It la now alleged by the painfully polite portion of the atate presa that the "legislature has never received but alighting consideration from the jounU of public opinion."

One great and po tent truth is missing from the lists. Tic: "DEATH IB ALWAYS PERMA NENT."

Listen Last Bunday three hun dred and forty-one of the hap piest Jolllest finest peppiest worth while regular fellowa that ever rubbed ahouldera with each Joy-brlnglng mlnd-lllumlnatlng aoul-stlrrlng Inspiring good time at the Big Brotherhood Men'a Class of the Riverside Presbyterian church of which that human-dynamo that won derful "go-getter" remarkable personality Jim McCarthy. (California Paper) The annual tax budget session waa held Wed. with conelderable oratori cal fervor, directed at the elusive nesa of the dollar. Economy waa urged, and efficiency demanded, with great gusto. Several asked "what will become of the country?" Nobody knew, but It seemed to be In the air It would make It aomehow. There waa no demand for economy on the roads. The lsst application waa not m auccess. It waa shown by A. S. V. Carpenter that In their present cor rugated condition, the asvlng Is not worth the loss In Jarred looee false teeth, churned butter, and atem bruised peara. Parmer Bill Carle of the Applegat spoke briefly for 30 minutes, and his remarks Indicated he wsa not as mad at the taxes, as last year, or the year before. Kelvin Hogan took a awlne at a power lawn mower for the cthse lawn. He thought thla was giving the "Machine Age" another halt-nelson on the workers. Mr. Hogan waa asked If his antipathy for mschlnea was strong enough for him to furnish the power to mow the cthse lawn. He did not answer, either In the negative or affirma tive. It waa feared that the mention of the word "power" might bring out some unkind remarks about Oopco, but Ace Hubbard resumed reading hurriedly. Dock Desne testi fied that In 1033 the urge for econ omy was too deep, with the result that there had been too much cut ting to the bone. The confession was short and snappy. 8. Morris, the T Rock.

Dunn of Ashlsnd remsrked thnt he wsa not Infatuated with txei, and held a great disgust tor the-n. He observed that this atate had been given two oppsrtunltlee to Imitate Illinois and California, and cut taxes with a Bslea Tax, but aame had been rejected at the polla. He aaw no hope for tax-a hacking The session was free of camp-meeting hysterica, and had no value aa a vaudeville attraction. Why This Misrepresentation? WE can't believe many people are deceived by the campaign of misrepresentation against the sewage disposal bond issue. It is one of the feeblest and most transparent attempts to hoodwink the voters we have seen for many a moon. Here are a few of the things being passed around via the grapevine by those who for some MYSTERIOUS reason wish to see the bonds defeated: That this is a vote for a $100,000 bond issue. That this $100,000 is in addition to another $100,000 already voted. That if the bonds carry, $25,000 will have to be paid some big eastern interest for patent rights. That a vote for the bonds means a vote to increase taxes increase water rates, put another $100,000 on the city's already large bonded indebtedness. That the sewage disposal plant isn't needed, all that is needed is to divert surplus drinking water from the city reser voir to Bear creek, etc., etc., etc. Not one of these statements is true, and most of them have absolutely no basis whatever in fact. DT three to one the people of Medford voted for one sewage disposal bond issue. But because of technical flaws in that measure, and certain objections on the part of the state board of health, a vote on a revised proposal had to be secured. Such action invalidates the first bond issue entirely. The present sewage disposal bond issue is for $100,000, and this is all that is, has been or will be voted for this purpose. Of this amount only $78,000 of the bonds will be issued however for the government has agreed to donate $22,000 in cash. If the city should be able to sell these bonds to some private bond house, so the government would not have to take them over, the PWA will increase this cash donation to $26,000. If the bonds carry no $25,000 patent rights will have to be paid. If a certain type .of disposal is selected, a maximum amount for patent rights will be $3000. This low charge has already been agreed upon by the holders of the patent. VOTING the bonds will not increase city taxes a dime nor will the water rates be raised.. The bonds will be paid back by a 6 diversion of PRESENT water revenues to a proper sinking fund. Whether the bonds are voted or defeated the tax levy and the water rates will remain the same. The only difference voting this improvement will make, will be a slight reduction in the SPEED of the water debt retire ment. Thanks to the favorable financial condition of the munici pal water department, this can be done, without serious incon venience of any SORT, to ANYONE, Medford has a fine water system and during the winter a considerable surplus, but if all the water available were turned into Bear creek, sanitary engineers agree, it would not be suf ficient to properly dilute the sewage of the city. Moreover to construct a line for such diversion would cost the city 20 or "30 thousand dollars. During the summer, when there is no water surplus, such a make-shift would be completely useless, and at the very time when contamination and danger of an epidemic is grestest. Such a procedure would be nothing short of criminal folly. AS before stated this sewage disposal plant is sorely needed to protect the health of the city, improve the sanitary con dition not only of Bear creek but Rogue river; improve fishing and thus stimulate tourist travel, and in many ways make Med ford a better place in which to live. .It will supply a needed payroll during the winter, and distribute from $22,000 to $26,000 in cash, in this community as an outright gift, when it will be greatly needed. There is EVERYTHING to be said in favor of the proposal and NOTHING against. Don't be deluded by the political pro paganda against the measure. Look up the facts, Mr. and Mrs. Voter, for YOURSELF. Go into the matter thoroughly from all angles. For if you know the true situation, you will vote for the bonds in your own self interest, and for the betterment of your city and its people.

