Returned here from Lauder dale via Lake Geneva to pick up a member of the family who had spent the week end with friends. This is the queen of Wisconsin lakes, which has reigned supreme every summer for half a century, and as far as we are aware has no rival today. Geneva is a large lake, spring fed and therefore cold, wide, deep, tha shores thickly wooded, partially concealing some of the most elaborate summer homes in the Mitldlewest. These palatial homes are secluded, private property signs warn off the sight seer, to reach them one usually has to drive through an imposing entrance and through thick woods, before the residence is reached, usually atop a hill, surrounded by gently sloping lawns, which requiro the services of several yard men and motor driven mowers to keep in trim. AVe dropped in at one of the less pretentious cottages only about ten rooms, with six baths and a guest house nearby just as the week end party was breaking up. From the front of the house only the lake can be seen, and a long, sturdily built pier; no neighbors to right or left, the house is literally smothered in underbrush and trees. As we sat there, one or two speed boats dashed by, their prows cutting the waves like a knife, their polished hardwood decks shining in the rays of the setting sun; and a "skimmer" sail boat skimmed past the other way, two figures in white leaning far out, the tall mast tilted over at about 45 degrees there was a spanking breeze. It was very quiet and peaceful within. Not a bad place to spend the summer if one could foot the bills. ... 0 Southern Wisconsin is much drier than northern Illinois, and therefore the country is far less attractive. A striking demon stration of the severity of the drought, was found in the fact that all the fruit and vegetable stands along the highway which have been open year after year to catch the tourist trade, are all shut up this year. There is oc the farm houses advertise of the residences along the highway in the small towns. There was no evidence of any business this year. . . . After the recent long-winded tribute to Sister Aimee, follow ing her opening night here, we feel constrained to record the fact, that the week's revival has not been a success. Aimee packed the Shrine temple every night, and there was plenty of applause and fervent "amens," also a number of converts, but those who passed the plate reported hard picking. Aimee frankly admitted on the last night that the receipts averaged about 3 cents per head, alike displeasing to her and the Good Lord, t,s she decided to give an extra performance Monday (which is tonight.) at which 50 cents admission would be charged. The special attraction was- Sister Aimee giving the true story of her life. The auditorium was well filled, and Aimee in a new white gown, with the stars and stripes behind her. recited a nrettv jidyll of her honest, but humble her wedding to that Godly man of purity and righteousness Robert Semple, her pilgrimage among the heathen, her forming of Angclus Temple, in short everything but what we venture nine out of ten of the audience eame to hear. When Sister Aimee has to tell the story of her life and then not tell it to pay expenses, this confessed victim of her table thumping brand of exhortation must admit that Sister is slipping. As a side light on the present state of the pocketbook in this Forest City, we need only add, that the performance reminded us of certain gatherings held in the new Jackson county court, house not so long ago. There were almost as many people outside looking in, as inside, looking in rapt adoration at their "Messiah." In fact Heatty Park just across the street from the temple, looked as though tho city fathers had advertised a free band concert, followed by ice cream and cake for all! R. W. R. (Paul Ma lion, whose signature usually appears over this dis patch, Is on a brief vacation. Dur ing his abvne the column will be composed of contributions from leading Washington corre spondents.) (Copyright, 1034, by Paul Mallon.) WASHINGTON, D. C, July 19. With serious events taking place tn various parts of the country and the president far out In tbt Pacific ocean, the public Is naturally curious to know how he keeps In contact with the situation and how quickly he learna of what happens. It is obvious to every one that, through the navy wlreieas. President Roosevelt Is In communication with the executive offlcs In the White House at Wash ington, but the cloaeneas of this touch may not be realtrd. During his cruise In tha Atlantic and Caribbean the White House for warded Important papers and mes sages to the president by air mall over the Pan-American system, as well as by wlreleas. He received a big batch of mall while In Porto Rico, and he was caught again with sir mail In the canal rone. Mull from tha president came back the same way. One pouch was sent off by air mall when he entered the csnal and another when he left It on the Pacific side. These arrived In Washington the first of the wee-k. a dy apart. Now that he l in the Pacific, null la forwarded to him by way of San Francisco. It goes In duplicate, one set being tent by train and the other by air mall, so that, if, by any acci dent one set a destroyed the other would remain. From Ran Franclvo such mill as ha collected there Is forwarded to Hawaii by fast steamer. After this delivery the neit msll to be received by the prestdent will bs when he arrives at Portland, where he Is due on August 3. Mcaafa forwarded by wlretess are sent either "in the clear." aa thoie In pUln English are called, or in code. Quicker result are. of course, ob talned with the plain messages, but only because of the time necery for decoding. All wtrele.v. meases are comparatively ahort. but some of I them run aa lona as two nrun.rT typewritten sheet. To Illustrate the speed or commu nlcatlon. a dispatch has bvn sent to the president since he ha been in the Pacific and a reply received with in 40 minutes. Answers to code ms. sstte have been reoehed In about twice that time.

