room, for the purpose of honoring our
heroes, BtalesnuMi and martyrs, thut
were not the citizens of Medford to
ma lie this nood a Knowing I would
feel that some great catastrophe had
occurred."
The budren of Mr. Ylning'H address
was that government Is tending to
ward over-centralization with too
much power placed in the hands of
federal commissions. that , laws are
passed hy a minority and ft need upon
the people before they become the
crystallzed opinion of the majority as
evidenced by conduct of the majority,
and that there 1h too much talk con
cerning compliance with the consti
tution and not enough actual living
in acocrd with the principles act forth
in that great document.
' "Consider tho history of the consti
tution and constitutional government
and we must consider the history of
freeilotnitself," said Mi. Vining. "The
constitution was not born at the con
vention of 1 787; it was born thous
ands of years before when men were
seeking freedom. It was born when
men left Kgypt. when men left As
syria, when men' left liuhylonla: when
i they went to that island In the Agean
sea and founded
altar of the Constitution Is the home
of the American citizen."
Karly in his address Mr. Vining di
gressed to pay a .strong tribute to sis
veterans of the Civil war, three of
whom wero accompanied by their
wives, and who occupied places of
honor at the banquet table.
The program opened with the sing

"I believe In the Tnlted Slates
of America as a government of

Why was not that freedom self-perpetuating
Why could the world not
have been saved the Dark Ages ami
the feudal system that followed? The
seats of freedom were surountled by
despotic countries, the powers of des
potism slowly closing upon them like
the jaws of some great engine of de
struction. Converging forces of des
potic power crushed them out of ex
istence. "Then came the invention of the

the light of freedom was obliterated by

died In the darkness of despots' wills.
, "What was ncdil.was a wide area
sufficiently populated with people fir
ed with the great Impulse of fretioin
and willing to sacrifice everything."
In his glowing, graphic manner Mr.
Vining described the career of Chris
topher Columbus and drove home th
lesson of perseverance taught hy the
exploit of that great fimire in our his
tory. He described the development
of England's colonies In America as
the result of commercial activity and
the unexpected growth of legislative
assemblies within the colonies which
culminated in self -government." a ml

The passage of laws hy the gross In
legislatures and congress was a prae
tlce which came In for a few moments
of sly cere condemnation by Mr. Vin
ing. "When Is a law a law?" asked
Mr. Vining. "Not until It Is crystallzed

has regulated Us conduct. In such a
manner as to demonstrate that It Is In
favor of such a law. No. I am not re
ferring to any amendment lo the con
stitution nor to any law In 'particular.
How many laws are there on the
statute hooks governing your morals
and your conduct? Only seventy
thousand."
Mr. Vining scored the lac of train
ing for citizenship in piodorn homes

tertainment and the enjoyment of
modern superficial pleasures were
true expressions of tho gratitude owed
to martyrs who gave, their lives to
preserve the union.

areTrue Low-Pressure Balloons
IF you are one of the thousands of car owners
who have been attracted by the handsome
appearance of the all black U. S. Royal Balloons,
it will please you to know this
These tires hold their good looks during the
full period of their long service life. They do
not show finger marks, mud or grease stains.
The beauty of U. S. Royal Balloons is in ad
dition to those characteristics which have made
these tires famous. They are distinctive in
being true Low-Pressure balloons.
Their construction and design positively avoid
the necessity of over-inflating the tires to insure
long service. You can run them at genuine low
air pressures and get the comfort that balloon
tires are intended to give. -
Their "Low-Pressure Tread" is flat. It pro
vides much greater area of road contact than .
a round tread, thereby distributing the weight
evenly to every tread block. That is why the
tread wears slowly and evenly.
. The continuous flexing of a balloon tire on
the road calls for great strength and flexibility
of construction. Latex-treated Web Cord, the
patented process developed and patented by
the United States Rubber Company, meets this
flexing perfectly and accounts for the excep
tional mileage of U. S. Royal Balloons. .
So U. S. Royal Balloons make a real contri
bution to the beauty and the comfort of the
modern car. Start now enjoying the advantages
of true Low-Pressure balloons.
