approximately $rO.0l0. expended
in the upkeep of the streets and
road department, lie declared that
the udministnition't work during
thin period wan Kreatly facilitated
lty the support of the people as a
whole. His address follows:
"CIcntlemen of the Council: Two
yeais ago when the admfnistra
t 'on which now comes to a close
assumed the responsibilities of our
city government, we did so with o
definite promise to the people of
Medford that we would apply n
business policy In city affairs. It
Is therefore proper at this time
that we give an accounting of our
fltoward-ship, with n brief resume
of what thl council has-done.
"Of the eight members of the
iMuncllmanic body with which we
started two years ano, only four
of you remain on members of the
present roup; two vacancies oc
curred by removal from the city,
onu, by resignation and one by
death, thus making a f0 per cent
turnover in the council during the
two years.
"We have been fortunate in fill
ing; these vacancies with men who
have hnd a single purpose in mind
in the discharge or their official
duties -that of .service to the com
munity. This thought and pur
pose has been dominant In the
niiuil of every member of this
:i-oup, which has made It possible
lo tackle and to solve the prob
lem and meet the responsibilities
a.tley have arlnen, with no regard
for'- political effects or factknal
favors.
Orricials Fallhrnl. '
Vith this meeting we are bring
ing to u close the twenty-second
biennial period of the municipal
government of our city. We have
held every regular meeting during
the entire period of the adminis
tration,, and in addition thereto,
we- ' have conducted twenty-five
P''cinl meetings, which I? equal to
oun full year from the standpoint
of reuular scheduled meetings, and
we have never failed to have a
quorum present for the transac
tion of business.
"Twenty-one mayors have served
mir; city as Its chief executive prior
lo the administration now closing,
and approximately one hundred
and seventy men have served in the
ciipaelty of eouncilmen, and have
e -iitributed their bit in the for
ward ma,rch of Medford's progress.
"We have grown from a hamlet
?f a few hundrcdsouN at the be
ginning of our corporate existence
lo one of the most Important com
mercial centers of our state in
mill, with a population of fifteen
thousand people.
Knrly (Jroutti slow.
"(irowth ,ln the early years of
our city's history was flow but con
sistent, and always of a sulwtantlal
character, which gave Inspiration
to the inhabitants of thirty years
mm to took to the future with hope
nnd confidence.
"In the ycurs of 1906 and l!07
the- growth of our city began to
gather Impetus and this. continued
with increasing momentum up to
the. year I!10 when It developed
inio.a building boom which col
lapsed in lit 1 2. and five years were
req u I red for recovery a ml re a d -.bisiincnt.
Medford learned her
lesson und since lilt 7 her consist
ent and steady growth h.Vs been in
keeping with the expansion of the
great empire of which we are the
commercial center.
"Though plans of the early ad
ministration were not as well laid
out ami as comprehensive as they
might have been for future expan
sion, neither were they without
vision nn builders of their day.
hen traffic problem and the
movement of the commerce of a
city were of but tittle concern.
"As a natural consequence, we
ate confronted today with too many
narrow and dead end streets. Sub
divisions have been permitted In
tlie years gone by without the
proper coordination of streets al
ready ctablTaed. and without pro
vision for through thoroughfares
tciding through the city In each
direction o( the eompnss to permit
rapid And easy movement of traffic
and commerce.
Irnln Problem.
"This constitute on eof the city's
most perplexing problems and is
one which has received a great
deal of attention during the past
two year, both by the council and;
the planning commission, resulting!
in a comprehensive outline of city I
planning which will not only be j
effective In correcting many mis.-)
takes of the past, but will guide!
future administrations in building
a city from plans rather than by
haphazard methods.
"The planning commission is do
ing constructive work In city af
fairs and complete harmony exists
between that body und the council.
"Several streets have already
been improved by extensions and
the elimination of dead cuds, and
others are on the program for the
immediate future, most Important
of which a re the No rt h Oc n t ra 1
outlet to the Pacific highway ntttl
the opening of Fourth aud Eighth
streets across the railroad, in the
very heart of the city, which Is of
major importance to the business
and inner fire zone.
"Petitions have been filed with
the public service commission for
these openings and briefs are be
ing prepared for the hearing.
"These matters should continue
to receive the aggressive attention
of this body until the streets are
opened.
New Traffic Artery.
"With the completion of the Cot
tage street bridge across Hear
creek, the opening of Klghth street
across the railroad will provide an
other artery of travel between the
east and the west side and through
the business district, thus relieving
congestion at Main nnd Hlverside
and over the Main street bridge.
"The matter of sewage disposal
is another major problem which
has received much attention dur
ing the past two years, and upon
which considerable datu has been
gathered In the study of various
types of plants now in use. The
topography of the city is audi as
to eliminate serious und difficult
engineering problems fjuch as con
front many cities, nnd with the
information now in hand the coun
cil can proceed in preparation for
the construction of a plant to ac
commodate our present and imme
diate future needs, with provision
for the addition of other units as
the growth of the city may require.
