EJitorial Correspondence
SAN DIEGO, Calif., March 24. It wasn't half bad at the
exposition this afternoon. It was, on the contrary, all bad.
It wag also all wet.
Once more we took the weather man at his word. He said
it might he threatening but it wouldn 't rain. The weather man
down here is just as dependable as he is in Medford. It not
only rained, it came down, in buckets, and we were without a
coat,' umbrella or rowboat. So we had to run all the way from
the monkeji tage at the Zoo to the House of Hospitality, and
as we rounded: the' corner and splashed by the entrance to the
nudist colony couldn't help but wonder how it-was going with
Queen Eve arid all the little Eves within..
: We will say this for the Nudist colony. They have the most
persistent and optimistic barker inside, the turnstiles. He isn't
a nudist himself. .He is buttoned. up to the chin in a sky blue
uniform with brass buttons. But we have yet to see Jiim
"soldier". on the job. .There he
with. a handkerchief held to one
Jupiter Pliivius, the sprinting editor and all the world to come
right, in and- see the ;only honest' to. goodness (goodness had
nothing . to do with it, said' Mae West) nudist colony in the
world . the " great religious ceremony in the temple of purity
about to begin,.'' etc., etc. Having resisted the temptation of
nudity in fair weather, it was not difficult to do so in foul, so
we spattered right on to the protection of the House of Hospi
tality,' and 'continued to the patio, to lean against a plaster
column, get our breath and wring ourself out.
And there of all places we
since our arrival the little ray
than John. Cupp, who left the
somewhere around Christmas and has been meandering around
the state of California ever since.
Yes Sir, there was John and
considerably more territory than your correspondent he had
therefore stopped more rain, and
to shed water, he was wringing himself out too. Moreover
John didn't'run past' the Nudist colony, he went in and . . .
yes we mentioned Mrs. Cupp a
went in too! 'There is no roof covering the colony of course,
and just as the high priest in long hair, whiskers and fallen
arches, started out to finish the ceremony, and (we can't use
another "start") the rain commenced and well Mrs. Cupp
had a new hat, and to get a man's new hat wet is bad enough,
but to get a woman's new hat wet well you know what that
means. And so Mrs. Cupp started right out from whence she
bad come. .
John would have too; but he
head he had taken it off, just so
place this was a sacred ceremony,
and besides, it was a beautiful sylvan retreat and naturally
John wanted to see it, you can see better without a hat and
there were tall trees, and arching royal palms, snd rocks and
flowing water (the Rogue Valley Golf club and the Elks picnic
grounds never had a more genuine Nature lover than John
Cupp) and as before stated the venerable high priest had
nome out, to the center of the open glade, followed by four of
his feminine disciples, with Queen Tanya Cubitt of Zora Gar.
dens and South Chicago, advancing toward the throne from the
wings and well that's all, we merely started out to explain
why John was all wet and Mrs. Cupp wasn't I
One. should treat such things naturally of course, so we
asked John and Mrs. Cupp how they lilted it. John giggled,
put his head on one side, rubbed his bald spot with one hand,
started to say something, but before he could do so Mrs. Cupp
broke in .with "It's perfectly foolish the silliest sort of thing."
"That's about my idea" said John judiciously. "Oh it's all
right enough you know but struck me as sort of er-FUNNY!"
So Mr. and Mrs. Cupp agreed on the Nudist colony prob
lem, silly, foolish and funny they all mean the same thing,
or approximately so. Which is just as it should be. It is
always so awkward, when husbands and wives don't AGREE
on such things.
It was nice to see John again our old golfing pal, standing
there in the rain, our first sight of something from Medford in
over a month. . And we had a nice chat, and learned that John
thought he had sold his furniture store and then found he
hadn't; so he just started on. his trip to Iotva anyway, via the
great state of California. Ha expects to get to Iowa eventually
but at the present; rate will arrive there about next Thanks
giving. In comparing notes we found we held many opinions
in common' that one can't 'find anyone who is for Roosevelt
or for the San Diego fair,, arid while John isn't for Roosevelt
we were both rather strong for the San Diego fair. So perhaps
before he goes we will go out there together, and take our golf
clubs along just in case, ...
.A warm driving rain is about as fatal to the San Diego
Exposition as it would -be to a snow man on the front lawn,
for it drives one indoors and the show is exclusively an outdoor
affair. If one can't roam about in the warm sunshine and
enjoy the gorgeous flowers, beautiful shrubs and lawns, look
up into the magnificent trees, and take in the ponds and
lagoons, with rare water lilies of variegated colors, and the
interesting anuatio vegetation, the day is prettv much of a
wash-out. However there are always compensations and one of
them this afternoon was a visit to the transportation building.
This is the Ford building, which was the star attraction last
year, but Ford, sensible as usual, didn't concur iu the exposition
decision to put on a repeat, performance, and called it a day
when the lfl;)5 season ended.
However the management has
left behind him, and the Transportation building today we
should say is the best show on the grounds. Here one can sec

