ODD FELLOWS VISIT TABLE ROCK CAMP Last Tuesday evening about 25 members from Roruo River Encamp ment No. 30, I. O. O. F. of Medford, visited Table Rock Encampmeut No. 10 at Jacksonville. The Medford boys chortored tho Roguo River Valley's motor car for tho occasslon and some went in automobiles and others rodo tholr bicycles. Thoso that went on tho motor car were obliged to walk beyond Oakdale avenue to got to the car owing to a carload of crushed stone boiiiR off tho track noar the city park, but tho boys enjoyed the walk and were passing through tho park met Patriarch Ike Fridegar and concluded that thoy needed ono more Patriarch to mako a jolly good crowd and therefore proceeded to tako Pat riarch Fridegar under protost as hu had anothor oppolntment to keep but his plea was all In vain for ho was 8houldorod by four of tho bravo Pat riarchs and placed on tho car but Ike roported a very good tlino and says ho would not havo missed It for n good deal.

WILL LEAVE FOR CRATER LAKE; MAY WRITE IT UP Says Roguo River Valley Is Ideal Spot Many Opportunities in Ore gon Country for City Bred. Jack London, socialist, novelist, sociologist, master navigator, pros pector, war correspondent nnd enmp er, is "in our midst." Tho socialist, etc., etc., arrived Friday nftcrnoon nt the helm of a four mustang carryall and will remain in Medford nnd sur rounding territory for several days. He is accompanied by Mrs. London and his Japanese scrvnnt. And ns a result of his visit the life of tho Rogue River orchardist will probably be bared to tho public view in his forthcoming novel "Back to tho Soil." Crater Lake will also be visited and written up by him. London is in search of material and "local color" for a new novel. In It it is his purpose, he says, to urgo tho "Hack to the Soil" movement. And having found here an ideal valley in which to go "Back 16 the Soil" it is reasonable to suppose that the life tf tho orchardist in tho fair valley of the Roguo will form au important chapter of the book. London spent much of tho day Saturday in glean ing facts regarding production and conditions as they exist in tho val lej and took occasion to visit Jack sonville, about which so much of -southern Oregon's history and tradi tions cling. London proved himself very adept at gaining information md wherf in the presenco of thoso who are well informed regarding this locality kept up a continual fire of .testions. On Monday Mr. and Mrs. London will lenve for a visit at Crator Lake. The novelist will make tho trip in an automobile nnd leavo his four mus tangs in Medford for a rest. After a da or two at tho lake ho will re turn to Medford and from hero con tinue his journey south. He intends to write nn article descriptive of tho lake if ho deems it worthy after hav ing seen it, but states that at present he has no plans in this regard. "I am at work on a new novel" stated Mr. London, "and in it I will endeavor to further tho present "back to tho soil" movement through out tho United States. I havo gloan ed a great deal of information re garding tho territory through which I have traveled during tho past two months and have fouud countless op portunities for thoso of tho city who wish to get out and mako their lifo under tho open sky. All along tho California const there are opportua itics without number while the val ley is indeed beautiful and many wonderful facts havo been told mo in connection with it. And from what I enn see with my own eyes there Ik little occasion to doubt the reports. "I havo long wished to visit Crater Lako nnd view this inarvol and'I only hopo that I will not bo disappointed in it. I do not know whether I shall endeavor to describe it or not. I shall have to see it first and never make plans in ndvanco." Mr. and Mrs. London loft San Francisco Juno 1 nnd mndo thoir way up tho const in a spring wagon drawn by four mustangs. None of tha horses had boon hitched or driven be fore Mr. London undertook tho trip. IIo was rather doubtful of his abili ty as a drivor until ho was out soveral days and mndo slow progress. After that ho found that it was n tiresome but a comparatively easy task to handle them. OLYMPIA, Wash. Governor Hay will tour tho southeastern part of tho state during tho Iattor part of tho month.
