lone High School Will
Present Play Tomorrow
"A Full House," the first lone
High school play of the season, will
be given at the lone gymnasium next
Friday night, Nov. 19.
A synopsis of the play reveals that
Ned Pembroke, a reckless and wealthy
youth, writes ardent love letterB to
Vera Vernon, a show girl, who threat
ens him with breach of promise. His
attorney brother-in-law steals the let
ters and then gets his hand bag mixed
up with the grip of a burglar who had
just stolen a valuable necklace from
the mother of the indiscreet youth.
Then follow the efforts of the crook
to recover his plunder and the at
tempted explanations of the attorney,
a newlywed.'as incidents in the story
of the play in which the swiftness of
the action never halts for an instant.
Not only are the situations scream
ingly funny but the lines themselves
hold a fund of humor at all times.
The cast for the play includes 14
students as follows:
Parks, an English servant
Rood Eckleberry
Susie, a maid Mildred Smith
Marjorie Howell, a bride
Doris Gunzel
Miss Vinnecker, the aunt

Better Pay for Assessors
Medford Mail-Tribune.
The recent meeting of county asses
sors in Medford emphasized the fact
that their duties are among the most
important in the administration of
local government. The position de
mands a high grade of discrimination,
sound business judgment and unusual
technical ability. A good assessor
can do more to aid the prosperity of
a community, and a poor assessor
more to injure it, than any other of
ficial on the county payroll.
Jackson county is unusually fortun
ate in having in J. B. Coleman one of
the most capable assessors in the
state. From what wo saw of the as
sessors assembled here we should say
the general ability of the incumbents
in this state is high.
But the assessors are notoriously
ill paid. While salaries and wages in
all other lines of work have doubled
and trebled in the past decade, the
assessors' salaries have remained un
changed. One thing is certain, whele here and
there an assessor may remain without
any salary increase, few of them can
be retained, on the present schedules.
"All right, let them go," we hear
Mr. Penny Wise exclaim, "we can get
plenty of men willing to take the
job."
That's precisely the trouble. We
can get plenty of men. But we can't
get good men, and there is no posi
tion so necessary to fill with a good
man as the position of assessor.
Mr. and Mrs. C. H, Latourell re
turned on Monday from a tirp to the
coaBt at Rockaway, where they spent
a few days. Weather conditions were
none too good, so Charley reports,
thunder storms with lots of rain
making it rather uncomfortable get
ting around.
Protect Your Own Future
BY A SAFE DEPOSIT BOX.
Your own future may be tied up in the valuables which
you possess. Jewelry, Innsurance policies, bonds, stocks
and other valuable papers. You should protect your fu
ture by giving these valuables every possible safeguard.
There is only one really safe way to guard such papers,
and that is in a Safe Deposit Box in this bank. When
they are guarded here, you know absolutely that they are
safe. Safe from the burglar, from fire and water. All
worry about possible loss is taken from your mind.
Safety, however isn't the only reason for the desirabil
ity of our Safe Deposit Boxes. They are very convenient,
always available to yu during our office hours. The
cost is remarkably small trifling in comparison with the
saving it may mean for you.
Come in and let us tell you about this safeguard for the
valuables which may mean so much for your future.
