they have gone
far enough to
afford the Inner

A bonus bill .will be enacted In

but. If so. It will pass over his

Note The whole bonus situation
was canvassed by Garner. Speaker
Joe Byrns. Senator Joe Robinson.
Senator Jimmy Byrnes and others
on their Philippine Junket. They all
came to the conclusion that the
bonus would be passed, veto or no
veto. This opinion has already been
passed along to Mri Roosevelt.
The latest Is that Mr. Roosevelt Is
undecided whether to play the neu

the Issue come up from within, the

ment dining room of the Elks temple
where 1,100 of Jackson county's poor
children were treated to a sumptu
ous Christmas banquet by Oatcs &
Lydiard.
To this large group of under-privileged
children came a real Santa
Claus, a real Christmas. Happiness
.sparkled In their bright, young eyes;
joy waa mirrored In their Innocent
laces. For a fleeting hour or two they
enjoyed genuine pleasure and they
drank heavily of it, unconscious at
the scrutiny of the adults who gave
generously of their time to serve
them or came to the temple to share
the Christmaa spirit that prompted
the banquet.
No one could expect a greater man
ifestation of politeness, courtesy and
consideration than displayed by the
youthful guests. Despite the large
assemblage, there was not a moment
of disorder or confusion. The chil
dren listened attentively to tho in
structions issued them and then me-
ttcuously followed them out to the
letter.
The children were served a com
plete turkey dinner and were given
all thry could eat. After the dinner
they filed out past Santa Claus who
gave to each little guest & sack of
candy and fruit. It was en event that
they will remember through life,
Tho tables were set for 650 guests
and there were two servings. The Iirst
group served was from Medford and
vicinity. The second group came from
other sections of the county.
While the places were being served,
the children sang Christmas carols
under direction of Don Huckabce,
Craterlan organist. The Rev. E. 8.
Bartlam, rector of St. Mark's Epis
ccpal church, gave the invocation.
Photographs were taken by Verne
Shanglc.
William A. Gates and William H.
Lydiard. hosts to the children, shared
in tho happiness they had brought
to their little guests. Mr. Gates, a red
carnation In hla lapel, passed among
the children to encourage them to at
all they wanted and to see that their
desires were satisfied. Mr. Lydiard
waa there with his movie camera, re
cording the happy expressions as the
children enjoyed what waa probably
the most gcneious dinner they had
ever had.
It waa a big day for the children
but their expressions Indicated it was
an even blcgcr day for Mr. Gates and
Mr Lydiard.

A very real danger lies behind

Dozens of "crank letters" are ex
amined' In the clinic each month,
and In Dr. Hoffmann's opinion the
majority come from authors capable
of carrying out their threats.
"They are written by persons defi
nitely psychopathic." he said.
"The author suffer from para
noid ideas: from delusions. They put
themselves In tho picture as the one
who has been harmed.
By "harmed," Dr. Hoffman ex
plained, he meant endangered by so
ciety's efforts to solve a crime. The
behavlorlst added:-
"When such a person, never oven
remotely connected with & celebrated
crime, writes that- he is one of the
principals, he firmly believes he par.

Lindberghs' Cold Holiday

The world prepared today to cele
brate a Christmas of "peace on earth
and good will toward men" while

Pope Pius sadly admitted to 84
cardinals who brought him Christ

Christmas of peace would not be ful
filled. These are "moments darkened by
melancholy, menacing clouds, and
human bloodshed," he said.
Rome, heart of the Italian drive
against Ethiopia, curtailed the
Chrlstmss spirit and everywhere the
spirit of "buy Italian" as retaliation
against League of Nations sanctions
mingled with the spirit of the holi
day.
Cheery yuletlde wishes often

"Don't forget sanctions."
