TELL THE WOULD ABOUT
SOUTHERN OREGON.
Southern Oregon cun learn val
uable lessons from this year's ac
tivity of the Pacific Northwest
Touring association. This great
association covering in its terri
tory the Pacific northwest of the
United States and British Colum
bia in Canada, has during 1320
carried out successfully an adver
tising campaign in which the
whole field was Impartially in
cluded. There was no hint of
favoritism to any section, there
was no taint of "toadying" to fi
nancially powerful or populous
districts to the disadvantage of
weaker noighbors. The reason Is
simple, In the fact that nowhere
is the many different pamphlets
published and distributed was
there a mention of n locality. All
advertising was general, but the
way was opened for more detailed
facts if tho first ir.terest prompt
ed It.
For years live business men ot
Southern Oregon have realized
that our chief need is some form
of concerted action by which the
attractions of the district, scenic
as well as practical, can be plac
ed before the rest cf the country.
Several attempts have been slutt
ed, but petty jealousies of local
ity have stood in the way of sue
cess each time, and to date no
such plan has been put into ef
fect. Each community has been
left to its futile un-alded efforts
which have been effectually nul.

It Is now suggested that If the
policy followed In previous at
tempts to advertise Southern Ore

inns made apparent, the way cun

era) advertising. Let there he 'no
mention of any town or city in
Southern Oregon, but settle on the
plan ot the Pacific Northwest
Touring association and advertise
what there is here, whether al
falfa fields or snow-capped moun
tains, whether lakes or caves,
whether hunting or fishing. Then
if the first audience is interested
let him look on his map and pick
out a town and write there for
further particulars, or let him
come here and survey tho whole
field.
California has demonstrated the
VHlue of development of constant
and big advertising. The Pacific
Northwest Touring association has
shown us the way we can do it.

LAKE OF THE WOODS About
August 32 (Special by Ouija

Finally. II .C. Stock, while fish

was explained. The carp seemed
unusually heavy. Stock cut it

ACER SUGGESTS ONE
CENTRAL BOARD FOR SCHOOLS
In an open letter addressed to
School Board Members of Jack
son county, County Superinten
dent of Schools G. W. Ager, whose
resignation takes effect Thursday
of this week, thanks all organiza
tions, individuals and agencies
who have co-operated with him;
highly endorses the apointment
of Miss Susanne Homes-to fill the
vacancy created by his reslgna
eu m buuchuuu
"In the bauds of my successor,
her principals, te.'.chers, assist
ants and school officers will be
left the future guidance of our
schools, so possibly suggestions are
unnecessary. However, I wish to
add a word relative to what seems
to be a trend In education in which
all ura vitally concerned. Our
school system is undergoing an
important und necessary change.
Advanced steps are being taken
from time to time, the process
seems slow, but the time should
not be far distant when the arbi
trary school boundary lines will
be entirely eliminated. The edu
cation of our boys and girls is a
matter of concern to the state -at
lift-go as well as to the individual,
who under present conditions can
not give It the attention it deserves
and which was formerly possible
and necessary. The management
ot school affairs, except possibly
certain community and civic
In-
! terests, should be in the hands of
a county board of about five mem
bers whose business it should be
to establish schools, erect build
ings, employ teachers, secure nec
essary supplies, etc.
"The little school district em
ploying one teacher and managed
by a local board did very well in
pioneer duys, but as an adminis
trative "Unit for school purposes
it has outlived Its usefulness. Re
cent consolidation ot schools in
many parts of our county is only
an indication of the increasing
demand for a more effectives chool
organization.
"The teacher situation looks
more fuvorable than it did a few
months ago. Nearly all schools
are now supplied with teachers.
Salaries have been increased about
50 per cent over those for last
year. As a result competent
teachers are being attracted. Con
siderable interest Is being shown
In an effort to bring our schools
up to a higher standard, and tak
ing all Into consideration, pros
pects seem bright for a very suc
cessful year."

MANY VISITING
THE MARBLE CAVES
Despite the fact that the roads
and trails to the Josephine caves
are hard traveling and hold out
small Inducement for the "tender
foot" to try them out, over 300
tourists have so far this season
visited the famous caverns. This
year It Is thought that the num
ber making the trip will surpass
the 900 mark of last season.
Many ot the tourUts are from
other states. Only 28 have made
the trip from Grants Pass this
year. Medford has found out that
the caves are In existence and 35
from that city have made the trip.
Some of the visitors were from
Alaska, a lai'gt) nuinBer irom Port
land and many from California.
A large number of other states
are also represented.
A complete register of all those
who made the trip during June
and July ot this year Is kept at the
Chamber ot Commerce and will
be shown to anyone wishing to
look at It. Grants Pass Courier.
ASHLAND COMES OUT AHEAD
IN WAGE AND RATE INCREASE
While a keen Interest Is being
taken here In the interviews com
ing over the wires to the Tidings
from various transportation ex
perts and economists; some claim-
ing that the railroad rate Increase
will cause a revelry of high prices;
others claiming prices will not be
materially affected;. Ashland has
a complacent feeling that it is
coining out on top of tbe heap in
the railroad wage and rate raise
matter.
For while prices will of course
rise in Ashland it they do else
where, Ashland's biggest payroll,
the Southern Pacific, will be In
creased by a sum by the wage
award which will more than off
set minor rises In prices so fur as
the average prosperity of the com-,
muntty is concerned.
Because ot the fuct that exact
data on the amounts ot wage in
creases have not reached the local
division point as yet, the exact
amount which the Ashland pay
roll will be Increased is not known.
That It will run Into an Increase
ot well over $10,000 a month
seems certain.
MA ROBBED THREE ,
TIMES IN ONE NIGHT
