January 38 and the organization is working dili gently on the program.

Judging from the progress being made in rehearsals the concert will excel previous ap pearances of the chorus and that means a great deal when the stan dards established in former concerts are taken as a criterion.

FRIEND OF CATS Word has been received at the Mail Tribune that Miss Frances Everett, the "cat woman" who has become quite a part of the Medford scene, has recently lost her purse contain ing keys, and 6 in cash, all the money that the lady possessed. The purse, a brown one. was lost at or near the Alexander grocery store January 9. and she Is very anx ious to recover it. Miss Everett Is the lady who la host to any number of otherwise stray cate and kittens at her home on the corner of King and Stewart avenue here. Any member of the feline tribe who Is lost or deserted always finds a welcome at the Everett home. That lady has apparently never heard that "there are other ways of killing cats besides choking them to death with cream," for she spends most of the little money she manages to scrape together In caring for them Any person who knows anything of the purse would be doing a real kind ness to either take it to the aged lady, or leave it at the Mail Tribune office, from where it will be delivered to her. Thff following information concern ing watches and their care was se cured from Leland Brophy's Jewelry store, to illustrate the importance of good repair service: When an automobile Is purchased, instructions about its care are given the owner. A watch Is a thousand times smaller machine, running con stantly. An automobile, deprived of ruei, oil and reasonable care, soon rebels. A watch, delicate, beautiful In construction, works every minute without rest. And yet aome people think it should run for years with out being cleaned. These figures Indicate the activity or a watch's many parts; all operat Ing Jointly to tell the time: The main wheel makes four revolutions a day. or 1460 In a year; the center wheel makes 24 revolutions a day, or 8760 In a year; the third wheel makes 192 revolutions a day. or 70.080 In a year; the fourth wheel makes 440 rev olntlons dally and 526,000 yearly. The escapement wheel of a watch makes 12.960 revolutions a day, or 4 730.400 In a year. A watch ticks 432.000 times daily and J57.680.000 times yearly. Its mechanism is much abused. The cleaning of a watch is a complicated matter requiring the I entire movement to be taken apart and each piece washed separately In j a solution previous to polishing WINDOW OLASS tte sell window i glass and will replace your broken windows reasonably Trowbridge Cab- inet Works.
