While the mayor and city coun
cllmen, except K. M. Wilson, after
bavins studied over the renewal
ordinance to Kraut the Home Tela
phone and -Telegraph company u
JO-year. franchise, dating from Oc
tober 23 next, the date the pres
ent 10-year franchise expires, ap
proved the new ordinance, deeming
that it contained all proper safe
guards to the .Medford public, ac
tion last night was deferred be
yond giving the ordinance its first
reading, at tho behest of Mr. Wil
son, who requested that a commit.
- tee of five citizens be appointed
by Mayor Pines to look over the
tonus of the ordinance with the
council license committee, acting
In an advisory capacity, to see that
It contained every safeguard for
the people.
.There was much discussion dur
inn which the mayor and other
councilmen held that the proced
ure would be useless and unneces
sary, pointing out that the council
cqmrnltteo hud already endorsed
the ordinance, and that investiga
tion and . study by the councilmen
had .shown that It was all right in
every -regard, especially as the
council' had nothing to do with
rates and service, those functions
being entirely in the hands of the
public -service commission.
Former City Attorney John II.
Curkin. who was present, also di
luted on the fact that the question
of service and rates .rented solely
with tho public service commission
und that the city council only hud
tho right to say where poles and
wfres should be placed.
It was also pointed out by the
councilmen that the renewal ordi
nance in question was practically
the same as was the 10-year fran
chise just about to expire, which,
it was said, had proved satisfac
tory all this time.
Of course Councilman R. B. Ham
mond, who is manager of the tele
phone company, tool; no. part In
the discussion, beyond to state that
it had been (he policy of his com
pany to always co operate witn the
city, that that policy would con
tinue, and -that he hoper there
vou!d be.no unnecessary ifmny as
the company had' already began
work on its big expansion and im
provement program.
Kven Mr. Wilson had no fault to
find with the expiring franchise or
dinance, or the renewal ordinancp,
yet he . said ho thought that as a
matter of policy and precaution it
would be better to have the opinion
of outside citizens. '
' Then his motion to have the
mayor appoint a committee of five
business men to act in. an advisory
capacity was put to a vote.. The
vote wus tied. .This put it up to
Mayor Plies.tA.. coat the deciding
vote, ahd saying that, as he cotiuld
see no harm in such a procedure,
ho voted yes. Orey,. Wing and Wil
son voted for tho motion, and Col
lilts, McKlhose and Kershaw against
it. .
. Mayor Pipes will appoint , the
committee as soon as possible with
the understanding that the com
mittee will complete its investiga
tion of the ordinance In time for
it to be voted on at the next coun
cil meeting, two weeks from now,
or much sooner at a special meet
ing if the committee can be ready.
: The franchise was not exclusive,
it was explained, and covers a pe
riod of 10 years., The city is given
control over the construction and
repairing of all telephone plants
and is protected In all matters of
damages, etc.; during construction
and maintenance.
The city receives 10 free tele
phones und $1000 in cash under
the agreement, which is the same
franchise under which the company
has operated for. 10 years, with
harmony on both sides. ;

been instil uted at -Medford hish
school. There are a lare num
ber of causes for failure, most
of which are preventable, accord
ing to flohool authorities. Despite
t He nature of, iha caue in any
particular case, it is advantageous
to both parcntH and- students to
know .that work' It) sume courses
Is unsatisfactory, and' the reasons.
The sehrrol year of vtifl. weeks is
divided Into two semesters, ami
each semester Into three six
week periods, Kepqrt cards are
Isiuied at the close of each six
weeks. 'During- the third week of;
the period, yellow slips are filled
out for each student dolus un- j

rertly to the parents. The slips ;
show the name' of tho student and j

that they were received by them.
In mofct cases, parents appre

the issuance of the slips, but In
some cases the parents mako the
mistake of .believing that yellow
