TO BOOST FIESTA The Medford business section re sembled an old pioneer mining camp last night when nearly 300 quaintly garbed Yreka citizens literally took over Main street to advertise their 1033 Gold Rush Jubilee. Shortly after 8:30 p. m., a long caravan of California cars swept Into Medford escorted by the state traffic police. The occupants disembarked at the Hotel Medford and formed a long procession which, headed by the Yreka American Legion drum corps, paraded Main street to Riverside and returned to Oakdale. On the return trip the visitors paused at the Cham ber of Commerce where the drum corps serenaded President Bolger, Secretary Banwell .and other repre sentatives of the local chamber. Mr. Bolger responded with a few words of welcome and assured the Yreka group a large attendance of southern Oregon citizens for their celebration this week-end. Hundreds of Medford, cars lined the streets last night to see the pic turesque parade put on by the "Gold Miners" and "Gold Diggers," and local people were not disappointed. The pioneer costumes were unusually clever, depleting all walks of life in the "days of '51," when Yreka was known as "Thompson's Dry Dlggln's." There were prospectors, cowboys, gamblers, miners, confidence men, dance-hall girls, stately ladle's In full skirts and bustles, even a preacher and a friar were Included in the quaint procession. An old-time or chestra was much In evidence and furnished music for the "old-timers" when they put on a series of square dances at the Chamber of Commerce and the Hotel Medford. The par ade disbanded at Oakdale and the visitors left for Ashland to present a similar demonstration, leaving this city a quiet, orderly community in deed after an hour of wild yells, gun shots and other sounds of revelry typical of the days of long ago. Last night's parade was a very small sample of what local people may expect when they visit the Yreka Gold Rush next Saturday. The pioneer parade which takes place at 1:00 p. m., will be made up of old time entries of every kind and de scription, stage coaches, ox teams, covered wagons, pack trains, old fashioned vehicles of early vintage, bands of cowboys and Indians, beau tiful floats and other attractions too numerous to mention. In addition to the big parade there will be a children's parade at 9:00 a. m., Sat urday morning which promises to be a popular feature of the day's pro gram. It Is expected that over 500 Medford and. Rogue Valley people win attend the gold rush this weekend. OLD AGE PENSION APPLICANTS IS; WAIT NEW BLANKS Demands for application blanks for Old Age Pensions are made dally at the court house, but none will be distributed until a supply Is re ceived from the state board of con trol at Salem. The Salem bureau has advised local officials that the application blanks are now In course of preparation, and will be forwarded as soon as available. The law does not go Into effect until January 1 next, and to date in the neighborhood of 300 residents have announced their Intentions of applying. Jackson county, like all the other counties of the state, is handicap ped by lack of funds, for the opera atlon, and it Is probable that the special session of the legislature. when and If called, will make modi flcatlons sufficient to tide over the financial stringency. The old age pension law provides that the applicant be 70 years or more of age. a resident of the state for 15 years, and a resident of the county in which the application is made for two years. Property exemp tlon up to 93000 is allowed. The sum of 930 per month Is fixed as the highest amount. Any other Income is deducted. The monthly allowance will be based upon the needs of the applicant. If an appli cant has able-bodied children, able to contribute to the support of par ents, and do not, the law provides for it. The law Is stringent In re gard to qualifications, particularly insofar as length of residence, and needs are concerned. The law was passed by the last session of the legislature, as a means of systematically rendering aid to the worthy poor of the state, to abolish the poor farm, and Its ex pense, and to regulate more efficient ly charity and relief funds. Communications Story Changed. To the Editor: . In yesterday's report to the Mail Tribune, relative to the finding of the body of Clarence CUne, Del Norte county trapper, I was in error In stating that George Campbell made the actual discovery, where as a man by the name of Carr, volunteer mem ber of the searching party, was first to find the body. I gladly make this correction in deference to the request of Mr. Campbell. ALLEN O. HBSS. Jacksonville, Sept. 13, 1933. Harlocker Takes Place of Fennell In Gardner Drugs Charles 8.

In these days when a senator has to get Into a flst-flght to make page one. who remembers the time when most of the thunder In Washington emanated from senatorial throats, whether congress was in session or not?

Medford accepted the pupils and continued to educate them last year, when no money was forthcoming, but an nounced that they would not be car ried this year unless taxes were paid. While taxes have not been paid to furnish tuition to the Medford dis trict, the bus driver who transports the children from district 39 into this city, is under a two-year contract to haul the children to Medford, and under bonded agreement to keep the bus running. In view of the prob lematical situation, officials stated yesterday that Indications were the bus would be making the Journey without its load. Superintendent Adamant. Superintendent E. H. Hedrlck of the Medford schools, when interviewed today, stated that the Medford board was holding to Its first decision, and that the children would not be ac cepted at the local school buildings next Monday unless tuition Is paid. "Our position la exactly the same," he declared, pointing out that the Medford district cannot continue to carry the load, ' The whole situation Superintendent Bowman described as a sad example of the weakness of the existing school system, which makes It possible for a few taxpayers In one little district to Interfere with the education of worthy pupils. The present methods in Jackson county, he stated, are to blame. The county school law, which means a unit system, If in operation here, would, care for the problem and assure the children of district 30 an education, regardless of whether or not the taxpayers of that particular district paid their taxes. The situa tion would then be handled as & county problem, and the entire coun ty would bo behind plans for rem edying the abuse. Taxpayers Indifferent, The taxpayers for the most part, Superintendent Bowman stated, are not parents of school children, and In no position to suffer directly from their own failure to pay their taxes. The parents throughout the district are anxious to send their children to school, but a barb-wire fence, so to speak, separates them from edu cation, because of boundaries drawn under the school law now in opera tion here. Tn Klamath county.
