The recent cold weather was
welcomed by the fruit men. as
it kept the trees from too speedy
advancement. 1
The storm last week, left about
a foot of snow at l'rospeet, and
three feet at Vnion Creek, and
about five feet in the I-ake of
the Woods district. More snow, !
however is needed in the hi IN

KIWAN1S MEETING
lt Plight have lu-en a
hut It happened to he
1'um-ral,
Ki
wunis Hub luncheon, held at the
Hotel .Mi'dCoril this noon. Any-,
way President J. (?. Thompson,
who had planned to devote the
hour and a half to the appoint
ment and i nst rue t ion of new
Kiwani club committees who wiii
carry on the work of the organ
ization dur.ug the next year, was
unavoidably detained in Crescent
City. 1
Huperintendent K. H. Hedrick, f
as vice president was unexpect
edly thrust into the office of pres
ident with no pioKiHin at hand. 1
So he called first upon C. N.
Culy, who had just returned from
Kiwnnis club convention in tho
'wrth. but Mr. Culy did not choose
to speak more than five minutes. I
Then the morale of the club
seemed at a low ebb very low.
fr n seconds and every - I
one chewed their cigars in sil-l
once. Ah the .superintendent's!
face lighted up and the flicker j
tvnm the rt;:ars died down as he1
billed upon C"o:onei Thomson to
H about, his recent promotion
from Crater iike to, Vosemito
park
Ther' was a clatter of applause;
and tho colonel rose to his feet,
walk d over from bis chair prop
ped back anaitist tho wall to the
now deserted table, turned his ;
ciar over in his fiimers silently !
contemplatively- and finally in 1
a voice charged with dirseful j
forebodings, said slowly: j
"1 don't believe leaving Med-1
ford is anything i want to jalk '
about." And the Kiwannms
agreed
in
silent unison. The
ashes on tho end
r so clears came to
accumulated
"f the L'O 1
life once more as deep puffs sent
their ehoes back and forth across
the dining hall.
With a weal; smile, the dis
couraged vice president finally
calbd upon Kred 11. Kiser. vis
itini; Knwanian from t'i'atUs l'ass.
Thii K'nt:enian rose reluctantly
to his feet, and after reminding

ludcd: !(ut I didn't come up hero to

FALL IS PREDICTED
The cold spell of tho past two
ijays wit h a minimum yesterday of
tl I above, which broke this winter's
record so far. and of lit above this
ino.uinj; shortly after T oMock,
I seems to lie enuPiK. Out there will
; possibly he more snow as the offl-
elal forecast issued this n.rnin?;
i was lor unsettled weather for to-
! niKht and Tuesday, possible local
ittiow, turnlag to rain, and a rising
tetnperuture.
Whilo there are traces left In the
city and valley of the snow of Kri-
day night and faturdav, the snow-
is still deep in the hills and moan-,
j tains. On the iircenspring moun
tain highway between Ashland and
I Klaiuath Kalis, there ate two ami
in half feet of snow and although
the snow plows had been UoiUing
on the Pacific highway in the Sis
Myous there are still six inches of
hard -packed snow near the inoiui
tain summit.
.lioth hi-;l ways are dangerous to
motor travel without chains and
the exercise of much caution.
While no reports were received
yesterday and today as to snow
depth in Crater National park, it is
thought that the past few days
have seen a great fall of snow- In
(hat high elevation. It is known
that there was over three feet of
snow at Pnion creek and four feet
at Ihe Crater park entrance a a late
as last Friday, ami this depth is
supposed to have been much aug
mented since.
Altho Martin Palmer and Arthur
T. Moeu of the Cialer National
park office here started last week
to make an Inspection of the park
conditions they returned to the city
Saturday nr yesterday, having been
able to get no larther than the
park entrance, where there was four
feet of soft snow. It took two
days with ti e aid of a snow plow
to net back with their car as far as
I nion creek, where there was three
feet of snow of the saino consist
ency. Mr. Moeu was laid up at
homo today because of having pass
ed through this trying period.
Scores of Medford people yester
day took advantage of tho good
weather by spetidiii-; Ihe day in tho
Slskiyous and (ireensprlngs moun
tains enjoying winter sports, with
the largest crowd of winter recrea-
! tionislH at the Dollarhide field in
tho Slskiyous. Tho .mow was over
knee deep at both places and was
of tho right consistency to make.
Hiding and tobogganing especially
enjoyable. Modt'o.d residents out
numbered others present by more,
than two to one and several parties
spent the entire day in tho snow,
