Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1914-11-26

The Ashland high school football
team left yesterday evening for The
Dalles, where they will try to again
sweep the gridiron in northern terri
tories, with as much success as they
met with in southern Oregon. This
occurrence makes Ashland glad, and
1t makes them sad-glad because the
team will get the fine trip and adver-
tise southern Oregon and Ashland,
and sad because they will not have
a Thanksgiving game to aid in the
digestion of their dinners.
The game won from the Medford-
ties last Saturday crushed all hopes
of Medford's future in the athletic
line. This year their team, they
thought, was the apex of all that
could be desired, but, alas, they got
pummeled and ground in the dirt un-
til with a score of 10 to 0 they left
the field in ignominy
In keeping with Ashland's fame in
football here came an urgent demand
for their presence at The Dalles
there to play the big Thanksgiving
game. The Dalles high school is one

Not Muzzled

In harmony with the recent Board
of Health decree as to dogs, the city
council last night passed a drastic
dog ordinance, which is printed in
this issue of the Tidings.

muzzled in Ashland or confined, Any
unmuzzled dog running at large,
either in streets or on private prop
erty, will be shot on sight, unless
having a 1914 licnese tag, when it
will be impounded. If the owner re-
deems the dog within twenty-four
hours and pays Sc, and muzzles or
confines the dog, it will not be
killed; otherwise it will be.
After tomorrow unmuzzled dogs
will be killed on sight by the police
anywhere in the city, under above
conditions.

Would Extend
The City Limits

The city council passed on an
amendment, to be presented to the
people at the December 18th election,
at the Tuesday nights meeting. 1t
will provide for the extending of the
citys limits 800 feet near the Billings
place in order to take in people who
have been using city water and pay
ing city taxes since time immemorial.
1t was only recently when the limits
were surveyed by City Engineer Wal
ker and the mistake was discovered.
The city council cut out II. B. War
ren, who asked for use OF the city
water on his orchard. The council
did not think that the rest OF the
water users should be Inconvenience
because of one place, and cut his
orchard out of the proposed extension
Of the city limits.

terms of four years each. He says
that he wishes to retire and take life

Vining Has
New Attraction

The film run at the Vining Theatre
last night was one of the finest ever
seen by the people of Ashland and
was liked by some even better than
The Spoilers. 1t was a play that was
local in interest and remarkably clear
in detail. Some of the most beauti-
full scenes and exciting occurrences
were depicted.
But yet another treat is in store,
this to be presented to the public
along about holiday season. This
will be a series called Zudora, play
that is intensely thrilling and logical.
The story will be run in the Tidings
each week as the films are run at the
Vining.
Thanksgiving afternoon at 3
o'clock Home, Sweet Home will be
featured There will be the usual
programs in the evening as well.
