Ivy Service Club (Minneapolis Jourrsl.) TPHERE was a time when civic luncheon clubi competed largely in the quality of their chicken croquettes, tinging programs, and humdinger proclivities. They were essentially social organizations, with few definite aims other than to get together once a week, and have a good time. One club was very much like another, and the point was soon reached when everyone agreed there were too many of them, resulting in duplication of effort, confusion of purpose, and an all around harmless, but undeniable futility. OUT a great change has taken place in the last decade. There are still a large number of such organizations, but practi cally all of them, have some serious purpose, in the direction of constructive betterment, in the communities in which they live. Taken individually and as a wholej they are a great force for good, in this country, in this community and in the state. and their annual gatherings, therefore, are occasions of keen public interest and genuine importance. . , MEDFOED has the good fortune this year of being the con vention city for the Lions of Oregon. - Their stat gather ing will open here this Sunday and continue through Monday and Tuesday, during which period, needless to say, this com munity will dispense its best brand of welcome, and its warmest hospitality. This city has particular reason to be grateful to the Lions, for thanks to the local organization's vision and leadership, the movement for a public park on the crest of Boxy Anne was inaugurated, and the high light of the convention will be the formal dedication of Prescbtt Park, snd the successful termination of a public spirited effort, which places in Med ford's suburban area, one of the outstanding scenic attractions in the entire state. The Lions were assisted by the Chamber of Commerce, city officials, the U. S. government and the state. Actual develop ment work was made a part of CAVA and SERA activities. But eight years ago it was the local LIONS CLUB that acquired 200 acres of the present park area, deeded it to the city, following the approval of the site, by the City Planning Com mission, and from this nucleus the present extensive Prcscott Park of 1700 acres, resulted, which will be not only a fitting memorial to a courageous and self sacrificing public servant, but a scenic and recreational asset to this section of the state, for all time to come. SO all praise to the local Lions for a good job, well douel They originated the idea, and in the face of many obstacles and discouragements, carried it through to complete success. Medford would give a warm and hearty welcome to a state convention of such an organization as Lions International at any time, of course.. But under the conditions which prevail, this welcome is tremendously strengthened and stimulated, by a deep and genuine sense of gratitude, for the great public service to this community, this organization has . performed.

MUSCLES, ARTER IFS AND NERVES 1 Elimination of the clinical rec orda of 300 or more men aged, on the average, 62 years, In each of the following occupat Ions or callings, viz., farmers, laborers, clergymen, law yers, bankers. physicians (In all more than 1800 men) a ho wed that 33 of the doctors, 16 of the bankers, 14 of the lawyers, 14 of the clergymen. 8 of the laborers and 8 of the farmers had coronary sclerosis, or hardening of the arteries Involving the coronary vessels which supply the heart muscle itself. This degen eration Is likely to manifest Itself In angina pectorles or In coronary thrombosis.

