PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBTJNT:. MEDFORD. OREGOX, TUESDAY. JULY 10, 1931 DEAD INDIAN HAS AS CAMPING SHE Bt Bernice Kunrman Many Items have appeared In th Tribune about different summer re aorta and vacation epots in southern Orsfron. but none has been written re esntly In appreciation of one of the oldest and beat known of them all. For over 60 year the pioneers of this valley and their descendant have been traveling the road to Dead Indian Soda Springs, and the large crowd which spent the fourth on the beautiful old camp ground showed that this U an Increasingly favorite apot. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Tyrrell (both of whom are children of pioneer parents) have purchased the camp ground and have a concession to It from the gov ernment, Just as similar concessions have been obtained by others at Lake of the Woods, Diamond lake and many other placea have been secured. At great expense to themselves the Tyrrells have made outstanding Im provements for the comfort and con venience of the public, among which era running water piped throughout the camp ground, the installation of sanitary toilet, providing large tables with two benches and a most practical little cast topped cook stove (for which plenty of split wood la sup plied) at each camping spot and In the space allotted for picnicking; clearing away underbrush and debris, and placing garbage cans and dig ging a hugo pit for garbage disposal. To reimburse themselves for all this expense a email fee for each oar of picnickers or campers la charged, and the fact that people appreciate theae conveniences was shown by the num ber who took advantage of them on the fourth. Fifty cars were registered In the pay camp ground and about 36 more cars were parked In the lovely free camp Just below, so that close to 375 people spent the day at Dead Indlsn. Of course, the wonderful soda spring, which la located about one- j half mile from the main camp, la; one of the chief attractions and the , trail was lined all day long with peo- I pie going and coming bearing lemons I GOLD CARGO NEARS RECOVERY IN ALASKA WATERS : I ' ! Y ' 7 t 7 mmm Salvage vessels are shown over the 8. S. Islander, wrecked 90 years ago near Juneau, Alaska, with a number of prospectors and their gold aboard. It Is believed the vessel contains a fortune although the amount Is Indefinite. The two hulks are anchored above the wreck which has been moved by tidal action from 300 feet of water to less than 60 feet (Associated Press Photo) and augar on their way up and full of soda water coming back! There couldn't have been a happier, more orderly crowd of people anywhere in Jackson county on the nation's birtn- dsy this year. The latest and largest improvement Is the fine 60x30 cement swimming tank which la located in a picturesque outdoor ampltheater Just across Dead Indian creek from the main grounds. The pool ts so new. In fact, that -the water had Just been turned Into It the day before the fourth and hadn't had a chance to warm In the sun, so that the many bathers found their swim a most Invigorating sport. From now on the clean, clear water will be warm and very enjoyable. Dozens of people complimented th Tyrrells very highly on this splendid addition to their equipment for their place can now be termed a plsasure resort, whereas It has previously been sought chiefly for Its healthful and restful qualities. All these factors were considered by the girl scout committee when they decided to buy the beautiful, permanent alto for the girl scout camp, which la located about a quar ter mile up Little Butte creek from the concession. The drinking water Is pure and cold; the objectives for hikes In every direction ere Interest ing and numerous; there Is an Inex haustible supply of nature study ma terial from the most delicate of or chids to the grand old fire and plnea, and besides this the fishing Is good. Practically every man and woman, and even boys and girl who fished for any length of time brought In good sized strings of fish, the best bslt being grasshoppers and bar nacles. For the Information of those who haven t tente or do not desire to "camp out," It might be well to add that cottages (with good beds and stoves) are available and meals can ; be had; also there la a little store where supplies can be purchased. You will be courteously welcomed at any time at Dead Indian and every thing possible for your comfort and pleasure will be cheerfully done. We can assure you that a vacation spent up there In that Invigorating mountain air will be a profitable and happy one. JACKSONVILLE H. E.

Under the system devised by the southern Oregon bankers, merchants are to be allowed checka In propor tlo nto their balance In the bank. Folders were distributed explaining the costs aa follows: "On all accounts showing normal activity In deposits, out-of-town checks, etc., the depositor will be prlr. Ueged to Issue on free check, or other 'debit, for each 10 of average bal ance maintained In his account dur ing the month; all other checks, etc to be charged for at the rate of 8 cents per Item. "Should the depositor's balance W0. below $50 during any current month. he will be privileged to issue 10 free checks, but It will be necessary for the bank to apply a service charge of 50 cents for cost of maintaining the account. 'Accounts showing unusual activity In the depositing or cashing of checks, etc., especially In the matter of out- of - town checks, more commonly known as 'Float,' which are collected at a considerable expense to the bank, will be subject to a special analysis. Should the analysis Indicate the account la being carried by the bank at a loss, the bank must be reimbursed accordingly for the actual loss sustained." Service Fees Slated. For out-of-town checka to a non- customer, the banks will charge a service -fee for cashing them. The rate will be five cents for checks up to 925, ten cents up to 950. and 30 cents from (50 to 9100, with a flat rate of 20 cents per hundred thereafter. The analysis used by the banks. Mr. Harder explained. Is to take the average dally ledger balance, deduct 15 per cent reserve, figure the Inter est at a rate of 5 per cent, and from this latter amount the charges for check transactions are deducted.

Several Illustrations were read by Mr. Harder, who explained each point. He said the banks were also making a charge of 30 cents for each N. S. P. check written by the cus tomer. Loan Interest Cut. "The interest rate Is now too high at the present for loans," Mr. Harder said, and announced that the First National bank had reduced lta Inter est rate to as low as A per cent on loans with sufficient margin to pro tect the bank. Merchant and busi ness loans based on the financial statement will be 7 per cent, and other loans with sn Insufficient mar gin will still be figured at 8 per cent. "We will reduce our Income and pass It on to the man who has been patronizing us," he stated, Mr. Harder said no extra charge was being made on public works checks, as the government had asked the bsnka to cash them free of charge. Other government checks, however. will be cashed on the same basis as others. ABUSING FLOCK PORTLAND, Ore.. July 10 (UP) Five children of Mrs. Bertha Klersey. ranging from a babe In arms to seven-year-old Doris, today were un der the care of the Boys and Girls Aid society after investigators learn ed the mother had neglected and abused the children.

Mrs. Klersey explained the punish ment was lnttnled to cure Leonard of sucking his thumbs. Kmmerftr uid the Children Often were left st home without food.

PARIS (UP) Quests at a recant smart afternoon reception arrived forewarned that they would not be served cocktails. The news was conveyed to them on engraved Invitations, in the lower left corner. The word "cockwis- wm struck off In red Ink and the words French Wines" underlined In the same color. The guests, who. Included a large majority of Parisian notables, knew what to expect, and it waa noted. that the warning only served to encourage them. Madame Achilla Fould, wife of the former minister of agriculture, author of the Invitation, waa the hostess. Her Initiative confirms a re cent radio broadoast from Bordeaux In which It was pointed out that so ciety women have dropped the cock- j tall habit and Interested themselves In French wines as much as humbler housewives. It la considered far more chic for : hostess to know wines, how to re-1 place her cellar and fine talk about the choice of vintages for her guests than to be able to rattle off the con- I tents of a dozen or more cocktails. This wine education of French wom en, Incidentally, takes a great burden off the men of the household. The success of Madame Fould'a re ception at which the guests drank only natural sparkling and still wines while eating sandwiches snd pastry. Indicates the decidedly new social ; trend here.
