John F. Lawrence said today. Orig inal hand-painting of thla fine china offers beauty and Individuality that lend personal charm to a product that la rich In traditions, since the design of tsble service should har monize perfectly with both table dec orations and the general furnishings of rooms. Spode features a wide se lectlon of designs and color blendlngi in this fine chlnaware. Patterns are never discontinued, Mr. Lawrence stated. Due to the fact that the display of Spode chlnaware will be shown In the principal cities of the Pacific coast, the Medford showing Is limited to one day, and because of the large number of patterns the Hotel Jack son has been selected for the public presentation.

THURSDAY, the best solution would be for the county court to set aside several worthless pieces of land In various parts of the county for public dumpa. for there will always be city residents who object to paying for the removal of garbage, and fahmera who do not think It paya to fertilise their own land with tin cans. H. HERBERT. Rout 4. Medford, Oregon. Anawer to Marie N. D'Alblnt To the Editor: I'm afraid, lady, you took my letter a little too seriously, overlooking the satire. The facts were token from Compton's Encyclopedia. Vols. 6 and 7. If anything was misstated then Compton'a must be wrong. You tell them about It If, they are not dead. Did I not say that Shay's rebellion was before the constitution was In operstlon. The constitution Is the Articles of Confederation after It was revised. It took years to revise them to suit esch state aa they were unit ed. And Shay's rebellion was one of the things that helped to change It. The delegate did not revise anything casually: It took outside Influence. Taft made It possible for the peo ple to elect their representatives In stead of them being appointed by congress, is that not changing the constitution? When people say "the president did this or he did that." Is It not understood that It passed with the two-thirds vote of congress? You say newspapers should not publish com munications when they are wholly wrong. Well now. dear lady, would fAPRTL 29. 1937. that be "constitutional?" Who Is there to say that another is wholly wrong? Even a nit-wit might have a sensible Idea about at least one thing. And Just because one person does not see like -another, la no ex cuse for them to abuse the rights of free speech as set down in the first amendment to the U. 8. consti tution by calling them names. The constitution does say that "the president has the power to elect ambassadors and Justices of the su preme court and other officers of the United States whose appointment la not otherwise provided for In the constitution." By the approval of congress, of course, aa In all thtnga. that la understood. 'I did not mean that It waa In the constitution that anyone may dis obey any law, pleading It was un constitutional. It was implied In the article on the "Fundamental Laws of the Nation." g We have the beat government hi the whole world, no doubt of It. But that does not mean that It la In fallible. If It wasn't for the rebel lioua and the radicals, it would not have been as It Is. MARY ETHEL ATKINS. Medford. April 38. Smile Wins Promotion. OMAHA, Neb.. April 39. (fls) H. D.
