The alleged horrlbla treatment ac corded Hood River apples by the California border Inspection patrol has caused any number of upstate patriots to take pen in hand, and address tha editor. The writers are irked and Ired, and sincere In their wrath. Wa have circulated quite freelv in these parts, and have en- Mimtared. anions: the natives, no cussing of the border inspection worth mentioning. But, w wie norm ward the Indignation mounts, and in the metropolis It appears to be rated as an extra fancy indignity, with the minor features of the Span ish Inquisition. Ideas are alwaya gel-tine- disarranged worse than the Hood River apples, and the contents of the suitcase. In the past on the very day upstate opponents of the Sales Tax condemned Its havoc in uaiuom.n, Oallfornlana wandered across the line and lauded lta whacking of the school mlllsge as per cent, or thereabouts. 0o what?

(Oregonian) The council repealed Its dog ordinance, deciding that dogs howl so loud when tied up at home they might Just as well be free. Locsl butchers told the council a proposed meat inspec tion ordinance la necessary, but provisions should be approved by both bay cities before it la en forced. Tha student body of Oregon State College will soon haw en election. Thla Is fine training. They even have msd candidates and rumors, like tha man-aieed mandates. "You get too much money for too little work. You can't create in the midst of such plenty. Money comes so easily the urge is gone." (Robert Sherwood, noted playwright. telling why he quit Hollywood.)

The child or adolsoent with lymphoid hyper trophy (adenolda and enlarged ton al La) becomes ac customed gradu ally to mouth Breathing and so la least conscious of discomfort from nasal obstruction. Discussing pre vention of adenoids and enlarged tonsils here five years ago we said: At all times, therefore, naked ness and nudism must be regarded healthful for Infants and children. The fashion of bare knees or bare legs or bare feet Is commendable. Scantiness of attire which shocks us older fogies Is likewise commendable from the viewpoint of health. Even in mid-winter it Is healthful to go without clothing or without thla or that superfluous garment If one finds It comfortable to do so." (This pre supposes one Is not an Idiot. An idiot would not know In any given circumstance whether he or she Is comfortable. A child of normal men tality does.) "The mid -win tor sun shine or skyshlne Is comparatively poor In ultraviolet, but still It la beneficial If It can get to the skin."

April 38. No class Of New Yorkers seem so shucked of emotions as the professional gamblers when they gsth- "1 er around 4 a. m. for their coffee In the Broadway all-night cafes. As solemn aa papoost's they sip their coffee in tight lipped alt ence. Never i Joke nor a laugh. All have ac quired that pal lor that so often goes with stendy nerves like Arnold Rothstein snd Nick the Orock. And, in contrast to the general notion, the majority are sedate drcsset generally dark blue suits, drab ties and little Jewelry. They ara the most regular of man icure parlor patrons and the biggest tippers. The reason la that their hands are most in evidence. And It la almost Invariable that they have the long and sensitive fingers of the true artist. They like perfumes and barber scents. Living linrd and dangerously, their faces are honed to a sphinx-like immobility. Now and then their ladles, brightly rouged and extrava gantly over-dressed, drop In at the morning Interlude. If It has been i lucky night they share In the come easy, go-ensy bounty. The most famoia haunt of Broad way In the early morning Is Undy's. tt is where Damon Runyon sat a hundred and .one nights gathering material for his Mludy stories In the msgar.lnes. Undy's has a shifting clientele as colorful aa the kaledlo- cope. At noon there come the rsdio performers snd script writers. At 4 o'clock the odd assortment that breakfasts then and for dinner variety of song writers, actors, gag men. cabaret folk and screen celeb rttlea. Then the early a. m. crowd the amartly dressed Tenderloin ter mites who live by their wits. Broadway slso has three dinner hours. The 6 30 crowd that must dine early to be ready for th theetre curtain. Then the 7. SO o'clock movie and theatre goers and at 8:30 those who want to dine leisurely, ait over their coffee and cigars and wait for the nMht clubs to open. A 6 o'ehvk rain is the most disastrous thing that an happen to the rratstirnnt world Drenching away a fortune that can never be regained. That Is why head wsttera so often come to the door Jiut before the dinner hours to scan the skies. Idiosyncrasy: One of the rlgset Industrialists confessed at a private d.nner he loes interest in executives who have a conference with him, de part and fturideuly return to mention something they have forgotten.

