Still Their Day
llEMORIAL Day will abide,
manent place on the American calendar of holidays. Al
ways, no doubt, it will be set aside in reverent memory of those
who laid down their lives on the field of battle.
But Memorial Day has changed, is changing and soon must
change more. Originally, it was the day on which surviving
veterans of the Union forces in the Civil war paid honor , to the
memory f their dead comrades. On early Memorial Days, the
soldiers of the Union, still young and vigorous, marched to
gether again, renewing for the day the martial comradeship of
'61- '65. The years passed and the marchers grew old. But still
it was a day which belonged to the veterans of the war.
Then came the Spanish war and a smaller band of young
er veterans joined the Q. A. B. in homage to dead comrades. A
score of years more and the World war added a huge army of
youthful veterans to the sadly
vivors and the still active and
Toda ythe World war veterans march with not quite the
spring and zest of a dozen and a half years ago; and the Span
ish war veterans are as grey as the Civil war veterans were in
1898. And what of the Civil war soldiers, themselves 1
A few are left. Those few are mostly of the wiry, enduring,
indomnitable type. One's step
90't, and one's voice may not be so full and deep as it used to
be. But once a year, a soldier can fall into line and answer to
his name, even if it be in a phantom regiment with no voice save
his own to call out "Here!"
So, scattered all too sparsely over our country, are these
brave last men of phantom regiments. Soon must come the Me
morial Day on which no voice of the sixties will answer,
"Herel"
And what then! Memorial Day will continue, as it ought to
continue, a day dedicated to those who gave all that a man can
give to his country. It will be a day sacred to our dead of all
wars, a day of reverent memory for North and South, for East
and West. R. S.
The Girl With Brains
THE educated girl of former years was pictured as a bespec
tacled miss, whose thoughts had been so concentrated on
the acquisition of learning, that, she neglected her personal ap
pearance. The boys were supposed to be more likely to marry
some red checked peach.
Many boys are plain and practical, interested in sports and
money making, but they don't know much about books. If the
fair graduate should begin talking about evolution or Tenny
son, they wouldn't know what to say. Hence, it has often been
suid that the educated girl must
she knows something, if she wishes masculine attention.
But tho pictures of the scenes about the schools and colleges,
the photographs of the girl graduates, do not suggest that edu
cation and beauty are ncceNsnrily opposed to each other. In
fact, the looks of these diploma winners would be hard to beat.
It would appear their minds have not been exclusively fixed
upon the lines of the poets, nor on the theorems of geometry.
Apparently they have paid their share of visits to the beauty
shop.
Some boys had better give their sluggish minds a bit of a
prod, and find out about the things going on in the world. Then
they will not be absolutely .speechless when they find a girl
who knows something. Such a girl will make a better showing
when you step out with her into a quizzical world. R. S.

The time to do something for the

thing. Begin today to cultivate the
habit of doing something every day,
some kind of physical work, play or
exercise apart from the routine of
your bulsness or profession. Take a
walk, practice tap dancing, roll
somersaults, climb some stairs, chin
yourself, paint the gate, polish the

bowl, run a mile, do your stint of
calisthenics or setting up exercises If
there Is nothing better to do. What
ever It may be, a dally session of
shadow boxing, bag punching, walk

make It an invariable habit, and far
better omit brushing your teeth,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Blood Donors
Does repeated withdrawal of blood
from the professional flood donor for
transfusion leave the donor susctp
tlble to low grade Infections and pos
sibly tuberculosis In later life? (R.
Q. L.)
Answer. No. Only healthy per
sons are accepted as donors, and they
recuperate full blood strength within
a few days after giving blood. If a
a donor does show any evidence of
health impairment, he is removed
from the list there are always plenty
of healthy applicants waiting to get
on the list In any large hosplal cen
ter where transfusions are done. Most
donors retain excellent health even
if they give blood dozens of times
eoch year. After all, It Is no more
a drain on health or strength than
Is wet-nursing.
Garlic
Beet advised to eat garlic once a
day. It seems Impossible to clear up
my breath after eating It. (Mrs. L.
A. J.)
Answer. Best way possible Is to
skip a week or a year between doses.
Garlic Is harmless to the eater but
it has no known remedial value.

Comment
on the
Day s News
By. FRANK JENKINS
ftHUCK 8EAVEY, manager of a
southern Oregon telephone com
pany, entertained a group of men
the other day with an Interesting
story of the freaks and the odditis
of the telephone Industry.
"YTOU'VB wondered, perhaps, why
you can't pick up trans-Atlantic
telephone conversations on your
short-wave radio.
It works like this:
In the transmitter, at this end Is
a "Jumbler" that mixes the speaker's
words up Into an unintelligible hash
In the receiver at the other end is
an "unjumbler" that puts them- back
together again and makes them In
telligible. Smart!
IP YOU wish (and think you can
afford it) you pick up your tele
phone right here In Medford ana
talk to Sydney, Australia.
Your voice will go first to San
Francisco. Thence It will go to New
York; Prom New York It will go to
London, and from Lpndon it will
be transmitted to Sydney by "direc
tional" radio which means radio
that la pointed In a certain direction
as you aim a rifle at the target. '
Depending on the time of day, It
will either go up over the north polo
or down through the tropics. (Tho
Idea Is to follow the dark side of
the earth, as radio works better in
darkness than In daylight.)
A NOTHER freak connected with
talking to Sydney (or ANY-
WHERE In that general locality) :
You will be talking TODAY, but
your listener will hear you TOMOR
ROW. (This because of the inter
national data line, where a day Is
lost In going around the world.)
You wlU be talking In the SPRING
but your listener will hear you In the
PALL. (This because of the fact
that the seasons change at the
equator; when it is' spring north of
the equator It Is autumn south of
the equator.)
A NOTHER good one:
Chain broadcasts are carried
on telephone wires and are re-broadcast
by each station on the circuit
When we listen here on the Pacific
coast to a chain broadcast originat
ing In New York, we hear the pro
gram a fraction of a second AHEAD
of listeners In New York.
(This because of the fact that
sound travels faster over wires than
through the air by means of radio
waves.)
ONE more oddity:
The telephone company la ex
perimenting now with "delayed trans
mission." That la to say, you talk
into your telephone NOW. and some
body can take his receiver off the
hook HOURS LATER and listen to
what was said.
If you want to tell some pet pest
of yours Just what you think of him.
here's your chance. All you have to
do is wait until this device comet
on the market, then call his number,
get It off your chest and LEAVE
TOWN.
