Newspaper Page TextPAGE FOUR MEDFORD M&TL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON", FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1933. GAINS ATTENTION; What trill Medfortttw drink, and haw when Christmas roll around? la tb question which baa evolved from several local eurloaltlea during th past week, while fava.1t recipes were being reported In the preas from the north and the south. And no connolaseur of fine drink ing (aa It waa done when) having axUen to answer the question, books were resorted to by some, anxious for the right dope: while their less thirsty brothers answered, "Just plain Med' ford water." And a more raucous tone contributed, "I like mountain moonshine." Tom and Jerry, a tradition In many homei before the advent of prohibl tlon, will undoubtedly return to t place of honor, where good liquor hu been obtained. Many people, however, an lncom plete survey wvaaled today, are an ticipating experimentation wun wines, which have been quite out of the pic ture for a number of year here, And the cookbook suggests on that subject that a single wine (If any) be served with the ordinary dinner. Claret may toe served throughout the meal. And & good champagne (if anyone can afford It) with the main course. Champagne should be served very cold and claret and Madeira without loe. Three or four wines are rec om mended for the very formal din ner, In addition to cocktails before and liqueurs with coffee afterward. Sherry Is served with soup, Clares wun the first course after fish, champagne with the main course, and a fine port or Burgundy with dessert (which aounda quite foreign and complicated to Just plain American, out west). Burgundy, port and sherry bottler, however, made their appearance on the shelved of local dispensaries some time ago, although the law prohibits their drinking on the premises where old. If the alcoholic content exceeds 14 per cent. 4- ....

SALES TAX GAINS F L E S State Police Sergeant James O'Brien wouldn't mind so much If someone would steal the laundry (he's sure he could catch the thief), but the Idea of putting It on the porch, talcing It away, then putting It back again, Just doeant' sppeal to his sleuthing. It seems the laundryman left package on the front porch at the O'Brien home, and rang the doorbell, Mrs. O'Brien, who was telephoning, went to the door, and upon seeing the laundry there, went back and fin lahed her conversation. Then when he went to bring the laundry In. It wasn't there. Immediately she telephoned the state police headquarters and Inform ed her husband that someone had stolen the laundry. "Panicked" that some tramp might be wearing his clean shirt, the sergeant ran from the office (so Captain Lee M. Bown said) to begin a thorough scouring of the area for the laundry. In' the e lapsed time, a neighbor lady called at the O'Brien homo, and informed Mrs. O'Brien the laundry waa on the porch. She explained how she had seen the laundryman leave the wrong package, and that he had gone to change It when Mrs. O'Brien came to the door to take It in. She again called the state police office to report the lost as found, but Sergeant O'Brien had not return ed. Upon his arrival at the station two hours later (the captain couldn't call him In because of the lack of radios) he was informed that only a couple of good policemen were neces sary to find the laundry. Sergeant O'Brien, It developed, had searched every suspicious character in the Jungles, both north and south of town, and on all the highways nearby. More evidence that the sales tax haa been a complete success In Cali fornia and has the support of the people of that state, of all classes, was brought to Medford today by Jack O. , Fowler, 34, af Vancouver avenue, who Is a local Vc payer and represents Bussman Wormner & com pany (S. de w.) In this section of the coast. Mr. Fowler Just completed an ex tended trip throughout northern Cali fornia and In dally contact with busi ness men made a special effort to secure opinions regarding the sales tax In that state, which has been In operation about six months. "Everyone Is for It," said he to a representative of The Mall Tribune today. "The prejudice which existed when It first passed has completely passed away. No one notices the tax now or complains. All are In favor of it They have cards showing the amounts of the tax on all purchases, and the people carry small change In their pockets. Meanwhile the tax promises to raise from 00 to 100 mil lions In two years. As a result the schools are all operating full time,, no one has to take warrants for pay, and the man who owns a little home 11 n els his tax bill has been materially reduced. As a resident of Medford and of this state, I certainly hope that the people of Oregon, In their own self interest, will .pass this school sales tax when It comes to a vote. In my Judgment It will help the average tax payers and general business In this state as nothing else will." Meteorological Report L December M, I8JS. Forecasts.

Sthelwyn B. Hoffmann's Semi-Annual Clearance Sale Now In progress FOR BIBLE CLASS Weekly Bible class had a most in structive lesson which covered the prophecies to Israel the ten tribes of the northern kingdom before the exile. Mrs. Warner gave the thoughts on Hoaea, who prophesied about 72S B. C. The purpose of his prophesy was to show God's yearning for Is real. The outline Is chapter 1 to 3 Unfaithfulness; chaptor 4 to 10 Decline of Israel; chapter 11 to 14 Hope of Israel. Mrs. Iverson gave the thoughts on Jonah, w.ho prophesied about 800 B. O. The purpose of Jonah Is to show Ood's unlimited power. Of all the prophets, Jonah stands out as the great missionary prophet.
