An Oreeon City attorney recently delivered a lecture on the subject: "Jury Verdicts and Their Relation to the Increase In Crime." Speaking of relations, In a couple of Tort land trials. It looked like the de-, fendant was the father of the ver-1 diet. Two more pedestrians report they have been the victims of jocular autolata, who pretended they were going to run over them, but didn't,! while they were crowing the street. J It exorcised them considerably. They vowed the next time they were going: to pretend to Jump. This would hej folly. They were advised to Jump, and pretend they didn't.

The causes of war range from whc'ls going to print the delinquent tax list, to the way the mayor parte his hair.

Osc Mall rribuua ft Wit ids. The Price of Peace IT it gratifying to note the Honorable Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of the exchequer in England, agrees with the Medford (Ore.) Mail Tribune. Yasser I In commenting in parliament, last night, on the abandon mcnt'of the Ethiopian deal, and the international situation re sulting from it, the "strong man" of the British cabinet de clared "Without Invoking military a notion, th. Laagu. of Nation out not be effectlv. In retraining Italy." Absolutely true. And the sooner this fact is realized the better. Not that financial and economic sanctions may not be exceedingly embarrassing to the victim, and act as t material deterrent j . but they can't be made EFFECTIVE unless they are supported by military sanctions. . In other words at the present stage of world development, the only way' we can secure world peace, is to be willing to fight for it. , DOES this reduce the organized effort to secure world peace to an absurdity . . an' admission the only way to avoid war, is to invoke, it T - . . ., Not as we look at H. ' " ' ' " ' I It is no more absurd, than an admission equally true, that the only way we can establish and maintain peace, between indi viduals, is to be willing to exercise force' against those who insist upon breaking it. That is done every day in our domestic affairs. Policemen don't .parade our city streets unarmed delivering orations on the virtue of law observance; and urging the populace to behave. ' Whenever trouble starts, whenever any individual decides to be a law unto himself, and violate the covenant of a law-abiding-citizen; the-police proceed to meet the threat of force WITH force, and a greater force. That it all that prevents modern civilization from degenerating into anarchy. What is true of individuals' is equally true of nations; which are merely large aggregations of the'sarae individuals. Moral suasion is n6t enough; Tt never has been enough be tween individuals; we see no reason to expect it ever will be between nations.'''' ' '" TAKE .the present' European situation, for example. Disrc- - garding the League of Nations of which it, is a member, disregarding the Kellogg pat which it signed, violating its treaty of amity and. peaee with Ethiopia, Italy is engaged in a war of conquest, ui eastern Africa. . Obviously there is only one. thing, that can stop this war; meeting the force which Italy is exerting with a greater force. War? Yes.' But a war .to end war. Notice to'tbe'world, 'thjit any nation' that dares to opeuly violate the, covenant of the League, will have the other members of the League to 'deal with, not in the -direction of righteous preachments and diplomatic notes of censure, but in the direc tion of force, armies, navies, air fleets and machine guns. That is the only thing that will stop Italy in Africa. That is the only thing that will. stop Japan in China. . IF the civilized world is not willing to fight for peace, it simply is not willing to pay the price that pence demands. There is nothing new or revolutionary in this idea. Inter nally it is accepted as an axiom by every stable government in the world today. How long would any government enjoy inter nal peace and tranquility, if it refused to employ force, to maintain themt ' Not very long. As far as this country is concerned, the criminal underworld under such conditions, would have control of the government in a week. Well what is true NATIONALLY, is also. true internation ally.