present twin-six, a similar development of the steam en sine.
some very interesting murals, showing transportation, not only
of the present and past but delving pictorially into the future
and a number of other interesting things.
' .
We were particularly interested in the S. V. exhibit, for last
year some of our readers may recall, Klamath Falls aloue was
mentioned on the loud speaker as the gateway to Oater Lake,
while Medford and the Shasta jioute over the Siskivous were
left out entirely. The M. T. made quite a fuss about this, but
it was too late to change the record, so the S. p. put in an an
nouncer to correct the oversight.
We happened to enter the
to the northwest was reached, and to say ye editor was all eyes
and ears would express it mildly. We were primed for a special
article to blast the venerable S. P. into the middle of next
week, hut the sound record HAD been changed! Klamath
Falls came first but Medford direotly following, and while the
scenio advantages of the Shasta division were not emphasized,
as they should be well one can't he too persnickety. All in all
it is really a most creditable exlulut.
. .
Iucidentaly the loin) speaker attached to a phonograph plays
a very important part in this exposition. When bands or orches
tras aren't playing music and good music, is circulating all
over the grounds. Practically all important exhibits are ex
plained by the same device. It is very ingenious the way the
words of explanation arc perfectly synchronized with the lights
which go off and come on illuminating the proper section of
the pictorial layout at just the right time. It's all mechanical
and automatic. No attendants arc around. R. W. R.

surface temperature, rate of meta
bolism, amount of heat and amount
of muscular energy produced oy

scientific knowledge has compelled
us to lay aside traditional medical
bellefa concerning th. effects of al
cohol on th. body and accept the
newer revelations. Bucb a revision
of principles and practice Is diffi
cult for the old timer.
For Instance, a distinguished au

gave the physiological action of al
cohol correctly and scientifically, In
hl textbook, explaining that Its
dominant Influence Is depressant,
that If the dose Is large enough to
cause any appreciable change in the
circulation. It Is In the nsture of
depression rather than stlmulstlon.

I brooded over th. matter for a long
time and finally took It up with
the professor. With admirable pa
tience he pointed out that it la con
ceivable that alcohol acts as & stlmu-

little, for example the ability of the
body to resist Infection. So
I filed the professor's letter In
the chapter on aloohol In his text
book, and a transcript of the whole
affair In the Haw-Haw section of my
scrspbook. The Haw-Haw Is no per

Comment
on the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS . .
nCFORS passing from the subject
- of earl? business Institutions in
the Southern Oregon country, a
typified by the old Brick Store, which
ha been dealt with at considerable
length In this column during the
past several days, this writer would
like to add another Incident.
It concerns the Beekman bank at
Jacksonville, which was closed several
years ago by the simple process of
paying back to the depositors the
sum they had deposited. The histor
ical accuracy of this incident is not
vouched for here, the story being
merely passed on aa it came to this
correspondent. j
SHORTLY after adoption of Ore
gon' first state bank law, a state
bank examiner arrived In Jackson
ville to examine the Beekrnan bank.
(Probably about the same time a
the first examination of the banking;
business conducted by - the Brick
Store, related in these chronicles the
other day). '
He went through the books and
found everything In order, and fin
ally arrived at the task of counting
the cash. He asked Mr. Beekman (so
the story goes) where the cash wa
kept, and It Is probable . that hi
question was misunderstood, for the
answer was; "Over there In those
drawers by the cashier," Mr. Beekman
evidently thinking he - meant the
petty oah kept out tor the day's
transactions.
Anyway, the examiner started In
to count the cash.
IT WASN'T a very big Job, of course,
and he soon came back to Mr.
Beekman, greatly excited.
"Your books," he rasped out, "show
large deposit much greater than
your loan. But here are only a few
thousand dollars In cash.
"What kind of a bank Is this?"
""VH," Mr. Beekman t reported to
V- have answered mildly: "you !
want to see the bank's MONEY. Come
along with me."
So he ted the examiner out through
the back door to the vault, which
he opened, end they both entered.
Piled up there In the vault were
thousands upon thousand of dol
lars (the teller of thi story had no
Idea how much) in gold coin and
in raw gold, quite a little of it In
the original pouches In which It had
been placed by the miners who took
It from ths gulches.
Every depositor could have been
paid In cash, all st once, and there
would have been plenty left,
MR. Beekman looked at the exam
iner probably with a twinkle in
his eye. Then he asked:
"I that money enough to satisfy
you?"
The examiner, looking sheepish,
admitted that It was. and they went
out and closed the vault and he went
in and finished up his examination ;
and departed. J
