Editorial Correspondence
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22 About 30 people from Medford,
Ashland and adjoining points, boarded Rosey's football special
for Palo Alto. Instead of a football special hotyever the train
turned out to be a wedding special. The newly weds, Mr. and
Mrs. Jno. W. Johnson, were responsible for this transformation.
So instead of Binging football songs the crowd sang various and
sundry wedding marches, and instead of throwing the rah rah
and pep stuff they threw rice and old shoes. Jack Porter and
Frank Perl were very prominent in the gay festivities. It was
all in good fun and good nature and we might usurp the office
of society editress for a moment and declare Mr. and Mrs. Jno.
W, Johnson are not only a very attractive couple but very good
sports. The football fans gave them a hearty and affectionate
sendoff when they left the main party at the ferry building.
e e
Here's a strange thing. We have observed the new bridge
from S. F.'to Oakland, while it has grown from a few wooden
piles just out of the water to what it is now, concrete and steel
cables in place and all the imposing edifice but the roadways
for cars and trains completed. At no time have we seen more
than a dozen men at work, and today as the ferry boat passed
under the cat walk four or five hundred feet in the air, only
three or four. It is as if the bridge had not been built by man
but had been planted and then like Topsy had just growed. In
all stages impressive, it is now from the deck of an S. P. ferry
boat, positively inspiring. But who in Sam Hill BUILT it!
Two views of the bridge today, for no sooner landed here
and a hasty luncheon than we ferried back to Alameda to see
the China Clipper get ready for its maiden flight to the Far
Hast. Many others had the same idea, in fact, about six or seven
thousand, it looked like a motor show, at the airport. Outside
of the Big Game never so many cars together have we seen.
Yes, P. M. Jim Farley was there, no balder than usual but
his face plumper and considerably redder. No doubt certain
things have happened during the past few months to make Jim's
face a trifle ruddier than usual. However we don't intend to
talk politics, at least not now !
Perhaps history has recorded it somewhere but if so we have
missed the place, namely how many people saw j Columbus off
when he started for the U. S. A.! what sort of a ceremony
was there? A great deal has been written about Christopher's
anding at Palm Beach or was it Santo Domingo? but very
little about his departure from Spain.
No such discrepancy when the history of trans-Pacific aerial
transportation is written. There were enough sound recording
machines, movie cameras, newspaper photographers and report
ers when the China Clipper finally rose from the bay and started
tnrougn rne mist toward the setting sun this afternoon, to record
story in word and picture that would reach from Brown s
corner at Main and Front, to the moon.

Finally the four propellers which hnd been whirrinu sr.

group of twenty or thirty notables on a clean, trim government

LET ME BEE Y OUR TONGl'E
In many caws of nutritional or hy
pochromic anemia the patient com
plain of burning sore tongue. The
tongue looks In
tensely red, as
though Inflamed,
and the normal
coat Is atuent.
The papillae can
not be seen. If
the nature of the
Illness is not rec
ognized and the
nutritional defic
iency cor re cted,
the tongue later
becomes shiny,
devoid of coat
and papillae.
atrophied so that It Is actually smal
ler In size. This la known as bald
tongue. At first, perhaps, the bald
ness Lb In spots, but eventually the
tongue la entirely bald.
Women with this type of anemia
(most cases occur In women In their
forties) are likely to ascribe the burn
ing sore tongue to irritation by "acid"
fruits and the like.
Animal feeding experiments and
actual clinical experience support the
view that "bald" tongue Is a manifes
tation of nutritional deficiency, whe
ther there Is marked anemia associat
ed with It or not. In the booklet
"Blood and Health" (for copy send 10
cents, coin and stamped envelope
bearing your address). I tell all about
the Iron requirement and how to
make your own Iron "tonic", but I
omit to mention the Importance of an
adequate vitamin ration In all cases
of nutritional or hypochromic anemia
because this knowledge la newer than
the booklet.
Some Investigators seem to feel
convinced that bald tongue Is due to
deficiency of vitamin O slone, while
others are Inclined to think vitamin
B Is also concerned, and still others
reserve opinion until further study
shows whether still other vitamins,
especially A and C. may be concerned.
Whether the shortage Is one vita
min or all. certain It Is that a fair
dally ration of all the vitamins added
aa a supplement to the diet corrects
the abnormal condition of the tongue
In six or eight weeks. At the same
time the i vitamin ration appears to
benefit materially the patient's gen
eral nutrition and metabolism.
Introspective individuals some
times notice the prominence of the
v-shaped row of large papillae back
on the tongue and Imagine that Is
abnormal. On the contrary, the
tongue of a healthy person should
always show those papillae, as well as
smalt papillae covering the whole
upper surface. The tongue should
feci rough, not smooth. It should
have a moderate whitish or yellowish
coat, particularly over the rear half
ot lta upper surface. It should look
as red as the Hps. not redder. It
should not show Indentations or pres
sure marks of the teeth. It should
present a somewhat Irregular sulcus,
fissure or crack down the middle.
The best sources of the various vi
tamins are given, along with other
Information on the funotlona of the
vitamins In nutrition and prevention
of disease, in the booklet "Building
Vitality". ,For copy send ten cents
coin and a 3-cent stamped envelope
bearing your address.
Old time doctors learned much
about the patient's condition, by In
specting the tongue, even If their lore
was Isrgely empiric.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Vitamins and Vision
Recently you stated that a certain
fish liver oil could be used as a rem
edy for dry eyes. My eyes burn and
are dry, especially at night when I read
or work by artificial light and begin
to get sleep . . . (O. R. B.)
Answer I doubt whether It would
have any effect on your trouble
which is more likely normal fatigue
and sleepiness. The "dry eyes" to
which I referred is a disease medically
known as xerophthalmia, and fish
liver oil prevents or cures that, due
to vitamin A. Cod liver oil, halibut
liver oil, or any other fish liver oil. or
salmon oil, also prevents or cures
ulght blindness or abnormal difficulty
about seeing things In dim light. The
vitamin A, of course, Is taken Inter
nally. Various foods contain consid
erable vitamin A notably butter,
cheese of the yellow varieties, carrots,
spinach, most fresh greens, liver, raw
or canned peas, raw or canned toma
to or tomato Juice, kidney, dried
whole milk, egg yolk, prunes.
Disinfecting sickroom
Please tell me how to make a room
safe for other members of the family
after a tuberculosis patient has occu
pied It for a year . . . (Mrs. W. R. J.)
Answer Ordinary soap and water
washing of floor, repaperlng or re
painting walla or celling If these are
visibly soiled. Ordinary laundering
or drying of bedding. Then an airing
and If possible a sunning for a day,
and the room Is perfectly safe for any
one. Soap la the best disinfectant I
know.
They Call It Crl
Since we received your valuable
booklet and adopted the sensible sug
gestions you give In regard to socalled
"colds" we have had remarkably few
Illnesses of that nature In this insti
tution. Even the Uttle tots now un
derstand what crl is . . . fMlas D. 8.)
Answer Thank you. Glad to know
the young uns are getting a break.
NEW YORK. Nov. 23. Iwaa listen
ing to Mary Margaret McBrlde. once a
newspaper woman herself, over the
radio the other. On the air she goes
by the pseudo
nym of Martha
Deane, a kltch
eny, pink fluted
pantry - shelf
name that some
how suggest a
delft sugar bowl
and Initialed
napkin ring.
Appropriate too,
for Miss McBrlde
talks a good deal
about food. And
with a backcoun-
try gusto that
betrays her origin. She spoke of the
grape arbor in her native Paris, Mo.,
brick-walked and loaded down with
th- "purple slippy ones." One haa pity
for a grape-arborlesa childhood.
And she spoke of pennochl, a home
made candy I believe indigenous to
Missouri. Also of Jonathan apples,
peach sweet pickles, syrupy pear pre
serves, salt rising braed, crisp fried
mush with blackstrap molasses, per
simmons and culinary yum-yuma en
tirely lost to the metropolitan area.
Nothing stirs forgotten pools of
memory like recalling those dishes
that pleased our juvenile palates.
Transplanted, we try to pattern our
tastes to petite mar ml to Instead of
pot likker. But our thoughts wander
like those straying fingers on the old
parlor clavichord.

