A Delicious Tuna Cocktail
What the Girl
Scouts Are Doing
By Mn. W. J. WHUon.
If you hear a group of girls chat
tering about Blushing Bunny, Hop
ping John or th Hawaiian Islands,
when they are planning an out-of-doors
meal, do not be unduly alarm
ed. They are perfectly sane and are
very probably a troop of Olrl Scouts
discussing some of the new recipes
which are recommended by national
Olrl Scout headquarters In the new
spring pamphlets on day hikes and
day camping. Many exciting new
games to be played on hikes and
In camps have also been suggested
by the program division of the na
tional organisation.
If the cooks for the day have
planned to have Hopping John for
lunch, they will use two cups ol
cow peas, three cups of water In
which the peas were cooked, one cup
of uncooked rice and three table
spoons of bacon drippings, add salt
to taste. They will boll the peas
until they are tender, add the rice
and bacon drippings, and the re
quired amount of water to steam
the rice. When this has cooked over
alow fire for one hour, there will
be food a-plenty for six hungry
hikers.
To the Initiated, Blushing Bunny
means one tablespoonful of butter,
the same amount of flour, one can
of tomato soup, one-half cup of
diced American cheese and either
crackers or bread. Give a Olrl Scout
cook these Ingredients and she will
melt the butter, blend it with the
flour and add the soup. When this
mixture Is thoroughly heated she
will add the cheese. The result Is
poured over either crackers or bread
and presto the Blushing Bunny
la ready for bts brief moment In the
sun.
The Hawaiian Islands are of gas
tronomic, rather than geographical
Interest to the hungry Olrl Scout.
The recipe for this tasty tld-blt
calls for large slices of bread, but
tered and browned on each side in
a frying pan. They are served very
hot, with a slice of pineapple cover
ed, with a little Juice, on each slice
of bread, and topped with a bit of
red Jelly or a maraschino cherry.
Roadside crlbbage, which may be
played as well by two persons as by
thirty-two. Is guaranteed to make
the miles roll by on any hike. The
group of hikers decide what certain
things are to be looked for, naming
various birds, flowers, trees, rabbits,
bird or animal tracks. Each player
gathers 21 pebbles, seeds or nuts,
to be used as counters. Whenever
one of them sees one of the objects
named she calls "pegs" and throws
away a counter. The girl who first
"pegs" all of her counters wins the
game.

Medford Group Reports

More than one hundred members
from the 32 clubs over the state were

end for the state convention of Ore
gon Federation of Business & Pro
fessional Women's clubs. The Klam

national experience and vision to the ;
problems brought up for discussion.

