I had no Idea that I had been living in such primitive aqua' lor until I came across a few :tems in this slick paper teacher- of-the-peopie. I found out, for one thing, that our present kitchen doesn't sing with Joy. At least the editors in a so-the-people-shall-know attitude made it Intensely clear that your kitchen should carry with it aa a theme the mainstream of life and that the aforementioned life should be one of gaiety and relaxed en joyment. All colors and panels and fancy louvres to hide the automa tic equipment. Somehow I find it hard, on look ing at the beautiful color pictures of these creations, to imagine any one mashing potatoes in one of them, or cooking up a mess of liver and onions. They seem to lend themselves almost exclusively to the preparation of dainty cheese snacks and a suitable spread. Al ways pretty much on the frothy side. I am beginning to wonder what ever becume of the old fashioned kitchen that was full of cast iron kettles. Iron akllleta as black as the middle of a chimney, coffee pots that made coffee by the nlmple process of boiling water and the ever-present breadbojt? I guess I'm just living In the past, maybe. I also found that you should have two refrigerators, one for daily use and one for seldom-used HAL BOYLE NEW YORK Wl Are you auf faring from "civilization sickness?" You probably are If you find your aelt getting iatigued without reas on, irritated over trifles, and un justifiably critical of yourself, your friends and membera of your own family. Every culture develops its own typical ailments. The typical ail ment of America today Is tension and strain, a condition which aome theorists believe is the main cause of our growing croo of ulcers. heart attacks, divorces, and other cmeases. But what causes the tension? It Isn t the difficulty in solving man's age-old problems of food, clothing and shelter. It really Isn't over work either, in my opinion, nor uie result of too much ambition. The average man isn't overly ambitious. And never in history be fore naa he been able to achieve ao comfortable an existence with so little labor. ' Then what makes him so weary and cross, so upset and impatient, ao afflicted, with gray nameless ail ments that putzle his doctor be cause the. doctor probably has them too. and doesn't know what to call them? . I think that our "civilisation alckness" is no more than the pen alty of feeling enrile.vily crowded. We are like a man with a 40-Inch waist who Insists on wearing a 311 inch belt. No wonder we are un happy, bilious In temper, and see epots in frcnt of our eyes. They aren't spots they're people. Our population has leaped from 15 million in 1900 to 165 million in a 55-ycnr period In which mil lions also havo fled the old mon otony of farm lite lor the Islso glamor of the teeming cities. But much of our crowdedness Is unnecessary. It results from nn thing: Everybody wants to do the aama thing at the same time. Thev all want to work what u.-ed to be ealiad bankers' hours fl to S- thev all want to play on the same weekend days. Whatever a man tried to do he Hilda himself hemmed In by the growing nerd.

The solution Is as simple as It Is inexplicable Uial It already hasn't been applied: Break up the ancient psltarn by which men work at the same lime, play at the same lime.

I might add that you should also have an income that runs into eight figures and the good fortune to possess a cook and a scullery maid. Don't see how my wife and I have managed to make out, sneak ing home to our one stove, one refrigerator kitchen and furtively snatching at such commonplaces as broiled hamburgers and roast oone on an old fashioned rotlsrerle and subsisting on home made bread that atlll requires pretty extensive kneading and pulling around. I can't seem to find a place for any of these things In the new kitchens. Much leas' the inspiration for any thing aa humble as meat, potatoes and gravy. I guess I Just don't belong In this pre-pack age. . Now that there is a zing of Fall in the air It is about time for the male population to get together and formulate some kind of an excuse to get out of cleaning the basement this winter. We put it off all sum mer on the grounds that we were better occupied outside and It would wait until the cold and snowy days of winter. Now that time is close upon uk and it would behoove us to get in there and get a good story dreamed up before headquar ters suddenly insists that tne nether regions of the homestead be awamped out. hour period utilising half Us pres ent stall?

With more people working on Saturday and Sunday, and more of them taking their days oil in the middle ol the week, the week end pies Jure on pleasure resorts would automatically lessen. It shouldn't be too hard to adjust to: A church can be Just as inspiring on Thursday aa on Sunday. So can a goli course or a beach. All It lakes to give Americans a more leisurely, unhurried, un- orowded lile and. cut down on the toll of the "civilisation sick ness" is to break with a few outmoded traditions. How soon we will do It I don't know. But I do know one Ihlng: The only sure way a man can keep a good digestion and a se rene disposition today is to run away from home and become hermit.

