REAL THRIFT The government through its cam paign to encourage popular savings In thrift and war savings stamps, has brought the word. "thrift" into commoner usage than ever. One hears it on every hand. Yet how many people who use it realize that ( thrift is a' preliminary 'process and entirely distinct from saving? The thrifty person is not the one who puts 25 cents into a thrift stamp which should be put into a pair of new shoe laces, or five dollars into a "W. S. S. which should be set aside that week for meat. Thrift only paves the way for sav ing. It considers carefully present needs and future possibilities and decides what are necessary expenses, setting aside such a portion of the Income as will provide for them. It also determines what are unneces sary expenses, and stops the outgo of money for them. That is not thrift which neglects either prooess, nor can there he any security in savin gs when either is neglected. The essential item of ex penditure, temporarily ignored, will have to toe met finally, probably 'by taking from the savings what should never have been put there. The un necessary expenditure oft repeated means no savings at all. Thrift holds the scale between the two, and upon the nicety with which a balance is maintained 'between le gitimate expenditure and waste will depend 'present comfort and future prosperity Bootleggers beware! Governor Olcott has appointed Frank Hopkins, the "Shooting Deputy" of Canyon vilie, to run down smugglers of liquor. While Hopkins Is accused by some of being too sudden on the hair-trigger, nevertheless he gener ally brings back the man he goes af ter. There is sure to be trouble for someone. Rogue River salmon fishermen are getting a fancy price for their catch trot they deserve It. If you don't think so, Just get into a small boat and glide down the stream on a dark night. It isn't everyone that can shoot the rapids safely wlille hand' ling a net, and' dodge all the whirl pools and snags.

KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY: Quality First to. stop whils he leisurely passes out of the way? The closing of the highway be tween Glendale and Riddle was Just a email samp'le of government own ership. Thank goodness autolsts can now at least glide past that place In the night Al Burleson, however. Is showing the, country a' genuine sample of government ownership. The Roseburg News states that the Umpqua Valley Fruit union has sent out 21 cars of Broccoli and the Independent shippers three more cars. We believe that record could be duplicated right here In the Rogue River Talley. It is about time to warn a temper ate nation once more against wood alcohol: Drink grain alcohol and you see double; drink wood alcohol and yon -won't see at all. It poisons the optic nerve and often brings, per manent blindness. Right now the highway commis sion appears to be the most popu lar commission in Oregon. But Just wait until you hear the howl go up from - those sections that were not lookeg upon with favor.' A dispatch says that autograph letters of Wood row Wilson were re cently auctioned in New York. One three-page letter brought $90. Won der if it was the appeal to the voters made last October? War may be all that Sherman said it was, but to Europeans peace doesn't seem to be exactly heaven. MEDFORD ELKS COME IN FORCE (Continued frenf page 1) "Howya Gonna Keep 'em Down on the Farm" and the monologue by Geo. T.

The song was entitled "Oh Death Where Is Thy Sting," and there were many Elks present who really believed there was no eting In death, if the song told the truth. Fol lowing this was a march song, "Dixie Military Ball" by Herbert Alfred, a speciality by Geo. T. Wilson, and an other speciality by Quisenberry and Jerome.

On Friday a dinner-conference was held for all who were working in that line, and was attended by 100 delegates. Experleneoa - and methods were explained as practiced In different chapters, and at the con clusion of the dinner Robert Max Garrett, director of Junior Red Cross ot this division, announced the awarding of four ot the 60 handker chiefs made by Serbian children and sent to national headquarters' as a gift to the Amorlcan. Rod Cross. Six thousands orphans, their leaders hav ing been killed-were rescued by members of the Red Cross and plac ed In an orphanage In Archangel; out of gratttudo for this rescue the gift was sent. The awards were made to the Junior Red Cross of the country, one handkerchief being sent to each state, and to Alaska and given to the Junior branch of the chapter In the state which had done the beet all round work dur ing the -war. The Oregon award was to Josephine county Junior Red Cross. The future of the Junior work was briefly outlined by Mr. Garrett as a general meeting of the conference as follows: Relief to sufforing children. Stimulation of community activi ties. Making friends with the children of the world. Developing the Idea of universal service. Of the dues ot 25c a year to be required In the future, 60 per cent will be used for the relief of suffer ing children abroad, and 40 per cent for home children who' may be suf fering.
