and rooming bouses ara wonder
ing how they will be hle to
take care of all tha people who
will be streaming into little old
Med ford to spend a portion of
the holidays with their sons and
brothers, and other relatives
stationed at Camp White.
Citizens are being urged to
take in the visitor If at all pos
sible, because there Just won't
be room for everybody In the
public hostelries. Of course a
lot of the Camp White boys will
.have furloughs and go home for
Christmas, but far more won t
end their relatives will come
here to see them.
Incidently, Camp White is
filling up rapidly. Every night
the streets of Medford ara jam
med with soldiers. Its a military
secret as to just how many
troops are at the camp now, but
suffice It to say thera ara thous
ands.

Speaking of Crater Lake re
minds us that the new Crater

Big-Y market on the north
Pacific highway, has been open
ed to traffic. It is 9 miles long
and stretches to Antelope Creek
in the Camp White area, where
It Joins tha old Crater Lake high
way. It is a little shorter than
the old road, and much better In
all respects.
We had a mock attack drill
here the other night. All the air
raid wardens, auxiliary police
and other persons connected with
the civilian defense effort swung
quickly Into action, and the
drill was declared to have been
a complete success.
After Sheriff Syd I. Brown
warned that his office and the
state police would rigidly en
force the new 35-mile per hour
speed limit, thera was a notable
decline In the number of cars
seen traveling over that rate.
That Medford' population has
increased over that of last year
can be seen In tha attendance
