It's good to know that while words between us are but a blurred snd t.mrleri underbrush, vou stand behind them so ial, so true (Love Agony Col.) But some of these things hare happened to others', and Interest presently died down. Why doea it stick Ilk a leech to Lindbergh, despite the desire of the bettor class of newspapers to co-operate with htm and give him as much of a rut as possible? Primarily. It seems to us, because ha insists on being so "different." Ho make himself conspicuous by his ' very effort to avoid It. Anybody else would have gone to Europe on a regular passenger liner. Lindbergh went on freighter. Anybody else would have let It be known ahead of time. Llndy nude a mystery of It. Tha public goea for mys teries. It was worthy of the best efforts of a btg-tlme press agent, bent on getting his ollent heavy front-page display. What a pity It la that one to eager to escape the public gar as Colonel Lindbergh persists In following a course thst keep it focused on him all the time. It would be funny but for lu ' traglo aspect. There is, of course, some truth to this. People in the mass are contrary. One might say they are child like. If anyone tells them they CAN'T have a thing;, that is the one thing they want. This trait indeed wan an important factor in the failure of national Prohibition. When the individual was told he couldn't imbibe a liquid containing over one-half of one percent of alcohol, the immediate reaction was a stimulated desire to do that very thing. ' TTIE converse is also true. When a person, in the limelight shows he not only loves it, but wants more of it, there is an immediate impulse on the part of rank and file, to see he doesn t get it. This is not contrariness alone, however. It pro feeds from a perfectly natural suspicion of, and prejudice agiiinst, the publicity hound, the show-off, the grandstandcr. The typo is almost invariably vain, shallow, seeking not what may benefit his community or the country, but only what may' Denetit himself. The people goon tire of them, and consign them to the oblivion they deserve. Personal Health Service By William Brady, MO.

GIVE VOIR RESPIRATORY MUCOSA A BEST CO there is no doubt that if Colonel Lindbergh, on his return T from Paris had violated good taste" as did Admiral Dewey when he returned from Manila; had shown himself to be another oscillatory Hobson; or even followed the romantic and gymnas tic course of an aviatory Douglas Fairbanks, he would quickly have found that privacy and obscurity, which these three dis tinguished gentlemen, were so soon aocorded. But he didn't. Not only after his return from Paris, but ever since, the Lone Eagle has conducted himself as the clean cut, High minded, and modest young man, that he is. In spite of all the adulntion, all the hero worship, all the acclaim and praise, mnay never maae a raise step or for a moment lost his head. What was the result f As before stated there was that child. like reaction, the popular desire to get something, because it was denied them , but more important, there was a tremendous increase in the colonel's personal popularity, because the young man, acted as men, young or old, suddenly elevated to the posi tion of a national hero, SO SELDOM ACT, and precisely as the American people would wish their heroes TO act. In other words he became overnight the perfect "White Knight",' with out fear and without reproach, and his later tranie exnerience. only deepened the feeling of adulation, of affection arid respect, with which his countrymen regarded him. IJP to this point all was'well. The American people had their w hero and a real one, Colonel Lindbergh had come through the trying ordeal without a single mis-step, proving himself to be worthy of every honor, official and unofficial accorded him.' Had the American people at a whole, including the yellow press, and the celebrity hunting boobs, been content to leave it there, there would have been no tragedy as far as publicity is concerned. But they weren't. As the Democrat-Herald points out the better papers were, a majority of the people were, hut the enn. uun seeKers, me Keyhole peepers, journalistic and otherwise were NOT. A ND that and not Colonel Lindbergh's perfectly natural and Proper desire, to be hinjself and lead a normal useful life, caused all the trouble. What happened t At one ime Llndy couldn't send his shirt to the .laundry, without having all the buttons taken off bv some souvenir hunting lunatics. He couldn't land on a flying field, without meeting a raging and adoring mob, which crashed the ropes and threntened their lives and his. In his most inti mate and private relations, he was constantly subjected to in trusions ana impertinences, from reporters, photographers and prying busybodies Even after the ghastly kidnaping tragedy, his second baby son, was not even allowed to attend school, without having a bunch of Hearst news hawks inmn out nf iimhush, drive the ear to the curb, and terrify the young man, and of course the family, by snapping a battery of cameras at him, so they could beat the world with the first picture.

