MAIL TRIBUNE
Happy Birthday Four Times
Happy birthday everybody whose birthday is to
day! For you are entitled to quadruple greetings this
February 29th. - .
The rest of us whose natal anniversaries are on
ordinary, mundane dates (and they seem to come
along faster as the years pass) can view with envy
those who celebrate only on the rare, exotic day that
comes but once in four years. E.A.
Inefficient Calendar
. A thought that goes with the greeting ' above is
that the present calendar is an unwieldy and ineffic
ient thing. - ; .-; ."
For most: of tfiose. ; who can " remember which
month has how many days, it is necessary to go
through the old nursery ; rhyme, "Thirty , days hath
September . . . " and so on. The quarters are uneven
as well as the months. Except for those tied to a spec
ific day of the week (like Thanksgiving or Labor
day), holidays fall, helter-skelter, on all days of the
week. Sometimes they come in the middle, sometime
at the end, creating, a three-day holiday.
THERE has .been noticeable reluctance to change
the calendar by many people. Some of them ob
ject on religious grounds, with which one can hardly
argue, except to point out that the calendar, after all,
is a ; man-made contrivance . and convenience, has
been, changed before, and a new one would be no
more difficult to adjust to than is the present Gre
gorian calendar. -
For the most part, however, the reluctance to
change, has been a matter of simple lethargy, rather
than active objection. But it is a fact that businesses
in this nation alone- are spending millions of dollars
annually in bookkeeping operations which would be
curtailed or eliminated uhder a scientifically-designed
calendar.
ONE SUCH calendar has long been worked out,
and is now in a state of suspended animation in
the councils of the United Nations.-The year : 1956
was originally the "target date"-for its adoption, but
because nations (including the U.S.) were slow to
aDBrove it. the date has now been moved up to 1961,
when the old and new calendars coincide sufficiently
to make a change-over possible. . ,
The proposal is called," simply enough "The
World Calendar." In it, the first month of each' quar
ter (January, April, July and October) has 31 days.
The others each have 30 days. All have 26 week
days. Each quarter starts
a Sunday. A solar, year is
utes and 46 seconds; so that a year doesn't come out
"even" in terms of days. This is taken care of by a
Worldsday each year, and
iour years.
OOME people have strong feelings about the sub-

we do feel that the benefits

Fluorides in tiny quantities added to municipal
water supplies cut down
ties and decay in small -children, and give them an
added chance of future dental health.
The proposal is relatively inexpensive--at least
compared to the average

It is simple to put uito etiect, and completely sate.
Fluorides are harmless in the amounts (one part

The plan is a reasonable and progressive partial
solution to the problem of dental health.
.
THESE statements are made flatly as facts, and are
based on the best and soundest information
available. v .
Fluoridation of water supplies is not new, and has
been thoroughly tested. The only "conspiracy" to
have it put into effect is on the" part of families who
want the best and healthiest future possible for their
children. It is supported by all but a few doctors and
dentists. The majority see in it a chance to relieve
suffering and eliminate needless expense.
Fluorides, in the proper amounts, are tasteless
and odorless. They will not affect the superb quality
or taste of Medf ord's water. - '
."
MUTRITION.is important to everyone, and too
many sweets are bad for the teeth. But this has
nothing to do with the proposal to add fluorides to
water. The eating habits of a" nation will not be
changed overnight no matter what the benefits.
Fluoridation is proposed simply as an aid to
health. We support it as such. Until the opponents
prove we're wrong (which they have so far failed to
do), or until something better comes along, we will
continue to give the plan our support. E. A.

Pro-Con Possibilities of Reds'
Visit to Great Britain

The visit which Soviet Russia's
two top-ranking leaders are to
pay to Great Britain in April

A. Bulganin and Communist

costly diplomatic failure which
will widen the breach between
the free world and the Commu

It may, conceivably, prove to
be a success and, help to reduce
world tensions.
Prime Minister Anthony Eden

