JUBILEE GAINING WIDE PUBLICITY IN COAST REGION Detslled plana for an energetic pub. licit? campaign throughout the length of the Paclllo coast and the nation were discussed yesterday afternoon at the headquarters of Oregon's Diamond Jubilee celebration headquarters In the Sparta building.

A consistent publicity program carried on for weeks, with the co operation of all resident of southern Oregon, has resulted In wldespreaa advertising for this section through the mediums of newspapers, radio, posters, window cards, letter inserts and programs.

All day yesterday milling throngs of two or three crowded against the front of the building studying the photos and trying to pick out a fa miliar face. Many of the most ar dent spectators were bewildered Oleemen' endeavoring vainly to recon cile the handsome portalts with the mugs so well known to themselves. Various comments were heard aa one listened to the reactions of the on lookers. One cynlo said that In hla opinion the exhibit should be down In the Sparta building. The cruel part about that crack le that the Bparta building haa been oonverted Into a museum wherein are gathered the pioneer relics and antiques. Three runaways, two fist fights and a esse of hysterics hss been the toll of the showing to date, and It la feared by the city authorltlea that the hour of the display will have to be curtailed. However, con slderabl Interest in the coming con cert has been aroused, for many peo ple viewing the window doubt that there are so many white shirts and collars In the vaney and Intend to purchase tickets simply to satiety their curiosity.

To the Editor: While I have not noticed many re quests from your readers for In formation concerning the combatting of many garden pests, I do not feel that such a request would be out of place, and I believe that you will be doing many of your readers a service If you can and will print a sure-fire remedy for squssh bugs. Last yasr I tried out several of the common sprays, and was then advised by one merchant to use Cynogas, which I did several times, and I succeeded In raising several million aquash bugs on a dozen hills (and In squashes.) Thanking you for any assistance In my hour of trouble. - M. T. BURNS. Office Ashland Chief ot Police. Ed Note: The county agent'a of fice informs us the only sure cure for squash bugs Is to first catch the bug and then hit It on the head with a brick. Sorryl And From California! To the Editor: I was delighted to read In the San Francisco papers yesterday that you had been awarded the Pulitzer prize for outstanding editorials last year. I read those editorials and felt a de gree of personal pride In them at the time because I recognized their qusllty snd regsrded you aa an old friend. I really felt that they were masterpieces at the time, but perhaps felt that some of my enthusiasm might be Inspired by "old-home-town" loyalties. Now with national recognition I have a higher regard for my own good judgment and the real urge to tell you that 1Pulltzer knows how to pick them. WM. H. CRAWFORD, Director Industrlsl Development, San Francisco Chamber ot Commerce. Favors Sales Tax. To ths Editor: I think It Is about time for my splurge on the coming election. In fact. I am going to make two ot them; and the first one Is on the sales tax. A great deal haa been ssld on both sides and practically all phases ot It has been covered, but the thing that gets me Is that so many lies are circu lated and believed about It. I think the sales tax bill Is the simplest worded and plainest bill that could possibly be and anyone ought to be able to understand it. Aa I am able to size It up, those for and against this bill are about as follows: Those who own . roperty and are facing the terrible tax problem are tor it, and those who own no property and are not direct tax payers are against It because they do not want to ahoulder any part of the burden, but are per fectly willing to take their share ot the benefits and let the property owner pay for It. Now I am going to tell you fellowa one thing: . The property owners are getting Just about fed up on this Idea of holding the sack any longer, every year some more new Items are sdded to the tax budgets and most of them are things that the property owner does not want. They are put there by Irresponsible non-taxpsyera and we have to foot the bill. The tax burden haa become so great e no chances ter this- late j u m "Always look fc shield of acceptance American Medical Associ atiott."

Short By One Year To the Editor: Your Issue of Msy 4 presents a picture of the well known C. C. Beek man bank brick building, built In Jacksonville, Oregon Territory, In 1864. clslmjng that It waa the first brick structure In Oregon that had been In constant use up to the pres ent time. Pardon me tor saying that Is an erro, because there Is a brick build ing In Portland which was built by William S. Ladd esrly In 1853, a one story structure, with heavy Iron doors, and occupied by a store. The announcement was made In a paper called The Oregonian In the follow ing words: "Mr. Ladd haa completed his new fire-proof brick store on Front street snd moved back to hla old atand. Mr. Ladd Is one of the go-ahead boys and la bound to succeed. Industry, close attention to business snd be ta g a clever fellow withal, have made him a boat of friends." That building Is on the west side of Front street, between Wsshlngton and Stark streets, and has been In constant use from date of construc tion up to the present time. Some years later Mr. Ladd added a second and third story; and In May, 1869, be organized the Ladd Is Til ton bank, In the second story, which csme to be widely known In later years. OEOROE H.

As a matter of fact reconstruction was impossible, in spite of the crew assigned the job. But sad to relate, a lot of conscientious wives are assuming a task almost as difficult with "bargain counter" coffee. Oh, how hard they work trying to boil, drip or perk a good rich-flavored cup out of that brand that cost them a few cents less! If they only knew how many wonderful cups of coffee they could get from a pound of Hills Bros. Coffee. And. if they only realized that the way to judge the economy of coffee is by the way they drink it by the cup, not by the pound. C.wi i)4 HiUi S'ti. 4 .1 ! -
