It you were thcre.t. seeing
the misery of our Allies
meeting the homesickness and
fatigue of our fighting men and
seamen . . . you'd be doing the
very things your dollars do for
you when you give through the
united campaign of the National
War Fund and Medford Com
munity Chest.
um Mall Tribune Want Ada,
: Wednesday, December 15, will be the deadline
for the close of the Medford Community and War
Chest campaign and, within the next five days, over
$5,000 must be raised to put the drive "over the top."
Increased effort and added public generosity will be
necessary during these few remaining days.
CHARITY begins at home but should not stop
there. Aecordincr to an old Droverb. It does not
stop there because the United War Fund and Med
ford Community Chest are now combined. But
giving to this fund is NOT charity. Instead, it is the
wartime ',ob of every citizen. Our dollars contributed
to this Chest fund will perform many jobs. They will
maintain the morale of our own men, wherever they
may fight. They will be used to help our allies and
to keep them in the fight They will help the needy
and sustain the fighting spirit of our own home front.
To fail in meeting this wartime responsibility is
unthinkable.
To fall short of our $43,000 goal will mean cur
tailment of the urgently needed service of the Sal
vation Army, the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Girls' Com
munity club, Jackson County Public Health associa
tion and the Jackson County Recreation Committee.
It will' mean the shirking of our obligation to the
U.S.O-. United Seamen's Service," War Prisoners Aid
and 14 other agencies extending urgently needed re
lief to our gallant allies.
PERHAPS this fact has not been thoroughly under-
This is 23 separate drives all rolled into one. Ob
viously, the contribution formerly given to the local
Community Chest is not enough. It should be at least
two and one-half time ' greater and you won't be
asked to give again in other drives during the ensuing
year with one exception the Red Cross. That cam
paign has been apart from Chest drives in past years
and will continue on the same basis.
ALREADY 3200 firms and individuals have do-
nated. This satisfactory number indicates that
the SIZE, of contributions has not been enough to meet
the bed-rock, carefully budgeted needs of all 23 or
ganizations in this COMBINED Community and War
unest campaign. Xnere is but one answer
Those who have overlooked their personal obliga
tion to their community, their nation and their allies
must give now and generously. n
Those who have already given must, if at all pos
sible, increase the size of their contribution.
MEMBERS of the 96th Infantry Division have as-
4T sumed their share in a most liberal manner. This
community is sineerely grateful. To other service men
in this area, particularly those who live in Medford
and enjoy the benefits of the six local Chest agencies,
we offer a friendly reminder that their support is
urgently needed.
'.
CO, add up the gifts you would give to each of the
six home Chest agencies and the seventeen war
agencies. Then send a check covering the total now
- -today to the Medford Community Chest and Wai
Fund, care of either Medford bank, the Jackson
County Chamber of Commerce or Copco.
Let's wind up the job NOW 1 H.G.
News Behind
The News
By Paul Malloo
(Oonunu. from Pas Out)
behind him are laying the
ground for it.
rONT ask me to offer any res
' sonable accounting as to. why
this is so. Attacks on Byrd
merely will furnish mare water
on his political wheel In the
south. The southerners have no
intention of surrendering, and
will block aU action of the Gut
feyites.
The charge that they are in, an
"unholy alliance" with Republi
can Joe Pew Is only remote po
litical banter. The basis of the
Guffey charge Is that the format
Delaware Senator Townsend, as
chairman of- the republican sen
atorial campaign committee
worked against the soldier bill.
Townsend Is more DuPont
than Pew and neither Rene Du
Pont nor Pierre has co-operated
closely with Pew. There is no
evidence that they are in i
working league on any subject
and probably may be against
each other on presidential candidates.
But to fight, the democratic
civil war all over again once or
twice each year in the senan
without results, has enabled the
northern democrats in the paj'
to make special personal ap
peals to the voters of the liberal
groups in their own commu
nities (C. I. O. likes It). This
strategem, however, seems to
have outworn its effectiveness.
The same old farce, therefore
likely Is to be played through
again without change In the plot
or ending, but with Mr. Guffey
in a leading tuie that no one else
seems to want.
WITH - all the thousands of
words of explanation offered
for the casualties of the ma
rines, suffered at Tarawa, it
seems Inconceivable that the
whole story yet has been told

