LOSES TO ASHLAND BY 1 9-36 SCORE The Ashland bnsketeors carried off the first game- of the Medford-ABh-, land series last night on their floor when they won from the Medford )ileh quintet by a 36 to 1ft score. It was the concensus of opinion among the witnesses of last night's battle that tho Medford squad outclassed their adversaries In practically every phase of straight basketball, but the consistent work of Herr, foul shooter for Ashland, In converting free tosses called by Keferee Bohler piled up Ashland's overwhelming advantage. The local hoopers showed some of the clever work displayed in the Hills Academy gamo and local fans were well satisfied with their performance. The .Medford men -were unable to open up and play their-own, style of gamo because of the close refereclng and thero wus strong feeling, among the spectators and general dissatls fctlon over the decisions of Bonier, a University of Oregon man, whose method of handling the game was entirely different from what Southern Oregon teams have been used to. This condition mado the game ragged and uninteresting, but it is hoped, that when Medford and Ashland again tangle on tho Katatorlum floor to night thero will be a better opportu nity for a fair comparison of the strength of tho two teams. A board of arbitration composed of Superintendent Rrlscoe , of Ashland, Superintendent Smith of Medford, eferec Homer, Mr. Tederlck of Cen tral Point and Mr. Jewell of Talent today decided that Kol Andre, a Utile verslty of Oregon man, should referee and have complete charge of to night's mix. Medford supporters are. satisfied with Andro and; feel that tonight the- Medford men will put over a strong como back. - Never in tho history, of Southern Oregon sports has more Interest been shown In the Medford-Ashland cham pionship girls series, the t first, of which was won by Ashland' Inst night when the Itcd nnd White girls, scored a basket In the extra- period of play. The game ended with a 3t to Zl tic and It wns nip and tuck between the two evenly matched sextets from the first-whistle to the last.

That Japan's foreign trade would show no remarkable in crease of Imports In the future and that consequently there would be no marked decreases In the' amount of Japan's specie holdings, was the opin ion voiced by Governor Inouye of tho bank ot Japan addressing the. Tokio bankers. .Governor .Inouye was referring to existing adverse conditions in Jain anese commercial and industrial life "The best measures for tiding over the preserft depressed situation," said Governor Inouye, "are, in the first place, to reduce the cost of production to the lowest possible point. The cost of production of various merchandise in this country Is disproportionately high, compared with the level in other countries.' With a, high cost of pro ductlon, Japanese merchandise cannot possibly compete with manufacturers of otner 'countries, .and this forms a great obstacle to the development ot. the export trade of Japan. Reduction of the coBt of production Is, accordingly, not only- a matter of Imperative' necessity of the moment, but Ib also good for ths permanent In terests of the country.- It' may bring about a fall In wages and dimmish the buying powor of tho lower and middle classes for a tlxnc, but 'th(s must' be tolerated for tho-.purpqse of 'attaining the fundamental consolidation of the financial. world. - ' , -..;v .- Secondly, our manufacturers, trad ers, bankers, insurance and shipping circles are required to make concerted efforts for, maintaining the market which was developed abroad for Jap anese merchandise during the war per iod. The loss of the commercial field acquired by the efforts' of our traders and manufacturers since the great war would -bo tantamount to the loss of japan's national dignity and prestige." !LE ED FOR IMMORAL , ATLANTIC JM"W N.

Once upon a time In-the Kingdom of N'cver-There, thoro lived a man called On time. This man,' through his labor, had amassed a considerable fortune, but the people . didn't like him because ho was so energetic and they were so lazy. Their country was gradually going to ruin because the people wore so shiftless and idle. Tho king of this land was Idleness XIV. He was lazier than the people. Therefore, when On Time began to got. wealthy the king decided to have him punished. . The land next u Never-There wan a, very industrious country called Never-Late. Its king was a goodly appearing King, but he was as had as Idleness XIV. He had a daughter named Punctuality, who was the fair est jnalden in the kingdom. On Time soon had to flee for his ll . because tho king was going to execute him. Ho finally reached the land of Never-Litte and found the people rebelling against their king, because he had. been discovered. On-Timo was walking through tMe streets of Work Well- when he saw Princess .Puncutallty being taken to a dungeon. .He fell In love with her and determined to rescue -her. ..Ho came to .the dungeon that night and filed the bars through so the Princess could get out. They were pufsued but ho had brought two swift horses to 'ride nnd they soon outdis tanced the guards. They kept on until they reached Delightful-Laud. There ho ,,wooed tho Princess : and married her."' . ' ' . .. . ...,;.' Tho peoples' king had just, died so they chose On Time for' their king.
