what he said in part last night:
"God lias made laws in the spir

the ship is cleared for action every

When George Bernard Shaw wrote
his "Anns and the Man" from whioli
tlic new Viennese opora, ''The Choco
late Soldier," which comes to the
Medford theater next Saturday. .Feb
ruary II, was adapted, he intended to
satirize the methods of modern war
fare and something of its bombast
and bluster, but in the comic opera
form, while the Mime story is very
much in evidence, it is given in a
heartier spirit of humor, with uiliny
more laughs for (he audience. As in
the book. "The Chocolate Soldier" N

of u bad heart. Not only should we
love him, but our love should be em
bodied in the right vvnv a disem
bodied love is incapable of existence
in this world. Here this text gives
us a hint. Walk in love as Christ
also hnth loved us. IBs expression
of love should bo the measure rod

"His love took the form of trusting

and work. We otisjht to trust him

Saturday, February 3rd will be Dollar Bargain
Day in Medford
Wonderful Buying Chances Will Be Offered in All Lines of Merchandise
"When Medford gave its first Dollar Bargain Day on the 9th of last December a great many people were somewhat skeptical ahouf the advantages but those who bought goods here on that day
were loud in their praises of the bargain opportunities offered. Not only were goods sold cheaper in Medford than in surrounding towns but assortments were much better.
So many people have asked us to have another bargain day that the merchants have decided to have another one on Saturday, i'ebruary .'ird, and on that day special bargains will be offered
