TUB COST OF HEROICS (Paisley News) "Paisley boasts a cat popula tion of only about 600, accord ing to the latest backyard cen sus, ao It waa with real con cern that neighbor bore the news to neighbor that a catastrophe was taking place, and In no time at all quite a crowd of aifltatcd spectators gathered at the spot. Not flinching In thla time of stress and strain, three big-hearted volunteers stepped forward to do the rescue act, and lo. fished the struggling' form of terror-stricken pusa from the maelstrom, but not until they had practically demolished the flume to make the extrication possible." The Danish count t nd husband of the A & 10c hetreas, as the price for a divorce, only wanta SVOOO.000 and the custody of the child. From the way Hla Highness la acting up. It Is probably worth It. Besides a lad foolish enough to march to th altar with him. might still be umier the spell and remit. The Count also exhibits considerable romantic spunk. He threatens to "shoot a gentleman of London, like a dog." This would be done In a royal and unusual manner from the hip. and through the lilp pocket. Friends say he doea this quite well. Nevertheless. there Is always the chance the Count would wound himself, and then scamper around the field of honor with his pants on fire. Fire Control in Jackson Co. ONLY one lone blaze in the foresti of Jackson county over the recent two-day holiday I Here is a record that reflects splendid public cooperation with national and state forest 'officials who urged caution in woods; it is evidence of increasing public knowledge of HOW to avoid the starting of forest fires. Fire, that devastates over fifty million dollars of the timber wealth of this nation annually, is facing formidable opponents in this public awakening; this spreading knowledge on the part of those who EN.I0V the forests, as well -as new, improved CONTROL) methods employed by those who OARE FOR the forests. ' , Forestry officials have established the fact that a large percentage of all forest fires are man-caused 1 There will always be forest fires caused by lightning; they cannot.be avoided. MAN-CAUSED FIRES, HOWEVER, CAN BE PREVENTED It is with this type of forest fire that forestry officials are most concerned in their prevention program. . , THAT progress is being made in this campaign in southern Oregon is indicated by these interesting and encouraging figures: Man-caused fires decreased from 50 in 1934 to 14 in 1937 within the Rogue River National Forest; in 1934, 24 fires caused by careless smokers devastated 2645 acres in this area while last year there were but six smoker-fires with 45 acres burned I Even more gratifying are the records for 1938! Only five man-caused fires are on the Rogue River National Forest's reports, four started from the carelessly tossed cigarette; one from a fire-cracker set off ten days ago by an over-exuberant and premature celebrant. Acainst these steadily diminishing figures should be taken into consideration the continually increasing number of those who seek pleasure in the forests; avail themselves of the im proved recreational facilities provided in recent years. TIMBER, worth millions' of dollars, is not the only trust of those who guard our forests against fire ; there are essen tial watersheds controlling floods and assuring all-important water for irrigation and city use. Vast resources in wild life and the increasingly important recreational industry are de pendent upon forests. A glimpse into the operation' of the Rogue River National Forest Service shows convincing proof that Jackson county's vast national forests are in able hands. This service extends its fire control activities over an area nearly one and one-quarter million acres in extent, 892,000 acres of actual national forests! The State Forestry depart ment, the Klamath Indian Agency and National Park service work in close cooperation, inter-changing fire detection and control services for maximum efficiency. Twenty-three weather "ratine-" stations, known in forestry parlance as "danger stations", provide Heather readings which arc coordinated at ranger stations; if it's "firo weather," added precautions are viffilance: firo fiehtcrs are made ready for instant call 1 v HIE It factors further safeguard the forests of Jackson countv. Through the establishment of numerous Civilian Conservation Corps camps in this district, small armies of fire fighters arc ready for instant call; efficiently trained, disci plined, well organized and properly equipped. While not on fire duty. CCC crews have accomplished much iu the cleaning- up of the forests and the removing of fire hazards, mister rust crews, contributing their valuable work in Jackson county forests, are likewise subject to call and are ctticieni on me line of firo. To augment the task of firo lookouts, United Air Lines pilots report fires while making their routine flights. Forest firo prevention and control have been reduced to a icnee: efficiency and organization mark the activities of the Rogue River- National Forest Service. The public is proving a willing helper in this worth while work. - ND so, if you are going into the forests for a Sunday outing or an extended camping and fishing trip, take these simple precautions : Be careful of pipe, cigarette and cigar; uoui loss them out of the car or at the side of the trail until you are SURE they are OUT! e Be sure your match is OUT; break it in two before you throw it away I Be careful WHERE and HOW you build a fire; clear away all inflammable material; build a safe fire trail around your camp; be sure to get your camp-fire permit UNLESS you camp in a designated and posted improved forest camp. e Bo sure that you have a regulation axe, shovel and water container, if you are a camper Never break camp until you are SURE that your fire is safely extinguished; wet the ground around the fiie; be sure ALU SPARKS are out.

