MEDFORD MATL'TTtfBUNE. MEDFOKD. OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1934.
RECORD HEAT IN
FIRST FEW DAYS
Monthly meteorological notes for
September, as compiled by W. J.
Hutchison, local meteorologist, show
a month of mostly dry warm weather
and rather uneventful as to outstand
ing features. Clear skies prevailed
with considerable smoke from forest
fires. High temperatures marked the
flrnt five days, followed during the
balance of the month by moderate
and somewhat variable temperatures.
The mean of dally maximum tem
peratures was several degrees higher
than average and dally mlnlmums
averaged very close to normal. The
highest temperature of 104 degrees
on the 2nd equaled the September
record maximum for Medford for the
past 24 years. A minimum tempera
ture of 34 degrees on the 26th was
the lowest for the month. The dally
range In temperature averaged 37.9
degrees and the greatest dally range
was 48 degrees on the 18th.
Precipitation totaled 0.31 Inches,
all of which fell In the three-day
period 33nd to 24th, and la short of
normal by 0.21 Inches. Although rains
were light they were freshening and
an aid to fire fighting In the forests,
but not sufficient to greatly benefit
agriculture.
The prevailing dry weather was
conducive to fires In the surrounding
brush and timbered areas. Periods
of low humidity on several afternoons
created a high fire hazard and oc
casional small fires were observed to
have started during these times.
Smoke from the burning areas hung
over Medford the greater portion or
the month, at times reducing hori
zontal visibility to about 4 or B miles.
Wind velocities wero generally light
and moderate with northwest the
prevailing direction. Total wind
movement amounted to 4107 miles at
an average hourly velocity of 6 7
miles. A maximum velocity of 28
miles per hour was recorded on the
22nd.
Light frost was observed on the
morning of the 25th and a heavier
deposit occurred on the 20th. Some
tender vegetation was reported in
jured slightly.

By tV. S. PAXTOH
6T. LOUIS Iff) A wistful, almost
child-like person, who writes of sim
ple and tender tragedy this la Jo
sephine Johnson, whose new novel.
"Now In November," has moved staid
critics.
Miss Johnson, who lives with her
mother and sisters In a suburban
stone house which might be old, but
Isn't, began writing verse at the age
of 16. A magazine published some.
She has been writing ever since,
her work including two unpublished
books, short stories and verse. The
publishers, she explains, were "cold"
to her previous books, written for
children.
Mkes to Paint, Too
Bhort stories have been printed In
Scrfcbner'a and the At inn tic Monthly.
Her ambition is to write and Illus
trate a successful book for children.
There are many contrasts In this
glrlf 34, who lives on a hill-top In
the sun and writes of lives below her
horizon.
She paints, too, and some of her
water colors were exhibited last sea
son at the St. Louis Artists' Guild.
"Painting's the more fun," she ex
plains. "Writing is hard work al
though there's the pleasure of some
thing created In either, once you vc
begun."
Didn't Want A Degree
Miss Johnson's education has been
liberal and undlctated. After graduat
ing from high school she attended a
girls' college, spent a year at the 8
Louis School of Fine Arts, part of
Washington university, and followed
this with four years at the university
proper.
She never obtained a college degree.
"I'd not need a degree except to teach,
and I did not want to teach," she ex
plains.
Missouri Scene Depleted
She has a favorite riding horse,
swims and wanders about the coun
tryslde.
St. Loulsans will recognise much In
"Now In November" the Missouri
countryside and Its blustery clouds
empty of rain. Its mortgages and Its
milk strike."
Likes 'Everthln(r
Aspects of Missouri farm life, ap
pearing In the novel, were gleaned
from close observation about her
home and In a visit to the Boone
county, Mo., home of a relative.
The authoress confesses she Is not
sure how she acquired the essential
tragedy which fills the new novel.
She hasn't read philosophy,
"I like everything," she said, "from
Katherlne Mansfield to Sinclair Lew
la." "Isn't it true that anywhere, when
you dig deep enough, you find trage
dy?" she edited.

At 24, Josephine Johnson is the author of a successful novel with a
tender, tragic note running through It, but her real ambition, she savs.
Is to write a successful book for children and illustrate It herself. She
pnliits, too, and finds It more fun titan writing, and she finds time to
take hikes and ride horseback as well.

to section 7a. Then Mr. Wilson named
commission which recommended j
labor boards for each industry (such
as Mr. Roosevelt now Is working on).
The report also recommended prohl-
bttlon of strikes In vital Industries.
That report la gathering dust In some
remote government archive today. It
never was acted on, and few people
c&n- be found who even remember It.
Another effort was made by Mr.
Hoover In 1030. He asked cessation of
strikes and wage cuts and got what
was supposed to be an agreement.
Speaking to the American Federation
of Labor, a year later, he inadvertently
confessed what a flop the agreement
was by pointing out there had been
300 strikes in the past year.
Mr. Roosevelt has been able to do
several things his predecessors never
were able to do. He may put over

Appetites are often temperaments;
affairs requiring coaxing and an oc
casional bribe. One frequently effec
tive Is a spicy seasoning that will
make the tongue tingle, or a deftly
mixed blending of delicious apices.
"Seasoning la truly the secret of
flavorful food,' according to Miss
Hester Heath, clever cookery author
ity, who comes here next Wednesday
to present the Mall Tribune's Happy
Kitchen program for local housewives,
at the Craterlan theater for three
afternoons.
The woman who knows bow to
properly use spices, extracts and flav
orings to make delicate seasoning,
may well be happy, because she has
the knack that makes a dish, taste
"Just right."
Seasonings vary with nationalities.
Early chefs of distinction In France
were Italians. It was not long, how
ever, before the more delicate Gallic
palate toned down the strong Italian
flavoring. In France the zenith of
seasoning, the real kitchen magic, has
been attained.
Englishmen are out of doors folk,
eat coarser foods, and have tastes
naturally Inclined toward wild game.
As a result, strong, tangy sauces gar
nish the majority of English dishes
Instead of the milder oil dressings of
France.
In Germany, the Individual taste of
the community was reflected in the
seasoning habits of Its cooks and
housewives. The vast variety of Ger- i
man sausages were Inspired by the ,
endeavor to match the tesxture of beer
favored by the particular community.
"Wursts" of strong ingredients match- j
ed the tart, bitter beers of some sec-1
tlons. Veal-sausage and braunsch-l
welger suited the lighter drinks of
other sections. I
Many Germans declare that the true !

ent flavor of soup lor every day lr.

cheese, came Into Its popularity In
Germany because It offered an Ideal
background to the highly flavored
pumpernickel and rye bread in which
German bakers reign supreme.
America has been made the melt
ing pot for these and many other
nations, and as a result, the Amer
ican house wire has as her heritage
the combined flavoring and season
ing possibilities of every nation in the
world. However. American cooks have
been a long time availing themselves
of these myriad possibilities. No
doubt this was largely due to the fact
that English dishes predominated In
the older sections of the country.
Also, native early American dishes.
