Editorial Correspondence
New York City, N.Y., June 13 With the city reservoirs over
90 per cent full Francis Cardinal Spellman of the New York Cath
olic Archdiocese -terminates his appeal for dally prayers for rain ai
follows: . , .
"It Is evident that God in His goodness and mercy has
deigned to answer the prayers of His humble lervanti by
granting sufficient and wholesome rain."
There was no reference by Cardinal Spellman to the services
of the Harvard rainmaker, who, with a reported loss of 82 million
gallons for the day, took off once more in his airplans to "seed the
Clouds." e e e
Tonight the subject for "Town Meeting" will be "When Are
We Too Old To Work?" .
We never heard of any of the speakers on the program and
regard the subject as silly anyway. In fact, "Town Meeting" since
it went on s half hour instead of an hour schedule, has been de
teriorating rapidly. If we were In Mr. Denny's shoes we would
declare a long vacation and during the breathing spell try to get a
sponsor who would agree to purchase at least 80 minutes time. No
subject of importance can be debated satisfactorily in 30 minutes,
particularly when so much of the time Is taken up with bell ring
ing, commercials and irrelevant announcements.
e e e
The summer evening band concerts have started Over In Cen
tral park. The bass drummer of the band could testify as to when
one is too old to work. His name is Gus Helmecke, and he played
In Sousa's band at the Chicago World Fair In 1893. (The under
signed was there!) Gus is exactly 80 years old and according to
the band leader never misses a note or a nod, with either drum
stick or cymbals. However, according to Gus, If he had been a
cornet or a piano player he would have been washed up long ago.
(Also if he had been a ditch-digger.) How long a person should
work depends not only upon the nature, health and temperament
of the individual, but the nature of the work.
e e
Here is another age note:
Archibald Crossley, president of Crossley, Inc., national public
opinion research organization, graduated at Princeton yesterday
at the age of 83. Mr. Crossley left Princeton In 1917 after three
years of study, to go to work. Now having made "a competence,
he returned and at last has his A.B. to hang on the wall, and a
record of being the oldest man ever to graduate at the famous
New Jersey university.
An even more unusual case Is that of William E. Haskell,
assistant to the president of the New York Herald-Tribune. Has
kell went to Worcester Academy but never graduated from that
institution, or any other, with the exception of "Alcoholics Anony
mous." However, he did after much wandering make a place
and a name for himself. So, following the suggestion of certain
alumni the trustees of Worcester invited Haskell to attend an
alumni luncheon whereupon the alumni president presented him
with a diploma as of the class of 1903, declaring Mr. H. a man
"truly educated in the most complete and cosmopolitan sense of
the word." So-o- there is more than one way to skin a cat and se
cure a sheepskin, at three-score

DIVERS KINDS
Dentist writes that he believes
students who wish to become
dentists should be required to
take regular
medical course
leading to the
degree M. D.
(Doctor of Med
icine) and then
two years of
further study
leading to the
degree D. D. S.
(Doctor of Den
tal Surgery) or
the degree D.
M. D. (Doctor
of Dental Med-
D. Brady iclne). This, the
dentist thinks, would place the
dentist in the same position as
the M, D. who specializes in a
particular branch of medicine or
surgery.
I think so too. I have advo
cated that very reform on many
occasions, and Invariably I get
an angry reaction from the den
tists. It Is notable, however, that
at Harvard Dental School and in
some other school in Balti
more or Philadelphia students
who desire to become dentists
must now obtain the M. D. de
gree and then take whatever
special or technical Instruction
they require to qualify to prac
tice dentistry which, after all,
is a special branch of medicine
or surgery and rnt a science or
art apart.
If dentists were so trained
they would indeed command
full recognition by their col
leagues, the physicians and sur
geons. Since the dentists broke
away from the parent profession
a little over a century ago they
have not shared as fully as they
should In the advantages and the
responsibilities of the medical
profession. But that's the way
most of the old timers in den
tistry like it. That's the reason
why they insist on maintaining
separate dental schools. These
facts annoy and anger the den
tists, or at least the old timers,
whenever I allude to them, but
1 don't give a good good
health is all I care about.
Even though they may not say
much about it for publication
leaders in the dental profession
generally agree that It would be
a boon to health, personal health,
everybody's health, if dentistry
were reassimilated by the parent
protession.
For that matter, Isn't It time
that some sort of restriction or
regulation were imposed upon
the trade use of the title "Doc
tor?" I mean for the protection
of the public, the layman who
seeks a physician, the customer
or prospective patron who, all
loo often, must select a physi
cian without any assurance of
the stanuing of the one he se
lects. If a visitor, traveler or stran
ger in the community requires
a doctor and consults the person
who holds himself or herself out
as Dr. Doe, the chances are about
even that Doe will be a dentist,
an adjuster, a manipulator, a
spectacle fitter, a hair dresser, a
food expert, a podiatrist or eke
a practicing physician. General
ly this confusion is merely ab
surb and annoying, but some
times it is tragic. The pity of it
is that so many people who
should know better assume that
"the law "permits no one to call
himself "Doctor" unless he is
fully qualified to do so. In Yan
kecland "the law" gives phony
"doctors" virtually unlimited
freedom to exploit popular cred
ulity. Not that reputable, licensed
dentists haven't the sa ne legal
right ot use the title "Doctor"
that licensed physicians have.
Finally, I confidently believe
that within the next three dec
ades all prospective dentists will
graduate in medicine before they
begin whatever postgraduate
courses thev may require to

