RECEPTION
GIVEN
VISITING TEACHERS
AT THE MEDFORD
The formal receiifion tendered tho
visiting teachers and members of the
Oregon State Teachers' association
at tho Hotel Medfprd last night was
a very enjoyable nffirir. The 'pro
gram, though brief, was rendered de
Kirhtfully, the musicians, both vocal
n hd instrumental, ucqiiitting them
selves most creditably. The address
of welcome by Attorney Gus Xebury
w'ris Well recdvtHl, tho speaker's oc
caAiotuil glints of humor serving to
enliven the appreciation of his words
of welcome. Mr,.Herdman's response
wns well sKken nnd manifestly sin
cere It would be unfair to make S)Hcial
reference to nny particular feature
of the program and the excellence
which marked its rendition. It was
all of a high class. It may be re
marked, however, that tho male quar
tet, Messrs. Lindlcy, Alford, Meeker
and Dennett, wan conspicuous bv its
absence. It is a coinpliniint to the
young men to say that this was ro
greited. After the reception, many of the
teachers and their hosts attended the
ball nt tho Seventh company's arm
ory, while others enjoyed the Drama
league's amateur players club's pre
sentation of "Hyacinth Halvey," the
'one-act piny by Lady Grcsory, nt the
Page theater.
Others attended other functions
especially prejKircd for them in other
party of tho city, among them being
two or threo private donco parties.
BOY-ED ADVISES CENSORSHIP
(Continued from pace oim;
COUNTESS WHO KITCHENER WILL WED
"We Germans do not understand
what yoi call your 'free press.' Our
lows allow tho fullest personal lib
erty consistent with tho welfare of
the stale. Dut-we do not ocrmit the
diplomatic representatives of friendly
(rovemments to be insulted nd libitum
or our government to be embarrass
ed iu lis dealings wih other" nations,
nor men's reputations to be wantonly
sacrificed by the wild nnd lecklcss
utterances of an irresponsible press
like the Providence Journal. And I
venture to predict that in sheer Keif
defense you will be forced to tnko like
measures, notwithstanding tho dan
gerous power of your prts.
"Whilo our enemies have been and
are being supplied from this country
with all forms of death-dealing mun
itions of war without which thev
would have lone since been overcome,
I have been denounced from one end
of the country to the other for hav
ing been concerned at the outset of
the war iu chartering ships to stipplj
our cruisers at sea with coal and
food, as though it were a crinio in
stead of being, as it is nnd has been
considered by your court, to be a
fttrictly lawful act.
Wants Friendship of l S.
"It is my heartfelt hope that tho
United States and Germany, which
have po many cojnmou interests, will
always mHintain their friendly rein
lions; that pence will come soon nnd
that the abatement of passion will
;nahln all Americans to hae for
Germany nnd G.munns the same good
will as formerly.
"I say goodbye to all mv personal
fncuds in this country, thanking them
for tho innumerable evidences of
friendship I have received nt their
hands, and eapicss my gratitude to
those who have renutined impartial
and unbiased in a war, the bloodshed
and horror of which the world has
never seen the like before."

that ever has been seen since the war
began. Nearly n thousand citizens
of .Stockholm attended. Ecry men

oked applause.
When Louis Lochncr, secictnry of
the expedition, announced that the
executive committee had secret infor

ligerent nntions were willing to nego
tiate for peace the meeting became
tumultous.
Astonish tlio World
"It would astonish the world," said
Mr. Lochncr, "if wo made known at
this lime what influences are at work
for peace. This information hns been
in the oossession of the executives
of the expedition ever since we sailed
from New York'. It wns mc rem en

at this time it cannot be said just

"lhneinlli Halvey," the one-net

a large and very appreciative audi
ence at the Pngc liist T-iight by local

going public. ns-.Irisli humor, U giv.es
tho true Celtic Vein of subtle wit nnd
simple interpretation of tho complex
ities of life.
In view of the nature of this play,
which is a clear-cut Irish character
sketch, giving no opportunity for thu
ordinary happy dramatic situation,
the success attained by tho players in
their roles was remarkable. Holbrook
Withington as Butcher Quirk main
tained the Celtic ntmosphero in
brogue, mannerisms nnd quaint rc
servo of expression ns only n pro
fessional could have done. Mr. Cass

cation which wns delightful. Gerald

Tho success of the meeting, which
