Entertainment Included musical election by the Harmony Honeys and feats of male by Comrade Jay Oore of Ashland. Refreshment were MJoyed at ths cIom ex tfca meeting Why Pass IS money so plentiful, business that Medford isn't interested the federal government f That's quite a sum of money. it's not a loan, it's an outright for every family in the city of Medford " Doesn't Medford want it f All it has to do to get it, is vote for the enlargement of the city reservoir, and authorise $ti0,000 in bonds for the construc tion work. And if authorized that work would start at once', involve the purchase of materials, the giving of jobs, during the winter, when business normally slows down and jobs are few. In other words a total of $145,000 would be distributed here in .the city, during the winter months. F that $65,200 in cash isn't given to Medford, it will be given to some other district in tho state. For the money has been appropriated and it is going to be spent. Moreover by refusing it. Medford will not be escaping its share of the federal taxes involved, local taxpayers will some other community in the state will get the benefit. ' NOR will the voting of these bonds raise city taxes a cent. The bonds will be paid back by the water commission, not at increased water rates but at PRESENT WATER RATES. The tax levy will not be involved one-way or the other. . In other words it appears to be one of those open and shut propositions whereby by voting these bonds, Medford has every thing to gain and nothing to lose. e e e o 0 THIS is true. In fact the only objection to the proposal, thus far advanced is'that an enlargement of the present reservoir is not needed.'- Dispose of that objection and there are no objections. ' ........ Well who-should decide a question like thist It seems to us, those best qualified to do so, i.e. water engineers, members of the water commission, who have studied all phases of the prob lem, and finally representative have taken the time to look into Since the new water system engineer has advocated an enlargement of the city reservoir, as soon as water finances justified the expenditure. . . ' The members of each and every water commission have also favored it, as does the present one. '. Before it was decided to call an election,' the matter was presented to the Medford Chamber of Commerce, the board of directors studied the problem from every angle, and unanimous ly endorsed the acceptance of the federal gift and the voting of the bonds. There was not a dissenting voice. NOW is it reasonable . to suppose that if this new reservoir were NOT needed all these parties interested in' the city's welfare would declare it is I ' '''. Take the members of the present commission : . Ed White, Fred Heath, Sr., Bert Thierolf, Paul Rynning and Gene Thorndike. . Read that list over. To our mind it takes considerable crust to maintain that these men, who without pay and at considerable sacrifice, are devoting their time," to developing and protecting Medford 'a million dollar water system, don't know what they are talking about, when they tay, this addition to the reservoir is needed and should be built. Are they men who would be easily fooled, or would delib erately misrepresent a situation, to the people of this city. ABSURD ! . AND who are the citizens of Medford composing the Chamber of Commerce board of directors t Here they are: Ben Harder, 0. O. Alenderfer, Olin Arnspiger, W. A. Gates, Herb Grey, H. A. Thierolf, Roland Hubbard, W. F. Isaacs, E. C. Jerome, C. M. Brewer, J. "Verne Shanglc and W. F. Bolger. When men of this type go carefully into a question, con cerning the welfare of this city, and decide unanimously in its favor, doesn't a pretty heavy burden of proof rest upon the shoulders of those who would publicly maintain that such action should not be taken t Where is that proof! Nothing but the UNSUPPORTED state ment that the project is unnecessary, that these men and others favoring the new reservoir don't know what they are talking about and only those opposing the project, DO. MEDFORD has no greater asset than its water system. The construction of an adequate reserve for that water system, is merelv insurance against the destruction of that system. Not permanent destruction but the possible breaking of the pipe line, that might leave the city in mid-summer, when the consump tion of water in 24 hours is twice the capacity of the present reservoir without water to drink, without water for irrigation, and more important without water to fight a fire! What folly for a city like Medford with such a water system, and with so much to lose in case of such an accident, taking that chance! There isn't a business man in Medford who would take a similar chance with hia own property. The added reservoir is needed, it is in every way desirable, and it can be secured if built now, at half price, without an increase in taxes of any sort. Why pass up that gift of $fio,2(X when it means more jobs, larger pay rolls, and the insuiiince of Medford's million dollar water system for all time! TALENT ELECTION SET FOR OCT. 23 TALKNT.

