Fill That Chest 'THE Community Chest is an established institution in this community, its purposes so well known to all, that any comment upon them would be superfluous. So as the annual drive for contributions to the chest opens. there is really nothing much to say, and nothing NEW that can be said. Everyone knows that the Community Chest campaign is. bv its nature, a test of good citizenship. Its results reveal, how many residents of the city, who have more than they absolutely need, are willing to give something to those who have less. Every contribution will be used to help, not those who live abroad, but those who live here in Medford, our neighbors and our friends, and in the final analysis, OURSELVES. HPO generously support the Community Chest therefore- is clearly a matter of enlightened self interest. For to elim inate want, to reduce suffering, to advance health, makes Med ford a better place in which to live, a permanent investment. which pays dividends to every member of the community. throughout the year. . Those who are able to giye something, but refuse to do so. place themselves in the position of those who are willing to pront from the efforts of others, but will do nothing to deserve the benefit themselves. We are sure there are few of this type in this community. We are equally sure that the present drive, under its capable leadership, will this year, as it has in the past, meet with the complete success which it deserves.

Cross a pure black gulnea-ptg with a pure white gulnea-plg and you get only black gulnea-plga In the first generation. But Support the P.-T.A. PROBABLY never before in the history of the country, has This is particularly true of public school education, for as the youth goes, so goes the nation. Therefore any force that will lead youth in the right direc tion on one hand j and raise the general level of the ability to think and think clearly on the other, 'contributes to the preservation and perpetuation of a democracy such as ours'and its institutions. This is particularly true at the present time- when there are sinister influences abroad in the land, which must be resisted and defeated if popular government is to endure. Our best defense one might say our only sure defense, lies in an educated and enlightened citizenship. And the cornerstone of such citizenship is the public school. . . . pHIS may be rather a portentious prelude, to a brief and very simple statement we have to make. A state-wide drive for membership in the Parent-Teacher association is on in this state, and we wish to urge all parents with children in the publio schools, to join. Nevertheless the essential faet. as stated we believe to be true. There is nothing more vital than education, the right kind or education. And no factor is more important in making that education especially primary education, what it should be then fl loPIVA ..rail Hnn-.:..-J J ..ll J , , .

For it is this organization that brings the school in direct contact with the home, and the home in direct contact with the school, a relationship that is of inestimable benefit to both, to education, and ultimately to the country as a whole. CO we are glad to join with others in endorsing the P.-T. A. campaign in this state. The nearer we can come to the ideal of a truly EDUCATED citizenship, the nearer we will be to that permanence, security and stability, which will make not the world necessarily but THIS COUNTRY safe for DEMOCRACY. m gulnea-plga mate three -four tl a of their offspring will be black and one-fourth will be white. Just la white aa the grandparent waa. If your ambition la to develop a "blue" or a gray breed or strain, you will surely not give up so soon. Fortunately, too, gulnea-plga are en thusiastic performers when they get the general Idea of what you hope to prove. So take a walk or bowl a game or two. When you return you'll find simple arithmetic no; longer adequate It takes Integral calculus to keep tabs on progress of I the experiment from now on. It i goes like this: White and black pigs croAAed. First generation, Ml black (black It dominant; white Is recessive). Second generation three-fourths of the offspring black; one-fourth white. Third generation some of the blacks breed true. Some contain a mixture of white and black charac ters, traits or factors, and hence some of their offspring will be black, come white. While the guinea-pigs would prob ably carry on as long aa you wish, you may as well conclude the ex periment aa hopeless. A "blue" or gray mottled or barred strain of gulnea-plg might conceivably be de veloped in the course of a few hun dred years, but who cares? If you want quick results, try crossing a black Andulusian cock with a white Andaluslan hen. You'll get a brood of "blue" that Is. grayish chicks out of the first setting. In the course ! of the season, aa these blues mature and start families of their own, you'll have some more blues, but also some more black and white. Here Is the way the protocol of the chicken ex periment will look: One Interesting and Important fact la that black bred with black In any generation produce only black; white bred with white only white, but blues soma or the (grays) bred together produce a prog blacks of this eny sorting Into three classes (blacks, first generation blues, whites) in the same propor- carry a white, tion aa that produced by tha blues was uovci vua- a oi mo iitsk generation, x. is un less. When a pair possible to produce a race of "blues, of these all black I because they always produce blacks and whites as well as blues and the proportion of chicks having the fine mixture of black and white tends to decrease with succeeding generations.

