The Lithia Water
During the last few days the Tidings has been
approached repeatedly as to our attitude on the
controversy that is going on over the proposed lo
cation of the Lithia water in the Plaza. While wr
presume it is a newspaper’s'duty to take a stand
on those things that affect the city as a who|e, w
are very frank to admit that we do not care par
ticularly as to the loeatioif of the Lithia water. We
admit that there are valuable arguments on both
sides but we »s a newspaper confess that we ape not
competent to judge which would be the best,
<We do feel however, that a lot of energy, argu
ments and time ip being spent upon a proposition,
that is not deserving of this interest. We feel that
when there are problems that concern the future
prosperity of every business institution, every prop
erty owner, and every individual in Ashland, wait
ing to be solved, we should not waste our time and
energy upon details, but should present a united
front in working out those things that mean so much
to all of us.
We am rofering particularly to the poultry in
dustry when we say there are problems that mean
prosperity to every one. Here at our door step we t
have what is acknowledged to be the best natural
climate on the coast for the raising of poultry. We
have men who are making a success of this business
right in our very midst. If there was a concerted
action on the part of the entire community to proper
ly develop this industry, «many new people could
find this a profitable place to live. A daily payroll
, would be created, merchants would have more pros
pective customers, and imJidently the Tidings could
have more subscribers, and would become a larger

-----
Why not get together aud settle the Lithia
water controversy without the feeling that is liable
to become a part of thia scrap, then forget about
it until the proper time comes to properly exploit
the Lithia water. When that time comes go at the
job as a whole and not waste time upon the details,
and in the meantime lost we forget, we have a ver
itable “ acre of diamonds” at our very door step,
just waiting the necessary shove on our part to
put it over.
L
The Normal School Athletics
It is with increasing interest that we pote the
success being attained by the Normal school basket
ball team. Regardless of what might be our per
sonal feelings regarding athletics as a part oi a
school system, there can be no doubt as to its value
in attracting students. A good athletic team will
do more to advertise a school than any other method
that may be adopted. .
The suppprt that the team is receiving however
is a disappointment. Nofcto the school authorities,
for we are not in a position to comment upon their
feeling in the matter, but with a team that is a
oonsistnnt wjnner, that is able to adapt themselves
to any competition, and above all composed largely
of local boys, it ’s hard to understand why ther;e
are not more local people attending the games. It
i s a known fact that with the exception of one gamp,
money has been lost on every basketball game
played this season.
Local people would do well to attend these
games, they will be making a double investment, for
first there will be the entertainment provided, and
second, by the proper support of athletics, this phase
of the Normal school’s activities can be enlarged
upon, and there will result a larger aud stronger
institution.

The secretary of the chamber of commerce in
Orange, N. J., urges that a publicity man be ap
pointed to herald the need« of the firemen whose
deeds “ are not sufficiently appreciated.” Now we
can expect to see the headline: “ Fireihen periled in
rubbish blaze.”

pianos and eight phonographs.
Senator or no, Frank L. Smith ran a ball buun

If the radio keeps growing in popularity as it
