According to the report, those who saw the dis plays and layout of the exhibit were enthusiastic In their estimates of the advertising value of the affair, The Southern Oregod display oc cupied an entire end of the Hotel Benson lobby, with a large picture of Crater Lake, and smaller colored pho tographs of Lake o' the Woods, Dia mond Lake, Llthla Park. Rogue River, and other scenic resorts filling the entire end wall. A sign Inviting Le glonnalrcs ( to atop in the southern Oregon recreational area on their way home was displayed with the pic tures. In front of the picture display was a long table, upon which were exhibited Medford pears, Ashland peaches', and Del Rogue tomato Juice, samples of which were dis tributed to the thousands of visi tors who visited the exhibit.

Bands and drum corps from the various eastern states serenaded the headquarters, and were given samples of the fruit, which received a great deal of favorable comment. Those In charge of the exhibit were surprised at the fact that great majority of the easterners who visited the booth were unfamiliar with tomato Juice as a drink, and a vast majority of those who there tasted It for the first- time were completely "sold," asking where it might ' be obtained, where made. ' brand, and numerous other questions. The peaches and pears which were given away made a distinct hit with the visitors, particularly those from the middle west, and it la certain tthat many of them will ask for Medford pears and Ashland peaches In the future. The material for the exhibit was carried to Portland through the courtesy of the Consolidated Truck . Lines, and during the days of the convention, the canned tomato Juice was kept in a refrigerator furnished by the Fobes Supply company of Portland, and was served sparking cold, It was estimated at the close or the convention that In excess or 10,000 persons visited the Jackson County Open House, and all were given copies of Ashland and Med ford publicity material.

Arrangements for the display and distribution of the products were made Jointly by the Medford and Ashland Chambers of Commerce, and Jackson county was the only county In Oregon staging this kind of an event at the convention, which. In Itself, brought considerable fav orable publicity, according to Med ford delegates. O. M.

"Each traveler has a girl guard,' he said, "and one day we were on a street car, which stopped at corner where a crowd of nearly hundred was congregated. I thought It must be a wreck, but the guard said they all planned to get on the car. 'After the car had stopped at about three such corners, the peo ple were standing on each others heads, It was so Jammed. I soon found myself crowded up against large Russian matron, with an oozy fish unwrapped, under one arm, and child on the other," the lecturer related. "In the crush she dropped the fish In my lap and It was an oozy fish. I said 'Madame, your fish.' She didn't understand the words, but saw the gestures. She took the fish, and handed me the child.
