burg squad on the Natntorium floor in
what; promises to be one of the hardest
fought games of "the Southern Oregon
conference series. The scores of re
cent inter-conference games have been
running so close and the contending
teams seem to be so evenly matched
that the interest In thiB season's series
has been 'unparalleled by -those of for
mer years. The-Ashland hoon-squad
defeated the Orange and Black men in
two. games Thursday and last night,
the score of the first being 18 to 17
and the latter 29 to 26, though local
witnesses of the games maintain that
tile Granite City five, was outplayed
practically throughout both games by
the-' Roseburg five, which was handi
capped by Ashland's small floor.
However it Is aft undisputed fact
that Roseburg has a formidable line
up and the result of tonight's battle
will decide whether or.not she will re
turn to Roseburg with a victory to her
credit. ' If Medford succeeds in winning
tonight the fight for the southern Ore

A Message Concerning ELECTRICAL HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES to the Housekeepers of Medford and Vicinity
Within the last few j'eai's thousands of the housckeep-1
ers of America have come to know the value of electrical
household pliances as a, result of; knowledge supple- ,
menied by actual experience. .. n
' Even the housckeepei-s who have not installed tho va-'
nonelectrical time, labor and money-saving conveniences
do i'AjniaVe to' be hi'gned with very much ''contenting iiiekV
value. What they have neglected to leam for themselves? '
they -arc finding out from-many of their friends' who arc'
today enjojTing the possession of different useful electri
cal devices. 1 ' ' ,
The Stumbling Block - -',,;.
' !And yet, many of these, women still hesitate to follow
the example of their" friends, believing that in this era of
readjusted prices the cost of . electrical household appli
ances will also be considerably reduced. . , V
An Erroneous Idea ' : . !
For the purpose of correcting their mistaken notion1
in order tliat tliey may nb longer feel justified in depriv
ing themselves of the comfort,, the convenience and the
cconrtniy which they really desire an4 to which." they, are.
.'entitled this message is being given widespread public- '
ity. ' . -" ' .
. : ; ' v. Has There Been Profiteering? , ,';.. : -
Accusations of profiteering in commodities during and
since the war have been so general that it is only natural ;
for the average person, unaware of real conditions, to be
lieve that the electrical industry may also have been guil
ty of maintaining artificial price levels. . . ;
; What Are the Facts?
Durin"- the war the general tendency, in the electrical
industry was to' keep prices as nearly norniai as possiblji.'
It was felt, throughout the trade that this policy f while in-, ;'
. volving tinaincial.sacrificesVwould' ultiindtely prove bene- ;
ficial, encotu-agipg iheiunintci'upted increase' in the 'iisej '
and appreciation of .electrical household appliances. 116-
suits justified this attitude. Ah- enoiTftous. increased de- ',
. mahd,' foi-eing increased production, led, the way to more;
economical costsiof production enabling the clectrical in
dxistry to keep prices' nedrer n6imal than many, other' in
dustries.' Prices' on '-many electrical liowphold aipplianccs'
have advanced only a small ' percentage over pre-war '
prices:';,' . ' , .''''.''.'
' . Take"; for example, the electric .washing machine, one :
of' the i -most useful labbr-savin'g .dyithat can be em- ,
ployed in the home the actual advance since 1914 has not
been over 40 per cenVwliei-caaAy-otnto commodities .
hiii'e advanced from 100 per ccht lo 500 per cent. In the
case' of the electric irwingmaciniijo,' another big house-'
hold help, the advance has beOn less than 40 per. cent. . '
' 1 Radical Reduction Impossible ' ' ; .
' " On account of such . conipartiycly small ' increases as
.these in a large percentage 'of electriijal hbuseliold' appli
ances, there is' natur ally a smallteK ierf entage of reduc-i .
tion in the electrical industry than. 'one would expect in.-.'-other
industries where the advancq( in prices has " been '
'much great'eiV On the electrical household appliances, '.
the iherease' has been the grt-atcst, there have ah-eady been
some reductions. . ' . ' .. , ;' ';':;,,.".
