Be kind to your father. For when you were young Who loved you so fondly as he? He caught the first accents that fell from your tongue And Joined In your Innocent glee. Margaret Courtney. (There have been about ten thousand poems paying tributes to mothers to one in praise of fathers. There is no justice in this situation. Even tiny infants appreciate the kindness and love of their fathers. It is a fact that more babies say "Papa" than those who start off their conver sational career with "Mama." There must be a reason.) "Here's the argument. Could a duck swim if it had no feath ers?" writes a Seattle client. "I claim it could float, but could not swim. You settle it." I pass on this argument. I just don't want to take a chance on that Milwaukee checker-upper strip ing some poor duck of his feath ers to check on it. The poor ani mal might die, either of drown ing or from catching a cold that would develop into pneumonia. Doctors Many people view herb doc tors with suspicion. Even more people view doctors who run medicine shows with suspicion. Therefore, it was extremely in teresting to note in a recent dis patch from Chicago that an herb doctor, William Williams, who "Your Office Boy' Since 1927 DESKS FILES SAFES TYPEWRITERS ADDING MACHINES Across from the Rialto Theatre RENT A CAR Daily's U-Drive and BODY and PAINT SHOP Southern Oregon's Oldest and Finest 29 So. Bartlett Medford sold his own herb remedies at his medicine shows and used these remedies to preserve his own health, lived to be 110 years of age! Asking Queries from clients. Q. We are moving from a private house in Detroit to an apartment in New York. We have a cocker spaniel who is devoted to us as we, of course, are to him. Here in Detroit he had a backyard to play in and a large house to move about in. Do you think we should give him to some people here who have a house and yard so he can live his usual life, or should we take him to New York? A. By all means, take him with you. Where you are, he will be happy. Dogs have a great tal ent for adapting themselves to circumstances. Thousands of dogs live in New York apart ments and are happy'. Just take him for a lot of walks, show him that you love him and he will be all right. If you leave him be hind, he might die of a broken heart. Briefly Am asked where there is a team of left-handed women bowlers. Believe this outfit of southpaw bowling females per forms around Chicago. ... A New Yorker suggests a "Pay Your Doctor Week."

Scott, of Seattle, Wash., has been a subscriber of the Post-Intelligencer of that city for 63 years. Can you top that record for subscriber loyal ty to a newspaper? ... A De troiter says it is illegal in the state of Michigan for a man to marry his son's widow. First time I ever heard that. Must check on it. Sounds unconstitu tional to me. ... It was that bril liant Horses & Women expert Eckharthausen who so truly ob served: "The liveliest desire of a woman's heart is not so much to please but to please more than other women." Challenged Walter D. Coakley challenges Radio Amateurs Hear League Director Talk Rogue valley amateur radio operators this week heard R. Rex Roberts, northwest division director of the American Radio Relay league, discuss amateur radio policy in relations with the United States government.

And may ye be forty years in heaven belore the divil knows you're dead." That List Annually the film theater own ers of the United States of Amer ica issue a list of the 10 best money-making film stars. This year's list is very interesting if you examine it carefully. The first three stars on the list of money makers are all comedi ans. The fourth is a western star. There are only two female stars in the list. Both are cele brated for their shapes rather than their acting ability. Ingrid Bergman is not listed among the first 10 money makers. Neither is Gregory Peck.
