The Polo Game.

The High School played better
polo last night than the Regulars
and did much better than last week,
although the score was not in their
favor, being to / in favor of the
Regulars. The school boys show
much better form and play with bet
ter judgment. The score was run up
more by the fortunes of war" than
by the fault of the H. S. players,
there being only one clean goal made
by the Regulars, it being struck by
Pate.
The Regulars played hard game,
but it seemed to be their lucky night,
rather than playing skillful game.
The boys missed the generalship of
Evans, who is laid up for repairs.
Another game will be played Fri
day night to decide which team
carries off the championship honors,
each team now being credited with
one game.

THE COLUMBIA VALLEY BANK.

Today's front page illustration of
the Columbia Valley Bank building
again brings graphically to mind the
days-not so very long ago-when
the uninhabited Wenatchee Valley
was given over to sweeping winds
and its eternal stiffness broken only
by the dismal howl of the wild coy
otes.
Since the new order of things the
"old. strong bank" has ever been
conspicuous. keeping steady pace
with the growth and development
Of the valley. Beginning few years
ago. with small capital, the Colum-
bia Valley Bank today is known and
recognized throughout the state as
one of the strongest and safest in
situations of its kind in the country.
J. J. Browne, with prophetic eye
and unlimited faith in the future
greatness of the Wenatchee valley,
established the bank in the early
days; the rational conservatism and
business acuem of his son, Guy c..
Browne, the present manager, have
brought it to it's present high state
of prosperity and solidity, and made
it one of the prides of our county.
From time to time, as increasing
business demanded. the canifa1iz-
alton Of the concern has been in
creased, until today the one Numbered
thousand dollar mark has been
reached.

.jt causaas On exeeseivs and lnjprteue
Strain on the System.
Every one knows that the ascent Of
a staircase IS more fatiguing than ordi-
nary walking. In walking progression
Is effected by a succession OF lifts, IN
clinations and swings. -
In starting the body. Is lifted. for ex-
ample, by the levers Of the right foot
and is inclined forward. The left foot
being then raised from the ground, the
leg swings forward and is carried by
its momentum beyond the right foot.
The levers of the left foot now lift
the body again, and the right leg
swings forward, and so the body oscil-
lates along on pair Of penduiums.
Short pendulums vibrate more quickly
than long ones, and therefore short
legged people step quicker than long
legged people, though with no more
sense Of exertion.
In going upstairs the mechanism Of
progression is of course the same, but
the lifting action, which is the real
force consuming part of the process. is
now greatly increased.
Instead of being just sufficient to ad
NIT of the free swing of the pendulum
foot it must be so great as to project
the body up at each step a distance
equal to the height of the stair.
Running upstairs is thus an excess
i've strain upon the constitution, but
where does this strain fall? The levers
of motion are moved Immediately by
the muscles, but the muscles cannot
act of themselves.
Their contractiOns and relaxations
take place cnly under stimulus. They
are all connected by lines OF force, call
ed nerves, with the nervous centers,
and these are the sources of muscular
stimulation.
Not that the nerve force of the brain
is converted into the mechanical move
nent of progression, but nerve force is
constantly drawn upon to maintain
the action Of the muscles, and this
draft is always greatest where there is
a sense of exertion.
When bodily vigor is high, the evil
result Of running upstairs may not be
decidedly felt, but where there is de-
bility Of any Of the processes this
strain cannot fail to tell in some form
or other with injurious effect.-St.
Louis Republic.

cheaper he moves his crops.
Were 1t not for country residents,
there would he no necessity for
country roads.
1t is hence but natural that the
country resident should be most deep
ly interested In any movement for
the betterment of country roads. In
the columns of yesterdays World ap-
peared a news story of the great sue
cess of OILED ROADS,. WHEREVER
adopted. The question is about to
be brought before our. county COM
missioners, SHALL WE USE OIL
ON OUR ROADS?"
Oiled roads are beyond the exper-
mental stage.
Hundreds of miles of roadway
with oiled surface is in use in various
parts of the world, and we see no
reason why this method of road i'm
provement should not be adopted on
our country highways. Not only
does the application of oil effectively
allay dust, but if properly~attended
to, a smooth, resilient, asphaltum-
like surface is created, impervious to
water and wonderfully durable.
The cost is slight.
And this form of roadway is al
ways a success. 5000.
But since seeing is believing, we
suggest that the municipality oil one
of two blocks of the city streets, as
an experiment, that the people may
see what an oiled road is like, and
how it bears up under the wear and
tear of traffic.
We ourselves are not in doubt. We
have seen oiled streets in use in
Honolulu, Shanghai, and various Cal
ifornia towns, and known what a
good thing they are proven to be.

There was . time, centuries since,
Of course. whom the learned men Of
the world really taught that the world
was q square, not merely nat but
that it was a cube. The primitive &C.
ographers Of Egypt, Assyria and China
all taught that the world was a
square plane" evidence Of which may
be found on thousands Of ancient mon
uments in the countries mentioned, as
well as in their ancient manuscripts,
upon their inscribed tablets of clay and
other early literary remains. One Of
the most curious discoveries ever made
In Central America concerning Toltec
beliefs, symbols, etc, is that they also
had similar idea concerning the form
Of what we now speak Of as the
globe" A writer on the discoveries
made among the monumental ruins Of
that country says, "They (meaning the
Peruvians, Toltecs and Quiches) be-
neve the world to be cube, suspended
from the heavens by cords Of gold fas-
tened to each Of its corners"

MEDICAL EDUCATION AND PRACTICE,
The layman whose assortment OF all
ments sustains the medical profession
may be pardoned for discussing the
need of better educational and prac-
teal equipment for physicians, in view
of the assertion made by DR.. w. T.
Means, chairman of the judicial coun-
ell of the Association of American
Medical Colleges, that of the 1000
doctors graduated annually from our
medical colleges at least 5000 are ut
terly incompetent to practice. At a
conference of the council just held in
Chicago DR.. Means made an elaborate
report, buttressed by statistics, in
which appears this statement:
The average man who qualities as med
zeal practitioner is deficient In knowledge
OF bacteriology, chemistry, physiology,
anatomy doubt II he could make a
laboratory test for typhoid fever.
Astonishing and alarming as DIR.
Means report may appear on the sur
face, the fact remains that a remark
able advance in the methods and re-
quirements of medical education has
been made in the last few years and
the report itself is an assuring evil
dence that American medical colleges
are adopting more and more stringent
regulations to eliminate the incompe-
tent and illiterate practitioner Only
few years ago the country was over
supplied with alleged medical colleges
that turned loose two or three classes
of so-called physicians each year to
practice upon the country. Many
states have passed laws making the
operation of such institutions impos-
sible and the entire tendency lie to
lessen the facilities of fake institutions
for flooding the country with quacks
and charlatans.
The American Medical association IL
now striving to make 1t impossible for
a student to receive a diploma from a
medical college until he has received
a collegiate training or a course OF
study that will give him the mental
training and discipline so essential 10
success in medical practice. It is pro-
posed to lengthen the minimum course
OF study and to include in It other cuI-
tural work that will equip the gradu-
| ate with an intellectual authority OBJ
tainable only after broad schooling.
The public will approve the efforts
OF she medical college faculties in thus
insisting upon more thorough prepa-
ration by aspiring medical students.
The colleges. the medical profession
and the public will all profit by any
plan that will raise the standard OF
the medical graduate. The country
