'N-i i OF STARS IN ELK AT PAGE THEATRE -.The biggest attraction of the season for theatre goers of southern Oregon will be the Medford Elks Minstrel show which Is to be given at the Page theatre. Feb. 21 and 22. It will be of more than ordinary interest due to the fact that all of the participants arc members of the local lodge of Elks. Following is a complete list of those taking part: ' Goo. T. Collins, Paul McDonald, Ver non H. Vawter, Larry Mann, Jerry Jerome, Herb Alford,' Fletcher Fish. Wm. Vawter, Ted Fish, C. C. McCurdy Fred' .Colvlg, M F. Sheets, W. G. Domergue, Paul Leonard, C. Y. Teng ,wald, Floyd Hart, Geo. Gates, Kenneth Jerome, Victor Danielson, J. A. Callas, Htichter, Dr. J. J. EmmeuB, Geo. T, yjl6on; Jay Gore, Arthur Perry, Chas. Hensolman, Earl Roberts, Raymond Mlksche, Wilson Waite, A. H. Miller, ..Arthur Ha2elrlgg, Herb Launspach and Oeo. A. Codding.

The above list does not Include the many who have given of their time in building the scenery, ettS. The fact of the matter is that .evijry member of the lodge has had his shoulder to the wheel In helping make 4hls show a success and It is up to the public-to give the boys the support tlley deserve.

Great pains have been taken to make this their best effort In the pro duction line and it Is safe to say that there will be no better scenic effects offered the local patrons for a long while to come as the best artists in the country have been employed to turn out master pieces in their lines. The company which contains all of the principal fun Wakers that played the "High Cost of Living" before and many new faces have been added and new novelties Injected throughout the action of the play. A symphonic jazz orchestra is car ried by the company and If you have not heard them, you have never heard real jazz as Mr. Jazz himself would have liked to have heard it played. I FOP, Every now and then the Chamber of Commerce Is fortunate in securing some one of national reputation to ad dress the members of their forums and this week such an event will take place. Dr. Winfleld Scott Hall, who for twenty-five years held the chair of physiology at the Northwestern uni versity and who Is the author of twenty-two text books and treatises on physiology, hygiene and kindred sub jects, will address the forum on Wed nesday at the Medford hotel. He has (lectured In most of the higher educa tional institutions In the United States and Medford Is fortunate in getting a I man of his experience to consent to address Its citizens. The privilege of the forum on Wed nesday is extended to the members of the Medford post of the American Le gion. During the war a number of Medford men, while at the various camps, had the opportunity to hear Dr. Hall and they have all expressed a de sire to hear him again and for that reason the privilege of the forum is extended to the legion members. It Is anticipated that the annex din ing room of the Medford will be too small to hold all who desire to hear Dr. Hall, therefore arrangements are being made for the forum to be held in the large dining, room. . , WASHINGTON, Fob. 14. Revival of the cotton manufacturing industry which for some months had been on the decline, is Indicated in the January cotton consumption report Issued .to day by the cenBus bureau.

Consumption during the six months ended January 31, was 800,000 bales less than In the same period last year, the total being 2,333,855 bales. ., R. A. M. No. 32. tegular Convocation Tues ay, .

"The Love Expert" at Rlalto Helpful hints to girls or boys anx ious to ascertain whether one certain member of the opimslte aex Is respon sive to their respective emotions are I given in "The Love Expert", starring Constance Taliundi'.e, showing at the ' Rlalto theatre. This production is the workmanship of John Emerson uud Anita Loos whose former stories and adaptations for Constanco Tahuadxe since her af filiation with First National Exhibitors Circuit have been greeted by the theatregolng public at large as classic germs of comedy production. As liabs, a romantic boarding-school girl, Connie Is probably in her most delightful characterization. Eschew ing the cut-an-drlod educational sub jects she devotes herself to self instruction in the BCienco of practical love-making, with the result that the board of regents stimulates another sale for the railroad companies thus giving llabs a chance to try out her many formulas.

