Seven citizens, good and true, will participate, with members of tbe city council In framing a municipal budget. Under the luw. they must be freeholders. They may possibly be permitted to possess a little oil or mining stock on the side, , but absolutely they shall not bo con nected with any municipal corporation according to the letter of the Btatute. The committee named Includes F. D. Wagner, J. A. McGce, C. C: Weisen- - burger, 11. M, Shoiidy, W. M. Barber. W. A. Patrick, nnd V. F Loomls. The basis for approximating the size of the budget for 1 1 2 2 must be graduated on a plane not to exceed six per cent higher than the total expense account for the year preceding, the budget for 1921 having amounted to $52,887.26, bond Interest requirements having taken nearly one-half this amount. However, the council has considerable latitude insofar as Iovyi.ig specific sums for meeting interest on Its obli gations. In the meantime the commit tee named will meet with the council from time to time, a report to be forth coming on the first of .November, tbe date' for holding, the next aldermanic session. On Nov. 2 local voters will pass judgment, at a special" election, on the interminable bond question. This will be In regard to the Issuing of $18,000 In municipal securities of the "potential" classification as distin guished from a lot of others which Vhave already been marketed, the total issue being $03,387 for paying current indebtedness and refundiug other obli gations which have matured. To sim plify matters, only two polling places will be established, the central one be ing at city hull, a circumstance which lessens both trouble and expense. Gen erally these special elections are mere ly perfunctory occasions anyway, merely serving to observe the letter of the law. . Promptly at 9 o'clock thls'morning, the Jackson County Teachers Institute convened at the high school bujldlng, the attendance being nominal. Supt. Briscoe, of the local schools, welcomed the educators in the opening address. A leading feature o(, the afternoon pro. gram was the, address on "Marriage and Divorce In Relation to the . Schools", delivered by S. Teuscher, Jr. a talk which the Parent-Teacher asso rtationurged all citizens to hear; and profit thereb Although the formal program tor the three-day conference has already been published lu these columns under the heading of "Notes", special attention is called to the fol lowing totalled particulars: , Wo are' meeting upon common grounds for (he discussion of 'common jroblems looking toward a . Common good'. " - All sessions of the Institute are open to -the public. , ' ' ' Goneral sessions will be held in the high sshool auditorium. , Evening 'sessions are omitted, i Tile primary section will meet "in the lecture room under' leadership of Mrs. Marietta Browne,, of Rogue River. ..The grammar section, meeting in the auditorium, will be in charge of Ray Henderson, of Central Point. .

An attendance of slvteen Inure is required of every fneher in n. c-nnty i i I. , Miss'Muiiel McCorinick, heeiress to 'two rortunes, granadaughter of the worlds riehest man, John D. Kock4 feller. Her life's ambition is fame in the theatre. Whether It be opera cr "dramn, she does not know, but Miss McCormick -hopes it is opera. She at ends the opera every night lu Its season and goes to every rehearsal. Her dress is black and white, for. she believes one's colors .should express one's personality. Miss MeCor mick said she planned to make her debut last 'year in the Burgh Thoatre. That Is. as famous in Vienna us the Comedie 1'Yancaise Is in Paris. "But the newspapers published about two lines on my work and my study and ulmost a whole iage on who my parents were and 'Who my grandfather was. I was disgusted. I determined that 1 should never appear on the stngo if I could only bo 'sent off by my family." The civil suit of the McComber-, Savldge Lumber company of San Fran cisco against the Big Pines Lumber company of this city for the collection of $29,227.C0, alleged Xr have been' ad vanced ou a contract for lumber, al leged to havo beet, unfulfilled, was be gun In the federal court this morning before Judge C. K. Wolvertori. The lawsuit, which promises to he one of the hardest fought legal actions in the history of southern Oregon is represented on both shies by attorneys of high 'fame in Paciflo Const states. The defense is represented by Attor ney George M. Roberts of this city. and Attorney A. A. Hampson of Port land. The plaintiff is represented by W. L. Crittenden of San Francisco, Joseph T. Webb of San Franoisco, and A.. K Reames of this city. Webb is rated as one of the best- pleaders in the west. ' The action is the outgrowth of a contract ulade June 9, 1920, when lum ber was at tbe peak of war time prices, according to the opening statement to the jury for the defense by Attnney Roberts, who asserted that Immediate ly afterwards lumber began to drop, and alleged that dilatory tactics were adopted thereafter by the plaintiff relative to orders for shipments of lumber under the coutract. cut In this county. Attorney Roberts said that the evidence. would show that the Big Pines Lumber company lived up to its agreement and that by reason of the falling through of the same, the local concern had lost lu the neighborhood of $38,000. The plaintiff, through Attorney Webb, contended that tbe Big Pines QMipany had failed to fulfill their poo its;-:w' toasted f ; TO seal in the delicious Burley ' flavor Once you've enjoyed the toasted flavor you will a!' ways want it holding an annual Institute.
