PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, 'MEDFOKU, OREGON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1935. ROGERS' FAILURE IN ROLE OF GUPID RECALLED BY ADE Th Wl 11 Rofn Memor J al cam -pelgn hM brought out numerous at or left about the famous comodinn that hitherto were unpubl ished. One of these concerns the cowboy philoso pher when he tried to piny cupld from the stage ot a theater In which George Ade. Hoosler humorist, And Mary Garden, opera stnr, were mem bers of the audience. The celebrated couple had never met. Mr. Ade relates: "My most amuslnsf experience with him vae et Orchestra Hull In Chi cago at a matinee performance. He learned In some way thnt I wm out In front and called me by nnnvs and later when his show was ov.ir and he was sitting on the edge of the stage with hi legs hanging over, trading wise-cracks and amall talk with the ladles In front, he spotted me when I Arose to edce toward the door. I ' had been seated below In a box In TrhJ ch Mary Garden had been al much-observed celebrity. SugRestJi Marring "Will suddenly halted me and gnve me a long-ranie Introduction to Mary In the box above and she acknowl edged the Introduction graciously and then Will suggested to her thnt H would be a good Idea for her. as a confirmed old maid, to Immediately have conference with me, as a tox:gh old bachelor, with the Idea we would make a dandy couple because I could work In the back room, writing my tuff, and Mary could close all the doors and do her vooM practicing at the other end of tho house. He thought we were old enough to get married and It was up to ua to net on this grand suggestion at once. "Of coure, the crowd shrieked with laughter and Mary Oarden went Into convulsions but I didn't do anything but stand there and grin. "Usually when I met Will Rogers we wlked mostly about Jess Andrew, with whom Rogers was very friendly because of polo and horses, and Kin Hubbard, the lovable and unforget table 'Abe Martin.' "Rogers had a great liking for Kin and that can be understood because they were very much alike In their general attitude toward the human raoe. "By the way, one of tho greatest things that Will Rogers did wna to marry tho charming and intellltjont i woman known as Mrs. Rogers. When I happened to be with both of them lie certainly did not conceal his at titude of deference to her and her opinions."

Western Auto Has Display New 1936 Air Patrol Radios Embodying many new develop ments, tho new 1936 Western Air Patrol radios for the home, which are now on display at the Western Auto Supply company store in this city, offer greater enjoyment than ever before to radio listeners, accord ing to Charles Pritchett, manager, who Invites all Medford to Tlew these new sets. "Of the many Improvements to be found In the 1936 Western Air Patrol all-wave sets, the most strik ing Is the use of new metal tubes," states Pritchett. "These tubes, which are self-shielding, eliminate dlstor- i t'on and oscillation, thus greatly Improving distance and clarity of reception In regular broadcast chan nels as well as short wave. The new circuits have been especially designed to make full use of every advan tase of these metal tubes. "Another prominent feature of all Western Air Patrol radios la that they are "Westernized," embodying features specially designed hy our radio engineers, to overcome radio reception difficulties that are pe cullar to the west. "A most Jmportant part of any radio Is its weaker and acoustics." Pritchett asserts. "All 1936 Western Air Patrols have largo dynamic speakers. In the all-wave cabinet sets the auditorium size speakers reproduce every sound from a whis per to orchestral volume with accu racy. The special design for better acoustics reduces directional effect of tone that Is found in ordinary radios. "The beautiful cabinets of tho en- tir line of 1B36 Western Air Patrol radios are IdeaH furniture pieces -for anv room. Amone the woods tised are burl walnut, stump walnut, American walnut and lemon. Ebony Inlays are used In many places to enhance the appearance of both con sole and table models. The finish brings out all the natural beauty of the woods used." Reese Creek , ,a.,, REESE CREEK Nov.
