Koib & Dill iu "Tie Higu Cost of
Loving" will be at the Pago theatre
Sunday night; Feb. 20, that assertion
should cause a mild stampede at the
box office when the seat sale opens
next Fridny as the annual visit of the
two stars is always looked forward to
by the theatregoers, but no doubt this
year as they have revived their big
gest success, the business will be
record breaking.
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.

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

tion of lint cotton during January as

"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.

ASHLAND, Feb. 14. 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. Tho preambles to the reso-
1 itlon present a ntraigh forward
showdown" of tho principles in
volved, while the "Ho it resolved" fea
ture ta a short pithy climax empha
sizing the enacting clause:
WH ICR HAS. 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.