THIRD TRIAL OF
LAMSON QUASHED
SAN JOSE, Calif.. Nov. 33 (AP)
David A. Lamson's third trial on
wife-murder charges was declared a
mistrial today by Superior Judge
J. J. Trabucco, on motion of de
fense attorneys.
The motion was granted when
County Clerk Frank Hogan reported
two of the 628 names on the Jury
list could not be accounted for after
check of all criminal and civil
trial Juries.
Hogan said he assumed the miss
ing Jurors were among those ex
cused from Jury duty by superior
Judges during the year, and were not
notd on court records.
Judge Trabucco ordered selection
of a Jury be recommended January
37. The state did not object to in
continuance.
No people Interest me more than
show folk. Happy hours have been
whlled in the refreshing Irresponsibil
ity of their childish optimism, absurd
Jealousies and exaggerated loyalties.
Zlegfeld waa supposed to nurture un
dying hatred for performers who
signed his contracts. To the layman
hla references were venomous. In
reality a defense mechanism to head
off increased salary demands. He
would telegraph rebukes when he
knew an actor waa achieving great
popularity. He went to Palm Beach
seasonally but was bored. His world,
hla life were the stage. He wanted
back among the windy. Jostling
mimes that cluttered his outer office
and match boast for boast.
Few have had more absorbing the
atrical atmosphere lately than the
very rich John Hay Whltneys, known
In their social stratum as Lin and
Jock. Whitney Is last of the sainted
brotherhood of Broadway backers
known as "angels." He shucked 123,
000 from his hefty roll to aid Billy
Rose In that fabulous and fantastic
enterprise, "Jumbo." He waa set beck
a neat sum for Peter Arno'a revue
that opened and closed the same
evening. But he has had a success or
two In his dabbling, and anyway for
tho "filthily rich" It all comes under
the head of amusement.
He Is a, hotel clerk with one of those
frangible smiles, like a wave revealing
a sudden flash of white coral. The
sort who with a glance puts one Im
mediately on thither side of the gulf.
I approached to learn the room num
ber of a patron. He gave the infor
mation quickly, efficiently, but walk
ing to the elevator I experienced a
tinge of resentment. Man la never a
reasonable animal. But rarely so un
reasonable aa In contact with hotel
clerks. I used to be one myself and
should be considerate. But I Invari
ably walk up to them with a chip.
We somehow expect bubbling founts

fHE dispatch, however, comes from

can't put too much faith In cen1
sored news.
IF CERTAIN pollticisng have their

ing If It were phrased In words
simple enough to be understood:
"The Indirect or fundamental cause
for the forthcoming transition ot
North China Into an au tonomous
state la Japan's absolute necessity

What It means la that Japan
wants North China as a market for
Japanese goods, and since she can't
get It any other way proposes to
USE THE BAYONET.
THAT'S the way nations, which
still follow the methods of the