Our learned savants have diligently studied In hope that they might obtain some indication of what the probable future of agricultural de velopment will be as well as to attempt to prophesy the condition of the future generations. Conse quently it has been necessary to study trie land area in detail to answer -the vital questions: How much land is there? What kind ol land is it? What c4n be done with it? How soon, if ever, as the Malthusian8 declare, ia agri cultural production going to reach the saturation point? It might be profitable for us to likewise browse a bit into this rather restricted field and see what facta have been brought to light upon the subject. Perhaps it might be well to review the factors that are essential to a pro ductive agriculture. It doea not take much of scientific thought to see that productive agriculture Is dependent upon topography of the land, temperature, rainfall, and the fertility of the soil. Land must not be too stony or hilly; it must have sufficient and not too much ralnlall, or, be capable ol being irrigated. The water table must not be too high or loo low. The land must not be too sandy or con tain too much clay. Infertility, how ever. Is a relative term, what is generally meant when land is spoken of as being "infertile" is that under existing conditions the land cannot be economically cult! vated. Almost any land that is not practically a rock pile or not too ateep, can be utilized by agrl culture: assuming water and temperature conditions are lavor- nble, such land can be made to produce abundantly although not necessarily proiitably. The amount and Intensity of sunlight Is a factor entirely aside from heat which is supplied. The growing season must be such that an aggregate number of units of heat above a certain maximum are sufficient to maintain a par ticular crop. That Is to say, if the minimum temperature at which wheat will grow is 40 de crees Fahrenheit, the aggregate number of heat unlta nbove that temperature must be sufficient to mature that plant. Because ol the length of the day and other lac- tors, tills period may be two months, or, 11 may be six months. The length of the day as well as the growing season may be an Important Inctor. The length ol the growing season thorcforc Is not the only consideration. Na turally the aggregate amount ol heat units necessary for the sue- cessful growth of plants will vary with the kind of plant, different, let us say, wllh corn than with wheat. Of course a most vital faotor In Ihe subjeel of food production in Ihe world is the elevation ol Ihe land. Most of the people ol the world live below the 1.000 loot contour above the level ol the sea. Most ol the great cities are near the level ol the sea. the exceptions are usually dependent upon mining, manufacturing, or lumbering rather than upon ag riculture. Keeping the act in mind Hint most of the people ol the world live below the 1.000 loot ele vation, it Is Indeed interesting to note tint the average mean height ol Ihe land masses ol the world 3,300 leet above sea level. In other words, hall of the land area ol the world lies above the 3.300 loot level whereas the world's pop ulation lives below 1,000 feet. Tills fnct is Indeed an inlcrestuig situa tion to consider in Ihe light ol anyone attempting to Dredict the future of man's development in the world. than one cold 8 winter- SjJ breaking up Counhlni eases.

By the term "lowlands It usually means the lands from the level of the sea, upwards to the 600 foot contour. The "up lands" range from the 600 foot elevation upward to the 2,000 foot, contour; while, the term "high-j lands" embrace the vast broad; land area that lies at the 2,000 ; loot elevation and above to the very summit, of our highest moun- tain peaks. : There Ere three very obvious reasons why most of the people live below the l.OOO foot elevation mark and the largest cities are located near the level of the sea. These reasons are basically the factors of climate, food supply and the problem of vertical lift. Cli mate of course is the first of these basic factors, in all due respect to our wonderful Klamath Basin climate it must be said that in general there Is comparatively lit tle cultivated land above the 1,000 foot elevation In the tem perate zone. This fact Is due to the shorter season of growth that generally is present above 1,000 teet and the great danger from frost. However, there are excep tions to this generalized statement for there are large sections of the world above 1.000 feet which can be made productive so that the climate difference due to altitude Is not necessarily sufficient to ac count wholely for the comparative ly small area of land under culti vation and the smalt population to be found at a higher elevation. The second fundamental prob lem of human populations Is that of food supply and the food sup ply of the sea is an asset to the concentration of people' in the low lands especially to the great lnsul nr tinMons like Great Britain or Ja pan but this Is a subject for an other discussion.

Although many women send let ters - to this writer asking some questions about the menopause or change of hie there are undoubt edly f a higher proportion who pass through this normal stage of life without serious difficulty Published estimates of those women who have unpleasant symp toms vary but there are probably only about 15 out of 100 who have enough trouble from the meno pause to require treatment. The unpleasant sensation which is complained of most frequently goes under the' name of "hot flashes." Apparently, this, unlike other symptoms associated with the change M life such as fa tigue, headache, dizziness, nerv ousness and irritability is detin- ltely the result of lessened secre tion of female sex hormones (es trogens) from the ovaries. All these complaints, however, may be worsened by emotional stress. in many cases the symptoms are not severe enough to require treatment. When treatment is needed there are, several prepa rations available now which can be given by mouth and which nave fail ly long actions. Before givin them, however, the iir .si step is to make sure that disease is absent. If there is no disease the wom an going through the change should recognize that she has noth ing to worry about and that her symptoms will subside eventually even without treatment. Pehaps what bothers more women during the menopause than anything else are emotional changes. One, for example, wrote that she was moody, gets exceedingly blue, and cries easily. Tins again is not unusual, but is perhaps more often an exaggeration ot per sonality qualities already present than it is the result of lessened hormone production in the ovaries. Another thing which many wom en are greatly concerned about Is the possibility of conception dur ing the latter stages of the meno pause. One docs not want to make too strong a statement on this since mpny pregnancies have occurred as late as 5U or even. T5 years of age. But there is believed to be comparatively blight chance of conceiving past the age of 50 when a year or more has elapsed since the last period. Probably the most Important thing tor women in the menopause! to do even including those who need hormone treatment is to ad just their mental outlook. Both mental and physical activ ity (reasonably suited to the age and physical condition of the worn un are helpful und take the mind off unnecessary worry over what is only a temporary situation. All .n all. the menopause does not present much of a problem to the majority of women. For those in whom it does, relief can be brought in most instances by suitable treatment with hor mones and by the woman herself adopting a sensible mental atti: lude.

