SOBOBA HOT SPRINGS, Calif.t March 11. This U a con
tinuation from yesterday of the Mail Tribune's new serial which
micht be captioned Ye editor shoots a 72."
But what a difference just a few hours make. It's all in
the mood. In fact life is merely a succession of moods. And
they have a way of changing. Yesterday we were all steamed
up over a 72 and yielded to a mood of what we fear, in the
cold Cray dawn of the morning attcr, was one or rather inton
tile exuberance. We had broken an 80 for the first time in 30
years of persistent endeavor, and just gave way to our feelings,
wtih the firm determination of embalming that history shatter
ing accomplishment forever in the files of Jackson county's
official newspaper, from the first hole to the last But today-
well it's another day and a different one. No one is interested
in golf at least no one around here and probably no one in
southern Oregon. As to Chief Althouse he didn't even ' come
into the dining room until practically every one had left. And
there were sweet little bouquets of nasturtiums in earthen
jars on each and every table 1
Thus are one's fondest illusions shattered on .the granite
cliffs of bitter experience 1 It was ever thus. The only certain
thine about life is its uncertainty. Speaking from personal
experience there is only one constant thing in this mundane
existence, that is the expected utiVba nappens. inis tor
tunately applies as well to the things we dread, as to the things
we anticipate. It is no doubt the law of compensation. As
individuals we dote on extremes. But Nature doesn't. Nature
is forever seeking a balance.' If the things we fear in the
imagination were also suffered ; if the things we enjoy in antici.
pation were also realized, well there would be no equilibrium
life would be lop-sided, which the powers that be, decreed it
shouldn t be. Or so it appears to us this bright but unpoetic
March day morning. At any rate no publio notice was taken
of Ye Editor's achievement at dinner last night. So that's that.
And the world will probablv never know just what happened
on those other 15 holes. Which is perhaps just as well. For
we had 3's on the first three holes and ended up with an
average of 4 s. But (there he goes again) we did get a 721, .
We took a motor bus'down here from Los Angeles Monday
afternoon. Which is some distinction. In fact we are the first
motor bus customer Soboba has had this year. There are only
two busses from L. A. to Heraet per day, and they only stop
at Soboba on call. Which accounts no doubt for the fact our
bus was full, and the only empty seat we could secure was next
to a Piute Indian. He had everything on but his war paint
! His long black hair coarse like a horse's tail flowed over the

by a stunning bend beret, with horses and butterflys woven in
red and blue. His limbs were encased in plain L. A. pants, but
draped over a pair of beaded moccasins, and he had enough
silver and turquoise jewelry scattered over his person, to sink
a battleship. In fact at first we thought perhaps he was a
jewelry salesman, for he kept taking off his rings and putting
them back again, adjusting his bracelets and arm rings, so we
prepared ourselves for some sales resistance. But he said
nothing about selling them at reservation prices, in fact for a
long time he said nothing about anything.
Which of course is characteristic of Indians. They are pic
turesque to look at, but our experience has been they are ter
ribly dumb. If they have any ideas they are very averse to
expressing them. Our own considered opinion is by and large
they HAVEN'T any. They are decorative, fine to put in pic
tures or in front of cigar stores, but a total loss hs travelling
companions, or, we imagine, companions of any sort.
At least this one was. Not that he answered our attempts
at starting conversation with the conventional grunts ani
"ughs." He wasn't that kind of an Indian. He said "Yep"
and "Nope" and "Uh huh" like any up-to-date American. He
simply wasn't interested. And then just as we were approach
ing Riverside and had long sinco given him up as hopeless he
asked if we had seen the last burlesque show at the Burbnnk
theatre in h. A. (he cnlled it h. A.), and upon our reply in the
negative proceeded to give us a word picture of what we had
missed, in the accepted idiom of a sex-thwarted sailor boy,
nfler a three day bust, in the last port of call. Now we have
no prejudice against the old fashioned burlesque, and do
understand they flourish on Main street, Ijos Angeles, in all
tho pristine splendor of the early days in Butte, Montana, but
we do object to having thorn retniled to us second hand. In
fact there is nothing we can think of that bears repetition
less than a hnnkey tonk burlesque. It is something one should
experience first hand, or not meddle with at all. Fortunately
the Piute Boccaccio dehhrked at Riverside, and we were glad
to take ti sent in the smoking compartment in the rear where
the windows were open.
There is a decidedly Indisn atmosphere here at Soboba but
it is chiefly architectural and we Bhould say very good too.
The great golf star is ensconced in solitary grandeur in an
adobe edifice, of bnro poles, cement and dried marsh grass
called "Sonoma." Next door is the Piute, the Siwash and the
"Shasta" which sounds like home. There are a flock of them
nil perched on the side of the mountain like swallows' nests.
The flower girl we took for an Indian we have since discovered
is a Mexican. In fact there are no Indians here now. The
Mexican golf pro says there are a few Palm Springs and a few
"Dirt" Indians around this part of the country but no Piutes
as far as ho has ever heard. So that makes our motor bus
companion a linr as well. There is no doubt to which of the
two tribes above ITE belonrs. R. W. R.

