' the iifl'uhle hostess '"of the' Foley Springs suniinor re P. pcrt, left yesterday aftor closing her celebrated watering place for ,.tho stlason. THERE should be a large attendance at the meeting tonight, 'to consider the formation of ak'dford Golf club. There is no question of strong juiblic sentiment in 'tavor of such an organization. The problem is to crystallize this sentiment- into effective and con structive action. This cap only be possible, if the decisions arrivedat represent not one factum, but the city as a whole. Therefore it is to be hoped that everyone interested in this project attends tonight's meeting. "V No city in the state is better situated than Medford to support successful golf club. AVith its delightful climate, with the cstablinh inent of a comprehensive water system, with its high grade of citizen ship with its many attractions ns a tourist center, a good golf course would answer u genuine community need. No feature would .he a belter drawing card, for the eastern busi nessman, jookiug: fpv (iniore attractive climate in which to live'thau a golf course. (J'olf more than any other sport, is universal in its ap peal. ' It is no longer an exclusive game. Its devotees represent all classes, rich and poor, young and old, women as well as men. Portland has a number of golf courses. On one course alone, this last year, the Eastmoreland course, :!!),()()() cards were issued. Kugeue Oregon has a golf course, so has Salem, so has C'orvallis; all of them arc .liberally supported, ami conspicuously successful. , Certainly Medford can support a golf club, if Eugene, Salem and Corvallis can. Medford had a golf club once, but. it died. The reasons for its demise are fairly, apparent, today, and that experience should serve as a valuable warning to the promoters (if the present venture. One thing is certain, if a golf club is to succeed, it must lie a rep resentative organization, ami the expense involved per member, must he low enough to give the average wage slave who wants to play I ii-,,!!',, 1, ,..

IN THE RUSH and turmoil of modern life, many people forget, how many of the pleasures we now enjoy, would have been impossible but for the service and sacrifice of the early pioneers. We whirl along our paved highways today, covering ground iu'iiii hour that couldn't luiyo been covered in a week, three score years ago, and seldoin think that we did not do all the work ourselves. , The Ashland and Medford chapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution-appreciating this fact, have decided to erect a monument on the Pacific Highway near Phoenix, commemorating the work of the f irst good road builders in Southern Oregon; This is a splendid idea, and worthy. of an organization consecrated to the perpetuation of American ideals, and the stimulation of patri otic remembrance. Not only (lie people of Southern Oregon, but the people, of the en tire country,, as they motor through the valley hereafter. will be re- minded of what, the hardy 'pioneers accomplished' and will thereby W:'. , TPh w rult of one lawsuit is another.

RipplingRhqmGS Valt Mason - ERA OF BLOODSHED. , , STILL bloodshed is tho modem fad, my protests don't avail ; in almost every little grad some slayers are in jail. All kinds of folks behind the bars are locked, for gory deeds; famed clcrgy , men and movie stars, and dames in widow's weeds. The furies, free and running loose, urge crime with every breath, nut) any frivolous excuse will do for sudden death. When all the nations were at strife, and gents slew scores of gents, men learned to think that human life is not worth fifteen cents. They carried back this grim belief from scenes of death and gore; and this delusion, fraught with grief, has spread from shore to shore. And so we hear the crack of guns throughout this country wide, and every day we're planting tons of delegates who died. The husband' shoots his loving wife because she wears punk lids, the grandma takes the butcher knife when she'd correct the kills. The wires arc burdened with the news of murders and of brawls, notin the, alleys and tho mews, but in the. stately halls. And men of stand ing go to. jail, and queenly dames are there; and all my protests don-'t avail explaining my despair. We're wasting foreeton lit tle things, denouncing minor flaws, while yet the armed assassin springs and laughs to scorn our laws. , tory .occurred at .Harper's Ferry, ..W. ,Va.? .; ' -.'' ;.
