Wood Products Use Made By Hemstreet Airport
Most Important of Year's Accomplishments, Says
Secretary Baker's Report.
The on tiro section surrounding
Medford is a.s much a part til the
city na the city itwelf and cor
poration lines are but imaginary,
said p, B. Arniold of Los Angeles,
president of the Arniold Husiness
institute, at Dm kl'coihI annual
Community Hom Products Run-;
quel ut th Kilts temple hist
night, under the auspices of the
Midford Chamber of Commerce,
assisted by the Kotury, Lions und
Kiwanis clulis.
Corporation lines were mado
only for the convenience of solv
ing civic problems, such us taxes
and ordinances applying only to '
those living within In its limits.
However, in the past, said the
speaker, suspicion and prejudice
has grown about tho lines. In
bo me cases residents of the city
look upon those on the outside
with prejudice and those on the
outside look in with suspicion.
"But such is not the case In
Medford," said Mr. Arnold, "as
I see you have with you a repre
sentative group of grangers and I
understand the co-operation be
tween you is commendable. That
Is the way it should be. With
the co-operation, the conditions for
both will be mutually benefited,
as a city Medford Is bound to
chow further growth. v
,, ."Suspicion. ..and prejudico,''-' he
continued, "are 'two of " t'ho four
.ubstacles to any city's growth and
tself-satlsf action and indifference
are the other two. Indifference
of merchants and citizens toward
any puhlic spirited move has been
and is te cause for many corpo
rations staying in the small town
class, because Its citizens would
not go out of their way to bene
fit their community.
Selfishness Hurts.
"In other cases it Is self-satisfaction
with present conditions
that hold buck the progress of a
"community. The people are sel
fish in their motives and' can
not -see that benefits for another
will also be a benefit to them
selves. "Included In the five steps that
can be taken to improve your city
are organization, advertising, co
operation, efficient merchandising
and community loyalty," said Mr.
Armold.
"Organization is necessary If
results are to be accomplished and
in that way an unorganized com
munity can not be superior to one
that Is fully organized. Organized
communities go out and get what
they want. Advertising, telling
the world what you have, is es
sential to progress. It has been
the means of many cities growing
into metropolfserf. It built Los
Angeles Into tho metropolis of the
"Before my third baby was born
ray husband advised me to take your
medicine and he bought me three
bottle of it. When I had taken the
first one I began to teel better so I
kept on during the whole period.

we arc so proud ot him and praise-

west const and if tho right meth-:
od is used, remarkable results
can bo expected In the case of
Medford. Ijos Angeles spent a
million and one half dollars for
advertising alone lust year, mean
ing about one dollar" out of every
thuiisund that was produced. Here
you could afford to spend two dol
lars for every thousand produced
and expect due results in return.
Instead of $14,000 per year, you
should be spending (30.000.
"The Ijos Angeles Chamber of
Commerce- extends lis greetings
to you and is willing to co-operate
with you in whatever you do.
That city realizes its growth is
affected by the growth of tho
entire Pacific coast. The chamber
will willingly distribute literature
for you in 'your efforts to bring
more peoplo to this wonderful sec
tion. .1
Loyalty Is Asset,
- "Community loyalty," continued
Mr. Armold, "is a great asset,
and it is sadly in need when
local citizens begin knocking vand
fail to tell strangers In tho city
of the opportunities offered. It
is the duty of the citizens to buy
at home und the merchants to M.-U
at home. - It is further the duty
of all to eliminate the business
and :coiniminity parasites. The
-former uro 'mbrchants, who make
their money in the city, but refuse
to co-uperato in public spirited
moves and the- latter are those
who earn their money, in a com
munity, but purchase goods and
supplies outside. .
"The chamber of commerce is
the hub of civic activities and
service clubs and other organiza
tions are spokes leading to the
hub in the spirit of co-operation.
However, if a spoke attempts to
be 'a hub the, value of co-operation
Is lost and favorable results
can not be expected.
"Do, not forget to be courteous
to the stranger in your midst,"
said Mr. Armold, "for ho will be
und is one of your biggest adver
tisements. He will tell others on
his travels of. the city of Med
ford, but if you welcome him with
little or no consideration, . what
can you expect of him when he
leaves!"
"You can not get favorable
results through the efforts, of
knockers," he said in concluding.
Durinc the course, of his speech.

Program Outlined.
The only other speaker, at any
length, was Carl Swigart, presi
dent of the chamber, who outlined
the program tho chamber had
chosen for the ensuing year, and
dwelt a short time on each fea
ture. A plea for thfr tine ot homo
products by preferring wooden
box containers, instead of paper
box containers, was made by John
Hemstreet, representing the Em
ployes Lumber Products Project
committee. He reviewed the im
portunce of tho lumber industry
to Medford. The Tomlln Box
company, he said, expended $46.1,
156.95 for labor, and employs 122
men, of whom 63 own their own
homes. The Owen-Oregon Lum
her company employs t00 men
and has annual expenditure of
$1,291,000, of which 6995,000 Is
direct payroll, of the employes
of this company, 75 per cent are
married men. The advent of the
paper hox on the market has
proven to be a serious problem,
and on the Pacific coast, he aid,
and has cut into the lumber in
dustry to the extent of 20 mil
lions of dollars. He urged the
public to co-operate in requesting
the ue of wooden packing boxes
and in this way overcome the
present situation.

Over for Two Days
An .old saying that, the naked
truth frequently proves embarrass
ing supplies a theme, to "Nothing
But the Truth," Kichurd Dix's first
all-talking comedy, which Is being
held over , for two more days at.
Hunt's Craterian theater. -
Dix appears as a man who lays
a $10.0(10 wager he will tell noth
ing but the truth for 24 hours.
Under the terms of the agreement
he Is forbidden to state his reason
for speaking plainly.
Simply by expressing his inmost
thoughts on any subject brought up
in conversation he almost loses his
sweetheart, nearly brings about a
divorce for his prospective father-in-law
and insults his dearest
friends. ,
Helen Kane plays the role of a
doll-faced vamp and sings several
numbers in her distinctive "blues"
style.
