Important action intended to -aHflii land coloni zation Jn western Ptntfs has been taken by the Southern Pacific com pany in taking up with other western cnrrlers associated in the trans-conti-nentni passenger association a propo sition to place in effect home-fleckers excursion fares from the middle west to points in California, Oregon, Ne vada, New Mexico and Arizona. An nouncement of the company's action was made today by J. H. It. Parsons, passenger traffic manager for the company.

Many friends and con fidantes came Into "Woodrow "Wilson's life after he entered the White House. Many uho pitKHfd out. Of nil those who came, two notably remained to his dying moment. One was his physician, Rear Ad miral Cary T. Grayson; the other was Bernard M. Baruch, the New York financier and counsellor on' the intric acies of .post-war problems. 'Of the two Mr. Wilson's relationship with Dr. Grayson was the more personal, the bond between them was almost that between father and son. Wr. Wilson's friendship for Mr. Baruch, although personal, also was sustained on the foundation of two -minds that ran alone together - on ' common courses. ' " --' -' ' CTrayson the confidante and friend of two presidents ' before "Wilson, brought to his chief touches 'of nature which many declared were not part of Mr. "Wilson's natural equipment. Nevertheless, It was a profound re spect for those attributes which grew Into close friendship and 'companion ship. Mr. Grayson is the son of a Virginia country doctor, orphaned early in ll'fe, who took his hard knocks while get ting an education. From his father and from experience "ho probably In herited the Innately human concep tions of nature itself, as only the old country style doctor acquires them nnd these he Drought to Woodrow Wilson. The public mind - most' associated with this physician about whom it has heard much with the illness and death of Mr. Wilson. But long before Woodrow Wilson was heard of as a presidential possibility, Dr. Grayson was a naval officer attached to tho White Houso as a physician to Presi dent Roosevelt. "Because ' he knew something about human nature, "birds. trees and animals, particularly horses,; he was not long in becoming Colonel Koosovelt's aide and companion. Tho American people were thrilled when President Roosevelt, just to show some army officers that ho asked of no one something ho himself At the opening session of the Kl wanis club Monday President Lemmon called attention to the death of ex Presitlent Wilson, and all present stood with bowed heads for two minutes out of respect for tho late war presi dent. "What are we going to tlo about the tourists who are going to visit this city, valley, southern Oregon and Cra ter Lake, in greatly-increased num bers this year than ever before?" said Col. C. O. Thompson, superintendent of Crater Lake National park, In' op ening his remarks before the club. "We should prepare at once to ex tend them a hearty welcome, enter tain them while In the city, tell them of our resources of city, of Crater lake, the Oregon caves, and the many other scenic wonders. Medford should spend most of the money for advertising and in entertaining tourists after they. ar rive here." ' "The different clubs ot Medford should organize at once and see that at least two business men visit the auto camp every evening during the tourist season and greet the people, give 15 or 20 minute talks, with illus trated views ot our city, valley, scenic wondors, mills, fruit packing plants, paved highways, and other things of intorest. In short sell this country to the fourlats and send every one ot thorn away with a booklet." Col. Thompson said Rainier park had a total attendance of 123,000 last year, a gain ot 70 per cent, while the at tendance at Crater Lake national pari: was 62,000, a gain of 67 per cent. How evor tho attendance figures show that 92,000 of those who . vlsitod llainior were Washington or home peoplo, nfid 21,000 were ' from other Btatos. The Oregon visitors to Crater Luke were 31,000 nnd 21,000 from other states, making the per cent ot outside In creased attendance for Crater lake 40 nnd Rainier 26. This shows that a much larger nnmher of tourists visits Crater Lake. Tho figures also show that a much larger per cent of Call- Child's Best Laxative is "California Fig ' Syrup" Hurry Mother!

I No body mentioned that Dr. Grayson rods every foot of the way at his chiefs side and sometimes guided th presi dent's horse when 'Roosevelt's spec tacles were coated with Ice. President Roosevelt turned Gray son ' over to .President Taft with a recommendation of loyalty and he' won-Mrs. Taffs tieart with his sym pathetic devotion to ' her delicate health. Woodrow Wilson had never heard of Cary T. Grayson when he stepped Into the White House on March -4, 1918. Inauguration day with ItH spec tacle and splendor lured all the White House physicians but one from their fixed posts. -Grayson remained on duty. The first Mrs. Wilson, as she stepped through (ha White House por tals met 'with "an unimportant but painful accident, there was a call for a doctor, answered Immediately ; by Grayson. . . ..Mrs. Wilson commended to her husband this modest young man, who seemed so- devoted to ' duty. - Ha be came Mr. Wilson's aide and physlotan and as the years went on, his friend. No political wires were pulled; no In fluences figured In the disposition of one of the most coveted posts in Washington. ' A little more than a year later, one hot August afternoon, -with a 'world war bursting into flame, the first Mrs. Wilson lay on her deathbed. Her last words to Grayson were: "Take good care of Woodrow.- Promise!" How well that promise was kept probably only a recording angel may know. Some time after Mrs. Wilson's death Dr. Grayson Introduced to Miss Helen Woodrow Bones, President Wilson's kinswoman, guest at the White House; a-friend of long 'acquaintance, Mrs: Edith Boiling Gait. , .

