By the end of tho coming month a slanting floor will have been completed. An : other great improvement will also be J completed at about that time. The i present stage in the theatre is quite too small for practical use, and to '.'overcome this, the stage will bo lengthened fifteen feet, necessitating i an addition to be built on the rear of the theatre.

Many young folk were r present to enjoy themselves and be entertained graciously by the hostess. Dancing was the favorite pastime of the evening. Refreshments were scrv : Cfl of the most delicious kind to all ;l those who had the good fortune to ' be present.

This will give tho camp, and also Medford,' publicity in every W. O. W. publication in the United States, reaching. out to every camp and mem ber in the north, soutK, east and west. This will point Medford out to many travoling Woodmen. Who knows but what they might be interested in set tling with their families in this com munity. The plans of the Woodmen of the World are to get every mem ber and every man In business or every one that is interested in the city of Medford to give a helping hand to the wide publicity program. W. O. W. Minstrel show will have widespread advertising thruout the west. This advertising is going to carry the city of Medford into many cities where Woodmen of the World are found. Great resources and op portunities will be mentioned about this locality in this broadcast program which will bo. a benefit to every one living in the city of Medford and sur rounding country. It pays to adver tise. It pays' to- boost. It' pays to develop new business. Tho Minstrel show to be held some time this month is going to be given for the benefit of the many people that like to enjoy a clean, laughable, pleasant entertain ment. All funds dorived from the show will be turned over to the new building committee.
