This Is by tar the most Important ad the largest delegation ever to visit the city, and altho there are several months ahead. Secretary Steele emphasiied the necessity ot starting preparations at once so that when the visitors arrive everything will run ott with clock-like precision. . Medtord will not try to monopollie this delegation, or the credit tor en tertaining it. Both Ashland and Grants Pass will be invited to Join 8B IjoBts. The visitors will be given 'a breakfast In Medtord arriving on a' special train from Portland which Portland has agreed to furnish at a cost of $6000.

As far as publicity is concerned this excursion will surpass anything ever before imagined. Every visitor will be not only a person ot influence but will have the ears of thousands. In many cases hundreds of thousands of people. The editors will come from all parts ot the country and the resulting advertising will be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Millard ot the Chrlstlau church has presented a plan ot a children's community chorus of 600 from ten to twenty years of age, to sing in the city park. Ho v. Millard will lead and train them and if he receives the endorsement ot the club, the city council and the school board will solicit subscriptions to erect seats in the city park where the sum mer concerts will be given. The dir ectors took no formal action but are in sympathy with the plan, and will aid if the city council gives its ap proval. . Secretary Steele's report . showed the finances of the club and the membership in greatly improved con dition. It was decided to liquidate old bills is soon as possible, the fi nance committee being instructed to devise ways and means. The auto mobile question was discussed and it was decided to dispose ot the car during the county fair next fall. In order to facilitate club affairs the bye-laws were-amended reducing the quorum to five directors, so that during the summer months there will not be so many adjourned meetings because of absentees. ' ' Upon the suggestion of W. G. Tait the secretary was instructed to write the Southern Pacific and request that the right of way thru Medtord 'be cleaned up and put in a more pre sentable condition. The club believes the buildings belonging to the com pany could at least be given a coat of paint' as they are at Central Point and Phoenix. The matter of a parking ground was considered and the directors de cided that as there is no desirable site that is available it would be good policy and a practical indication of the new Medtord spirit to Inform tourists of the splendM accommoda tions at Ashland for camping out and the superior hotel accommodations in this city. HAWLEY SECURES : Life this week seems to be just one darned thing after another with the orchardlsts ot the valley for. In ad dition to the bad frost of this morn - ing following the one of early lion day, the San Francisco weather office predicts a heavy frost for Wednesday morning. , While the frost of today was two degrees colder than that ot Monday . there wag no data at the hour of go ing to press this afternoon as to how much damage had been clone. ' But tbe minimum of 27 degrees above in Medtord and immediate vicinity was reached at about Bun-up and It was cold such a short time, it is generally. thought the orchards in general escaped. i Reports show it was much colder in several, other parts of the valley, tbe Bear Creek orchard having, a temperature In the neighborhood. of 24 or 25, and the Holloway orchard having a 26 degree mark. North ot Medtord It. was reported to . have reached 23 in some places. A num ber ot the orchards smudged making a thick pall which Boon drifted to the eastern part of the valley. . County Agriculturist Cate before making a trip of inspection this after noon said he was of the opinion the frost thus far' had not injured the pear. crop but had perhaps been severe on the apricots and peaches. The latter are so heavily set however that only a killing freeze could cause serious damage. A killing freeze Is what is feared in the morning. J. A. Perry inspected several peach orchards this morning and reported he found only about ten per cent of tbe blossoms injured. i . FOLLOW THE TRACKS FOR THREE DAYS Tracks always have the atmosphere of mystery ' about them. Doesn't make any difference whether they be railroad tracks, which lead into the land of far away, or little or big foot prints? ' Tracks key up your Imagination particularly odd looking tracks. Per haps you can't figure out the sort of animal that has passed on its jour ney, That adds to. the zest of the question. . ' s.- Many animals have big, husky feet, and It's worth while brushing up on this track business to discover. what kind of an animal makes foot prints like the ones that are printed in to day's issue. ; . After all, a little fun adds to the joy of living. And you'll undoubtedly get some tun out of this real old time mystery. .. . SALEM, April 8. Representative :W. C. Hawley, of the First Oregon district has received a letter from Major General Henry Jersey, assis tant chief of staff, war department, advising him In reply to his request .that about 500 soldiers at East Poto mac Park, near Washington, be dis charged that they may return to fam ilies and positions in Oregon, that about a hundred men, selected ac cording to the urgency of their, rea sons for discharge, will be released within a .very short time and that still further reductions will be made from time tp time as the nature of the duties of this special organization and other troops to take their place, will admit. Mr. Hawley is advised in General Jersey's letter that the regi ment to which tbe Oregon soldiers are attached is being used to guard .valuable government property and other indispensable duties, and that there is a present necessity for keep ing adequate forces there.
