T he J acksonville M iner MINER’S ACE REPORTER Crowds Attend Candidate Dance Taking advantage of the oppor tunity offered them to gain the favor of the voters, about 20 can didates attended the grange dance given in their honor at Applegate Saturday night. Over an hour in the fore part of the evening before dancing lx gr.n was devoted to a brief talk by candidates. Among the last called upon to speak was H. W. Conger, who appropriately handled the situation by rema ring, “I don’t know why, but I’m always called at the last.”’ Among the candidates present were Mrs. Susanne Homes Carter, Mrs. Delila Stevens Meyer, C. B. Lambkin, C. M. Thomas, H. W. Con ger, Earl Fehl, R. G. Jennings, Ev erett Beeson, Charles Stacey, Wil liam Carl, Mr. Morris, L. M. Sweet and J. B. Coleman. Every office seeker who came to the dance to explain his views and make acquaintances delbierately lost the support of at least one youthful voter, however, because the midget cs;mpaign prohibited dancing until 10:15. The dance was attended by a large crowd and will be followed by another grange dance Saturday, April 16. The grange is sponsoring a series of dances to offset ex penses on hall improvements.

Pete Sisters, Doctor & Gamble, The Plainolive Co., Wm. TTalk & Co., and Cheapso were named as perpetrators of the shameful scheme to dupe helpless women out of penny-jar proceeds. Their plan is, as revealed by Halftruth, to force legislation fori mure and longer Saturday nights i and bluer Mondays. They propose, through lobbyists, to compel the making of laws requiring one day j in each week: Saturday night and Monday, the day of rubs and suds.

Biology students of Jacksonville high school, under the leadership of W. J. Nee, instructor, spent a part of Tuesday forenoon in the out skirts of town collecting specimens of the many varieties of wood found in southern Oregon. The exhibits will be completed, mounted and labeled by the class as one of its regular projects for the year. .Another popular project with the students concentrates on study of bird life, notes and observations on species common in this district and severul field expeditions to famil iarize themselves with habits of the tiny residents. Some clear morning in the near future it is planned by the students and Mr. Nee to arise with the sun, make a pilgrimage to some secluded spot where they may observe, undisturbed, early morn ing habits of the winged creatures while whetting appetites for break fast, which will be included as part of their hiking equipment. This be fore-school picnic will be but one of several delights of science classes and no doubt will be the cause of much early rising soon. Health classes of the high school have started making collection of old cure-alls and patent nostrums rampant before passing of the pure food and drug act. Mr. Nee asked that ail who might ha\e some relic of the days when concoctions were guaranteed to remove warts, cure lumbago, eradicate dandruff, make two hairs grow where one grew be fore, soothe rheumatism, mend broken legs and stop hacking coughs contribute either labels or bottles to one of the students in terested in the project. .Many old medicine chests, he said, might be supplied with banner exhibits and any help in this work would be ap- i predated.
