It shows that Medford is her old self again, enterprising, progressive, enlightened. The only valid argument against the bonds was the time honored argument of the reactionary, that the time had ar rived when this community must stand still or go backward, an argument that never has had much weight with the people of Medford, and we hope never will. The next step on the program is to speed up the preliminary processes so that actual construction may start at the earliest possible moment. Jt is highly important that this new siwage disposal plant should be in operation before another summer, and that its con tribution to employment relief should be enjoyed when most NEEDED, during the present winter. It's Not Law, It's Enforcement OECAUSE of the startling increase in auto fatalities in this state, many Oregon newspapers are demanding more strin gent traffic regulations. More stringent laws may be needed, but passing them will do no good if they are enforced no better than the present statutes. The state laws against driving while intoxicated, for exam ple, are very severe now. But how many times are they en forced t Very few. Time after time drunken drivers are let off by being allowed to plead guilty to reckless driving a far less serious offense. Also time after time where the law provides the guilty driver should have his driving license revoked, no such penalty is inflicted and in several instances, up state, the SAME driver has been arrested three and four times, before the authorities woke up to the necessity of doing their duty. - In this as in all other matters of the kind, public opinion is the determining factor. Until the people as a whole get up on their hind legs and DEMANp strict law enforcement, no material improvement in the deplorable auto fatality situation, can be expected.

Ri.-,. c ri nrw and used ,;et t:ic ttst t Medford Cjxie, as N. Ftf. An Eagle Scout who has entered college asks about the ethics of the" following case: Man, slightly intoxi cated, Is knocked down ami cut his head on the cor ner of a atep. The cut bleeds freely but not enough cause Immediate damage. The question Is, what should one do In the way of first aid In such cir cumstance wait for ambulance or physician to come or try to stop bleeding, disinfect the wound, etc.? The family physician to whom the Eagle Scout submits the question turn it over to me, but submits along with it the conclusions reached by the Eagle Scout and himself as to the proper first aid procedure In that and many similar cases. This Is what they conclude: First aid should be limited to 1. Call a doctor. 3. Apply compression to stop bleed ing. 3. Disinfect minor wounds with lodin. 4. Apply artificial respiration in cases of asphyxia from gas, drown ing, electric shock. 0. Make the patient as comfort able as possible. Compression, that Is, holding a fold of clean gaufte or a folded freshly ironed handkerchief upon the bleed ing place. Is simple and effective In almost any bleeding. The first aid care rarely requires the use of a tourniquet and It la silly for Instruct ors to pretend to teach laymen hew to apply a tourniquet to control bleed ing from this or that artery. Simple compression of the bleeding point or wound Is sufficient for the first aid attendant to attempt. This Eagle Scout (an Eagle Scout Is a Scout of the highest class) re marks that, although he hna Instruct ed many Scouts In first aid, checked their knowledge orally and by having them demonstrate the methods, and then has seen them get rattled when they go before the board of review and forget all they had learned, he believes If the training is simple it will stick, even In actual emerg?ncls where blood Is spattered and there Is real excitement. He would hate to have a person with Scout or Red Cross training work over him, espe cially if he had a fracture or asphyxia. So would the conductor of this contumacious column. Especially If I were the victim of asphyxia. The Scout or Red Cross trained first ald er would probably follow the faulty method "edorsed" or approved" by the dlletanta who run things, and place my arm under my head, and that would create a trap for water, muctius or fluid In my windpipe, and even if they finally called on the fire department to come a-runnin' with their Toonerville lung pump 'n' every- thing, the papers would announce that efforts proved unavailing and the remains were removed to the ere matory. , , , It Is absurd to try to teach persona without medical knowledge how to set fractures, reduce dislocations, ap ply tourniquets. Such little knowledge is extremely dangerous. The sensible conclusions reached by this Eagle Scout should be thoughtfully consid ered by the officers of the Scout or ganization who ordain what shall be taught In the way of first aid. qi'ESTIONS AND ANSWERS Not a Pipeful How much of a bribe did the to bacco and liquor interests pay you for rsversing yourself on the tobacco and liquor question? (Anonymous, of course). Answer. Not a pipeful of tobacco or even a drop of rum to keep my baccer moist. Perhaps the 1 teres ts are Just waiting to see whether I turn and hand 'em another wallop. Sleep Rations How many hours of sleep required for a two-year-old child? How many hours for persons up to 18 years of age? (Mrs. D. E. .) An Sixteeit hours for the two year old. Children from 3 to 6 years of age need from 14 to 15 hours sleep. From 5 to 8. 13 to 13 hours. From 8 to 13, 11 to 12 hours. From 12 to 15. 