New Park Sites.
"During the past bicnnlum we
have set aside two small park sites
within the city and have done con
siderable work in their develop
ment; one on North Riverside and
one at the Intersection of Ivy and
North Oakdale.
"We have purchased 1G0U acres
on Roxy Ann and are carrying on
negotiations with the state high
way department for 1st develop
ment. TJjis movement was spon
sored by the Lions club of our city
and much credit is dub them hot
alone for carrying on negotiations
with the federal department for
the purchase of this park, but also
for their donation to the city of
200 acres additional land adjoin
ing the IGOO-acrp tract.
"We aro negotiating the purchase
of the P. fc K. tract consisting of
19 acres lying along Hear creek,
within the city, and are making
plans for developing It as a unit
of the Rear creek IJoulevard park.
Successful Airport,
"We have purchased 2X0 acres
for a municipal airport and have
constructed one of the outstanding
class "A" airports In the entire
western part of the I'nlted States,
which is now In successful opera
tion. "The cost of this airport, white
representing an Investment of ap
proximately 175.000.00. was held
within the 9120,000.00 bond Issue
in money spent by this body, all
of which was judiciously Invested
and every dollar made to do 100
cent's worth of service.
"The cost above the $J 20.oo0
was contributed by the water emii
'mlwsion In extending a water line
to the field, and by six oil com
panies who have installed modern
and attractive equipment, und who
pay a minim u m f ra nchlsc to t he
cMy of $720 per annum.
"We have completed plans ind
awarded a contract for the con
struction of a $20. (mo reinforced
concrete bridge across Hear crek
at Cottage street. We have re
constructed the Jackson street
bridge at n cost of $4,400,
"We carried to completion the
construction of a new cltj' fire
hall at a cost of $3ti.000. and the
purchase of two new fire trucks
costing $13,700, this improvement
having been projected by the pre
ceding administration.
NeV l-ights Installed.
"We installed the new lighting
system on Sixth street at a cost of
$1 1,500; constructed 18,50(1 square
feet of concrete sidewalks front
ing city lots, and 7 5.000 square
feet fronting privately owned lots,
at a total cost of $12,200. thus pro
viding a long felt need for pedes
trians, and especially school chil
dren, to get to and from school

trails during the rainy season.
"We are informed by Postmaster
Warner that the city's sidewalk

months has enabled him to extend
the mall service to sections of the
city which could not otherwise
have been accomplished.

LEONA SENDS A MESSGE.
rtRS. FROST wrote at leuglli to
hor daughter Amelia, now liv
ing Id London, complaining bitterly
of Fanny's latest perfidy.
"Unless you could see (or your
self." tbe letter said, "you would
not believe bow four days witb that
woman have changed our darling,
gentle little Sheila. The child
seems under a spell sullen, defl
ant, utterly callous to appeals to her
natural affections. The most we
can get out of her is that she is
sorry she caused us so nuch heart
break and anilety but 'not sorry
site went to see her mother. Though
obviously impossible, Sheila insists
that tbe visit was entirely her own
Idea. Nor will she tell us how or
whore that creature (I cannot call
her Fanny) managed to get In touch
with her."
Ton days later Mrs. Frost wrote,
"I'm sorry my letter Is Into but
we're still bavlng a dreadful time
with Sheila. As she will not promise
not to run away again, wo do not
dare let her go any place alono
not even to school. Last. Thursday
ns David was preparing to make
his weekly call on Mary Morton,
Sheila said rudely, 'When you mar
ry Miss Mary you won't want me,
bo why can't I go live witb my
mother?"
"David, like a niuny, meekly tele
phoned Mary be could not see her
that evening and has not been near
hor since. He is of course playing
straight into that woman's hands,
as Sheila would never have thought
of such a thing herself."
The day before Christmas Mrs.
Frost took her granddaughter with
her to the bank, where she drew
out a number of gold pieces as pres
ents for the servants. At tho tell
er's window they met Sheila's bach
elor cousin, Albert Brownbeck, en
gaged on tbe same errand. Albert
Imraedlate'y carried Sheila off to
select herself a gift, promising to
drive her home. Sheila cbose a
small red bank.
"Why, that Isn't much of a pres
ent," Cousin Albert protested gen
erously. Sheila bung ber bead.
"Well If you want to, you could
put something In it."
Cousin Albert was never more
than half bright; be slipped a $10
gold piece Into the bank. But that
night, while her father and grand
mother were busy decorating her
tree. Sheila locked her door ou the
outside, hid the key, crept down the
back stairs unnoticed, and caught
the midnight train for New York.
She was beaded off by telegraph
and brought home In the early
dawn.
"How could you?" Mrs. Frost
asked sadly. "On Christmas live!
