OF O.SPEAKER Tho county authorities have re ceived a petition from the state pa role board at Salem asking them to sign an application for a parole for Pan fJoodan, sentence! from this county to a two-year term for forKery. Sheriff Terrill announces he will not sign and no decision has been reached by tho prosecutor and trial jurist. Good an recently attempted to commit suicide In his cell, when he learned that the girl ho represented as his wife had tried to kill herself when she was discovered clandestinely writing letters to a convict on parole who posed as a cousin. Mrs. Goodan is also serving a sentence for forgery. Cloodan and his woman compan ion were captured in Colorado last fall after an exciting career of chock forging. They left the city after cashing a number of checks, and were arrested in Colorado, when they at tempted to pass n check drawn on the First National Rank of this city. They were brought back and plead guilty. Goodan was a truck driver and a steady going youth up to tho time ho commenced keeping company with the woman, whose real identity Is veiled in mystery, but is said to have relatives living near , Jacksonville. She. too, will be eligible for parole within a short time. She formerly worked as a waitress In this city. The genuine bears this signature 30c f Dr. Henry B.

At no time in the history of Med ford has a record been made by the old Commercial club of weekly meet ings as has been maintained by the present Chamber ot Commerce.. The forum tomorrow will bo the forty-first consecutive one held. The attendance lias been increasing, whereas it has been the belief of some that as tho forums continue throughout the year, the interest in them would divinlsh and attendance drop off. As long as a sincere effort Is made to secure speakers upon subjects of an educational nature, or where the program is carefully prepared to pre sent topics of local Interest, the for ums will. continue as an agency for the development of Medford.

' What Kind of Men Do Women Most Admire? Flatterer or Truthful "Flattery la like champagne De lightful while taking but sickening in Ats nfter effect." Thus does Norma! Talmadge, the bewitching little motion picture star, describe that gentle art whose use has been in vogue ever since man could speak and woman would listen. "Flattery has toppled . thrones, changed history, separated thousands of happy couples, peopled the under world and divided kingdoms," contin ues Miss Talmudge. "Nor is it an nrt exclusively used by mere man. In the case of flattery wo can reverse Kip ling's famous lines "The female of the species is more deadly than tho male" a man capable of saying pretty things in a pleasing way can easily mould to liis desire most any suscept ible woman or girl." And it is this same theme that mukes "Yes or No?" Miss Talmadgo's latest photoplay, Instructive as well as entertaining. In It tho audience Is shown the male flatterer.

Father Michael O'Klanagan, acting president of Sinn Fein, who sent the famous telegram to Premier Lloyd George asking him what steps he proposed to muke peace In Ireland before Christmas and yes terday broke off relations with tho pre mier, is described by one who knows lilm as "the sort of man who would not nesitato to argue with tho pope himself." ' "When he was curate of Crossna". says Professor Robert Mitchell Henry In "The Evolution of Sinn Fein," "Father O'Flnnagan had taken a very active part on the side of Sinn Fein in the East Cavan election, when Ar thur Griffith was returned. "Soon after ho was deprived by his bishop, Dr. Coyne, of all his faculties as a priest, including the right, to say mass. The technical offenso for which ho was punished was that of having addressed meetings within the boun daries of three parishes of the local parish priests. '"Everyone knew that te real reason for his punishment was not the techni cal offense, but the fact that his siieeches had been strongly, and even violently, Sinn Fein. "The people of Crossna retorted by shutting up the parish church, and refusing to allow mass to be said in it by anyone else." Alter the Easter rising of 1918, Fat her O'Flnnagan took Hunmnn de Valera's place. In appearance, ho is described as n smiling man In early middle age, with Just n suspicion of silver In his jet black hair. Ills conversation Is easy and witty, and on the platform he Is nn effective speaker, with u crisp com nuuicl of epigram.