Medford and this valley appreciate his splendid work In the years past anil will welcome him again. S. Sumpter Gmlth was given the honors, furnlBhed by tho Medford Iron Works, an auto parking light. Short talks were made by-H. D. Probach, B. E. Harder and C. E. Gates. GRAVEL LC. ROAD Petitions, are now In -circulation asking for the macadamizing of the road from Eagle Point to Lake Creek, through a $100'000 bond issue, pay able in 16 years, and subject to thei will of the voters at the primary nom inating election, to be held Friday, May 16. 1 1000 names are needed on the petitions. ' , Proponents of the propositions, ad vance the following' arguments In its behalf: That the Lake -Creek road 'Is ' the heaviest traveled, and th.e least im proved road in the valley. That it is a thorofare to the source of -Medford's water 'supply, 'and will tap the Dead Indian Springs, Fish Lake. Lake o' the Woods, and other spots in high favor with tourists and campers. That It will bo valuable ln'the'de- velopment of a new section,-and aid rarmers nnd otockmen now living in that vicinity. The proposed road will run from Eagle Point to Lake Creek. The county court 'returned today from Its Junket Into- Marion and Clackamas counties to study road nnd paving conditions before advertising for bids for tho Ruch-Medford high way, and a decision on the matter Is expected this week. . A plan is now being advanced that the road between Medford and Jack sonville bo planted to "shade trees, to make it a beauty drive in years to come. In this connection. ' Miss Htellu Ltvy of Jacksonville,-a pioneer resi dent recalled Monday that 30 years ngo, when sho was working in ' tho courthouse, a proposal was nrado to tho county court to plant shade trees along the road, but was smothered in a streak of economy. Van R. Gilbert to Start Fish Market Van U. Gilbert has leased a part of the Economy market and will begin next Monday arranging to install nn up-to date fish and oyster market.

He devoted seven yeara of his life to keeping Woodrow "Wilsoi? a well man and four more to keopli'g him- alive. .' When'Mr. Wilson Buffered his first stroke of paralysis after the return! from his League of Nations 'speaking trip in 1919, Graysbn of all the phy sicians called for1 consultation said he could prolong the patient's life. He did, more than four years, and lost his ' fight only ' when as Mr. Wilson himself said, "the old machine haa broken down." 'When' Mr. 'Wilson went abroad' to the peace conference he was -not only Mr. "Wilson's - physician, but he was his eyes and his-ears his intelligence officer. Many European . statesmen "wonder where Mr. Wilson learned the intimate things mi really came ; into possession of through his quiet, mod est 'doctor.' Other : persons who i professed " to wonder why they fell into presidential disfavor- could learn the reasons why, could they induce Grayson to divulge some things Woodrow Wilson confid ed to him. Many things about which historians will wonder could bo oleared up if Grayson would tell tout he won't. Few people claim to have known Woodrdw. Wilson well, fewer still will claim to ever have glimpsed behind "what they commonly agreed upon as "the -curtain of Impersonality," -which veiled his inner nature. ' His friend and physician is one -who lived behind that curtain.

P. I. The program came in very distinctly and elearly. . .Radio fans are becoming more and more disgusted over the continued in terference from local amatenr wireless operators nnd a number of owners of sets are contemplating the framing of a city ordinance which will prohibit 'these amateurs from "hogging the air" practically twenty-ono hours . of the day. Present regulations forbid ama teurs operating between the hours of 8 and 10:30 at night. Last night's opera program was seriously Interfer ed with after 10; 30 as the program was not over with until 11:30. How these amateurs can keep up with their school duties and also remain up every night of the week until midnight and after is a mystery most of the local amn tuer operators are boys under 18 years ot age. Reception of programs from eastern stations, which usually come In best between five in tho afternoon and eight o'clock Is now largely a hit and miss proposition through this local interference.
