SPOTLIGHT OF SPECULATIVE
INTEREST CONTINUES IN
SENATORIAL VACAN CY|
CAUSED BY DEATH
fBy Associated PreSSl

tBy Associated PreSSD
TALLAHASSEE, May 25.-For
the second week, the spotlight of
speculative interest continued on
the senatorial vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Park Tram
nell, and during the week it was
heightened by a break between
Chairman B. Hodges and Vice
Chairman E. B. Donnell of the
Democratic executive committee.
Hodges said he would call a
committee meeting June 80 to de-
eide about having a special sena-
torial nominating primary, but
Donnell teiegrarhed committee
members asking if they would pay
their own expenses to a meeting
in Jacksonville next Monday to
consider having a senatorial pri-
mary on June 3d. the date of the
regular second primary.
Divided opinions were express
ed in the telegraphed answers
which Donnell received.
There continued to be division
Of opinion among lawyers as to
whether a special senatorial pri-
mary would have any legal effect.
There was agreement, however.
that such a primary could be call
ed in order to give the people
voice in the matter, and then have
the Democratic executive COM
mittee certify as its NOMINEES the
candidate receiving the highest
vote in the primary balloting.
Generally legal opinions leaned
to agreement that any attempt to
have a senatorial primary along
with the regular primary on June
% could be enjoined by court ac-
ton because Senator Trammell
died after the time for candidates
f, to qualify for the regular primary.
There still has been NO Off
cial proclamation from Governor
Sholtz declaring a vacancy in the
senate ranks and calling for cleo
ton of successor to Trammell.
! He also has NOT made an ad in
term appointment to serve in
Trammell's place until a success
sor is elected in November.
Candidates for governor seem
agreed on at least four major
questions. They are against a
! sales tax. for repeal of the slot
machine legalizing law, for guar
! anteed state school finances, and
four "safc, sane, economical OPP
Grafton of government"
! The candidates make their own
platforms. The Democratic party
| does NOT hold a convention to
draft a party platform.
Organized blocs of voters will
have an important part in the out
come of the primaries. These in
clude school interest, indepen-
dent merchants. labor. amuse-
ment interests, and old age pen
! sion groups.
Candidates have sought the
support of these organizations. in
addition to their bids for favor
in the great field of individual.
unorganized ballot-casters.
So far. there has been NO
withdrawal from the list of can
didates for me- offices. Ballots
have been certified with IA candi-
dates for governor. five for state
comptroller. five for superinten-
dent of education, two for at
/ torney general. two for commits
sioner. of agriculture, and three
for state treasurer.

George, or Hills. the Martells' chauf-

Now Hills was gone, and the memory

But even now whenever she thought

Strong Finish in
Bout Wins Negro
1O-ROund Grind

SEATTLE, Dec. 16. Up)--Allen
Matthews, 1884, ST. Louis Negro
middleWeight, survived three knock
downs and finished with a whirl-
wind of left jabs to win a 1O-round
decision over Johnny Skies, 164%,
Bismark, NJ D., here last night.
Skies battered Matthews to the
canvas first in early stages of the
bout, and followed up the advan-
tage with two more knockdowns
in the sixth.
Matthews recovered from the set
backs, however, and opened a re-.
vitalized attack with a stiff left
haymaker to the chin early in the
ninth. Throughout that stanza the
st. Louis fighter tore at his oppon-
ent savagely. and it was apparent
that only the bell saved the North
Dakotan from a knockout.

OXYGEN INJECTION VERSUS
 BLOOD TRANSFUSION

It is questionable whether blood corpuscles transferred from one per- son to another through transfusion of blood survive in the blood of the recipient. The beneficial effect of transfusion is rather stimulation of the patients own blood building powers and the restoration of vol urne or bulk to the circulating blood. These are not the sole purposes of transfusion. Sometimes the anti toxic or immune value of the con- valescent donors blood may be re- quired to help the recipients battle. Sometimes the clot-forming ferment in normal blood may be needed to help control bleeding in hemophilia (the bleeder state) and allied mala- dies. But in such emergencies as shock, exhaustion, hemorrhage the immediate purpose of the injection of healthy blood into the veins of the patient is to stimulate the pa- tient and tide over the crisis.
 In such cases anoxia or anoxemia (lack of oxygen in the tissues of the body or in the blood) is the critical feature. The patient is unable to oxygenate his own blood. In trans fusion, however, 1t is the routine

