horso cleverest and most beautiful
nnin.ul in the world. Yuma kneels in

climbs into, a high bed and covers
himself up unaided. When a fire
alarm is sounded he jumps out of bed,
rushes lo the box to note I lie local ion
of the fire, dashes into the burning
building, extinguishes the flames, res
cues a child and restores it to its
mother. He also performs many oth-.
cr amazing feats and when you hear
Oie crowds roaring you will know
that Ymna is doing his famous society
dances.
: Another ninnzing and intcretinc
attraction is the monkey auto races.
Kight Simian speed maniacs, in cars
of as many makes, burn up the track
for valuable prizes (peanuts) while

. The Hawaiian village offers fifteen
dusky dancing belles nnd 'accom
plished musicians from the isles of
the raid-Pacific in a varied and
pleasing program.
There are six other great shows.

the riding devices may be mentioned

'Beginning Monday, , June 10th
stores of Medford will begin closing
at 5 p. m. instead of 6 p. m. as has
been the custom In this city for past
years. (Saturdays, Si.'lO p. m.)
The merchants iri making the clos
ing hour one hour earlier are keep
ing step with all other cities and
towns ot the country who In many
cases liave adopted this plan some
months ago.
The main reason for such action Is
to conserve time and allow clerks and
employes the opportunity of another
hour of out-door daylight service, all
of which is demanded by our country.
It Is the belief of the merchants
that the buying public can just as
easily lie served on the new schedule
by making their plans accordingly,
and thus co-operate In this aptrlotlc
movement.
STRIKE OF NETTERS
A month's fishing tit the mouth of
Roirue river was lost nnd this year's
salmon puck will he that nmeh small
er beeausp nf the strike of the frillnet
ters, who dtHimmleri 1 1 1 4 cents n
pound for snlmon eauht as against
o1: cents received n year ayo. The
price of 8 cents was fixed by the
government, which als fixed the
price per case fur packing by the
canneries, and after a month's idle
ness, the fishermen union by -a vote
of ."i7 to fy'2 finally decided to accede
to I'ncle Sam's demands. Meanwhile
much valuable food material has
gone to waste. The canneries nre
under federnl regulation.
State Fond Administrator -Ayor is
quoted as follows;
"It has long been contended by old
time f:!;'ir r.:::n t!:at there were alto
gether too many bouts on the river.
Professor Hastings report shows
that one (bird of the boats caught
only IS percent of the fish."
While the administration has no
control over the number of boats,
Mr. Ayer suggests that a fewer num
ber could be worked to better ad
vantage. Speaking from the viewpoint of
the consumer, Mr. Ayer says thai
"the fish are a natural resource, be
longing to all of, the people of the
country and 110 individual or group
of individuals has the right to de
mand for these fish a price greater
than i hiif needed to return them a
lair compensation for the labor and
capital required to place the I'Nh at
the disposal of the consumer."

"A great net of mercy drawn through
an ocean oj unspeakable paiu"
What Has Your Red Cross Money Done?
IN the first place, it has enabled the American people,
through the Red Cross, to help care for its army
and' navy.
"
Secondly, it has enabled America to hearten her
Allies' fighting forces and to keep up, among the civil
ian populations, the spirit to win the war. That, alone,
has made the American Red Cross one of the largest
-factors since our entry into the war.
Canteens which provided food and hot drinks
more than a million meals to soldiers in December;
waive! louses, crammed with materials, situated all along
the French line, all along the Italian lines, at seaports
and at places where our soldiers are going to fight;
institutions for the care of consumptives, institutions
for the re-education of maimed men these are a few
of the concrete accomplishments abroad.
At home the millions of woolen sweaters, muf
flers, socks and other comforts for the men in camps;
the work of sanitation around cantonments and the
help and advice given dependents of soldiers and sailors
these are things which will "make you, your children
and your children's children, in whatever part of the
' world they may be, proud of being Americans."
Will you do your share to "keep this Hand of
Mercy at its work ? ,
Every cent of every dollar received for the Red Cross War Fund goes for War Relief,
