A rousing missionary meeting was
held in the parlors of the Presbyter
ian church last Thursday afternoon
under the leadership of Mrs. J. R
Wick, who presided with earnest
Christian dignity. A large attend
ance and an unusually large collec
tion proved that the subject, "Mor
monism," had been thoroughly stud
ied and the perils therefrom, to the
western states, fully realized. Many
do not know of its steady growth and
terrible menace to the United States
Mrs. Shinn discussed and reviewed
the lecture recently given by Dr.
Wishart, who was for sixteen years
a missionary to the Mormons at Salt
Lake City. Mrs. Shinn has made a
study of the subject and she empha
sized the leading features of Dr
Wishart's lecture. Her heart is in
the cause, and we need others like
her.
Next, Mrs. Van Sant, who has stud
lied this subject thoroughly, gave ex
cerpts from an interesting article in
the Mission World.
On the program was Mrs. McCoy
who gave the status of the church
schools In Utah and information of
their thorough work.
- In the general discussion many
participated, showing unusual inter
est and Intelligence.
Mrs. Freas Conner, a visitor from
Ogden, Utah, enlightened those pres
ent to the conditions prevailing in
her . town. Only four per cent of
the people of Ogden are anti-Mormon
and only two business houses are
conducted by them. All other bust
ness lies in the hands of the Mor
mons, who (it is well known) are the
best regulated secret society and po
lice system in the United States.
The last half hour was cheery and
social, enlivened by the cup "that
cheers but does not inebriate" and
the fine New England doughnuts
that only Presbyterian ladies can
make. Thanks are due to Mrs. Poley
and her committee.

Political Announcement
Ralph M. Hedges is going to make
the race for recorder in the city cam
paign which ends with the election
in December. Mr. Hedges came west
four years ago from Cincinnati, Ohio
looked the country over from Sacra
mento to North Yakima and decided
Ashland looked the best to him. He
went to sleep last fall and spent the
winter and part of the summer in
Imperial Valley, but the heat woke
him up and he has decided that Ash
land Is better than ever and a good
city to stay and grow up with. His
former connection with one of the
largest stationery and printing firms
in Cincinnati as office man and city
solicitor well fits him to perform the
duties of city recorder. He stands
for law and order. He wants th
office and to get it must have the
necessary votes, so therefore respect
fully asks the support of the voters of
Ashland.

the church to the community was dis
cussed by Rev. Carnahan and Mayor

their efforts to maintain the high
moral character of our city.

get-together social. The Tea Cup
Club served refreshments, nev. J
S. Smith, a former pastor, and Mrs

HIGH (SCHOOL JIBLETS.
Merlin Wilson, a former high
school boy, but who moved to Los
Angeles when he was a sophomore,
in a recent letter received by Fred
Schuerman from him, states that he
was elected joke editor of the big
high school annual there. He is. a
senior this year.
Professor. Vlning spoke at the high
school before assembly Wednesday
morning. His talk was uplifting, to
the point, as usual, and very benefi
cial. '"Never acknowledge defeat
call it arreBted success, keep trying,
keep moving your aim higher and
higher, and make the keynote of your
life future success."
Medford has chartered a special
train and expects to bring us about
300 people, so the high school boys
and girls will have to turn out to
make a noise. This also applies to
all townspeople.
Miss Nissley is coaching the anni
versary play, which will be put on
Just before Thanksgiving. It is a
scream from the start to finish, be
ing a parody on the Merchant of Ven
ice. '
Miss. PrlBcllla Carnahan sang a
part from the operetta Pauline as a
number for assembly entertainment
Wednesday morning. It was much
enjoyed by the pupils.
There will' be a student's rally next
Friday at the Vlning Theatre. Prices
will be 10 cents for high school stu
dents. Last Saturday evening Miss Han
singer entertained the faculty of the
high school at a little party at her
home. The first part of the evening
was occupied with a candy pull.
Though the candy was sticky, much
enjoyment was had in the pulling of
it. Miss Nissley had quite a time In
finding her ring, and her excitement
and annoyance at its loss furnished
great amusement for those present.
During the latter part of the evening
a light, luncheon was served, the de
UclouBness of which spoke well for
the hostess. Those present report one
of the most enjoyable times of the
season.
