feliows the transcontinental excursion
of the American Geographical soci
'ty, comprising seventy of the fore
most scientists of the world, who arc
taken as guests of the IfedfonT Com
mercial club to Crater Lake lut
week. Regarding the entertainment,
the excursionists wired as follow,?:
"If the census taker counted hos
pitalities us he now counts inhabi
tants Medford would be the metro
polis of the world. This has been
enthusiastically voted by the mem
bers of the transcontinental tour of
, the American Geographical society o
1 Xew York in recognition of the warm
welcome, the automobile transporta
tion, the marvelous lake, and the
brotherhood of good fellows we have
' so thoroughly enjoyed." W. M.
Davis, director.
' Regarding the entertainmeut, the
Oregon Journal says:
"Will G. Steel says that when it
comes to entertainment like it combi
nation of brotherly love and clock
work, "vou have to hand it to Mod
ford." He mine back yesterday from
southern Oregon whither he conduct
ed tlje party of famous foreign geo
graphers that visited in Portland sev
eral days ago. lie says that one of
the geographers, n Swiss and that
makes the compliment better said
that majesty of outlook impressed
him more than anything he had ever
seen and that the prosperity nnd hos
pitality of the J red ford people was
even beyond that.
"But let me tell you hi my own
way," said Mr. Steel. "All during
the trip things went so beautifully 1
was afraid nny minute I'd waku up.
"We arrived in Medford. There
were cars lined up for tho entire
party and the chauffeurs of thno
cars were the owners of them. We
started on our way to Crater Lake
nnd nothing was aid about lunch
though the hour was lute. But noth
ing needed to be said.
"Luncheon had been scut on ahead.
It was ficrved at Piospoet and an we
nto wo overlookedTrtfthe wonderful
Rogue river canyon. Iletwccn 4 and
5 o'clock this is last Monday I am
talking about we- arrived at the
lake, and why so promptly? Because
every automobile ha'd its place. There
was no racing, no hurrying, no dust,
no confusion. But more than all,
two 'trouble' caw fallowed us. A
puncture or a blow-out simply niimut
that the car dropi('! out of lino Until
the trouble car came along. Both
trouble cam carried the best mechan
icians money could employ, and nil
donated their sorvicos to the cause.
Repairs wore go prompt as to be
startling.
"Tuesday and Wednesday nights
wo stayed at the lake. We had pre
pared for 100, and (here were. 120 in
camp. But all wore provided for. Wo
left Wednesday morning nt 0 o'clock.
Six hours later we were sitting in the
chairs at tho hotel. Since niitouto
bilos traversed thi road, but before
we bad secured the improvement that,
has been made, it required 10 to 11
hours to como from Crnlcr lake to
Medford. That is something gratify
ing, too. While nt tho lake those
geographers must have- taken 1000
pictures. .Wo nra going to bo known
all over the world in the newest and
most desirable way because of their
visit. That mnket? me feel good.
"On our return, wo'wcro entertain
ed by the University club with a lav
ish luncheon ju which good fellowship
was the keyhole. Altogether it wan
a most successful nffair."
After loading tho International
leuguo for soma time during tho
present hoiihoii, the Jiiniey City team
hail dropped down among tho coal
bltiH and gnu meters.
