Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur I'erry - Th Oovernor proposal. and the Oregonlan endorse, a plan for the people to eat more fish, In the In terest of economy, and to combat he rising cost of meat. Under the scheme every day will be Friday, the fishing pole Industry will bum, and doctors will be kept busy re moving fish bones from the throats Of th populace. It will help a lot, to Jump from a diet of Beef Hash, Southern style, to Pish Croquettes, a la Newfoundland, or canned Nor wegian sardines, caught off the Southern California coast.

Martha, in the course of a controversy, opined that Frances Perkins, secretary of labor, was a "mew politician." and the First Lady of the Land, "a head line hunter." The mother la an old fashioned soul, not giving a tinker's malediction, for what any of the three ladles thought or said. "I think," said she, "all concerned. Including my daughter, should keep their mouths shut." It was frank, candid, neat, potent, and timely advice. IT WON'T IH RT (Congressional Record) There is the further question of whether or not a dentist who mskes false teeth Is sub ject to tax. A recent ruling was that he Is a repair man and that his change, being a service fee, la not taxable. But a man ufacturer of glass eyes aought a similar ruling, which waa de nied on the ground that his goods are not true repairs, since you cannot see with a glass eye but you can chew with false teeth.

YKAIll It is Just fine and dandy to say that we won't entangle ourselves with Europe. But we are already entangled and an European war means an . American war In spite of all that we can say or do. "Never again" Is a fine phrase, but it will turn to dust and ashes In our mouths when the guns be gin to pop. Poor miserable witless humsnltyl It seems foredoomed by Ood to be torn, mangled In bloody death or choked and poisoned by It asses; with the machines that It has made and has not the heart nor guts, nor brains to direct, when the lungs of yawping patriots and the booming drums begin to fill the Isnd with mad nolsea.

Travelling via the iron horse hag one advantage. Ton can travel while yon aleep, which ii more than you can or should do with a car. In other worda you can make better time. But there the advantage endi. Taking a trip without a car is like taking a gnn without ammunition. The ideal way to take a trip would be to take the train and check your car at you would your trunk, the same to be imme- ditely available at your deatination. Perhaps one of these days some railroad will be smart enough to see this, but we doubt it. Railroads as a class live entirely in the past, and of all modern institutions have the least regard for their opportunities in the immediate present or the future. It was big news in Palm Springs this morning but it only rates a stick with a lrmchine head in the Los Angeles papers tonight. An army plane from March field landed at the El Mirador field this a. m. for breakfast and took off for home about 8:30. When about 2000 feet up it had gone only as far as the S. P. station, the engine stalled, thr. ship went into a tailspin, and the pilot bailed out landing to the south over the mountain, while the plane crashed in the cactus. The Western Union operator in Palm Springs alarm, giving us the details just there were two men in the ahip, flames and the smoke, the plane the two parachutes came sailing whether the two men had landed safely or not. The report was all over Palm Springs in no time. Newspapers are often ac cused of being inaccurate. But while the W. U. operator representing the grapevine, that exists in every small town, didn't.

Coming out after dining, two momentarily separated from the Spring street there were a few Where are you going?" cried ily party over the heads of the members of the elan. "Where are YOU going, dearie?" an old hag of about 78 Los Angeles winters, answered, She had an old bonnet over one ear, from which the shreds of a black wig protruded while har face was painted ur like a circus clown's. TABLEAUX! Some thrills are never outgrown. One is taking a limited train from a large city at night, with the porters scurrying around with the luggnge, the conductor and his white vest. watch in hand, the lighted Pullmans, the goodbye handshakes and embraces, the last minute stragglers coming through the gate on the run, the happy orowd on the observation platform. It is ALSO thrilling to walk up the length of the train and look over the engine that is to do the job, what power, mystery and romance I Yes there is a thrill that never fails. We are sorry for the railroad men who regard the departure of the fast train, at night or any other time, as merely a part of the deadly routine just another daily chore. Ran into A. W. Wamock, P. J. Neff's brother-in-law, who since the first of the year has been special representative at Warner Brothers, and was kind enough to invite us to see some "takes" of Warner's big feature, "Midsummer Night's Dream", but we explained it was too late for we were on our way. Mr. Warnoek asked for the latest news from Medford. particularly regarding the Gleemen and Jim San Francisco A nice sleep inebriated drummers trying to and succeeding. Walking up Market street half an hour after arrival someone plucked us by the arm and we were face to face with none other than A. C. Burch, who is here on personal min ing business, but who hopes to see the president of the Southern Pacific concerning the proposed tunnel under the Siskiyous, before he leaves. This sounded to us like a fantastic idea when first, broached, but after talking it over with Mr. B., it may not be so crazy after all. Ono thing is certain, it will do no ha nil to try. and perhaps there really IS a Santa Claus. At any rate, no one can deny such a tunnel would literally TRANSFORM Jackson county from the standpoint of rail and tourist travel. MARRIAGE STUDY OXFORD, O.

