Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON -

MOST of us said farewell to 1881 with no regrets,
AVA although we may welcome 1882 with trepida-
For 1881 was not kind to us we saw the vixen
year, with its low levels for stocks and its harvests
OF wheat and cotton gone begging for a buyer. A
bad, laundering, berserk year, fit only for cursng
Yet III spite of all this the last twelve months have
worked great change in the American SOUL
For the nrSt time IN many decades we are aware
OF something deep within the national consciousness
that is our heritage, the quality that makes us what
we are-AmericanS, irtangibly different from other
beings who are English, German, French. And this
knowledge has been born not of our prosperity but
of our adversely.
Nineteen thirty-one took from us the residue Of
SmugneSs No longer do we shout, Behold See
what great and rich ones are! UnaSSailable!
Favored of heaven!"
THE chest thumpings are heard no longer. Jazz
u is dead We are ourselves again. people ready
to meet and overcome Affections. We know at last
that we have followed after strange gods, and that
the worship of the golden calf will leave WANDER
ing in an endless wilderness
Thus 1881 has been in truth kindly and benevo-
lent year. With tremendous swat is has shaken
us out of our Silken lethargy and made us renem-
Der long forgotten things. That vigilance is the
price OF wel-being. that moderation is the father
Of all decencies that bgness is not always excellence
Millions Of us have learned to be grateful again
for simple blessings Jobs warming fires food. There
has been rekindled within a faint desire for those
things that always have spelled content for the COM
mon man-home, work and time for laughter love
and dreaming
Nineteen thirty-one viii so down in history as the
American renaissance Of common sense.

Low Blood Pressure Brings Weakness

For instance, following influenza
people are frequently weak, per-
spare freely on exertion, and appear
weary, depressed and tired without
any apparent cause.
When the infection is cleared up
and the appetite returns, when the
person begins to resume his daily
physical activities, the pressure may
rise promptly.
A similar condition may develop
following. any long continued infec-
ton. and the method of taking care
of the condition is obvious. Rest is
necessary.
If every one who had a severe
cold, even without a fever, would
stay in bed in the acute stage and
if every person who had a fever
'wouId stay in bed from one to three
'<iays after the temperature became
normal, a vast amount of degenera-
tive disease, of low blood pressure,
and Of general weakness would be
avoided.
There are certain diseases which
attack the glands of internal secre-

ton which are concerned with keep
ing the blood pressure normal
through maintaining proper elias
ITCHY in the blood vessels.
Obviously any disease affecting
these glands and interfering with
their function may bring about low
blood pressure.
Since the blood pressure is a re-
Election of the power of the heart
to push the blood through the ar
teries and veins and of the condi-
ton of the blood vessels through
which the blood passes, any factor
that greatly influences these two
basic features of the circulation may
bring about either a high or low
blood pressure.
DR.. Wingate M. Johnson, after a
survey of the available knowledge,
feels that low blood pressure favors
long life, but that it is not likely to
be associated with physical vigor.
There is a tendency to encounter
low blood pressure more frequently
than high ones.

and q, group of japanese soldiers.
At this distance it is rather fruitless
to go too deeply into the merits of
the quarrel.
Two versions exist. According to
our OFFICIAL reports, the Japanese
were rogvdy md arrogant. It is the
notion Of the other side that our
young man was provocative in his
attitude.
But it does not seem to me that
any good can come of inquiry and
the exchange of notes. Japan has
issued an apology which is less than
a kowtow. What of it? is my atti-
tude. Our Mr.. Chamberlain suf-
fered no move than few bad minutes
and had his face bruised and cut.
There is no healing property in
shedding blood for blood.
Quite generally it is conceded that
the truculent individual who must
fight it out whenever his toes are
stepped upon is relic of an age
well gone. Sc should it be with
nations.
The honor of the United States is
a thing which ought to be rooted in
our deeds and aspirations and not
IN any consular cuticle.

Less Than ConCiIiatory

VERY probably it is true that
' the Japanese do not like us
and have no disposition to be over
eager in salving American pride.
Yet it is true that we have done
almost nothing to create a warmer
feeling of comradesG7ip between the
countries.
For years We have ridden rough
shod over the self-respect of a
nascent nation. Whether for good
or i'll, the states along our Pacific
coast objected strenuoglsly to Japa-
nese immigration. 1t was quite
possible to achieve exclusion and
still permit the japanese to feel

Probes, Talk Futile

OBVIOUSLY, such situation
~ calls for something more
substantial than strikes, agitation,
or a ruthless exercise of legal
authority. 1t presents problems
that are only made more difficult
by political crusades and industrial
disturbances.
Scratching the raw spots does no
good. Such Investigations as have
been made and such stories as have
been published will not accomplish
their fun purpose unless they lead
to program of immediate relief
and permanent reconstruction for
this district.
In orde: to be effective and help

true that those that must step out
dislike the idea of separating from

they want to pun at the teat as

such as Sexton, Grossart and the
Democratic members Of the county

their selection partly to the work

Fewer Farms. More Forests

The annual report of Robert B, Stuart United
states forester m the Pacific northwest contains an
idea that is well worth consideration in land where
agriculture has been ailing for SO long For it is Mr.
Stuart's idea that the nation needs fewer farms and
more forests, and he says:
More land has been brought under cultivation
than can be farmed, if farming is well done without
creating burdensome agricultural SURPRISES Public
policies now taking shape to reclothe with forest lands
on which agriculture longer can be practiced sue
cesstuly and cutover lands formerly thought to be
destined for agricultural use."
In view of the plight of the farmer and the steady
dwlndlng Of our timber supply, here is a proposal
that deserves great deal of thought

