LOCAL PEOPLE LOYAL IN SUPPORT As was expected Medford people came forward gallantly yesterday to provide the drafted boys with a rous ing reception next Friday night. Mrs. R. V. Clancy, who has the supper ar rangements In charge, reported last night she had been busy all day an swering telephone calls ot those who wish to assist. There Is still need of food ol all kinds, however, particu larly Ice cream, sandwiches and vegetable salad, and everyone who wants to help should call Mrs. Clan cey before this evening, and state the amount they can give. Money, of course. In lieu of foodstuffs will be very welcome. Two local cigar stores have offered 50 cigars each and the other stores will undoubtedly fall in line and see they all have "smokes." Several young people arranged last night for a dance Friday night which will begin at 10:10 in honor of the drafted men. It will be known as a patriotic ball and all draft men will be admitted free of charge. Te special meeting for the drafted men at the library will probably be over between 10 and 10:30 and the men will then be free to enjoy themselves. Mr. and Mrs. Bergner of the Page theater also offered to entertain the boys with the great war film, Ge rard's Four Years in Germany, which is to be shown Thursday and Fri day, but It has been found difficult thus far to make final arrangements. It is barely possible that a special run of a few of the best reels wili be given at the Fage after the regular performance Friday night to which all draft men will be admitted free. Mr. and lira. M. T. Easthorn and Miss Helen Stopenbach are Portland auto tourists who are guests at the Hotel Medford. GROCER UP AGAINST IT "I have been up against It for past 3 years suffering from pain in my stomach and side until I was considering giving up my grocery business. Doctors and medicine did not help me. I heard of Mayr's Won derful Remedy through a friend in Buffalo. The first dose gave me more benefit than all the medicine I had taken before and am now feeling as well as ever in my life." It Is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mums from the Intestinal tract and allays the in flammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ali ments, including appendicitis.

These cars consisted of the cars of dynamite and gasoline, a car of crude oil and a car loaded with automo biles. The wreckage soon caught fire. Then began a series of explo sions as keg after keg of the dyna mite on becoming heated let go. In the meantime the train crew succeed ed in hauling the other cars of the train to a place of safety. The ex ploding cans of dynamite were hurl ed in every direction over the coun tryside but did not set lire to build ings. Xo one was hurt.
