SLOGAN OF IN
! 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

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. Cole claims to have the reclpo for making a lion laugh.
Sho dubbed this six-weeks-old jungle scion "Pershing." and right
away the cub registered a regular iionine grin.
Mrs. Cole, wife of Lieut. Cole, assistant provost marshal of the western
department of the army, surmises that her pefs prldo was flattered by
being named after a real fighter. You might try it on the nextllon you
moet up with.

way to be able lo remain with their
