Portland and North Bend extended invitations to the Oregon association of realty boards for 1938 at the close of their convention in Eugene last week. V. D.

Last week, Katbu-ine becaiite the mother of four little kittens causing Twig to go on a hunger strike and begin to fret—a veterinary was called and diagnosed the trouble as “longing for a family of her own.” Twig solved the problem by moving in on Katharine's family, starting to nurse and cure for the little kittens. Katharine didn't think so much of this arrangement so now Twig has two of the kittens to feed and the mother cat nurses the two others.

Martin and in Ashland by May or T. S. Wiley, and the various churches of the city are extending a special invitation to everyone to attend a church of their choice on that day. Following is the invitational proclamation issued by the Ash- land Ministerial association: "The greatest institution in Ash- land is not that of the oil com- panies, the merchants nor the bankers It is the Christian church. She is greater than any of them, or all combined. "The Christian church is the mother of all democracies, philan thropies. modem civilization, arts and sciences. She has withstood the shock of falling empires and dissolution of governments. She is older than any government. She commands the services of more volunteer and paid workers than any other institution.

The machine, recently perfected by Harry S. Hill of Portland, is electrically powered and is equip ped with a variety of special drills and cutting tools. It is the only one of its kind in this section. Drilling holes for looseleaf forms, filing case records and spe cial forms is accomplished rapidly with rotary drills which produce a more accurate, cleaner job than old-fashioned punches which crum ple edges of holes and are slow. Another device included with the installation is a special knife which notches v-slotted holes in loose leaf sheets and file cards enabling them to be extracted from holders without removal of sheets above or below. By adjustment of another tool, corners of tickets, cards and ledg er sheets may be rounded to pre vent "dog-earing” and to enhance attractiveness of the finished ar ticle. Reversing the knife enables the operator to finish programs and other work with a scalloped edge. Besides offering improved work. ' the machine is faster than old methods and will enable the Miner to present better service on all types of special forms requiring drilling, slotting or round-corner ing. ACCORDING to a recent statement by R. E. Det rick, park board member, Mrs. Carl S. Stuart of .Medford has presented a young blacktail buck to Lithia park to replace the one which was poisoned some time ago. Detrick expressed the city’s apprec iation fos the donation, a striking contrast to the act of the "meanest man on earth" which caused the loss of the city's former pet. Signs erected bj the park board now prohibit any feeding of ani mals in Lithia park zoo by the public to prevent further deaths. The new deer was caught w hen a young fawn and will introduce new blood into the park herd .all of which were bom captives. ----- •----- Yreka Drops Ashland Juniors Under Arcs IN DEPARTMENT "ALTHOUGH figures are sub- stantially the same in reports of several departments which I have scanned, it appears from pre liminary examination that the city budget may be leasened somewhat for 1938,” City Recorder J. Q. Adams said yesterday. A special meeting of the council will be held this evening for dis cussion of appropriations asked by department heads, and the citi zens' budget committee appointed recently by Mayor T. S. Wiley will be asked to meet with the council in the near future, probably at the regular meeting Tuesday night if city dads are able to complete their work tonight, to give their approval. In the event that the council requires more time in their considerations, they will use the regular meeting time and the citi zens' group will be asked to meet with them Wednesday, Adams said. Members of the appointed com mittee are E. N. Butler, George W. Dunn, J. H. Hardy, Frank Jor dan, W. F Knox and Fred Tayler. Following the deliberations by the joint meeting the figures will be published, probably within the next two weeks, and an open meet ing will be held so that taxpayers may suggest deductions or addi tions on the council’s statistics. It was indicated by councilmen, despite Adams' statement, that some salary increase requests may cause considerable discussion at tonight's meeting. It is understood that Elmer Biegel, city superin tendent. will bid for pay raises for all employes under his direction. Another matter to be considered J is the tentative figure of $520 to pay city band members, fostered by O. F. Carson at last Tuesday’s meeting. Director Ward Croft at present receives a salary of $480 per annum for his services in con ducting the organization. It is considered unlikely that an appropriation will get on the orig inal record for the construction of a new fire station as previously discussed. According to Council man Dr W. J. Crandall, the town fathers feel that need for $3,000 worth of new fire fighting equip- , ment is necessary and probably . would get a favorable vote, but ’ he also stated that the council is reluctant to okay such an outlay for the present location which, it is generaly admitted, is inade quate. Buildings, hospital and relief are the only funds which are over drawn on the present budget, which is running only slightly in excess of the named expenditures for approximately two-third of , 1937.
