(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.

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

her physician, whom she should en

regular Intervals for advice.
