A Deserved Tribute
MR. BEN' HARDER '3 re-election as President of the Cham
ber of Commerce, by acclamation, i a well deserved trib
ute to the hijih quality of his services to that organization ami
this community during the past year.
For many years Medford has had one of the best chambers
of commerce in the state, if not
the efficient leadership of Bill
Harder, Tiith capable executne work of secretary A. H. Ban
well ; what used to be mainly a hot-air and hurrah-boys booster
club, has come to be a capable and business-like organization,
devoted constantly to the constructive development not only of
Medford, but of Jackson county, and this entire section of the
state.
THE sound doctrine that what benefits one section of Jackson
county benefits all, has never been lost sight of. The equally
sound doctrine, that this is essentially an agricultural and horti
cultural district and the cornerstone of our prosperity, rests
on the prosperity of our ranchers and farmers those on the
soil has been kept constantly in mind.
Supported by sn unusually
Mr. Harder as President, in his
horse sense, and breadth of outlook, has during the past year,
established a record for achievement of which he and the mem
bers of his organization may well be proud.
T h fortunate for Medford
Harder has agreed to carry
hard work, time, increased responsibility, innumerable annoy
ances and irritations, in short it means personal sacrifice, of
no mean order, on his part.
But true to the Medford tradition, of disinterested public
service, Mr. Harder agreed to
for another twelve months, in view of the insistence of the hoard
that he do so.
Insistence is perhaps too weak
formation the board was in no
refusal.
WELL, anyway, it's all to the good. The Mail Tribune com

Had the League provisions been followed, an economic boy

But the present leaders of the League don't believe in boy
cotts. They don't believe in coercive measures of any kind.
They only believe in long winded speeches, hiirh sounding reso
lutions, and in words, words, words!
Which is why the League is so pathetic and impotent today.
NOT because it isn't right, NOT because it isn't properly imple
mented to accomplish something, toward preventing war.
But because those in control of it, cither lack the inclination
or the courage, to follow the course the League specifically
prescribes.
It is the abuse not the- use of the League of Nations, that has
made it such a symbol of impotence, in a war-mad world. .

LAWFl'L CHICANERY
It la often said, not without eir-;
cumstance, that the fellow who ,
breaks In and steals a loaf of bread
for his hungry
family Is more
certain of pun
ishment than is
the Individual of

trays a trust and
embezzles enor

the shrewd busi

knows how to
defraud the cred

keep within the
law.
Recent tendencies to grant a mor
atorium on mortgages on small
dwellings Indicate that ' we are be
ginning to recognize that crime Is not
confined to the masses.
Years ago a psychologist (even his
name escapes me at the moment)
conceived the Interesting Idea that
certain physical stigmata' or ear
marks served to distinguish the
criminal from the normal law-abiding
person. Prominent ears, beetle
brow, eyes too close together or too
far apart, asymmetry of features, re
ceding chin, prognathism, these and
other variations from the ideal or
ordinary stamped the possessor as a
"criminal type." But all that, along
with many other concepts of quack
psychology, has been discarded. Too
many of our noblest citizens quali
fied for ball and chain, and too many
of our most notorious criminals were
veritable saints by that criterion.
We know now that ultraviolet light
as well as diet is Important In the
prevention of rickets. Children with
rickets are much more likely to have
adenoids and enlarged tonsils. If not
properly treated they are likely to
develop permanent deformities such
as chicken breast, flat head, bow legs,
spinal curvature, knock-knee, flat
feet.
Ultraviolet light will not pass
through ordinary window glass. Glass

Lack of a decent place to play Is

BRREDS OPEN CRIME
apart from the alleged "stigmata of
degeneration" already mentioned, ac-
cording to the reports of physicians
In penal Institutions a remarkably!
large share of the Inmates present
physical defects which, In my opin
ion, are a real cause of criminal con
duct. Moreover, while a child la de
veloping a physical defect because of
neglect of his or her physical educa
tion or training, his or her Interests
may be easily drawn Into abnormal
channels, whereas a proper Interest
in the games or sports or other nor
mal activities of boyhood or girlhood
would make the young person that
much more difficult to lead astray.
Crowded, dirty streets, with the
ever present risk of Injury by auto
mobile traffic, the fear of being
pinched by the cops and the utter
lack of any order, system or equip
ment for play, offer a pretty poor
school for future citizens.
It Is lawful, of course, for the
wealthy to draw dividends from the

sort of chicanery breeds open crime.

Saltpeter
Is there any truth In the rumor
that bacon and other meats cured
or salted with saltpeter are harmful?
(Mrs. R. W.)
Answer No. Saltpeter (niter, pot
assium nitrate) Is used not as a pre
servative but as Indirect coloring
It retains and accentuates the red
color of fresh meat, In the corner
or pickled product. It Is harmless.
There Is no ground for the legend
which gullible folk associate with
saltpeter. It has no appreciable ef
fect on the body.

Can any harm come from sleeping
with wax ear stoppers to shut out
