PTiGE THREE PARIS TENDERS GREAT OVA I TO AMERICANS Pershing's Reception a Continuous Succession of Enthusiastic Demon strationsNapoleon's Tomb Visit edPresented to President Poin care Joffre Accompanies Party. PARIS, June 14. Tho first day spent in Paris by Major-Geuoral Per shing was a continuous succession of enthusiastic demonstrations. Great throngs filled tho Place de la Con corde early in the day, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Americans. Hundreds of French soldiers on leave from the front mingled In the throngs and gave hearty . greotings to the troopers o the Second cavalry, who ac'fompaniedi General Pershing. A larere American flarr wnvnrl nvflp the general's hotel and everywhere the French and American colors were in tertwined. One of the first events on today's program was a visit to Napoleon's tomb. After a brief ceremonw. Gen eral Pershing made a formal call on American Ambassador Sharp and was then escorted to the palace of the Elysee to be presented to President Poincare. At 12:30 o'clock tho presi dent and Madame Poincare gave a state breakfast In honor of the Amer ican commander. Among tho other guests were Premier Ribot, General Palnleve, Marshal Joffre, Minister Vi vian! and Ambassador Sharp. Tendered Ovation. Parts opened its arms to General Pershing and his staff yesterday and welcomed them with an outburst of spontaneous enthusiasm such as only Paris is capable of. No conquering Jiero returning home could have hop ed for or received such a tremendous reception as greeted the American commander as his automobile sped thrihundreds of thousands of cheer ing people. , Paris and particularly the French authorities had planned and hoped for a great reception, but it is doubtful whether the most optimistic pictured the almost frantic crowds that all but blocked tho progress of tho aulomo biles. Men and women cheered them selves hoarse and flung masses of flowers into tho cars. Parisians de clare that the only event in their life time that approximates the reception 3n enth.usia.sm wa3 that accorded to King George of England in 1914. A Continuous Roar. When the special train reached the station General Pershing and Field Marshal Joffre were tho first to ap pear. Behind them came a stream of American officers, each with a French officer as his host. Tho first shout of welcome became a continuous road that seemod to shake the station to its foundation. The police hurriedly began to clear a lane down which a half dozen automobiles moved at a snail's pace, between frantic throngs. 1 om hundreds of windows Amori can flags were waved by men, women and children. French girls, with flags pinned to their breasts and their arms filled with flowers bought from their scanty savings, fairly fought for chance to get near enough to tho ma chines to hurl their offering Into the laps and on the shoulders of the as tonished American officers. The Americans apparently had not Imagined the heights to which Parisi an enthusiasm could rise. Hoys, men and girls and even some old women struggled to jump on the running board of General Pershing's car to Bhake hands with him. Velcotno Is Hailed. The demonstration was tho more Significant because it ennio from a groat outpouring of people who, for the time being, seemed almost to for get that war was in progress. It was not General Pershing alone who came in for unprecedented ova tlons, but every American caught Bl flit of by the people was almost bu dened with fowers. Crowds shouted themselves hoarse with cheers for America. From every houso top all along the route, from every window from every elevations and from the thousands upon thousands who chok ed every thorofare In tho vicinity o the line of march there was hurled a welcome that no American in Pari: will ever forget. EARL COMPANY HE TO F. 0. B. SALES A circular recently received Is of interest to local growers. It is an announcement to tho trade Issued by the Earl Fruit company of the North west and represented in the valley by J. C. Brown. Tho methods by which this company propose to handle fruit re so different from those of tho us- al marketing concern, that the grow er should at once be interested. The ordinary plan l:as been to se cure tho growers crop by any means possible, after which it would, be consigned to some of the larger mar kets for sale. If it struck a good arket, it brought a good price and the marketing concern took the cred it. If the market was glutted and othing was realized for the grower. it was a dispensation of providence nd the agent was not to bo blamed. The Earl company, realizing that tho consignment plan would never Tosult in any permanent business, that it was unfair and a constant source of dissatisfaction and loss to tho grower, re confining their efforts to f. o. b. sales. In order to accomplish this they have secured representation in every city in the country capablo of handling a.carload of fruit, and even have their salaried agent in the Eng lish market, Mr. Moomaw, who has heretofore so successfully When Uncle Sam began oflcially to "snoop around" for "slackers" this week, a man named Gregory, employ ed around ' Medford for several handlcdnionlhs in various orchards, felt the this business for Davison of Hood"jg was up" and that ho must lay his River, but who is now associated wlthoardgi ace uPi on the boar He sur the Earl company. .

On Monday two cars were loaded With copper ore from the Blue I-edic and one car of antimony from th lloxworth-Carnenter mine. Three carloads of copper ore aro now ready tho plana propected for tho Rogue Rlvor valley. They state to tho trade that they will have their own force of Inspectors at all shipping points and can insure quality and accurate grad ing and that sales will be Btrlctly on the f. o. b. plan. Of course, there will always be some necessity for consign ments especially on Ncwtowns, but even in that respect they will be able to avoid objectionable practices of tho English broker by having their own representative on the ground. In tho matter of supplies, the Earl company means to take care of their patrons. All who are acquainted with the lumber situation, know that tho problem of securing sufficient box shook for the valley's needs this sea son, is a problem. Tho fact is that the mills will not even quote prices at the present time. The Earl company, foreseeing this, has covered their wants and will be able to take care of those whose fruit they ship. The sauie tills is truo of paper, nails and other supplies. We predict that this concern will prove a valuable asset to the valley and a very important factor in the fruit marketing world. (Adv.) SLACKER PROVES 10 BE ARMY DESERTER T OF B. The trial oC 0. I!. Guy, in the cir cuit court, on n charge of contribut ing to the delinquency of a minor, one Fern Mi'Dnnii'ls, came to a rather in glorionsly nlinipt finish when .Iml'c Calkins, at the close of the iinrniuent of District Attorney IJolierts, in structed the jury to return n verdict of not guilty on the jrrounil that the evidence was insufficient to author ize a consideration on tho pint of the jury. The case of Hie slate was painfully weak nnd vnscillutiiui as to lime and place nnd the efforts of the prosecu tion to bolster it up with incompe tent nnd hearsay scandal was very promptly nipped by the court upon the objections of attorneys Neff and Kelly who represented the defendant. At the dose of the trial Attorney Kelly submitted the motion for a di rected verdict, which so abruptly ter minated the case, . The ease attracted wido attention on account of I lie prominence of the defendant and a large crowd was in attendance. Fully a score of promi nent citizens, doctors, lawyers nnd business men of Iiifili standing came voluntarily to testify as to tho good moral character of the defendant and nt the close of the trial Mr. Ony wan surrounded by congrntululiiur friends among which were mijny of the jurors who sat upon tho trial.

Is the duto of tho big Choral Socioty concert to bo given at tho Pago.

It is a program to be given by a hundred and fifty musicians and sing ers, all residents of the ltoguo River valley. These people havo been rehearsing all the past winter on this program.