EXERCISE AND CORPULENCY.
I aald the other day that aa the
slacker flesh of the corpulent lndl
vldual begin to melt away, under
a rational lea-
eenlng regimen,
there la a natu
ral 1 n c 1 In at ton
for the patient
to Indulge in
more physical ac
tivity than he or
she haa been ao
customed to,
while eubmerged
in fat. This In
creased activity,
of course devel
ops m u a u c lar
tissue. M u a o 1 e
weighs more than fat; but takes up
leas room. The new muscle must be
taken Into consideration aa a factor
affecting body weight. In the mili
tary training campe during the
World War It was observed tnat
thousands of young men from white
collar Jobs, clerks, stenographers,
office boys, executives, salesman,
showed a marked decrease In bulk,
all body measurements, along with
an actual Increase in body weight.
In the first few months of their
training. More muscle. These youths
became more slender, more graceful.
So let no woman worry about exer
cise, active play or work with the
muscles making her too large or
ungainly. That doesn't happen. On
the contrary. ,
Some Dumb Dora who had gained
distinction for her swimming and
then sought to capitalize her fame,
told whoever listens to such words
of wisdom that ahe feared swim
ming spoiled a woman's figure, made
It too atrong or bulky or gave her
broad shoulders or something. Really
there ought to be a law prohibiting
unqualified persons from offering
the public advice about health.
Short of such testa of endurance
aa marathon races, there Is no ordi
nary exercise, game, play or athletic
activity - which an oversize adult
may not advantageously enjoy, pro
vided his or her own physician doea
not Interdict It for a particular rea
son. Just one form of exercise tends
to develop massive muscles, and
that Is fool stunts such aa weight
lifting or similar strains recommend
ed to gullible young men by mall-
order physical culture humbugs.
These strong-man stunts are objec
tionable, not meerly because they
produce hypertrophy of certain num.
cles. but because they make one
muscle-bound, clumsy. Inefficient.
The overgrown muscles become para
sites on bodily vitality. The profes
sional freak strong man never won
race In his life. He la really a
feeble man. He reminds me of little
old Tony the Wlrlsh Terror gosh.
how fierce and dangerous a wlrehalr
can look, hut In a set-to with an
other dog. big or little, he doesn't
live up to hi) ad.
The young woman who avoids rid
lng, swimming, tennis, basketball,
athletics, dancing, skating, hiking
and other physical activities In the
fear that these exercises tend to
coawn the figure, is badly edu
cated. Flabby, alouchy, dumpy
that'a the way a woman Is bound
to look If she long avoids such 'dally
exercise. Indeed It Is only by keep
ing up a reasonable participation In
these physical activities . that she
may hope to retain, or by resuming
them to regain, anything like the
grace and buoyancy of youth. Or
the man either, for that matter.
If a design for dwindling Is sound
physiological, beneficial to health
and not harmful as are most popu
lar reduction methods. It should
make one feel more Inclined to take
and enjoy a reasonable amount of
exercise every day.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Smaller and Better.
Tou aald a fair test of a reduc
tion regimen la whether one follow
ing It feels better . or worse, what
do you mean feel better? I have lost
seven pounds In two months on the
diet, but I feel half dead
and . . . Mrs. A. T. R.
Answer And that prove the diet
la not properly adspted to your
needs. A sound reduction diet makes
you feel better, whether you reduce
much In weight or not.-If It doesn't,
you had better beware. Design for
Dwindling, a booklet giving details
or a sound reduction regimen, mailed
on request If you provide stamped
addressed envelope and Inclose ten
cents In coin. No reason why reduc
tion snouid impair vitality.
Anxiety.

He had a high pulse and high tem
perature when he was examined.
and waa postponed. On his return
home temperature and pulse were
an right . . . Mrs. v. B.
Answer Perhaps the boy anxiety
caused the heart to speed up. I do
not think anxiety would account
for an actual rise of temperature.
Epithelioma.
Disturbed over growth on side of
nose. First thought It wa pimple.
out now it is angry red, spongy,
rough. I am 38 years old and have
two children to raise . . . Mrs.
O. O. ' ,
Answer Don't worry. Let vour doc
tor remove the growth or obliterate-
It with electrode.sslcatlon or destroy
It with X-ray. Foolish to allow It
to remain untreated while you worry
about the possibility of cancer.
