Frank Patterson, the man who has
' been bo markedly successful In the
taking and coloring of photos ot Cra
ter Lako and other scenic wonders ot
tho northwest, spoko to the members
ot the Chamber of Commerce Forum
at the Hotel Medford yesterday noon.
. .. Mr. Patterson began by saying that
hcv would not endeavor to toll lled
forditos about Crater I. uke, which ho
loeuted In our front yard, but turned
the attention of his audience to the
buck yard and tho Oregon Cares,
which he stated belonged to Medford
us well us Grants Pass. He urged
that a campaign be started at once to
restrict and stamp out the practlve
which tourists to the caves now in
Oulgo in of taking Btalactites and ot
burning their Initials In the walls of
the beautiful caverns.
-The arousing of public Benttment
to a point where a person taking a
Btatnctlte would be looked upon with
hs much disfavor as a horse, thtot is
the aim of tho campaign and it was
heartily approved by the members ot
tho forum after llstoning to the ex
planation of the formation ot tho
caves which was given by tho
speaker. ,. '
It has taken 140,000 years to form
the stalactites and stalagmites now
adoriiing the interior of the miracu
lous caverns. In the 47 years since
the caves wero discovered 12,000
peoplo visited them up until June 26,
1 922. From June 20, 1922, until
Oct. 13, 10,000 peoplo visited the
caves. The ten thousand people who
visited the caves last summer dam
aged them in that brief period of
time more than they had been dam
aged, in the 4 7 pieceedlng years. The
damage done last summer by taking
the tiny stalactites as souvenirs
would take 20,000 years for nature
to repair if the cavoB were closed to
spectators at the present time and
nature allowed to' go Shout her work.
A suggestion that the Chamber ot
Commerce arrange, a camp meeting
or. Chautauqua to be held In a suit
ablo'soason of the year at some ideal
camping spot and that they get , -together
and co-operate was mde by
Mr, Patterson. He stated that he
thought such a meeting of tho cham
bers of Ashland, Medford and Grants
Pass, .would do moro for Southern
Oregon than any one. thing. . ''.'
Mr. Patterson's description-of the
formation of the caves was very In
teresting aud Instructive, and he had
nil , of the statistics as to- time, and
course of construction taken by na
ture at his fingers- ends..
Mi's. Patterson,, who'was a guest at
th ..luncheon, ; fAVor.ed.the- .assembly
with" a Verse of the Medford Cham
ber' ot Commerce Crater Lake song
written by D. 13. Millard.
James R. Fish, formerly ot Los
Angeles, now a Medford resident,
played, the accompaniment for the
songs and also favored the members
of I ho chamber with two piano solos.
During the five minute period H.
L. Walther announced that he had
been examining tho statistics of the
local postofflce and that Modford was
tit tho present time just a little short
ot making tho $30,000 mark for tho
year 1922. ' , -

unemployed, the sorrowing and be
reaved. Locally Captain Ford states about

and appeals.

Wallace Reld, Page
"Clarence" is ono of the best tilings
Wallace Raid has ever done. Hero is a
picture that you can see moro than
once Just as you saw tho play. The
star has abandoned his incandescent
hair and discharged tho valet. Even
under the microscope ho Is every inch
Tarklngton's Clarence the bug Polly
anna In service stripes.
The cast Is admirable. - Agues Ayros
Is charming and real us Violet Plnoey,
tho governess. May McAvay Is well
cast as the flapper. Edward Martindel
gives -a porfect performance as tho
harassed and tired business father.
Kathlyn Williams Is the pouting Mrs.
Wheeler. Adolph Menjou is the vil
lainous Hubert Stem. Others in the
cast are Bertram Johns, Dorothy Gor
don and Mayni, Kelso.
Robert Agnew, .who plays Bobby
Wheeler, deserves special mention.
Ills work Is so enjoyable that with lots
of hard effort It seems as if he might
become another Richard BiirtheliuesS:
Clara Beranger; the scenarloiat, has
accomplished the task of putting the
Tarklngton favorite into celluloid re
markably well.
You'll like "Clarence." The story Is
the romance of the pretty governess
and tho bug specialist, just out ot ser
vice, .who conceals his Identity and nc
copts a position in a wealthy family
because he is too proud to go back and
nsk for his old position on the college
faculty. ; Being -experienced In the
bluebird philosophy as well as the
Coue theory, he keeps busy turning
household back into paths of content
"Betty" Brown's musical numbers
from tho M'ltzl show are Indeed flno.
Story Canadian Rockies
Wonderful scenery, tho Canudlau
Rockies In all their beauty and glory
and a story that holds tho attention
closely, mnko "Tho Valley of Silent
Mon," nt tho Rlnlto theater, vastly
good entertainment. It has other at
tractions Alma Ruben looking quite
her prettiest In millionaire roughing
togs, and Lew Cody plops ills role of
Corporal James Kent with consider
nolo sincerity. Goorge Nash, grown
corpulent since tho days when he wus
so charming in "Chlmmlo Faddon," Is
the villain of the picture, and Mario
Majeronl pluys a sort of mad murderer
who kills throe men by strangling
them with a lock ot his wifo's hair, the
throo having killed hor years before.
Tho chief interest in tho picture
lies in its oxuuiBlto outdoor beauty;
the stretches of mountains laden with
winter snows; the climbing and adven
tures ot Kont and the girl trying to
reach her sheltered valley of "tho
silent men." They oro things worth
seeing.
