The motor traffic here is probubly heavier than in any other section of the city. When cars arc parked on1 both sides of this street, and the traffic stream is running heavily, both north and south, and east and west, congestion is not only inevitable, but the situa tion is positively dangerous. To straighten: and widen this street and bridge might be expensive, but it would be money well invested. Not only would the improvement enhance the value of the abutting property materially, but it would improve the traffic conditions of the entire business district, and eliminate an inexcusable threat to the lives of motorists and pedestrians. AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MEDPORD YOUNG MEN THE formation of this headquarters company in Medford offers an unusual opportunity for young nicn to get a valuable education and get paid for it. The enrollment will be 'limited to 17. Of this number nine will be eligible as non-comnussioned officers and three as pri vates of the first class. At each meeting there will be only 10 or 13 minutes of (trilling. Jlost of the time will 'be devoted to classroom work. This work will bo instruction in the technicalities' of the radio, telegraph, telephone and other media of communication a knowledge that will add. not only to the enjoyment but the earning power of. each individual in civil life-. The pay is not large but it is negotiable, and will bring in about $5000 to be spent in this city annually. Only a more general knowledge of what this headquarters company, means should be necessary to complete the enroll ment for this platoon and establish a waiting list next Tuesday night. . .

Two bankers. In I.lttlo tlock, Ark., and In YbtblnKtun, D. C, yesterday deplored tho fact '.that "outsiders" lend money on call In Wall streot. Ono bankor thought It very un just that n customer should send money to his bank and say "Lend this for mo at 20 par cent." Of brokers' loans two and a half billions are provided by regular bankers, (hreo and a half billions by "outsiders' . It IS too bad that bankers should not eat the whole rake. Ilul after all, making 15 or 2R per cent on two and a half billions Isn't so bad. . If the call money market d im pended on - bunkers exclusively, you might pay 60 per cent, Like others, banker can resist almost anything except lemjila lion.

Java More Appealing to John Johnson Than Any Prospects of Heavenly Home EGG WEEK PLAN The National Poultry Council have rtcMfgnutt U thlw week 'an Na tional jKsb Week. It 1h important that the home people be advised and keep In touch with first, the Importance of the egg an a human food product, accond, the Importance of the in dustry In thin valley. Ah a com mercial Industry poultry has over taken one agricultural , product after another until it la now hold ing fifth place in money value in the entire line of agricultural pro ducts. Ho successful has commercial egg farming become that we now refer to It as the ono and one quarter billion dollar industry. Few of our people are acquainted with the fact in regacd to the qual ity of eggs being produced in the Pacific northwest, which includes Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. About five years ago they began to sell eggs In New York City on the egg exchange at auction and at that time the extraordinary quality of ckks being produced in this section of the country became known to the egg users of the greater eastern market. From the very start these eggs sold from four to seven cents a dozen above fresh eggs produced In tho imme diate vicinity of the exchange and furthermore they still command, a premium over the eggs being pro duced in that section of the coun try. That being the caso It is easy to see the importance of su port ing the Industry in this valley. . Tho Farmers Exchange Coop erative of this city have shown a big spirit In promoting the poul try industry In the valley and to that end the people of Medford will not soon forget the splendid display; the Exchange had on ex hibit recently at the armory. It was their purpose to show the im portance of producing eggs of the highest nutritional vulue and to do this means that pure and unadul terated feed is ncccHsury to make pure eggs. . , 4 . PIULADKM'JIIA. May 4. ?) Mrs. Klla II. Pancoast "Wdmor, wlfo of JoHcph Widcner, died today. Sho was . widely known in social circles. '"Were I to dlo and find my self in Ilea von, I think I'd ask; to bo transferred to Java." That Is tho way John W. Johnson, who with Scott Duvis, just returned from a six month's tour around tho world, ex pressed his prefer ence for this land ovor others thru which they trav eled. "Exotic, colorful, fragrant, with Us balmft sleop-pro-voklng atmos phere Its tall banyan trees, with 'iWild orchids cltmb v Ing up through their branches and Tho coffee In Java, according to Mr. Johnson, Is so strong that ono sip would make a man cross-eyed for throo days.. It is a caso of putting1 ' coffee In your cream, rather than cream In your coffee, ho said. Mr. Johnnon, who was not Im pressed with Paris, however car ries ono happy memory nwoy from that city. It was a follies production, which ho described as the most enjoyable and entertain ing show ha has ever seen In his life, In spite of nol being able to understand a word of tho actors' dialogue. Tho costumes, scenic effects, lighting, music, dancing and acting were superbly exquisite, ho said. The ancient palace of Frederick m - -.. -i-. ' the Great at Dresden, Germany, U.

The natives of this land have beautifully formed bodies and friendly, joyous souls, according to the local man, who described them as rather small of stature, with chocolate brown fkfns and beautiful dark eyes, more widely open than those of other Orien tals. , "What they wear la In good taste, considering tho climatic conditions. The women havo a pretty custom of wearing brilliant flowors In their hair, especially when they are performing In dances or rites of any kind, ho said. "Another custom they havo Is not so pretty they smoke cigars quite generally. But tho worst of all Is tholr apparent liking for beetle nut. which they chew all through the day. Thin keeps their otherwise beautifully formed tooth blood red. and gives tholr mouths the apperpince of being mutilated. Mr. Johnson told of one even ing when a group of tourists, in cliidlng himself and Mr. Davis, got up a purse at tho hotel and i had them bring some Javanowj entertainers into the lobby. The' group presented an original pnn- tomlmo which demonstrated con siderable native dramatic talent. according to Mr. Johnson. There wero also selections by a native orchestra of torn toms and other musical Instruments used In that country. A young1 Javanese girl, bedeck ed In brilliant vnlls and flowers In her hair, spent several minutes on a Javanexo dance executed monotonously to the rhythm of torn toms. Wenry of tho repeti tion and desiring a HtUo Ameri can jau. Mr. Johnnon attempted the greatest collection of goms In the world. One neck luce ho re members, had a strand ' of dia monds, 20 to 25 karats each. Also In tho collection are crowns, scepters, numerous snuff boxes, and golden dishes all Inluld with exquisite jewels. "U was tho custom In tho days of Frederick tho .Great and other dominating' rulers for lessor sov ereigns to send lavish gifts to their palaces as tokens of goodj win anu approval, cxpiuincu uio local traveler, who estimated that there was considerably more' than enough wealth represented In the crown jewels of this ancient palace to pay off tho German obli gation. Ht. peters In Home was another sight which greatly Impressed Mr. Johnson and Mr. Davis. In this anclont, world famous cdlftco is the work of tho greatest masters of painting, sculptorlng and de sign, j Mr. Johnson found the Italian people rather cold, dignified and formal entirely opposlto to the Impression of them held by tho' average American ovor here. " 1 Radio Program KMED Mall Trlbune-Vlrgln Station A largo number of local music lovers enjoyed tho notable "re quest" organ recltnl by Miss Het ty Brown over station K.MK1) last Tuesday evening. The program which was sponsored by tho Cali fornia Oregon Power company scored a decided hit with alt who to snap the orchestra up into afiintened In and caused a great faster tempo, but to no avail. Finally he went across the room, took the frightened girl by the hand and led her around the room In a fox trot. The orchestra stopped altogether and the Ameri cans were forced to hum tho tune for the exhibition dance. ' It wasn't long beforo the girl caught onto the rhythm of the American musUi and followed the steps perfectly. The Incident fi nally strung her sense of humor, and she and her companions bur.it! into prolonged fits of glee," he j aid. deal of favorable comment lo cally.