JAMES MARLOW By DON WHITEHEAD WASHINGTON UP) A man's heart beat stutters momentarily and in those fleeting moments a whole political world is shaken to its foundations. That is what happened when : President Eisenhower suffered a j heart attack early Saturday at Denver. First there was the stunning shock of the news hitting the capi tal with all its implications. But even in the outpouring of sympathy and prayers for the president's recovery, there was the realization that nothing in politics was quite the same as it had been before those fateful hours between mid night and dawn two days ago. There was the reluctant accept ance by Republicans of the prob ability most of them had refused to admit before that Eisenhower will not be the GOP presidential candidate next year. And there was the recognition by Ihe Democrats that fate, even in an unwelcome - manner, had placed them suddenly in a far stronger positiori to challenge the Republicans for control of the White House in the 1956 elections. Politics being what they are. both side.s must now look at the coming campaign trom radically altered points of view. And this much ot least is apparent: The Republicans x no longer can count on Eisenhower as a candi date. Neither are they in a position THE BIG NEW 1958 HUH i Xfff"""" ' Mnamun.u.s.yujm. fr'M'a'X'i''.'CT'-gijaiiiiaLjafajjajaj in his wheat field in Langcll to harvest 70 bushels to the to urpe him to run again even It the President should recover com pletely from this attack. To do so would put the GOP -chiefs in the awkward position of asking Eisen hower to undertake a strenuous j campaign which conceivably miehti place more strain on his heart than' it could stand. I Up to this point the Republican j chiefs have made all their cam-! prtign plans on the assumption that I Eisenhower would run. Now these j plans must be recast in recognition j of the alternative thut he will no:t be available. And there is the! likelihood the convention which1 was to have nominated Eisenhower without opposition will be a battle ground. At the moment,' Vice President Richard M. Nixon appears to be in the strongest position to bid for ihe nomination if Eisenhower doesn't run. Nixon Is reported by OOP leaders to be highly popular with party 'organization - men throughout the country. But no one claims Nixon can come close to matching Eisenhower's tremendous popularity and vote-getting appeal, or that he might be nominated without a challenge. As for the Democrats, the things they have feared most in looking ! toward the iyo6 campaign have ibeen Eisenhower's popularity and the thought he would run again. Suddenly there is the strong chance that these great Republican assets cannot be turned, against them again. MERCUR Yon dispIayTKUR., SEPT. 29 i ..sXV - on Crystal Springs Road Friday Bruce Biossat Young Governor Ribicoff of Con necticut, as a Democrat, naturally counts heavily on labor for politi cal support. Recently he risked that backing by criticizing the or ganizing tactics of certain labor leaders in his state. Speaking at an AFL meeting, he objected to CIO pamphleteering which declared that the union or ganization would "connive, persist, annoy, anything to get what you have a right to have." The able governor said flatly he would fire outright anyone caught "conniving or annoying" in any department of his state govern ment to1 assist the CIO in its ef lorts. One would imagine the AFL might find it possible to support his. protest against this question able language. But the federation instead sent apologies to the CIO because Ribicoff had spoken from its platform. We are talking here about Just one organizing pamphlet in one campaign. ButHhere is an import ant principle involved, as Ribicoff saw. What the CIO pamphlet says Is that the end justifies the means. So long as the cause is just lair wages, hours, 'working condi tions then "anything" may be done to advance that cause. It is a peculiar kind of thinking that would lend sanctity to con niving, annoying or any other dub ious tactics simply because the de clared goal is good. Labor leaders too often havu been guilty o! this kind of think iniv since they came to great power in this country, they have indulstd in many excesses in the name of the "people." only a part of whom they in fact represent. When called to account, these leaders self-righteously decline to acknowledge any error or trans grcssion. Wrapped in the protect tive ga rmcnt of the "people's" cause, they ask instead that lawa which govern others not be ap plied to them. RibicoFf Js to be commended for speaking- but for principle, even while a guest in labor's own house. The labor leaders' reply seemed enly to reaffirm their original po fititiii that the end justifies the means. Dr. R. T. Lindley OPTOMETRIST 510 Med. Dent. Bldg. Ph. 4215 .
