Named Second by Judges
In County Finals Bet

. One of tne closet races ever wlt
) peaaed in rural dramatic contests In
'' Jacluon county came to & closo last
XUgUt before an audience of 700 peo
ple when Trail extension unit placed
first In the contest finals at tne Med
ford senior high school, winning the
honor of representing Jackson coun
ty In presenting their play, "Albany
Depot," In the state festival of dra
matics at Oregon State college next
week, when the state home Interests
conference will be In session. Other
counties giving winning plays at that
time will be Columbia, Clackamas.
Multnomah, Lane and Deschutes.
"Singapore Spider" by Eagle Point
Orange won second. place In the con
test, and "Just Debts" by Talent
Orange placed third last night. Judges
for the finals were Angus Bowmer
of the Southern Oregon Normal
school, James Stevens of this city and
Lois Kendall of Ashland high school.
Acting Improved.
Higher quality In amateur acting,
brought about through friendly com
petition, is the object of the exten
sion service of Oregon State college
lnsponsorlng the annual contests.
This objective is being attained in
Jackson county with satisfactory
$ suits, the dramatic committee work
' lng this year under the splendid di
rection of Angus Bowmer, director of
dramatics at the Southern Oregon
Normal.
The following points are considered
In Judging the plays: Setting, cos
tuming and makeup, tableau, tempo
and rhythm, reading of lines, personal
acting (Including interpretation and
sustaining of character), and reaction
to other actors.
With continuous practice since
their Initial appearance In their home
communities a few days ago, each of
the productions last night showed
marked Improvement. The Trail cairt.
an I their directors, Minnie Blaess and
Helen Hughes, are to be particularly
commended on the superior acting of
their 18 characters, set against a
somewhat drab background of a de
pot waiting-room. A speedy tempo
was maintained throughout the scene.
DuiJt around the humorous predica
ment of a husband waiting at the
station for an unknown cook. The
part of the husband was played by
M. E. LaDleu. supported by Irwin
flldnev Huahes. Arlee Racsdale. Irma
Cushman,. . Mabel Rogsdale, - Sidney
Hughes, and the following extras:
Laura Bell LaDleu, Lena Zlmmerlee,
Oeraldlno Scott, Wanda Howe, Lyal
Tucker, Mr Jennie Hutchinson and
Lawrence Watson.
Eagle pointers Good.
In contrast to this farce, the
ghastly setting of "The Singapore
Spider." by Eagle Point Grange, with
its spectral blue light playing upon
the tragic faces of Its five charac
ters, as well as adding to the eerie
aspect of the room, was equally ef
fective. Murder for 17500, and con
sequential death of the criminals who
were bitten by the Singapore spider,
comprised the plot of the play, staged
In the living room of the embittered
Captain Hcrrldew (Clarence Davles).
Other members of the cast included
Raymond Nengart, Al Mlttlesteadt
and Cora Crandall. The fine acting
In this play was directed by Chas.
Praser.
Considering that there were no un
usual requirements in the Talent
, Orange play. "Just Debts," In the
way of makeup, costuming and stage
setting, the excellence of their play
depended principally upon the per
sonal acting of the five characters
The plain living room or a village
residence constituted the setting,
where the city council was In session-

SCIENTIFIC REPORT
FAVORS BRAN
Relieves Common Constipa
tion Safely
Read this statement, taken from
an article in the Journal of the
Amoriran Dietetic Association,
pages. 133-134, Nov., l'J32:
"The inclusion in the diet of a
mall portion of bran . . . would
aeem a very practical way of get
ting fiber which is not likely to be
disintegrated. This bran has the
additional advantage of furnishing
1 a considerable amount of vitamin
B and of readily available iron."
Exhaustive tests, over a period
of five years, have proved Kellogg'
All-Bran to be a safe, effective
way to correct constipation due to
insufficient "bulk" or fiber in meals.
It is accepted hy the American
Medical Association Committee on
Foods for this purpose.
You will enjoy this pleasant way
to prevent tho dangers of constipa
tion. You can eat Kellogg's All
Bra.v as a cereal with milk or
cream. Or conk into delicious

Ye Poet's Cornei
Preams
While going through life we all have
our dreams.
Dreams that we wish would come
true;
And while we are dreaming, the
clouds drift away,
And tbe sklu are a glorious blue.
I see a cozy white cottage at the end
of a lane.
With roses all around the door:
A nest In the west with the one I
love best.
Who could ask for more?
At eve when the toll of daytime Is
o'er
And twilight's shadows fall,
We sit In the door of our cozy home.
And listen to the mourning dove
call.
His song Is so sweet and low and sad,
It sends a chill to my heart;
It seems he Is wiling how I would
feel
It you and I should part.
I listen to Its weeping, sorrowful song.
And think it was a cruel fate.
That a bird so loving and true as he
Must forever mourn for his mate.
And I clasp you tight In my arms,
dear heart,
And you shall never stray;
For It would be the end of my dreams
U you should drift away.
But fate Is cruel to the best of us,
Anri tiow I'm alone with my dreams.
The hours drag on and the dove
moums on
Under the pale moonbeams.
I sit In my lonely doorway and dream,
Dream of my lost love.
And It seems my heart echoes the cry
Of the lonesome mourning dove.
Mary Perry.

