Gala Event At Normal Friday The topic of conversation nowadays is the big normal enthusiasm gather ing next Friday, when all of Ashland's citizens are t come together for an afternoon of genuine good time. Everybody is requested to be present. And think! Admission to the grounds istfo be absolutely FREE. At a meeting of the chairmen of the different committees Thursday night it was decided by the ways and means committee to make the admis sion absolutely free. Money must be raised, however, that is, as small sums, to pay expenses, so It was de cided to sell tickets to and from the grounds at 10 cents each way per ride. This will make the cost of get- ting to and from only 20 cents per person. Professor Briscoe, chairman of the entertainment committee, has secured Ray Murpay to repeat the wonderful Roman ride which he performed be fore the admiring eyes of Ashlanders several years ago. This alone will be worth the price of riding to and from. Then there will be ealithump lan speeches, bucking exhibitions, games, races and everything for the amusement of the people that are going to attend. The transportation committee has procured a great many autos for the occasion, so there will be room for everyone. Ames' big truck and Ed Staples' big twelve-passenger will also be asked to run on this occasion. Under the management of the ways and means committee the tickets for the rides will be sold from box booths along the street; stations to be in front of the Vining Theatre. All auto owners will please be on hand at 2 o'clock, by order of Nininger Grants Pass to Buy Water System A proposal from the Rogue River Water Company, Involving the pur chase by the cityof the water system by which the municipality Is served, was presented to the common coun cil at its meeting last night by Mayor McKinstry, says the Grants Pass Courier. , The mayor explained that the attempt made by a previous ad ministration to reduce the water rates charged by the company had re sulted In thu application of the com pany to the state commission for an increase of rates, and that it seemed likely that the increase asked would be allowed. .To forestall this in crease, the mayor proposed the pur chase of the plant, and had taken the question up with the water company. The company had set a price of $125, 000 upon the system, agreeing to take in payment the bonds of the city at 0V2 per cent interest. Mayor McKin stry submitted a statement showing how through municipal ownership of its plant the city would profit flnan cially and receive much better service than it is now receiving. An ordi nance providing for the calling of a special bonding election for the pur chase of the plant had been prepared, but the point was raised that the Issue of $125,000 bonds for the pur chase would run the city bonds over the $400,000 limit provided by char ter. For this reason no action was taken by the council, and the pro posal will have to await some solu tion In this regard before it can be put to vote of the people. The figures presented by the mayor showed that the company claimed to be operating at the present time at a gross deficit of $1,705.35 per annum, nd that a adical increase of rates might be ex- ASH LAM). .

Big signs will be painted upon the city streets today as advertising. W. O. Dickerson has kindly donated the ma terial necessary for the signs. The Ladies' Civic Improvement Club gen erously gave the funds with which to have the window cards printed, and many others have been ready to help. All merchants are asked to decorate for the normal picnic in conjunction with the big Shriner gathering. It would be especially fine if the resi dents along the Boulevard and any other part of the city could bang flags, etc., out as all Shrlners will be taken but past the normal grounds. All the ladles' clubs meeting on that day have called off their meet ings until a future date. This Is go ing to be something worth while, something that will pay everyone to come out of his shell and take a look at the world on this occasion, if on no other. It will be a day of laughing, meeting and greeting, besides a day of enthusiasm for the re-establishment of our normal school. Stores will all close from 1:30 till 6. no Increase would be necessary under municipal ownership. He suggested that the citizens might expect an in crease of from 50 to 75 cents per ser vice unless the city could find some way to purchase the plant. The Benior officers for the coming year are as follows: President, Le Roy Ashcraft; vice-president, Bill Holmes; secretary, Robert Spencer; treasurer, Harold Simpson. This is much the same group of officers that headed the junior class of last year. The senior class is making some big plans for the year. From the Medford Sun we learn that in Medford James Vance was elected president, Vera Merriman vice-president, and Griffith Cowgill treasurer. The newly elected officers were called upon to make a speech. Each responded and the next half hour was filled with words of praise for the other classes and the faculty. It was decided that a number of en tertainments would be given this year and that the senior class would or ganize a basketball team. If our senior class could organize a basketball team, some fine games between Medford and Ashland seniors could be arranged.