Story by Famous Novelist "The Turning Point", Is un adapta tion from Robert W. Chambers' noTol of the same title and Miss MacDonald, declared to bo the most beautiful wom an on the screen, gives a splendid in terpretation to the role of Diaua Ten- nant haunted by an untrue rumor of the past, In love with a society idler, and endeavoriug to ward off the dis tasteful attentions of a wealthy man who would willingly bring an unjust disgrace upon her. Katherine MacDonald in her latest feature is now showing at t he Page theatre and her reception hero was enthusiastic. The splendid chances for emotional acting and novel touches of comedy relief Btamp "The Turning Point" as probably tho most interest ing story Miss MacDonald has yet ap peared in.

The Jap quos- tion is virtually settled, and that by AHhland post of the AmerU-un LeKion. They didn't wait for Hi Johnson or Hill Borah to take the initifttlvo either, having- forestalled both those Htates men in a plain and outspoken stand regarding the threatened incursion, JuHt listen to the following rlnninK l-eHOlutions, reeenlly eiiKrosned and forwurded to both house and Honato of congress, also to the Oregon leRis- l:iture, urging those roHpeetlvo bodies to pass restrictive measures in con nection with tho lousing and owner ship of lands on the Pacific roust In general, and specifically in Oregon, more especially our own Itogue lliver - alley. These resolutions were unani mously adopted with a rush, and aro officially signed by Olenn Slmpiton, commander; "Ratio" "Volcott, vlco- commander; Don Spencer, adjutant. Jack nine, chaplain and Will Holmes, t.-easurer.

There 1h nt tho present tlmo under consideration by our Na tional Senate a treaty between the United Htates of America and the Im perial government of Japan, the terms of which, as wo understand it. would render null nnd void the legislation and alien land laws which have been adopted by the Paclfio Coast stute.i: and i "WHEREAS, wo believe that unless some restriction is raised to tho lease and ownership of lands on tho part of Japanese, and that Immigration and custom of picture" bridort ' be imme diately stopped; a condition will re sult which will bo tho end of the Pa cific Const as a whlto man's and an American country. That tho Japan oso have in every place in which they havo become established In this coun try reduced tho value of lands, made Intolerable tho social conditions, and have monopolized the business of ihu communities, resulting in the aban donment of those particular commu nities by the American population, and WHKKKAS, we believe the legisla tion enacted by the various states is not tho result of mere prejudice, hut was made necessary by economic and social conditions; and we further be lieve that tho present proposed troaty is being influenced by the popular fear of straining dlplomantic relations and consequently unfavorable to our Pacific Toast states, and WHEREAS, we believe that any settlement of this question unfavor able to the rights of American citizens would only complicate matters and lead to trouble eventually; and WHEREAS, from our knowledge of tho Japanese and from the close up of the situation that wu have had, wo believe that a show-down Is in evitable; and WHEREAS. If tho saving of Amer ica for Americans would strain the diplomnatlc relations or Jeopardize the peace existing between tho govern ments of the United States nnd Japan: BE IT UNANIMOUSLY RESOLV ED by Ashland Post No. 14, Ameri can Legion. Ashland, Oregon, that these relations be broken at once, and tho question nettled by force of arms if necessary, for once and for ail time to come. Tho foregoing spirited expressions were voiced at one of the liveliest ses sions, which the post has held since its organization. Other progrebsive measures aro being- discussed and adopted in accordance with their mer its. With 72 posts In Oregon out ef a total of 01 favoring some phase of a state bonus, the executive commit tee of Ashland Post Is throwing its intluence back of tho Oregon house bill No. 20:i. wherein a measure of tho cash bonus and loan features are merged. A legion post fund being a requis ite, steps will bo taken to finance, one, without recourse to any drive alterna tives either. Tho Japs, disqualified from becom ing freeholders In our midst, a bar rage of extra heavy artillery wus turned upon the profiteer in which at tack high-power explosives were mix ed on a 50-50 basis with expletive adjectives, minus time-fuse qualifica tions. Briefly stated, the contempti ble slacker was declared to be out elapsed by the wanton profiteer. Of the two, the slacker was denominated a patriot by comparison. -t About 50 members of Ashland post have paid their dues for 1921, and this statement Is a reminder that, if these obligations are not met by' February 2.s, delinquents will be dropped lrom tho rolls, action which will depriv them from wearing that honored em blem, the button of tho American Le gion, a contingency against which every legionnaire should fortify him self In the first-tine of financial entrenchment.
