In a slump year with many idle workers and with much ag- aspersions a n d insinuations written, n o all the vices that Mr. Banks tells of, in ricultural products bringing smaller returns and the gen doubt to lead the readers to t h e belief his articles, we fail to find where he has era mental attitude of the people being more or less de that some U.

To many who viewed this spectacle that was all that mattered but that was not the reason why Medford invited the people of all southern Oregon to their fete. They wished to ac quaint the people with their advancement along the lines of aviation and truly they have worked wonders there. Their municipal air port is one to be proud of. If is the work of the dreamers of Medford—the men and women of vision who had a mental picture of what southern Oregon needed in the way of accomodations for aerial vehicles and they went out and provided those ac comodations. It was this progressive spirit which Med ford wanted to show to the rest of the people of south ern Oregon and we feel that all who attended the show were able to congratulate the “Pear City” upon the ef fort it has shown in aeronautical advancement.
