Next month we will begin making the large poppies for the decoration of the graves of veterans of the World War and Civil War on Memorial day The Auxiliary also decorates the graves of members of the Auxiliary so It takes about five hundred pop ples or more to make wreaths or sprays for all the graves. The large popples are made and then waxed Just before they are used bo that they will withstand the weather. For thirteen years the American Legion Auxiliary has cooperated with the congress In a joint effort to solve the difficult and distressing post-war problem of federal relief on account of those who Incurred death or dis ability as a result of service in the armed forces during the World War. For the Congress this has been only one of many Important problems de manding solution, but for the Legion and Auxiliary It has been our pri mary interest. After every war there are problems to solve and there always will be. We have always endeavored to keep in mind the Interest of the Nation as well as that of the veter ans for we realize that the welfare of the veterans and the welfare of the nation afe ludlsaolubly bound to gether. The World War Veterans' Act of 1024 waa approved by President Cool ldge. It Is the most humane, en lightened and scientific document for veterans' relief ever devised by the heart and brain of man. It Is this Act that the National Economy Lea gue Is trying to undermine. They have Ignored completely the fact that disabled and helpless men must b3 cared for. And In pleading with Con gress to curtail expenditures on be half of these veterans they have ne glected to state that such action would Increase city, county and state expenses as these helpless men must be taken care of.

OPERAPiNAFORE IS OLD FAVORITE Gilbert and Sullivan are known to music lovers as the "deans" of light opera. One of the best operas for high school production ever written Is their H. M. S. Pinafore. Pinafore h as for 1 ts background England of 1878. It Is a genuine English product, humorous and delightful. The bub bling melody combined with lever lines go straight to the heart of the opera lover. It was originally pro duced In London and was played for 700 consecutive nights to enthusiastic crowds. Its fame and popularity soon spread throughout the world. In 1878 It was produced in America for the first time and In the years that followed, it spread throughout the United States. This opera has been especially popular as au amateur pro duction and thousands of high school casts have produced It during the past 20 years. Among the high school students taking part In the present Medford High school production of Pinafore are many whose parents, grandpar ents, sisters or other relatives have carried parts in the same oper in years past. Dorothy Burgess, piano accompanist, la proud of the fact that two grandmothers, two grand fathers, her father and mother, have at some time In the past carried lm porant parts In H.MS. Pinafore. Ralph Burgess is assisting very ma terially In this production of Pina fore by his suggestions concerning stage business which only a man with long experience with such product ions would be able to offer. The opera will be produced for the public on Friday evening, February 24th. A matinee performance for grade school and junior high school pupils only will be given Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock. No ad missions will be sold for adults or senior high school students for this performance. 4 E.F FUNERAL ON FRIDAY E.

SOTS 3 To the editor: In regards to this epidemic of rot ten politics, I want to state on Feb ruary 15th I appeared before the Honorable County Court of Jackson county, stating that I wanted to make a request of the court. Judge Fehl said "Go ahead." I wanted to make my statement, the lady stenog rapher asked my name I presume to take notes of what I said. I stated, knowing that I was within my rights as an American citizen, I wished to make a request of the court to stop the use of the assembly hall In the court house for seditious, Inflamma tory, Inciting remarks. Judge Fehl motioned the lady to stop taking notes, and he hollered at me "I wont hear it." I replied, "Walt a minute, you have not let me finish stating my request." He replied, "I won't hear It, you are a disturber, demanding me to stop their meetings." I replied, "Wait a minute, don't butt in, and beg of you to let me make my request, as you have not heard what I wish to say." He exclaimed, "I was told that you were down in the meetings, causing a disturbance." I answer ed "Whoever told you that was a falsifier," that waa not the word I used but I have to be careful and not use Texas words In Oregon on paper. "I want to state, Earl Fehl, that you are telling a falsehood, same as you made the remark In our tangling confab that 1 demanded of the court to stop those meetings." Thanks to Nealon for saying "Burton made a request and not a demartd." Mr. Fhel, why did you stop the stenographer, and not let the words I I ' 'Sp&S id ifiMi .

