The Medford attendance at the
Southern Oregon Soldiers and Sailors
encampment at Grants Pass yester
day was slim, concerning which
Thursday's dally Courier of that elly
said: "Today Is Medford day at the
Old Soldiers and Sailors encampment
but inasmuch as the Medford people
did not put in an appeurance there
will be no Medford program. There
are a few Medford people in cump
but no general representation. The
pressure of the fruit season is held
accountable for the slim representa
tion. The big dinner by the W. It. C.
was given this noon. One long table
wus spread under the oaks und seat
ed nt the table were near a hundred
veterans and W. It. C. visitors."
