"THREE ROBBERIES STAGED; LOCAL OFFICERS BUSY. (Hd line Oregon City Enterprise) A sly and muffled knock. Eddla Burgess celebrated the an niversary of his not getting any younger Wed. Quits a number who have been suspecting they were Bolsheviks, but for no good reason had their ardor dampened by the news the Soviet regime had execuetd 60. who acted like they talk. This rough action caused a slump In the wishing to be In Russia. April weather continues dally, from 10 to 4. but as yet ' has misled no farmer Into doing his spring plow ing. Discussion Is now raging In educa tional and parental circles whether Kor not an unruly kid should be spanked. One side holds thst they should be, and the other holds It Is Dad who needs the spanking for suggesting thst Junior Is In need of a blistering. Qne male parent informs that his child Is smart. Every time he Is in danger of corporal punish ment, he waits until In position for application of the flat side of a hair brush, and then starts yelling: "Ycu're choking me I You're choking me I" Tills never falls to arouse sym pathy, and bring Mama Into the fray with a rolling pin. TUB "JITTERS" TO YOU. ( American Medical Journal) Seeing that every sensation and every mental Image or en gram leads to a reflex activation which may be apparent or not, according to the Influence or positive or negative inhibition: to every sensation and Image or perception there must. In con sequence of this reflex motor action, result a corresponding kinesthetic or postural excita tion of afferent stimuli Towing along proprloreeptlc neuronic sys tems from muscle spindles, ten dons, bones and Joints, which combined with associated laby rinthine sensations, form a sen sory continuum which Is Inti mately Integrated with the ex teroceptor sensory continuum on the one hand and the motor continuum on the other. Legislation la now proposed for the regulation of "highway Jugger nauts." Something also should he done about the highway Jlggernauts, If you know whst la meant. Pear champagne Is now advocated a a mesne to utilise the surplus pears.' The Idea sounds charming, and anyone who has ever became In vol red with Rogue River apple-Jack, made from surplus apples, will wish the champagne makers better luck. Distilling brought out all the barb wire end chain-lightning Instincts of the apple. The result would knock off a tourist's hat from the 40-rod line. A swig waa a regular Tar can of a drink. THE WOLF. A wolf was carried In a cage Through a city's street. Whence he escaped and hurried home To Woodland's dark retreats. "My friends," aald hs, "I come from lands Uncharted and unknown. Fur 1 was lost In the wilderness, A waste of brick and stone. "Huge biped beasti were prowling there, Sarsgr and giant-aired. Oh, It Is food to he once mom Wheie thing are clvlllr-vV Exponent of the "wrong combina tion" theory elates me by saying I do write sense sometimes but casts me right down rr again by adding that more times I write nonsense. About food com binations, for ex ample, I beg the question by pointing out that wheat Is a com bination of pro teld and starch. But I fall to ex plain that the p rote Id eon tent la small and wheat ordinarily not considered a pro- teld food but a starch food. And, then, how about beans? Well, how about 'em? What do you mean? If you have any beans that need spilling, send era to me. I'll spill 'em for you. Let's see what old At water and Bry ant can tell us about wheat and beans. You folks all know Atwater and Bryant's "Chemical Composition of American Food Materials," of course. If you don't, you'd better squander a dime right sway for a copy, and keep It In your home for reference whenever you wish to know about the nutritive value and com position of foods. Government prints it for the public welfare, only you must slip the government a dime for ft copy, whereas if your were a hog the government would xurnlsh the Information for nothing. In ths country we wish to encourage the health and well being of hogs all we can. So send your dime to Govern ment Printing Office, Washington. D. C. for Bulletin 38 (Revised). U. 8. Dept. Agriculture Chemical Composi tion of American Food Materials, by Atwater and Bryant. Acocrdlng to the authority men tioned, wheat contains 13 or 14 er cent protein and 70 per cent carbo hydrate (starch mainly). Beans, dried, contain II to 13 per cent protein and 00 to W per cent carbohydrate. Now as to the digestion of a sand wich a combination of proteld and starchy material. My critic solves this easily. He asserts that "starches are digested In the Intestines. Pro telds are digested In the stomach. The rule, as I know It, la to avoid eating bread, potatoes, rice, etc., with meat. The exception to the rule Is "when one 1a In good health." From the twelfth edition, 1833, of Howell's "Textbook of Physiology" I quote, under the heading of Digestive Changes Undergone by the Food In the Stomach: M. . . ptyalln swallowed with the food continues to exert It action on the starchy material In the fundus for a long time, so that In this way the starch digestion In the stomach may be. Important. The ptyalln la a ferment In the sa liva, which digests starch. Then, of course, the main part of the proteld material Is digested, not in the stom ach, but In the small intestine. A man can live without a stomach, but not without the duodenum or portion of Intestine immediately beyond the stomach, where pancreatic digestion, the essential part of digestion, tak?a place. So I shall continue writing nonsense about this, unless some of these food combination experts who get ther ideas by Intuition can succeed In showing the physiologists the light. QUESTIONS AND AN SULKS Indigent Knee. Saw In magazine an article concerning the use of radio waves, for the cure of Indigent knees, etc. Tried It with one chiropractor, three leading doctors and three weeks at magnetic springs with no result . . R. M. H. Answer If you keep on taking at rlously the miracles of healing you read about in popular magazines, you'll be Indigent nil over, eventually. "Radio waves" Is Just a trick name for diathermy. It Is & foolish policy to try this and that treatment blind ly. Wiser to find out first the na ture of your trouble. Your grocer or the cop at the corner 'can't help you much there. It's terrible, but you'll have to consult a physician. liny Specialist. I tried the calcium lactate but It did not help my hay fever. I dis covered that the tablets I took did not contain as much a your instruc tions said. I'll try It again next sea son and take more. Someone told me herbs are good, so I went to an herb specialist. He gave me some herbs and said if I'd make a tea and take It all through August this year and August next year I'd be cured. Tried It Just once. The taste was too bad do you think the tea con tains any of those dangerous coaltar drugs you warned against . . . ? Answer I do not know whst the trick "specialist" may put In his "herbs." Between now and next sea eon someone will tell you about spinal adjustment, pulling the leg, pinching the finger Joints, fasting, eliminating poisons from the system and condi tioning the climate where you live. It's all going to keep you pretty busy But you're a patriotic citizen; you want to give us all a break and thus do your bit toward relieving unem ployment. (Copyright, 1934, John F. Dille Co.) Ed.

