“ Ashland is to be congratulated
upon its small number of fires.” C.
A. Lee state fire marshall told the
assemblage at the Chamber o f Com­
merce luncheon in the Lithia Springs
Hotel today, “ in the last 80 days,
there has been but one call. Such
efficiency is what makes the fire
marshall feel good,” he added.
Mr. Lee outlined the purpose of
the state-wide tour o f fire chiefs
partly as a plan to educate the pub­
lic in fire drill technique, by showing
through public demonstrations, just
what part citizens must take in the
prevention of loss o f life which, after
all, Mr. Lee explained, is the main
purpose of a fire department. The
chiefs, he said, were enthusiastic to
make the tour, in order that they
might inspect the apparatus and local
conditions which prevail in other
towns o f Oregon. .
A move is being promoted to estab
lish the use of salvage covers, as a
means o f protecting stock endanger­
ed by fire and water, Mr. Lee stated.
These covers consist o f a large piece
o f waterproof canvass which would
be carried on the fire truck and at
the time o f a fire placed over valu­
able goods, thus protecting them
from damage. With this end in view,
Mr. Lee made a trip into many o f the
eastern states recently.
Ten firemen, consisting o f several
fire chiefs from various cities in the
state are accompaning Mr. Lee on
the tour. The delegation started from
Salem, and will leave here for Marsh­
field.

Large Granite Contract
The task o f supplying one nine-

j smaller size for an $8,000 mausol­
eum to be erected by private intrr-
' ests in Portland, has fallen to the
j Blair Granite Co., according to Wal-

I stones.
SPECIAL FEATURE
Alumni Day at the Southern Ore­
gon Normal School on June 11, will
be featured by a collection o f old
class rolls, photographs, annuals,
newspapers and other interesting
momentoes o f the old Normal school.
The articles for the exhibit are being
contributed by various members of
the school.
The program which has been ar­
ranged by the reception committee
calls for a gathering o f the Alumni
and their families at the old normal
school grounds in the morning for a
“ reminiscence feast” and a basket
lunch. During the luncheon short
talks will be made by several o f the
“ Alums.” and there is also promise
o f music. At 2:30 a more formal
program will be presented in the
auditorium o f the Normal school.
A pageant and music festival will
conclude the day’s festivities. This
will be held in Lithia Park at 8:30
P. M., and all alumni and friends of
the school are invited.
According to Mr. Blair, a new
quarty, several hundred feet higher
than the old one, has been chared
for this job. Mr. Blair believes tfcat
the granite at the Neil Creek quarry
is the finest to be found in the world,
and is the only granite that compares
in quality with the famous Barry,
Vermont stone. New machinery is
needed badly, he claims, in order to
support capacity production.
