S outhern O regon M iner Hie Paper That Has Something To Say—And Says It! ASHLAND, OREGON, FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 1938 MEDFORD ACES Registering Motorists to Cherries at «T MINERS Treated Ashland C of C Office HERE TONIGHT Number 25 AND THEN THE FI N BEGAN! All the good things of life are not always intentional, but never theless many of them are wel comed. At least, that wax the exper ience of the Ashland Chamber of Commerce personnel Wednesday evening The treat was on Mayor T. S Wiley, and this is why: Wiley, whose orchards are well known for fine quality fruit, had placed on display attractive boxes of Bing and Royal Anne cherries which would make anybody's mouth water like the gushing fluids of the lithia fountain. A tourist, fondling the box, disturbed the arrangement of the cherries, which tumbled invitingly into his lap The rest of the tale can be easily interpreted in the purple stained mouths and tongues of registering tourists and office em ployes. who have been profuse in expressing their gratitude to the mayor, who took the occurrence in stride.
