STEDFORD irXTT, TRTBTJOT!, MEDFORD". ORTCGOtf WEDNESDAY, JUNE 4 1913
E
OF
.. A now whisky smuggling wrinkle
developed In Med ford yestoruny
nftornoon when two Southern Pacific
lnspeclorn and Hoy J'rult with bo-
cral workmen examined a freltiht
car of Chevrolet autos consigned to
the l'rultt, HltUon company of Mod
ford by the Chevrolet factory in
Oakland, Calif, ana discovered there.
in seven gunny sacks filled with 100
quart bottles of whisky.
Tho, car load of six automobiles
arrived in the city some time during
the night before and the seal of the
door was found broken open. It is
presumed that the whisky smugglers
after the car was closed and sealed
in Oakland broke it open enroute and
put the whiskey consignment in and
closed the door again, expecting to
pick up the whisky when the car
stopped . in Oregon. Speculation as
to how the booze came into the car
has been rife in town ever since it
was discovered, but the solution is
yet a mystery. ,
Anyhow Mr. Pruitt promptly called
in Chief of Police Timothy and turn
ed, over, the 100 quarts of whisky
to the authorities, thereby incurring
the everlasting emnity of the drink-
ing fraternity of Medford. Some of
our most ardent and persistent boor
er$ are now trying to raise money to
purchase . a carload of Chevrolets
having no real use tor the cars but a
Hood use to put the stuff to that is
delfvered with this make of auto, ac
cording to their way of reasoning.

The school activities are over nod
the bovs and eirls have none to the
fields and orchards to help cnther in
the crops.
Nothing but eood things are said
about the school and its results. ; The
peoule of Phoenix are sure loval to
the school. Thev made the blav and
the operetta a success ' bv lending
tbeir presence and eivins their
monev. Not one complaint has come
during the school Tear.
- The graduating exercises. Thurs
day evening, were rendered to a large
audience.11 Students receiving di
plomas were Leta Stevens. Lois Kiee.

Supt; ''Briscoe of Ashland made a
splendid address ; he showed bv gov
ernment statistics that it uavs to
Bet nn education: he also spoke of
the new education soon to be taken
u bv the schools throughout - the
United States.-r
"Prof. Milam took this opoortnnitv
to present certificates to the eighth
ernde, who 'promised to be in the
high' 'school next vcar, after which
he' presented ithe -diplomas to the
Henlor class, stating that he hoped
that tliev : would all attend colle&e

- Fridav morning. Mr. Milam called
the pupils together for memorial ex
ercises. Mr. Milam spoke on the
greater importance of memorial ob
servance because of our boys who
have given their lives on the fields
of foreign lands : he spoke of : the
love of our land and flag: of the
great responsibility of the public
school teacher who must plant the
need of patriotism in the hearts of
the foreign children and keep the fire
burning in lives of all rising genera
tions, r The pupils ' had prepared
. reading and songs, which filled out
the urogram. At the close a rising
vote - was - extended to Mrs. Oliver.
who had been in the school so long
and was now leaving, for her great
work among the pupils,
r ... The alumni gave the senior class
' a reception Saturday evening. . The
invitation was clever and when the
seniors were finally received into
the alumni as full-fledged members
tliov sure gave a sigh of relief. . . ,

v Country Districts Opposed
; As will be seen in the above table
Ashland voted against every measure
excepting irrigation, Roosevelt high-
. way, soldiers and 'sailors education
and market roads. --
The striking feature of the elec
tion in addition to the small vote
cast was the strong antl sentiment In
the distant country districts. In all
these districts the measures were
snowed under while in the more
densely populated parts of the valley
the affirmative vote was heavier.
Outside of Medford and Ashland,
however, the sentiment was general
ly against the entire program.

was nono too good and when a man
is hot he wants something to drink

So when the doughboys and the
artillery and tho signal corps began
sending representatives bark to visit
the dressing-stations the Salvation
Army came to the fore with those
Italian lemons, beaucoup sugar and
barrels of clean, cold water, which
they brought up on a Ford delivery
truck. Every Yank who got within
range of that iemouado threw away
his cigarette and made a dive tor'his

Another thing that was imported
for use in the emergency was mos
