Eaglet Auxiliary Schedule Meeting Ladies' Auxiliary of Eagles will hold a regular business meeting, Thursday at 7:30 p. m. - Members are asked to note the cnange m meeting time irom o to 7:30 p. m. It Takes More Thau Rules WHEN they raise the Hag at morning or lower it at eventide, they do it reverently as if the regiment were stand ing at attention and the band were playing the Star Spangled Banner. So writes a Los An geles man in appreciation of the salesmen at a nearby Stand ard Station. This causes a warm feeling in our corporate breast. But it is necessary to pass on the credit to the men who deserve it the boys themselves. Standard Stations, of course, have rules concerning the handling of the Flag. But you cannot create reverence by routine. Rules can only formalize a respect already felt. Happily, Standard is staSed throughout its many depart ments by Americans who have an ingrained love of the Flag and the Republic for which it stands. Today they are in the war every one. Yet in rimes of peace they have always proved the home-building, nation building type. They're the kind who support churches, libraries, schools America. Our pride is that Standard has always attracted such peo ple to its employ. That is some thing which could not have happened unless our policies and methods reflected the basic purpose of this Nation fair treatment for everyone. That, too, is more than a rule. It is an inner reality. Standard Oil Company of California Garden Club Plans Annual Flower Exhibit C. V. Conley of the Conley Blossom Farm at Eugene will feature a demonstration exhibit of types of narcissi and spring flowering bulb blossoms at the Spring Flower show sponsored Saturday by the Medford Gar den club at Hotel Holland. One division of the show will be devoted to speciman exhibits and one to flower arrangements featuring daffodils alone or other bulbous flowers. Garden clubs of the county and individ uals wishing to do so are invited to make entries. The show will be non-competitive and will be open to the public from 11:15 a. m. until 10 p. m. Entries are to be entered between 8:30 and 10:30 a. m. Garden club members sug gest that exhibitors choose well developed flowers. As a daffo dil sometimes takes several days to develop its typical form, partly opened, buds may be cut today and brought into a warm room so they will be ready by Saturday. Exhibitors are asked to know their own varieties and see that they choose a typical mature form. Daffodil arrangements may feature daffodils alone or with other flowers. Interesting ar rangements can be secured by using miscellaneous spring flow ering bulbous blossoms. Exhib itors are asked to place their name on the bottom of their flower container. Announcement is made of the marriage of Miss Marjorie Signs McHugh, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter S. McHugh of Tacoma, Wash., and Charles H. Paske, Jr., son of Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Paske of this city. The ceremony was read February 28 at the navy chapel by the navy chaplain in Pensacola, Fla. They will make their home in Warrington, Fla., for the time being. Mr. Paske gradu ated from Medford high school and has been in the U. S. navy for the past four years as a radio man, second class. At present he is being instructed in flying at Pensacola and recently com pleted his ground work with the air corps. t Portland Wheat Portland.
