DECLARE CLEAN UP
BALLOTS GO OUT
AS COLONEL BULL
FROM APRIL 22-25
The last week of April was desig
nated by the city council at its meet
ing last night as general clean up
week In Medford in order that the
city may present Its best appearance,
especially for the Btute convention of
the federated women's clubs May 22
25, when mojiy women will be pres
ent from all parts of the state.
The mayor and council will issue
an appeal to the public to clean up
the alleys and yards that week of
tin cans, rubbish and the like and
have It hauled away. However, this
must be done at each householder's
own expense, as the administration
deems the city treasury too poor to
have free hauling away of the rubbish
collected.' Ashland recently had a
clean up week at that city's expense.
The matter was brought up at last
night's council meeting by Council
man B. W. Paul at the request or the
club women of the city, who had also
asked the mayor and other council
men to see that a clean up was ar
ranged for, hence the action was tak
en unanimously with but little de
bate. '
OF MALICIOUSNESS
WASHINGTON. April 18. State de
partment agents designated to investi
gate charges that Turkish soldiers
had mutilated the body and destroyed
the coffin of George Dilboy, an Amer
ican soldier to whom a congressional
medal of honor was awarded after he
met his death in the world war. In a
preliminary report the agents said
"those responsible for the profanation
were apparently actuated by cupidity
rather than by malice or any inten
tional act ot disrespect."

The same exquisite flavor
The fame of Quaker Oats is due to super-flavor. We flake th
queen grains only just the ricji, plump, flavory oats, We get but
ten pounda from a bushel.
- All the world over Quaker Oats dominates, because people love -that
flavor. And Quaker will always have it.
Quick Quaker is made from the same queen oats. The flavor
is identical. But we cut the grains before flaking. Then we roll
. them thin and partly cook. ,..,.
So the flakes are smaller and thinner that is all. And those
small, thin flakes cook quickly. . -
Now you have a double reason for selecting Quaker Oat i.
You get that exquisite flavor. And you get, if you wish, flakes that
cook almost instantly. In either respect, there is no other, pat
dish in existence that compares.

BISHOP SUMNER TO ATTEND OPENING
OF SHIRK'S PARISH HOUSE TONIGHT
Colonel Bull's present campaign
Is not. as one may suspect at first, one
to elect certain of his friends to
the directorate of the Chamber ot
Commerce, but rather to secure per
sonal aggrandizement. The colonel
has been bitten by a publicity bug ot
the most virulent species. He is a
limelight hound of the first water
and is grasping the opportunity of
the coming election to gain notor-
iuty for himself. The candidates he
has selected on his Gump ticket are
bis miBguidod tools."
The speaker was an Influential cit
izen who asked his name to be with
held because he has always kept out
of politics. His testimonial was de
livered from the shoe shining stand
ot Mr. George Washington Maddox.
Mr. Maddox corroborated the opinion
thus: ,
Yessuh, de Colonel am a great
believer In pomp and circumstance.
He done drive in from Buncombe
ovvy day In his fllvvuh and his shiny
puttees and his shiny nose jes like
he's ono ot dese country gennulmen.
Ah guess he think his shack in Bun
combe is Tammany Hall or sumpln.
Looks to me like his ticket gone get
about ten votes. Ah knows Ah's caBt-
In mine for de Cratuhs' ticket. Yes
suh, dat Cratuhs' ticket am one hun

Colonel Bull's IJist Stuml
Today ballots go out to every mem
ber of the Chamber ' of Commerce,
There will be three tickets the Cra
ters, the Business Men's, and last but
not least, the Andy Gump ticket.
The A. G. ticket got into the field
late, but it came in with a bang, and
it freshened things lip.
The Craters' and Business Men's
tickets mean nothing and stand for
nothing. They wore spawned in the
dark and are the natural offspring
of the rotten Oregon system. These
thirty-six men are not standing on
any platform of principles, nor. have
they announced any policies. So far
as intelligent voting is concerned.
every man Jack of them is an un
known quantity.
The time has come for the Med
ford Chamber of Commerce to move
forward onto hew and higher
ground. ' The people of this commu
nity are ' going to expect certain
things of this board of directors.
For one thing, the .people . will de-.
mand, and the time is ripe, for an
up-to-date Medford booklet a gora.'l
a work of art, 'a thing of beauty,
something to excite and stimulate our
dull Imaginations; telling In rich sn1'
glowing words of our achievements
in the past, and beckenin to the
people of the crowded and dlsaatisfi-!
ed est, wlthi the magic of engraving
and portrature of pictured story.
Do you have any assurance that!
you will get this sort of a booklet If
you elect nine men from the Craters, I

know by any pledge or promise they.
have mado that a single one of these I
men "are rarin' to tell the world"
nbout this smiling valley, the land of
soft winds, gentle rains, and sprak-
llng sunshine?
Now the members Of the A. G. tick
et, individually and collectively are
pledged to do certain definite things.
They are pledged to "tell the world"
about this spot, favored of the gods,
and they are pledged to find enough
money to make up a booklet of such
attractiveness that it will allure and
entice tens of thousands to come
and share with us the fullness and
bounty, the contentment and happi
ness, of this western wonderland."
I think the electorate of the Cham
ber of Commerce know pretty well
what they want the question Is do
they know how to go about getting It.
I am an old-timer In this country,
I love it with a love that passcth un
derstanding, therefore I feel qualified
to advise with you. It Is in no spirit
of levity that I exhort you to vote the
Any Gump, ticket straight. These
men stand for tho things you want,
and If elected will not violate their
pledged word nor betray your confidence.
Now, a word personal to myself. It
was a sacrifice as well as a pleasure
for an old Rebel soldier to leave his
own fireside and come to Medford
to make a fight for the Andy Gump
ticket. I didn't expect that either
myself or my ticket would be hand
led with gloves, but the eruptions
were more violent than I expected.
In the main the fight has been a clean
one. However, It Is about ovor and
the fate of the Andy Gump ticket is
In the lap of the gods, or to bo more
exact. In the hands of the free and

of Commerce.

The news that Eddie Durno, the
efficient conch of tho .Medford hlch
Hchool, will not be buck next year will
be received with profound regret
not only by the student body of the
schools, but by tho public generally.
Mr. Durno, who has been one ot
tho moHt popular couches In Med
ford's hlHtory, ilesplto tho fact that
ho did not win any state ehamplon
shlps this yeur wuh generally looked
upon to bring home the bucon next
year with Medford tenuis In one or
moro lines ot uthletlc endeavor. He
has always hud his team in tho run
ning, however, and bus had them
wholesomely respected by opposing
teams.
Mr. Durno has decided to quit
couching nnd uttend tho mcdlcul
school of tho Unlvei'Hty of Oregon, at
rortlund next year. Ho was re
elected couch nnd instructor In physi
cal educntion. but nt the salary of
$2400. the. name sum ho received' for
this yenr's work. He desired n sul
ary of $2900, which the school board
found Itself unable to grunt.
Then a1 movement was started to
hnvo tho oxtrn five hundred dollars

ness men. That could easily have
been done it is claimed because ot

school would receive for next year,
That would hardly look right, it wu4
deemed, and the movement conse

Mr. Durno was unwilling to work
at tho $2400 salary and hus decided
to begin his medical course next
year. When he came to Medford ,