Your poor father who has already
suffered so dreadfully! And now
you, his own little daughter, whom
he adores, to break bis heart!"
"I guess he doesn't care how
much ho breaks my heart or tny
mother's heart," Sheila half sobbed.
"For shamo!" Mrs. Frost drow
herself erect. "You have to know
some tlmo. You are almost twelve
years old. No matter how you blind
yourself you to know In your heart
how patient and good your father
Is how forgiving. But there Is one
sin that cannot be forgiven. Can
you honestly make yourself believe
that we would httve taken you away
from jour mother If It bad not been
ncceeary, If she had been a good
woman?"
Late the next afternoon Sheila
followed Lconn the cook up to her
room. Sheila scaled herself on the
dnor. hrr he:id a;aiut I.cona's
knee. They sat there quietly.

ain't ot no account that whatever
they do aren't worth doing."
Sheila puzzled over tills.
"Did my mother do that?" she
asked.
"No, honey. It never mattered
to her whether people was black or
white, rich or poor she treated 'em
all exactly alike."
"But Grandmother sold my
mother committed an unforgivable
sin."
"Your grandnin shouldn't ought
to have said that. I reckon when it
conies to what we've been talking
about, your mama was more done
against than doing." There was a
surprising warmth In Leona's tone.
She added with her usual mildness,
"your grandma's getting old and it
makes her klnda spiteful to be
crossed. You've crossed hor con
siderable lately. But your mama's
real sweet and good a Indy if 1
ever seen one. Don't you let uobody
make yon tbink different."
"But Grandmother said she was
bad a bad woman. And she must
have done something, or Daddy
wouldn't have sent her away. But
nobody will explain. Daddy won't,
and you won't, and my mother
won't. And I can't ask Mnrjorie
or any of the girls. They slop talk
ing and look so funny, when any
one says anything about mothers.
They feol so sorry for me . . ."
She threw herself in Leonn's
arms, racked with sobs. Leuna
smootiicd her hair, comforted her.,
as best she could. When It was
quite dark, and Sheila's sobs enme
at long intervals, Leona said softly:
"I've been going over In iny mind
how your Aunt Amelia used to come
up here when she were a iitllo girl.'
Klnda careless and happy-go-lucky.,
Amelia wore, but awtul tender-,
hearted. When she wore older sho
was always standing up for every
body she felt sorry for your mama
specially. She were awful fond of
your mama."
Sheila sat up and shook her hair
out ot her eyes.
"Leona, if 1 wrote to Aunt Amelia
would she tell me?"
"1 can't rightly say," answered
Leona cnutiously, "but If sho iiuh(
ed to tell you, she wouldn't pay no
attention it your grandma told her
she wasn't to. She never took your
grandma too serious, like your papa
and all the family do. If Amelia
felt your grandma were In thu
wrong she'd just as soon lay her
out as anybody. But I shouldn't
want you should say that 1 put you
up to writing her."
"I won't," Sheila promised has
tily. An embryo resolve, lung gcslnt
ing in Leona's heart nnd bruin, linnl
ly took shape and form.
"If you should happen to write
your Aunt Amelia," sho said slowly
and portentously, "you put this In,
exactly samo as I'm lolling you.
Your write, 'Leona says sho aren't
ono tor Interfering, but to toll you
you ought to know Mia' Fanny ain't
never been treated right.'"
"I'll write It down right away,
bctoro I forgot," Sheila promised.
In London. 10 days later, Amelia
found a letter from her mother at
the top of a heavy breakfast mail.
"Sheila's tried to run away
again wanted to spend Christinas
with Fanny," Amelia told hor hus
band. "They headed her off. hut
Mother's terribly upset and bitter.
Serves her right David too. I
don't care what Fanny did. It's an
outrage not to let her see her own
child occasionally."
She worked slowly through her
mall. At tbe bottom was a small
pink envelope addressed In a child
ish hand.
"Dear Aunt Amelia," eho read.
"Will you ploso toll mo what my
mother did? It's terribly Itnpor.
tent tor mo to know. Grandmother
says my mothor Is a bad woman.
Leona told me to tell you she aren't
one for Interfering but you ought
to know Miss Fanny ain't never
been trcetcd right. Daddy says
Leona thinks you are the smartest
person In the world, and 1 guess
maybe she knows. Your loving
niece, Sholla Frost, P. S. Lovo to
Uncle Clark."
Having no children of hor own,
Amelia's heart was especially ten
der for David's little daughter.
"Why. you're crying! What's the
matter?" demanded Clark. Amelia
threw h I in tho letter.
"Poor kid," said Clark. "Ibis In
a good deal of n pos'-r. What aro
you going lo write ber?"
"I'm not .going to write Iter any
thing." sullied Amelia. "I never
have been altogniher satisfied about
Fanny. Now that Leona has sent
lor me I in taking the flul boat tor
New York."
