Day, th new county Judge wib given the oath of offloe yester day by County Clerk George Carter. Thl Important fact wu properly chronicled In the col u mm of thti paper. But a few moments later the county Judge wanted to give hta oath DLCk with Interest, for lnstesd of his picture appearing In the article, there appeared the equally pulchrltudlnous features of .the oath-giving county cleric, with the caption "Earl B. Day" beneath I ' As the two portraits above show, the art editor of the Mall Tribune has an alibi. The two men DO look alike. They both have well molded, strong and clean cut features, they both have plenty of hair, well brush ed back and up; they both have nice ears, straight noses, and firm, cloan shaven mouths. Both also have the approved habit of fearlessly looking the camera man straight In the eye. But all men are alike In this, no matter how good, or bad looking, they are, they bitterly resent being taken for ANYONE else, A masculine beauty contest committee would be hard put to decide between Day and Carter. lther of them could have Jobs In Hollywood as Oreek Oods. if County Clerk Geo. Carter. they were not serious minded public officials, with a hatred for the frivol ous life, but strange as It may seem the new county Judge was terribly sore to have his name under the por trait of George Carter, while George Carter waa fairly frothing at the mouth when bis facial ' lineaments were handed over to the new county Judge, County Clerk Carter wants to be county clerk and nothing else. Above all after six months In offloe he doesn't want to be mixed up with ANV MORE COUNTY JUDGES, plc torlally or otherwise. But the mischief was done. There was Carter marked Judge Day and Judge Day not appearing In the pic ture at all. And all this at the mo ment when a new deal and perfect harmony In county court circles had been formally announced! All this paper can do Is humbly apologize, express Its regret, and print boih pictures of the two county officials, properly classified, as above. Those with Immediate business at the court house are advised to cut these portraits out, with the proper captions, so aa to avoid embarrass ment, when they call at the county clerk's office, or seek the Judge at the county court. , Harvey L. Armes, Med ford district manager of the General Petroleum corporation, returned yesterday from Portland, where he attended two- day conference of the district man agers of tbe Oregon division of the company.
