II ADDRESSES
ELKS IN BEHALF OF
T'Wasiire and profit to an uncom
mon degree weie combined la t lie
meeting addressed lust night by
Professor Irving ViuinK of. "Ash
laud. The beautiful hall of
the Elkii Tenuile as filled with
fathers and lnollicnt and young peo
ple. Tlio firBt halt hour was devoted
to music, .Mr. Root's wonderful or
chestra of boys giving a splendid ac
count of themselves In selections
from tho "Bohemian C.irl." and the
"Tales from Hoffman." .Miss (lerald
lno Theiss Bang with fine Interpretive
ability and artistic finish, and Mas
ter Riley DaviB as violin soloist was
loudly applauded. This little fellow
bids fair to make a violinist mueh
above the average, judging from his
present attainment.
Professor Vltiing delivered his lec
ture, on "Important Periods of Life."
Tho speaker showed bis appreciation
of boy psychology by engaging at once
tho attention of a large number of
boys in the audieure with a striking
Btory of a visit to a settlement house
In the gas tank section of the Kast
Side of New York City, and his dis
covery among those juvenile outlaws
of society that underneath they have
the same feelings, the same deslrest
the Batno springs of action bs boys
and girls reared In the average home,
nnd that somewhere In their minds
and hearts Is a point where fontact
can bo established between them
eelves and better things.
The speaker divided bis subject
into four periods, time limitations
alone preventing bis carrying the
6ubjoct Into any further divisions.
The first period was made to cover
from one to six years of age, the pe
riod of Infancy. In this period there
are two great mandates that should
be fulfilled in every life, one that a
child should never be taught to fear.
The early natural faith nnd trust of
the child should be encouraged and
applied to everything, and those
things which children are commonly
A feature of the uiustoul progr-n
was the playuir of his own musical ,
composition, "The ('later t.V;.;

Tho next period was that between
Six and eleven years of age. The 11--oar
old boy Is the rare child, he Is
not an Individual, he is just one of
the groat mass. This period Is the
nature period, tho Gipsy period. Some
people never grow out of It and they
become hoboes. Kvery boy of eleven

ho grows like a weed. He begins to

with the boys' life, his Interests and
plans, and warning of the danger of
shutting a boy out from this right,
were made in a very telling and Im
pressive manner.
Tho next period referred lo was
that on to 21 or 22. with school fin
ished, confidence tested, nnd the
great battle of life begun.

lugs by the city council In their reg
ular mid-monthly session last night.
The first of these relates to vehicle
traffic within the corporate limits of
Medford. The chutige ufade In the
ordlnauce, which repeals the former t
traffic rules, are that all yi'hk-lr-s,
whether or not they are motor ve
hicles, which would Include buggies,
vngons and pushcarts in operntiun be
tween sundown and sunrise, must
carry a light, one only being neces
sary on other than motor vehicles
providing It throws a white light to
the front and a red light to the rear.
The ordinance also provides for the
dimming of auto headlights, stating
that they must be so frosted as not
to blind, ila'.zle or confuse occupants
of other vehicles or pedestrians. The
maximum punishment for infraction
is $ len or 'n days in jail.
Another proviuort is for the estab
lishment of n safety zono on t he
streets near puldi'- sj-lionls wherein
the speed limit is ten miles per hour
during school hours. These zones
will be marked by signs.
Fire Pteventiini Law.
Tin; second ordinance passed is n
saefty torst measure, designed fur the
lowi(lug of the fire loss within the
city limits. It provides that all build
ings: within the city shall be inspect
ed by the fire chief or sonic member
of the department twice a year in
the outlying diilricts and four times
a yiar in lite closely liulli section.
This ordinance nut with considerable
opposition from (V.ineilman Keenc
and Mayor Emeiick who contended
that the property owner should as
sume the responsibility of inspecting
his own home. They objected to the
additional exicns.o which they con
sidered the measure involved, llolh.
however, stated they w ould he glad to
havo their own homes inspected.
The measure was Passed upon Fire
Chief l.nwton's explanation that the
Inspection will necessitate no adld
tlonnl expense, and said that the work
n in line witli modern fire depart
ment methods, that the chief should
spend his time in the prevention of
fire, not in waiting for fires to come
nnd then put them out. The fire two
weeks ago on Geneva street, lie ex
plained, would never have occurred
hud the fire place been inspected, as
It was plainly defective.
Petitions lteceived.
A number of petitions were read
I and referred to various committees
j for action. The Applegate Lumber
: Co. asked that the city water mains
j tie extended to the city limits uear
I the mill. From this point they will j
extend the main to the mill. They de-
isire water for keeping up the level of

Which Do You Prefer?
It is important for reasons of health and
practical economy for every housekeeper
to ask herself this question:
" Do I prefer a pure baking powder like
Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from
prapes. or am I willing to use a baking
powder m;ide of alum or phosphate, both
derived from mineral sources?"
The names of the ingredients printed
on the label show whether the kind you
art now using ot any brand, neiv or old,
that may be offered is a genuine cream
ui tartar powder or merely a phosphate
i alum ci impound.