Popular notions about uampness, although shared by a good many fogies who practice medicine. unscientific and Uloglcai. no matter now vehemently these funny notlona may be reiterated bv the nung aociors who purport to be the very voice of science. In an article on "Physiological Best of the Nose," published In the n. j. state Medical Society Journal oy ur. isany WKoy Wood of Newark, the author quotes theae. and othei scientific obaervatlons In support of alr-condltloning as an aid In the treatment of upper resnlratorv in. fecttons. , When patients suffering from in. tractable respiratory trouble derive benefit from a sojourn In a halmv climate the benefit is due In part to physiological rest of the mucous membrane lining the nose, throat. slnuseB, bronchial tubes; In normal health the dilated epithelium of the surface of this membrane Is renewed every ten or fifteen minutes. The cilia or halr-like projections main tain a constant sweeping motion which tends to expel dust, bacteria or other harmful elements which moy be Inhaled. When the ciliated epithel ium la overtaxed It does not regen erate fast enough and the lining membrane changes to a leas protec tive form, more scaly in character, and this scaly or squamous epithel ium Is more vulnerable to bacterial Invasion. Today It la not necessary to en another clunat In order to gain the benefit of physiological rest. Modern systems ox air-oondltlonlne am avail. able and aside from the comfort and neaith alr-condltloning affords, the Installation- or use of aueh a system eaves fuel. Keeping one or more pan of water ooiung near the patlent'a room, and hanging moist cloths over radiators are two simple methods of putting more moisture in the air, Dr. Wood suggests. He offers a simple teat of humidity: When the outdoor winter temperature 1 40 degreea F. or be low, the humidity Inside la too low unless there Is some condensation of ateam or moisture on the window panes. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Rejuvenation Regimen Here I am not yet forty and already they are beginning to regard me aa an old man. I feel so, too. Not that I have ever had any serious illness, but Just weary and without any pep Answer Say no more, chump. Get onto the Langstroth diet right away. Send a stamped envelope bearing your address and youll receive In structions. YouH probably not stick fsitnruuy to the diet, any more than the average perron does, but you'll soon feel the benefit from whatever effort you do make. Beef Broth or Soup Please explain how beef broth com pares with beef Iteelf In nutritive value, and why broth la used for In valids. . . . (Mrs. M. H.) Answer Clear beef broth or bouil lon or oonsomme has very little nu tritive or food value; only the fat or other materials in soup are nourlah- lng. The clear broth la mildly stimu lating, appetizing, and being liquid easily fed to a feeble person. Only way to get the nourishment or strength from moat Is to eat the meat. Decayed Teeth What Is the effect of decayed teeth on the blood stream? Is the poison ous matter swallowed and absorbed Into the blood from the stomach? Does the stomach always become af. fee ted before the poison gets Into the system? (Mrs. MoC.l Answer Various trains of germs are absorbed from the area of infec tion around the cavity or the root of the teeth thru lymphatic channels and Into the blood. They may lodge elsewhere, say In a Joint, or In the gall-aao or In the wall of the stom ach, and set up secondary trouble. It seam strange that any one should tolerate decay In the teeth In theae days ot skilled dentistry. Foolish economy to neglect a cavity. (Copyright 1930, John F. Dllle Co ) Ed.

