RALLY IS MADE
BY
Hope for the life of Mrs. B. J.
Palmer, who has been no more than
holding her own in a fight against
pneumonia in a Salem hospital fol
lowing an auto crash near there,
rose last night when it was learned
the Medford woman had rallied
slightly following a blood transfus
Ion.
Mr. Palmer, in a telephonic con
versation last night with Clayton
Isaacs here, said that Mrs. Palmer
had been under an oxygen tent
since Saturday, and was beginning to
show improvement. Hurt badly In
the auto crash which also sent Mr.
Palmer to the hospital, little hope
was held at first for Mrs. Palmer's
life by attending physicians but Mr,
Palmer sounded very hopeful, Isaacs
said today.
Palmer himself has recovered so
j greatly that he has left tho hospital,
and la now able to be about, he told
Isaacs.
Mark of The Beast
Batrd's Topic For
Next Sunday Night
Rev. W. R. Batrd will speak Sun
day night at the Christian church
cn "the mark of the beast." by re
quest, It was announced today. A
full church enjoyed Reverend Balrd's
Bible study on "The Seal of God,
the announcement said, adding that
members are urged to come early and
bring a friend.
The announcement continues:
"Many theories have been advanced
from time to time, as to what the
'mark of the beast' Is and who has
It. All are agreed that It Is the mark
of a doomed soul. Some say it was
the NRA, others that it la Sunday
observance, and others that it is the
bundle of sticks' on our money.
What does the Bible say? What Is
the mark of the power represented
by the 'little horn of Daniel 7? No
wonder men are, deeply interested In
this subject when God sent a mes
senger to this little planet to ex
plain it."

Plans for the reorganization of
Company A, 186th Infantry, were
being carried forward today and it
was anticipated that the national
guard unit would soon be brought
up to Its full active membership-
Apropos the reorganization, Ben
E. Harder today luued this state
ment: As president of the Jackson
County Chamber of Commerce, 1
sincerely hope that the efforts now
being extended by the national
guard organization here, to obtain
its full strength, will be successful.
''The natlonM guard is a very in
tegral part of our national defense
system, and Jackson county should
try to uphold its share of responsi
bility in this vitally Important mat
ter.
"Company A. 186th Infantry, has
made a remarkable record for Itself
over a period of years and the va
cancies at present existing, should
be filled immediately.
"The weekty training not only
crentes a better spirit of patriotism
but Is also beneficial from a health
standpoint, and the opportunities to
study for advancement ah quid be
an Incentive to every young man
over 18 years of age. Two former
members are now commissioned of
ficers In the United States army.
Business men and citizens generally
should encourage young men to
Join the national guard.
'The $80,000 armory Is a distinct
asset to Medford and In a strictly
business sense Is worth $12,000 a
year to the city as a result of pay
and Incidental expenses.
'We have no guarantee that the
armory will be always maintained
by the national guard, but If we
are to assure a continuation of Its
usefulness, we should keep Company
A up to full strength."
POLITICAL MEREST
The next governor of Oregon may
well be a man of 30 years of age.
Governor Martin told 300 Young
Democrats at the Jackson day din
ner held here last night.
Youth must come, to the fore In
the political affairs of this state,
the governor asserted.
The executive declared himself sol
idly behind the special election
measure to change the primary elec
tion date from May to September,
contending th present perlcd be
tween the primary and general elec
tion was far too long.
