Owen, general man ager of the Owen-Oregon company, he said today. 1 IFa Bald the chief engineer to be Belocted would have complete charge of the work and that when the survey crew would take the field was a matter for his deci sion. Mr. Owen said the object of the purvey would be to determine if a route to Klamath county, in a southeasterly direction, was feas bile and to secure figures on its estimated cost. He reiterated that the railroad was strictly an Owen Oregon project, made necessary to furnish a speedy outlet for their own timber. A topography map of the sec tion will be made and the plan to have pictures for thjs purpose tak en by airplane has been abandoned us impractical. 4 SALE FOR FRIDAY Uurleson's store was closed to day in order that the management could complete arrangements for their first semi-annual sale, which will begin tomorrow, Friday, at 10 . m.'

D. Collier, local manager. I In order to lift the heavy burden from the telephone company and to facilitate service for local busi ness houses, the Western Union is. installing call boxes in down-town places of business, including de , partment stores, banks, packing! houses and other commercial cen ters. These, divided on two per 1 manent circuits, will, with the mere pressingof a button, register a direct call from the place of: business to the Western X'nion of ; tice. The messenger will come di- j rectly to the source of the call and; pick up the telegram. 1 This type of service, due to the expense of Installation, is given ; only in towns whose quantity and ; quality of business has run Into the big city class, according to Mr. Collier. I The local Western Union office, which has enjoyed a tremendous increase In business year by year. has become a considerable prob ; lem to the Medford telephone com- j pany. With two separate wires nl-: ready the log registers an average of a telephone call every two min utes through the day. The installation of tills system of over 100 call boxes in the business section ot Medford will clear the telephone lines Into the office, fa cilitating matters for resident service. A crow of men started work to day on the installation of call boxes, expecting to complete the job within the next month in ample time for the fruit season rush.
