"This car to be given away" is the legend attached to the Ford auto which will be drawn by Somebody on Monday evening, July 3., The machine is a neat roadster, and is being driven around town and surrounding country in order to ex hibit its good points. On Monday next occurs the original and unique parade of the Fords, and in connection with this spectacle one thousand dollars in cash prizes will be given away in addi tion to the car, which Is of the 1922 model. Coupons are offered by a hun dred local merchants. Minor prizes in the way of merchandise of all kinds are also available. A ballgame for championship of Bouthern Oregon is scheduled for Mon day, also dancing afternoon and even ing, with the big wrestling match the same night. Quoit pitching will be another diversion on both days, and those who think this is a tame pastime ought to watch the horseshoes flying through-the air at the hands of all coiners, women being eligible to the game as well as men. The great spectacular event will be the parade, as staged by the Lithians. Tuesday morning at 10:30, In connec tion with which the pageant of 1776 will be a resplendent one, Incorporat ing beautiful floats, decorated cars, marching organizations, bands, clowns and mountebanks affording unique and original features.

Day or Night WEEKS-CONGER CO Funeral Directors puny ns a carpenter for some time, was a guest Saturday night and Sun day at the Sunnyside. Noblo Zimmerman of Butte Falls came out Friday and spent the night nt the Sunnyside, and went out on the I Euglu Point-Persist sage on his way j over to Tillio to work for the U. S. j government. John Hoogstrat and Howard J. Hill of Medford were hero for din ner Friday circulating a petition to recall our sheriff, Charley Tcrrill, but so far as I know failed to secure any names, but possibly may have se cured a few as there are always some old croakers, who are willing to try to tear down any one who is trying to do his duty. The only complaint, ! or the principal one against Charley, has been that he don't catch the bootleggers, who attend the Saturday : night dances out here, while it ap-: pears that as soon as he, himself, or I any of his deputies come to town, J word is sent by phone, by signs or! monosyllihles and the booze is all i cached or carried out of town and so j of course, he finds none. Mr. W. M. Rinsol of Medford and, Mrs. S. E. Williams of Portland were here Thursday for dinner. Charley Clark, the traveling sales man for the Watkins products4 was here and spent Friday night.

It so happened that I was just ready to start for Medford to see Dr. Holt who has been treating my case. Hurriedly he wrote out nn ad and off we started, and soon I was in Tho Mail Tribune office and was told by tho affable clerk, Mary,' that I was .too late, as they were ready to go to press, hut nothing daunted, I visited the editor and stated my case to him. and the result was in a few minutes it wns in type. After visiting Dr. Holt and having him make out a prescription I thtn called on Dr. J. J. Emmons to have him tre.it my eyes, and waited my turn, met the doctor, had him treat my eyes, went on my way nnd In the course of the afternooft met Mrs. Geppert of Butte Falls, one of Mr. Avrill's neighbors nnd she- told me that she had found the coat and that everything was all safe. On reaching home I found Mr. Avrill there, as he thought that his horse was too tired to drive up home that afternoon, and I informed him of the result, greatly to the, relief of his mind. "While" I was in. the office of Dr. Holt he announced the birth of. a fino boy in the family of Theron Taylor of Lake Creek Jun 23, and I remarked that he seemed to be doing quite a business in that line out in our country, and asked for a list of the births in our neighborhood dur ing the month of June, so he gave the following list: Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Vesto, boy, June 12, R.
