1 On THe Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Futures Syndicate, Inc.) I think true love is never blind But rather brines an added light An inner vision quick to find The beauties hid irom common sight. No soul can ever clearlv see Another's highest noblest part: Save through the sweet philosophy And loving wisdom of the heart. Phoebe Cary How many immediate relativ es have you? How much of your income is annually utilized for presents and entertainment of these relatives? Can you top Bin nie Barnes, the actress? Binnie is one of a family of 16 children, all living. One of Binnie's mar ried sisters has 14 children. An other ha 12. That will give you an idea of what Binnie's Christ mas present list must be. Then, of course there are the birthday and wedding presents. And the baby showers! Asking Queries from clients. Q. What is the height of the Duke of Ed inburgh, husband of Queen Eliz abeth?

That remarkable aggregation did not have a .300 batter among its regulars. The team batting average was .228; yet in 1906 the "Hitless Won ders" won the American League pennant and defeated the Chica go Cubs in the World series. Sidelights About 90 per cent of the men you see walking Pekinese dogs after dark are over six feet in height. Why is it that women who have the smallest dogs al ways have the largest husbands? - . .

Virgo (Aug. 24-Sept. 23) husbands are clever business men, good providers, entertain ing conversationalists, loyal and considerate but somewhat chilly as to affection. They need much warming up. Only a red-haired Scorpio woman can really in spire a Virgo to intense affection. Or so say the stargazers. Asidei How high is a mountain?

Heinz of Pittsburgh was riding on a New York City elevated train when he saw a sign reading: "Twenty one Styles of Shoes." The idea of a stock of wide variety appealed to Hein as did the way it was publicized. And from that sign in New York he received the in spiration for his world famous slogan- "Fifty-Seven Varieties."

Republican Candidates For District Attorney Friday, May 11, 1938 MECFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE m - lis ,, Y , ft1?!' f OK MARKET 1202 North Riverside 1 1 OPEN EVERY J $v NIGHT 'TIL m fSfe MIDNIGHT WALTER NUNLEY We are pleased that Walter D. Nunley, the present District At torney of Jackson county, will be a candidate to succeed himself for another term. We feel that Mr. Nunley has done a good job over the past three years in a difficult position. The office of District Attorney is bound at best to be somewhat controversial, for the task of the D.A. is to enforce the laws as they are written, in accordance with the intent and purposes thereof. That sometimes involves interpretation of laws by the D.A. There will always be some people who will resent any en forcement of any law which af fects them. In spite of these fac tors, Mr. Nunley has made many more friends than he has ene mies during his three years in office, and more importantly he has given the people of Jackson county prompt and effective law enforcement. It is our sincere belief that he has been and will continue to be completely honest in his con duct of personal and official af fairs, impartial in listening to and handling complaints and prosecutions, and courteous to and cooperative with those who call upon the services of his of fice. Further, that he is not, and has not been and will not be tied to any special interest group, and that he has done and will continue to do his earnest best to enforce all the laws of the State of Oregon to the limit that the time and personnel and funds of his office permit. His character, judgment, human un derstanding and abilities are of such a nature as to merit his re tention in this office.

The TOY House 317 EAST MAIN ST. GEORGE RODE I respectfully submit to the voters of this county my candi dacy for the Republican nomina tion to the office of District At; torney. My qualifications for the position are: Master of Arts de gree in English Language and Literature at Columbia univer sity, law degree from Columbia I university, five years practice of law in Massachusetts, five and one-half years practice of law here in Medford. One basic issue is before you: the incompetency of the district attorney. This "incompetency has had these direct effects upon you and your community: One: Higher taxes. Incompe tency costs money. The present district attorney, in public state ments on April 26 and 27, 1956, said:" "The budget of the district attorney's office for this county has increased approximately 400 per cent during the past three years. I've been very proud of that fact." These are the present district attorney's word, not mine. These are his sentiments, not mine. I support wholeheartedly the Republican philosophy of econ omy in government, which we have seen so ably demonstrated on the national level; and I be lieve that this philosophy of economy is equally important to our county government. Here is how your money has been wasted: One J. P. Cating was paid $2,800 from July 10, 1953 to Sept. 12, 1953, out of county funds, for "investiga- tions," at the district attorney's request. For two and one-half years the district attorney made no public mention at all of these "investigations." On April 26, 1956, the district attorney stated the J. B. Cating was an alias for one Walter Jeffries, a private de tective. The district attorney said that Jefferies, alias Cating, made a "crime survey" here, and sub mitted a written report to the district attorney, for which he was paid $2,800 from county funds. ' j This report has been seen only , by the district attorney and a i small group of private indivi duals. Our regular law enforce ment officers, juvenile office, and other public agencies have never seen this report, and no ! indictments have resulted from it. For your $2,800 you have re ceived nothing. Two: . Chaotic and haphazard enforcement of our criminal laws. The district attorney's in ability to convict defendants, or even to charge them properly, is a matter of record, and has been fully reported in this newspaper. His last failure occurred less than a month ago State vs. Aikens. The most shocking crime in re cent years, the Hile killing, re sulted in the murder trial of Jen sen. This trial was handled by an outside prosecutor, whom the district attorney hired to do his own jot) and who was paid $2, 034.51 out of county funds. Three: Undermining the ac cused civil liberties. In an at tempt to cover up these short comings, I believe the District Attorney has tended to deprive suspects of their constitutional rights. Your vote for me in the Repub lican primaries will be a vote to end this incompetency, and to restore the office of district at torney to a position of efficiency and respect. tremely valuable experience be hind him in the conduct of the affairs of the office of District At torney, and the residents of Jack son county now have a chance to avail themselves of that exper ience by retaining Mr. Nunley in office. We feel that he is well qualified to continue in this of fice, and we earnestly hope that he will be so continued in office by the voters of Jackson county in the coming elections: NUNLEY FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY COMMITTEE Al Bradford (Medford) Fred Bruegger (Eagle Point) John R.
