10 GIVE SERIN
Rev. and Mrs. F. R. Leach attended
the present week the Oregon Baptist
state convention at Columbia City.
The Baptists have purchased property
at that point on the Columbia river,
valued at $10,000. The young people
also hold their annual gatherings at
this beautiful spot. A large assembly
meets next week.
The past year was the best year in
the history of the denomination. Lar
ger additions and gifts were reported
than in any other year of the conven
tion. The missionary fund reached
nearly (100,000. An outstanding fea
ture was the report on new church
buildings. In the next three years out
side of two Portland church buildings
rV moro money will be put in new
churches than have been invested in
all previous years. Mention was made
of the new building planned by the
local Baptists.
Among the special speakers were
Dr. C. M. Hill of Berkeley, Calif.,
known to many of our Medford people.
: Resolutions were passed which
plated the Baptists of Oregon firmly in
favor of the conservatives in theology.
A mid-winter conference Is to be held
in interest of missions, evangelism and
doctrinal matters.
j The Medford" Baptist church was
recognized in the election of Rev. F. R.
Leach as' altermite preacher of the an
nual convention, sermon next year.

In his letter to the Medford Cham
ber of Commerce, Captain Smith In
commenting on tho value of a perma
nent landing field says:
"1 -have flown over Medford seve
ral times this year, and noticed the
work that was bemg done. If it is
completed you no doubt have an ex
cellent field, ono that your city will
be proud oN.nnd one which will also
assure you of frequent visits both by
army and commercial planes."
Aviators who have used tho fair
ground field since its completion say
it is one of the ost cn the coast and
the fair directors are virtually as
sured of visiting planes during the
county fair.

KEEN COMPETITION
FOR FAT PURSES
AT
Judging by reports reaching the
board, there will bo keen competi
tion at the Jackson county fair this
fall for the fat purses hung up on the
automobile races. One report from
Ashland is to tho effect that a Gran
ite City speed demon is grooming an
entry for the' Ford classic that is
geared up like a fcUutz lieu rout and
holds the road like a three-ton truck.
Another embryo Halph Delalma is
working on the chassis and engine
of an old bus that has more cyHn
ders than a Liberty rtiotor nnd eats
gas like it was formerly owned by
Johu 1). Uockefeller. It is claimed for
mis machine however, that the driver
when he getB on the fair ground track
will shake more speed out of It than
anything on four wheels has ever de
veloped in Jackson county.
The speed which may be attained
by putting a "lil7.ziu"in first class
shape mechanically and gearing up
the transmission is surprising. The
fair ground track is so constructed
that a high speed may be attained if
tho machine is capable of hitting the
breeze.
Ashland speed enthusiasts seem to
be in the majority hi preparation for
tho coming events, but Medford auto
mobile experts claim that when the
starter's flag drops at tho fall-
grounds there will bo a Medford
entry or two that will show tho way
to anything else which may under
take to compete.
