The pro posed work does not apply to a new highway, but to a county Iroad- sur veyed long since but never construct ed. In extent It would be 4 or 5 miles in length, extending from the. original Orubb ranch in Dead Indian to the shale territory which it is planned to develop extensively, In fact arrange ments are already under way to as sume the Initial work which the Hart man Syndicate is outlining on an ex tensive Bcale. Exemplifying the advantages of a course in home economics at the Agri cultural college, Corvallls, Margaret, daughter ot Dr. and Mrs. F. H. John son of tills city has been displaying a handsome gown, evidence ot her own handiwork, at the Meier & Frank de partment store at Portland.

At the Baptist church, on Wednes day evening, Dr. Charles Manly, re turned missionary from Hindustan, gave an address dealing with prob lems prevailing "on. India's coral strand." Recent negotiations which might have implied change of ownership of the Tidings, not having materialized, the present management still remains at the helm. A. C. Dixon, of Eugene, manager of tlie Booth-Kelly lumber Interests, has been visiting here of late, renewing many old acquaintances hereabouts. He was accompanied by his wife, who was formerly Emma Herrin. The visi tors have recently been making an ex tensive tour of the east and south, v Glenn Glnley is a new appointment on the fire department force, succeed ing Forbes who resigned.

PHILIP MORRIS 8 CO. tra ii'i i CIGARETTES 20 Ar2y De Molay order in Ashland under aus pices of the several Masonic bodies wub diBcussed from tbo commandery viewpoint, and a committee consisting of O. F. Carson and Victor Mills, of Ashland, and Glen Fabrick of Medford were appointed to report upon the project at the next stated conclave, April 18. - j An American Legion baseball team Is planned for the Beason, meetings already being held to perfect such an athletic organization. A local church denomination Is fretting and fuming over the ignoble fate which befell a lot of decorations devised for Easter Day. A good share of these were artificial replicas ot shrubbery, buda and blossoms, and were non-perishable, capable of being used on various occasions. A careless caretaker,' presupposing that these ornamentations had l outlived their usefulness with the close ot the Eas ter anniversary, removed the whole job lot ot the collection and summarily consigned thorn to the dump, with the result that the entire stock is beyond hope of redemption even at a rum mage or salvage sale. ' Sunday School Missionary Amos, ot the Southern Oregon presbytery, was a visitor to this field of late, address ing the Men's Brotherhood of . the Presbyterian church I in connection with talks by Cash, Woods, ot the county Y. M. C. A. and others. The meeting, with banquet accompani ments, grew so enthusiastic that the Brotherhood were moved to contem plate the installation of a boys' club room in the basement of the church, a committee being appointed to investi gate the feasibility of the project with power to act. -. 1 - An auction sale of all goods that have not been previously disposed of, will be held on Weduosday evening, April 11, this referring to the Civic club's Balvage sale, which Is to begin on Tuesday, April 10. Ex-Mayor Lam- kin will assume the role of auctioneer, having had extensive experience along these lines way back In Iowa, where the public Bale business assumes great proportions In the early spring. In the meantime the clubrooms are open every afternoon this week, receiving and arranging goods for the bargains which will be available on the dates specified. Superintendents of depart ments Include Mrs. Fuller, plants; Mrs. Lamkin, cakes; Mrs. V. Mills, candy; Mrs. Channel, sandwiches; Mrs. Jarvis, clothes; Mrs. . Carlton, holders; Mrs. Tomllnson, miscellane ous. From this list of managers, it may rightly be inferred that thiB "clos ing out sale of spring goods will do justice to a big department store's business. Advice is to dp your salvage shopping early. - - '' ' vi' '. .The alley in the rear of. business blocks on the west side of the Plaza, along the creek, Is assuming the aspect of placer mining operations of the long ago. Prospecting is being given an Impetus due to the circum stance that two valuable gold rings were consigned by .accident to a waste basket, ultimately finding a refuge in the community , incinerating plant used by the stores in common. As a result, ashes are being sifted and gar bage overhauled, in the effort to make a lucky strike by way of recovering the precious metal either in its orig inal form or melted state. The alley has a blind ending at the northern ter minal, and the bridge over the creek being gone at the southern exit, allows salvage operations to be confined to actual property owners or tenants, shutting off outsiders from this rich mineral field. - " ?' The new ambulance for the Commu nity Hospital has arrived and is being assembled at Ford headquarters In readlnoBB for- any, call due to emer gency. It -is a most substantial veh icle, patterned after Ford models In its particular classification. . r Will Brlggs, former city attorney, hafe been reappointed to that office, as successor to W. J. Moore, resigned. His letetr of acceptance is due soon. ANNUAL BAH I OF ROGUE RIVER AGATE ITEMS The Canal Co. turned the water into the ditches last week.

' - When the state adds a cent a gnl Ion tax to gasoline, the people make a big kick. When Rockefeller, whose Standard Oil stock cleared 1300,000 a day last year, adds two or three cents a gallon to the price of gnu not much la said about It. The state uses the extra money to build good roads and Rockefeller probably Invent his In tnx-free securities. ROQUH RIVEK, Ore.

The Ancient River Mining com pnny started operating Its plant about a muiicn ii gu uiiuit inifu an ii in, working tho full twenty-four hours. The company, for the last two years. had been working the ground with the hope that it would return a profit from tho gold received. This proved a failure, ns their clean-up-seldom . paid running expenses. Mr. Rosa Dull, a nephew of one of the prin cipal stock holders of Mason City, Iowa, came here last fall and, to gether with an engineer by the name of ltoykln, they conceived the idea that if tho rock oould be disposed of tho plant could be made to pay. A contract for crushed rock was se cured from the outhern Pacific com pany at 85c per cubic yard. A crusher was Installed and the greater part of last month was consumed In getting tho plant In running shape, correctig mistakes, nnd ' adjusting generally. Mr. Dull Is very optimis tic and believes tho plant will be a good money maker, and we1 are all hoping he is not mistaken. The com pany had two "clean ups" In gold, one netting approximately $160 and the other $180. ' IF SKIN BREAKS OUT AND ITCHES APPLY SULPHUR Just the moment you apply Mentho. Sulphur to an itching, burning or broken out skin, the itching stops and healing begins, says a noted skin spe cialiit This sulphur preparation, made into a pleasant cold cream, gives such a quick relief, even to fiery eciema, that nothing has ever been found to lake its ploce. Because of its germ-destroying prop, erties, it quickly subdues the itching, cools the irritation and heals the eoema right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin in place of ugly eruptions, rash, pim ples or roughness. You do not have to wait for improve merit. It quickly shows. You can get a little jar of Rowles Mentho-Sulphur at any drug store. 0. V. MYERS "The Truck SlnH MACK TRUCKS REO SPEED WAGONS SO N.
