FOR RENT
FURNISHED HOUSE FOR RENT
WITH USE OF PIANO" I wanted
a furnished house of six rooms. I
could not use five and I did not
want eight. Six rooms was what
I wanted, and here was an ad In
the newspaper: "Furnished house
for rent with use of piano." But
tow many rooms? If this house
was six rooms, then the advertise
ment lost half of its efficiency be
cause it did not read "Six-room
t urulshed house to rent wtlh use of
, rlano." Was the house modern?
The ad did not tell it. If so, why
lld not the ad read "Sis-room mod
rn furnished house for rent with
" wse of piano"? It would have been
Just as easy. Then was the house
Just furnished, or "well fur
nished"? If so, then why not this
aid: "Well furnished six room
modern house with use of piano"?
1 did not have an automobile and
wanted close In. This ad did not
tell me that, so Instead of answer
ing It I waited till I came to town.
A real estate agent got hold of me
and rented me another house.
Later I discovered the one adver
tised would have suited me better.
It was a "we'l-furnlshed, six-room,
modern house', close in, with use
of piano." Why didn't the ad say
so and got the tenant?

Medford Bonding
Plan Is Illegal
The supreme court, by a unanl
mous opinion rendered inureaay,
knocks out the so-called Hanson re
bonding plan fpr Medford and holds
that the Bancroft act is valid and, as
the street improvements of that city
were ordered and laid under the pro
visions of that act, those provisions
must be followed In the payment of
the assessments therefor.
Medford paving assessments are
largely still outstanding. In an ef
fort to clean up Its Indebtedness and
get the city finances In ship-shape,
the city council employed Colonel
Hanson of Seattle to canvass the sit
uation and devise a plan that was at
the same time workable and as fair
as possible to all concerned. His
plan was adopted by a vote of the
i ""'" i-
standing paving Improvement bonds;.
This act Is the one declared illegal,
which probably means that the prop
erty owners will be called upon to
pay their original assessments In
The boy who won't study Latin
because It won't help htm get the
money to buy a six-cylinder car Is
quite likely to be the one later who
walks because he hasn't enough mon
ey to ride In the trolley.
Merchants who run a standing ad
telling about lawnmowers In winter
and heaters In summer are some
times the same ones who complain
that advertising doesn't pay.

are very satisfactory In the cattle
market, and while the supply ls im
