Defense Meeting .
Is Well Attended
By Mrs. John Bohaert
"Be prepared for the worst,
then, no matter what happens,
we wilt be ready and we will not
be taken by surprise," said Capt.
S. M. Tuttle, county defense
chairman, speaking to a gather
ing of parents and teachers that
filled the Lincoln school gymna
sium in Medford Wednesday af
ternoon. The meeting was spon
sored by the Jackson County
Council of P-T.A.
Capt. Tuttle emphasized that
"our protection is our Job," and
military forces cannot be expect
ed to do the things that county
residents can do for themselves.
It Is the duty of every citizen to
learn exactly what precautions
should be taken for defense, then
calmly make preparations.
The chance of a bomb hitting
a school building Is relatively
small, but, in event of necessity,
the school children's greatest
sa'ety lies In thorough prepara-J
tlon. Supt. E. H. Hedrlck, in
charge of school evacuation,
stated that complete Information
on this subject will be sent to
every home, and he urged strict
co-operation of every parent
Parents must not go after chil
dren during an air raid. Streets
and highways will not be places
of safety.
Protection against incendiary
bombs should begin at home,
where all rubbish, especially In
attics, should be cleaned up, and
attics made easily accessable. Ed
Mann who recently returned
fiom a school of instruction in
Portland, said every person
should make it a point to know
how to combat incendiary fires.
For the care of injured, cas
ualty stations have been desig
nated for each district. Dr. U D.
Inskeep, in charge of the medi
cal division, stated that one or
more doctors, nurses dentists,
and ambulance drivers 1 have
been assigned to each station,
and that respective districts
would assist with securing nec
essary furnishings and equip
ment.
Individuals may also aid the
cause of defense preparedness by
having a practical knowledge of
first aid. As demonstrated by
three youthful first aiders, this
Is a field of service in which
young people may also partici
pate. PT-A. units throughout the
county are co-operating closely
with the defense program, but
reports, given during the morn
ing session of Wednesday's coun
ty council meeting, indicated
that they are not neglecting reg
ular projects. Twenty-one units
reported that hot lunches are
served regularly In their schools.
Scout troops and 4H clubs are
being sponsored, uniforms for
school bands are being secured,
and many other character build
ing projects of benefit to both
the students and the community
are being carried on. Reports of
Interest were given by member
ship, magazine, and summer
round-up chairmen. .
An interesting talk was given
by Mrs. E. A. Brockway, new
county PT.-A. defense chairman,
and Mrs. B. C. Forsythe explain
ed the purpose of Founders Day
which P-T.A. will observe soon.
Those elected on the nominating
committee were Mrs. B. C. For
sythe, Ashland, Mrs. Dee New
ton. Medford, and Mrs. Brill, Elk
Creek. Just prior to the after
noon session, the Central Point
mother and teacher chorus, dl
reeled by Miss Leah Evans, sang
two numbers. Cafeteria lunch
was served by Medford city
council.

Red Cross Notes
Interest is being shown in
Red Cross war relief not only
by the older generation in this
city but the students through
out the schools in the county.
Miss Vera Humphrey, chairman
of Junior Red Cross in Jackson
county, reports that Medford
grade schools are rapidly en
rolling In this worthwhile or
ganization. Students at Roosevelt school
have enrelled 100 percent and
that Is a record for the school

Indians In Peru Bathe
Only In Warm Weather
Los Angeles, Cal. (U.R) The
Peruvian Indians take only nine
baths year and they take them
all in the month of November,
according to Dr. George M. Mc
Bride, professor of geography at
the University of California,
who has Just returned from
sojourn in their midst.
Dr. McBrlde was able to as
certain why the baths are all
taken In the month of Novem
ber, but was unable to ascertain
any definite reason for limiting
the number to nine. November,
it happens, is the warmest
month of the year in the upper
Andes. -

plateau Indian would dare bathe,
because both water and weather
are so cold as to preclude ablu
tions.and water cannot be heated
because the extremely limited
supply of fuel is needed for cook
ing. "With the warm days of No
vember each village dams up a
small pool of water and waits
for the sun to warm it sufficient
ly for bathing.
"The custom started In the
days of the Inca empire. Today,
foreign residents of the high,
cold plateau look with sympa
thetic; understanding upon the
practice, althcugh hardly willing
to limit their ablutions so se

Seattle. Jan. 23 (AP A dra
matic tale of ship's crew being
hailed as heroes for mutiny on
the Pacific was unfolded ber to
day. The crew of Russians, Chinese
and Dutch aboard the Japanese
chartered freighter took it safely
Into a port In the Pacific, authori
tative sources here reported,
with the Japanese officers as
prisoners in the brig. They were
turned over to United States au
thorities.
The epic began when a Rus
sian radio operator received re
ports of the attack on Pearl har
bor when the freighter was only
a score of miles off the Japanese
coast, en route to Yokohama
with 4,000 tons of coal. Rather
than going to the Japanese offi
cers, he took the word to his fel
low Russians, and they enlisted
the Chinese and Dutch in over
powering the officers. ,
TO
Portland, Jan. 23 UPt That
tire rationing boards soon will
be called on for other services
was seen today with the elimi
nation of the word ."tire" from
the board's name.
Carl B. Cadwell, state execu
tive secretary, learned from
CPA offices at San Francisco
that dealers would soon buy
tires from wholesalers. Many, he
said, had been unable to fill
orders of accredited, buyers be
cause of shortages in soma sizes
and types.
Refrigerator Cars
Less Plentiful Now
Shippers report they are ex
periencing mild delay in procur
ing refrigerator cars for peat
shipments, due to heavy freight
traffic on the Southern Pacific
railroad. Two plants reported
they were short one or two of
the number of cars requested
for shipments scheduled to roll
today. The pears are now mov
ing at the rate of eight or ten
cars dally to the New York and
southern states markets.
The car delay Is due, It was
surmised, to the railroad haul
ing back cars loaded from the
east, Instead of empty as here
tofore. :,.-
