Following the court of awards all the Scouts rushed to the recreation hall to get out of the showers, and lunches were eaten there, followed by two strawberry Ice cream cones apiece! We were glad to have such a nice get-together with all the Scouts of town and it Just may be possible that we can have another such one some time before the sum mer Is over.

L. MncDonald, chairman of the publicity committee of the Medford chamber. The idea Involves a doner co-op eration between the three communi ties for the purpose of promoting tourist travel through the region and encouraging our visitors to remain longer in the southern Oregon re gion. According to the plan outlined at Klamath Falls, tourists will be, urged to visit the many recreational' attractions In southern Oregon, and to visit all three cities on a loop drive, Including Crater Lake national park. Heretofore there has been marked rivalry between Medford and Klam ath Falls, directed toward publicizing Crater Lake, and the fact that the visitor should make both Medford and Klamath Falls on the Crator Lake Itinerary was brought out at the meeting, to the mutual benefit of both cities. Statistic show that for each day a visiting automobile remains within a given territory ap proximately $10 Is left In that region, and it Is hoped, through the co-operative advertising idea, to Induce many to remain in southern Oregon for a longer period than at present.
