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-

Senior Officers
Have Been Chosen

A wagonload of watermelons and i pected under private ownership, while
muskmelons have been secured, so
refreshment can be given to the enor
mous crowds that will gather. 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.

J.t,H. Hardy Might Return.
In answer to the telegram sent by

but is withheld at present by his busi

"As'Yegards coming back. It seems
now all but Impossible, and while I
shall make every effort to do so, it
can only be on the event of our sell
ing our interests here. We are mak
ing every effort to do this, and if we
should be successful I will report to
Ashland as soon as possible."
