Inclosing 6 cents for postope for the finest commu nltv Tvimphlet ever published THE sweetest sounds iii the world arc ohildrou's voices. They piny upon the heart strings tho haunting nielo dios oC other days, when the sun shone brighter and earth wore a fresher garb, when life seemed fairer than it does today. This is the season for sehool entertainments, when eager little faces and tremulous little voices, and excited little bodies after days of Jaborious training make their first appearance in public an event feverishlv awaited and long remembered in childhood's annals. One must indeed be callous who can hear the piping chorus ol children s songs, watch the anxious expectancy of the little faces and witness their earnest striving with out emotion, without its awakening a call to higher things. As l?obt. G. Tngersoll said: "The laugh of a child will make the holiest day more sacred still. Strike with hand of fire, O weird musician, thy harp strung with Apollo's golden hair: fill the vast cathedral aisles with symphonies sweet and dim, deft toucher of the organ keys; blow, bugler, blow, until thy silver notes do touch and kiss the moonlit waves, and charm the lovers wandering 'mid the vine-clad hills. But know, your sweetest strains are discords all, compared with Childhood's happy laugh the laugh that fills the eyes with light and every heart with joy. 0 rippling river of Laughter, thou art the blessed boundary line between the beasts and men; and every wayward wave of thine doth drown some fretful fiend of care. O Laughter, rose lipped daughter of Joy, there are dimples enough in thy cheeks to catch and hold and glorify all the teal's of grief."

Boos, former secretary of the Medford Commercial club, to the small town newspaper, which hits the nail on the head so hard that comment is unnecessary, except to admit that the appreciation is rare indeed: To the Editer: The importance of a town Is generally the Impression created frptu tho kind of a newspaper there is published in tho town. A local newspaper is tho mouthpiece of the town, it does moro for a town than all the booster, commercial clubs and boom literature can do. For the size of our town our local newspapers are up to tho standard com pared with towns of similar Importance. Then there are towns much larger than Medford which have no daily papers at all. Of course- by their newspapers thou shall know tkeni. Many prospec tive comers write, ''I don't care for your literature; send mo copies of your newspaper. I may want to subscrlbo for it for one or more months," and If you consult tho subscription list of lioth our papers you will find in their out-of-town list many short term subscribers who arc studying our town through the papers they receive. I am in favor of improving our local papers. Our papers should con tain more reading matter. A larger telegraph service, set In smaller type and set solid. To do this everybody will admit that the cost would be correspondingly greater. It is the duty of every local merchant, manu facturer, contractor and business man to advertise in his home paper, and it Is also the duty of the reading community to at least subscribe for one of the home papers. Some business men look upon n newspaper only so far of "What can I get out of It by inserting my ad." This merchant is not tho best citizen. He Is short sighted, selfish, and one of that caliber that don't care a tinker's cuss for his city or town which he expects trndo from. Help to lmprovo your homo paper by liberal patronage and.thun the growth of a Green Bay tree would not be in It, A small town newspaper Is a dead and shut proposition. None ever got rich at it. It's an every day grind to find ways and means to meet payrolls, and If the publisher's receipts should increase, you can depend on It that increase goes back in the columns. There Is no other way around It. We have an up-to-date city, our municipal improvements aro modern, our water, lighting, sower, police, streets and sidewalk system compare favorably with ninny cities twice the size of Medford and much of the credit Is due first to our news papers."

LOCAL DRAMATIC TALENT FAR ABOVE AVERAGE i " ' With, tho presentation of tho "Val ley Farm" last Friday by tho inuin boi'ei of St. Murk's Pcoplo's Guild, theatergoers M'oro surprised and astonished at tho good and well act ing cast. Prnoliuully up to this time no ono over thought we had enough jLOUUfrdrflwatfo lulcul io sIoko u pro- MUCII disgust is expressed over the actions of the president and ex-president in hammering away at each other in their campaign for the nomination. We are told that it is "undignified" and "disgraceful." Well, what of it? Dignity never bought the people airything 3'et. Frock coats, silk hats and pomposity may he preconceived ideas of statesmanship, but they never did anything tor humanity. A clothing store dummy may lie correctly dressed, according to Ben Selling, and it may look every inch a king, but it is only a la" figure. Taft as a fighting man, battling for his conception of right, is infinitely preferable to Taft the easy going, good liaturcd, dignified executive letting others do his fighting, or as the automaton that only danced when others pulled the string in a gentlemanly, dignified way. Taft was censured for not fighting, for letting his gratitude to Roosevelt for "his first nomination stand in the way of defending himself from the vicious attacks by his former friend. Now that he is defending himself and attacking the enemy, he is being censured by the molly coddles. Roosevelt cannot be blamed for attacking Taft, for the latter lias repudiated every one of "my policies" and stands committed to and backed by big business. If Roosevelt is a republican, Taft is not, and if Taft is, Roospvelt is not. The contest is interesting as showing the irreconcilable conflict existing between the conservative and progres sive factions of the republican party the same contest that is being waged in the democratic party. It shows the absurdity of still clinging to party divisions based upon dead issues ol iitty years ago. This is a conflict of fundamental principles, it is the legislation for the dollar versus legislation for the man. it is entrenched special privilege against democracy. On with the fight. It is not only entertaining, but in structive, The people are learning more about their executives than thev have ever known and are, beginning fto realize the fundamentals that make present party alignments a farce.
