 Thanksgiving (which by the way came this time on Thursday), Ray could think of nothing to be thank full for.

 Dear Radio Editor; Listening in" over the radio waves that are broad
 cast from distant stations is very fascinating, instructive and inspiring pastime. My brother, Scott. has a splendid receiving set. We have caught" nearly 2 hundred different stations, Los Angeles, Cal, being the farthest one away. We often listen in" on the station of the Cuban Tele- phone company's station, PWx, at Havana Cuba.
 Last Wednesday night when listen ing to station WKH, Denver, Col. [ heard this interesting bit of news:
 Birmingham, Ala. We have just heard of the terrible mine disaster at the Dolomite mine No. 3, near Bessemer, owned by the Woodward l Iron company. Nearly 100 men lost their lives in the explosion" I had only heard of this disaster about two hours before and was right here in l town and in this short time the news i had gone all the way to Denver and back. News certainly travels fast.
 One night in the past week I heard the announcer Lf station 1 WBAP, the Fort Worth Star-Tele-
 gram at Fort Worth, Tex, say: It is
 far step from the warm. sunny 1 fields of Texas to the frozen lands of the north, but in spite of this fact
 we are in receipt of letter from a

 Another thing that I have picked up by radio was from the Palmer School of Chiropractic, station woe, at Davenport, Iowa. Where the

Keeps Score Down

outlucked, but not outfought,
washington State lost the first of
two-game series with the University
of California before record crowd
IN the gymnasium Monday night.
The Cougars were continually on
the offensive but could not score.
Time and time again the ball per-
formed all kinds of peculiar antics
nm the ring, but not once did the
elusive sphere drop through in the
first half.
In the second frame, with the
score standing II to against them,
w s C. started style of play that
kept the California guards busy, and
in the final five minutes Sayers and
Rurke each registered a pair OF tall
lies. bringing the final score up to
Is points.
Close Guarding
Both teams showed aggressive
ness and many personal fouls result
ed. Close guarding on the part of
both teams kept down the score.
Many substitutions were made on
both fives, Larkey for California and
Savers and Harrington for w. S. c..
being the only players to last the
entire game.
"Gowdy" Sayers led the Cougars
in scoring with four field goals. Cap
tain Friel played a good floor game
but fell down in his usual scoring
ability, failing to register once in the
entire game Ernie Burke, who re-
placed Sorenson at center, played a
fast game, scoring twice in the last
few minutes of play.

The universal popularity of Studebakey Cars is atested
by the fact that the corporation enjoyed the biggest business
In It's history In the year of 1921.
The sales of Sudebaker Cars were 298 greater than in
1920 Notwithstanding the fact that the total number of
sold of all other makes Except Ford 40% less than
1920 Stated otherwise Studebakers ratio of sales was
l29 and the total of other makes CO. compared with 1920
The number of Sudeboker Cars sold in the year of 1921
in both Greater New York and in the Metropolitan District
exceeded the sales of any other make except Ford
Sdebaker is the worlds largest producer of sxcynder
The only possible explanation of the popularity of
Sudebaker Cars lies in their quality durability and de-
pendabe performance in users hands, Proof that the cars
stand up service with minimum repairs is evidenced by
the fact that sales of Repair Parts in 1921 l25 less
than they 1910, Notwithstanding that $4,000
sold and put operation in 1920 and 1921 Based
the total estimated number of Sudebaker Cars opera
ton in 1921 we sold $1,000 worth of parts per car for re-
pairs from all causes including accidents.

THE RHYMING
OPTIMIST
BY Aline Michaelis-
Strictly Truthful.

Far, for too much deceit I see
in every place l roam; it's truth
and only truth for me until the
cows come home! I'll always say
just what I think, whatever it's
about. and II IL drives some folks
to drink, why, that's their own
lookout. I'll leave the soft and
pleasing speech to gushing youth
and maid, and though I'll call n
peach a peach, I'll call a spade a
spade" Thus spoke our hero,
honest James, when starting his
career, and so he called some
people names they did not often
hear. He did not hesitate TO say
that johnson was a freak; now
johnson looks the other way
when Jimmy starts to speak. He
claimed Miss Smith was pretty
crude in hunting for man, and
all the Smiths began. He said
and a. disgrace; today Miss High
brown shuts the door in candid
Jimmy's face. Said Jim: "I'd
think such folks would yearn to
hear the simple truth" Which
shows he has a lot to learn. the
poor, misguided youth. His
slogan was, "Unvarnished truth"
It was his pride and boast; he
did not know truth hurts, for
sooth, the folks who need IL most.
The truth is ever good, no doubt.
the truth is ever fair; but 1t
won't always do to shout the
whole truth everywhere. Don't
let truths spotlight always glow
on folly, flaw and fault: but tell
each CHEEKY truth you know and
never call halt. Had honest
James been kind at heart, he
could have found some way to
emphasize the pleasant part of all
he had to say. He would have
found some way to reach the
hearts of man and maid, had he
said more about the peach and
less about the spade.

IN EOPLE die from one OF
three causes: accident. in
fectious or communicable
disease, and degenerative changes
in the vital organs. We all
understand accidents and try to
prevent them; we know a great
deal about infectious disease, and
mighty efforts are made to pre-
vent and cure IL; but the pub
lie has much TO learn about the
degenerative diseases.
When one dies of old age he
dies of degenerative disease.
This is natural enough IL one
be seventy-five or older. but IL it
happens at an earlier age there'
has been something radically
wrong about the deceased indI-
vidual's mode of living.
1t is a regrettable act that
there Is a distinct tendency In
this country toward an increase
in the number of deaths from de-
generative diseases at compare
lively early age periods--forty,
fifty and sixty years. A very
large number of persons are
dying from premature degener-
alton of the vital organs at
such age periods; about 80 per
cent of adults, to be exact. The
reason we don't become alarmed
over this situation is simply be-
cause the degeneratiys diseases
kill slowly and quietly, not
spectacularly, like the more fam
iliar messengers of death.
What are the degenerative dis
eases, specifically? They may be
classed roughly as Bright's dis
ease, organic heart disease, can
Ger, arteriosclerosis Tor harden
ing of the blood vessels) and
diabetes.
In the majority OF instances.
these degenerative conditions are
preventable or capable of being
arrested. One difficulty is that
they are not usually detected
early enough; the physician is
not consulted until marked de-
partures from the normal have
taken place.
The conscientious physician is
always on the alert for these
cases, and they are frequently
detected through insurance ex-
aminations, etc.
The moral Is, of course-have
your doctor overhaul" you occa-
sionally; make such an appoint
ment with him at least once a
year.