The enrollment tripled. Then, a group or senior men students, most of them engaged to co-eds. sought to enter th onurse. Professor Beiln could not allow them credit since they were without required prerequl sites. John O'Brien, leader of tb senior group, petitioned the faculty to de sign a similar course for seniors. In consequence, a course has been designed for nest year, three lecture a week for credit. In which seniors. about to enter life and marriage, may enroll.

(UP) Some day 14-year-old Lltterlo Farsacl, high school freshman, rhay startle the world by solving some of the deepest mysteries of the universe, according to Professor Floyd Cooper Pslrbsnks. astronomy Instructor at the Univer sity of Rochester. Since he tiea been eight.. Lltterlo ha studied astronomy, mostly by himself from books he borrowed from th library. He had to use library dictionaries to understand what he wu reading. Since he first began reading books. Lltterlo hs had strong desire to learn more about the sun. the moon, and th sky. When hs was 10. he prepared a speech about atellar spectra and pre sented It at a meeting of school teacher. On of th teachera who heard the Address was curloua to know exactly how well versed the child was In astronomy and made an appointment for him to meet Profes sor Fairbanks. Th Interview toon turned Into an oral examination with th boy an swering questions which easily would have stumped a college astronomy student. Th professor encouraged th child to contlnu his studies. When Lotterlo was II, he gsve a talk on meteorites before the Roches ter Astronomy club and later reed a 14-mlnute paper he prepared on nebula. He has cslculated correctly th speed with which the plsnet Pluto hurls through space, knowing only it given distance from the sun. He Is h only son of Mr. and Mrs. Placldo Parasol.

THE HUMAN HID A resder, wishing to obtain scien tific refereno or vldeno on the question of absorption thru the skin. vCT.--raeHI wrote an Inquiry V jp&S. i to th one-man rly controlled by the American Medial uaoeU tlon, and In re ply received a atereotyped letter without any In dividual's algm ture. running as follow: Within limi tation, (whatever that may not mean) It la possible for certain fata to penetrate the unbroken slcln. Solutions of drugs In water do not penetrate the skin, but It Is apparently established that certain drugs when applied In the form of ointments In normal fats, of which lanolin la a fair ex ample, may be absorbed.

Here Is the voice of the great American Medical association, made up of 00,000 of the represent ative physicians of the United States. No, no, child. It is no such voice. It Is merely the opinion of the bright 1 little man hired by the doctors to I edit the magazine. When he wants a notion of his to seem so he refers to i the notion as "accepted" or "appar- j ently established." Notice how the notion, having been "apparently es tablished by the omniscient editor, becomes thereafter a fact In the un signed anawer to your letter, my gul- j Uble child. We have no controversy as to whether It la possible for a fat or an ointment or other substance to be ab- : sorbed thru unbroken skin. I merely call attention to the absence of any scientific proof that auch absorption occurs. The old guard are the last of the grand old timers who were given to "pronouncing" things thus and an and having their vlewa accepted with out question.

It aaya on the package "Contains Sulphur Dioxide " what objection do you hare to that? (h. J. R.) Answer Sulphur dioxide la sul phurous acid, the fumes of burning sulphur, to which the fruit Is exposed in drying, for bleaching, and of course the chemical tends to prevent decay and mould. Sometimes sulphites are used Instead having practically the same effects. I hae no objection to dried fruit containing sulphur diox ide, provided one can't afford or ob tain fresh fruit or dried fruit with out the chemical addition. Personally I'd prefer to worry along without any fruit for a while. If sulphur bleached dried fruit were the only kind avail able. Transfusion.

These rocket would rise Into the stratosphere, sending back radio waves that would chart their posi tion and receiving radio waves that would guide and manage them.

( UP ) The vitamins A and D, which have been enjoying a vogue since science bared their hu manitarian works In the diet, now may be obtained without scraping the Grand Banks for cod, because further research has unearthed the fact that salmon, too, carry the vital vitamins around in their livers. The news strikes home here In Oaspe. where la caught annually the greater part of the more than 1.110, 000 pounds of salmon exported from the province of Quebec. Discovered by Chemists Two chemists of the United States Bureau of Fisheries now tell the world that salmon are as good as cod as vitamin producers, especially Inso far as A and D are concerned. Indeed salmon haa the edge, salmon liver oil being from five to 20 times greater than cod liver oil In vitamin A po tency, they reported. Heretofore cod livers have been re garded as most productive of the vitamins A and D, and a commercial Industry haa developed from the utilization of the cod liver. If the commercialization of salmon liver oil la undertaken authorities expect to make further onslaughts on dietary maladies. Famous Fishing Grounds The arm of Gaapesla, around which the broad St. Lawrence flows Into the Atlantic ocean.