In The Day's
By FRANK JENKINS
In a previous installment- of
this series, I spoke of the burro.
I feel safe in' saying that if an
epidemic as fatal to the donkey
species as is tularemia to rab
bits should carry off all the bur
ros in Mexico it would amount
to a great national calamity in
our neighbor to the south.
As of now, with reservations
as to the future, the burro is per
haps the most useful institution
in tho Republic of Mexico.
IITHAT a burro can carry on
his pipestem-size four legs
and his sturdy back is beyond
all human understanding.
The custom is to load -him
down wi1& whatever product
needs to "be carried from here
to there to the extent of about
his own weight or thereabouts.
After that, his owner; piles on
top and freight, animal and own-,

road to their destination.
Self-Searching by

Been Through It

Washington (U.R) Dwight

his big office chair and said he

erations., He
said he didn't
aspire to be
president of

States. But if

was a soldier.
Lyle c. Wilson
"And another thing," he add
ed with much emphasis, "I'll not
be dragged; into politics to bail
out some political party."
All of that was back in No
vember, 1951, in a little town
outside Paris where was the Su
preme Headquarters of Allied
Powers in .Europe, ... General
Dwight D.. Eisenhower, USA,
commanding. Your correspon
dent visited him there seeking
the. answer to a question almost
as hot as today's.
Scorned "Politicians"
The( general was neither a Re
publican nor a Democrat during
that conversation. And when he
used the word "politicians" it
was with the' inflection with
which Sir Winston Churchill in
wartime used to scorn and scorch
the word,. "Naaaazi."
- It was less, than two months
after that conservation at
SHAPE that the general publicly
enbraced the Republican faith.
The occasion was in ac
knowledgement of the entry by
friends of an Eisenhower slate
in New Hampshire's March,
1952, presidential primary. .
The general then indicated
that he would run for president
if he heard "a clear cut call toi
.political duty." He heard it
clearly enough, and aU of the
foregoing is significant today in
demonstration, of the fact that
the current public yammer about
his plans and Mr. Eisenhower's
own self-searching for a decision
are not new to him.
He's been through all of this
before, although with the, cir
cumstances somewhat altered.
V
abuse on the western Allies.
Britons began to have serious
doubt about the advisability of
letting the plan for the Bulganin
Khrushchev visit stand.
Winston Churchill called the
Asian visit of the Kremlin lead
ers "a surprising spectacle." It
was one, he said, "which her
majesty's government will no
doubt study carefully before
they allow it, with suitable var
iants, to be repeated here." :
Eden, a hard-headed man de
spite the appearance which his
good looks and immaculate dress
give him, decided to go through
with it.. . ..
He even arranged for the vis
itors to be received by Queen
Elizabeth informally, it is true.
But it is now apparent that
Eden does not mean to make the
visit a phony good . will tour
which might turn sour. He in
tends to try to do business.
Lashing In Commons
Foreign Secretary Selwyn
Lloyd gave Khruschev and Bul
ganin a tongue-lashing - in the
House of Commons Monday for
making "false and reckless
charges against Britain.
He said Russia had brought
war closer to Palestine and
stirred up new enmities in Asia.
Nevertheless, he said, Britain
"proposes to do everything it can
to bring about an improvement"
in West-East relations.
"In particular, the Invitation
to Marshal . Bulganin and Mr.
Khrushchev stands," he conclud
ed dramatically to. loud cheers.
- Eden then said that he in
tended to speak as plainly to
Bulganin and Khrushchev
they have in expressing their
views about Britain.
"They, like us, wish for ser-
News
TjWERY, time, you see one of
these ensembles it floors
you.'. The other day I noted an
indistinct mass ; . approaching
down the camino. It turned out
to be a burro and his load. His
load happened to be sugar . cane,.
Two huge bundles of it one on
each side -had been piled on
him. I wouldn't even attempt a
guess as to the weight of this
cargo, but it must have amount
ed to at least 100 kilos. (Down
here, you don't speak in terms
of pounds; you speak of kilos.
A kilo is about 2.2 pounds.) So
the sturdy little rascal- must
have been carrying around 200
pounds of sugar cane.
His owner was perched oh top
of the pile. Mexicans of the peon
class tend to be slight in weight
perhaps because it takes food
to produce avoirdupois, . and
food is never too plentiful in
the lower .echelons of the Mex
ican population. But this . one
was an exception. He was
plump, to say the least.- ,- :-
But the burro was . trotting
along as unconcernedlyVas if he
had no load at aU. The burroo's
business . is to take whatever
comes in stride..
TIE ISN'T lacking, however, in
"personality.
An American friend -dovm
here the roads are fuU of Amer
icans, all of them traveling
about the same route and en
countering each other at some
place more or less every day,
$o one makes friends readily
was telling me about one of
these little characters he i, had
seen the day before.
. The burro, he said,, was stand
ing beside the pavement No
load. Not nibbling at the sparse
grass that grows along the as
phalt. Just standing there. Pre
sumably thinking.
C As the American's car ap
proached, the burro whirled so
that its rear, or offensive, end
faced the intruder. Its tail was
switching. Its ears were laid
back. It looked over its shoulder
with an expression that said as
plainly as speech could have
done: "You and your smelly go
carts, coming down here and
upsetting our peaceful world! If
you dare to touch one hair of
me, I'll kick the stuffing out of
you!" . v. '
npo THAT, I'll add one of my
own.
In the mountains of the state
of Jalisco the other day a pro
cession of glittering American
cars was winding down a curv
ing road. Frpm a barranca at
the side, down a steep and rocky
trail, a pack train was emerg
ing. The burros were heavily
loaded. At the rear end was an
old and gray one, wise with the
wisdom of his years and steeped
in the traditions of Old Mother
Mexico.
He paused. For several min
utes he stood there surveying
this column of Americano mon
sters that derived their susten
ance from an evil-smelling li
quid called gasolino instead of
from the grass and the leaves
and the weeds and the what-not
provided by nature for her chil
dren. ' - - ' -
Then he raised his head, twist
ed his ears and brayed. It was a
derisive bray, with a note ; of
contempt in it. Having thus giv
en vent to his feelings, the old
burro took up again the burden
of his job and moved on after
his fellows down the winding
trail.
Viewed
ious discussions when the meet
ing takes place," Eden said.
This makes it evident that
there has been an exchange be
tween London and Moscow on
the. visit. It is evident,, also, that
Eden means to make a college
try at finding a way out of the
present West-East deadlock.