CONGESTION that doesn't appeal to you. then a few drops of somebody a brand of vlosterol dally. Fortunately there Is still a way to smuggle the synthetic sunshine Into recalcitrant or finical ones. It la the way a good many persons subject to chronic sinusitis are keeping their heads clear and building Immunity. Drop three drops, more or leas, of vitamin D Inhalant In each nostril with the head held far back for a few moments, each night and morning, or If you prefer. apply the vitamin D Inhalant with atomiser as a spray. QUESTION. AND ANSWERS Cream of Tartar. Plesae tell me by return mall if cream of tartar la harmless wnen taken as medicine, how much one can take In 34 hours, and for what It la good. (E, M. S.) Answer Potassium bltartrate, cream of tartar, Is alkaline, diuretic (Increases kidney secretion), mildly laxative, harmless when taken as medicine. Usual dose, half teaspoon ful once or twice dally, taken dis solved In plenty of water, flavored with lemon or other fruit Juice and sweetened If you like. Old -timers were fond of taking a dally dose or two of cream of tartar In tha spring to "purify tha blood." Silly business, but amusing to credulous souls. It is the acid of grapes, tartaric acid, combined with potassium. Like the citric acid of oranges, grapefruit and lemon, tartaric acid or acid potas sium tartrate or cream of tartar is oxidized Into alkaline carbonates and so acts as an alkali or antlacld In the blood. Spectacle Rows Hurt Ears. Wearing glasses many years, my ears sometimes get very sore and Irri tated by the temples. Optometrist who fitted glasses cannot see any reason why the bows should hurt my ears. Is there something to rub on to toughen the skin behind the ears? (M. A.) Answer Carefully fitted bows will not cause such trouble. Use the shortest bows, not the long ones extending down back of the ears. Keep two pairs of spectacles and wear them alternately. Twice dally apply a wee bit of tannlpaste to the tender akin. Tannlpaste Is a salva for flrat aid treatment of burns and sunburns. (Copyright, 1037, John F. DUle Co.) Ed.

D. 263 El Camlno, Beverly Hills, Calif. decorates the windows of fruit and delicatessen shops as well as the win dows of the fashionable dog salons. Two department stores now have de partments devoted exclusively to canine outftttlngs and toys for the pooch. And on upper park avenue there Is a dog tonsor who not only clips and plucka klyoodlea but gives them perfumed baths at $3 per plunge. Two toned silk, pajamas are now the billiards In the swank haberdash eries. Flaming red pantaloons with snow white Jacket or green Jackets with purple pantaloon. The Idea waa popularized In Hollywood where pa Jama wearing has become as style conscious as evening dress. I note pajamas as high as $176 a pair. Among the extravagant pajamists a haberdasher tells ma are Noel Cow ard, Adolphe Menjou, Franchot Tone. Billy Leeds, William Ooadbye Loew, Lucius Beebe and, of course, the moat valued customer of all, Marlene Diet rich. Any new star arising in the Hollywood heaven becomes an im mediate target for the exclusive pa Jama maker, for aa a rule they go in for the garment In a big and ex pensive way. Since the passing of Tammany Young and the apparent retirement of One Kyed Connelly, the big sport ing events, as well as the theatres, have no outstanding professional gate crashers these days. Another halt for the Idea la the novelty wore off and no lodger do newspapers give them publicity. Anyone who does not mind the humiliation of being found out can eventually crash the gate. It is done nightly at movies, theatres and prize fight by hundreds all over the land.

