MEMB IK Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry Efforts to procure a pardon from a life term penitentiary sentence lor "Oregon's Tom Mooney" '(nee Fred erick the Ore at and Oliver Crom well) "have been abandoned for the present." Salem reports recite, "FOR THE PRESENT," Is right, In the light of revelations anent promise of $50,000 for alleged opening of the prison gates. e e Throughout the nation Wednesday was a pestiferous day for the women folks. In Dallas, Texas, four mem bers of the so-called "weaker sex" were divested of their clothing and Tigorously spanked, to the accom paniment of sopranlc squeals; at St. Joseph, Mo., an old-fashioned father. AO, paddled his married daughter. So, Just because she cursed him: and Jn Chicago, two ladles were sen tenced to prison terms of 180 years each for the murder of the lover or one, followed by the amputation ot the victim's legs, so he would fit In a trunk. The Chinese husband ot the amateur surgeon, promptly faint ed at the crudity of the autopsy, but revived, and has since eluded the police. The lady who did the killing was an accommodating sort. She testified she committed the murder as a "favor" to her accom plice, Bnd "rather liked" the de ceased. The spankings were adminis tered In the nest of anger and seal, and the killing a case of being pain fully polite. e e e Messrs. B. Bolger, Thomas Cul bertson and Secretary Banwell spurt ed from the CofC. to this office yes terday, bearing a vital civic message, v!-: Brmy bombing planes would ca vort aloft here August 18-25. They finished In the order named, in dire need of wind. The Paul Revere's are thanked for delivering the "Mes sage to Garcia." with the hope they will be able to run again some day. e e e Feathers set at rakish angles, and Imperilling the optics of males, pre dominate In fall hats for ladles. In a few modes, the wearer with a lit tle Injudicious craning of the neck, might be able to poke out one ot her own eyes. The quill, It ts feared will be Just as fatal as the late hat pin, to the eyesight. Once upon a time, so a story goes a lady was riding In a street csr. She turned suddenly and one of six hatpins Jabbed a gentleman passenger square In the eve. "Sir," she said upplahly. "one of your eyes Is Interfering with ono of my hatpins." e There 1 a rumor around, that at a recent formal affnlr, one of the participants was Informally knocked down. e e It Is getting along to the time ot tv i year when stray bullets, fired by stray boys, start scaring citizens a The vaults of one of the banks were "ventilated'.' this week to im prove the air.

Fine Work! rTnHE securing of bombing plane maneuvers, in Medford, is another feather in the cap of the Chamber of Commerce. There will be over a dozen planes and 130 men, stationed at the local airport for a week. But for the Chamber of Commerce, Medford would never have been selected. The three officers who flew here a w-;ek ago, had practically made up their minds Medford was too 5ar away from their present base. Corning, California, was pre ferred, fr considerable heavy equipment must be transported, and the officers didn't fancy 240 more miles and a steep moun tain grade to cross. But the C. of C. immediately got busy. The many recreational advantages of Medford were pointed out golf, fishing, swim ming and badminton, everything desired to give the aviators complete flying facilities and a modern, sanitary, up to date camp, were provided free of cost. Instead of letting the visitors shift for themselves, they were given a noon day luneiieon, entirely intormai nut extremely pleasant, and when the three officers hopped off for the south, they were completely "sold" on the "biggest little city on the coast." As a result Medford was selected. This will not only adver tise Medford once more as an important air center, but it will give the city many loyal and influential friends in the air service. ALWAYS being on the job, going after things in the true Medford spirit, is what has given this city, one of the best and most useful chambers of commerce in the state. The people of Medford and Jackson county should appreci ate what they have in their extended and revitalized chamber of commerce, and give it that moral and financial support, which its invaluable services to the entire community, deserve. INCIDENTALLY this securing of bombing maneuvers comes at just the right time. An important air base is to be estab lished somewhere in Oregon, and Medford is an aggressive appli cant. Yesterday Major General B. D. Foulois retired as com mander of the army air corps and Brigadier General Oscar Westover will take his place. General Westover ia another distinguished visitor to Med ford, the local chamber of comirierce entertained several years ago, and who has since always had a warm spot in his heart for this city and the Rogue River valley. Great oaks from little acorns grow. Great things may come from little deeds of courtesy and service. The Jackson County Chamber of Commerce never overlooks these "little things!" Oregon s Picking Up KJEW Deal or old deal, business conditions in the state of ' Oregon aro certainly getting better, nnd for over a year have been getting better. The state tax commission keeps a close eye on the business of this state. That is one of its important jobs. At the end of J!)34 it made a survey of the state and estimat ed what the state income and intangible and corporation taxes would yield. The estimate was $1,100,000. Later this estimate was in creased to $1,150,000. The yield for that year on July 1st was $1,1(40,504.73 over half a million dollars greater than wns estimated! You can't go behind income taxes when it comes to business conditions, for without profits there can't be incomes, and without increase of profits there can't be increase in tax reve nues. There is no doubt room for improvement, there always is. But no one can deny business in Oregon is getting steadily bet ter, which is something in fact a great deal !

