"The year ltliiS has far exceed imI
any previous season and It is tho
opinion that from now on Crater
Lake' National park is so well es
tablished in California and through
out the east that an increased trav
el ij assured toy each year to
come," said R. W. Price of the Cra
ter Lake lodge, iu reviewing the
success of the summer period which
ends with the closing of the hotel
next Friday.
"Three factors which popularized
the park were the wonderful high
ways to tho park, tbe publicity of
the Oregon newspapers within our
own state, and the national pub
licity given us by tho Southern Pa
cific companj throughout Califor
nia and the east. It has been
proven to us this year tout those
are the three factors that abso
lutely put us across. The travel
from California has increased about
one-third here at the lodge, and
our eastern business that was
brought to us on the trains and
hauled over our transportation line
has increased over 50 per cent,"
Mr. Price stated in further discuss
ing the resort.
Sixteen per cent of the entire re
ceipts for the season were derived
from the people coming from the
east over Oregon transportation
lines. These reservations were sold
by different railroad companies
and by all of the most important
travel bureaus throughout the east
and California.
Tourist parlies from suh agen
cies as the Raymond, Whltcomb,
Gillespie, Kiuports and Beard hav-i
visited the park.
Work on the new cafeteria and
ho use keep in.1? cabins iu the camp
ground is progressing satisfactorily!
and will undoubtedly increase bus
iness during another year, Mr.
Price reported. The long talked of
veranda in front of the hotel has
been started as an additional im
provement. 4

TO GET
ELECTRIC POWER
PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. IS. 7P
Portland industrial electric power
rates are to be slashed 10 to 30 per
cent immediately.
The cut was announced today by
Franklin T. Griffith, president oT
the Portland Klectrie Power com
pany, and Guy W. Talbot, presi
dent of the Northwestern. It fol
lowed an investigation launched
last month' by a special committee
of tbe chamber of commerce.
The committee sought confer
ences with local power chiefs to
determine reasons for Portland's
disparity in electric rates- with
other coast cities. After compara
tively brief negotiations, the power
companies agreed to slash electric
charges 10 to 30 per cent to meet
the couvpetition . of oilier west
coast communities'.'
"Tbe power rate reductions an
nounced today arc merely a ges
ture and the purpose back of them i
is to stave off the investigation
that my firm is making in behalf j
of the city," said Kenneth G. liar- '
lan, the power expert who is rep-
resenting the city In proceedings 1
now before the public service com-;
mission to reduce the valuations of
the Portland Klectrie and North

aro 11 miles of roads on which cars
can travel and there are 4-itl high
priced automobiles in the place.
Mr. Lyman said. Tho Rotary club
at Ketchikan consists of ifi mem
bers and is the farthest north of
any Rotary group In America. The
Medford tourists were guests at a
meeting during their stay in the
town.
"I have never wanted to go to
Alaska as much as 1 do right now.
There's a lot to see and much to
learn," Mr. Lyman seated. The
weather iu some parts of Alaska
was reported to be as mild as that
of Medford.
Other features of today's prog
grain were vocal solos to uki;'."le
accompaniment by Paul Davenport,
of Whitman's shop, and a delightful
violin number by Karl Mouldrcn,
accompanied by Sterling Rother

junior Rotary club, to ho known

that there will probably be two
junior drum corps formed, one
sponsored by the Hoy Scouts and
the other by tho Rotary club.

ing in view of the Chamber of Com
merce forum scheduled for next

Our Answer Is
Winning Con

Every Purchase
Is the Founda
tlon of This
Business!
We buy and sell only standard, first-quality
goods. Wc do not handle bankrupt stocks, im
perfect goods or "seconds." Hence we have no
pretext for "reducing prices."
New goods are arriving at our store almost con
tinuously. Nothing remains on our shelves
long enough to become shop-worn. Hence
there is no occasion for our holding "price
slashing events" to get rid of such obsolete mer
chandise. When new merchandise is received at this store
the lowest possible price consistent with the
market value of the goods is placed on it.
You get the advantage of this low price EVERY
DAY and not alone on special "sales" occasions.
We want you to shop at your convenience. No
need to rush in today to enjoy a low price. Tho
same low price will be here tomorrow.
