MEDFORD IAIL TRIBUXE, MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JULY 17, 1933. PAGE THREE NEW 'CAVE CITY' RISING ON SITE OLD MINE TOWN 5ur th old mining "dlgglns," irhlch aent echoing through the bills the voices of 3000 Chinamen, whose yellow hands speeded tbe flow 1 gold Into the now ghost town of Wal do, back In the early 50 s. a new town bu arisen In southern Oregon. It is known as Cave City the name ex pressing a definite departure from the historical background of the re gion to link the city Vltb nature's scenic contribution, rather than with her gold. Ignored In the naming are the stor ies of Captain Jack's last fight, and of "Susanne of Kerbyvllle," a figure known to all men, who travelled the road from Jacksonville to Crescent City, in the golden days. Then, men never lingered to till tbe soil they covered but to turn It over to fill their pockets with wealth, soon real ized and soon spent. But today, as then, the builders of the town are coming from California, and In such numbers they have in creased by 150 per cent the popula tion of Cave City during the past eight months, El wood Hussey, one of the residents, announced here yester day. A new post office has been granted the new town, fed by the Redwoods highway, which has opened up the heart of the Illinois valley. A beer garden and dance hall, arousing for the old times, memories of the boom days; have been erected and are In operation under the name of "The New Hippodrome," representing a 15000 construction. And1 streets, formerly roads, where wild hogs were shot by hunters six years ago. are now lined with tbe shops of the butcher, the baker and the druggist. Farm houses, neighboring the town, are arising In promising numbers on soil, where free water rights date back to 1854. The Easterley mine, at Waldo once the county seat of Josephine county. Is being operated today in continuation of Its 75 year record. Other mining properties are being worked and saw mills are turning. Swimming In the Illinois river, upon which the town is located. s a popular sport with msny people, and a temperature 10 degrees lower than that of Grants Pass, 32 miles away, is claimed by the new town. Tourists, visiting the Oregon Caves, come through the town In important numbers and continue to Waldo to visit the mines, where pipes and giants are In operation, and many men employed. The historical background of the country tlso Intrigues the tourists, who visit the old home sites and lis ten to stories the old timers tell at Christmas with the 3000 Chinamen in town, whiskey on the counter and gold rolling freely on the gambling table. T ' It's the oldest and the newest place In Oregon, the visitors say, - Society and Clubs Edited by Eoa Nealon Hamilton WILL BE WATCHED PORTLA3TO, July 17.

Just as a stunt, Mr. Neu has frequently flicked the aih off a friend's cigarette with fly at 35 feetl RIGHT A DAY'S SPORT Is mora enjoyable with plenty of Camela along, because you can smoke all you want and still be ready for more when ning comes! Camel's costlier tobaccos never get on your nerves ... never tire your taste! Camels are better for steady smoking. It Is more fun to know! Steady Smokers turn to Arthur J. Neu, champion fly-caster, says: ' "Dry-fly fishing is a delicate art that takes the best a man's got in steadiness of hand and eye. To win the championship in accuracy at casting a dry fly, I had to have healthy nerves. And yet I smoke steadily all I want to without disturbing my nerves. That's because I prefer CameIs. There is no ques tion but that they are milder. And their rich, inviting flavor seems to say, 'Have another.' " ; Turn to Camels. Like Mr. Neu you will find that Camels are milder.. .that their flavor suits your taste . . . that steady smoking never jangles your nerves. So begin today! ........ 3. - m 1 i ii frj IT IS MORE FUN TO KNOW Camels are made from finer, MORE EXPENSIVE tobaccos than any other popular brand. The more you smoke them, the more you'll like them. Costlier tobaccos do taste better. mJ;ftM:WolM7illl;ll:H;Vi