Someone In the car remarked: "What poor souls eke out existence here?" And then there was noted a "For Sale" sign and gaunt farmer and his entire brood were assembled In a aide yard, all ready to depart In a trailer, loaded with valises and bundles, for greener pestures. And we hoped better for. tune. Also one wonders whence come the patrons for the Jlnkleljumbles of ceramics on sale at those roadside pottery stands.

In climaxing his hot-gospellng he In quired shrilly and paused for an an swer: "What do we see on every hand?" And a passing smart alec In a roadster shouted: "Four fingers and a thumb, you mug!"

A less experienced, and more sensitive type, mieht make an effort from time to time, to mollify the hymn-of-haters, to go out of his way to show them what they claim to be true, isn't true. But the President refuses to do so. He knows what he wants to do and he intends if possible to do it.' He regards any at tempt to please the radical opposition, as a waste of time and effort. In this he is EXACTLY right. It is foolish to try to please the Roosevelt-pholiiacs simply because it GAN'T be done. No matter what he says or does, the President to them can do no right. "PHE President's recent fireside talk it an excellent example. For months and months the grest opposition cry has been against the President's incendiary methods over the radio, rapping the heads of the Economic Royalists, appealing to the prejudices of the masses, arousing class against class, etc., etc. this was the burden of the outburst, in some quarters, against his recent Constitution Day address, although viewing that speech as a whole, it was a very liberal and effective, interpretation of that document, almost entirely free of anv- thing that could be termed, partisan or even provocative. A ND now what do we hear about Tuesday night's radio talkt Certainly an even tempered, friendly discussion of certain important issues, as devoid of animus and heat, aa Junior's favorite bedtime story. Why it was a lot of blah, a mess of glittering generalities and tiresome platitudes, not worth turning the dial to listen to. SO 1 d there you are. When the President is concerned, he is iHinned if he does, and damned if he doesn't. If he smashes back at the reactionary opposition he is trying to bring on a class war, if he devotes himself to present issues, and their elucidation, he is filling the air with a lot of whang-doodle and sweet nothings. The President is wise in going his way, and paying no attention to such opposition. rri j'tm i i i ii sT mn NEW YORK.' Oct. 14. The art of ambulandl Is almost lost to the metropolis. There are no accom plished strollers, such as Robert Cortes Holllday. Out of 100 walking clubs ten years ago. only a half dozen remain. About the only upholders of walking are the members of the Boy Scouts, Even that old stand-by, the ft o'clock promen ade on 5th ave nue Is gone. Men who used to walk from of flees to clubs now go In motor cars or taxis. Kin Hubbard used to say the only way to cross a New York street waa to lead cow. The reason, of course, Is traffic Jams. Plus the feeling of danger In braving so many crossings, checkers have found that all the important corners have from 30 to 30 per cent fewer pedestrians at ths peak hours. Visitors who have not been here In several years Immedi ately notice the slow-up of the side walk flow. One of the most auspicious sur vivors of the walking age still is Dr. John Pinley of the Times, who heels off his five miles a day no matter the weather. Most ot the valiants who used to circle the gravel path around the Central Park reservoir hav called It a day. And are seen no more. with the actor's labor of love. There winds through the grounds a com plete, practical miniature railroad. Thla was the hobby that engrossed the delineator of the Sherlock Holmes role for years.