Fess, announcing his opposition to

He said his former colleague would
go down to defeat In Ohio, but that
he might get some delegates from the
Cleveland, Akron, Youngstown area.
Fess said he himself would work
for an unlnstructed delegation to the

Roosevelt? If the liability for the
New Deal Is to be placed anywhere.
let It be placed on the Democrats,
not on the Republicans."
Borah Policies Disliked
He declared he personally admired
Borah but was forced into conflict
with him "because of his policies,"
"Whether the inflation ideas of Bo
rah will be objectionable to labor Is
to be seen. Ohio was not for free
silver In 1890 and would not be for
a free silver debauch today."
Norrls voiced a sharp criticism of
the present system 01 choslng post
masters during senate consideration
of the nomination of Mrs. Maude S.
Yancey, Cody, Neb. He declared she
was "at the bottom of the Hat" in
the civil service examination, and
then he attacked the whole system
whereby postmasters are picked on
recommendation of congress mem
bers. Unless It Is changed, be declared.
It will cost the president "millions
of votes. "One word" from the ex

added.
Norrls emphasized that he would
support the president In the forth
coming campaign.
Farley Target
Chaligiian Farley was brought Into
public discussion again when Repre
sentative Marcantonlo (R., N. Y.)
suggested sarcastically that the statue
"Civic Virtue." now In City Hall park,
New York, be erected "in front of the
pew toff tee department." as a "memo
rial to that great leader of Demo
cratic virtue." The New Yorker said
he would auk congress to appropriate

because "they don't know what to
do with It up there."
Knox, in a Cincinnati address, at
tacked the administration's financing
as "issuing paper bonds, payable in
paper dollars, used to create paper
credits which are drawn upon the
treasury In the form of paper checks."
The publisher demanded stabiliza
tion, with "a balanced budget" as the
first step. He declared he did not
know why the dollar was devalued to
58 cents, but said he favored leaving
it there because "more tinkering now,
whether up or down, wouio only cause
fresh perturbations, new uncertain
ties." To questions as to whether he
would do battle with Borah for the
Ohio delegates, he replied: "I am not
going to Jump off the deep end.
There will be no announcement to
day." Sajs F. R. Vindictive
Dickinson accused the president of
"rlndlctlveness." At a Republican
club dinner In Columbus, Ohio, he
declared the New Deal displays "a
fundamental Intolerance of spirit, a
resentfulness of criticism, an Impa
tience of opposition."
Shou&e. lrader -of enemies of the
New Deal, declared in a Chicago
speech that the administration "faces
almost certain defeat" In November.
He said at least 3,000,000 Democrats
would "take a walk" to support a
Republican ticket.
'If the Roosevelt administration
proposes to a tempt to change the con
stitution of the United States, If It
proposes to plow under the supreme
court," he said, "it must present its
proposition fairly, Because America
will not again permit the attempt to
accomplish such puropoae by deceit
and subversion.
The league chief struck out at Sec
retary Wallace for hla "sneering refer
ences" to the supreme court's AAA
decision. Wallace had described the
processors' recovery of Impounded
taxes as the "greatest legalized steal
In history."
In Blnghampton, N. Y., last night.
Wallace declared the court "was In
error In Its ruling on the AAA," but
"we cannot resist Its decision."

would cooperate In withdrawing

rect to the farmers or Indirectly

The seven republican report signers
said Secretary Wallace and Farm Ad
ministrator Chester Davis testified Be
fore the committee "Informally" that
tne greater part of the laud to be
taken out of production through soil-
conservation activities would be used
for grasses, and conceded dairy and
livestock production would b in
creased materially.
Oppose Dislocation
"We are opposed to a program
which has for Its purpose dislocation
of agriculture in this country." the
republicans declared. "Apparently It
Is the purpose of the secretary to
carry out the conservation program at
tbe expense of the dairy and live
stock Industry, which now faces a
surplus condition.
"We do not attempt here to criti
cize an expansion of the dairy and
livestock Industry in a normal and
natural manner, but we do object to
any governmental program whtcn has
for Its purpose tho payment of a sub
sidy to one group of fanners at the
expense of another group engsged In
