IT STAY
With Ilia heart glowiue flow the
Wirtuth of bis reception iu Medford,
Kt(ln Markfiam, the famous poet aud
thf dew of American poets, departed
this forenoon on the Shasta train for
Jlaiiburg where he lectures tonight,
and Medford will ever feel gratoful for
the visit of this noted man who great-
)y Increased his number of local
friends and admirers during his short
slay here by bis geniality and demo
cratic demeanor.
Not only did he captivate a fairly
large - audience in the high school
auditorium with his lecture of last
night, hut he took the high school stu
dent body complete captive by his im
promptu lecture before them this mor
ning, during which he gave much of
.bis main lecture and only ceased en
tertaining and reciting hlB poems in
time to be rusheu over to the depot to
catch his train.
- Mr. Markham was a distinct sur
prise to Medford with his magnetic
personality, wit, humor, learning and
philosophy, as shown by his almost
conversational style of informal talk
introducing the reading of his poems
and between his readings. Kora man
69 i'cara old he showed pleasing men
tal and physlcal..vignr, and a., kindly
and sympathetic attitude towards all
the world. ' "! t i ;-
' Ills delightful Interpretations, of his
poems and his readlngS.of them with
fine lire and elocutionary effect nialtes
his public appearance all tho more
.welcome and appreciated. And thru-
.out all his lecture- ho refers to his
love for Orcgoni'the state of his birth,
'which he had not seen until this week
from the time he moved away with
Ills mother from Oregon City to Cali
fornia when five years old.
Of course Mr. Markham did not read
all his many poems, but only selected
ones, and he closed his lecture lust
night without having read his most
famous effort, "Tho Man With the
Hoe,'' but the audience was not to bo
denied' and forced the whlto-haired
and white-bearded poet by long con
tinued applause and shouts of "The
.Man. With tho IIoo," to read that
worl(j famous poem. His rending of it
gave, each hearer a new insight into
that classic. .
Following last night's lecture an In
formal 'reception followed during
which all present were Introduced to
'and shook hands with Mr. Markham,
and tho domestic class of tho high
uchool served tee cream and cakes.
The evening's enjoyment was much
enhanced by Mrs. C. C. McCnrdy's
piano solo preceding the lecture, nnd
the vocal splo following It by Mrs.
.Tames Ilnyes, accompanied by
Ceorge Andrews.
Mr. Mnrkham's appearance
was under the auspices of thu high
school, and although the high school
tost about $.10 through tho lecture re
ceipts falling that far short of the
guarantee, this loss Is more than made
up by giving Medford such a treat In
the appearance of so famous a man. '
Mrs.
hero
ibis week's screen offering at the
Page theatre will oe "The Mask,"
Col. Win. N. Sellg special production,
opening Its engagement today. "The
Mask" is a story by Arthur Hornblow,
Jack Holt and Hedda Nova are seen in
the leading parts. Holt has a dual
role, that of twin brothers, Kenneth
and "Handsome Jack" Traynor. A
most extraordinary situation is pre
sented when Handsome Jack, believ
ing Kenneth lost In a shipwreck, at
tempts to pose as the husband of his
brother's wife in order to obtain a for
tune. The reappearance of Kenneth,
however, comes about In a most dra
matic climax. The locale of the story
includes the Traynors' San Francisco
home and the picturesque diamond
fields of South Africa. In the support
ing cast are "Mickey" Moore, Fred
Malatesta, Janice Ionsdale, Bryon
Munson, Janice Wilson and William
Clifford. ,
"The County Fair" at Rialto
The younger generation Is not ac
quainted with the charms of the old
stage classic, "The County Fair," but
if it Is anything like the wonderful
picture seen In preview at the Klalto
theatro this morning its fume was well
earned. This production, made by the
skillful exponent of the dramatic art,
Maurice Tourncur, opens at the Rialto
for four days engagement today, and
attendance marks no doubt will be
strained to the breaking point.
With some splendid photography,
flue selection ns to members of tho
cast, and Incomparable direction, "The
County Fair" should vie for honors
with any big nttrnction that has play
ed hero in a long time. The picture
Is neither too long nor too short be
Ing just long enough to tell tho story
and give the characters time to Inter
pret their roles, and Just short enough
to mulio the audiences want some
more.
The cast features Uutlor, together
with Helen Jerome Eddy, one of the
most promising of screendom's lead
ing women; Kdy the Chapman, prom
inent character actress; Wesley Harry,
frockle-fnced youngster,' who Is. now a
star by his own right; William V.
Mong, chnractor actor; Arthur Hons
man, old-time Kdlsou leading muu, and
John Stcppling.
According to those who know the
stage play, "Tho County Fair" has
lost nothing In its transition to films;
In fact, it Is said to have gnlned much.
It Is an attraction that should enjoy a
good run at the Rialto, and the story
of the mortgage, the raco and tho ro
mance will prove mighty popular.
Hunter LaMnr at the organ, ns well
as added attractions, complete a pleas

HEATH'S DRUGSTORE
The San Tox Store '
109 East Main Street.
An audience that filled the taber
nacle gathered last -evening to hear
another ineswage from Dr. liulgin, the
evangelist. The Odd Fellows and He
becaha filled nearly the entire middle
section of the building. Dr. Hulfin
addressed a special message of wel
come to them and spoke of the good
work of the order. Some thirty in a
special delegation from Iloseburg
were also present. They came all that
distance to express to Medford and
the evangelistic party their interest in
the work done at Koseburg and to
lend encouragement to the work here.
This evening the Knights of Pythias
will attend In a body, when Dr. uulgin
will speak on "What 1 Believe, and
Why I Dellove It." It Is a strong mes
sage.
Among the helpful things said In
the message last night are the fol
lowing, on the subject of "Jonathan
and David":
'The love of Jonathan and David
was the love of two brothers."
'The one damning sin which is
cursing the flag and tho church today
is selfishness."
'I would rather try to save a bei-r-
guzzling German than to try and save
a selfish man or woman."
"What is the trouble with the hu
man race? It is sin,"
'What is sin? It is being out of
tune with God."
"Kin means missing the mark.
God means you hit the bull's eye. The
bull's eye is not your standard, but
God's."
"You Odd Fellows could not do
business if it were not for religion."
"Where is the institution that went
ahead and got men fit to join your
lodge? -Then you ought to Join it."
'Don't wait till man is pauperized
before you help him."
Tile evangelist pointed out the goed
work of the lodges, but clearly show
ed that religion has paved the way for
nil of tliem by Its nlturistic teachings,
nnd to be logical, lodge men, of all
men, should be in the church.
At the recciptlon smoker given last
night at the homo of Dr. Conroy by
