A Wise Decision "
WELL the road improvement bonds carried two to one.
Had there been a larger vote undoubtedly the favorable
majority would have been proportionately larger.
For on such questions those who are oproaed always feel
more strongly than those who are in favor, and a larger propor
tion therefore take the trouble to go to the polls.
.....
SOME people are surprised that there was so much opposition.
They didn't circulate around the streets very much. Had
they done so they would have discovered a surprising amount of
anti-talk and even a more surprising amount of misinformation.
It is rather difficult to understand the cause of either for
the facts concerning the question were given wide publicity,
and the more one investigated them the less valid the objections
appeared.
Our own idea is that the people as a whole are getting pretty
well fed up on public spending, federal, state and local, and
regardless of the desirability of any certain project, are disposed
to blindly vote any new proposals down. .
Well, under the circumstances, such a reaction is understand
able, and, all in all, desirable. In this particular instance there
wag everything to be said for the proposal and nothing against,
but this column is entirely in sympathy with those who believe
that a halt in pouring out public funds, must be called SOME
time, and the sooner a START is made in that direction the
better. "
HOWEVER in this case, the city road improvements, must be
made eventually, the only vital question was whether they
should be made now when most needed, "and when government
financial aid could be secured or later on, when continued wear
and tear would have increased the cost, and no outside financial
aid would be forthcoming.
In other words the entire issue boiled down to this :
Whether Medford wanted to accept a gift of $60,000 cash,
to aid in a NEEDED public improvement, or reject it.
.....
WISELY the people, by slightly more than a two to one
vote, accepted it.
It was strange how many citizens, voted against the proposal
on the assumption this federal grant was not a gift but would
somehow have to be repaid, even though the naturo of the grant
wag explained many times. It was even more strange how many
others voted "no" in a vague, spirit of resentment and suspi
cion, oven' though -limy could present nothing tnngible to
justify their opposition. , .
In fact those who fnvorcd the bonds and had their ears
pretty close' to the ground, the week before election, were de
lighted by the result. Instead of being surprised at the opposi
tion which developed, they were surprised that it failed to get
beyond one-third of the total.
Hail to Carole, - Hail!
WHY can't they give the gal a break, eveu though she is
a movie start The other day Miss Carole Lombard an
nounced, within the hearing of all in the M.O.M. press bureau,
that she didn't mind paying taxes. More than that she liked
to do that very thing, for look what she got in return.
' And the popular comedienne enumerated some of the bless
ings of an American citizen in the upper brackets police and
fire protection; good roads to the nice national parks, public
play grounds and trout streams; the army and navy, democ
racy, freedom, peace, and what have you including Virginia
cigarettes and chewing gum.
WHY 'should SHE complain! True she had to pay sev
eral hundred thousand dollnrs each year to Unele Sam,
but she had from $50,000 to $60,000 a year left to live on and
that was all she uecded. In fact it might be a little more.
On a pinch- indeed she might be able to get along with iMOOO
a month and say two months (without pay) vacation.
Wheroupon all the cynical columnists and all the "know it
all" lads in the editorial rooms, give Carole the horse laugh,
and deplored the fact the spirited, clear thinking and unspoiled
favorite of the newspaper luds had fallen for just another
PRESS AGENT yarn I"
Of course, no one could relish plunking over $300,000 to the
U. S. Department of Internal Revenue, and struggling along
ith . marble swimming rools, Rolls-Royces mid mink coats,
on a paltry thousand dollars a week, why let tho press agents
make a monkey out of you, by pretending tol
liEBBE so, mebbe so! It may all have been a publicity
build up, that Carole knew nothing of, until she read it iu
the newspapers, for that's a habit they have in Hollywood
and one never can TELL.
But press agent yarn or no, Miss Lombard is dead right, and
'rom what we have learned of the gal, the original and
refreshing philosophy contained therein, is quite liko her.
Forty or fifty thousand dollars a year is enough for Carole,
should be enough for anyone, and if she can do the work she
likes to do and receive that stipend, why she SHOULD bo glad
to pay the government, her salary above that amount, for the
privilege of being a citizen in a country, where that is possible,
i ml there is so much in life to enjoy.
A S has been frequently stated in this column having too
MUCH money is only slightly less unfortunate than having
too LITTLE. The aim of all sa'e and right th inking people
should be to have ENOUGH,
Well Miss Lombard has JUST tliat.-ENOUUH 1 She is
independent, she is free, she is doing the sort of thing she likes
to do, if she had more than fifty or sixty thousand a year,
she would merely clutter up her life with things she doesn't
need, and assume worries and obligations and annoyances she
doesn't like. Let the government take it, to be the free citizen
of Rtieli a government is worth it,
QO three cheers for Carole 1 She is not only a good citizen,
she is an extremely wise one. Press agent or no press
agent, she has hit upon an essential principle of a philosophy
of life, which if universally adopted will make, not only a NEW
world, but a BETTER one!