She says she has Pry . been using pas teurized milk, and taking orange Juloe dally to prevent ecurvy. but finds the pasteurised milk doesn't agree with her (whatever that may mean) aa well aa raw or certified mil does. But ahe a little afraid that the dairy wh.nM lha rArt.lfleil milk CODIH mBV hiM ntvir enwa well as the certi fied herd. Bo she would like to heat the jnllk to make aure it win not carry any germs. Another reader sends cUDBlng Of a picture showing handsome baby standing with one hand resting on the top or a nuge ooitio 01 biub. The milk la represented as contain' Ins "all the body building and en. ergy producing materials" the baby t.ir. u,rn he consumes a auart of milk, to-wlt, "50 per cent fat calo ries, SO per cent caroo-nyaraw caio rlea and 20 per cent protein calorlea" which ta sheer nonsense and. I tnlnk. Intentionally misleading. The tlgurea sound big to the untutored layman. But they don't mean much after all. A pint of milk, two large glass ful, viniri nan calories. A handful of peanuts yields 420 calorlea. It Is true, though, that the 330 calorlea In a pint of milk, the fat yields ap- nwlmitlv IKS pnlnrles. the latOSS Or milk sugar 100 and the protein 65 but who carea aoous maw caiougu tnr ,n one to know that a good sized apple, orange or banana yields approximately the same amount of energy, calories, nutritive value, food ?itiM heat, bulldlna- material, fuel or austenance as a glassful of milk. The first correspondent is iwnu nata If she can have certified milk, for that la the finest grade of milk in every respect. It does not require heating, boiling, par-bolllng or other treatment to kill germs In It, for If the milk contained any harmful germs It would not be certified. Pasteurizing milk means almply h.atinir the mlllc to 145 degrees F. tor from 30 to 30 minutes, then let ling It cool again. This parboiling is enough heat to kill typhoid, tubercle diphtheria bacilli, atreptococl or the germ of unduiant lever. Such parboiling, although necessary maira nrrtlnnrv market milk safe. altera the character of the milk, the taste, the digestibility, . the vitamin content. As effective In destroying A Fine Idea, but- A. C. BOTCH makes an interesting suggestion in another column of today's paper. He favors a United States of the world, to include a union of the British empire and the United States, with a common capital at "Washington, D. C., or Toronto. In his title, we fear, Mr. Burch takes in too much territory. A union of the English speaking peoples could hardly be termed a United States of the WORLD. Nor do we believe such a union would be practical, or at this stage of the game, even possible. So we would drop the "world' idea and also drop the idea of merging these two great nations into one. a OUT as the world is rushing toward an abyss of war and socisl confusion, we would, AND DO, strongly favor an adoption of the central idea, which would be the STRONGEST POS SIBLE ALLIANCE between Great Britain and the United States, for the essential purpose of promoting world peace and preventing war. a FUNDAMENTALLY the two countries have identical pur- poses and ideals. They talk the same language both liter ally and figuratively. They are not looking for mnre lands to conquer, they are devoted to liberty and to peace. If such an alliance were to be affected, no one nation or com bination of nations, could successfully oppose it. These two countries would have a combined army and navy, that would render its international authority supreme. When it gave orders to any other country those orders would be obeyed. At the present moment with such a combination realized Japan would at once abandon all idea of competing on the sea. Any nation threatening war in Europe could be brought to time, by an Anglo-American ultimatum, of not more than 100 words. In fact nothing would do more for world salvation, the estab lishment of world security and peace, than such an alliance. But while to us the wisdom of such action is perfectly plain, with HUMAN NATURE WHAT IT IS-AND SUPER NATIONALISM ALSO i appears to us ALMOST an impos sible task to bring it about; germs In milk, Is bringing the milk to a boll for one minute only, then cool lng. This Is lesa destructive to vita min O than la parboiling (pasteuris ing). It Is easy for any housewife to boll the milk for one minute If she wishes to make sure It will be safe no matter what the source of the milk. Some vendors attempt to make the Ignorant customer believe pasteuriz ing somehow Improves the quality or value of milk. On the contrary, It lowers both. But pasteurization Is Indispensable to make low grade milk safe for human consumption. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Rejuvenation, by Jingo For years my husband, has laughed at my Interest In what Dr. Brady says, He has always maintained thai, you stigmatize yourself when you aald good doctors rely on the good will of their patient, while charlatan have to sell themselves to the public. But some three months ago I wrote for your Instructions for reducing, and I have now got down to approxlmtely the the weight I carried when we married. Now my husband says I'm Just a allp of a girl again and he is going to ask you to show him the way to rejuvenate, tool (Mrs. B. H. M.) Answer. I still assure you that Is the test of the good physician or spe cialist. A rational reduction regimen Is more or less rejuvenating In effect In most c&&es, especially where trte slacker flesh has accumulated grad ually after 30 or 35. Instructions are given in the booklet, "Design for Dwindling." Bend 10 cents In coin (no stamps) and a 8-cent stamped self -addressed envelope and ask for a copy. Quack Hernia Specialists Correspondent sends In a folder peddled by a quask hernia specialist, and writes on It. "I took 20 treat ments at S10 a visit. Think I could take 20 more and still be no better off . . Ans. I think so, too. Again f warn readers to beware of doctors or specialists who canvass the public In any way for customers. Good doc tors never so so. The satisfied patient of a good doctor or specialist is suf ficient advertisement for him. More over, this quack employs a secret nos trum for injection treatment, ti llable doctors never do so, and I warn readers against paying the outrag- ous price demanded for Injections of such secret nostrums.