Tne other which I especially enjoy ed was the glow of the high dome of hi Hotel vista Del Arrovo. The Indirect lighting put the whole great aome m a sort glow or red. This eeen from the bridge that spans a deep canyon which the hotel overlooks, as a castle on the Rhine, Is a really beautiful sight. Thla bridge In Itself always beautiful, was especially so wnen decorated as It was for the Christmas season. . The city ball was also a sight to remember, especially Christmas eve when many hundreds congregated on the plaza In front to witness the lighting of two 50 or 80 -foot trees. the glow of colors of the hlh dome or tne building and to take part in community singing of Christmas carois, followed by a fine presents tlon of the "Nativity" on the norch A Chrlstmae oartv for the children had been given In the afternoon at the Civic auditorium. Christmas over, the decorations dis appeared over night and banners were soon floating In readiness for the big veni, oi tne year to paaadenana. the -Tournament of Rosea". The parade oi some 70 floral floats, many bands and decorated cars. Then the big game on new years day. Texas had turn ed out In train loads and 10 gallon hats to boost for the team from their state, but the California team was a little too much for them. But good time was had by all. It Is useless to attempt describing those floats, even If jl had all the space in the world, I have not words quite equal to It, or of the mass jf people who Jammed the miles of streets to view the parade. An est! one-quarter million more people than had been expected. The floats were parked In Tournament park ror 24 hours following the pa rade, giving a chance to see them to better advantage. . Those of you who listened to your radio report got more of all this than I can teU you. All were so very beau tiful one culd hardly choose. But the memorial to wm Rogers his smiling likeness done in natural flowers of right colors, gave suqh a completely realistic presentation of his that peo ple stopped their talk to gaze In amazement. Then softly came from many: will Rogers." and many tear had to be wiped away. Then again,- as a natural size horse with DNdle reins hanging, an empty eed die, stood at rest, awaiting the rider wno would sot come again. The "Will Rogers" took first prize in tne nitn division: Portland, Ore., claimed third place in first division: south Pasadena got sweepstakes. A grand piece of work Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. But I liked better "Betsy Ross and Her Flas," "The Con stitution," "The Clipper Ship" and Alexander the Great's Conquest of India." "The Little Red School House" by the P.-T. A. of Pasadena was well worth mention. In closing, I might mention a sym phony concert I heard at the munici pal auditorium the evening of the 4th. The fourth concert of the sea son, free to. the public. A symphony in D-minor, by Cesar Franck: Con certo in E-mlnor. Mendelssohn, and and overture from Wagner: 30 violins and other lnatrument accordingly rneke up this orchestra. DORA A. PRICE. Pasadena, Cal.. January, t. The answer la perfectly plain, and ha been proved times without num ber by hard experience: "Those who work for wages." AS the value of money goes down .. (a It ALWAYS does when the printing presses are started) PRICES OO DP. Prices can and do go up over night, but wages can go up only as those who work for wages are able to get a raise out of the boss. Getting a raise out of the boss. 1 a compara tively slow process, whereas the rise of price 1 a SWIFT process. Thus. In periods of printing press money Inflation, those who work for wages (or receive FIXED Income of any sort) are always several Jumps behind In the race. They are never able to get wage lncreasea enough, out the boas to keep up with steadily ris ing prices. T lant the amount or money one gets that counts It Is what one's money WILL BUY that spells the dif ference between comfort and want. When the value of money decreases every day (as Is always the case when the printing presses are started) those who work for weges are the WORST ROBBED. WE are apt, especially In these modern days, to think of mon ey as wealth. It ISNT. If you want to test that statement. permit yourself to be locked up for week In the vault of a great bank There will be money all around you money In vast sums. But It won't keep you from getting hungry. Flight 'o Time Medford and Jackson Count) history from the flies ut the Mall Tribune 10 and to years eco. TEN YEARS . AGO TODAY January 14, 1926. H.

It Isn't probable that tills country will start the printing presses at any time soon, for the lessons of Germany and Russia are still too recent. But every year In which our government spends more then can be raised by taxes INCREASES THE TEMPTATION to start the printing presses In order to get money enough to KEEP ON SPENDING.

It leads to the possibility of printing press money. GOVERNMENTS like to spend, be cause spending is always popu lar. They dislike to tax, because tax ation Is UNPOPULAR.
