Like an actress who bad forgot ten her part, Santa disguised her silence with radiant smiling. Dicky, Quick to sens her danger, played the gracious host, toasting Cllre's success and keeping the ball et conversation rolling. At tb theater Santa's own drama eclipsed the drama behind the foot lights. The saying about sleeping dogs applies to divorced husbands. CUvo was probably Quite convinced that she'd stirred up Dicky because sh still harbored a weakness for him. But were that the case, why had he accepted Dicky's offer to elebrate?

In ft statement issued after ft meeting of the Joint congressional committee which has been studying veterans legislation, was fixed for December 1, Rankin, chairman of the bouse veteiana committee, said he reserved "the right to review" any measures proposed by the Joint committee, and added!

"I found It educational." "Seemed silly to me. I was bored." "Do you object It I smoke?" Sh glanced up. "You always do o why the po liteness?" He sank Into a chair from which he could gain a full view of her. "What kind of an evening would you hay preferred?" W two, together." Sh drifted to her feet "Help m with my frock." While he eased and Jerked, ber voice pursued blm from beneath the flounces. "Last night I had an awful Job with my frock. Nearly called you. Pride prevented." Sh "merged dimmer than ever, dimpled, childish hopeful. Already he'd turned away, leaving her Inef fectual as a sawdust doll. Addressing his back, sh re proached him, "You weren't very at tentive. I mean befor Dicky, He might have thought well, almost anything." "My dear girl, what's your Idea ot being attentive? Surely you didn't expect m to pared my fondness?

Dally Star. Mr. O&tes Is a brother of C K. dates, and William Gates of this city. Of fttate-Wlde Scope A committee will shortly be ap pointed to handle the celebration Itself, and altho definite plans have not yet been completed regarding this, it has been proposed however to rent the Armory during the week and have as many Oregon counties as possible put in displays showing the advancement which has been made In their particular localities over a 75-year period. It la also proposed that the center of the Armory shall be given over to a huge Home pro ducts exhibit. In this regard, every manufacturer In the state will be asked to cooperate. A program is also being arranged for the Retail Merchants of the city, whereby store windows will exhibit relics of 70 years ago, and Home pro ducts displays will be set up In the empty stores of the city. The convention committee of the Medford Chamber of Commerce has already started an active campaign to secure conventions for Medford for the time of the celebration. Bolger Endorses ' William S. Bolger, president of the Chamber of Commerce, when Inter viewed yesterday, stated he believed that from a standpoint of publicity, An Interrupted Seach I MM! WOK HEARD OP? the plan of the committee Is one ot the most comprehensive which has come to his notice for many years. He further remarked, I believe the celebration Is one which should re ceive the whole-hearted cooperation of everyone In Jackson county, es pecially, and we will certainly need this cooperation In order to make the affair a 100 per cent success. It seems to me that this will be a gold en opportunity for hotels, retail stores, and business houses, general ly, to get behind a plar- which has as Its primary objective the bringing of a large number of visitors to our city. I believe we can capitalize on the face that we are the (tateway to Cra ter Lake, and if the publicity, com mittee carries out the scheme In Its entirety, I feel satisfied that Med ford will benefit tremendously as a result. Committees At Work Mr. Bolger will very soon appoint a number of committees to handle the vast amount of work necessary for such an enterprise. The board of directors of the Cham ber of Commerce unanimously en dorsed the Idea, which i' was pointed out !n a recent meeting, should bring about the desirable publicity results. Members of the chambers' publi city committee, under whose direc tion the publicity plans have been prepared are: 0. L. MacDonald, chair man, W. A. Gates, director, H. L. Bromley, C. T. Tengwald, J.

The widows pension fund was cut $2, 000, and the salaries and supplies at the poor farm cut about $500. This amount was applied to the fund for indigents not in the poor farm, and to hospitalization for In digents. The elementary school was placed at $60,000, the same as last year. The county fair fund was also reduced by eliminating all Items save maintenance and cutting the salary of the caretaker. Heavy slashes were also made In supplies for all offices. No fund was allowed for elections, which this year amounted to $8000. 'if there are any elections the coming year, to save the taxpayers money, It will be a task to find money for the expenses.
