VartlaJML M. lasMia, Attain Vumw &f0tlaTi M s3?9 Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Parry ARMISTICE DAY THOUGHT: 'It 1 not so much that Hit ler Is Invincible, though we must not underestimate him; it la rather that his victims have been so wretchedly prepared, not only materially and militar ily, but morally and psycholog tmiiv well. While we are forging a mighty cordon of steel around us, we must Buna our mental and spiritual fronts too for nations are not conquered with guns and bullets alone." (From "America In World At War.") Madam Perkins, secretary of labor, opines: "We must bring Into play upon these labor prob lems, all of our Intelligence." One school of thought holds, in telligence has been playing hide-and-seek with John L. Lewis. The Treasury department re ports everybody In the land has $77.55 In cash Several around here have agreed to split SO-SO, If the Treasury department will prove this allegation. Herr Hitler, in his last ora- torlcal eruption, talked of hu-i man beings In Europe and this, America. No doubt, there are times, when he wishes he was one. I A Jackson county resident has an 180 bear dog, but under j a law passed by the last legls-j lature, Is not allowed to use the bear dog In hunting bears.' There seems nothing much to do. but shoot the dog for a bear. THAT VIKINO SPIRIT (Nulaide, Norway, News) "An Oslo girl sitting in the lounge of an hotel was ap proached by a German offi cer asking her to dance. She refused and shortly after wards he returned and spoke In a rather flattering tone, "Is It because I am a German?" he Inquired. "Oh, no," she said. "Not at all. It Is merely because I am a Norwegian." The first fog of the season permeated and infested the val ley this am. It toned down the T o'clock drivers. Inclined to durk In and out of traffic like blind gold fish. ' EMERGENCY AHEADI "These are. Indeed, parlous days. As somebady has said. The men are being drafted Into the army. The women, too, if Eleanor has her way. Will be drafted into some sort of compulsory service Of great Importance, Of which the nature Is a yet a state secret. Perhaps they will take over the army, too. Anyhow things are going to be changed. j What worries me is this: When we get all the men Into, the army. And all the women. If we ran, ' Into whatever we are going to get them into, I If we can. What are we going to do I For somebody to go on relief?" I (K. C. SUr) j JEWELS ON TOAST j San Angelo, Tex. ((F) Mrs. j R. C. Williams lost the engage ment ring her husband gave her 2fl years ago. It turned up on a piece of toast four days later, ! Mrs. Williams believes she drop ped It In the butter, and when aha buttered the toast, she but- tered the diamond out of its' hiding place. Ga tun fnauam vaut aaa. OiiiMnii fiiiisJiirtl Another Arm istice Day Another Armistice Day I And it is clearer today than ever before, that, until the Fall of 1939, that Armistice of 1918 never ended. For Armistice is the cessation of active hostilities only. Well, active hostilities ceased 23 years ago to day, but the war for the control of Europe didn't. The fighting went on without guns, and continued until Hitler, puffed up with appeasement in a war of words, marched into Poland, and, The active phase of the World War No. ,1 was on again. DROBABLY on no former Armistice Day, has the belief been more general than on this one : That the Armistice of November 11th, 1918, was a mistake. If the allies had refused the German offer, march ed on into Berlin, FORCED the German people and the army to admit Germany, in the final test of strength, had been beaten, decisively and completely beaten ! how much better it would have been. That is the theory and with Germany on the war path again, the allied world is pretty close to a unit in that belief. DUT like most wisdom, AFTER THE EVENT, there is little consolation in the belated discovery, and even less satisfaction. The big pioblem today is not what MIGHT have happened, if something else had been done; but what ihe allied world is going to do about the situation as it exists today. And the answer to that is: beat Hitler and all he stands for, so completely and decisively that the, Theory that might makes right, will never raise its head on the surface of this planet again, and, The theory that RIGHT makes might and that such things as honesty, honor, human feeling, and fair dealing are worth living and if need be, dying for, shall forevermore PREVAIL. When that is done, and onlv when it is done. will the Armistice era be cra of something peace begin I (OoLttniMd rrara Paso On) it becomes a luxury, and instead of the conveniences REA is urg ing more millng machines. Most of the customers have been pro vided with water, but not with bathtubs, as the water is for stock and not in the kitchens. The farm wife must still depend on the outdoor pump. LOBBYISTS for Insurance companies are busy in the na tional capital trying to prevent changes in the loans made by farm credit administration. The companies are snapping up the business now and as long as the farm credit act remains as it is they have a better proposition to offer than the government agency. Despite this compcti tion farm credit administration is taking In more money than it Is paying out. The