently young love
in her case is still blind, for we hadn't travcllel five miles be
fore she confessed she bad no idea where "we were."
" So Ye Editor alighted in front of the next village store and
asked the way to the flight locks. It happened to be a fish shop,
and the proprietor happened to be selling a fish at the moment
to a woman customer.
Naturally we waited for the transaction to end before put
ting our query, but the proprietor, seeing a stranger enter had
another idea.
"Pardon me, Mrs. Blank," said he, turning at once to the
newcomer, said, "what may I do for you, Sir"?
We asked the way to the flight locks.
"I will be with you in just a moment won't you have a
seat!"
The fish transaction completed the proprietor, a man about
1 65, encased from head to foot in
stubby white mustache, came
and deference of a Hollywood butler.
"Just a moment Sir I will, call my delivery boy he will
be able to give you the EXACT directions." And going through
the screen door, he called, with that rising English inflection:
"Oh CE-cil, CE-cil will you come IIEAH a moment."
Cecil came a lad about 18 or 19 looked like an American
High School boy. "The gentleman wishes to know the way to
the flight locks."
Cecil not only gave them but
wrapping paper, wtncu proved to be exactly correct.
That was merely one example. They have some idea of mau
ners in Canada 1
At the flight locks the officials are viry kind and are very
proud of this achievement in engineering. Most of them, had a
part in the work of construction, and tiiko a real joy in explain
ing things.
Fortunately a boat came through a large, very clean Brit
ish oil tanker and it was fun looking down at the boat, and
then watching it slowly rise in the lock as the water rushed in
mp 100 feet in about 15 minutes.
We have an idea ships going through the canal, dress up for
the occasion so to speak for there are always spectators during
the day time. At any rate this boat was not only spotlessly
clean the brass rails shining, the wood work, white as milk
but the men were spotless also. One officer entirely in white,
reclined in a hammock on the after deck, and sipped a tall iced
drink. There were other members of the crew about, two play
ing cards of some Bort. It looked very comfortablo and CLUB
BY. The only men in the boat at work were the pilot at the
wheel and a lad who held a hawser and pulled up the slack
from time to time.
All in all it was a good ad for the British merchant marine.
From the flight locks at the Ontario end, one can sce the
entire canal, as it runs down, some 25 or 30 miles to the shores
of Lake Erie. From our conversation with some of the Canadian
officials we concluded they were not heart broken over the fact
that the U. S. St. Lawrence canal project was defeated in the
last session of the congress.
....
Excellent fruit is grown here along the shores of the lake,
but they claim this has been a bad year and the crops will be
short. There appeared to be no shortage in the cherry crop.
Motoring down toward Buffalo in tho evening, cherry sellers
were almost as thick as news boys at Times Square, N. Y
This river used to be one of the greatest areas for rum run
ning in the world. As we motored along tho banks, abandoned
wharves and docks were pointed out where during prohibition,
the rum runners pushed off nominally for some foreign port
but aotually for the American shore a few miles up or down.
According to our informant the repeal of Prohibition has ended
this traffic ENTIRELY.
.
Canadian prices for whiskey and gin are about the same as
American prices, but good French wines are much cheaper
across the Canadian line, and our friends in Buffalo happen to
be partial to FRENCH wines. We put in a good word for Cali
fornia wines not that we know much about them (or any wines
for that matter) but just to boost a bit for the Pacific coast
and then well, we are convinced that if one of these bottles of
imported French wine did happen to contain CALIFORNIA
wine, not one of our Buffalo experts would know the differ

EAT1.NO SHOULD BE
The artificial restrictions or con
ventions of civilization, like captivity
or domestication of animals, have had
a profound effect
on eating . Nat
ural hunger
longer control
eating. We eat
for other reasons
than hunger and
for no god reason
at all.
Social eating Is
a universal aln.
Who dares to de
cline to eat the
food offered by
host or hostess?
How often do
you partaae of unwanted food merely
as an experiment ln taste, type of
cooking or surroundings?
