Chief of Police Clatous McCredle
says something had got to be done
about the way animals are wan
dering loose In the atreets. To
strangers coming to town It gives
an ornery Impression, says the chief,
to see cows sauntering sround
"Rosey's' depot and to find sleep
grazing in "Art" Banwell's office
grounds. Medford Is not yet a ham-
let and we don't want to look like
one. The crownln' lglntmlty was last
Saturday when four of Wig Ash'
pole's bald face steers wandered from
one end of Central ave to t'other.
It could be no worse. Let us have
pride enough to keep our animals
where they belong.

said the chief. Which made the
wrestling fireman mad.

Our efficient school teacher, Mrs. j
Beeson, says she don't know where I
