HONOR MRS. FISKE,
Ulnnl. Maddern Flske puxd away
two months ego after a life devoted
equally to the stage and the hu
mane field. Thle week her prle
wilt be sting over the radio. In the
theatre, the preaa and wherever or
ganized gathering! are held. April
18 was Minnie Madder Flake Day
and April 17 to 23 1 be kind to ani
mals anniversary.
During that period in the same
of every humane society In the
United states and In the name of
Minnie Maddern Flske, pleas will be
Issued for a more kindly considera
tion of all animals for the ensuing
year.
6o outstanding were her efforts
to alleviate suffering among dumb
animals that she waa mode director
of the American Humane assocla
tlon. with which the Jackson County
Humane association Is affiliated.
Her first notable campaign was
In behalf of the cattle of the west
ern ranges. In her travels from
ooaat to coast she saw the range
horror at Its worst the carcasses
of cattla, sheep and horses mangled
beside the railroad tracks or bloated
from starvation. She Instituted re
forms that were effective.
The outcast dog and cat on the
street were her concern, Bhe turned
them over to local humane societies
or found homes for them. Bull
fighting was an obsession with her.
The mention of a suggested bull
fight brought her hurried protest
to newspapers, senators and con
gressmen. For many years In her later life,
Mrs. Flske was an indefatlguable
crusader against the use of the
steel-Jawed trap in the taking of
furs. She worked Incessantly to abol
ish the cruelties In trapping wild
life. So sincere wss she in her be
lief that unnecessary cruelty was
Inflicted In the trapping of furs,
he wore only Imitations when her
stage roles called for fur wraps.
s
, IS REP
. The Jackson County Humane soc
iety realltes from the numerous In
quiries made that the animal lovers
of Jackson county are very Inter
ested In the present condition of
Rough, the IHtle terrier who was so
eerlously burned by sulphuric acid a
few days ago.
Rough la stilt under the skillful
care of Dr. Horr at the Humane soc
iety shelter Just north of Medford.
Dr. Horr reports that although there
la still some doubt as to the little
dog's recovery he la doing nicely. His
wounds are slbwly healing and If his
physical health can be maintained
his complete recovery Is probable.
However even the highest degree of
medical skill cannot prevent the scars
which Rough will alwaya carry on his
little back aa a result of the burns.
As this la "Be Kind to Animals"
week It aeema appropriate to caution
everyone .again to remember that If
you or your neighbor has an animal
which la an annoyance to you It la
wiser to call and ask the Humane
oclety to take care of- the animal
end adjust the matter than to In
flict a thoughtless punishment which
Is unnecessarily cruel.

Medford leads Oregon In volume of
business done by retail furniture
stores, proportionate to population.
Eugene, Klamath Falls. Salem, Marsh
field. LaQrande and The Dalles come
next In order, and then comes Port
land, which In most llnea of retail
business leads the state lrj per capita
Eastern Oregon's rural population
buys mora through retail furniture
stores than does the rural popula
tion of western Oregon. In propor
tion to numbers. Willamette valley
fa -mers are the most backward In
the state In purchasing new fur
nishings for their homes.
In most of the cities where a large
retail furniture business Is done, ft
Is due to the enterprts of Individual
dealers. Some dealers have succeed
ed in making a community fashion
out of having fine furniture, Rapid
growth of a community also Is a
factor. The degree tu which com
munities buy furniture by mall or
from department stores has a pro
found effect on the volume of the
retail furniture dealers. This habit
Is highly developed In Portland and
probably la a major reason why the
retail furniture business In the me
tropolis is relatively low despite the
considerable volume of purchasing In
Portland furniture stores by people
living outside of Portland.
Figures as to oluma of business,
from which we r.ade foregoing de
ductions, are In preliminary estimates
by the U. S. eensue of distribution.

The thing I like most about Chester
fields ... is the neat way they're made.
It may sound fussy . . . probably does
. . . but I just can't bear to get little crumbs
of tobacco in my mouth.
"I never really enjoyed smoking until
I discovered Chesterfields. Perhaps you
have noticed how nicely they're filled.
Every one of them is rolled just right.
"And do you know ... the more I
smoke Chesterfields, the better I like
the taste. It's not raw . . . and it's not
over-sweet. It's just sweet enough so
that you never tire of it. I find Chester
fields are really milder, too!"
