tho first quarter's drill of 1923. It
Is a great satisfaction to tho local
Oregon National Guard company
monibors to receive their pay checks
every three months rather than semi
annually, as formerly was tho rule.
Grater attention is being paid now
to the' National Guard by the War
Department, since the armory has
been procured and actunl construc
tion work has been started, which
will be pushed through to comple
tion as fast as possible.
This building will give to tho com
pany a good military home and a
safe placo for government proporty,
hence the government military de
partment has sent to Medford a resi
dent instructor from the regular
army. Sergeant Vaughn has arrived
in Modford and will make his perma
nent homo here. His time and ef
forts will bo spent In tho furthering
of the Interest of the locul National
Guard company, and his headquar
ters will probably be at the Armory
as soon as this building Is complot
ed. The new rifle range near Jackson
ville, which was approved by Adju-
tant General WWte on Sunday and
Monday, will be put in shape at once
for uso. . Through tho efforts ot the
company with the assistance of the
chamber of commerce of Jacksonville
the range was procured, - and the
chamber of commerce of that city are
taking immediate steps to have city
water piped to the rifle range Just
outside of town. The range will bo
used not only for the company, but
it is expected that the National Riflo
association will also have the use
of It.
The company Is now preparing for
the annual encampment at Camp
Lewis, which extends from June
15th to June 30th, and this camp will
be the most Important one held by the
troops as It will he an encampment of
the entire 41st Division which takes
In not only Oregon, but Montana and
Idaho as well. One of the features at
the camp wlll .be the special atten
tion paid by the military department
to athletics. The. principal drill pe
riod will probably be in the forenoon
and considerable time throughout tho
entire camp will be turned over to
the men for athletic work.
The Modford company will 'lmmo'
dlately recruit a few more young
men to bring up '. to the required
strength and Is now, especially work
tng for young men Worestod In atti
lotin work. Tho company expocts to
come home from camp this year with
some of the prizes won from the en
tire 41st Division of the United
States.
The Medford command will take
with them this year a first class base
ball team, fitted out with baseball
uniforms, fncljuding' 'caps, blouses.,,
trousers, belts and stockings, which
have already been purchased.
AVithln the next seven wcekB sev
eral eampB will be made by the local

VALUE OF GOLF AS
AID TO HEALTH IS
II. Chandler Egan was tho princi
pal speaker at tho chumbor of com
merco forum luncheon at tho Hotel
Medford this noon at which Dr. II.
W. Clancy was tho chairman.
Mr. KKun delivered an exceedingly
Interesting talk on golf as a physical
developer und outlined tho local situ
ation regarding the establishment' of
a gulf club hero within tho near fu
ture. Tho flnunclal pliaso of tue
proposition has been arranged by u
number of local men, including seve
ral of tho best business bruins in tho
community in order . to assuro tho
success of tho venture, declures Mr.
Ksnn. Tho location of the course and
numerous other details havo not yet
been definitely taken caro of however.
Golf, according to tho speaker, is
undoubtedly the moat popular game
In tho United Stnots today, being
played by more people in ull classes
than any other game. It provides
mental relaxation and an absorbing
Interest In addition to tho exercise.
For full benefit from any physical
excrciso a psychological stato of re
laxation and interest Is absolutely os
sential, suit! tho speaker.
"Golf provides the mental relaxa
tion and physical exerclso, obviously
said Mr. Eugan, "and if you meet a
golf enthusiast you won't havo to talk
with him very long until you will be
convinced that ho has an absorbing
interest.
In substantiation of his stntomont
that golf is conduclvo to health, tho
speaker cited sovoral Instances whoro
persons given a limited trine to live
by physicians, took up golf and nro
still living, although the length 'of
their lives had bcon set at but a fow
months ten and more years ago.
About twenty-threo local men havo
guaranteed tho funds necessary to
establish a golf club In the Rogue
river valley, but It is easily soon that
this number cunnot support the club.
When tho establishment of tho club
and the completion of tho course Is
nn absolute fact, however, Mr. Egan
declares that ho thinks the people of
Medford and Jackson county will
support the club and that a sufficient
number of members for its successful
progress will bo secured.

special forum -meeting next Saturday

ization of real estate dealers will visit
Medford. Next weok's forum will bo
held Tuesday noon Instoad of Wed

Wcdnosday night, May 2, a members'
meeting will be held in the basement
of tho Hotel Medford. E. J. Adams,
private secretary to U. S. Senator 11.
N. Stanfield, will speak nt this mooting.
