The Jury did not recom mend leniency for unpremedl- ated heroism. e Statistics show mora people committed suicide in normal (as they are called) times, than dur ing World War II. Several rea sons have been advanced why this should be. People may want to stay alive to see how the politicians mess up the peace, after the generals have won the war. The politicians have already announced they ' will not make the mistakes of 1918, and vow they have read the advice Gen. Pershing gave then, but was stubbornly ig nored. There are signs they will not make old mistakes, but big ger and better ones, this time. . The Treasury department an nounces It will crack-down on the, "free spenders" of the na tion. There are no signs, like charity, this will begin at home. "He has this food business di vided up among six or seven agencies, no one of which knows what the other is doing. This means confusion, not only in action but in knowledge of what is happening." (S. F. Chronicle.)

Weitarn Thrift Store Editorial Correspondence Palm Springs, March 20: Warming up today, chiefly because there is no breeze. Mercury went up over 80 in the patio around 3 p. m., and all the gals and boys were out, like mud-turtles sun ning themselves on a log in Dave's cove. e ' e e e Don't let anyone tell you It doesn't get hot here In summer. The colored boy mowing the lawn and shaking down the grapefruit stopped to show us a little bare spot a patch of white sand sur rounded by fine green grass grown there like Bing Crosby's noggin. "It'll all be like dat by June," he said, "no grass fall, things list go back to where they come from desert." "You mean this wonderful lawn will be gone why don't you sprinkle it7" "Don' do no good mistah caln't put 'nough water on it to keep it 'live Jes burns off and we starts new lawn next Fall." "You mean they all do that In Palm Springs?" "Shore's you alive, It's plant lawn every year here less you put in sumethin' like Burmuda grass that can stand the heat common lawn grass cain't, and Bermuda grass don't look purty and turns brown in the winter when all the folks is here. So it's a new lawn each year." There Is the answer for those bad as an all-year resort. Speaking of Blng's hlrsutal covering, he was the only ona of the foursome to wear a hat. It cocked on one side of his head and pinned in with a couple of golf picks. One of the fresh kids there were a score of them in the gallery yelled out at the first tee,' when there was moment of silence, "why don't you take your hat off Bing?" Blng never looked up or smiled but continued to study the head of his driver as he swung the foot idly. Bob Hope took It in of course a fox and give one the impression of being on constant alert but he didn't have any comeback for that one, or if he had one, thought it best to skip It, He was right. (Getting bald is no Joke for a mantic roles!) But there has been a great advance in the art of toupee-making since Hollywood came into being. pictures but no one would guess It. For there is no attempt to give him a normal and complete head of hair, he is given a partial patch, covering up the badly bald spots achieving an ensemble which suggests he still has considerable occipital flora but it Is beginning to get thin in spots, particularly in front. They say Blng's hair doctor pays one of the largest income taxes in Los Angeles County if J. D. Rockefeller, Sr.,. were alive today it wouid be even larger! The national curfew has cramped Palm Springs' style more than most places for not In the "village" itself so much but outside there are many night-clubs and gambling spots. Before Byrnes' edict the big money was made In AFTER midnight, As far as we have been able to find out the curfew is strictly observed here and revenues therefore have been cut in half if not worse. We refuse to shed any tears over the fate of these institutions, particularly in war time however. (We will admit the chief complalners to date have been the service men here on leave and the convalescents those who have recovered sufficiently to be up and about. They are looking for "escape.") Ran into an old friend today where on the western front" the service which Is apparently more dangerous than generally sup posed, although his condition is reported "not serious." We had a long talk, and both of the major failures of our particular generation was our inability to secure a faith of some sort that could help us "to bear the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" more resolutely and uncom plainingly than has been possible at least for MOST of us. Not necessarily a faith in any dogma although all such faiths would greatly help but some sort of BELIEF that would be entirely rational, realistic, logical and yet sustain one, give one the spiritual support so to speak, to take tragedy even heart-breaking TRAGEDY in one's stride, and make the struggle of life (and times such a struggle.) The undersigned believes we had something there. We believe SPIRITUALLY speaking the present writer's gen eration has MISSED SOMETHING. have been exceptions of course but unless we are greatly mistaken, the rank and file who are entering or have entered the grand father and grandmother stage now, as a .whole, lack the faith oi their forefathers that had it been theirs, would have helped them immeasurably now in this tragic and war!

OPA GIVES VETERANS CHANCE FOR BUSINESS Changes in ration regulations have been made to permit vet erans of this war to open small business places making use of rationed foods, according to an announcement from the Portland office of OPA.

I I I par. uij em i The First Presbyterian Church is celebrating this Sun day, the 60th anniversary of its founding. Special speaker will be the Rev. Dr. Russell V. De Long, who is also to conduct the United Pre-Easter services for the Medford churches dur ing the coming week. On March 29th, 1885, In con nection with the meeting of the Presbytery of Oregon, the First Presbyterian Church of Med ford was organized with nine charter members. They were: E. P. Geary, M. D., Mrs. Agnes McCormack Geary, Mrs. Sarah L. Williams, Mr. Walter S. Gore, Mrs. C. A. Gore, Mrs. Lizzie Johnson, Peter Simon, Mrs. Elizabeth Simon and Dr. Martin Vrooman. The organization of a church with so small a group was a real venture of faith and far-sighted vision in development of the valley. That their vision was Justified is manifest today. The church was in large meas ure the outgrowth and by product of the labors of Rev. M, A. Williams, one of the earli est of the pioneer missionaries of southwest Oregon, Rev. Wil liams had for many years car ried on his ministrations to the early settlers of this area trav eling by horse-bacf from settle ment to settlement visiting miners' shacks and settlers' cab ins. He became affectionately known throughout the region as "Father" Williams. For many years the church was housed in a substantial brick structure on the corner of Main and Holly street. In 1927 the present commodious and modern building at Holly and Eighth street was completed. Fifteen ministers have served the congregation during its 60 years of history. The present minister, the Ra,v. Harry Han sen, becamtt pastor in Septem ber, 1942. TO BE OBSERVED AT CAMP WHITE The Jewish Passover, known as the "Season of Our Freedom" by members of the Jewish faith, begins March 28 this year. It's observance in Medford will be marked by a Passover Seder at Camp White the evening of March 28 for all officers and enlisted personnel of the Jew ish faith. The Seder will be conducted In traditional form and the food prepared by a special staff at the camp assisted by the local Army and Navy committee of the Jewish Welfare Board. During the Passover festival week, matzos, or unleavened bread is eaten as a reminder of the hurried departure from Egypt in ancient times, when bread had to be baked in haste without time for the dough to ferment. It will be part of the Seder service here and the Jew ish Welfare Board has provided an ample supply both for the Seder and for home use. Other special foods associated with the Seder will be prepared here. Services at Camp White will be conducted by Corporal Tieger stationed at the local air base, who Is a cantor of outstanding Teaming up It the real American Way that always results la progress.