PAINFUL SPURS ON HEEL BONE ' ' V "J BaBaajasiAiLnad A reader tells how he suffered with a formation of bony spurs under tha heel bone limping, ach ing, swollen feet. He consulted di vers cnlroprac- tora. shoe store foot "apeclallsta,1 free clinic, fin ally went to an orthopedic hos pital. There young doctor ad vanced the opin ion that the trouble was due to . heel apure, and they made an X-ray nega tive which show ed the doctor waa right. Very well. What was the next thing? Should the patient proudly flap hla wings and crow? The Idea of a man growing spurs In hla heels may be funny to casual readers, but It la not at all funny to the patient or to his dependents Women grow or develop these painful, disabling heel spurs as fre quently aa men do, particularly women whose occupation keeps them on their feet long hours. Anyone who happens to grow these osteophytes (can you beat us docs finding Imposing names for condi tions we don't understand very well?) may Indulge In his or her gambling propensity as freely as this reader did, by consulting every conceivable Irregular or unqualified practitioner about It before taking any serious step to find out what the trouble ts and what should be done about It. The young doctor In the ortho pedlc hospital advised nothing could be done about It except to wear soft horse.shoe pads of sponge rubber un der the heels. But by now the pati ent naturally felt equal If not su perior In knowledge and he was not satisfied. So he bethought him of medical acquaintance the super intendent of a large hospital, and casually dropped Into the super's office. The super listened to the history and bade the visitor to stick around a .while. In the hospital were doctors who know that something can and should be done for the victim of heel spurs whose working capacity Is threatened or destroyed by the disability. The spurs should be surgically removed. This may be done under local anes thesia or under general anesthesia. It brings Immediate and permanent relief. Our reader, however, conducted his own researches and finally de vised what he calls "leather cor ners In the heels of my shoes," and wearing these shoes he found auch relief that he was able to resume work, and In the course of a year the spurs ceased to give any trouble, even with ordinary shoes. Thla man Is, perhaps purposely, vague about the "leather corners" to which he ascribes his recovery, ao I can give no more definite In-: formation about them the man evidently regards his device as an invention. Usually a horseshoe -shaped saddle or pad of thick felt or soft leather fixed Irt the heel of the shoe so as to support the heel all around except across the front,- Is .most comfortable.

"curse of bigness" are now the cen tral doctrinal text of the new deal. The enforcement of free competi tion Is qualified, however, in four directions. First, by such measures as the wa?e-hour bill, the new deal ers would establish a competitive level. Second, by such agencies as the securities and exchange commis sion, they would regulate business practices. Third, by labor and social legislation, they would ease, the lot of the workers and the poor. And, fourth, In Industries where monopoly Is natural and unavoidable, or too well-established to be destroyed, some of the new dealers would substitute public for private ownership. To this last, even in the utilities industry, the president probably does not subscribe, and each of the men around him would give you a differ ent opinion on the problem. Al though the belief In public owner ship Is widespread, it has always been concealed, for political reasons. Yet It has Importantly affected the new deal course. The utilities policy, for example, has been conceived by pub lic ownership men, and that Is why, even when the utility companies have showed some sense, compromise has always proved so difficult.

At the same time, It Is quite as radical as the economy planning of such banished favorites as Rex Tug well. Big business Is here, and the process of breaking It up Is sure to be more painful, than the NRA process of dominating and planning it. But the most Important things about the program are that It pro vides a workable basis for political realignment, and that, if it produces realignment It will require a marked and startling change In American governmental method.

But If the president can form a new liberal party and Install It In office to exercise these vast powers, the party will fall If It is. led by old fashioned American politicians. Such a government as the president and his circle envision can only be managed by experts, intellectual tech nicians. In these last years, the president has used his private ad visers as his technicians and experts. While thsy have marked defects, of partisanship, political Irresponsibil ity and Inexperience, they have serv ed him pretty well. But. In the future, it will be necessary to find permanent places at the council table for men of their type, without their failings. The problem of the president. In perpetuating his new deal Is to find political successors who will associate with new dealers. Council raises salaries, and passes clean-up ordinance.
