10 CLOSE DANCES
AT
No further action will be taken by
the county court In the matter ot
uniformity In dance closing hours In
Jackson county. Commissioner R. E.
Nealon aald yesterday, "because there
Is nothing the county court can do."
The county court endeavored to
have all close at midnight, but dis
covered It was up against aeveral legal
stumpe. public opinion, state laws,
and city ordinances.
At one stage of the negotiations
the county court considered the feasi
bility of removing the lid and allow
ing all to remain open until 3:00
o'clock in the morning, as do Jack
sonville and Gold Hill. They dis
covered here also that they were con
fronted by the law and bonds.
Jacksonville and Gold Hill are In-
romorated towns, and the county
tourt has no Jurisdiction. The Jack
sonville dance has remained open
until 2:00. Gold Hill recently re
aumed the late hour dancea. In Med
ford, and unincorporated towns, the
closing hour la midnight. Beer re
freshment parlors, with dance floors,
stop dancing at midnight, but under
the state law can sell beer until 1 :0O
o'clock. Under these closing hours
there la a rush to Jacksonville' and
Gold Hill dances after midnight. The
rush is not as terrific aa It used to
be. as many ot the waiters linger
where they are to lift the flowing
bowl. .
The Jacksonville council conferred
with the county court, but finally
voted that Inasmuch aa the Chamber
of Commerce committee In charge of
the dances, had hired the orchestra
for August, nothing could be done
until September.
The same problem confronta the
courts of other Oregon counties. It
la probable that the next session of
the legislature will be called upon
t nasa a uniform dance closing hour
law, and remove some of the conflicts
In the present laws.
that are made possible by Western
Auto'a greateat August sale event la
found In the tremendous response
accorded the aale at the local store
of the firm In this city, states C. J.
Prltchett, manager. He says the event
will continue through the balance of
the month.
"The popularity of Western Auto'a
greatest August sale la well deserved,"
C. J. Prltchett asserted. "The regular
prices of our gooda are very low, and
motorists have learned that they aave
money by trading at one of our stores.
But during this month hundreds of
these customarily low prices are re
duced even further, offering as many
extra savings to our patrons.
"One of the main reasona that this
event haa been so quickly and widely
accepted la the confidence of our cua
tomera In the honest valuea on which
Western Auto's reputation has been
built alnce Its founding, over 18 years
ago."
"Another Influencing factor la the
rirm'a broad interpretation of the
word 'service.' And every store haa
been made a place where the cus
tomer enjoya ahopplng lor hla auto
motive needs.
In speaking of the automotive and
camping equipment which are being
offered at lower prices, C. J. Prltchett
pointed out that seat covers, Penn
Supreme Pennsylvania oil. tenta and
camping mattressea are Just a few of
the many motoring and outing needs
available. Clean-up materials, such
as cleaners, polishes and car wax, may
also be had at lower prices during
this one-month sale.

OLD-TIME POTLATDH
REVIVED IN SEME
SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 23. (AP)
The International potlfttch started
today with a colorful, barbaric pa
rade in which Indiana, beautiful
girls, Alaskan sourdoughs, wild-west
gunmen, horses and dragons mingled
In a wild Jamboree.
This year's revival of the old-time
Seattle civic festival was attended by
thousands from all over the north
west, such cities as Portland. Ta

day, August 34, at 0:30 a. m. on tho
Jackson school ground. The stand
ing thus far Is Ashland two wins.
Medford one. This will be the last
change for the championship that
Medford will have. From all Indi
cations during practices, the Medford
team Is much stronger and shoud
put up a very good fight for the title.
AH boys who have turned out lor
practices will have aa opportunity
to play. Roy Walsh of the American
Legion, who has been sponsoring the
league, will be on hand to start the
game.
Jackson county, to date, according
to the records of the county court,
haa Issued 173 old age pension certifi
cates, and 38 applications are held
pending Investigation. Twelve ap
plications have been granted, but are
awaiting signing of reimbursement
contracts, which the old age pension
law requires. The average amount
of the old age pension warrants Is
between 111 and 113. The number
of old age pensions granted is on a
par with other Oregon counties, but
the amount Is higher. The average
monthly payments In a number of
eastern Oregon and Willamette val
ley counties Is slightly more than 8
per month.
Total number of old age pension
applications since January 1 . last.
when the law went into effect, is
318. There has been rejected 105 ap
plications, chiefly for lack of re
quired length of residence in the
state, below the age limit, or other
sources of sufficient income. A num
ber of inmates of the county poor
farm have applied for the pension,
and the requests were denied because
of the present state of the county
finances. The purpose of the law is
to eventually do away with the poor
farm, with Its attendant humiliation.
Lillian E. Roberts, Red Cross aide
and welfare worker, is now on her
vacation, s soon as she returns the
county court, acting aa a pension
board, will take final action on pend
ing applications.

IT'S a fact more people are buying the new Goodyear "G-3'r
All-Weather than any other tire in the world!
Think what that success must mean!
The "G-3" costs no less than other tires it's no greater bar
jain in price so it must be a bargain in safety!
It has grip in the center of the tread where you need it for
quicker stops and it keeps that grip 43?S longer than former
All-Weathers, by actual test fleet records.
Many enthusiastic users tell us, it keeps its grip twice as long
as any tire they ever used!
No wonder other tires can't match its success! The fact is,
they can't even match the foundation of its success, which is
patented Goodyear Supertwist in every ply.
Come in and see this tire
that's breaking sales rec
ords and ask about our
guarantee.