I 8AJXIE TUB COSMETIC IMH STRV. Don V Forget Christmas Seals THE Jackson County Tuberculosis association. has mailed out to midenta of Medford and -Jackson oouuty, the" new Christmas seals and asking that checks in payment be returned. This association and this movement are worthy of every citi zen's support. It is probably true that a dollar speut for these seals goes farther and does a bigger work than any other dollar spent during the year. Tuberculosis in Oregon last year claimed hundreds of lives. Without the work of this association it. would, as it did, a decade ago have claimed hundreds MORE. In Jackson county the seal financed clinics have been held from time to time, free examinations have been made by. experts,, preventive measures explained, and at local expense children with tuberculosis have been cared for. ' ' Medford snd Jackson county are benefitted by this work in proportion to what they give. It therefore behooves all of ns who have not sent in our checks to do so,-and be just as gen erous about it, as our resources allow. Every contributor may rest assured his donation helps save lives Certainly no investment can pay greater dividends than that! Of the Inquiries coming to thie column the proportion referring to cosmetic la noticeably smaller than at any time for twenty yeara back. I don t know how to In terpret thla, but I believe tt Indi cates that cos metics are bet ter today than they ever have been before, and t b a t one may new dye or bleach his hair or tint his complexion or use depllla- tory or rouge or other beautlfler with a reasonable degree of safety. Many reports of poisonous or un pleasant resulta from the use of cosmetic nostrums have appeared In medical literature tn the past ten or fifteen yeara, and It may be that such occasional happenings have led some of ua to regard all such preparations as Injurious. That la not a fair conclusion and It Is not; smart. ' I used the masculine gender above. Of course, girls and women are the great users of cosmetics or beauty aids, but these days an Increasing number of persons of another sex are Indulging In pcrmanents, facials 'n everything, where formerly they hesitated to get a mnnlcure In view of men. Man or woman who can perhnp-' hold a Job longer or get a better chance In the world or m&'lte a more pleasing appearance by the use of any such cosmetic artifice, makeup or disguise would be a ninny If he or she failed to take advantage of the opportunity. Unfortunately there arc still cer tain cosmetic preparations which contain dangerous or poisonous chemicals and thette objectionable Items Inevitably tend to give all cosmetics a bad reputation, espec ially aa the makers of honest, high class cosmptlcs seem to have no ethical atawlard hy which to re strain unscrupulous ones. There la a need for some sort of advisory. If not a censcrlng board or commission to set up' a code of ethics and rules for the guidance or the cosmetic Industry, a reasonable and sane code which will not only remove the stWma which has grown up In the mind or the medical pro fession, , but which purchasers ot such commodities- are entitled. Apparently there la nn Inclina tion on thepnrt of certain self appointed censors to exnggernt the danger Involved In the use of cer tain cosmetic preparation These unofficial but aggrrawtve ctttlcn rometlmes give the general public a wrong impression; they gave me a wrong Impression of various popular coRmettcs, which I have latterly learned arc nctnnlly unobjection able when properly used. Doubtless I passed my bad Impression along to many other persons. This la one of the reasons why I think a "czar" or a board of counsellors should be selected by the cosmetic industry Itself, and the rulings of this au-, thorlty obeyed In a way which j would win popular confidence and i respect. I If I believed my greying hstr ! might prevent me from holding or getting a Job, I'd have my hair dyed even If the dye contained lend j which I know Is a poison, but which I doubt would poison me when used In that way. I cut out eating so much frutt7 a. o. Answer No. It 4s healthful enough. Deodorant. Please suggest some good disin fectant which we can use In a pub lic school study room, where- there Is always more or less foul odor. O. A. S. Answer Soap and water, fresh air, sunlight are the best disinfectant and deodorants for such purpose. How about using unbleached mus lin window screens for good venti lation and good light? Colitis - Gastritis Is gastritis and colitis one and the same thing? No one seems to know a cure. I have spent much time and money on doctors and sanitariums but colitis-gastritis . la no better. C. 8. Answer Gastritis means Inflam mation of stomach. Colitis means Inflammation of colon, large Intes tine. Prolonged ill-advised dieting la frequently a prime factor of such trouble. Particularly vitamin defic iencies.

He has not read a single re view, and most are laudatory, for hta recent "Valiant Is the Word for Car rie." He admits he's Itching to wade through them but Is motivated by a selfish Interest. He does not want to confuse his own standards and be tempted to please many masters In stead of pleasing himself. Even when they filmed "Chicken Wagon Family" he did not go to see It. low's pom.
