Your Help Still Needed The eighth and last of the great campaigns to ftv duce Americans to loan their money to their govern' ment for footing the bills of World War II gets under way Monday. The national goal is eleven billion dol lars: our share, here in Jackson county, is $1,400,000, with $525,000 to be subscribed by E bond buyer Some people may ask : "Why do we need to buy war bonds now; The war is over. The answer is simple. The war will NOT be over until every fighting man not essential to national security or needed for occupational jobs is back in civilian life; until every war plant is converted to pur suits of peace. The war is not over until every wound ed or sick veteran has been adequately hospitalized and every war contract terminated. a a A BRAHAM LINCOLN'S words at the close of the " Civil War apply to this Victory Loan drive : "Let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle." Another hard sock must also be taken at the still serious threat of inflation. The OPA is fighting a difficult rear-guard action against rising prices. It is still possible that a disastrous inflation, kindled by the friction of huge mass buying power against prices of scarce goods, may burn up large portions of that buvine power. Monev invested in Victory Bonds will divert some of the purchasing power from the con sumer goods market and weaken the menace of in flation. This makes bond buying necessary. a e e a THE previous seven war loans have spread Hie own ership of the national debt and increased the por tion of the nation's wealth held by the people gener ally. In the words of Oregon's young and energetic war loan chief, Ted Gamble, this is "an insurance policy written around the American way of life." And, in these seven drives, Jackson county people have bought about 25 million dollars worth of all type war Donas more man iu minion uonars m bonds. Here is a vast reserve of local wealth that is certain to spell prosperity here for years to come ! THE Victory Loan campaign will be conducted by the Medford and Ashland Elks lodges, under the able leadershio of County Chairman Henry Zachari- sen. -The Elks deserve the gratitude of this com munity for assuming this task; citizens here have long been errateful to Zacharisen for his patriotic effort and energetic direction of past drives. . a a e a e THESE Victory bonds are today, just as U. S. bonds Vioirn oluroira Kaon tho wnrlrl's hpsr. and safest in- vestment. It is a responsibility of every good citizen to share in the cost of victory by buying Victory bonds to the very limit of his ability. H.C. Milk for the Navy With a serious shortage of milk at the Navy hos pital at Camp White, Captain H. B. La Favre appeal ed to the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce Fri day for assistance from this community. Cooperation in solving the critical problem was sought from local milk processors and promptly extended. a a a a a THE milk supply to the average hospital should be approximately one quart per person each day. Only half of the required amount was available, anci that had to be spread over many needs milk for bed patients, special cooking,- preparation of custards, cream soups, etc., which left just enough to serve with cereals on breakfast menus. Convalescents and staff members were deprived of fresh milk and have been forced to resort to powdered milk. OF course, this community couldn't allow this con dition to exist. Local dairymen who process the major portion of our milk supply should be commend ed for their willingness to speedily correct this situa tion. When the volume of milk produced here norm ally increases the shortage will be automatically les sened. BUT, until that time comes, any local citizen who may not be able to get that extra quart of milk from his eroeer should bear in mind that some sailor at Camp White, who really needs fresh milk every day, is getting it. H.u. . in the American revolution and were burled there, Marcus Whit ney, Amos Merritt, Jasper Endicott. And there they have been for over 150 years! No bonus for them, not even a mention In history, merely in the files probably of the Sons of the American Revolution! Going out we noticed a metal marker which had not been observed going in, and thus learned the graveyard had originally been the site of a hospital In the revolutionary war and later of St. Mark's church, the latter now housed In a marvelous and modern stone edifice near the Mt. Kisco post-office. There tco, Colonel Tarleton the iniquitous red coat! gathered his forces for the attack on Poundridge and Bedford in 1779, and there Major Andre the traitor was for a time confined. Only a short distance away is the Guard Hill road, where the Boys of '76 with their flint-lock muskets watched for the British regulars as the latter advanced north after their victory at White Plains.

Returned via Greenwich, Conn, (pronounced Gren-ITCH) and Bedford Village, N. Y., largely a collection of luxurious country estates, ranging all the way from well-kept stock farms to towering chateaus, reminding one of France. How tastes differ! Why should ANYONE, for example, wish to build a replica of the White House In this beautiful pastoral land, and surround it with a 10-foot stone fence, with wrought-iron gates' e a a a The battery of the car went dead as we entered Greenwich, and the starter, of course, died with it. Lady-Luck was with us this time, however, for only two blocks away we spied a service station. and a good one. Instead of having to buy a new bat tery, the garage man hooked our old one to a gadget on wncels and In an hour everything was OK. At least he said It was. A friend at our hotel, however, who knows more about cars than we do (no one could know less) maintains this method of renewing a battery Is a risky and unsatisfactory. makeshift. Well, we shall see, WHAT we shall sec. Stopped to get a coke at a Greenwich drug store and noted the store has been In operation since 1861. Perhaps some of tne boys In blue en route to Gettysburg were refreshed there. but hardly on coke. (What WERE tho popular civil-war drinks?) That is one of the charms of this section of the country of course, its age, the historical points of Interest, the traditional atmosphere, In short tho deep social roots going far down to the very beginning of the country. Only a short distance from this hotel for example (It ts two miles out of town) is a cemetery, which we often pass when walk ing to and fro. With some time to spare we strolled through It and In one corner ran into three moss-grown headstones, the letterma hmr'v legible, marking the final resting places of three boys who fought I say, or by what I imply to consult s physician about his or her health or lack of it, any o'. four things can happen: 1. If the doc t o r Is a Class P doctor he may Dr. Brady laugh at the pa'-ent for coming with such a trivial complaint. 2. If the doctor is a successful business man with the re putation of having a large practic? to maintain, he may listen pstiently and k.iowingly to the patient's fatuous displey of inside knowledge of "nerves" and ladle out a line of sympathy to the poor geek, and se-id the patient away no wisoi than r-efore with a prescription for the latest fancy sedative or "nerve tonic" Ten dollars. Re port a' 2 next week. 3. If the doctor is a good doc tor he may interrupt the pitlent s explanation of his or her trouble to say: Yes, yes but let's leave nerves and nervous exhaustion out of it while we try to find out what la the matter. You are tr answer my ques tions "3 well as you can without refen.ng to nerves or their functions for only in that way can the doetor even try to make an honest diagnosis. By such unbiased stuiy and exam ination the d'.etor may find a clue to the trouble and perhaps corrtct the nutri tional deficiency, the faulty hanlt or the error in hygiene that causes the trouble. 4.

In my mlno are four such chronic diseases that too often masquerade as "nerves" or "neurasthenia" but this being a health column I shall not name any such desjase. I've said all I think a roctor should rav outside ct the consult ing room, and I hope I haven't frightened or wor ied anyone more than enougi. to peisuade him or her to consult a good doc tor.