Pavlov, famous Russian physlolO'
gist, trained white mice to answer
the dinner bell. Not only did they
come to their feed at the call of the
bell, but they actually learned to
water at the mouth and secrete gas
tric Juice, as might you or I, at the
call of the bell, even though no food
waa ln sight or ln smell. Not only
that, but successive generations or
white mice studied by Pavlo7 and
Boldreff learned more quickly to an
swer the bell at last report by Bol
dyreff they were anticipating a bless
ed event and It waa hoped (as the
papers say) that the next batch of
mice would be born with the bell
condltloned reflex, that Is, prick up
their ears and respond to the dinner
gong without any teaching at all.
That goes to show what artifice can
do to Instinct.
Many younger people eat as a pas
time, Just aa some dead brains chew
gum or smoke. It la "something to
do." At present cocktail hokum Is tho
substitute for such gum-chewing or
clgaret-smoklng among the moran
class. But alcohol ln any form, high
ball cocktail, wine or beer. Is delu
sive for one who delsres to get fat.
because such beverages fill you up
but do not yield the calories. On tho
other hand, alcoholic beverages are
delusive for those too fat, because
within limitations alcohol burns more
readily than does fat ln the body, so
that every little drink spares that
much fat which you might otherwise
use up to furnish the energy or hest
required In your dally life. Then, too,
under the mellowing Influence of
slight Intoxication you are likely to
consume a greater excess of food than
you would In your right mind. Res
tauranteurs know how true this Is.
The bear and some other animals
eat to acquire a good store of fat to
live ln willlo hibernating. We can
only conjecture whether primitive
man had to store fat ln his body. If
the climate .was frigid he did; If It
waa tropical he didn't; for food Is
always available where plants grow

A SIMPLE PLEASURE
the year around. Of course you are
bound to store or accumulate super
fluous fat when you eat more than Is
needed for your day's work, play, ex
ercise and for growth and repair of
wear and tear. Although these func
tions demand fuel, It Is not quite ac
curate to say that we eat to acquire
a reserve of fat for emergency use
However, that Is what many seem to
do. Without any good reason they
carry, oh, say a 100 -gal Ion emergency
tank of gasoline whenever they take
a 00-mlle drivel Eating should be,
and Is, a simple pleasure for people
who have the right Ideas on how to
live. Too bad so many or us civil
ized folk make of our eating rather
a business and a sin.
If there Is one thing that can re
store the pleasure to eating, to the
mere enjoyment of the food Itself
and not the floor show or the drinks
calculated to keep you from noticing
how bad the food Is, it would be
Inflexible adherence to the rule never
to eat unless you are really hungry,
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Fumes of Lead.
I work on a printing machine and
have been feeling (some vague symp
toms). Is this work detrimental? I
am over melting lead a good deal of
the time. I.'S.
Answer If the shop is properly
equipped with ventilators It Is noz
dangerous. But Inhalation of the
fumes of molten lead la one of the
usual ways of chronic lead poisoning;
the other way la by inhalation or
swallowing dust which contains lead.
X-Kay for Fibroid.
Over a year ago I wrote about fib
roid tumor. Even after your reply I
couldn't decide whether to have the
operation or x-ray treatments . . .
had the x-ray treatments ln July. I
have never felt so well as I do now
. feel like a new person. Look
forward to reading your articles dally
, . Mrs. S. E. E.
Answer X-ray treatment will re
lieve all the distressing symptoms of
fibroid tumor ln most cases.
Is Ivy Poisoning Catching?
If I have Ivy poisoning could any
one else catch It from coming in con
tact with me or using anything I
touch? H. R.
Answer Theoretically there may be
sufficient poison In the serum ex
uded by the Inflamed skin to set up
the same inflammation In another,
skin, and thus one might say Ivy
poisoning la catching. Practically I
have never seen or heard of an In
stance of such spread of Ivy poison
ing. (Copyright, 1034, John F. Dllle Co.)

and better Jet of humor, a Mickey
Nlelan caper. It la a circle of pen
dots with this explanation; "A flea
nursing Its young."