ier. To the Southern Pacific, Medford
owes Its beginning and much of its
development. Few people realize the
vicissitudes which attend the build
ing of this railroad and Its early
history is very Interesting. In the
day, the man vm started the first
stage line from St. Joe. Mo., across
the plains and who originated the
pony express, commenced the con
struction of the Oregon and Cali
fornia railroad from Portland south
to the California line. About the
same time the California and Oregon
railroad commenced building north
ward through the southern state. One
road stopped at Roscburg and the
other at Redding and far a number
of years the old Concord coach drawn
by six horses connected the two term
inals of these roads. In 1881 work
was commenced again on the Oregon
and California road and by the Spring
of 1884 had reached Phoenix, Henry
Villard who had built the Northern
Pacific road and was backing the
Oregon and California, lost .his for
tune in Wall Street and another per
iod of Inaction followed.
Finally the Southern Pacific ac
quired title to the Oregon road un
der a nlnety-nlno year lease and be
gan the extension of the California
end of the road, completing it Dec.
17, 1887, and the drerfm of Ben Holla
day became a reality; from Maine to
Florida and from Florida to Portland
on the Columbia river atreiched the
bands of steel. Then it was that Dan
Cawlev drove the last coach of the
overland stage line across the Slskl
youa. In 1801 the Honeyman and De
Hart Company of Portland built a
railroad between Medford and Jack
sonville. January 1893 this road was
sold to O. H. Lead better and son, ot
Portland, who Jan. 20, leased It to
W. S. Barnum. It was known then
as the Jacksonville Short line and for
several years Barnum was himself the
engineer and was assisted In run
ning the one mixed train by his sons
William who was then fifteen, and
John who was two years younger.
The train stopped at a point Just out
side of Medford for fuel both going
and coming, and also often found it
necessary to stop while the youthful
conductor drove cattle off the tracks.
Two years later Barnum's lease ex
pired and was not renewed because
latter part of the sixties Ben Holla
he wished to engage In other busi
ness. The Medford-Jacksonvllle road
continued to operate under different
managers until March 10, 1900, W. 8. ,
Barnum bought this road which was
then known as the Rogue River Val
ley R. R. 'or a 13. 000 and for a number
of years '! had the distinction of
being the on.y railroad In the United
States whose owner, crew and offic
ers were all members of the same
family.
It has always been expected that
Medford 'a thl.d railroad would con
nect wlt,h this Jacksonville road and
as far back as 1893 we find that
Lead better planned to extend the
road he had ahortly before acquired.
But It waa not until 1904 that a
railroad survey was made in the pres
ent Butte Falls district and J. D. Ol
well. W. F. Enthrop and Emanuel
I King Incorporated as "The Butte
Falla Sugar Pine Co." bought two
thousand acres of timber.
December 15 of the same year 'The
Medford and Crater Lake Railroad
Co." was formed by seven prominent
men and officers elected as follows:
A. A. Davis, president, B. F. Adklns,
vice president. Dr. J. M. Keene, sec
retary, W. I. Vawter, treasurer, R. H.
Whitehead, manager. The other two
members of the company were B. H
Harris and W. F. Enthrop.
Inside of four months Medford citi
zens had subscribed $25,000 and con
tracts were let for building a railroad
from Medford to Butte Falla through
Eugle Point. The Fee Brothers of
Pennsylvania becamo Interested and
the work progressed so that June 27,
1007 the first train left Medford over
the new road and Eagle Point de
clared It a holiday.
The name had been changed to
"The Pacific and Eastern" and every
one believed that it would be but a
question of a few years before as the
new name Implied, the Pacific and
East would be connected by another
transcontinental, for It waa known
that the Great Northern waa Inter
ested. Then came a Wall Street crash
and by the latter part of 1907 the P.
5e E. was In the hands of a receiver.
It waa bought and sold several times
until 1924 when Mr. Olds sold all but
the extreme southern end to the
Owen Oregon Lumber Co. and It be
came a logging road connecting the
mill In Medford with the company's
vast" holdings beyond Butte Falla,
though It la still a standard guage
road.

Siskiyou Memorial Park
"The Park of Perpetual Care"
O HOW me the manner in which a nation or commun
lity cares for its dead, and I will measure with mathe
matical exactness the tender sympathies of its people,
their respect for the laws of the land and their loyalty to
high ideals." Gladstone.
"A cemetery, yet a lovely garden spot
Where naught of woe obtrudes its melancholy,
But tender lawn and peaceful, sun-flecked grot
Afford a balm that soothes and pleases wholly."
H
. ERE sorrow will find peace and contentment in the
verbant beauty of broad lawns, radiant beds of flowers,
beautiful towering trees and shrubbery, appropriate
architecture, that speak of life everlasting. Gone is the
proverbial graveyard that people shun. Gone are the
tottering tombstones, sunken graves and gnarled, ancient
trees, grown round about with weeds, a spectacle that, in
the language of Bruce Barton, "adds a final horror to the
grief of parting."
It is not simply the selection of a resting place. Its
arrangement and completion includes so many and im
portant considerations that it should be accorded a justly
important place in the plans of ordered life. Yet, once
fulfilled, it becomes a source of life-long peace.
To the furtherance of a plan bo human and so far-reaching in its
benefits,
Siskiyou Memorial Park Is Dedicated