Comment on the Day s News By FRANK JENKINS SAN FRANCISCO. Just over the big bridge for the first time and, believe It or not, got darn near lost hunting the Oakland approach to It. This country writer, hezlly suppos. Ing thst the mainland end of aa awe some a structure aa the bridge over San Francisco bay would ba heralded by signs you could ase half across the state, drove serenely up San Pablo avenue and would probably have wound up In Alameda If he hadn't looked back and seen the great bridge spreading across the skyline BEHIND. You never can tell In these days. T US of the back country, the passing of the old ferries, with their more or less thrllllnjg approach to the city and their alwaya fascln st ing discharge at the Ferry building, leaves something of a gap. But It Isn't an aching gap, like the place where a treasured tooth was be fore the dentist did his deed, for It la filled completely and aatlafylngly and thrilllngly by the great bridge that not only gets you from one side of the bay to the other with no loss of time, but provides TWO thrills for esch one of tha ferries offered. One really never knows what a body of water San Francisco bey la until he looks down on It from the height of the bridge. AND (after the bridge la found) It's really amazing how easy It la to get onto It on one end and off of It on the other. The trsffle experts did a great Job. DOWN below and to the right Is the man-made Island where they will hold the world's fair to celebrate the completion of thla bridge, and Its sister on down toward the Golden Gate, for which Northern California has been waiting so long. As yet, the Island doesn't look big enough to provide a site for a good sired county fair, but by the time they get through with It the story will be different. The bridge Is cluttered with signs, "No Pedestrians Allowed," for ex ample. This Is getting to ba a complicated world. If you want to commit suicide In a big enough way that the papers will make a spread of It, you have to hire a taxi to get you out where you can Jump off. "QTOPPINO on the Bridge Forbid w den," another signs reads, If you get a puncture. It's Just too bad. (It IS too bad. No doubt of that. A poor devil half-way across has not merely one flat tire but TWO. And he has to drive right on, stifling ss best he can the pain in his vitals that cornea with the knowledge ha has two new tires and tubes to buy.) Another sign informs: "No U Turns Permitted." This Is one business deal you have to go through with once you've started It. The gate keeper glvea out no rain checka. IF ONE doubts that these great a bridges are making history In nor them California already snd are going to make a lot more of It before they're through, he has only to come down and drive over the bay for the flrat time, Instead of being ferried over, as always in the pst. These brldgea are ,due to change the whole face of affairs here In the bny region. Commutations Seta Debate Date. To the Editor: To Mr. Geo. Iveraon: Thanks for accepting my challenge, and I have spoken for the K.

Well. I believe thst Is plsln enough tor most anyone to understand, and I will defend my contentions on May 16 at 3 o'clock in your hall. FREDERICK W. BERGER. Ashland, Ore., April 37, 1037. Own, Fine Tree. To the Editor: I read In the Mall Tribune, under tha heading of communications, a letter from Mr. Carle. In which he told of the beauties of the Madrona or Mountain Laurel tree. I agree with him In all he aald about the tree, for It la truly a beautiful tree with its green foliage the whole year round, 1U fragrant bloaaoma that me In the spring and resemble the llly-of-the'Valley In looks, and pro duce a fragrant perfume that la waft ed on the breeze, and aleo the beau tiful red berries that adorn, the tree during the Christmas season. I think the Madrona Is on a par with the Chlnaberry of the south and the Monkey Pod and Royal Poln ctana of Hawaii. Mr. Carle wanted to know where other fine specimens of the Madrona were located. I think I have 16 of the finest specimens In Oregon, lo cated on my ranch on Coleman creek road fives miles from Medford. These trees range from 40 to 60 feet In height. I would like to have Mr. Carle and all other lovers of beautiful trees drive out and see them. To get to my ranch, drive on the Pacific highway south to Voor- hles crossing (where the Sun-Sugar ed Pear algn la located), turn off at Voorhlea crossing, cross the railroad and turn east on Coleman creek road and follow this road two and one half miles to Aloha ranch, whero the trees are located.