What IS the Christmas "spirit?" It consists of many things. First, or this should be first, the gentle influence of the Holy Child who gave us the greatest uplift of soul the world has ever known. Peace, service and forgiveness. Faith, hope and love.
 Second, is the more materialistic sentiment of gifts and gaiety, sec rets and shopping.
 Actually it is relief to every grown-up to lay aside his dignity and slip out of his responsible man. tie of office.
 The parent need no longer play a role. If Dad gets gay and foolish and works the street-vendor's jump ing jack, or nudges the bank pres- ident and hands him somersault- ing turtle to wind up, neither of them need to feel ashamed or look over their shoulders to see if the board of directors is near. The chances are that the board of di- rectors are, each and every one of them, enjoying relapse into child hood in one way or another them- selves.
 Mothers Popped Up, Too Mother feels 8 peculiar elevation of spirit, with added zest for life and work.
 She gets up a bit earlier, filled with the days plans, because some thing mystical is at work within her. She is back in her own pre- Christmas days, looking ahead as she used to. And she wants her family to feel the same ways she used to feel. Perhaps she pretends to be tired and complains about her back or rough hands, but inside she is humming with the spirit of Christmas.
 The children are happy, ex- ceedingly, but you'd never guess why. We have missed part of the answer if we think 1t is Santa Claus and tree and stockings. A Break For Children
 The other half is this: Everyone around them, including mother and daddy, have become almost, if not quite, children like them- selves. It is just about the only time of the year that the big, top heavy, grown-up world gives them

The Family Doctor
Noses Are Delicate Instruments,
 And Should Be Cleared Carefully

If you must blow your nose when you have a cold, be careful not to blow 1t in such manner as to force the infected material from the nose through the custodian tubes into the ears.
 The small eustachian tubes run from the back of the nose into the internal ear. When they be- come obstructed by swelling or by infection, there is prompt inter ference with hearing. The head becomes full of noises, whistles, and other disturbances of sound.
 Many years ago, a French post master who had suffered gradual loss of hearing and who was troubled 8 great deal with noises in his head thought of 8 way to pass a tube up to the opening of the custodian tube and to empty 1t of it's obstructing content.
 This method has been developed and 1t now IS possible to clear the custodian tube in this way to aid hearing, and to help clear up in- fections in the ear.
 When you blow your nose al- ways keep one nostril open as a safety valve. In the correct +anholn ~ anca hiou,i,10 4ha handkerchief is held loosely over the nostrils, which are not held tightly shut, and only enough air is forced thruogh to help the re- tained materials to pass outward.
 If the material in the nose is SO thick or so tightly packed that force is required for it's expul- sion, it is safer to have the nose suitably irrigated with a slightly warm saline solution.
 IlI-treatment of the nasal tissue, which may result in secondary in- lection or severe damage, involves the pulling of hairs, the attempt to cut the hairs by passing scissors up into the nose, or the poking of hard probes or directors into the nose to remove foreign substances or crusts.
 When there are crusts in the nose because of infection or dam age to the nasal septum. or for some similar reason, they should be softened with oils or ointments. and no attempt should be made to break them off A safe washing solution for the nose contains very small amounts of baking soda, borax. and salt in warm water

EVENING CALLS FOR MAKEUP SHOULDERS

Before you put on an evening dress, you should make up your arms and shoulders just as carefully as your face. Cover them with foun- dation cream or lotion, powder gen. erously, let 1t set, then whisk of the excess. Or, better yet, use 8 liquid powder which is less likely to rub of on the sleeve of your es- cort's black dinner jacket.
 Always use your nail brush or a long handled bath brush on should CTS as well as elbows. If they get chapped and rough in cold weather, apply 8 night cream once or twice a week and leave 1t on for at least 20 minutes. Also, be sure to put hand lotion on your arms and el- bows once 8 day.
 If your arms are too plump, you can reduce them by massage. With the palm and fingertips of one hand. knead and manipulate the su- perfiuous flesh on the other arm. Put cream on your hand before you start. Keep massaging until the skin is quite pink. Then reverse. working on the opposite arm with the other hand.
 Certain stretching routines will alleviate the fiabbiness on the uri- der-side of arms between elbows and shoulders. Stretch your arms high above your head. clenching fists and making muscles tense. Lower arms to shoulder height. Re- lax and repeat. Exercises similar to the breast stroke used In swimming will build up too-thin arms. If you are very much under-weight, better consult your family doctor. Unless he ad- vises otherwise. drink more milk, eat e hearty breakfast and sec that your meal hours are regular. DO not eat between meals and be sure to sleep not less than nine hours ench night.

break. People suddenly become child-minded and act and think like boys and girls. A common ground is reached. The child finds himself king instead of pawn. He is not being played down to because he likes toys, or lis just a kid" Everyone, for some strange reason, has become toy-minded, too. And out fo ra god time, with duty and routine in the background.
 Through the year, children feel that the world stoops to them, and they are forever looking up. Now everybody is waist-high, and all the same size.
