This re era, to an Eastern Stnr Income tax, n behnlf of the Masonic home, from vhich, for the time being, no mem bers are exempt, regardless of their oven ties cither profesionully, com- nercially or industrially. Moreover, he tax is specific instead of ad va- orehi, and it doesn't require any ex ert to figure the amount. Simnlv ake your waist measure, and pay nto the coffers of Alpha Chapter as nany pennies as the circumferente ndicates in inches. Supposing th. verage circumference is 40 inehua, nd tho chapter's membership is Hoi), ho result is an even $100 surtax. IMyment is implied by Tuesday even- ng, March 15, and if returns have liol already been made by that date. ne&suremenls and ready calculations an bo reckoned on the spot. In oddl- ion to routine business, a special ommlttee in charge will have a fine rogram and servo refreshments.

Several ladies of ample proportions ruefully ponder over this ncomo tax feature, which in their ases wilt approximate an even dol- nr. apiece, and it's too late now to nter upon a hunger strike in ef- orts to reduce the penny ante. To rccapitualate a few essential eatures In connection with tho Ma- onic . and Eastern Star Home, now linder construction in the vicinity of orest Grove, it Is only necessary to nention that tho prospect implies several units the initial cost to he 300,000, of which sum the Masonic odges proper assume $240,000, and he; Eastern Star chapters $60,000. ocally, tho quota of Ashland Lodiie Ko, 2.

I . in older that Medl'oid citizens might be informed as to the result of the conference ut Portland on Friday and Saturday of last week as regards Crater Lake development plans, they were invited to ride to Ashland yes terday morning in tin. private car of ice-l"resldent E. o. MoCormick. of the Southern Pacific Hallway. Besides K. O. .McCormick, there was present Horace Albright repre senting the National Park bureau and A. It. C. Dohrman of San Francisco who is president of the Yosemite Park company. A general outline was given as to how proper accommoda tions could bo given the public at Crater Lake and at the same time make an Investment there a profit able one. Alfred L. Parkhurst. tho present owner of the Crater Lake concession, has made a very liberal offer for the sale of his Interest there and it is now believed that a better under standing exists ns to his willingness to accept the ideas as advanced by tho National Park bureau. Medford citizens who were present yesterday morning were II. L. Wal ther, V. H. Vawter, Win. F. Isaacs, Oeorgo L. Treichler, George T. Col lins, C. n. Oates, T. E. Daniels, H. O. Frobach and M. Montgomery. At the Page He had motor cars, bull dog.s diam ond rings and pendants for the girl he thought he wanted, but he lacked happiness. His vision was clouded by a surfeit of things without real mental value. And strangely enough a blind man opened his eyes. Such in brief Is the theme of "The Man Who Had Everything," presenting tho favorite screen star Jack Plckfurd. In the role of the profligate son Jack gives one of his best portrayals. "The Man Who Had Everything" played today and to morrow at the Page theatre. At the Rialto People who are always wondering how Tom Mix manages to put new stunts into every picture he makes, are leaving the Rialto theatre this week with their wonder Increased. Mix is appearing in his latest photodrama of tho West, entitled "The Texan." New specimens of daring exploits stud the production, and tho picture Is prov ing a delight to both the dyed-ln-the- wool Mix fan and the casual picture goer. C. OF COMMERCE IS STRICTLY SECRET There has been some objection by members of the Chamber of Commerce on account of the return envelopes of the primary, election and referendum on the community chest being num bered, because there Is a belief that it will become known as to how they voted. No such apprehension should be en tertained by the members. It is neces sary that return envelopes be num bered so that the same may be checked with the member's name and thereby avoid fraud. Whenever an envelope is received having the number of a mem ber who has not paid his dues to April 1st, It is placed to one Bide and unless a chock for the amount is inclosed cov ering dues to the date mentioned, the vote Is not counted. The ballots are not opened until after the polls are closed. This is done by the tellers who have absolutely no access to the membership numbers. There is no possible chance for anyono to know how any member voted. One ballot was received last week with the number of the return envelop erased. The result of this necessitates throw ing out of this ballot, because no check is .possible as to ;lt coming from a member who has not paid his dues to the first of April.
