Thats What MONEY Is For IF Johnny comes down with appendicitis, we don't stint the doctor bill. If Susie can go to college, we buckle down and pay. For nothing do we Amer icans spend our savings so will ingly as to give our children a future. Well, now is the time. We don't buy bonds. We buy freedom for our children. Our forefathers did as much for us. To assure our freedom they pledged their lives, their jortunet, and their sacred honor. Now it's our turn. Wherefore this Company is trying to make it simpler for everybody to buy bonds. In Los Angeles, Standard erected and gave the Govern ment a glass Defense House located in Pershing Square center of the bond drive. And sow, too, defense sumps are on sale at all of the 1,100 Standard Stations throughout the West Uncle Sam's men tell as this has been a great help. But, after all, the bond campaign is up to you . . . and you ... and you. The chips are down. It's all or nothing. Enlist your pocketbook to fight for your children. The Britons, the Poles, the Czechs, the Russians, the Danes, the Greeks, the Nor wegians, and the men who signed the Declaration of In dependenceare calling to you that that's what money's for.

Al33i CITY LAST YEAR 966 Dogs Licensed, Council Told 307 Strays Exe cuted; City Judge Reports Last year 966 dogs within Medford were licensed, It was stated in a summary of activi ties filed with the city council last night by Mrs. Sidney W. Richardson, secretary-manager of the Southern Oregon Humane society. Declaring that "as usual" the society "was broke" on January 1, Mrs. Richardson's report ask ed for an advance of $200 on the society's contract with the city to handle the dog problem. During the past year 307 stray, unlicensed and unwanted dogs were humanely disposed of, the report said, 84 of these being from "known addresses outside the city." One hundred four lost dogs were restored to their owners by the society, 78 unwanted dogs were placed in new homes, 387 cats were hu manely disposed of and 17 were placed in new homes and 83 controversies over animals were kept out of the courts, the re port stated. City Judge Reports Report of City Judge W. W. Allen showed that $194.50 was collected in fines in December. Highest fines, $50, came from two cases of drunken driving. Four cases of disorderly con duct brought $35 and three cases of f a.l 1 u r e to give right-of-way brought $30, the re port showed. Ten cases of being drunk in public headed the list numerically but brought no cash into the city coffer, it be ing explained by Councilman Larry Schade that they were "the usual winos" without funds, they going to Jail Instead of paying fines. During 1941 there were 988 cases in city court, highest on record and 248 more than the 340 cases handled In 1940 Judge Allen's report said. Fines collected last year totalled $1,898.10 as compared with $981.50 In 1940, according to the report. Judge Allen said it was his opinion that the increase was due largely to greater activ ity by the police department, es pecially in making arrests in heavier traffic. Refer Repeal Referred to the building and light committee was a petition from merchants asking repeal of the ordinance requiring a li cense of anyone selling electri cal devices. It was pointed out that virtually every kind of store sells such gadgets, rang ing "from a five-cent light socket plug to an electric pi ano." Frank Rogers, building in spector, said the original idea of the license was to weed out inferior, unsafe merchandise not approved by the underwriters' bureau. Conditions have im proved much and if the ordin ance were repealed the mer chants would still be under a state law providing a small fee and inspection, the sole aim be ing to keep unsafe electrical de vices off the market, Mr. Rogers said. Councilman Clarence A. Just a Few Left! Deluxe Oil Circulators if !! Liberal Trade-in Allowance - Easy Terms HUBBARD BROS.

Carpenter, Colorado revenue director, bought himself a bike and ped aled to the statehouse at Denver to prove his tax collectors could use bikes instead of autos. Gov. Ralph L. Carr approved an order for 40 bikes for Carpenter's agents, one a woman. Meeker said that since many people were affected because of fire danger, the petition should be studied thoroughly before any action was taken. The council voted to contrib ute $100 to the county dog con trol board. To fill a vacancy In the fire department, the city civil serv ice commission certified three men and the selection was re ferred to a committee and the fire chief with authority to act.

A. Men to Hold Meetings Is Latest In Long Decline. Bern, Switzerland, Jan. 7. (P) Reliable information arriv ing from Germany Indicated to day that Adolf Hitler's brown shirted storm troopers no long er play an Important role In the nazl party and may soon cease to function altogether. The organization, called the S. A. (Sturm Arbeitung) has always borne the brunt of the party's heavy work since early days. It was said to be slipping since shortly after the begin ning of the campaign against Russia. The first Indication came when the organization's news paper, Die S. A., ceased publi cation In August with no offic ial explanation. Members who inquired were told simply that the action was taken because of a paper shortage. Called To Army Next came an order calling a large percentage of S. A. men to the colors in the regular army MONTGOMERY n m v'wi , foW' "M Formtrly$49to$55wlthootax!7 Get here fast enough ts match up one of the $55 coon and yowll save as much as $16.50 en the deall But no matter which you choose, you're getting the bargain ef a lifetime . . . fine Coneys luxuriously dyed to look for all the world like rkh Sable, shining Seal Of sleek brown leaver.

The most recent move was the secret order forbidding S. A. men to hold meetings. No explanation was given. A neutral observer, however, who has Just come from Berlin, said the real reason was the fact that some of the storm troop meetings had turned Into forums for criticizing the con duct of the Russian campaign. (The S. A., the backbone of nazl party organization since the party's birth, formed a party militia which aided Hitler's rise to power. Capt. Ernest Roehm, chief of the storm troopers, was executed In the nazl blood purge June 30, 1934). Security of Coast Hangs On Asia War London, Jan. 7. fP) Chi nese Ambassador Wellington Koo said today that "the se curity and prosperity of the Pa cific coast if not of the whole United States were In no small measure bound up with the is sue of the battle of Asia." Speaking at a national de fense luncheon, he said that al though precautionary steps were being taken to provide an alter nate route to the Burma road, "the safety of the existing high way Is still Indispensable to the continuation of China's daunt less resistance." 1 WARD 2 Sensational Prices that include the JA : Federal Excise Tax Tax (nefvdeet , , 88 v-n Tag facfudW New Bat.
