If you don't you must explain why you did not, and if you haven't a good reason to give the mayor, you receive a "did not vote" remark. This is entered for -five years on a "good conduct" certificate This would be like having to list traffic violations on a car license in the U.S. As over 90 per cent of the Italian voters are expected to go to the polls today Sun day, May 25, and. Monday, Reception Honors Medford Woman Mrs. Clayton Walker, Med ford, district deputy oracle of the Royal Neighbors of Amer ica, was honored at a recep tion given by Mistletoe camp May 28. Mrs. Walker will leave June 22 for Los Ange les to attend the supreme camp convention. The serving table was laid with a lace cloth and centered with an arrangement of pur ple and white Canterbury bells, these being the lodge colors. , Members from Central Point, Ashland and Jackson ville attended, and each camp presented Mrs. Walker gifts. She spoke briefly. Mrs. Le- nore Broili, Ashland, a past ttate supervisor, also spoke. Mrs. Carl Pearson, pro gram chairman, presented Mrs. Frank Ward of Central Point who sang, the Jackson ville camp presented a stunt imitating the television pro gram, "To Tell the Truth." Mrs. Floyd Bewley played piano selections. . The serving committee was Mrs. Thomas Mee, Mrs. Bew ley, Mrs. Pearl Miller and Miss Blanche Arnold. Dartmoor, perhaps the best- known of all British mow lands, covers 200 square miles. Annual Banquet Held Last Night The annual mother-daugh ter banquet of Zion Lutheran church was held last evening at First Methodist church. Mrs. Bruce Braaten was toast- mistress. The invocation was given by Mrs. Irven litreim. Mrs. William Gates presented awards to the oldest grand mother present, Mrs. Carl Fiehtner; youngest mother, Mrs. Floyd Pawlowski, and to the youngest daughter, Ellen Nunley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Nunley. Mrs. Bennett Austin pre sented life membership awards to Mrs. Augusta Moore, who wss a member of Zion Lutheran church's first confirmation class, to Kirs. Lillian Twite and Mrs. Wen dell Mattson. Mrs. William Gates accepted the award on behalf of Mrs. Moore, who was unable to attend. Miss Verna Cingcede, Bible instructor in the county pub lie schools, presented an ob ject lesson. ' A group of Methodist wom en assisted with the banquet. May 26, it must work. Returns will not be in until Wednes day, night, and because of the complexities of the election laws, the actual results will not be known before June. The entire process of vot ing is quite different from that in the states. There are no primaries; the Senate and Chamber seat elections are separate. Minimum age for voting is 21, but to vote for senators, a person must be 25. Many candidates run for both Senate and Chamber. There is no limit to the num ber of constituencies in which a candidate may present him self. Here are some of the laws covering Italian voting: Persons - or organizations caught giving gifts in the week before elections are subject to jail terms up to five years, and fines, up to $3,200. A person, threatening his relatives or family, to influ ence voting, is subject to a five year jail term. Sale of alcohol is banned on election day. Persons voting under false names are given sentences. Election frauds, for influ encing voting a certain way, are punished by jail terms. One law forbids anyone to carry sticks into the polling booths. And to protect state prop erty, voters not returning pen cils given to mark their bal lots are fined 3000 lira or $5. Elaborate precautions are taken to insure order inside and out. Anyone disturbing the polls is given five year jail terms. Religious ministers, public officials or other persons in public office trying to force voters to support a certain candidate gets up to three years jail term. Bsllots ' are compiled in screened booths like the U.S., and handed sealed, to vote tellers. Two representstives of each party check on the tellers' work. Today is quiet in Rome. The noise of campaigning is over, the tons of leaflets hsve been swept away, and not knowing that thousands of voters are deciding whether Italy will be Christian Demo cratic or . Communistic, one would think it is an ordinary Sunday. ' Jaycettes Session To Be Wednesday Medford Jaycettes will meet in the home of Mrs. Arthur Van Leeuwen, 1110 West Ninth street, tomorrow eve ning at t p.m. This will be a work meeting in preparation for a coming rummage show; members are asked to bring their rummage for the show and casual dress is in order.

Men Make Better Antique Collectors New York (UPI) Men make better antiques collec tors because they don't bargain-hunt as women do, says one dealer. "It takes a man longer to make up his mind to buy a particular object," said Mrs. Mary Muller, one of 125 ex hibitors in the New York An tiques Fair. "But in the end he will get 4 a really good piece of antique pewter, sil ver or furniture because he will pay more. . "The average woman an tiques enthusiast has quanti ty rather than quality as her goal. She'll gather every pa perweight or miniature glass slnoper. she can find and put them on display, whereas a man will collect only tha baft examples in hie field of in terest.
