t fl . PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MATT) TRIBUNE, MEDFOKU," OREGON, "WErJNESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1935. SHOW PARK DUE Fl Tent House Turned Topsy Turvy in Search for Food Before Starting Hiberna tion Suspect's Seen Crater lake Is going to have a hard winter. When the bears at the park start raiding houses this early In the year. It Is a sure sign that they are trying to get the wrinkles out of tnetr stomachs for a long, lusty leep through the cold weather, and a few days ago a family of bruins raided the tent-house of Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Whltworth who were week ending In town. When they left the lake their home was ship-shape, with everything In place. When they returned It was a mess, with boxes and packages brok en Into, food scattered, the electric refrigerator wrecked, mattresses torn and bed clothing scattered, pots and papa In wild dlssaray, and everything in a horrible shambles with the ex ception of two tables. I Tables Spared Although a heavy cabinet was up set and broken Into, a small table with Ink and other knlck-knacka on It was not disturbed, and a larger table, stacked with dishes, was- not disturbed. The fact that the bears shunned these dishes leads to the belief that the marauders were lady bears, fearful that their vacation epree might be spoiled by a look at dirty dishes. They apparently didn't look close, however, for the dishes were Immaculate. Even canned goods got the works. The twisted cans were found scat tered about the house, with the marks of many sharp teeth which had punched holes wheroby to suck the succulent viands from within, . Suspects Seen It's too bad that circumstantial evidence Is not applicable against bears Jn punishment for their crimes, or the next day would have found three sorry bruins at the park. Visi tors spotted a huge old mother bear, her two chubby cubs ambling along behind her, surveying the wrecked cottage from a nearby vantage point the next afternoon. The air of bland tnnooenee on each bearish counten ance as they surveyed the scene of their raid was markedly comical, ac cording to the witnesses, who feel sure that the story of criminals re turning to the scene of their crime baa been given credence. Those familiar wtth ,the bears at the lake say that It won't be long now until they start their long win ter hibernation. Already they are gorging them selves for their sleep. Crater lake Is going to have a hard winter. GAINING INTEREST Crowd! grow each week at the ama teur muslo contest sponsored - by Prultt'a Melody Shop and the Bald win Piano Shoppe.

More towels are needed for the bathroom, and the kitchen floor could certainly stand a coat of paint. The children need shoes. The car will soon need tires. Well, we buy a hundred new things every year. Scattered throughout the United States are manu facturers who make the very things we need. Their pro ducts are on sale in certain stores within easy reach. Certain of these" products, and certain of these stores, are especially fitted to take care of our special need. But which products and which stores? Which can we afford, and which do we think is best? We must look to advertising for advice. Advertising is the straight line between supply and demand. It saves time spent in haphazard shopping. It leads you directly to your goal. By reading the ad vertisements, we can determine in advance where the best values are to be found. With the aid of advertising, shopping becomes a simple and pleasant business, and budget figures bring more smiles than frowns. From the pages of th! paper you can make up a shopping list that wilt save you money. August 7, 1914. Shs had been a resi dent of Sams Valley for ths psst six yesrs.