I wish It were in the Journal, so your friends could read It, and S wish I could have had a kodak and have taken your physical extortions so your friends could see your actions In the honorable court, lowering the dignity of the said court. Now Fehl, I call on you to swear out a warrant for my disturbance, and produce your Informer and as many more as you feel like. Thanks, Mr. Billings for asking me to remain. I believe I know what you wanted to do. You wanted to get the law presented to show that I was within my rights to make a request of the county .court. It was not alone me that riled the honorable county Judge In that wage case, when Deputy District At torney Nellson was called and tried to read the law on the question. After Judge Fhel, throwing his arms, "To hell with this, and damn that,'' them two can run the court, I'm not going to have nothing to do with It: Nellson replied, "I was called In to read the law." Mr. Nellson attempted to read the law, but he was stopped by the maniacal conduct of your honorable county Judge. Mr. Nellson stated "Codding has given an opinion back ed by the opinion of the attorney general." Judge Fehl exclaimed, "I would not believe anything George Codding says." Nellson' replied, "It was not a personal matter, he was called upon to read the law which I do not believe he ever had the chance." Mr. Billings, Mr. Nealon, I com mend you both for your patience, contending with the fermented brain of Ignorance. Oregon, burn up your law books, we have two master minds that will tell you what to do, they are the master minds of the "Oood Government Congress," Banks and Fehl. Do as they say, or suffer the con sequences. They are causing more contention In this county, than any one I know of. People of Jackson county, I come through the papers stating this so that you can under stand what officers have to put up with. Judge Fehl publishes a paper, he Southern These Merchants Give 100 Votes with Each $1.00 Cash Purchase or Paid always wants to make a grandstand play and let the public know of his actions in your court and your be half. Now get this, he was too cowardly to let the stenographer take the remarks that were made be tween him and myself. Oood peo ple, I want to call your attention to the Boloff case, Multnomah county, Oregon, without friends, only a mem ber of the Communist party, a poor man. Ignorant of the law, waa given two years In the "pen," contracted tuberculosis and died. Then the scoundrels who had caused his death through their seditious teachings, wanted to parade the streets with bis casket and let the path be strewn with flowers. Did this bring the poor unfortunate back? I'm trying to prt this before you4 Americans, he was only a member and was convicted. With half of the testimony that had been given to the people of Oregon was seditious remarks that has been placed before your eyes in these "good govern ment" meetings which are opened with a prayer and hell raised after wards. Take the advice of an old fool, and If you signed a Good Govern ment card and have not taken any leading part In these meetings, tear the card up for the syndicalism law Is far-reaching. My last words In this turmoil, I want to call your honorable county Judge'a attention, If his Highness can select three In telligent citizens to call upon me, that I am disturbing the peace of the good people of Jackson county, and publish their names, and they have not caught the disease of the epidemic, I will be on my way to Texas where I understand their language, where a few that do not follow a woman's dress and get be hind and raise hell with the pub lic. Fehl, I want to call your attention to your actions and language that you used before that lady, it would not be what you think In Texas. In my humble position to make a re quest to the county Judge, I'm afraid to appeal to the authorities to stop those meetings in any building that will allow the remarks which are un American.

Pardon me, I mention In con clusion I have written three of these letters and tore them up, trying to say something and not infringe upon the law, for you know an Individual, especially a por devil, has to be care ful what he says. You want to be long to an organization so you can parade around and mane a show. 1 don't believe Judge Norton, District Attorney Codding, Commissioner Nealon wilt be at the big meeting Saturday, but good people you see you have been nils-informed and mis-led again. But come, It is a big advertise ment, whether the actors are there or not as advertised. Paper has given out and I must quit. You go down an alley by a home, see any Inflammable material stacked against a home, a man with a match is near by. The match Is a good thing, lighting pipes, cigars, fires for cook ing and heating, it la innocent, but strike It and place It to the fuel In the alley, makes a flame and burns the house; later coming back, we see a pile of ashes, It was a good house to live In but not the ashes. It was Inflammatory, Inciting, seditious re marks that was taught to the poor degenerate that fired the shots at the president-elect, mayor and oth ers. It was not the degenerate, It was from the remarks that he had heard. If that teaching had been taken away from htm he would not have pulled the trigger of a gun to take the lives of thoso who have not harmed him. Oh what's the use, I want to state I hold no one responsible for my ac tions or words that I may say. I'm prompted by no one. If these art Ore and Bullion Purchased Lkmucd br Stat. .1 clUotvl.