POOR KIDI HO VICTUALS
w
Attached Is a snapshot of our
year old son who, thanks to your
teachings and advice and the
Brady Baby
Book and Pre
paring for Ma
t e r n 1 1 y, has
been happy
and healthy
since the day
he was born.
(From the
picture I'd say
the boy is two
years old, and
I'll bet a com
plete set of
ui eiaoy Little Lessons
in the Ways f Health against a
smokablo pipe that the baby
weighed, as much when the pic
ture was taken as the average
healthy child weighs at the age
of two years which is 27 Vi
pounds for boys, 26 pounds and
ten ounces for girls.)
AH of us have the greatest
confidence in you and look for
ward with interest to your daily
column. J was especially pleased
wim preparing lor Maternity.
I would appreciate your ad
vice on a problem that has risen.
After attempts to wean the baby
from the bottle I finally took it
away entirely, hoping he would
relent and drink, but for four
days he went until supper time
and then took a fourth of a cup
ful, and then I gave him food.
Other mothers say they had jhe
same xroume, but ineir Dames
have finally given in. This
young man seems more stub
born. I don't believe he dislikes
milk, but he likes solid food
more.
(Mrs ..)
Milk is all right, Ma'am, but a
fella wants victuals too. I sym
pathize with the young man be
cause, altho I go for hashed
brown, baked, roasted, boiled
scalloped French fried, julienne
and shoestring potatoes, the very
suggestion of mashed potato is
sure to bring on one of my
spells. At Thanksgiving nt
gran'ma's once they made me
eat mashed potato before I could
have any turkey.
Good plan to begin giving
baby some milk, soup, gruel or
fruit Juice from cup daily at age
of seven months, to promote de
velopment of the mouth-throat
muscle mechanism used in tak
ing food that way.
When weaning from the bot
tle withhold the bottle, but of
course give the baby other food

vegetables weU cooked and
strained thru coarse sieve, - to
mato Juice, meat broth, soup.
By the time a baby is 14
months old, at the latest, bottle
feeding should be finally dis
continued, even the last thing
at night. If the practice of feed
ing something from cup is start
ed early, as indicated, weaning
from bottle will give little trou
ble. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Doctor Approves
If you have any doubt about the
attitude of the tank and file of the
medical profession you should hear
our leading physlclana. Dr. M .. and
Dr. , telling ui to "art Dr. Brady
about that." ...You certainly seem
to know what you are talking about
before you expreea an opinion. (L.F.)
Answer Yet eome people- complain
that I Introduce "controversial" quea
tlona here. If I do, I ttj to give the
reader mv conscientious opinion or
belief about it, anyway, and thata
more than some of tha "conserva
tive" old geeaera conducting health
columns do for their readers, rf the
question la debatable,. I offer my
osrsonal opinion. In any case I
assume full responsibility 'for It and
never dodge responsibility by Imply
ing that tne teaching is inat or some
unidentified "medical authority."
Breath Testing

room furnishings at Camp Tule
Lake, Mr. Ellis stated that the
situation was "desperate.- tie
stated that the men at tne camp
had been on an alert basis since
Nov. . that no leaves were grant
ed and consequently the need for
recreation facilities at the camp
itself, recently enlarged, was
critical. The council voted to take
immediate steps to secure both
furnishings and recreation mater
ial if possible and an effort will
be made to have some of the fur
niture made in Grants Pass and
Klamath Falls schools, as is done
here.
Mr. Gray spoke concerning the
Isolated Coast Guard stations on
the Oregon coast and stated these
were in need of desks, chairs, or
lumber to make them, washing
machines, flat irons and fishing
equipment. He added that these
coast guardsmen are on a 24-hour
on-and-off schedule which gives
them much leisure time. Some
athletic equipment has been pro
