Nason and her daughter. Margaret, of the Old Stage Road, are now on an adventurous cruise which will take them within 850 miles of the north pole and which will probably provide a num ber of thrills. It Is doubtful, however, If the polar cruise will provide anything so dangerously thrilling as an ex perience they had close to home on the first leg of their long, leisurely Journey. Mrs. Nason and her daughter sailed from San Francisco on May 22 and the second day out their ship col lided with a Japanese steamer loaded with ammunition for the Invading Klpplnese armies In China, Mrs. Nason recounted In a letter written In Montreal, Canada. July 6. "We were fortunate to escape without serious consequences," Mrs. Nason wrote to a friend here. The American ship had to be laid up for repairs and an official inquiry at San Pedro, Mrs. Nason wrote. In time, however, the Jour ney was resumed to New York via the Panama Canal. Going through the canal, Mrs. Nason and Miss Nason were privileged to stand on the ship's bridge from which they procured a good view of the canaL its locks and surrounding country. Mrs. Nason said she was greatly Im pressed with the langorous tropic beauty of Panama. New York was found to be too hot for comfort and so after a fort night's visit the travelers continued to Montreal, a city Mrs. Nason de scribed as exceedingly beautiful. The Medford travelers were to leave Montreal on their cruise toward the north pole last Saturday. They were to be the only women on the ship, the captain making a conces sion to accommodate them as only a few male passengers had ever be fore been booked for the voyage. The ship goes north once a year to convey supplies and equipment to fur trappers In the distant and re mote northlands. ILLEGAL TO IN CLOSED It Is unlawful In every state of the union to leave a dog In a parked car with the windows closed during the summer months, the public was reminded today by the Southern Oregon Humane society. "It Is an act of cruelty to leave a dog in a closed parked car In summer, all the worse if the car Is standing In the sun," the society said. "Every man and woman .motorist knows what It Is to sit in a sta tionary car five minutes In the broiling sun, yet many will, leave a dog for an hour or more, with the suffering growing In severity by the minute. We plesd with every dog owner to treat the pet humanely."
