Virginia Hardy hh Hiii'bara Worth.
Among the most successful attrac
tions of the past two? seasons Is the
dramatization by Mark Swan of Har
old Bell Wright's "The Winning of i
Barbara Worth." It was not an easy
matter to select an actress possess -

ca, of WMtern Amorlca but , MM
! . . ,
. Vjrglnla Haray tne producer louna
a young lady that plays Barbara as
the ' author would have played it.
i Miss Hardy's conception of the char
'shall be the abiding place of thou-
j sands of prosperous people, the home j
I of prosperous men and women, i
whose children shall grow up amid
me wonucrs ot nature, wnoiesome
and strong.
( Harold Bell Wright drew a won-
derful woman in his imagination . ,,elng ,)ulltj the aderslto formation.
when he pictured Barbara Worth an .wn)cn ig the oldesj rock formation
j ideal woman, and Miss Hardy brings ; known ,n gcoi0gy, crosses the Klara
into play all her histrionic art in ath river, and as a preparatory meas
portraying the character as the ure and in or(ter t0 determine that
author created it. She Is fascinated
with the part, because Barbara
stands for strong, clean and whole -
! some womanhood. She is a daugh-
Iter of the west; a woman well worth
winning; such a woman in olden
times men battled for. Wright said
of her: "There was something about
the girl on the quick-stepping, spirit
ed horse that challenged attention.
The khaki-clad figure was so richly
ailve there was such a wealth of
vitality; such an abundance of young

That's what the author
said of her and that Is what Miss
I Hardy makes of the character. She
has come up to the expectations of !
the author in such an exacting man- j
er that he said Good. To make j
everywhere this success has been '
; presented that have made just the
Jsame remark. Miss Hardy comes to
i Ashland as Barbara Worth with a
strong supporting cast next Monday.
Remember that this Is not a mo
tion picture, but a road show of the
highest class.

Consolation. ,
Medford Mall Tribune: The vic
tory of Medford in the football game
with Ashland Thanksgiving day may
be attributed to the work of Coach
Otto Klum of the local high school.
In the matter of material in the raw,
Ashland had, at the first of the
season, a little the better of Medford.
As the season progressed, Klum,
through consistent hard work, put
his men into the best of condition
and imparted a surety and smootlr
ness to their play such as is seldom
seen in the teams of any but ' the j
largest city high schools. Klum was
formerly coach of the Ashland team
and under his tutelage the Ashland
aggregation easily walked away from
Medford. With the coming to Med
ford of Klum the tables have been
reversed.

Thirty-five miles from the city of

Oregon Power Company purchased
the old road of the Pokegama Lum

nection with the Southern Pacific at
Thrall, thirteen miles down the river
from where the dam is being con
structed, and by building a spur from
this branch railroad train "loads of
material are delivered directly at the
construction works.
A very interesting problem is being
'S0ved by the use of volcanic cinders
t0 gupply the necessary gand cement
in the concrete work. For a long
time the company engineers were
baffled by being brought face to face
with a condition that no sand in suf
ficient quantities existed in the
neighborhood where the dam was to
be built, but after a series of tests,
both by the company's chemists and
those of the university, it was ascer
tained that the volcanic cinders con
tained in. a cone nearby substituted
perfectly for sand and made an ideal
concrete mixture, and as a result of
this fortunate discovery a great ex
cavation can be seen in the mountain
side, where acres are taken away of
this volcanic material to the mixers
above the works.
First Snow oi
Winter Tuesday
The first snow of the winter fell
in a brief flurry Tuesday afternoon
after the wind had piled up the
snow clouds in the north. The storm
lasted but a few minutes and was
softened by the sunshine which fol-
lowed.
Wednesday morning the ground
was covered with a white mantle
which melted as the sun arose. The
hills about are covered with snow
and a foot and a half is reported
from Siskiyou.

Have you visited the exhibit of
children's books at the library? It
will be open all this week and at
tendants will give advise on the pur
chase of children's books. The ex
hibit comes as the result of a nation
wide "Good Books Week."
, The movement Inaugurated last
year for better books for children
will be observed this season Decern-
ber 4 to December 9. . !
"Good Books Week" originated
through the Boy Scouts of America j
and at the annual meeting of the
American Booksellers' Association In ,
1915 the followlnc resolution was'
passed:
"Resolved, That the association
approve the suggestion of the Boy
Scouts of America for a country-wide
canvass rnr better books for children,
both by the co operation of a special
week In November and by an offer
on our part to raise the standard of
children's reading, as offered by our
stores and by the publishers."
Later the plan was commended by
the American Library Association,
and last year good results were
achieved through "Juvenile Book
Wfielt." It Wflfi aiinnm'tn.t Uv n rnm.
. , . .. '
i ber of Itading magazines. An edl-
torial In the Saturday Evening Post
stated so well the problem of the
modern boy's reading tha'. it is worth
while to quote a few sentences:
"What a boy reads is as important
as anything else about him. You try
to protect him from depraved asso
ciations of flesh and blood, but pret
ty often you make little enough ef
fort to protect him from depraved
associations In print.
"Time was when you could tell a
wrong book for a boy because it was
bound in yellow paper and sold for
a dime. Nowadays many wrong
books for boys are most respectably
bound in cloth. And they are per
fectly nnral, in the narrowest sense
of that abused word. They describe
how a fourteen-year-old boy, with a
leaky wash-boiler and two dollars In
cash, built a submarine that destroy
ed the enemy's fleet; how a lad in
knee breeches circumvented a gang
of desperate criminals and so be
came president of a railroad at six
teen. "These tales of preposterous Ju
venile achievement are depraved be
cause they are monstrous lies. They
do not stimulate a boy's imagination;
they drug it. They do not set his
imagination usefully at work, but
send it off in a weird opium dream.
They arj a sort of psychological
whiskey drinking."
