S. navy, in charge of re cruiting stations In Oregon and por tions of Washington and Idaho, vi lted Medford yestreday and had an Interesting report to make on work of tho navy In acquiring young men to fill Its ranks. Although we used to sell the. navy to the recruits, now we sell the re cruits to the navy," Capt. Crosse said after paying a visit to the Medford office and Recruiting Officer C. S. Tongue. He explained that modern exam inations and methods of enlistment are so complete that only one out o! every lfl applicants la able to pass the requirements. The navy strives to enlist high school graduates, and all young men who qualify must be well above average physically, and above all reproach morally and men tally, Capt. Crosse said. "As a result of this selective re cruiting," he continued, "the navy has reached a higher standard thin It has ever attained." If a boy Is able to go to college after graduation from high school, C&pt. Crosse believes that he should by alt means do so, but the officer said he knows of no better university thac the U. S. navy. After 15 or 20 years' service, he said, a member of the navy can leave with a regular salary comparable with any and exceeding most civil positions. "Thirty years ago, the United States had a navy of beef; now It has a navy of brains," the captain said. He explained that due to the low monthly quota assigned to the Med ford district, which Includes an area comprising most of southern Oregon, only about 40 recruits have been en listed through the local station since Its establishment last May. Because of that low quota, Capt. Crosse said these 40 boys are outstanding youths of the community and were able to meet the highest requirements when given their final examinations. Capt. Crosse expressed his Indebt edness to Mayor George Porter and to Postmaster Frank DeSouza f jt their assistance In starting the locl station. He expects that the quota for the Medford district will Increase within the next several months, due to the naval building program now under way, which will furnish more ships to be manned, thus giving more youths opportunity to take up naval careers. Turkey Receiving Plant Established By Southern Firm Increased activities in the firm tur key deal In the Medford area, are responsible or the establishment of a receiving plant In Medford by Jacobs, Malcolm & Burtt of San Fran cisco.

Healy of the staff of St. Vin cent's foundling asylum, She said applications for Yule babies, al ways heavy as the holiday season nears, have Increased 20 per cent over last year. Twenty of the most attractive infants are being adopt ed now so that they may celebrate Christmas in their new homes- E EASILY IDE IF Holiday goodies! What a ehsllenge to the Imagination. The old family cook books, dog-esred and time-yellowed, are thumbed to find Aunt Jen nie's fruit cake recipe or perhaps that pumpkin pie that "took all honors" at grandma's Thanksgiving dinners. Sentimental? Test There Is some thing about old recipes that makes everyone long to prepare a truly ex cellent bit of holiday cookery. In case the old recipes with their Indefinite measures are found, re member that quality in Ingredients Is still as requisite to baking success as it was when these recipes were new. Grandmother with her practiced "hand" could make these old recipes work like a charm. Her baking suc cess depended upon her individual ability and Initiative. In a word, grandmother had to be her own "cooking expert." Not so today trained and experienced home econ omists In most large food plants am continually checking and testing both ingredients and recipes. These peo ple are eager to serve you. At Fisher Flouring mills, the housewife's rep resentative Is Mary Mills. By using tested Ingredients with tested recipes the chance of failure and dependence upon Individual "good cookery" Is minimized, unlike our grandmothers, whether we are ex perienced cooks or amateurs, our bak ing la made certain by quality In gredients and excellent recipes, test ed under home conditions by cooking experts. In holiday cooking, fine flour is especially essential. Fisher's Blend is that fine flour. Mary Mills assures you that Fisher's Blend will meat your specifications. We may not cook at any other time of the year perhaps we even dislike cooking, but this season the blending of rich, flavorous fruits and nuts Into wonderful cakes, cookies and pastr.es becomes fascinating. Grandmother's cookie Jar may no longer function the year 'round. At holiday time, however, cookies, fruit cakes and pies become the "dernier crie." They havo wonderful possibilities as gifts. Mary Mills urges you to entrust the success of your festive cookery to Fisher's Blend. mind Man 's Cane Stolen WICHITA FALLS, Tex.(UP) The world's meanest man paid Wichita Falls a visit, stopping Just long enough to steal the cane belonging to Cosby Snodgrass, blind man who sells newspapers In the downtown district. schedule for the Christmas market will be found elsewhere In this issue, Mr. Frledrlchs is now In the territory completing plans for the opening of the Medford packing house, as well as those also operated at Rogue Elver, Eagle Point and Ashland. 1: Pi I Ml Snider's Announce- Many Clever New Molds For Your Christmas ICE CREAM POINSETTAS SANTA CLAUS XMAS TREES Special For Children TURKEYS.

Work on the production will begin the first of the year, at Mt. Baker, Washington, finally chosen for the location. Upon his arrival back In Hollywood, Mants will flv Curtlss plane In Wallace Beery's next picture, "West point of the Air." Mantz did all the airplane work in the picture, "Night Flight." In the picture, "Air Mall," he accomplished the dangerous feat of flying a plane directly through an airplane hangar. In all his career of stunt and pro fessional flying, he has met with only two accidents, neither of them seri ous. His latest flying for the movies was done In a picture starring Myrna Loy, not yet released. Accompanying Mantz In the flight to Washington were William Well man, director of the 20th Century Studios In Hollywood; Adolph Zim mer, assistant director; Orvllle Stew art, location manager, and John Eb erly, studio manager.