As I recall Nlelan and Mltzner
dropped In at the Rltz together one i
long after-mldnlght. Anyway the
talk turned to footpads and Mlzner
barbed the generalities with the story j
of a long ago attack that resulted In j
the twisted Jaw he carried to his
grave. He had been wassailing at
Jack's and was wandering across 23d
street when ambuscaded. "What ln
the world did he hit you with?" 1 ex
claimed. "The Metropolitan Life Tower, I
think," he replied.
The old beggar "plant" racket was
neatly worked on a fastidious strip
of Madison avenue this morning. A
seedy bum ln Incredible rags shuffled
out a side street to rummage through
a refuse can. At the proper moment
he fell upon a discarded scrap of
meat and wolfed It ravenously with
eyes rolling. Of course, the meat had
been placed there by a confederate.
But the fellow waa showered with
nuch change and a few small bills.
This Is a variant of the old planted
loaf of bread In the gutter upon
which the beggar used to pounce as
theatre cro.rds departed.. In mendi
cant circles, such a beggar la known
as a "dummy chucker." And waa in
spiration for one of Arthur Somers
Roche's crack magazine yarns years
ago.
Floyd Gibbons, lustiest of the world
wanderers, seems to have taken root
at last In New York. Not only has
his permsnent address been the me
tropolis for six. years, but he has
maintained the same apartment ln a
Lexington avenue hotel that entire
time. Of course, during the period
he has visited Europe, the Orient and
every part of the United States but
that to him la Just commuting.

Questions for Perry.
To the Editor:
I notice ln Art Perry's wisecracks
column ln your paper of July 2nd,
that he kids Farmer Bill Carl that
he promises the people that If they
will elect him to the legislature on
the Independent ticket, he will save
Rogue river for the poor man, but
did not explain how the rescue would
be made.
Now, if Mr. Perry will answer a
couple of questions for me first, then
I will explain how the rescue will be
made for the poor man.
First Who dominates and controls
Rogue river at the present time?
Second 'Who should own and con
trol Rogue river?
Now. I realize that I am stepping
into deep water when I go to wise
cracking with Mr. Perry In politics,
as I know that he is a very capable
and shrewd politician, but he Is steep
ed in the capitalistic form of gov
ernment and the Idea that the dom
ineering corporations should rule the
people. Mr. Perry should let the
readers of the Mail Tribune know his
ideas In regard to politics and then
we could Judge for ourselves as Indi
viduals if we wanted to vote for tho
Republican party or not.
My Ideal form of government la
that any Individual or corporation Is
entitled to a fair degree of profit
ln their business, and that a farmer,:
be he small or big, is entitled to a
living profit for his produce; but
when It comes to a time when a large
domineering corporation grabs all the
profit, then I think It la high time
for the little fellow to step in and
grab his share of the profits, so that
he will be able to pay his taxes.
FARMER BILL CARL.
From Applegate.
Touth Skeptical of New Deal,
To the Editor:
Allow me to say a few words with i
reference to the article "New Deal I
Needs Friends," in the Medford Mail I
Tribune issue of July 3.
In that article It Is mentioned that
the New Deal has no appeal to the
American youth. This should not be
too much of a surprise. It Is only
natural that their attitude toward
the prevailing system Is rather skep
tical.
Everywhere boys and girls are get-
jng what they take to be an educa
tion. They are hoping, slaving, put
ting every ounce of effort Into some
fantastic dream, if It Is only to be
stenographer ln an office or a trained
nurse In a hospital. On them there
Is a yeast working, an eagerness and
ambition to get more out of life than
their parents have got. They know
where they are going, but they don't
have a fair chance to get there. They
have got a play, but the stage . ;h con
fused. They have to accept tad hum
drum and are obliged to spend the
best time of their lives doing Just
this or that. The young generation
has to Join the' CCC's, become Christ
mas card vendors or farm hands. Is
it then a surprise that the present
system, the New Deal, has not been
greeted with reverential Oh's and Ah's
on the part of the young?