(OP) Pota toes grown from his own strain of certified seed brought Dean Miller, high school farmer, a profit of 11.334 during the recently con cluded sales season. Miller,, a rut ura Mrmer of America, plsnlwl Don 't Forget to Vote THE streets of Medford, belong to the people. If a majority of the people don't want their streets repaired at the present time, and so express themselves at the polls, that's OK, aa far as this paper is concerned. We would regard such action as extremely unfortunate, from the standpoint of the public welfare, and saving our investment of a million dollars in paving. . But "vox populi, vox dei." We live in a democracy, and the majority rule. What the majority wish, the majority should have. But if a majority of the people of Medford DO want their streets repaired, but through indifference, carelessness or some other cause, fail to so express themselves at the polls tomorrow, then that will NOT be OK as far as this paper is concernod, and would be an outcome which all right thinking people should deplore. For that would be a defeat of the popular will, a failure of democratic government, for which only the people themselves would be to blame. SO on the eve of the election, as this paper's final word, we urge all good citizens tomorrow, TO GO TO THE POLLS, AND VOTE. How they vote is important, but not so important as that they do vote, that they do their duty as citizens, and exercise their franchise. Let's make this election, an expression of what a majority of the people of this community desire, not what some minority wishes, and secures only because the majority fails to go to the polls. The physician who reported this study suggested that what la a crisis for the banker or business man Is mora or less routine for the phy sician. By thst he Implied that the responsibilities and anxieties of the physician attending obstetric cases, broken legs, heart disease cases. In fantile paralysis, scarlet fever, diph theria, appendicitis pneumonia, do mestic trsgedles and other critical conditions are as Intense aa that of the bsnker when there Is a run on his bsnk or the business man when a strike Impends. Besides, the in vestigator maintains, the physician "hss used up a great deal of nervous energy by the time he has finished school " for his schooling Is long snd Intensive compared with that of the average banker or business man I hope this will put some of you bankers and business men In vour j place. You generally contrive to be In conference when a mere doctor comes hat In hand to apply for a little extension of credit, yet as the statistics Bhow, after all you're Just a lot of lowbrows. The unsophisticated layman take that Idea of used up nervous energy seriously. Probably a good many dumb doctors, especially sur geons and brsss specialists, think It Is a pretty sound notion too. I won der whst they'd think If one were to sound off In similar fashion about exhaustion of stomach energy, liver energy, lung energy or skin energy? Imposing conversation aside and speaking In terms of physiology, a person csn use up skin energy or liver energy as readily as he can use up nervous energy. There Is no ground for the notion that energy, strength, vigor or power Is produced by or used by the nerves or tne brain. Physiology recognizes no such thing as nervous energy. There Is no such state as nervous exhaustion, apart from ordinary exhaustion. The only energy, power, strength or vigor concerned In human metabolism, so far as physiologists have determined, Is thai liberated by the oxidation or combustion of food-fuel to produce heat or musculsr work. The trouble with the doctor who has Jvst finished his medical train ing and with many doctors who have attained success In prsctlce Is, not that l hey have used up too muoh energy but thst they hsve failed to use up the energy llbersted by emo tlons In short they have neglected to get a sufficient dslly ration of musculsr work, plsy or exercise to blow off steam, and the cardiovas cular system not the nervous sys tem, bresk down under the abuse. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Preparing for Maternity Would It be Injurious for a pros pectlv mother to get a permanent wave' Is it advisable for her to wear a maternity corset? (Mrs. P. S.) Answer As a rule, no. Both ques tions should be answered for her by her physician, whom she should en gage as soon as she believes she Is to become a mother and visit at regular Intervals for advice. Peppers Why don't you give the lowly pep per a break as a rich source of vita min C? (J. c.) An-;wer Green peppers, dadbust em, are perhaps the richest known source of vitamin O, ounce for ounce. But I don't like peppers. I don't .ike masha potatoes or grapefruit either, and I; is no use trying to make me say nice things about 'em. iooth Decay In Children Please tell me what causes mv elm. dren's teeth to decay so fast. They get plenty of good food and we try w mnise mem Drush their teeth reg ularly, yet . . . (Mrs. o. W. s.) Answer They do not get sufficient direct sunshine or naked skin. They do not get sufficient calcium and phosphorus (of which milk anrt may , cheese are the best sources). They need a dally ration of vitamin D to supplement their diet. Pleasantest ouu must economical vitamin D wouia oe a half dozen Irradiated yeast tablets dally, chewed along with any food or drink. British Medlcai Research Council found that control of tooth decay In chllren requires several times as much vitamin D as the amount considered necessary to prevent rickets. at the moment enough Idea to carry him for 100 years.

Prom a box office standpoint at least, the beau tiful Clare Boothe, carried off the season's playwrlghtlng honors In her play ao hilari ously packed with feminine meows and call ed "The Women." All the well sharpened c r 1 1 lcal Javelins ao fiercely hurled fell blunted. There are many versed up ertly In d r a maturgy who see In her opus a bitter realism that the critics entirely muff ed. She was shooting higher than wai noticed In the first, hurried criti cisms. So she could Just now, if ao minded, titter Just a bit cynically behind the fabled fan. But those who know Mlas Boothe say she bean no grievance. The pub llo liked her play and paid hand- lomely to see It. In many waya she has become one of the most fortun ate ladles In the New York scene. And all In a year. Before that she was known chiefly as a contributor to Vanity Pair.
