A aecond man, amaller and younger, waa atandlng alongaiae, shlverlngly taking In the proceedings. Thle younger man, apparently about 20 yeare or age, waa imis. man for the duo, and It waa he who took over the Back that the attend ant waa filling. He asked where the paper money waa, and waa assured that It waa In the leather sack along with the silver. A careful acrutlny confirmed the fact, and a March of the cash register revealed three tightly rolled Backs of pennies. The two bandlta examined these rolla and after determining their small denomination, tossed them back Into the till, saving Hughes and Under wood (ISO. After rifling the till the two ad vised Underwood to atand in a cor ner of the atatlon until they were well away, and fled west on Sixth street. The telephone In the station was disconnected, so Underwood ran across the atreet and telephoned the police, who were, however, unable to locate the robbera.

INCREASES PACK A small but lusty Infant Is the Willis Sttehl Canning company of Rogue River, packers of the iniMwui irigly popular "Wcl-Pak" brand of solid pack tomatoes. Started In 1930 as a home venture, putting out 30 cases that year, the little cannery has grown until now. In 1936.' they have an output of 80 oases. All of the work In the cannery la now done by the Sttehl family In their home, but they are planning on erecting a building for the operations next year. The excellence of the pack has caused a demand far exceeding the eupply. and the three Medford stores, which handle the entire out put, have Indicated a desire to have ft larger volume next year. Sttehl hopes to employ a battery of helpers before many more seasons roll around. EY SHOWS 69 Local and Personal E IN CITY LIMITS The Medford Realty board haa Jusl completed a thorough survey of the housing situation ln this city. Hie results of which are very Interest' lng. With the assistance of officials frqrn the local post office accurate and reliable lnormatlon waa cured covering the number of va cant dwellings, extent of the "doubl- lng-up" of families and the char acter of vacant houses. Out of 2617 dwelling units In Med ford there were, at the time the survey was made, only 69 vacanclea. Of this number 87 were single fam ily houses, while the remaining 12 were apartmenta. The classification of the vacancies la as follows: Num ber In good livable condition 28. fair condition 14. and In poor and unde sirable condition 27. Of theae 28 desirable vacancies It waa found that approximately SO per cent were being held vacant during the time wiey were on the market for Bale, while several were . already rented, but were awaiting occupancy by the new tenant. This provca conclusively that there are very few desirable houses for rent In Medford and that the property owner who will put his rent property In good condition can be aasured of a tenant. It la alao Interesting to note that there are now 96 families In Mod- ford who are doubling'up with other families, and that If each of these should attempt to secure a house for Itself It would not be possible to accommodate them. The results of these conditions are Increased rents and lncrenscd deslro for home ownership. With the In crease of rents It Is now cheaper to own your own home than to rent. A survey conducted rjy me ru- tlonal Association of Heal tstate boards made In the major cities 01 the United States reveals almost the Identical situation as found In Medford. 4 Slrtko Fatality HOUSTON.
