Please Don't Crow, Mr. Rooster.
Medford cttizens are getting out a
petition asking the Medford city coun
cil to pass an ordinance prohibiting
roosters from crowing. Agitation
against the ultra-extensive use of
whistles In . the Medford city limits
by Southern Pacific engineers result
ed In a curbing of that evil some time
ago, and if Medford can stop en
gineers from whistling, the rooster
problem should present no serious
difficulties.
to Mr. Piper's own story, the turkey
hatched glass eggs and all, the glass
producing a bottle of moonshine
whiskey and a corkscrew.
Mr. Piper has secured Hank Yan
cey to vouch for the story, but so far
no one has vouched for Hank.
The turkey is not for sale.

The Difference.
A radical Is a man who trades his
straw hat on the first of May. A con
servative waits until the day before
the Fourth of July, wires the weather
bureau and demands a surety bond
against a rainstorm from the dealer
before buying one. The ordinary
man wears his last year's straw when
ever the sun shines after the 13th of
March.
The First Paper An Exclusive His
torical Item.
When Adam's Eve began to do the
housekeeping for Adam, she bad no
cares such as pursue the modern
Adam's madam. She did not know
what was the rage, because there was
no Woman's Page.
She did not get a Dally Hint from
S Paris full of passion to start her on
a daily sprint to keep up with the
fashion. She did not haunt the beau
ty stores in order to keep open pores.
When Adam capered home at night
(he was no wearied plodder!) he did
not shiver lest he might be served
with curious fodder. There were no
papers, so you see there was no
Household Recipe.
Old Adam was a happy bloke and
lived a life most cheery. He did not
know that he would choke some day
with his bacteria. Adam and Eve had
never read Health Articles to scare
them dead.
Eve never went through Adam's
breeks when he was sweetly dream
Ing, because there were no Bargain
Weeks to tempt her to such schem
ing. The serpent thought she was a
goose. She was too good for any use,
The serpent was a clever brute,
Though he'd not been through col
lege, his sanctum made him mighty
cute. It was the Tree of Knowledge.
"Aha!" he said, "I'll publish, free,
The Dally Eden Apple Tree!"
The first edition raised a row
whose scandal shocked creation.
Since that first Issue Adam's brow
is wet with perspiration. It told the
scandal, rich and rare, that Eve had
not a thing to wear!

Medford Tribune: As William
Waldorf Ussher sauntered down the
pike at the street carnival yesterday
afternoon he got along without un
toward incident until the operator of
the big gasoline calliope began to
play "Hail to the Chief," whereat our
William was suddenly seized with an
Inspiration. When the applause
' ceased, be insisted on performing the
encore, giving the multitude an elab
orate recital of the "Rugbughug," a
symposium' in three reels. As a bit
of impromptu ragtime it beal- the
band on the merry-go-round. In the
tumultuous hubbub that followed,
Willie escaped.

THE FLAVOR OF
"SPEAR HEAD"
JSUIIIQUE
A Chew That Has Been Famous for
a Third of a Century
HAS THE RICH RED BURLEY TASTE
Chewing is the only way to get the
rich taste of the tobacco leaf. And
the only form of tobacco in which you
get the leaf as Nature made it is the
plug form.
A chew of Spear Head plug tobacco
has a wonderful flavor such as you
never did and never will taste in any
other tobacco.
That Spear Head flavor is unique,
mellow, fruity, everlastingly delicious
end satisfying.
Spear Head has been famous for a
third of a century as the richest, tasti
est of chews.
It's made of sun-ripened, red Bur
ley. And it's produced by the most
modern methods, which develop the
luscious flavor of the leaf to the su
preme degree. '
It is safeguarded at every step in its
making. The factory i: clean and san
itarythe processes are pure-food pro
cesses. When the choice red Burley has been
pressed into mellow, sweet Spear Head
plugs you have a chew that simply can't
be equalled.
Spear Head is the high quality
chew of the world.
Try Spear Head you'll never
again be satisfied with any other
chew. In 10c cuts, wrapped in wax
paper.

very favorably received.

There Is talk of a picnic dinner for
the last' day of school, and some
field sports, both of which sound
about right to us. Of course, we
could make graduating orations, if we
wanted to, and have a regular good
time, but we'd lots rather do this
other. Suppose It's Just the nature
of the animal that makes this so.
Miss Mabel Moore is conducting
the eighth grade final examinations,
Two young ladles, friends of Miss
Skeen, spent the day with us Thurg'
day. We enjoyed their visit and hope
they enjoyed it as well.
Our senior class exhibits signs of
nervousness the last two days. There
is a reason.
The following pupils were1 neither
late nor absent last month: Lila
Harden, Lova Buchanan. Bernice
Kenyon, Emmet Harden, Albert Eske,
Earl Brown, Wilbur Beagle, Frank
Harden, Edgar Buchanan, Bernice
Kelts, Kee Buchanan, Ruth Eske,
Gladys Kenyon, Katie Buchanan and
Aletha Gray.
C. A. Brown is able to be back in
the field at work, but is not wholly
recovered from his recent illness.
If the Belleview school fails to get
a certificate as a standard school, It
Is going to be on account of irregular
attendance. A few parents seem to
fall to realize the importance of send
ing their children every day when it
is possible for them to come. 'We
know positively of cases of tardiness
and absences that could have been
avoided. We as teachers will take
our share of the blame, and say if we
were able to make the school of suf
ficient interest, every child would be
here every day possible. Of course,
too, sickness and other unavoidable
causes have contributed to the delin
quent list.
Mrs. Buchanan visited school Fri
day, afternoon.
Mr. and Mrs. Bert Dennis visited
at the home of A. D. Moore Wednes

Sailor Bailey and wife are the