NEVER MIND VOIR One of my colleague . who sets up as an Interpreter of medicine and teacher of health, perpetrated an egregious Joke on hla customers the other day, Touchlngly con fident In their Ignorance he first pointed out that "the exact cause of the common cold, has never been found" and then told the lunkheads that "we have In .us and about us the organisms of the common cold" I wonaer what the learned doctor would teach about fairies, witches, ghosts, vampires, ectoplasm and hexes? A trreat manv of the aelf-nromot- Ing big boys of the profesh attempt to patronize men and my notions about this "cold" business. Their efforts to place my teachings about It In a bad light sometimes lead them Into strange attitudes. They set out, ostensibly to enlighten the layman but actually to wreck my work. They don't understand what I teach, but they assume I main tain that "colds ' are communicable Infectious diseases and nothing else Bo they must smash the germ theory or seriously cripple tt before they can complete the mystification of the credulous layman. Thus they come at you .poor confused folk with the striking assertion that the germ of the common cold has never been found, and on the other hand they throw a bad scare Into you with the oso-loglcal assurance that these "cold" germs nobody has ever discovered are always "In and about us," waiting like good bogeymen to pounce on us the moment our hypo thetical defenses are lowered. That opens the way for all the silly old quackery about wet feet, weather changes, insufficient clothing, drafts. In truth X do believe the ma jority of the Illnesses Indiscrimi nately spread under the disarming name of "colds" are Infectious. Com mon Respiratory Infections, and hence I suggest the term CRI (kree) to Indicate any such trouble until or unless you can make a specific diagnosis df the ailment. But I be lieve from 10 15 per cent of all Ill nesses or Indispositions purporting to be "colds" are non-communicable, non-infectious, not due to germs d any kind, but allegrlc or chemical or mechanical 'in character; these non-lnfcctloua coryzas may be ex NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O.'O. Mclntyre N1TW YORK, Oct. la. One of those muggy mornings when the city Is hung heavily with that crepuscular mist. And those doleful far-away croaks of the fog h o r n a do not lighten the mise rere. On the street below mo tors seem faint eyed goblins In the chalk mess. You think of London, fog. ad venture. Things like this: A furtive tie-ure, collar up, niixhtng the bell In Harley atreet , . . A stifled scream and sudden splash at a pier end ... A taxi without license plate swerving In to a bank's curb . . . A cough-racked old miser In his base ment hovel and greedy eyes piercing the blackness. On such mornings many city work- era arc dented the vistas of those little Interludes when they swing around In, their desk chairs for a view of neighbors In eurroundtng windows. Through the haee. for Instance, I can not see the stenographer with whom for five years I'm exchanged an occa sional wave.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. A Real Health Food. For over 10 years we have been sending back to Penn Tan, N. V., for buckwheat and using It from No vember to May. Please tell us about the healthfulness or unhealthfulness of buckwheat pancakes made with yeast and carried over from day to day . . . H. S. L. Answer You have me watering at the mouth. Come on November 1 Happy days when I drove my little sorrel mare around Penn Yan and tried to educate the natives. Lived In the very' shadow of the big Bir- kett Mills, and heated my home with steam piped from the mills. Pure buckwheat pancakes made with yeast are wholesome, nutritious and healthful and with butter and gen uine maple syrup on,-boy, they get you down to breakfast on time any morning 1 , Quinsy, How to prevent-quinsy sore throat, and how to get rid of It. Should it be lanced or left to break? Does It have to come every year? J. W. S. Answer It Is better to lance the swelling early and bring relief. Some times one subject to quinsy seems to escape a threatened attack If he reports immediately to the physician upon the first sign of sore throat for treatment. Quinsy Is abscess near or around the tonsil. It Is likely to recur, not necessarily every year. Better have Infected tonsils extir pated between attacks, preferably, 1 think, by diathermy.

I spent a single winter In Houston spats, malacca and all but didn't get away without being dubbed Buckskin. I havo heard It said the French language cannot be mastered after SO, but I know a notable exception. A long-Invalided lady on the wintry side of 60 decided to white the tedium with dally lessons by a French maid. The pupil did not know a single French verb and not more than a dozen words. Yet In 11 months she was rattling It off Ilka a veteran. The same lady waa citing an exam ple of typical French thrift. Her maid waa passing through the kitchen and saw a colored cook slicing three peaches for Madam's breakfast, she picked up the peellnga with a shrug and weighed the allces. Next morning she showed the cook how exactly the same amount by weight could be sliced from two peaches by a more delicate process of paring.

