MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE. IErFORl, OREGON. TUESDAY, JUNE 7, 1932. PAGE THREW. FIRST WEDDING AT I The step of the new Jackson county courthouse, nearing comple tion on Main and Oak dale atreets. were the acene laat evening of the marriage of Anna E. Rath, 53, of Oregon City, and Orion McDonald, 88, thla city the -first couple to he wed at the new structure, which If It upholds the reputation of 1U pre decessors, will see hundreds of couples enter the bonds of matrimony In the years to come. The marriage service, the third for bride and the third for groom, was read by Rev. Orlen R. Krlng. pastor of the Medford Spiritual Science church. As soon ae the 8 o'clock whistle blew, marking an end to the hurried pounding of hammers for the day, the wedding party assembled. The bride, an ordained minister in the Spiritual Science church In Ore gon City, where ahe has been teacher and leader for the past 30 years, was attired in white fur Jackette, beige afternoon dress and white accessories. She carried an arm bouquet of pink roses and wore about her throat a large gold cross and chain. Immediate friends of the couple stood with them upon the courthouse steps, while a number of workmen formed an audience in the court house yard, facing the city park. The plasterers In white uniforms .stood on the rafters above the entrance. Several photographs were taken during the service by one of the courthouse construction officials, and later aa the party progressed to the street to be whisked away in a wait ing auto. Both Mr. and Mrs. McDonald are well known in this city through their associations with church work. The bride, the daughter of Thos. J. Parish of Oregon City, has been visiting here for the past three weeks. Mr. McDonald, retired lumberman. Is the eon of Angus McDonald of this city, where he has made his home for many years. They will make their future home In Medford and Oregon City. They plan to leave soon for the latter place. Wet conditions In the timber, and delay of congress in making appro priation)! for forest service work, are delaying seasonal operations. The appropriation, totalling between $35, 000 and $40,000 will be passed and approved ere the august body ad journs, in the , near future. The funds will be expended in mainten ance of the service, trails, and forest fire fighting. No lookouts have been detailed to posts, owing to the fact that the fire danger Is nil, owing to the rain and snow soaked condition of the forests. It Is estimated that six weeks of .sun Bhlne will be needed to thoroughly dry out the woods. In the meantime, weeds and other foliage Is growing fast. Last year at this time, all look out stations were manned, and the fire danger was real. Under a new regulation, the forest service this year will pay 20 cents an hour Instead of 30 cents as last year. A state law this year provides that when a forest fire occurs on private owned land, half the cost of fighting It be assessed on the taxes of the TUMY'S 67 BEST FOR QUALIFYING Earl Tumy forged to the fore yes terday In the qualifying play for the president's cup at the Rogue Valley Golf club by turning in a card which read 67 net.

LEGAL LIQUOR TO CURBJJSE, CRIME (Continued "irom rage One.) time ought to be given before repeal became effective to permit the states to insure control of the liquor traf fic. He declared, however, that he did not favor coupling repeal with an alternate measure offered as a substitute because it would be diffi cult for people to agree and "un likely that any one method will fit the entire nation." Mrs. Ella A. Boole, president of the W.C.T.U., commenting on the letter, asuea: "Will people who have re fused to obey the prohibition law agree to obey the restrictions that must of necessity be a part of any otner lawf ' Bishop James Cannon, Jr., of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, said the amendment had been suc cessful and that "certainly we do not propose to exchange what we have far better than the legalized trarnc ana saloon of the old days for something that Is unformulated and untried." Dr. D. Leigh Colvln, chairman of the Prohibition National committee, declaring Rockefeller made "wild statement," said government figures show that "the source of liquor sup-1 ply Is not over 34 per cent what it was before" and that crime has de creased. Dr. Butler, on the other hand, hail ed Mr. Rockefeller's support and astd it would have "a very great influ ence In the public opinion of the country," and Mrs. Charles H. Sabin, chairman of the Women's Organiza tion for National Prohibition Reform, praised the oil man for his "courage." Mr. Rockefeller was credited with a quiet, but effective part in the movement which culminated In adoption of the proh'bltion amend ment. Though he was never a spec tacular propagandist for prohibition, the dry forces, and particularly the Antt-Saloon league, regarded htm as one of their greatest pillars. There appears to be no record of any contributions by him to the Antl Saloon league after 192S. It was at about that time that he broke with the organization as result of irregu larities exposed in the prosecution and conviction of William H. Ander son, New York state superintendent. Anderson served & prison term In 1924 for third degree forgery and at that time Mr. Rockefeller demanded a full Inquiry into the affairs of the league and in this connection he came to the support of Raymond D. Posdick, who waa In controversy with A.nderson. lilt. LOUISE: I check up on my soaps these days see this list? NELL: My, it looks long what is it?

FIND JAY'S NEST CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK. June 7. (Spl) The first nest of the 'camp robber" or Oregon Jay on rec ord was accidentally found In Crater Lake national park this week, well .hidden In the boughs of a hemlock tree. Although the birds are num erous In the park, efforts In the past to locate nests for study pur poses have been unavailing due to the extreme caution the birds exer cise In their location. So rarely are they found that an eastern ornithological society has posted an award of $100 for the lo cation of such nest. Men engaged In pine beetle control work were responsible for the discovery while working between Anna Springs rang er station and the Medford park en trance. The neBt was In a heavily limbed hemlock tree approximately eight feet above the ground and was so thoroughly hidden it would have never been found had Its location not been betrayed by the constant chirping of the mother bird. SALEM, June 7.
