(Cortallts Oazntte-Tlmes) While playing on the field in Chicago between halves, most of the band wore gloves because of the miserable cold. (Even the football players wore gloves in that game.) The clarinet players, however, could not play with gloves on. As a result, four or five of them esme off the field with frozen fingers. One of them wss taken to a hospital and was there for two days. There Is so much talk about the old age pensions that a Nine West story can't get into a conversation edgewise. a "MISS 8KII8 13 MILES TO WASH DISHES' (Del Norte Triplicate This shows that kitchen sinks should be built at the foot of a mountain. 0 Many are stlU entertaining the "mild flu" epidemic, and feel like a masked wrestler had thrown them Into the fourth row of ringside seats The new superintendent, Miss Ber nice Oreen. took charge of the Sun day school last Sunday, in a very ef. ficlent manner.

In a basketball game against Drake. Long Island university sharpshooters aank field goals on all of their first eight thou, at the Doopl Down With Lobbyists? FROM Salem comes a protest against lobbyists. A bill is to be introduced, which would bar such wicked gentry from state house committee rooms and corridors. An aroused pro ponent of the measure deplores the fact there are now more lobbyists in Salem than legislators. "Down with them and out with them!" is his motto. Easier said than done. Moreover, if all lobbyists were expelled from Salem, the legislators would be the first to com plain, and when the consequences of such action were clearly understood, they would be supported by public opinion. For in any legislative session, lobbyists are not only desire able but necessary. If there were no lobbyists the representatives of the people would demand them. FOR what is a lobbyist f A lobbyist is a person, with a special interest in promoting or defeating, a certain type of legis lation, which vitally concerns him, or those he represents. True, the lobbyist may represent the Southern Pacific or the Power Trust, the oil companies or the commercial fishermen. On the other hand, he may represent, higher education, the State Parents and Teachers Association, the Taxpayers league, or the Grange. We live in a democracy and under a representative form of government. Every individual, in the state and every interest, large or small, is entitled to representation, and has a perfect right to be heard. As everyone can't go to Salem it is only proper that those who can't should send a representative. That representative is, in accepted parlance, a lobbyist. .... HE IS, we repeat, necessary to good government. For he can give the legislators what ' they need, information, the viewpoint of a certain definite element in the body politic, toward any specific bit of legislation. That information may be incorrect, it may be self inter ested, but if balanced by similar information on the other side, the legislators, can easily determine its character. .... IN FACT, the need at Salem is not for fewer lobbyists, but more of them, particularly more representing, not any special interest, but tho public interest. If we had our way every community in the state would be represented by its own lobbyist. In the lobby system there is nothing wicked per se. It rep resents aroused interest in legislation. It is the ABUSE, not the USE of the system, thai is to be deplored. Let the lobbyists be known, and properly identified; let those resorting to improper or corrupt methods be treated like any other crooks; give them one and all, their day in court, a right to be heard, and the lobby problem will quickly be solved to the satisfaction of all concerned. Releasing Criminals AST Sunday we commented upon the case of one Clyde - Stevens, as a startlini; example of the abuse of the parole. Stevens was first arrested at Pendleton, Oregon, only a fow years ago. Soon released, he proceeded to hold up a chain store in California. Arrested and convicted ho was sentenced to San Quentin for from five years to life. In loss than three years he was released on a parole. In a few months he held up a bank in San Francisco and in spite of a so-called police trap, shot his way out, with $(500 in his hip pocket. Now it appears ho was the man who supplied the automatics for the convicts who escaped night after beating Warden llolohan insensible. Yesterday he was caught after escaping to an island in the Sacramento river about 50 miles How long will it be before parole! The World Court llfKEN U. S. adherence to needed, adherence was refused. Now that the nerd no longer exists, at least not so acutely, adherence will probably be voted. As far as international affairs are concerned Uncle Sam has an aggravating way of doing the time. When the history of this period is - written, we have no doubt, the years following the generally regarded as marking the low ebb of our international policy and the low ebb of American idealism, a policy of selfishness, cynicism and isolation. Of course that war was responsible. The reaction from expending in foreign lands, such blood and treasure, was to rander any constructive political ders, practically impossible. When the memories of that sacrifice are less vivid, no doubt the United States will assume that world leadership which its high moral sense, power and prestige, warrant. Hut from the standpoint of maximum benefit to the world and to civilization the reformation will come TOO late. E PATENT HALIFAX. N. B.

J young woman re mark: 'I en joy reading your articles and be lieve they are sound and prac tical, despite the fact that you so disconcertingly call your readers 'nitwits' and 'old fogies." In the same mall a young man Inquires whether chewing tobacco has any 111 effect on the system If one is careful not to swal low any of the Juice. He goes on to say, this highly Intelligent youth, that If, as I Insist, there Is not ab sorption through the skin, then, if one doesn t swallow any tobacco Juice there should be no absorption through the mucous membrane of the mouth . . , What would the young woman call the young man? And what shall I call them both? Smoking has brought on duodenal ulcer complex In a great many cases; that Is, all tho symptoms that are ordinarily present when there Is an ulcer or ulcers In the stomach or duo denum. Smoking la notorious as a cause of hyperchlorhydrla. secretion of an ex cessively acid gastric Juice, heartburn, waterbrash. or what the dumb ones call Just "sour stomach" or "dys pepsia." The attempt to tell the great moron population that smoking Is the thing to bring relief whenever you happen to feel tired, exhausted, weary, wor ried or anxious about anything. Is gola-3 to do a 'lot of harm to the race. There are already far too many neurotics cumbering the earth. That's almost as vicious aa teaching tho unwary public that a dose of aspirin or bromo-seitzer Is quick relief for such sensations. It matters little whether the smoker Inhales or not. so far as tha Injurious effects of tobacco are concerned, in. ha 11 a? merely exposes a larger area of mucous membrane to the smoke, so that the effect will be produced NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.

(UP) After sev eral months In the arid regions of Turkey and Russian Turktstan, H. Wesover and C. R. Enlow, Agriculture Department plant explorers, have re turned to the United States with nearly 1,800 lots of seed believed to be clrough-reslstnnt. Last summer's drought, with Its frequent dust storms, emphasized the need for more soil-holding plants, for which these men searched. P. D. Rlchey, chief of the Bureau of Plant Industry, explained. "Because of the unusually adverse conditions for plant life where this seed was collected." Rlchey said, "we are hopeful that something of real value for our Great Plains and the Southwest .will be found in the col lection." Most of the seed collections repre sent grasses. or legumes which form a thick turf close to the ground, en abling them to bind the soil and hold It against the ravages 5f wind and water. Others represent shrubs whose root ' systems loom promising as soil-binders. PHILADELPHIA (UP--The year l9M Mw a nmt patn of more tntn 100 m thf number of newspapers in lh(.

This combined rejoicing and scoffing will provide a brand new controversy to take our minds off the badly overworked subject of the de pression and how to end It. For which let us all be thankful.