Finland had proclaimed its indie

Sweden was the first country to
recognize the new republic. France,

lowed.
On Jan. 9 the central executive
committee of the Soviets unani-
mously accepted the recognition of
Finland's independence.

the future of Finland as an inde-

no we have to go through all
~ that again? Distinctly I re-
member the controversy which
ragged between us and Mexico about
just such a demand. And when it
was all over the dead of both ma
tions lay along the streets of Vera
Cruz, and not single living man
can say that any good came of it.
The most pacific are less than
wise if they maintain that war can
not come again. Certain stops exist
which can be pressed to rouse the
fighting feeling. 1t seems to me
that before this stage is reached we
should sit calmly and consider the
human and the international values
involved. When the bugles blow
only those completely insulated can
keep tight rein upon their emo
tons.

THE average blood presume of
4 men at 20 years Of age is 100;
at so years of age is about 1886. In
people who are overweight this
pressure is likely to be higher.
A variation of five millimeters Of
mercury above or below these Ag-
ures may be considered within tEle
average. Variations of more than
five millimeters above or below ana
conditions for study.
There are many reason why the.
blood pressure may fall below the
average. This occurs whenever a
person is nauseated, faints, or has
a severe hemorrhage.
There are, however, other condi-
tons of general weakness in which
the blood pressure is low, and in
which the physician needs to con-
Germ himself with building the per-
son back into a good condition.

District Back to Work.
Other Resources Must Be
Found.
U knoxville, Tenn, Jan. S.-The
N coal district of southeastern
Kentucky includes all of Bell and
Harlan counties as well as a small
area at the western tip Of Virginia.
Roughly speaking, it is a long,
narrow strip of land, running from
northeast to southwest, containing
about one thousand square miles
and 100000 people, and inclosed by
two parallel mountain ranges. Be-
tween these ranges are spurs, peaks
and hogbacks, cut by deep, crooked
valleys through which run brooks,
creeks and rivers.
In prehistoric times, this region
was the bed Of great lake or
marsh, supporting the gigantic jun
gle lush, which eventually decayed
and was converted into coal by the
pressure of earth and rocks which
succeeding ages accumulated above
it. Then came a long period Of rain
and flood, with endless volumes Of
water cutting channels for drain
age, not only down through the &C
emulation of earth, but down
through the coal beds themselves,
leaving the latter some 300 or 400
feet above the bottom of the val
legs as they exist today.

SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETZ-

Nel0 President Of American
Chemists Society, Optimis-
tic as to Future of Science.
Sees Bright Future for
1882.
WE live in an age of science.
w Therefore. with the dawn Of
new year, it is of interest to see
what scientists think of the future.
Let us, then, give ear to DR.. L. V.
Redman, who Jan. l assumed the
presidency of the American Chemi-
cal Society.
DR.. Redman, who is vice-president
and director of research of the
Bakelite Corporation, has just taken
over the reins for an organization
which has 10000 members.
For the most part. DR.. Redman is
optimistic about 1882.
I'VE have greater wealth than
ever before; wealth to endow edu-
cation and research in the pure
science; wealth to finance industrial
research and its exploitation" he
says.
Men of fingnce, industry and
commerce are becoming more and
more research conscious. We have
a broadening foundation of knowl-
edge on which to build; an expand
ing, inexhaustible territory to be ex-
plored and cultivated. We have
a greater number Of well-trained
workers.
True, we have much to learn
about the control of wealth, whether
of labor or of commodities. We
have not learned to achieve eco
nomic stability.
But in terms of living, every crest
of the wave has been higher and
every trough less depressed.
I'VE are treasured by the fact
that our present condition is one Of
maladjustment not poverty; sur
felt, not famine"

a gentlemen's agreement.
But senatorial firebrands would
have none of that. They insisted
that the barrier should be erected
IN mean way and that our racial
integrity could be preserved only by
the thumbing of the nose.
For years the newspapers of
William Randolph Heart have done
all things possible to make cordiality
impossible between the continents.
just now it seems as if Japan has
embarked upon an imperialistic ad-
venture in Manchuria. China has
become to her what Central Amer

Mr.. Hearst, for all his avowed de-
votion to a complete attitude of
isolation and first page patriotism,
is an international symbol. His
counterpart exists in Britain, in
France and in Japan.
And it seems to me that these
men who argue for complete pro-
vincialism are the very ones who
betray their own theory. They do
not actually mean what they say,
for there lis none so truculent as the
avowed advocate of complete isola-
ton.
1t is from such that we get the
demands for salutes and fanatics.
The man who cries "All for Amer
lea and the world we'll LOST" is the
very one who would have our
armies and our navies on the scent
of insults real and fancied.

berlain was slapped around by SOL