Why the Debate? - '
To the' Editor: Re the fluoride
argument, pro and otherwise.
For the pros, which includes this
paper, there is a fluoride tooth
paste now on the market which
will keep your teeth looking
like a hound dog's. For those who
oppose, just don't buy this tooth
paste. My gripe is neither for or
against the use of this trace ele
ment. For those who want it, it
is available, and for those who
don't want it, don't brush your
teeth, buy chewing gum instead,
and quit cluttering up the news
paper with suly arguments.
When it comes to the air I
breathe and the water I drink,
just give me plain air and plain
water and Til do my own mix
ing. If this element can. safely
be added to water it stands to
reason it can be added to tooth
paste,, chewing gum, breakfast
foods, etc., in quantities safe for
human consumption and-avail
able to. anyone who desires it.
The argument . has . been . ad
vanced that you see an expert
when you want information on
any specific subject. For those
I suggest going to their doctor
and having him add a sufficient
quanity of fluoride to their daily
diet. Leave the water alone and
save the water department, and
subsequently the taxpayer, some
money. If the water department
will just, continue to deliver pure
water.it will satisfy me.
The doctors and dentists and
this paper no. doubt have sound
reasoning behind their argu
ment for mass medication to in
sure future healthy teeth. Their
reasoning . and purpose is un
questionably sound, leaving only
the method of approach an
issue. Why. should this be a sub
ject for debate and vote?

Something Now
To the Editor: What a dither
we're getting into over our . city
water question. We're jumping
too muchi at conclusions of our
own dreaming up. Fact is, our
greatly appreciated water is too
pure. Like some "holier than
thou" ..parents whose children
thereby suffer for lack of love
and understanding so necessary
to their mental and physical
health. Coming as our city water
does from the snow-pack' and im
mense glass-like basalt-rock res
ervoir system of old-time "Snowy
Butte," it enters our own hy
genie system of pipes and res
ervoirs toemerge at the faucet
in our homes too close by far to
the chemistry term,' H20.
Now, if it could filter down
through .. , the ample bosom of
mother earth, where various
chemicals so necessary to our
well-being could be picked up, it
would be much better for all
concerned. But if such things
are not there, the marvelous se
lective system of our bodies can
not pick them up, then we suf
fer thereby.
Ordinarily, food would .fur
nish such necessary items. But.
our social and economic struc
ture being what we have made
it, vital elements must be re
moved from food grains so that
the product : will survive the
time-lag from processor to con
sumer in edible condition. How
well memory takes me back
when ; our , corn , meal or wheat
flour held too long, became
mouldy and had to be consigned
to the pigs, a- very serious loss
when there was no welfare and
everyone on their own, times
when a sneaked crust of bread
and warm milk from old Spot
was grand eating.
Could be a better way of tooth
decay prevention could be work
ed out through better food con
trols. But that's a long range
Drocedure. We do need some
thing for the immediate now, a
something our health authorities
are striving for and with appar
ent success in some cities.
However, what concerns me
most is our little ones. Is there
anything more distressing to the
parents than a son or daughter s
aching tooth, turning as it does
the child's eating, sleeping and
play to a thing of misery? What's
the alternative? A trip to the
dentist every two or three
months that draws hard on take
home pay, ample though it is
now, but ample too are the den
tist costs. I'll risk my old car
cass a lot to lessen aU this in any
small way. .