When he went to the Klamath country from the "Umpqua valley, about 1875, It was pretty generally taken for granted that nothing would grow there but grass, and so the cat tle buslneas was about the only farm ing Industry that and horses. As already stated, people didn't" even try to run sheep, because It wee thought that the winters were so long and hard that sheep couldn't be car ried over. e a e rwaa then believed that grain wouldn't grow there, and so no body tried it. But Bob had arl Inquiring mind, and he noted that there were wild plums and choke cherriM la the shel tered apota. He said to himself: "If pluma and choke cherries will grow In this country. GRAIN will grow." So he tried It sv whirl, and It WORKED, the wheat that he planted In the spring turning out a good crop in the fall. . a e BOB EMMITT came with hie par ents to the Umpqua valley when he Vas two years old. It w&s then believed that fruit wouldn't grow In the Umpqua valley, which la now one of the famous fruit districts of the Pacific Coast. It's odd how people get the Idea that nothing much will grow In a new country. But they DO get It. Every new country has had that ex perience. The early settlers In Min nesota thought corn wouldn't grow there. Now Minnesota Is a great corn state. at BOB never saw an apple until he was 12 years old. The year he was 13, his father brought a box of them nice red ones from the Willamette valley. His mother handed him an apple from the box, and Bob turned It over curiously In his fingers. "What is It?" he asked. "It's an apple," his mother an swered. "What do you do with It?" Bob asked. ' "Why," his mother answered, "you EAT it." a a WELL, Bob was stumped again. He didn't know how to go about eating an apple. But he knew about eating water melons, for they'd grown them In the rich, black soil of the Umpqua val ley, and he knew that the core of a watermelon Is the very best part. (Probably, then as now, country boys "busted" their watermelons over a rock and ate the heart tint.) So he went after his apple as he'd have gone after a watermelon, cut ting It In half and scooping out the core with his knife to be eaten first! e Communications Typographical Union and Community Chest To the Editor: Please print following open letter to the General Committee of the Community Chest, Medford, and oblige: Gentlemen Enclosed you will find a check for $35, contribution to the Community Chest, from Medford Ty pographical Union No. 559. which was made at the regular meeting Monday, Octcb-r 7, 1935. During the past three years some uninformed persons have expressed criticism because a majority of regu larly employed membera of our union were not individual contributors to the local chest fund, and asserted we did not shoulder our portion of a community burden. In refutation of any such state ments, and for the enlightenment of the chest committee and the public In general, we wish to state that our union Is the pioneer organization In establishing a sacrificing system of worth-while relief which is main tained week after week throughout the year. Beginning with January 1. 1933. the International Typographical Union made it mandatory upon Its member ship that each regularly employed oR;no Investigate Now Journeyman should work not more than five daya per week, and either give out the sixth day or Its equiva lent In cash toward the relief of its unemployed members. Thla Interna tional union law Is strictly adhered to by the local organization and through Its enforcement has provided a living for seven or eight families which otherwise might be upon the local relief rolls. (This law above re ferred to was enacted upon a referen dum vote, and not by order of any officials). ( - And please bear In mind that we are not giving one day's pay (salary) each year toward relief, like expected from salaried contributors . .to the Community Chest fund, but ae giv ing that amount 52 times a year; and expect to continue to do so until an Improvement In working conditions dispenses with necessity. The relief measures we have Inaugurated mean that some of our highest salaried membera are contributing as much as $416 a year for relief lone, probably a larger sum than many of our wealthy contributors are donating to relief. In addition to giving out a day's work a week we levy a 3 per cent as sessment upon our gross earnings to provide pensions for those who are old and unable to work. We have four local membera who receive pensions, otherwise they, too, might be upon the relief rolls. We are contributing this $25 from our. union treasury because we feel that we, aa an organization, should contribute all we can afford, but as Individuals -we have done our full duty without shouldering additional responsibilities, and tt Is our belief that If all crafts and occupations would organize for mutual assistance and relief that there would be little necessity for community chests and other forms of public relief. Further, when the recent (and very painful) depression reached Medford, and It became necessary for printing establishments to reduce situations, the members of the union divided the work with the others who were not working regularly, and we are rather proud of the fact that ' no member of Medford Typographical Union was forced to the relief rolls, nor did any of them need to seek em ployment elsewhere. We sign ourselves most respectfully yours, ' W. P. RECTOR, President. A. P. 8TENNETT, Secretary. Medford, Oct. 13. PROSPECT HEALTH CLUB PLANS YEAR'S - ACTIVITY PROSPECT. Oct. 12.