Don Ivle comes to Camp White
early each morning with a load
of dairy products from Jorgen
sen's dairy. Don has lived In
Medford since 1036, coming here
from Roseburg. Before that he
spent some years in Salem dur
ing his early boyhood.
He spent 18 months in France
and Germany as a -'oot soldier in
General Clark's 63rd infantry
division. The war was good to
Don, he came out of it without
a scratch. Married now, he and
Mrs. Ivie have one youngster.
Due to the fact hat he goes to

man has Jong afternoons
on his hands.
Right now Little and Big
Butte creek, as well as the Ap
plegate, have his favorite streams
and his trout takes have been
excellent.
When they were handing out
service pins over at Post 15 of
the American Legion the other

personnel were on the list. Hon

ecutive officer, 30 years; Paul
A. Hatton, domocllltary mana
ger, 25 years; "Ty" Teorey,
arts, crafts and hoppy shop, 20
years, and John L. Kelly, chief
of special services, five years.
The first three mentioned are
veterans of the Old War and
Kelly, a kid from World War
Two. .
Beginning this week, a
desk will be placed at the en
trance of the Administration
building and two volunteer
workers will be supplied with
all Information about the dom

tribute to anyone who wants to
take a copy home. They will al
so have answers for all ques

act as guides to take the public
throughout the facility.

that this service will better ac

From Camp White
the last war. One daughter and
son stayed home. It Is easily
understood why Mary DeBerry
is interested in the disabled vet
eran. "The Prince of Peace Rides
Again."
This was the title chosen by
Chaplain L. H. Camp, state
chaplain of the Disabled Ameri
can Veterans, when they were
in convention at Eugene this past
week. The memorial services
were given by Chaplain Camp in
the chapel of the Methodist
church and a capacity audience
was held spellbound by this
minister of Jackson county.
Two well known soloists sang
and a bugler played Taps to the
roll of drums. v
Roll call of the departed dead
was given and as the name was
called a small cross was placed
on a blanket of green grass bor
dered with flowers. Those who
witnessed the solem occasion
were deeply impressed.
Word comes from VA, hospital,
Portland, that Hans Sorenson,
the durable Dane, will soon be
returned to Camp White. He
went to Portland for surgery
and he has now practically re
covered and will be seen again
at his work bench where he so
skillfully cuts the stones into
rings and necklaces.
The convention of Disabled
American Veterans in Eugene
was somewhat different than
most service organization gath
erings. There is not the hilarity
for one thing. Maybe it is be
cause the most of those attend
ing can't get over the ground as
fast as they used to.
They seem to be a far more
serious minded group. It may
be because their one objective is i
the care and hospitalization of
the disabled veteran. Anyway,
they are not going around with
long faces, and on the other hand
they were not hollering and yel
ling in their efforts to make the
town aware of the fact that they
were in convention. They were
there for business nine-tenths of
the time.
Ralph D. Brlckey, member of
Company 1, Camp White, who
spends eight hours a day cutting
meat for the kitchen, has had a
career of military service that
extends from the Mexican bor
der to five fronts in Europe dur
ing Fracas I, and several years
with the merchant marine while
our Kids were doing their Job in
winning Argument II.
Old Campaigner Brickey is a
lot of fun to visit and has a fund
of stories that are endless. While
as chief steward aboard the S.S.
William Glackens, voyage No. 4,
Brickey wrote an article which
was published in Yank maga
zine. The war was still on and
the piece that he wrote is en
titled "Observations of an Old
Steward." It received wide no
tice. At the DAV convention It was
good to see Johnny Parsons
again. "Jawn" was one of Ore
gon's greats in the pre-'17 days
and it was his running in the
Rose Bowl,. New Years day,
1917, that produced a win over
the University of Pennsylvania,
14 to 0. People around Medford