Herb Williams Is another knock-down eomio from va riety halls who clicks in drama this season. And Oscar Shaw, the hair slick Juvenile, la also going to emote shortly. The lounge of a theatre Is the scene of an entire exciting melo drama. And It's true minor dramas take place there In real life. The lounge Is a paradise for the Tux edoed petty crook, the sort- who snatches purses and purloins furs. Most people hurrying for puffs of Intermission cigarette are off guard. And the shouldering Jostle makes thieving difficult of detection. Julius Tannen's two sons are chips off the old block. Will, 23. has play ed with KM her t no Cornell and Eth el Barrymore and Charles, 19, Is turning out scenarios In Hollywood. Julius, himself weary of Broadway and Hollywood,, has selected San Francisco aa a permanent home. As a chatterbox of vaudeville, he was a stan lard act 20 years and his light ning tongue made him the most ac complished heckler of' his day. Orchestra leaders, to retain pres tige, must frequently change locales. Paul Whlteman, often at the peak of a successful engagement, will sud denly quit the city and be off. When he returns there is a gala home coming and dancing in the street. Ben Berate, a New York favorite, went to Chicago and remained a year. Rudy Vallee escapes into the movies for several months. Guy Lombardo goes to Canada and Jack Denny tours. As does Vincent Lopez.
