The way the bath has been neglected by the local bird set has the men at the hotel, pool room and barber shop worried. It isn't that birds are not taking baths. They flock to the McWil-liams place every day and use Prince's pan of drinking water, much to the dog's chagrin. And all the time the city's provision for dusty birds stands in the park alone and unused. One of the local directors of public affairs suggests that a decoy be placed on the side of the bath; a stool pigeon, so tD speak.

King of Newark, K. airplane pilot, was Pick-up and Pulling Power i Engine dlspatchments out of New Castle Junction on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad have leaped forward in the past six weeks. The present average daily dlspatchments is 49 engines, with last Sunday topping the list with 55. This as against an average of 22 daily dlspatchment of engines six weeks ago.

There are two reasons for the unusual increase. First the freight business which has been climbing by leaps and bounds, and secondly the heavy passenger business, made so by the fact that the B. is hauling thousands of visitors to the Century of Progress in Chicago. Huge coal shipments to the lake and iron ore from the lake account for much of the freight increase. The increase meanE that many engine and train crews are being recalled, shop men are being recalled, and there is an air of intensity in the Junction yards that comes only from plenty of business.

Daily Digest (CoH.tIn.atd Trom Tug Tovr) is said to be the most rapid this country ever witnessed, the pace being about five tiroes as great as that attained in 1915, when huge war orders from. Europe poured into this country." The Banner also refers to the appointment of Secretary Walker, with the comment that "heavy responsibilities will rest upon him," and that "he will, Indeed, be the key man, In a sense, of the entire recovery and relief program, inasmuch as reports from every bureau and department must be 'cleared' through him and be ready for transmission in compact form to the meeting of the general board of strategy and, where advisable, to the President himself." "The people of the country," records the OBHKOSH DAILY NORTHWESTERN, "approve the setting up of an advisory council, to act as a general board of directors for the recovery program. It is the bigegst job of the moment. The hopes and hearts of the people are with the Administration, even though there are minds that are not yet convinced of the possibilities the plan. Mr.

Walker's chief duties as the 'co-ordinator of co-or- I as he has been termed by some, is to have the various mem- bers of the group agreed on the essentials of a particular program be-i fore submitting it to the President, The President wants to have cen tral authority, but does not intend to surrender or delegate any of his real powers." "The Administration," advises the NEWARK EVENING NEWS, "cannot permit vigilance to relax for a moment. With billions to account for, a trust made sacred by the purposes for which it has been created, the party in control faces a test the outcome of which is bound to affect not only the economic, but the political future of the country. The Democratic party itself may be made or broken by its passage through this fire," "It will presently become a planning board," says the ANBURY NEWS-TIMES of the group, while the SPRINGFIELD (Mass.) REPUBLICAN advises that "there is no Constitutional obstacle to the permanence of such a council." Card Of Thanks We wish to thank our friends for the kindness and sympathy shown us during our recent bereavement in the death of our son Michael Kubich. Also thanking Max Ludwig, and the Caddys and all others who donated cars or sent flowers, Mr. AND MRS.

JOHN KUBICH, AND FAMILY. It "Any abnormal reaction to a drug is professionally known as an idiosyncrasy and means that the individual is particularly sensitized for that drug. A great many valuable drugs continuously used with benefit, will occasionally produce very uncomfortable, if not poisonous, symptoms in persons having an idiosyncrasy against that particular drug. Such a possibility is sufficient argument against the use Df drugs not professionally supervised. But coupled to this is the grave possibility that solf-administered drugs are but the consequence Df self-diagnosis.

"It indeed is rather hard to explain why persons will readily delegate to others personal matters which require experience they do not possess, but are prone to, set themselves up as diagnosticians of their own bodily ailments of, which thay are woefully ignorant. It is just as difficult to understand why people will try out a remedy which some 'dear friend' suggests because it relieved another dear friBnd suffering Irom supposedly similar symptoms. "Professional men have devoted years nf study, to which is added daily experience, to. attain necessary inform atior to treat the sick. It is inexcusable presumption for the lay person to assume such a role, either In giving medical advice to others or applying it to Dne's self.
