THE overwhelming victory of the sewage disposal bonds it
gratifying. 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.

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.

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.

temperatures averaged near normal
but with a high mean minimum the
monthly mean temperature of 48.8
degrees surpassed the average by 3.8
degrees. A maximum of 74 degrees