Comment on the Day's News Ky FRANK JIONKINS IN THIS column a little while back, A this statement was made: "We will have our fling at the Idea that you can create prosperity by law, and when we find that It can't be done we'll go back to something like the old ways." M "THIS writer believes that statement wdc true. The Portland Journal degrees. It says: "When It Is stated that prosperity can't be legislated. It la right. But when It is stated that we'll go back to something like the old ways. It Is wrong and God help ua If we do." UOS6IBLY a "ttle explanation Is In X order. When this writer asserted that af ter discovering we cant create pros perity by law we'll go back to some thing like the old ways, he meant the old ECONOMIC ways not the old po litical ways. There's a vast difference. THE word "economics" frightens the average man. who thlnka It reers to something he knows nothing about. But the average man DOES know something about economics, and al ways has. What he knows, he puts Into terse, simple, plain language, and these plain, simple statements, dis tilled out of the experience of genera tions of average men, we call PROVERBS. Many of these proverbs, coined not by economists but by ordinary people, contain the soundest economics we know. HERE is one of them: "You cant have your cake and eat It, too.", Here Is another: "You cant lift yourself by your own bootstraps." And here la a third: "What goes up must come down." The same idea Is expressed In the saying that "one extreme follows another." 1172 MIGHT go on Indefinitely quot YY lng these proverbs, which rep resent the accumulated wisdom and observation of hundreds of genera tions of shrewd, intelligent, ORDI NARY people, whose common sense has taught them that there are cer tain things that caa he done and certain other things that CANT. But that Isn't necessary. The examples here given should be sufficient to prove the point. KTOW another fact: si Ever since history began, we have been going through alternate cy. clcs of plenty and want, and In our cycles of want we are prone to 'seek EASY ways back to plenty. Ever since self-government was In vented, politicians have been prone to trade promises of KASY ways back to plenty for the votes of the un thinking. IN THESE cycles of want, the poli ticians promise redistribution of property, as if it were a new Idea. The Jews redistributed ALL prop erty every so often. But they DID NOT solve the problem of poverty. THE politicians talk of the dole, X and Ret votea bv dolne ao. Rome tried out the dole, and nearly de stroyed Itself In the process. The politicians prate of Inflation. France tried out Inflation DISAS TROUSLY, back In the days of John Law and his Mississippi Bubble. And so on. EVERY few years we run Into one of these cycles of want, and In every one of them the shallower thinkers talk glibly of EASY and WORKLES8 ways back to prosperity. They find plenty of listeners, and In election yeara they find plenty of followers. But In the course of time, common sense prevails, and we WORK OUR WAY back to prosperity. THAT la to say, we have our fling at the Idea that we can create prosperity by law, without work and self-denial, but when we find It can't be done we go back to something like the old ways. The old ECONOMIC ways, that la. which have been developed out of centuries of human experience of the FACT that you can't get something for nothing, that you can't have your cake and eat It too, that you cant lift yourself by your own bootstraps. Then, for a while, we have pros parity. THE JOURNAL, apparently con strues the statement made In this column to mean that In time, when we've suffered 'enough, we'll go back to the old ways of the REPUBLICAN party. In the palmy days of the stand patters. Not at all. This writer, thank heaven, Isn't Tilde-bound politically, and would welcome prosperity as cor dially under a Democratic aa under a Republican administration, but RE FUSES TO BELIVE that prosperity can be brought back now or In the future by the same old nostrums that have failed so dismally In the past. Flight o Time (Medford and Jackson Conntt History from the flies of The Mall Tribune of 30 and 10 Year Ago). In the playlet but failed to appear, Judge Kelly also appeared as an ac tor. "Wave of Industrial unrest" sweeps country. President Wilson assures business "congress will not weaken monetary basis by new legislation." New charter for city ready for sub mission to the council.

The best financial quarters have received- tip from London that the Japanese have been trying to arrange a loan there for money to pay Rus sia for the Chinese Eastern railroad. The British do not care much for the idea. Their policy Is to float foreign loans only when the empire gets some trade or other advantage out of It. The London naval conversations lately have been directed mainly to ward finding a pillow for the confer ence to fall on. Our people have come around to the view that the only thing to do Is to let tshe naval Issue ride for ten or twelve months and sre whst happens.
