Efforts to procure a pardon from

"Oregon's Tom Mooney" '(nee Fred

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.

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 !

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."

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.
