Slightly Empty.
Owing to the Rose Festival, which
called many Ashland people to Port
land, and the Bruce Evans meetings,
the week-end was rather devoid of
social happenings, and as a result
the column Is not very big.

Methodists' Children's Day.
The regular morning service at the
Methodist church was supplanted
yesterday by an excellent Children's
Day program. Canaries added their
songs to those of the children. The
special feature of the service was an
elaborate flag exercise by twenty-six
girls and boys. Miss May Skeen took
a leading part in the flag exercise,
which closed with "The Star Span
gled Banner," sung by Miss Mary
Welsenburger, the school joining in
the chorus. This was followed by a
flag drill by a dozen girls, which,
while Intricate, was perfect in execu
tion, winning merited applause. The
services closed with the singing of
"America. The program was as fol

W. R. Scott passed through In his
private car attached to first 16 Sun
day. Mr. Whitney, another high of
ficial, was on his special car attached
to the second section.
With the inauguration of the new
train service effective tomorrow a
change of about an hour and a half in
the time of the Dunsmuir-Redding
local has been made.
Among the latest acquisitions to
the colony of railroad families who
make their homes in Ashland are the
families of Conductor Gill, Fireman
Eastman and Engineer Telford. '
The advent of the new trains has
cleaned up the waiting list of passen
ger brakemen and several men were
hired. The additional motive power
required will put several enginemen
back on the main line.
The switch crews are having con
siderable extra work to do lately on
account of the many cattle and sheep
trains which must be taken care oi
here. The sheep are all transferred
to other cars.
The extent of the damage done by
the recent floods at Redding was
clearly shown by Pathe Weekly mov
ies of the raging torrents and wreck
ed track, shown at the Lyric Theatre
Sunday evening.
The Klamath Falls branch train
will leave Klamath Falls daily at 10
o'clock instead of at 8 o clock as
heretofore. This change is made to
make connections with the new train
at Weed and will eliminate the four
hour layover at Weed which travelers
were forced to experience in the past.
Claire Beebe is employed in the
clerk's office at the local station, the
opening of the summer resort sta
tions in California and vacations for
employes creating the vacancy. ' Eu
gene Moody is now at Dunsmuln
Increased travel is necessitating
extra sections on nearly all of the
trains passing through Ashland and
the addition of the new trains on the
16th will be a welcome relief to the
hard-worked trainmen. It will, how
ever, throw additional duties on the
yard forces.
C. J. Mast, former telegraph oper
ator at this station, and who for a
time acted as ticket agent at the
motor depot, has been promoted to
a position as car distributor on the
Portland division with headquarters
at Roseburg. He left for hls':new
station last week. ' '
No. 16 Sunday was one of the
heaviest trains yet of the heavy expo
sition travel. There were nine stand
ard Pullman cars besides two diners
and the express and mail cars on the
first section. Three tourists, bag
gage, day. coaches and a private car
made up the second section.
Hand Dance.
Over one hundred couples attended
the dance given at the armory last
Friday, evening under the auspices
of the Ashland band. A monster or
chestra furnished music which was
greatly appreciated not only by the
dancers but by a large number of
spectators. Many out of town people
attended, among them being Messrs.
Harvey Ling, Alexander and Fridiger
of Medford, Messrs. Frank. Ross,
James Ross, Guy Owen, John Cowley,
Iral Stewart, Merrltt Varnett, Earl
Openchln, Frank McGee and Misses
Stearns, Smith, Schiever and Rodgers
of Central Point.

Portland field division of the general
land office, but says his ideas for land
law revision are personal and not
those of the federal office.

Weary of doing nothing and with
time hanslng heavy on their hands,
the class of 1915 seek the country,
and at the Invitation of one of their
number, Miss Bessie HonieB, spent an
enjoyable afternoon and evening at
the family home on Emigrant creek,
where Beanie's father Is manager of
the ranch belonging to Lewis & Co.
of San Francisco. At 3 o'clock the

reached their destination after more
than an hour of unceasing fun.

"Sari" Carries Itg Own Orchestra.
The keystone of every production
of operetta is the orchestra, a fact
which Henry W. Savage never for
gets. Every musical production that
he sends out carries its own orches
tra and leader. The music must be
played spiritedly and accurately or
the effect Is lost. If the music Is
slurred and slighted, the principals
and chorus are upset and an uneven
performance Is given. That Is why
Mr. Savage always sends a carefully
trained orchestra and an experienced
leader with every musical production
he puts out. and why his productions
are always eagerly looked forward to
by-the public and do a big business.
"Sari," the sensational operetta
success which Mr. Savage offers at
the Vlnlng Theatre June 24. has mu
sic of a high quality, sparkling, joy
ous, piquant, rising to grand opera
heights in the big numbers, yet al
ways comprehensible and charming
to the untrained ear, and a large or
chestra Is carried to play It. Besides
his many light opera productions, Mr.
Savage was the original producer of
grand opera In English In this coun
try and the orchestra for either sort
receives his personal attention.
"Sari" will be seen here with Mizzl
Hajos and the rest of the original
New York cast.

law he believes should be enacted to
cover disposition of non-timbered ag
ricultural lands. The 640-acre home
stead under tihs suggested law must
be valuable chiefly for grazing pur
poses, and must not have more than
160 acres of tillable land Interspersed
throughout It. The entryman would
W required to utilize the pasture by
grazing of his own stock, and to
demonstrate good faith by cultivating
as much of the entry as was tillable.
Annual proofs would be required and
cancellation for delinquency strictly
enforced.
"If this were done, the homestead

most broken and arid localities, to
raise feed to support during the win

talned during the balance of the sea
son on the grazing portion of his 646
acres," said Mr. Sharp.
"In dry farming and grazing locali
ties such as will be found In eastern
Oregon, 640 acres of grazing land Is
no greater in value than 80 acres of
agricultural land In the western part
of the state. Entries of 640 acres
should be permitted.
