Favored by the beautiful weather which has marked the past few weeks, with the city dec orated and not a single hitch in the big program an unqualified success for the ontjro undertaking is confi dently expected. No ono. and least of all the ox service man, but can remember the relier and tho Joy which came with the word three years ago that tho trials and uncertainties of war were over. To tho man in the trenches the nrmls tlco meant even life Itself for none HAVE YOU SEEN IT? IT'S THE THING TO DO.

S A T I It 1) A V IlKItT I.YTI.I.I, In Li.iYi'iNt;i:its" knew In battle what the next moment might bring forth. To those at home it meant a lessening of the heavy bur dens and denials which war had heaped one upon another. There is little about war which is con ducivo to gaiety but it is certain that tho anniversary of a victorious peace is n fit time for celebration.' Medford post of the American Le gion has undertaken nn ambitious pro gram for the celebration this year and It is hoped that sufficient interest will be shown to warrant celebration of the day in future years on an equally elab orate scale. Fun Starts Early Tomorrow's schedulo opens with street entertainments along humorous lines which will occupy the timo from 9 a. m. y about 11 o'clock. Tho ex hibit of Hogue river apples In the chamber of commerce building will be open for inspection nfler ten o'clock and shoidd be visited by evoryone In terested in this valley and Its pro ducts. At 11:15 (he high school student body and band will escort their foot ball team to tho gridiron whero they will meet tho Albany high school team in a battle which promises to provide plenty of thrills. At noon in accordance with the proclamation issued by Mayor C. E. (iatcs tho fire whistle will be sounded and all street traffic and other activ ities will cease for n period of two minutes while buglers stationed on the UipB of various buildings blow taps. The mayor's proclamation calls upon citizens to givo this timo to silent homage to those who lost their lives in the great war. Colonel 13. K. Kelly, marshal of the day, at 1 : 30 will lead a monster parade through the business section of the city. Every effort has been put forth to make this attraction as big and as representative as it Is possible to make sueh a procession in a city of this size. Three o'clock ushers In two ovents the Ladles' Auxiliary reception nt tho Legion hall for ladles, and the big smoker at the Natatorlum for men. Big Smoker at Nat Some of tile best boxorB In the north west havo been training for weeks for their appearance in the ring at the smoker. Franklo O'Hrlen of Portland and Hen Dixon of Mcdrord will top tho card with a ten round go that should bo a hummer as both thoBe men are in flno Torni and both nro mlt artists par excellence, Hilly Ryan and Johnny Carlson and Joe Blackburn and Kid Klchio will ninko up two othor matches of six rounds each which hold possibil ities of thrills galore, onie Bnappy preliminaries and, as nn added attrac tion a Ilttlo vuudevlllo betweon bouts, round out this entortalnment. Tho movies which have been grind ing away slnco 11 a. m. will help fill in tlio interim nftor the smoker until 7 p. m. when a band concert will be given in tho city park. Nine o'clock marks the climax in way of ontertnlnment for nt that hour Al ford's orchestra of fourteen pIoceB will get tinder way nnd the grand march lod by officers of the legion will start the annual Armistlco day ball. Elaborato decorations, spectacular fea tures and seductive niuslo will bring this event up to par with thoBe of the past which havo proved so succcsBful. FOOTBALL E 10 START :1 ,F.

The Albany-Medford High School football game which is to bo played on the new High school athletic field tomorrow at 11:13 will be one of the best games to bo seen on the home field this year. The rating of the Al bany team as one of the strongest teams in the Willamette valley and the fact that tho .Medford team has lost but ono game this season are fac tors that promise a fast game and a good fight. This gamo will bo tho occasion of tho dedication of the new athletic field which has finally been realized at no small expense by the local High school. Tho new field which is sit uated at the end of north Holly street is equipped with a large bleacher section for the baud and spectators, with a substantial fence, dressing rooms and showers both hot and cold and a backstop which will be behind home plate when the base ball seaBon begins next Spring.

Straight to the eastward ran tho narrow ropcil way, murines In olive green field uni forms nnd with fixed bayonet lining oach sldo. On each man's shoulder swung tho looped cords of tho four ragera allowing that they wore of a marine regiment decorated by Fiance for high valor on Kronen soil. Gradually tho roped alslo leading on up tho great stops to the closed doors of tho rotunda filled with folk come to pasa by tiio bier with bowed heads. Off to tho right whero tho stops sweep up to tho senuto chamber another group gathered about a floral garland, tUo first of the many to bo sot in place. Doors Open to Throng Just at eight o'clock the great main doors, huge bronze barriers, embellish ed with intricate figures and designs nnd long ago given the American re public, strangely enough, by France, on whose soil the soldier died, swung back nnd the waiting hundreds step ped upward four abreast to pass by tho casket. As the first line stepped within the hall from tho group besldo tho bier where the flowers were being set in place malo voices rose In blended har mony that awoke the echoes In the high, vaulted roof above, now flooded with sunlight. They sang tho last verso of America: "I.oni? may our land bo bright, "With freedom's holy light." They sang with a peal of victory nnd no hint of sorrow, and the last notes died nway down tho long corridors to right nnd left as the lino moved slowly on and out tho western entrance, down over the terraced slopes that face out with tho white gleam of Washington monument straight ahead nnd still be hind, seemingly out through tho center by tho great shaft, the square white bulk of Lincoln memorial on the far brim of the Potomac. By ten o'clock a steady stream of ieople soldiers, men. women nnd children, white nnd black "had begun a continuous mnroh through the rotunda.

At stated Intervals dele gations approuched the catafalque for a brief memorial service, each leav ing a wrcalh. Ho numerous were the wreaths that guards picked them up and took them away, leaving room for others to come during the day and light.- Premier Brland nnd the French delegation to the armament confer ence, carrying a huge bunch of pink chrysanthemums, tied with tho tri color of France, entered the rotundn at 1 1 o'clock. Tho premier stood si lently for a moment and then moved out with his party. Many persons in the public line carried floral offerings of their own with which there seldom was a card. In nearly every instance tho volun tary offerings wero carried by a child. Of nil; those who filed through one door and out another, old men and old "women, grandparents of some sol dien ji'Orhnps, were -tho most visibly affected, tears streaming down their cheeks. . A thrcctoot bronze statue symbol izing the "Angel of Peace" was placed on tho catafalque as the gift of the president of tho Chinese republic. - A, fow minutes of noon tho British delegation, lod by Earl Boatty, Ar thur J. Balfour und Ambassador Ged des marched . Into. tUo rotunda from tho northv entrance' ' An officer of the guard approached the catafalque, lolding aloft a huge wreath. As the offering from tho British empire was placed at the side of the coffin, the earl, the former premier, and the I ambassador stepped back, and a Scot, his head hold high, moved forward with the first tribute from the British possessions. Next came the wreath I from Newfoundland, carried by a ! hard son of the north and then the: tribute from Canada, placed by Sir Robert Borden, former premier of the, dominion. A son of India wearing; a silk turban and representative from every land over which the Union lack waves, brought their floral trib utes. Entire, the British tribute completely covered one side of the coffin hiding it from view. Just prior to the appearance of the British, the Boy Scouts marched in, saluted and chanted their oath. The Scout wreath carried the legend: . "Bo prepared."
