OFFJR WAR Seventy-three Yoitng Men of Jackson County Called to Colors, Leave for Training Camp Crowd Bids Them Cheerful Farewell Mother of Ev ans Creek Youth Collapses. "Wo're rarln' to go" was the slo gan of til o 73 youim men of Jackson county forming the largost draft con tingent that ban yet left In a body for military sorvlce from here, and while -waiting for the train this morning to take them to Camp Lewis until the time of departure the expression wan frequently shoutod. , It was 'by far the liveliest bunrh of drafted men yet to dopart. The boys, who came from all parts of the coun ty, wero overflowing with that elu Blve thing known as "pop" and choor Julness. They pulled off a numbor of stunts as they pranced around thru the crowd of several hundred people, mostly friends and rolativea, fathered to bid them farewell, and etopped here and there to shake liands and say good-bye. Some of the boys swiped a lawnmower from "somewhere in Medford" and brought It to the depot where after having lots ot fun with the machine as a whole they proceeded to dismember it and parceled out Its pieces as far an thoy would go to be carried away on the train as souvenirs. Ilncruits Are Cheerful Considering the largo numbor of Jnon who wore loavlng, tho crowd to 1ld them farowell was not up to the aiedford standard as shown In pre vious fnrewolls to seloctod men. The cheerfulness and exuberant spirits of the boys was contagious and the relatives and close friends quickly absorbed it, but here and there thru out th crowd wero women with toar tiedlmmed oyes, some men, too, who trlod to smile and laugh like tho pthors. Just as tho train pulled out with f ho drafted men cheering and calling Sut messages the crowd was electrl Ilod In sympathy with n grlet-strlck-cn mother, whose nerves giving way, caused hor to scream In ngony and Charles E.

Wash. iFAI RJALTO TONIGHT William Fox has provided a bril liant now play tor Gladys llrockwoll which will be presented at tho Rlalto theatre tonlKlit and tomorrow. It Is called "Tho Scarlet Road." This play presents the star, who Is ouo of tho greatest favorites that the screen possesses, In a new light and makes her moro attractive than ever. Cer tain It Is that Miss llrockwoll has earned an envlatilo reputation In the work that she has done. Tho play has to do with a young woman who meets with the literary and artfftlc community of a great city and becomes one of the group, but has nut a real part In Its views and manner of life. In spite of all the temptations that surround her, she remains strong and true. Two men are In lovo with her. In the end "he finds that ono has betrayed her trust. There Is an opportunity for brilliant acting In this play, and un doubtedly Gladys Itrockell has taken advantage, of It. HAS SECRET OF MAKING LIONS SMILE Mrs. II. B.
