Weather The greatest sudden changes of temperature in this country take place in New York City. So states a New Englander. He may be right. Still. New Eng enders are not in a very good position to boast of an even climate. There are some terrific switches in the weather up that way, too. It is a matter of record that on Dec. 31, 1932, the temp erature in Vermont rose from 35 to 60. That night it dropped from 60 to zero which was the temperature on the next day, Jan. 1, 1933. Says She "So another of your feminine subscribers gives out with a series of nasty remarks regard ing Scorpio women," writes a Baltimorean. "Just one more hy sterical outburst from an en vious woman. Probably one of those frustrated Virgos, al ways trying to get a man and getting nowhere. . Or. perhaps cne of the many flat-chested Tieeans who try In vain with inflated bras to look like a Scorpio. Or a nasty, overdress ed Libia who has lost a man to some magnetic and magni- f.rpntlv formed Scorpio. But why go on? The Scorpio gals are madly envied by all those who had the misfortune to be born under other signs. Still, instead of always criticizing us Scorpios. why don't these other female? devote the time to a study of self-improvement?"

Typographical Error Made in OLCC Story Due to a typographical error in the Mail Tribune yesterday, part of the testimony in the OLCC hearings was inaccurately reported. The error, concerning testi mony Tuesday by Walter D. Nunley, former district attorney, was corrected in more than half of the press run, but not in the rest. The paragraph in question should have read as follows: "Nunley testified he had called the matter to the atten tion of the commission as an 'investigative lead.' He said he had received some information concerning Schempp's solicita tions from Aubrey Miles, pro prietor of the Greyhound Tav ern in Ashland. Miles testified he had refused to give money to Schempp when Schempp con tacted him and asked for a con tribution for Reeder's cam paign."

I want to bring my brother and my friend to gether again Enda B. Out of little quar rels come bigger ones. e Angela R. My best friend and my brother recently broke up their engagement, which had lasted only three months. I have been very unhappy about this because I am sure they are ideally suited and this breakup is a great mistake. It all happened over a silly quarrel and my brother lost his temper and yelled at Edna. She flung back his ring. The whole thing was so unlike both of them. Ben has a wonderful disposition as a rule and I've never known him to get angry about any thing so trivial. Edna, too, has always been the easygoing type. My brother has been heart broken about the thing and has asked me to help him win Edna back. She is such a fine girl, 1 don't see how she can hold a grudge like this. Edna B. I'm not holding a grudge. I just feel I could not live with a man who yelled at me on the slightest provocation. If he does this before we are even married, what will happen afterwards? Angela talks of the whole thing as a "lovers' spat," but I know those "spats." I was en gaged once before and out of the little quarrels came bigger one. My parents never got along very well and I don't in tend to let myself in for a life like that. Harmony in marriage is everything. I am very fond of Angela and Ben and their parents and 1 al ways will be. I would like to continue being friends with all of them, but marriage is too im portant to risk. I won t become engaged again until I am 100 per cent sure that I can get along with the man. The Council: There is usually little a third party can do to patch up a broken engagement and Angela appears to be taking a little too much on herself. It is really up to Ben to try to mend this affair by himself. Edna would do well, however, to investigate her own attitudes. The fact that she has a fona- ness for this entire family sneaks in favor of the possi bility- of a happy marriage be tween herself and Ben. Edna blames Ben for "yelling" and displaying temper toward her. Yet she threw back her ring in a spirit of temper. Ap- Darently it took two to cause the breakup and it probably took, two to make the original ouarrel. Since Edna has already had More Than 3,000 Dogs Vaccinated in Deschutes Portland 'iU.R) More than 3,000 dogs were .vaccinated dur- inir the first four days of an emergencv anti-rabies campaign being conducted throughout Deschutes county, the State Board of Health said today. The mass vaccination program was touched off last week fol lowing a laboratory report of rabies in a cat which had scratched one child and bitten another last Christmas eve.

The fact that Edna's parents "never got along very well" undoubtedly has a lot to do with it.-Edna is very likely repeating the pattern set by her parents' married life. The disharmony in her own home has probably also given her a fear of marriage and she uses quarrels as a means of back ing out. Nevertheless, Edna has at the same time a great desire to be married or she would not keep getting engaged. She ought to give herself some thinking time and try to see what makes her engagement go wrong. If she can't analyze her own difficul ties satisfactorily, she may find it worthwhile to discuss the whole thing with a qualified older person the family phy sician, a marriage counselor or psychiatrist.

Four Questioned in Abduction of Girl Portland U.R) Police . today questioned four young men in connection with the abduction and robbing of a 17-year-old girl last night. Patricia H. Turner told police that a car with four occupants followed her when she left her job . at St. Vincents hospital about 9 p.m. She said one man asked her if she wanted a ride. Finally, she said, one of the oc cupants got out, clamped a hand over her mouth and dragged her into the vehicle. She said she was constantly threatened and that one man scratched her upper lip with a knife. A citizen noticed her struggles and followed the car, obtaining the license number before he lost sight of the vehicle. Miss Turner said she was dri ven east of here and robbed of $18 and then brought back to Portland where she was re leased. Detective Sgt. Dan Mitola said the four young men were picked up later. Police withheld their names until they finished ques tioning them.

Assume Leadership Mrs. Warren McMinimmee, of the state library board, reported that the board will assume lead ership in the promotion of the legislation which it is sponsor ing. Members of the library de velopment committee will take the responsibility of stimulating action at local levels, by the people who have expressed a need for rural library service and will benefit directly from it. Plans were announced by Mrs. Mabel E. Baker, of the Oregon State library, for the purchase of two bookmobiles to be bought and stocked by the state library and routed throughout the state a demonstration of mobile rural library service. A tentative schedule provides for the use of the bookmobile in Josephine county in late April and in Jackson county during the fourth week of April and the first week of May. Plans for the joint use of a bookmobile either by Ashland Public library and the Jackson County library or by Jackson and Josephine counties together are under consideration if state and federal funds ecome avail able. Jackson county librarians who attended the Salem meeting were the Misses Cora Mason and Helen Webster. Board Recommends Teacher Wage Boost Rural school board members of Jackson county Tuesday night agreed to recommend the Jack son County Rural School board grant a $200 annual across-the- board salary increase for the county's rural teachers. The proposed increase would be in addition to the salary raises already assured for teachers by the county rural board. Also proposed at the meeting was a $350 to $400 increase for teachers and superintendents. This was discarded by a formal vote as was a $100 a year in crease proposal. The $200 annual raise was approved by a 9-4 vote. Superintendents would not be included in this proposed raise.
