ALSO MAKERS OF g Ri-MOIDS (Tablet or Granules) mD iMnmccTinu I The management of the Med ford Chanibor pt Commerce has been ad vised that Herbert Outhbert, the ex ecutive secretary of the Pacific North west 'Tourist association will be in Medford 011 Tuesday evening and that he will attend the forum luncheon on Wednesday noon. The 1'aclfic Northwest Tourist as sociation Is an organization which has as its object the settlement of the lands of the Pacific northwest and this is being accomplished by syste matic advertising of the scenic as well as commercial resources of this ter ritory. Kxtracts of the story "Youbetcher land" by Irvin Cobb in the Saturday Kvening Post are to be used this year and no less than 100,000 will have their attention called to southern Ore gon. "The Paclfi? Northwest Tourist as sociation has had an annual incomo of $02,500 of which Oregon has con tributed $25,000 with Washington giv ing a like amount and the province of British Columbia contributing $12, 500. The Oregon legislature, now in ses sion, is being asked to make an ap propriation of $50,000 of which $37, 500 will go to the Pacific Northwest Tourist association to enable it to operate under the advanced cost of advertising space and $12,500 for tho establishment of and management of an- Oregon Tourist Bureau. Every inquiry received by the Pa cific Northwest Tourist association is sent to tho Medford Chamber of Com merce, which sends every prospective tourist a communication, calling their attention to the advantages of Med ford and Southern Oregon in general. Of the 1200 Inquiries received by the Medford Chamber of Commerce from all sources since the first of last April, more than 50 per cent were the result of the efforts of the Pacific Northwest Tourist association and therefore it is natural that legislators from southern Oregon lend their sup port for the increased appropriation. The State Chamber and Portland Chnmber of Commerce have given their endorsement. ASHLAND, Jan. IT One must be at least six years olil In order to start In school today, which date witnesses the opening of the second semester of the school year. The readjustment of all classes, except beginners, took place In the respective schools last Friday, preliminary to the "grand opening" today, when each pupil was expected to be on hand promptly at 9 o'clock a. m. Especially are all pupils, who have recently located here, urged to perfect the entrance requirements. Beginners must have reached the age of six years on or before March 1 prox., and register for attendance at least by Monday, Jan. 24, seven days grace being allowed following opening of the second semester. Boundaries of territorial limitations as applying to the respective schools, for beginners only, Imply that all liv ing east of Second street shall go to Hawthorne school, white those resid ing west of Second street shall attend the Junior high school building on North Main street. Espionage in a limited sense, espec ially where It Is employed to best ad vantage for all concerned, is suggest ed by the school authorities, who em phasize the fact that "Regular and prompt attendance of pupils upon school determines In great measure the kind of work accomplished by any pupil, therefore school officials will regard it as a kindness for anyone to report to them the names of children who are not in school. Such cases will at once be investigated, and all responsible means used to get them in school." In line with this suggestion It will be well to heed the hint given, and thus perhaps avoid Invoking the compulsory phase of tho school atten dance enactment. G. A. Z. Harris of Washington, D. C, and Frank Calbert and family of Alexis, 111., are guests at the Holland. TALENT, Jan. 17. Three basketball games were staged at Wolters hall Friday night.