Use MM1 Tribune want as AM1ULANT TREATMENT FOR RECI RRENT HERNIA Bill Hanley Day I7E are glad to see the 1'endleton Roundup is to close its show this year with a "Bill Hanley day." Bill Hanley is known as the "sage of Harney county", which is quite correct. But he is still the "BOY" of Jackson county, and the home of his early youth near Jacksonville still stands. It was from there ho started so many years ago to become one of the first settlers in eastern Oregon "as a kid hazing a bunch of horses across the sage brush", to use his own apt expression. We can think of nothing more fitting than that the I'dulle ton Roundup, Oregon's most famous and typical celebration should set aside its "big day" to do honor to one of Oregon's most famous and TYPICAL citizens. It is what in sporting circles would be termed a "natural" OILL will certainly fit in perfectly with the RoundupHiid the Roundup will certainly fit in perfectly with Bill. A larger delegation than usual from Jackson county should visit the Roundup this year. Not only because Pendleton always puts on a great show up there a show that is justly famous throughout the world, but because they will have an oppor tunity to do honor to one of southern Oregon's best beloved and most famous, "native sons." NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. O. Mclntyre NEW YORK, Aug. P. Thoughts while strolling: Orand name for a water front reporter tee Shippey. U there a real Fan ny Farmer of the shops? Steve Hannagan In m MaU mtjuue waul s4a. 1 ft M Five years ago a postal clerk sub mitted to the radical operation for bilateral, Indirect inguinal hernia. Skip all the fun ny words if you like and call It just double rup ture or breach. The Incision, he says, drained for four months and then stopped. A Fed eral medical exam lner pro nounced It a suc cessful Job. Later the young man happened to go to his family physician for a routine medical ex amination. The family doctor found a recurrence of the hernia on the right side. Now. remember, folk, the operation had already been pronounced success ful. That Is to say. the patientn was alive and not kicking- Stand to rea son he wouldn't be kicking if he were dead, but anyway the Federal med ical inspector branded the thing a huge success. But the rupture wasn't cured. If the truth were known, the per centage of hernia operations which prove futile would rather appall any one seeking freedom from this handi cap. At any rate, I should hae to submit to operation lor hernle If I were subject to the trouble, except as & last resort. First I should have the ambulant treatment, and If at first the Injections didn't succeed I'd try a second course of the same treat ment. This view Is based on my own observation of the effects of ambu lant treatment. Take It or leave It. It's your hernia. The family doctor found that the hernia was pouching in the upper part of the Inguinal canal and work ing downward through the canal again, though the lower ring was still closed. The dector feared It was only a matter of time before it would be Just where It was before the op eration. Here the young man broached the subject of ambulant treatment and the family doctor behaved quite like a quack. That Is, the doctor went up In the elr and expressed hlmsslf vehemently, calling the ambulant method quackery, and Intimating that anyone who recommended it must be utterly depraved . . . So the young man wrote to me for sympathy, forgetting that I never dis pense any. In actual practice the ambulant (injection) treatment has proved a precious boon In precisely such cases of recurrent hernia, coses where the rupture breaks out again after the radical operation. So I advised this young man to tell his family doctor, with my compliments, th.it he had behaved like a quack, and directed him to a physician who is skilled In the ambulant treatment of hernia. Here I must caution readers who have hernia to beware of healer who tell the world they ore expert in this method, and especially beware of pi rates who use my name in their ap peals to unwary customers. No one may honestly claim that I recommend him or his treatment. The only way you can learn what I think about a given doctor or specialist is by asking me by private letter. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Stuck With some Fancy shots. Through skin tests my friend found that her three-years siege of per ennial hay fever was due to sensi tivity to orris root. Clinic hero sent for material to give her Immuniza tion shots. While waiting for It she began taking calcium lactate and be fore the lmmunlzinng material ar rived she was free from all trouble. When she reported this to the clinic doctors they ridiculed her. She his had three shots. Why continue? She bought pure orris root and sniffed It and it had no effect. Neither have the shots produced the slightest re action . . . (Mrs. D. J.) A nswer 1 1 would be too bid to leave the clinic boys stuck with all that orris root dilution. The patient ought to- give them a break. Orris root In toilet preparations Is the cause of mysterious frequent covyzaa more commonly than people suspect. Sun Bathing. Ts the craze for exposing the body to the sun and wind conducive to the growth of hair on the body? (E. K.) AnswerNo. Worrying About What We Don't K now. Understand Insulin treatment to help a frail person gain weight may have dangers In future years of which we don't know now . . . iL. E. H.l Is it true that more than two hours' exposure to sun. even when the body has & good coat of tan. Is Injurious because of the action of actinic rays? (C. G. S.) Answer There Is no basis for either worry. When insulin enables an un derweight Individual to gain weight, the effect in future years can be only good. Actinic rays of light are ultar vlolet rays, the rays you want when you take a sun bath. (Copyright, 1935. John F. Dllle Co.)
