D, C 4 AS AN ARTIST "As an artist, Leopold Oodowsky Is the master of them all, says James Ilunoker. "He is a musical alche mist, who turns everything he touches into living gold, so that it becomes illumined like a beautiful concealed Grecian lamp, when the button is pressed. The compositions he ana lyzes, seem like new, yet he doesioth ing to them but reveal hidden beau lies already in the music. He treats ench piece as a deep student of Scrip ture might a beautiful liible passage, drawing out its subtle beauties and truth. His interpretations stand out in the mind's eye like a bas-relief, the phrase lines being as finely drawn as in a beautiful etching. In fact his nrt is closely akin to etching, in that it takes a fine sense of the art to ap preciate a great etching. His ten fingers, are like ten lovely voices, each revealing the hidden beauties of its part, independent of the others, the whole forming a wonderful web of marvelous polyphony so transcen dental at times, that only the initiated can fully appreciate it all. I once called him 'super-man' of piano playing. Nothing like him as fat as I know is to be found in the history of piano playing since Chopin. He is a pianist for pianists, and I nm glad to say that the majority will recog nize this fact." Mr. Oodowsky will appear in Med ford at the 1'age Theater on next Tuesday evening, January 25. . Mi Notice To my many friends and patients, 1 wish to state that I have decided to remain in Medford, and continue my practice of medicine and surgery. I also wish to state that while I have closed the Dow hospital until a more suitable location is secured, that 1 have made arrangements with a good hospital to admit my patients for sur gical and obstatretical service.

Mrs. Gulovson is well acquainted with our valley, having been a resident h'te previous to her marriage. The family Is expected to soon make their resi dence here. Miss Uetta Ellington, who has been quite ill from a severe cold Is much improved and able to be around again Mr. J. It. Rowe wus appointed as road supervisor for this district. Much interest was aroused over the appoint ment, due to the re bet n g two good men from this immediate district out for the position. Tho weather still continues to give us some rain each day, contrary to the hopes of our farmers, who would like to see enough dry weather to put the soil in condition for plowing. Vet, though the rain has been rather dis agreeable, the stock men have had lit tlo to complain of. The feed has been good and most of our barns still hold a plentiful supply of hay. In order to shorten tho time and brighten the hours of winter, many of the families have grouped together and enjoyed several pleasant parties, where they mingled together till .he early hours of morning. Many of tho early spring flowers are making their appearance above the soil. These little harbingers and an early caster are strong indications of an early spring. The Ladies' Industrial club met last week with rMs. C. E. AVUhite, where plans were laid for a program to be given at the date of the annual meet ing in February. Mrs. J. A.. Cook, who has been suf fering for some lime from tho effects of a b.id fall, is improving slowly.

INI FROST SERVICE IS REQUESTED SALEM, Jan. 7V first matter of distinctly lot:. I li:vn. lancu to Ja k son county to i on: into the pros -nt ssion of the leglslfl ture, is embodied in a joint memorial to t he dnpnrt- ment of n;n icult uro. introduced in the bouse by lieprt sentativi s Sheldon and Carter, asking that (iepartmcnt to j maintain .uninterrupted the fixst-; warning service with which ihe weather bureau has been serving the fruit growers of the Itoguo river val ley during the critical spring months, for several years past. j The memorial reads as follows: , To the Honorable the Secretary of Agriculture of the United States of America : Your Memorialists, tho Legislative Assembly of tho State of Oregon In regular session assembled, respect fully represent that: Whereas, your department through Its weather bureau, has, for a num ber of years, maintained a most ef ficient and valuable service In the Kogue Hiver Valley, Oregon, in sup plying the fruit growers and others of that section with frost warnings dur ing the blossoming and critical pe riod of the months of March, April and May of each year, and Whereas, this service has proven of inestimable value to the fruit grow ers of that section as a guide in the taking of measures for the preven tion of frost damage to their crops, whereby many hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of fruit crops have been saved., and Whereas, the fruit growers of that district, many of whom were at first skeptical as to tho value of frost pre vention measures, have rapidly grown to appreciate the value of the same by reason of the results obtained dur ing tho years this servico has been maintained by tho weather bureau, and uro building up a stable horticul turar practice of frost prevention measures under the direction of the weather bureau's representative sent to tho valley each spring. Therefore, be it resolved, that the legislative assembly of tho stato of Oregon earnestly petitions the depart ment of agriculture to maintain the ROME Business depression in Italy is characterized by Siuor Olivetti, a deputy in 'parliament and industrial and economic expert, as part of "a world crisis." He attributes this situa tion not only in Italy hut in France, Kngland and America to the restric tion of consumption and to limitation of mony. lie expresses the opinion that all countries must pass through this condition in order to attain eco nomic reconstruction. Signor Olivetti sees an encouraging sign In the fact that strikes and labor agitations are becoming less frequent and less serious in Italy. Ho says this indicates that the working men reali.o the difficulties through which all in dustries are passing. Nevertheless un employment is characterized as grave and increasing. tJermau competition already is hav ing a bad effect on Italian mechanical industries. Woollen manufacturers are operating only three or four days a week am! hosiery and India rubber fac tories are working on reduced hours. No new ships are being laid down he cause of the uncertainty of futuro naval construction. The once flour ishing automobile industry of Italy only just holds its own In tho face of ever increasing obstacles to exporta tion and the diminution of the homo market,. . ltoth exports and Imports have de creased In Italy, according to figures just made public covering a period up to last September. Tho decline In ex ports Is attributed by Signor Olivetti to labor troubles, unfavorable ex change rates and tho uncertain condi tion of foreign markets. The reduction lu Imports Is ascribed to the exchange and unsteadiness in the price of raw materials.
