By 1RWANDA BATEMAN A concerted effort toward the preservation of music ami other arts as a vital community force ical assets, the music week is to i the main objective of the twelfth annual National Music week, to, be celebrated May 5 to 11. In conserving of the local nms-. ical assets, the music week it to focus interest in such matters as keeping up the standard of music instruction in the schools despit«' lessened finances; the obtaining of , necessary instruments or other e- j quipment for school work: an agi tation either of the need for a1 music supervisor in the schools-- where there is none—or of more ' music instructors; and the forma-j tion of a special chorus of «church choir singers which may function after music week as a permanent i choral society. The music week concerts are ■ not to be mere musical events, but are to be preceded by original musical research, later embodied in programs illustrationg, for exam ple, music in its relation to other arts, such as literature, the drama, the dance, the cinema and radio. Similarly the music week pro grams are to set forth the part played by music in world history, in religion, as an aid to work and in leisure time. The first movement of national music week was set by Calvin Coolidge. More than 2000 cities and towns are expected to participate in the music week May 5 to 11, which is sponsored by a national committee, composed of the heads of nearly 30 leading national organizations and by an honorary committee of Governors, headed by President Roosevelt. Wimer 3-C’s Busy Building 75 Miles Truck Trails, Lines CAMP WIMER — (Special)— Dustin A. Dalrymple of Jackson ville became a leader in this Med ford district CCC camp when the new ratings were announced here this week. Dalrymple was recently assigned to this company from a- mong the newiy enrolled members. Other Jacksonville boys now with this company are Walter Ander son, Merritt Beard. Clifton Chil ders. Albert Johnson, Lewis Meek, and Lloyd Norman. Camp Wimer, a state ECW forestry camp, is located 11 miles north of Rogue River. Company 964. stationed at Wimer, are engaged in building 75 miles of truck trails and tele phone lines which will connect Sexton Mt., King Mt., and Battle Mt. lookout stations with Medford as a nerve center. When the sys tem is complete in 1936. four north Jackson county townships will be brought under the fire protection of state forester Lynn F. Crone miller. When a fire is discovered by a lookout on one of the three mountains, it will be reported im mediately by telephone to Medford, Rogue River and Grants Pass from which points flying squad rons of trucks and men can im mediately dash to the scene of the fire. Tom Hudson has a remarkable cane. It is made of sections of cows' horns of contrasting shades strung on a spring steel rod and turned down and polished. It is a thing of beauty and was given to Tom by Jesse H. Jones, head of the RFC, when Tom worked for that gentleman over a quarter of a century ago in Dallas, Texas. It reminded the writer of Jie Waupun cane popular in Wiscon sin half a century ago. These canes were made of washers of sole leather forced on a steel rod and turned down. The head was of cop per loaded with lead. They were so named because the guards at Waupun penitentiary used them as weapons. The writer’s brother-in-law has a cane which is made of the jaw bone of a whale with a whale’s tooth for a head. It was made by his great grandfather, a whaler captain sailing out of Boston a century or more ago. ----------- •------------ Miner Plant Prints 7th District News ASHLAND GROCETERIA ASHLAND HEADQUARTERS FOR FISHER FLOURING MILLS PRODUCTS Fisher’s Fisher’s Fisher’s Fisher’s Blend Flour SigiSt $1.99 Biscuit Mix 29c Handysacks, all kinds, 15c Pancake Flour, 10’s •* * 43c Biscuits ■) --------- For the sixth consecutive month, commercial printing department of the Southern Oregon Miner pro duced 6000 copies of the Medford District News, monthly 3-C pub lication edited by Lieut Roy D.
