" Ml Colonol Dan Morgan Smith, lately commander in France ol The Battal ion of Death (First Ilaltalion, 3oSth Infantry, 'JOth division) has Ju:.t completed a year's solid speaking upon 'Thn , World's War and the Fields (if France," in Ciillfornlu, and spoke at tlio Methodist church last night. . . .'.' Colonel Smith In hie opening re marks, Baid In part: "I arrt not here to glorify war; there ip no glory in war. "But," said tho colonel, "thero are throe kinds ol enemies, and the first, the armed fos, must bu met with arms; and It we scrap our navy and reduce our army to a handful, the Unspeakable Turk can combine with others of like faith and whip Chris tianity from tho face of the earth." "The religious fanatic dies happy It ho has killed a Christian, and a religious war would bo tho most aw ful thing the world ever knew: and scientific weapons, in- tho hands or trained soldiers, is the. only thing that prevents the fanatical Moham edan from ruling the world. We Christians better take caro lest In our Insistcncn upon disarmament wc he rcsponlshle for tho setting back of Christianity for a thotisund years. "This does not mean that 1 want a big army, nor a lu'rge navy; It only means that I Insist that for tho pro tection of tho faith of our fathers that we lend our influence to the maintenance of a . small but well equipped, well armed, veil drilled, well paid and satisfied regular army,' officered by men who are capable ot training tho citizen soldiory effec tively and quickly, that wo may meet tho emergency, should It come." Colonel Smith, in the early part of his speech, pictured llfo In France, the noisy, funny llttlo trains, and life In the villages where the French spoke EaglUh and the Americans spoke French greatly to tho amuse ment pf all. I Colonel Smith said:' "Our groat fundamental law, upon which all ot our laws nnj based, is tho Constitu tion, of, the United States. Any part or parcel of that constitution makes tho direct declaration that it shall be . unlawful to manufacture, sell, trans port or Import Intoxicating liquors for beverage, purpoucs, and tho boot legger,; iri defiance of that constitu tion",4 plies his. trudo -ho 1h selling the. constitution of his country for money.. Ilq Is not a Bportsumn, he Is an enemy of our government. lie Is not a casual offender against local luwg.ihe Is defying tho government; and tho man who purchases from him Is equally guilty undnr tho constitu tion,; and he! too, is defying his gov ernment; ' ho, too, Is destroying tho respect, for our fundamental laws; lie.'too, Is ah enemy of his c6iinlr and; by the Ktornnl, he Is not n bit 'better than tho bootlnggor the man who puts his nppotllo ubovo the con stitution jof his country should not bo a respected citizen and should not l)e dlevated to public office, nor ro Bpectn,d In tho community, nor receiv ed Ipto our jiomcs; ho should ho put In Jail to 'break rock along with tbt booUogger, nnd other criminals." It. recognize," said Colonol Smith, "tha(, there are thouBands who pat ronise the bootlegger who have never slotted to think of tho harm tiiey do.' The man who threatens to pull down our flag and run up a dirty red rag!'In;lts place; the bolshevik! who preaches destruction of our form of government,; nor tho anarchist who seeks the' destruction of our Institu tions by the' moans of bombs Is not bo dangcrotiB to tho community ns tho' man ' wlo gratifies his nppe'llc nt the expense of tho constitution .:f his country. The only plea that can be Vlide on their behalf Is the piou of the dying Christ, 'Forgive them, Fathe.r, they know not what they do.' " Cofcnel Smith insisted . that tho world was ripe for prohibition, pro vided 'prohibition was made effec tive in America, and ho called upon those tn.tlie audlouco who supported .missionaries, abroad to help bring noout world prohibition ' making prohibition prohibit In Amorlc-i. The peroration of his speech wnsr "If we It took 17 years to complete, but it s not ready for occupancy. Mr. S. SiKKins of Fort Myer. Va., (insert) vowed ho would not marry until he had completed his home for his fiuncee, who was quite willing to wait for her own home. Seventeen years ago Siggins started building, doing the entire Job by himself. Including tho plumbing, decorating, painting, etc. The house Is of ten rooms and well constructed. Tho wedding will soon take place, and will be held, probably, in the new home. " ' PROTEST FILED BY It is reported tlmt one of the neigh boring towns has challenged the eligi bility of two players who nro munibers of the first squad on the Medford high school football team. The official of tho statu board of control when mak ing inquiries failed to Btate whut school had made tho protest. How ever, wo have games for the remain der of the season scheduled only with Grants I'ass nnd Ashlund. Tho players contested are Ashur Neff and ltecs Bnughmun. Ncff was objectod to because. It Is claimed, he Is over ago nnd Is, not legally a high school student. Uaughmun, they cluim, is Ineligible bocauso he left Bchool be fore tho end of tho semester a year ago. In neithor case is thero any groundH for tho protests according to tho state ment of local school authorities. Neff has full high school standing approved not only by the' locnl Bchool but by County Superintendent Carter and State Superintendent Churchill. This was given because of tile . following facts: Ho sorvod two years In the U. S. Marines after tho signing of tho Armistice passed BiiccosBftilly the .civil servico examination for employ ment In tho postal service! and has three and one-half credits 1 in high school. Ho Is only 19 years of age. nnughmiiu left school In March, 1921, but fulfilled thn requirements of the state leaguo both in spirit and in the letter. Tho local school has the writ ten statement oT tho secretary, of the state board of control approving his status. Both hoys are now doing good work in high sfliool and have been all aemostor. Thoro can Justly bo no question ns to tho eligibility of any players on the local toam. Both Noff und Buughmnn will play In tho Armistice day game with Ashland which will bo staged on the Holly sheet grounds Just after tho parado Saturday. FOOTBALL RALLY E The biggest gnnid of the season will be played Saturday afternoon, Armis tice day on tho Holly street grounds when the Medford high bcIiooI team meets the Ashland high school foot bull eleven for the first time this sea son. Neither team has been defeated by another high school this year and. as the teams ore fairly evenly matched as to weight, a game which will be full of fight and rivalry Is expected. Although Ashland carried off. tho gridiron honors last year and is report ed to have a strong nnd well coached team tills year, Medford supporters feel that Medford has the edgo slight ly nnd expect the locals lo win. iCoach Durno is expected to enter tho following line-up at the start of tho game: Ends, Watson and Dono van; tackles, Stockam and Dressier; guards, Nicholson and Bateman: cen ter, Stewart; -halfbacks, Baughman and Sngler; fullback, Neff, and quar terback, Beenoy. A rally, tho like of which has never before been seen in tho stato outside of Eugene or Corvnllls is promised by Yell Loader Jacobs for tomorrow night. Tho giant sorpontlno will start nt 7:30 from tho high school building nnd will be led by tho hungry. 7 (alius tho high school band I, followed by the team In autos. Tho serpentine of students will follow while a fleet of trucks, tractors and all kinds of avail able self-propelled vehicles Will brini; up the rear making ns much racket as possible The public is invited to follow the serpentine to tho bonfiro which it is claimed will bo tho biggest ever built in Medford. Speakers who will deliver addresses at. tho bonfire Include: Col. K. E. Kelly, John Benson, Vernon Vuw ter. Elbert "Irish" Coleman, and Rus sell Sherwood. Enthuslanm Is to bo the keynote of the rally and a display of spirit which is expected to resemblo the old time Medford spirit is expected to crop out soniowhoro before tho evening is over if Yell Leader Jacobs has his way.
