MEDFOTJD MATL TRTBUNE MEDFORT). OREGON. MONDAY. MAY PXOTC TTTRET! BUTTE FALLS LED BUI EAGLE POINT The school field and track meet nt Eojrfe Point lust Thursday was a decided success, as has been previ ously reported. The cup was won nj?nin by Khxle Point, with a total score of 37 1-3 points. Butto Kails wns far in the lead, scoring 6-1.8 points, but could not compete for the cup because its school was not represented by 80 per cent of its enrolled pupils.

In each event, however, the individual contestant who won a prize, second or third place was given a ribbon prize. More of these prizes went to Untie Falls than to uuy other school.

In the potato polo in the nfternoon, one or two of the contestants exercised unnecessary cruelty to the horses, n if'iietice in which no true sportsmnn would indulge. It spoiled the pleas ure for ninny of the spectators and did not meet with the approval of the management. TROOPS TO WEST PETROGHAI), May 7.

SCENE FROM "SEPTEMBER MORN," COMING TO PAGE MAY 11 I , 4 . fP , 1- : ' " li 'September Morn" has found her way to the stage with Her wealth of song, mirth, melody, happiness and Joy. Ruth Wilkins, "The American Gaby Deslys," Is In the role of "Ar gentina," the dancer, while William Moore, a remarkably clever eccentric comedian will l.e seen as 'Hudolph i T OF I! If Medford restaurants keep on reducing portions in an endeavor to keep puce with the constantly rising cost of food products and at the same time furnish a meal at near former cost before the rise started, patrons will soon probably have to take lunches, along with them.' The single men, bachelors and other restaurant patrons who, until recently, were not bothered with the high cost of living and perhaps thought it was all a myth, arc now contributing their bit to the war up set conditions of the country. 'It certainly is costing them more to live nnd they are getting less food thun before for their money. The time-honored twcnly-fivo cent meal in Medford restaurants is noth ing but a fond memory, especially the noondny nieu. Some lime ngo all tho restaurants but one raised their meal prices to 30 or 35 cents, and besides began cutting dow.ii the liberal portions of potatoes and side dishes. One restaurant which has a very large patronage and gives a liberal variety of meats to choose from, still charges only 25 cents for the noon day meal for most of the courses, but has raised the prices of others to 30 and 35 cents. However, the 25 cent meals do not have the liberal por tions of long ngo. And with none of the courses is dessert thrown in as formerly. Now all puddings are five cents extra. Neither are hot cukes nny longer served at the restaurants free with breakfast orders. If you want hot cukes now you hnvc to pay extra for them. Meal tickets which for merly sold for $4.50 for 21 meals arc now $5.00 a ticket. The Elks club restnurmit, which aims to serve meals nnd food at only cost to members of the order, and which has long served a 25 cent luncheon nt noon, was recently com pelled to raise this price to 30 cents in order to break even, although serving tiie same ipiality nnd (inuti lity of food. The same condition of affairs ex ists all over Oregon nnd the Pacific coast. Everywhere the restaurants hnvc raised prices and decreased the portions of food served. And there is talk tliut prices must be raised still higher. Anyhow the 25 cent meal is a thing of the past for u long time to come. ALIENS WANT TO JOIN U. S. ARMY WASHINGTON', May 7. Another of the difficult problems' In putting the army on a war footing Is the dis position of the aliens In the United States, who though unnaturalized and still citizens are subjpect to the entente powers and who wlnh to fight under the American flag. Ap plications are pouring Into the war department from people acting as in dividuals o rthrough committees. In most cases they ask permission to Join the I'nlted States army in na tional units from companies to le gions. The war department prefers that the men return to the countries of their origin to serve in their armies, but although most of them have seen military .service and aic now rererv- IhIk, they Insist upon serving under tho American flag.
