PERL FUNERAL HOME JtnyztuUcuiA ncpifp ftp rrnikirv rnunMCD i JIXTH AT OAK LOCAL IMBIBERS TRY Saturday saw many mow bottles of liquor leave) the state liquor store for private channels, the total business rivalling that of tne stores first day of operation. Earl Foy, manager, stat ed this morning. Fifty-two permits were Issued nd business for the day totalled $407.20, of this amount $355.20 was represent ed In liquor sales. The sake; Japanese drink, which came in from Japan In a shipment last week. Is practically all gone. Mr. Foy stated, and the Japenese people of Medford haven't bought any of It yet. The drink, however, has proved exceptionally popular with other resi dents. While business- at the state owned liquor store has been very good, the feeling Is prevalent that the bootleg gers are atlH getting a share of the trade and every effort Is being made to shut down on this Illegal busi ness, which Is robbing the govern ment of the tax due and at the same time placing In circulation an Inferior grade of liquor. Officers over the last week-end are said to have apprehended several al leged violators and a stringent cam paign against them will be continued, DR. KEENE, NIFTY DRESSER IN 1887 Dr. J. M. Keene of this city, one of southern Oregon's best known citi zens, appeared in this week's Sunday Oregon tan's old time photographic sec tion along with three of his Portland pals; Gary Jacobs. Ivan Humason, the late Dr. George H. Strowbrldge. The photo was taken in 1887 when all the young men were studying In Phila delphia; Dr. Keene at the Philadel phia school of dentistry; Jacobs at the school of design; Humason at the school of pharmacy, and Dr. Strow brldge at the medical school. The cap tion on the picture is "Portland .Beau Brummels In the Plug Hats of 1887". Judging by the photograph Dr. Keene was not as handsome In ils twenties as he Is today, and a ranch hat and a blue shirt becomes him bet ter than a topper, and a double breasted overcoat. 1 TAKEN BY DEATH Caroline H.

The star Is Francis Ledorer, whose sensational success on London and New York atages led to a screen contract. The story deals with a native of Greenland who, falling In love with a photograph of a London society girl, leaves his native wife, goes to London and tries to adapt himself to the ways of the civilized world. His struggle to understand the new world he has chosen, and his strange romance with Ellssa Landi, the soc iety girl, form the basis of the plot. Rogers Pleases in "David Harum" No ordinary Will Rogers picture is "David Harum." now at the Crater ian theatre. Tt Is grand screen mer chandise, carrying values in every phase thnt makes it unusual enter tainment, a homey, humorous aud-lence-plcaser which was definitely established by the applause which greeted each final fadeout by yes terday's audiences. "David Harum" Is Will Rogers at his best. It seems as though the columnist-comedian's enthusiasm for his role had an Inspiring effect on the supporting cast, as topnotch per-, formances. reflecting the real spirit of the "David Harum" story, are contributed all the way down the line. Opening In tl nineties, at a time when business conditions were sim ilar to the present, Harum's ad lib philosophical analogies create an up-to-date Impression. Then, as the rural New England story unfolds, the aud ience has a close understanding of what is happening. Hnrv.nVs slick "hoss trades" with the deacon; his hardscrabble small town banking practices: his home life with his sis ter Polly, are all lively. There Is an exciting punch to the trotting horse race won by Harum's nag as the entire count t fair at tendance sings "Down Went Mc Ginty" and "Ta-ra-boom-de-ay." Then a surprise climax that Is a gale of laughter. SALEM, March 19.