f firmer who wants a loan from FCA must take five per cent of the amount in stock as a method of guaranteeing his neighbor's loan and if the neigh bor falls down the borrower is out of luck. A farm credit loan is at 35 percent interest and expires July 1. The agricultural committee of the house is work ing to revise the act and if successful It will be revived until 1948 The committee is considering fixing the interest rate on a sliding scale based on what It costs the government to borrow Currently the gov ernment borrows at two percent and less. Suggestion is that FCA add 15 percent, the same total as now but it would be a defi nite rate for five years. Only member of the committee repre senting wheat Is Rep. Walter M. Pierce, who wants the spread reduced to one cent above what the government pays for Its loans. FCA has $700,000,000 of out standing securities due In five ears. These obligations bear four percent Interest. The sink ing fund amounts to many mil Hons of dollars, and this is the money the agency finds a prob lem child. Owing to the matur ity date of the bonds FCA can not invest this money in long time securities. It must look for something that will not carry beyond 1948. The only place the money can be invested is in government short term ob ligations treasury certificates. These certificates pay around one or two percent while FCA pays four percent, so that the agency is losing two to three percent a year. This U another nut the house committee on agriculture wil ltry to crack, a a KLAMATH FALLS, which wants an air base Is up against a peculiar proposition. There is a wildlife refuge In that vicin .'r AT ATHE- - MEDFORD MAIL definitely closed and the approaching permanent world ity and President Roosevelt has issued an order that air bases, bomb target grounds and slml lar defense activities cannot be located where they will disturb a wildlife refuge. This was one of the first policies the president enunciated when the defense program started and whenever military boards scan the coun try looking for a site they must confer with the wildlife and fish bureau of the Interior depart ment. Several locations urgent ly desired by the war depart ment have been vetoed because of the proximity of refuges. Klamath Falls may have the choice of keeping its wildlife refuge or getting rid of It to obtain an air base. The birds. according to the president's pol icy, have precedence. Grapevine report says army air corps plans 25 more bases which will cost the taxpayers millions of dollars. Pear Market Yesterday Chicago, Not. 10.

TEETH AND EXPECTATION Of LIFE Expectation of life is the du ration of life an individual of any age may expect from the averages shown In the mortality statistics. For example the expectation of life for per sons born this year in the United States Is, according to statistics com piled by the Metropol 1 1 a n Life Insurance company, about 68 years for females, about 63 years for males, but this does not necessarily imply that nag ging shortens life. The thing is to know when to duck. Due to financial depression and old age (forty-five), writes a lady we'll call Alma, who certainly doesn't let It get her down), I had to Join one of the three letter associations. If I cut my finger or burn my hand I can go to hospital and fiet immediate attention. When I am sick I can go out to the wonderful hospital where I am given a thorough exami nation, advice and medicine. If I need an operation I can get it done by the best surgeons at the hospital. But when I have a toothache there is no place to go for repairs. However, If I can hold out for months, until the tooth is beyond repair, I can have It extracted at the hospital. For lack of three- j f'Z JJJgJ 0 tvhe with them as long as I can bear it and then I give up and have 1 them extracted. This Is stark tragedy to me. Any day now I shall have to march stoically to the "chair and have anothei lower tooth out That will leave me Just seven lower teeth (front ones) and before long I must have an upper front tooth out and certainly cannot afford any thing to take Its place. I still hope to get back into circulation again in a Job, but a woman minus front tooth looks like an old hag decidedly repellent to people and this disqualifies her from a good many jobs she might otherwise get and hold. I am very grateful for all the service I have receiveJd from the relief associations but I believe you will understand how I feel about the loss of my teeth Perhaps your Influence would help to Improve this situation I have heard young mothers weep at sacrificing their teeth because they can t possibly af ford to have them filled or otherwise saved. I understand children do get their teeth filled. (Signed .) Loss of a tooth that might be saved by good dentistry is Indeed stark tragedy for any one who has a proper concep tion of health, efficiency and longevity. Probably no medical vi suibrdi . .ratine,. icil the hospitals mentioned by the correspondent Is more impor tant In this respect than timely treatment of cavities by the dentist. It Is a sad reflection on the Intelligence of the au thorities who administer relief that this most effective field of health conservation and main tenance of earning capacity Is so singularly neglected.
