Usually, c h 1 1 dren get I . ; I over this dlffl- rVt - I c u 1 1 y, and oniy r a r e i y have I seen an adult with it. I remember a family In which three fine - looking sisters kept or ai vaV.K weii lug me bed until they were nearly 20. I remember one such girl who said she gave it up during Lent. I was just reading a paper by Bertil Hallgren, of Stockholm, who says that a census taken in Sweden show ed that 12 per cent of their boys and 7 per cent of their girls are bed-wetters. As I have said in this col umn, many studies have shown that usually the child who wets the bed has some bed wetting relatives, and GRIFFIN GREEK AREA Owner Leaving Town V Acre Excellent Well Irrigation Water Available 3 Bedrooms 1 Vi Baths Wall to Wall Carpet Property Well Kept $13,500 $1,800 DOWN SP 3-4415 BAY Builders Supply 727 W.

He may have tics or grimacing contractions of his facial muscles, and he or some of his near relatives may stutter. As many a moth er says of her bed-wetting child, he has stuttering mus cles all over him. Bronchiectasis I feel I must keep mention ing bronchiectasis because so many persons write, asking what it is, and can anything be done for it. The word means a dilation of some of the bronchi, or the tubes that carry air into and out of the lungs. Every so often the di lated tubes will become in fected, so that they will con tain some pus. Then the pa tient will have fever and per haps a patch of broncho-pneumonia. Fortunately, today, we doctors have antibiotics which will often clear up the infec tion. The patient should have studies made by an expert lung specialist who will de cide whether or not it would be wise to remove, surgically, the lobe of the lung which is most seriously infected. Many people ask if they should go to a dry equable climate, perhaps in our South west country. This could help Often it helps most when a heavy smoker throws away his cigarettes.

Watkins The Sand Flea Helps Keep Beaches Clean There's an insect named aft er the flea that really isn't. But there is a decided resem blance in appearance if not in size. That is the so-called beach flea or sandhopper. This little crustacean of the sandy beach resembles the in sect flea in many ways. It has an oval body, large eyes, legs, antennae, and general body outline suggestive of the real flea. The size, of course, is quite different. The sand flea is about an inch long, and about as large around as an olive. The rear legs, elongated like that of the grasshopper, are flayed out at the ends into tiny oars that make swim ming possible for the little fellow. Running, Pushing Legs The other legs are running legs as well as pushing limbs to drive the "flea" down into the wet sand. The body being very smooth and shiny makes quick passage down into the sand an easy trick. Sometimes the sand flea stops digging as' soon as the head is buried. The sand flea- must wonder why he is discovered. If he only realized it, his tail, equipped with a group of stiff spines, sticks out of the sand like a. channel marker. Any bird, crab or fish on a hunt for food knows just where the little guy is hiding. His is a very short life, but appar ently a very happy one. Like his cousins the crabs, the sand flea is very active and lives right at the edge of the sea. When a wave runs back from the beach, a tell-tale bubble will shine for a moment, and burst with an unheard "plop." This marks the hiding place of a sand flea. Retiring Nature The sand flea is really of a very retiring nature. Funny, too, for he lives in an en vironment that is thickly pop ulated with many forms of beach life. In the sand where he lives are many worms, crabs, mollusks and many oth ers, all mixed together in a hodge-podge of beings, all try ing to live, feed and recreate their kind in endless proces sion. In this bio-mass of life the sand flea resides in col onies, separated one from an other by a cushion of sand all alone, yet not alone-like the man in the rooming house, alone but knowing there are others close by. The sand flea acts as one of Nature's active scavengers, in helping to keep the beaches clean. In his way, too, he supplies himself to feed other aquatic animals. Nature gave the sand flea a great amount of energy. Too bad he has to spend his life within the confinement of wet sand. It's like keeping an ac robat locked up in a tele phone booth.

Peters, Rogue River police and fire chief, gave notice to the mayor and council that he will resign his positions effective July 27.

The new branch, which took 21 months to build, is the pride of the Portland Zoo Railway, Oregon's unique rail road that's run for fun. It's the only all-new mountain passenger line built in the na tion in recent years, and also boasts the heaviest travel per capita mile. Thousands are jamming the busy trains every week. The mountain line connects the city's new zoological gar dens with Washington park by 1.4 miles of rugged right- of-way. The trains corkscrew amid thick timber across some awesome terrain, high above the city. They grind up 3.5 and 4 per cent grades while passengers gaze into dark ravines. They hurdle canyons and plunge through deep cuts. Two Years of Labor Nearly two years of engi neering and labor went into this mountain branch. Done commercially, it would have cost 5100,000.

The home, estimated to be worth about $50,000, will be located at 404 Niantic St. Much of the labor and mate rials have been pledged by local businessmen and legion naires, the commander said. Brittsan also announced that he has appointed Jen nings Pierce, Medford, as con vention chairman of the 1981 legion convention. The convention will be held in July next year and it is hoped that the new legion home will be ready by that time. Pierce has played a leading role in many local civic and promotional activities as both coordinator and master of cer emonies. Pierce joined the legion in 1919, but has been inactive in legion programs until he joined the Medford post this year, Brittsan said.

Ex- Fifth Car Reported Taken in Ashland Ashland-Police Chief Herb Hays said Friday that almost as many cars have been taken during the past two weeks in Ashland as usually are stolen in a year. Five automobiles have been stolen here during the past fortnight, Hays said, adding that the annual total usually is only about six or seven. Three of the cars taken re cently have been recovered within the city limits. The most recent auto theft occurred about 1 a.m. Thurs day when a new sedan was taken from Selby Chevrolet company, 100 East Main st. Hays said the gate at the Selby lot had been lifted off its hinges, and that two li cense plates had been, taken. The office also was entered, but only small change was stolen, he said. A man believed to be about 20 years of age was seen driving the car shortly after the theft. Hays said. The youth stopped at a service station, but drove away with out paying the bill.

This Is but the latest and most dramatic achievement of the Zooline railroad system, started more than three years ago. It's no toy or miniature rail road, either, such as are nor mally seen in parks and zoos. This one uses regulation nar row gauge equipment, some of It hand-me-downs from abandoned Northwest logging lines. Its powerful locomo tives weigh upwards to 1.500 pounds, its cars are large enough so the grownups find they can ride comfortably. Two Miles of Track The railroad boasts two miles of opcratable track, and is still building. It has 20 pieces of rolling stock making up into five trains. In addition to the two mnln trains, there are a circus train, fire train, work train, two switch engines and a VIP Tooncrvlllc trolley car. The railroad also has high trestles, a black tunnel, colorful sta tions, radio control, automatic signals and gates, roundhouse, railroad yard, spurs, sidings, safety devices and all else needed by any self-respecting railroad.
