It w in my opinion jjooU suluttoa of th "hobo" A "WILD flower is a little thing lost in the green of - J ul I -robed Spring. Yet its beauty brightens the scene and its fragrance sweetens the air, wafting the brimming cup of .Tune to the jaded heart and it drops its petals all too soon. A dewdrop is a little thinglost in the glory of a sum mer's morn. Yet it sparkles with the splendor of the rising sun and glistens with the myriad colors of hope, reflecting the beauty of the new-horn day and its fragile life is all too brief. A thrush's song is a little thing lost iii the depths of a forest dell. Yet its whistled music lightens the purple shadow of the woodland gloom and its message' ol. melody cheers with the joy of spring and the song is hushed all too quicklv. A ray of sunshine is a little thing lost in the gold of the noontide Hood. Yet it gilds with the magic mystery of life, and at its soft caress the bare earth bursts into bloom and wherever it shines, tho earo-laden arc brighter and burdens lighter and darkness falls all too early. A kind word is a little thing lost in the buzz of a busy world. Yet to the discouraged it brings new life and hope, and purpose grows clearer and love grows dearer, and the cheering words are all too few. A smile is a little thing lost in a life of toil ai?d sorrow. Yet to the heavy-laden it inspires fresh faith and cour age grows stronger and the day seems longer and the kindly smiles are all too rare. A. generous act is a little thinglost in the flood of greed and grab. Yet it brightens many a gloomy lite and scatters som ber sorrow, and the sunshine of an unselfish deed enshrines the doer in its glory and gracious acts are all too scarce. OUR COSMOPOLITAN POPULATION. II R population of the Rogue River valley is more cos mopolitan in diameter than that of anv section of Oregon. People have come here from every state and ter ritory of the Union to make their homes among the or chards. All classes and kinds of occupation are represented. The retired trust magnate, the wealthy stock broker, the famous army officer, the college professor, the lawyer, the doctor, the business man, the stockman, the sailor, the farmer and the miner all meet as neighbors in the fascin ating occupation of fruit raising. The University club, recently organized at Medford, is a fair index to the character of the population.. In its active membership of less than a hundred, forty-one uni versities are represented including graduates 'of famous universities in Canada, JOngland, Prance, Sweden, Ger many and Austria. Practically all of the leading educational .institutions of America are represented. All of the famous eastern universities have alumni here. Jn addition, graduates of seventeen of the leading state universities are enrolled. West l'oint and the schools of technology are also repre sented. ' ' Oxford, Cambridge, Montreal, Berlin, Paris, Il'eidel burg, Vienna, Stockholm, all of these ancient institutions have former students located here to sing their praises. Then the smaller colleges and secular institutions have also a generous representation. Put by far the larger proportion of our population are graduates from the university of hard knocks and most of them have won diplomas in it, too. This mixture of classes of men from all sections and of all kinds, is one of the things that makes life attractive m the charming A'nlloy ol the lvogue. ... . ..-.-... t - .