Many. rooms for tourists as do some birth, her conversion, her vision, velopment In It has been related to the president over the navy wireless, so that he la aa fully cognizant of what Is going on as If he were receiv ing the news at his office In the White House. In these circumstance, however one wonders Just how much of a holiday rest the president la having. Aocordlng to some of the Insiders, a curious situation hsa developed with in the republican party. Aa outlined by the new national chairman, Htnry P. Fletcher, It la planned to try to bring young men into the organisa tion and, in order to do so, to "go liberal" to a certain extent. But look ing forward to the presidential cam paign of 1936 and speculating on candidates who would represent this policy and appeal to the middle and far west, which It Is conceded must be proprltlated, the leaders are rather stumped for a choice. Ultra-conservatives In the pnrty, who try not to fool themselves, have pretty generally come to the conclusion that, unless things change decidedly. It woula be hopeless to nominate an east-em standpatter In 1930. and so they are turning their eyes westward. Strange as it may seem, the most likely and most prominent person ality that hss come to their minds Is Senator William E. Borah of Idaho. Strange, not because of any lack of qualifications for the place, nor even of age, but because Borah haa never been In the good graces of the ultra conscrvatlves. Whllo his party regu larity Is untarnished he did not go off with the Bull Mo ewers and has not kicked over the traces with any other movement he has never boen amenable to discipline and haa play ed a lone hand. In the past, whenever the possibil ity of his being nominated for presi dent has been mrntioned to BorUi. he has always purr ted the approach by saying, "Oh. they (meaning the crowd tn control would never hare me." Recently, however, since the new line has been taken by Chairman Fletcher, not one but several eastern standpst republican leaders have p.i vately mentioned Borah aa most like ly to meet their demands and the de mands of the situation, Borah s campaign against the NRA is right tn harmony with the attacks which have been made upon It by the Republican campaign managers and thus the Idea is further sup ported. Borah, an impressive and at tractive speaker, would be Just the man to provide the spesrhead for their assault. Whether the Borsh boom growa or not, it is a piquant development to find eastern conserva. the Republicans turning for aid in their q isndary to their severed critic.

PROTECTION OF HEALTH IN REDUCTION OF CORPULENCE Two young women who reduced to the verge of spirituality to hold their Jobs In the movleg, developed active tuberculosa and were compelled to take the cure In a sanltor.

It does not de- servo a moment's consideration. The only reason why physicians condemn a given reduction treatment or meth od Is that they know It endangers health. Certain methods which have on Joyed aome degree of popularity among Ignorant people depend for their effects upon purgation. Whether the purgative or laxative employed Is ordinary salts or some fancy kind of salts or mineral water, or whether It ts castor oil or an old familiar pill, it reduces weight only to the extent of the fluids It withdraws from the body tissues. That fluid Is quickly replaced by fluid taken In water or foods tn the next few hours. Of course If the laxative is taken repeatedly over a prolonged period. In time the Iojs of weight so brought about will be come permanent, and so will the Ion of health brought about by the abme. Besides seriously disturbing the fluid and mineral balance in the cells of the body, reduction treatment de pending on laxatives Irritates the whole delicate lining of the gastro intestinal tract, sets up colitis, shrinks the blood volume. Interferes with the calcium and protein metabolism. Many persons cultivate the habit of taking some kind of salta regular'.y. even dally. This Is unwise, except In cases where It is desired to dehydrate the body. In such cases the physi cian's Judgment Is essential. Salts of any sort, manufactured or obtained from natural springs, are dehydrat ing agents, and their effects are es sentially the effects of deprivation of water. In any case no good purpose can be served by saline laxatives or purgatives unless the fluid Intake Is regulated. It Is certainly unwise lor1 a layman to restrict his fluid Intake In any way. Only a physician cn safely or profitably manage such treatment. Where dehydration Is carried too far with saline laxatives a grave condi tion known as salt fever may develop.

The lion hearted courage so distinguishing each of them dis solves Into a shimmer of self c o n s c 1 o u sness wh-;n they ap proach the rustle and roar of crowds. The a t r 1 k 1 ng similarity of their facial c o n t ours extends even to the deer-startled looks they express when cornered by reporters and photographers. Miss Earn art 's delicate feminity Is not only accentuated by her thin reed-ltke fig ure, btit by the bouffant frou-frou of her gowns. Like Lindbergh, she goes to the theater seldom. Her recreations are tennis and goir. But most of her time Is spent In Intensive study of avia tion. Nobody knows but herself Just when she is likely to don her flying togs and be off for some tag-end of the earth. Her marriage to Oeorge Palmer Put nam has been a happy one.

Proper dietary or other measures may be beneficial along with the treatment of the gland deficiency, and there Is no reason why the victim of glandular obesity should not have the advantage of some such regimen along with the ductless gland therapy.

The trouble, he says In a statement Issued to the public, la due to "an element whose actual purpose Is revo lution, violent, bloody and destruc tive." 13 HE RIGHT? Or is he wrong? Your answer to that, of course, will depend somewhat upon your sympathies. If you are strongly pro- union, ycu will be Inclined to resent Oovernor Merrlam'a charge that the communists are back of the strike. If you are anti-union, you will be Inclined to agree with him whole heartedly. Nearly all of us, you know, permit our opinions to be Influenced b7 our prejudices.