10 to 11 hours. Fifteen to 19, nine to 10 hours. Up to age 30, never less than nine hours. After 30 up to 40 or 45. eight hours. At 50 to 60 ssven hours is usually sufficient. After 60 from five to six or seven hours, depending on the amount of actual muscular play or work one does. The more muscular play or work, the more sleep required. The more "brain work" the less s!sep- re-: quired. (Copyright, 1534, John F. Dille Co.) Ed. Note: Persons wishing to communicate with Dr. Brady .hnulcl send letter direct to Dr. Will In m nrady, M.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS THE normal community In South ern Oregon does business prin cipally on three kinds of money payroll money, crop money and tourist money. Of these, tha first two are .old. long established and thoroughly un derstood. The third, tourist money, is newer, and by no means ao well understood by people generally. But Its Importance In the general scheme of Southern Oregon prosper. Ity la great. mjfOST people think of tourist 1T1 money aa going chiefly to ho tela and restaurants, garages, sport ing goods establishments, ate. True enough. It DOES. But the point Is that It doesn't STOP there. It merely pauses for a little while In tha tills of these places, and then atarta right out again. It keeps on going, spreading out like the ripples from a pebble drop ped Into still water, until In the course of time a share pf It finds Its way Into practically every pocket In the community. STOCKS AT M. F. AND H. MORE COMPLETE NOW THAN FOR YEARS PAST "Business conditions have so im proved that firms able to weather the first few months of the depres sion now find themselves on a much sounder basis than could have been anticipated a year ago." says R. M. Marti, manager of the Medford Fur niture and Hardware company. Offices of the Medford Fu.nltu.e and Hardware company, a home own ed Institution, today announced that their stock of merchandise Is more complete than for years. New goods have been added from time to time making It one of the most up-to-date hardware stocks In southern Oregon. This company Is now owned by J. H. Butler. H. F. Piatt. Will Hansen. F. W. Hollls estate, W. D. Butler, and Elm or Wilson, pioneers of the hard ware trade In Medford. Mr. Marti who has represented the creditors of the company for the last year has severed his connection with the Ad justment Bureau of Portland and his accepted a position as manager of tha Medford Furniture and Hardware company. The same well-known lines carried in the past will continue to be a part of the stock. New lines of sporting goods, hardware, dinner and glass ware, mining and orchard supplies, etc., will be added to this already completo stock enabling the store to be of general service to the public, A very attractive assortment of Christmas merchandise is now being placed on display tables. Selections may be made now and. with a small deposit, will be held for Christmas delivery. Olft packages attractively wrapped at no additional cost.

Q PEAKING of tourist money col sJ lected by the restaurants, here are some figures that are Illuminat ing. They represent a few expenses by a fatr-slzed Southern Oregon eat ing place. During tha month Just past, this place spent the following sums In lta community: Tor meat . . 1715.00 For groceries .... C38.O0 " For laundry 104.00 For dairy producta 385.00 M THIS place, which, aa already stated. Is of average else, has a payroll of SHOO a month. Its proprie tor aays that about half of hla busi ness, comes from outside the natur al trade area of bis town. That Is to say, It is tourist money. IN one of the larger cltiea of South ern Oregon, 13 leading restau rants, not the largest and not the smallest Just run-of-the-mill - es tablishments doing a fair business employ 74 people, and have a month ly payroll of 16127.50. It la places of this sort, probably, that get the bulk of the tourist business. If half of the business of the 13 places comes from tourists, It means an added payroll of some 3,000 a month. Many a community would do a lot of hard work to get a manufactur ing establishment with a payroll of (3,000 a month. THE Idea that Is here sought to be conveyed Is that the restau rants that get tourist business serve merely as collecting and disbursing agenclea for this new money. They take It In from tha tourist In return for goods and services, and they pass It out to tha community In tha form of purchases of foods, of services such aa rent, light, heat, etc., and In the form of wages paid to their employees. Exactly the same thing Is true of the other placea that get 'the tour ist's money,, such aa garages, service stations, sporting goods places, etc. No matter where tha tourist's dol lar la spent. It soon geta spread around all over the community. THHE prosperity of any community depends pretty largely upon the amount of money In circulation In It. Here In Southern Oregon, as al ready stated, we have payroll money, which varies up and down aa Indus try chiefly tha lumber Industry Is more prosperous or less so, and crop money, which, varies up and down with crop yields and prices. In addition, we have tourist mon ey, which varies up and down ac cording to whether wa go after It hard and Intelligently or Just sit down and wait for It to fall Into our laps without effort. WZ can't do much about the lum ber Industry, which Is either good or bad In response to Influences that are beyond our control. We can't do a great deal about crop yields and prices, which are also In fluenced by causes beyond our con trol. But wa can DO A LOT about tour 1st business, which comes In largest volume to the placea going after It hardest and most Intelligently. It will certslnly pay us to do all we can to bring In tourist money. Trlcrc'.ea get them repaired or pa.nted for Xmas. Medford Cvcle. 33 N. Fir. Phone S43. well haul away your reMse.
