The Benefit Dance
Ashland is a baseball town. There are many
enthusiastic supporters of the local baseball team
and every eitiseh in town must get a thrill of pride
at the splendid sportsmanship and the winning
ability which the Ashland Nine has made this year.
Such. enterprises are frequently however, ndt
as successful financially as a business enterprise,
personally conducted might be, But the players
generously give their time and effort and talent,
believeing that the community must recognise the
value of clean, wholesome community sport
So the benefit dance, the proceeds to be devoted
to the support of the ball club, has been arranged
and every citizen of Ashland should get back of the
boys and show them that the community spirit which
is backing every whorthwhile community enterprise
is backing them.
Why College?
“ Forget you ever went to college” is the
bXvice handed the technical school graduates of the
National Industrial Conference Board after con­
ducting a questionnaire on the subject of the. college
in industry.
■
Employers who replied to the board’s inquiries
said the college graduate is all right but—well, he
didn’t learn everything in school. The college docs
not teach him how to handle a gang of men. It
does not instruct him in knowing less than the boss.
It does not teach him to be an executive in a big
and complicated business.
‘
It gives him a lot of theory, employers said, but
it doe# not present him with much experience and
experience counts for a great deal on the job.
College lays the foundation. The superstructure
the graduate must build for himself. He may start
at the roof and. go down but if wise he will ray the
ground floor well.

Natural Playground
There seems to be found everywhere about Ash­
land these days dan awakening to the* possibilities
of the plaee as a playground. Every type of sport is
finding unusual interest displayed by the community,
and there is a willingness on the part of the com­
munity to back all enterprises.
And this is aa it should be.
To he sure we can say “ Have you been to Cratef
la k e , or Dimond Lake, or the Lake of the Woods,
or the Oregon Oaves,” but Ashland wants a group
*of closer home playgrounds and she seems to be des­
tined to get them.
With the addition of every type of vacation at­
traction Ashland will become more and more sought
after by those who seek natural rather than arti­
ficial surroundings and beauty.
