trol and the Klamath Falls mem
bers of the Hillah drum corps.
Plans for the special Hillah
train are being completed by Jack
Carle, who has arranged for res
ervations for all Shriners who
will board the train Friday. Due
to the fact . that exceptionally
"moderate rates have been secured
for the excursion, few local Shrin

because of the financial end. of
the trip.

pect o join'the group to celebrate

SEE LUCKY 'BREAK' IN
CALIFORNIA'S FAILURE
The misfortune of one individ
ual is capitalized by another and
a calamity in one state is hailed
with delight in another, with,
however, due appreciation of the
other's plight.
Churles Wentworth, manager of
Wentworth & Irwin's Nash di
vision, on a trip to the southern
and eastern parts of the state,
found these fuels to be true. In
Medford In 1128 the average for
the pear crop was $35 a ton
and this year the growers are
contracting at a price of from $50
to $100 for the same weight.
The increase In price, in addition
to a greater public 'acceptance
of the Medford pear crop in east
ern nnd Kuropean centers, 1b di
rectly attributable to the failure
of the California fruit crops, dam
aged by frosts, which will result
In not only a short crop of perish
able fruits but a short pack by
the big canneries.
IVIro Regarded as "Break."
Medford has been visited by
similar fnllures In times past be
fore modern preventive measures
were empUryed, and, Mr. Went
worth says, the present big prices
are being received In the spirit
of just a good break" for them
and "too bad" for the California
orchardlsts.
California's misfortune Is being
shared by tho mill operators at
Klamath Fulls, he says, for when
he visited the latter booming town
discussion was being freely made
that the short crop over the Cali
fornia lino would mean curtail
ment of box Bhook purchases
from the south. However, they
were heartened by the fact that a
big crop on the Oregon side would
mean more boxes from Oregon.

DR. CARPENTER MEETS
Veterans of Belleau Wood Engagement
May Read History of Costly Attacks
When Second Division Meets in Boston
A novel experience several even?
ings ago, while driving along a
well known road a mile west of
Phoenix, was reported this week
by Dr. Emmett J. Carpenter, well
known local chiropractor.
He noticed a pair- of shining
eyes in the darkness some distance
ahead in' the road. . Believing It
to be a cat or a dog, he paid little
attention until he approached near
the object, which he then discov
ered to be a large bear. The anr
mal was so startled by vthe glare
of the lights that In his frantic
efforts, to escape, the boar ran Into
the sfde. of the,.. doctor's par, al
most upsetting it.
The doctor, being out In pursuit
of quiet and surcease from the
dally- grind at the office,, rather
than in search of bear, 'lost no time
in continuing the even tenor of
his wny, while bruin eagerly sought
a safer refuge In the nearby hills.

WASHINGTON, May 28. .
When 2,000 former members of
the Second division meet In Bos- j
ton, May4 30 to June 1, eleventh I
anniversary of the beginning of the!
Belleau Wood engagement, thwirj
celebrated historical committee
will announce the completion oft
the Belleau Wood monograph.
They may read tho hisiory thatj
was made In ten high-casualty at-
tacks on Belleau Wood, June 1 to J
July 18, 1918. j
It comes from the pen of John i
W. Tho mason, Jr., author-Uluutrat-ror,
captain of the United Stales ;
marines, and is part of the gigantic
second division historical section
project In which German original
army records were checked with
those of the American urniy, to
insure accuracy. Captain Thom-
ason spent three months in Ger
many. Kyery statement of his
monograph is supported by refer
ence. Maps of his own sketching
will aid the Second division "reg
ulars" In their reminiscing over the
Belleau battleground, and Captain
Thomason's clear-cut word pictures
will bring back the scenes., Turn
the pages: ' f ' .
'The weather was clear nnd the
sun hot, and merciless on fhiri last
day of May. Tho hard Hue Na
tlonale and the lesser roads bore
a top-dressing of dust, as fine and
white as talcum powder. The" dust
rose and hung thick In the still
air, so that each motor column
went in a cloud of Its own making.
The camions Vent up the right of
the road; on the other side, com
ing down, was the melancholy flow
of refugees a countryside in
flight. The Boche had broken
through again."
The small, buff-hued town of
Belleau and the chateau, Its "Bols
de Belleau" gums preserve turned
battleground appear:
"Trees in full leaf, choked with
heavy underbrush. Within the
woods, a surprising variety of con
tour, unguepsed from the map.
Knolls rise abruptly. Great bould
ers .thrust up from the ground; an
outcropping of these crowned the
height in the south face of the
wood grew, enormous stones, lep
rous with moss, and frost-split, of
ferlng ideal natural protection from
ielt fire and location for machine
guns."
A verbatim translation of Ger
man military experts first Impres
sions of Americans in action. June
i, 1918:
"Gangs of men 10 to 20 strong.
Brave conduct. Alcohol. Home of
the wounded carried on 'despite
their injuries. Our men have
thrown grenades Into those clumps
of men; enemy didn't pay any at
tention to them. Not a bit of
knowledge of tactical principles.
Shoot while they walk with their
rifles under their arms. Carry no
grenades, but use knives, pistols,
rifle-butts and b a y o n ets. Big,
husky fellows, every one of, ..them,
(Howdles.) Absolutely no mtlltary
bearing."
The thick of battle:
"Small, desperate groups rushed
more than half way across the open
wheat betweon tho woodB and the
Lucy-Toray road. Their bodies
wore salvaged weeks afterward."
Again:
"The day's fighting had been of
the closest and, most savage de
scription. The woods were so thick
that all action was local and indi
vidual. The Germans had posted
snipers nnd machine gunners in
trees, and every path and clearing
was commanded from masked po
sitions." Tho Belleau Wood monograph Is
third In a series of five which will
comprise a complete war history
of the Second division. After be
ing proof-read for accuracy by 100
commanders. The entire history
will be slmmereU down to textbook
slr.e for use In military schools.

WILLIAM REED INJURED
,1
SHOULD SEEK
EFEE
If local couples contemplating
divorce proceedings would effect a
saving in money, they would be
wise in filing complaints before
June 7, as an Increase In fees will
go Into effect after that date, the
county clerk's office announced to
day. The increase will affect all
circuit court flllngH, as well as fcos
of the recorder's office.
Tn file ft rtlvorni cnmnlulnt. a
fee of '$lfl.0 will be charged as
compared to the present rate of
$11, and an answer will bring a
court assessment of $8 instead of
the present $5. The last legislature
passed a bill making a flat rate
of f8 on complaint filings and $4
on answers, but the addition of
2 charge to help cover the recent
increase In circuit Judges salaries,
95 to cover Increase of district at
torneys' salaries, and $1.50 to the
county law library, makes a grand
total of $16.50 Xor complaints. Sim
ilar charges also bring up the to
tal on the answers.
Instead of charging 20 cents per
folio for recording, the county re
corder's office will, after June 7
make a minimum charge of $1 for
all recordings If not over five foils.
Folios over this will be charged
at the rate of 20 cents each. A
folio contains 100 words. The sum
of 50 cents for certified copies of
court work will be charged instead
of the usual 25 cents.
A portion of the new charges
went into effect today, but the
main Increase will not come until
next month.
