ON LAST ROUND-UP On June 11, Sergeant Jennings D. wwman will mak bis last canvass ing trip here In the Interest of re cruiting for the regular army. He will be here for & period of three days. Due to the overs trength of the regular army and the heavy percent age of men re -en listing wlthtn a few days after discharge, the .army Is iorced to close some of its recruit ing offices. The southern Oregon of fices are to be closed this month. During the almost seven months of operation the office at Medford has given the service approximately 60 good local men. In the contact that the recruiting service tries to maintain after the men are enlisted, It Is found that many of these men are climbing upward, grasping the opportunities offered by the army. Por this coming trip the district recruiting officer at San Francisco has directed that, regardless of va cancies, and In order that no men who have been contemplating enlist ment in the regular army be disap pointed, assignments be given to lo cal men for both foreign service and domestic service.

President Coolldge. The former Medford boy is the nephew of Mrs. Harry Hart and Ralph Woodford of thla city. He will re turn to Los Angeles about Septem ber 35. It la a peculiar thing that the dem ocrats In congress have somewhat the same Inner resentment about Mr. Roosevelt as the republlcana have about their new party leader. Several senators were talking It over In the cloakroom the other day. One aald that only seven or eight out of the 60 democrats senators, were conscientiously, at heart, in favor of everything Mr. Roosevelt was doing, when someone asked the names of those seven or eight, no body could name one. The Smith deal was a real sacrt ftce for Byrnes, because the White House la so Indebted to him he could command South Carolina patronage If he wanted to. Administration forcea are pointing out that if Mr. Roosevelt had passed out all the patrcnage at the atart he would have nothing left now for auch thlnga aa the Smith case. Most of the membera of the radio commission will be appointed to the new communlcatlona commission. The steel and automobile people have learned to speak Oeneral John son's language. Lately they have called mediation "the bunk," termed Johnson himself "a big bag of wind," described the auto settlement as "a dead cat which Johnson hung around Mr. Roosevelt's neck" and invited Johnson to "scorch the aeat of his pants on a blast furnace for at.48 a week." Ernest Rostel, whose fluent type writer has been drawing enticing word plcturea of the Jubilee celebra tion for the past two months, will leave this week to resume his duties as publicity writer wlih the Crater Lake park aervlce. In undertaking an attraction such as the Diamond Jubilee, It Is neces sary, almost from the inception, to secure widespread publicity and con tinue carrying the story of the vari ous featurea and phasea right up to the last day. Rostel, who received his early training In writing as a member of the Mall Tribunes newa ataff, has developed an almost un canny knowledge of what aort of stories newspaper editors may be pre vailed upon to use. Through etorles written by Rostel, and sent to various newspaper syndl catea, and magazines throughout the coaat and by furnishing plcturea of pioneer buildings and other scenes in this locality, the desire to attend the celebration was kindled up and down the Pacific coast. It waa an outstand ing piece of publicity work and could not have been accomplished without the ability and training which Mr, Rostel gave to the work.