BORIC ACID CAN
Boric acid wna formerly called
boraclc acid. We have to change
things every so often, otherwise mere
laymen might
begin to think
they know as
much as we doc
tors do.
Boric acid has
only feeble ierm
kllling, (germi
cidal) value If
any. but It seems
to reduce the
virulence of
pneumococcl (the
germs ot pneu-
monla, a o r e
throat, coryza, quinsy, etc.), strepto
cocci (germs of acute septicemia, or
blood poisoning) and staphylococci
(common pus-producing germs.)
Saturated solution of boric acid
(S. 8. B. A. aa It Is called In hos
pitals) means aa much boric acid In
the form of flakes, crystals or fine
powder as will dissolve In boiled
water when It Is approximately body
temperature. The water will dissolve
about an ounce to the pint, but
some of thla will precipitate as the
water cools and settle lip on the bot
tom of the bottle. The saturated so
lution at approximately body tem
perature is most suitable for use as
a mouth wash, gargle, eye wash,
nasal spray or Irrigation, ear drops
or irrigation or for moistening dress
ings. It Is sometimes used as a blad
der wash, douche or enema, but
only under specific Instructions of
the attending physician.
Used as eye drops or eye bath. If
tho solution Is near body tempera
ture, It la rather soothing to In
flammation or Irritation. Eye-drops
or an eyewash of saturated solution
of boric acid should be made up
fresh every few days. It has no defi
nite remedial value In chronic eye
troubles, but ts harmless and bene
ficial In acute Inflammations of the
eyes.
Saturated solution of boric acid
ns a. spray for tho nasal passages or
as an Irrlgntton or douche in various
forms of rhinitis, hay fever, sinus
troubles and so-called chronio ca
tarrhs, should he used agreeably
warm. Likewise the S. S. B. A. should
be comfortably warmed for use In
the ear. But It may be used with
out heating it up. as a mouthwash
or gargle. If desired. .
Many persona with chronic run
ning ear have, obtained lasting re
lief by -dropping in the ear every
night and morning a drop or two of
a solution of a level teaspoonful of
borle acid In the ounce of grain
alcohol of course, this slfould al
ways be comfortably warmed, by
standing the vial in warm water
before using. It may be used for
months If necessary.
8. 8. B. A. as drops, gargle, mouth
wash. Irrigation, douche or eye
wash practically fulfils every pur
pose an alleged antiseptic or germl- j

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The Pore Myth
Have made a bet that your state
ment that the pores of the akin do
not absorb anything la correct. Op
ponent says American Medical aa
soctatlqn has accepted the fact that
certain drugs are absorbed through
the pores. Mrs. I. B.
Answer Sit tight. Eventually you
should collect your winnings. To
date there Is no scientific evidence
that any drug la absorbed thiough
the "pores" or through the unbroken
skin. A good many docs, however,
have long believed the contrary and
they still hope to get some substan
tial evidence to support the belief.

The longer Hitler refrains from

Monday, after Sunday's war scare.
Why?
The answer is obvious. The stock

people, all over the world, feel sure
that war Isn't good for business.
When war threatens, they hasten to

ITS a pity the dictators and the

ALLY can't realize as clearly as the
ordinary run of people that war Isn't
good for business.
(And, while we're on that subject,
it's a pity that EVERYBODY In this

admit that INDUSTRIAL WAR is
bad for .business. Business thrives on
sensible co-operation and sickens

Why wouldn't It work the fame way

Again the answer is obvious. In
1814, Europe had been at peace 'or
a generation or so, and had accumu
lated wealth and built up credit. This
credit could be used for the purchase
of supplies In this country.
Now Europe Is teetering on the
brink of bankruptcy. Her credit is

to sell her Is for CASH, and she
hasn't much cash.
That Is what war does.

water runs deep."
Also true takes a Chevrolet
when the hill's steep.
A great satisfaction to know
you've ample power
To climb mountain grades

It's great to know you've
brakes for a steady glide.
Also to know that no make
of car ever built
Has any edge on you
