Olio. Fur 50 years Mrs. s. J. Hesslor, "27 North Grape street, pioneer of Jackson county has carried tho same purse, she has had only one other puree in her possession during that time, and that was one she found with four cents In it. and was never able to locale ihe owner. Hut the 50-year-old liursa is just like an old friend, and is as suhiitanlinl now as when it was new, according to the pioneer lady, u Is a two by. four pin seal case with strong locks which snap shut with u bold defiance of both time and hard usage. Having encased a young fortune in small change and paper bills during its career, and having been silent witness to much of tho trag edy and comedy that Bo to make up a well-rounded life, the purse has u definite personality that attracts attention wherever it goes. It'has often been the source of admiration and comment from curious observers, and this morn ing became the target of a third degree by a group of women In the Hutchison Mercantile com pany, pari of which was over heard by a Mall Tribune reporter. Mrs. Hesslcr, who formerly lived In Nebraska, received the purse as. a gift frum a merchant In her homo town 50 years ago, with a illi-cc'iit piece in It for good luck. A remars was passed by the merchant at that time that the pockelbuok contained a penny for each of the number of years he expected the strong locks yt the purse lo endure. Tho locks tiro still good for another 00 years anyway, according to Mrs. Hessler, who has lived in Jackson county for the past -1:1 years.

U. i Inskecp who pointed out that ' tourist travel, which is u means of i revenue for local merchants and I camp ground operators, is al.o u burden on the lax iwyers. The "flivver tramp," who usu.illy has no money nml a huge family. Is the thorn in the side of the county court and the local I ted Cross j chapter. I "During the past few years." i'snld Dr. Inskeep. "Jackson coun ty's position as a port of entry for tourist travel from the south has been an increasingly difficult one. The problems are not alone such na affect the tourist, as roads and camps, but reach that dearest pos session, the taxpayer'? pocket book. The question of what to do with the "flivver tramp" Is one which has vexed the county court, the Kcd Cross and the long suffer ing public. The public suffers through lack of information in regard to what menus are avail able for the care of these "flivver tourists." "The I ted Cross maintains a woodpile and mo one need go hun gry, for all that he needs to earn a meal is sufficient ambition to split some firewood. Tho curious thing is that during March and April over a hundred applied for meals and were sent to the wood yard but not one showed, up. H was easier to beg from house wives or go into stores and complain of lack of relief from the Ited Cross ' or county court. There is no need for any of these tourists to lack for food all that is necessary is a little ambition to work. "In the matter of county aid." continued Dr. Inskeep, "except in those cases where acuto illness is present, this county has the same rule as all other countiCH along the Pacific highway. A residence of one year is required before tho in digent is able to apply for county aid. If help is desired sooner, the indigent is Requested to return to the county of which he is a resi dent. This county being on the highway and being situuted In a great country, attracts many who camp by the roadsidu and then ask the moro industrious of the community to support them. I ! was this type of caso that caused this rule to be put into effect." "It you are interested in some one who is traveling through," tmid the doctor in conclusion, "and he needs a meal, send him to the Ited Cross wood pile and If willing to .work, ha will oat. If interested In getting county aid for some family, find out whether or not the family has resided in this county for one year, and if not auk them to return to the county from whence they came and where they are still legal residents."

Don't Make alby Out of Baby -Babies HaveTsTerves- By Ruth Brittain The Weather One of the most successful "smokers" ever 1 eltl heru was the hi; American I.et:ion smoker put on at Hilarity hall last night hy Meilt'nrd Post No. lit. The affair was In tho nature of a "get to gether meeting" for the Legion naires. (!. A. It. and Spanish-American war veterans of Jackson coun ty, and Its success Is indicated by the attendance, which was esti mated at over 500. A large num ber of business men wero also present as guests of tho local le gionnaires. Tho meeting was opened with a short address of welcome by Post Commander Horace Bromley, who then turned Hie protram over to Frank Farrell, ehuirmnii of the smoker convmiltee. A lino musical program by the Legion U-pieco orchestra preceded the wrestling and boxing bonis and provided plenty of jazz f.iv the in termissions as well ns during the serving of the eats.

Curloy Woods and Tod Marshall next lilt tho mat in a close context, with Curloy com ing out victor. I'our fust rounds of boxing be tween l'nt l'ndolford of Modford and Jim Mcl'atlden resulted In a (locision for tho former. An amateur exhibition between Cecil liurrlck of Ciinnls l'aits nnd Prof. Connln Conrad of Ashland Normal kept Ihe audience on Mm Jump with its thrills, finally being called a draw. Tho main ovonl. of tho cveniti'; was a "big lime" match between Sailor Jack Wood of Medrord and Stanley KogetH of tlrants Pars, go ing :0 minutes without a full. Koine clover work developed lit llila match and thrillH wero constant from start to finish. In this bout Harry Scholz showed the audience and also tho contestants somo now wrinkles In lereroulng. When Hie wrestlers hecamn too familiar witli him, Hchol, pitched Into the com bat and nearly scored two fulls In loss Ihtin two minutus. It is safe to say that no local wrestling match cvor rocelved any more laughs or applause than did litis event. Following the pre'rum the Ixt glon commit loo sorvod hundreds of hot-dog sandwiches and near-beer to the crowd with plenty of reserve Huppliea for "soconds."

Mr. Jlolger also advised against the practice of supporting all ad vertising schemes that came to the attention of merchants without becoming thoroughly acquainted with each one. lie advised mer-1 chants t develop courtesy among J clerks, a sue It practlco would! prove to be one of tho best uHselsi of any establishment. City streets will henceforth be kepi somewhat In u better condi tion, according to u report by ltobert Strang, chairman of a spe cial commltte, who reached the concluslen following a conference with city officials. He ulso sug gested that sidewalks should be swept by merchants directly In front of their establishments dur ing tho evening before the streets are hwept by tho city's special ma chine. However, If tho Improved .street condition Is lo be made per manent, ihe Merchants' association and other civic organizations must continue with requests for con tinued Improvements, the report of the committee, of which Mr. Strang was chairman, Indicated. Tho pr.-.ctico of several local stores selling butter not made la Mcdford wait scored und it waji suggested that each More, which sells local butter exclusively, must display a placard, "Wo sell nothing but butter made at home." in order lo distinguish the .stores to the cus tomers. .Tho association also voted to support the npcclal- fair tax levy for county fair ground Improve ments nnd authorized the printing of window cards In support of the tax.