Advice to 'Sinners'
To the Editor: It seems to me
that someone from within the
church should reply to the two
recent letters from folk who
sign themselves "sinners."
Perhaps if these . two "sin
ners would consult the Chris
tian's Guidebook, a little further
ttiey would see that "He that do
eth truth cometh to the light
that his deeds and words
may be made : manifest" and
they would be brave enough to
attach their name to their criti
cism. If I were attending a church
where those criticisms were
really justified, I would certain
ly change churches. There are
many, if. not most churches
where- the members give freely
arid gladly of their time, ener
gies, talents and money, in or
der that all people and ' their
children, rich or poor, may have
place to go and pray and sing
and learn, and meet friends and
make friends, and nobody
checks your offerings but leav
es that between you and God.;
Are you sure, friend ' sinner,
that it is the "food out of your
mouth or the shoes off tif your
feet" that you are worrying
about? After over 50 years in
Christian work, I have observed
that most people who do not
want to give to the Lord's work,
are spending much more on. cig
arettes, movies, dances, and oth
er wasteful things than they are
ever asked or expected to give
toward Christian work.
"Consider this: Over $15,000,
000,000 spent for crime in Am
erica in a year, and only one
billion or a little over spent for
all kinds of church, charity and
Christian work! . f
Yes, I would definitely advise
that you send, or rather, take,
your child to Sunday school. But
of course, choose the right Sun
day school.
Mrs. A. Hoffman, .
, Buttee Falls, Ore.'-
To Sinners Nos. 1 fe 2
To the Editor: First of all, let
me point out that it is -plainly
evident that you do not read
your Bibles enough! .
It is not up to man to say who
is or it not a Christian, or what
is or is not a Christian family.
The Bible says ' that "Man
looketh on the outward appear
ance, but the . Lord looketh on
the heart." It also bears out that
we are not to let our alms be
seen of men. The church has no
right, therefore, to audit your
donations, but if you read your
Bible carefully, you'll find it
says to give one-tenth of your
substance to God.
Read the story of the, widow
who was poor. Luke 21:1-4. The
rich men cast their gifts into
the treasury, "and he saw also a
certain poor widow casting in
thither two mites, and he said,
of a, truth I say until you, that
this poor widow hath cast in
more than they all." "For all
these have of their, abundance
cast in unto the offerings of
God: but she of her penury hath
cast in all the living that she
had." ' , ', ,
If a man is a Christian, it is
because he has had a change of
heart toward God and not" be
cause a priest, preacher or dea
con has told him so!
If you'll just look around,
you'll find that right in our city
is a church that does not "past
the hat," take signed pledges for
your tythes or mention money
at every . opportunity. No one
knows what the other one gives,
and yet they are among the
most happy and. blessed of
churchgoers on this earth, and
above all, real born again Chris
tians' Dont' ask Man if you're a
Christian. Just read 1st John the
3rd Chapter, especially the 9th
verse, and also 2nd Corinthians,
5:17.

Two Out of Three Hungry
To the Editor: "Each night
two out of three members of the
human race go to bed hungry."
This statement was made Sept.
9, 1955, by Ezra Benson, secre
tary of agriculture. It seems in
conceivable to most of us that
this can be. We do not know
what hunger means, not , pro
longed hunger.
We pay our government a
million dollars a day just to
store our surplus food. Our gov
ernment's investment in surplus
farm products on Jan. 12 of this
year was close to $8,750,000,000,
the largest oh record. It is esti
mated that this figure may ex
ceed $11 billion by spring.
Efforts are being made to
meet human needs with soma
part of this. The UN Food and
Agriculture ' organization has
distributed some food. Nineteen
