JESSE HOUCK IS
TAKEN BY DEATH
AT EARLY HOUR
This morning at 4:30 o'clock, At
hli home on OeJcdale avenue In this
city, Jesse Houck, one of southern
Oregon's foremost citizens, passed
over the Great Divide, Jesse, as tie
was familiarly called by his host of
friends and acquaintances, was born
i.t Crescent City, Cal-, June 0, 1864.
At the early age of 10 years he came
to Ashland, where he was actively
engaged In business until 1907, at
which time he moved to Medford,
where he has since resided.
Mr. Houck, together with F. H.
Carter and P. D. Carter, organized
the Medford Ice and Storage com
pany, and from the initiation of this
business up to the time of his death
Mr. Houck was a director and vice
president of this company. To his
keen business acumen, untiring, en
ergy and efforts must be ascribed
much of the enviable growth and
success of this company.
Jesse Houck was of the type of
staunch old pioneers of the west
whose footsteps are fast fading from
our community. He possessed a
strong and forceful character and his
energy found an outlet in devious
ways of community development. His
judgment never swerved from the
practical and dependable and his
whole life was characterized by In
tegrity and honor. His sacrifice and
loyalty to his friends had no bounds.
His whole makeup combined those
unselfish, sterling qualities that
united him closely to the hearts of
his friends and acquaintances and
commanded universal respect. He
won a warm corner in the hearts of
the people of southern Oregon.
Mr. Houck leaves to mourn his loss
his wife, Katherlne Houck, and his
wife's mother, Mrs. R. L. Blah, who
has made her home with him for
many years, and a brother. Dr. F. H.
Houck of Anaheim, Cal.. and a sister,
Grace N. Hasty of Los Angeles, Cal.
Mr. Houck was a member of the
Medford lodge of Elks and of the
Southern Oregon Pioneers.

To Stop A Cough
That Hangs On
Take a teaspoonful of Bronchu
Une Emulsion. Ne w mind the taste
nor the smell it's not half as bad
as you think It is going to be.
If your cough hasnt stopped, take
another dose in three or four hours.
Two doses Is usually enough to
kill the most stubborn, hang -on
cough. A bottle surely does It or you
get your money back.
Of course If you want a sweet,
sugary sedative Bronchullne Emulsion
Is not the cough medicine for you.
Bronchullne contains no hablt-form-lnff
drues of any kind.
But It certainly kills a cough! Ho

Hitler's entire time la still taken
up by rushing around the country
trying to squelch the revolt among
his followers. His American-born pub

During a meeting at Halle the dis

from his angry disciples. When tho

Two big banks and several smaller
ones In New York are aiding unem

on the heels of the department store

this type of economy and probably
will not do so.
One of the retrenching banks re
cently announced a pension plan for
retiring employees and waa given a

cheaper to retire a man on fractional

As the rest of the world talked of
technocracy," "deflation of curren
cy" and a lot of other new fangled
ldeaa with big names today, little
Bobbie Bills of this city turned back
the wheels of proRreos a notch or two
to get a "great big thrill" out of
trains.
The "Iron horse" was the biggest
thing In his five year old world this
morning as he boarded the Southern
Pacific for his first ride by rail. All
dressed up and with some place to
go "Central folnt" he appeared at
the station with his mother, Mrs. R.
J. Bills long before the train rolled In.
When It whistled Bobble all but
stampeded and waa the first to re
spond to "All aboard."

and UMd for washing hands of Ink
after fingerprints were taken and
to clean up the apparatus. Some of
th grand Jurors told the court they
thought thl was a lot of alcohol.
Alcohol had been destroyed without
order of the court, it was said. Fore
man Grieve said that the destroyer
"were honest about everything," and
hinted that It was due to lack of
knowledge of the rules. All seized
liquor must be destroyed only on or
der of the court.
The court also instructed th
grand jury to revise that portion of
Its partial report which recommend
eiA that the sheriff be empowered
to accept half payments for delin
quent taxes aa a means of aiding
the county finances. The court In
formed the grand Jury that this waa
a matter for the legislature and that
it could recommend to that body
for. changes in the state law. The
sheriff, the court explained, Is under
heavy bond for the collection of the
tax money and that the recommen
dation aa presented did not comply
with the law.
In connection with the grand Jury
lnvetlgatlon Into the alleged seized
liquor shortage many remembered
that during the last campaign It
was bnndle.i about the street and
county that there had been a "dis
appearance and at the time It wai
regarded as Just another ' campaign

TODAY the makers of Vicks Vapo
Rub present a new antiseptic . .
Vicks Voratont Antiseptic. No extrav
agant claims are made for it. It is
simply the best oral antiseptic Vicks
Chemists could produce. And they
were aided by the scientific experts
of our 16 allied organizations ... in
America, in England, and in Germany.
They examined the whole field of
oral antiseptics. Some they fouud were
too weak... a few were far too strong
for regular use in the mouth . . . most
were very good ... but all were much
too expensive . . . especially for 1933.
Effective . . . and Safe
So they produced a balanced
antiseptic ... mild enough
to be used daily without
risk to delicate membrane
...strong enough to do everything an
oral antiseptic can and should do. You
can use it in your customary way.
And Vicks Antiseptic has this addi
tional unique advantage . . . Born in a
depression year, it is priced accord
ingly. Large 10-oz. bottle ... a usual
731 value . . . only 35
