value of newspapers from both
the standpoint of general world
news and advertising. He point-'
ed out the methods and the high :
type of correspondents used to
provide the American people
with the latest reports on world
events, and explained impor
tance of Journalism in providing
protection to the people from
internal subversive activities
and the indispensibility of news
during unsettled times. He fur
ther commented on the impor
tance of advertising and the
effect of advertising on every
day life of general public.
Report was given by Gene

of a committee in charge of

Warren Liggett was a guest
of the club. President Harold
Wall presided.

extra. Originally he was sup

dear, dear he had them re

movies and the oil business.

The automobile was a Jiminy
Cricket who switched the oil
story from kerosene to gasoline.
The Diesel engine may be the
Jiminy Cricket of today. Maybe
we haven't yet recognized the
latest Jiminy Cricket at all. But
tliis we know however expen
sive it may be, change is con
stantly inevitable.
That's one reason we don't
worry about Jiminy Crickets.
W ells go dry. Refining methods
grow obsolete. Standard spends
a substantial part of every dol
lar it takes in to keep up with
the Jiminy Crickets the tal
ents which unexpectedly steal
the show of Progress.

The speaker, by way of em
phasizing Medford's- importance
as a "gateway" to Crater lake,
reminded Rotarians of this city s
increasingly important position
on the air map of the west and
predicted increased travel to
the national park and national
monuments here via the air
lines.
The rim road is now graded,
and while the surface is not
complete, it is in good shape for
travel this season," Leavitt told
his audience. He also Impressed
upon Rotarians the excellent
work that has been accomplished
by CCC crews.
With only four years of winter-season
activity at Crater lake,
the winter months travel this
year reached a total of 32.692
people, Leavitt said. Improve
ments in accommodations at
