streets and gave short open air con-
cert in front of the Armory before
the meeting opened.
c. NJ. Thomas of Talent was un-
able to be present on account of be-
ing engaged with an entertainment
there that evening. He sent word
that Talent would form an organiza-
tion there and raise fund for the
campaign. This news was received
with enthusiasm.
Prof. Van Scoy brought out the
purple and gold scarf that was hand
ed down from one graduating class
to another and explained the cere-
mony. He also reviewed the fortunes
of the classes turned out and the
work of students that did not gradu-
ate. One boy of special interest to
the professor was Harvey Inflow of
the class of V6. Inflow was raised
on Trail creek in the most remote
country district in Jackson county
and at the eighth grade examina-
tions stood at the head of the county.
He was solicited to become a student
at the Normal and when graduated
was elected to the Pleasant Hill
school in Lane county, then principal
of a Cottage Grove school, then su-
perintendent of the schools there,
then superintendent of the city
schools at Forest Grove, the seat of
one of the strongest of the indepen-
dent universities in the northwest
The professor thought the class of
| '06 made the best showing afterward
as we'll as being the largest class
turned out. His remarks showed the
far-reaching work that results from
the operP ton OF normal school
work that cannot be estimated at the
time but which when accounted for
as the years accumulate tells its story
in fact with more emphasis than the
imagination will reveal.
The Alumni association held a sec
tion of the audience and delivered
the familiar war whoops of the old
school, led by President Fred C.
Homes. Jr., with the old class scarf
in hand.
= The address of DR.. Rebec certainly
put faith in the cause in the heart of
the most Doubling Thomas in the
congregation and renewed the en-
thusiasm of all those who know for
a certainty that the people of Oregon
can be made to understand the virtue
of an educational campaign and the
necessity for a normal school in
Southern Oregon.

Ashland or anywhere else in southern
Oregon has nothing to gain in
financial way BY moving down this
way just now. You can perhaps
make more there, being established,
and with acquaintance, but If you
can't you can live on a lot less and
with greater comfort at the same
time. And times will be better there
this spring and summer, am sure.
They are due and they will come.
not with rush perhaps, but improv-
ing. There are a great many things
here that are all right, but they
haven't a stream like your Ashland
creek in all southern California nor
a park as pretty naturally, nor the
fruit, berries, and all that sort of
thing from all those growers around
there"

Commercial Club Committee
Progressing With Springs

The Commercial Club committee in
charge of the Ashland mineral
springs development campaign re-
ports negotiations under way for the
services of an expert or experts who
will supply it with necessary informa-
tion as to the qualities OF the waters
it now has under option and the prop
er methods of handling them.
The committee has gone as far as
it can with its work. II has devel-
oped and secured options on springs
which 1t has every reason to believe
will supply in abundance waters of
every variety known to this locality
-lithia, sulphur, soda iron, etc.
The next step is to have an accurate
analysis of these and to know to an
absolute certainty what can be done
with them in the way of piping, etc.
In this regard citizens generally
will agree with the committees idea
that the best authority Is none too
good. II the waters are to be piped
in at public expense the public must
know absolutely that they are worth
1t and that the proper methoda are
used. II is not n matter in which
guesswork can be tolerated. With
this idea the committee will secure
the services of the best expert the
country affords and will also avail
itself OF experts in the employ OF the
great railway systems which would
naturally be Interested in seeing
great resort city built up here.
While negotiations are under way
the committee will be busy getting
the various properties under option
in shape for inspection. They have
already occasioned much labor but
give great promise-being traced and
walled to bedrock. Their actual
qualities are not yet known but they
are believed to have about all the
goods" for which the old Tolman
springs are famous.
The lithia spring on the Murphy
place needs much work in the way OF
excavation, retaining walls and road
way to make II accessible. The land
above this spring gives forth hob

Fishing and Spring Here.

Spring is evidenced on every hand.
The balls and bats are coming into
use and the fishermen are alive. The
run of fish in the numerous streams
of Jackson county is fine and the
boys are having the sport of their
lives. The rain of last week muddied
the water but little and it is clear
again.
Fish stories are being told on
every hand. Buck Danford relates
how he landed twenty a few days
ago, but the boys say he didn't pro-
duce the evidence. G. w. Hake re-
ports fine catch of steelheads.
Newt Harrison says he landed five
nice ones, while Claud Sanders and
Art Shepherd made good strings.
Will Permission says the run" of
agates are good. He was out recent
ly and made some good finds.

Horticultural Commissioner Carson
has written as follows to County IN

"Mr. j. w. Myers, County Fruit In
spector Central Pc:nr, Ore
Dear Sir: In about SIX weeks tie
blooming period for pears will be
here. 1t is very important that y1u,
with your deputies cover every tree
in the valley with careful inspec-
ton for blight germs before the
blooming period arrives, so that
every holdover or blight canker be
removed. IL would be remarkable
with the most painstakinB inspection
that every holdover ia tho valley
could be found and removed, al
though am sure you and your force
has done painstaliing york
Il wish you would impress on the
minds of the orchard man Of Tack
son county the necessity of their
earnest cooperation in aiding you
in every way they can TO make ;his
inspection thorough.
I'VE know the source of spring
infection from the blight comes from
these holdover or cankers, and no
one can be more interested in see
ing that the source of infection is
removed than the owners of the or
chards.
Instruct the growers that when
the blooming period arrives you will
expect the owners to patrol their or
chards every day during the bloom
ing period, SO that should they note
any blossom blighting that at once
they cut out the diseased parts and
hunt up the source of the holdover.
you can say to the growers
should they neglect this detail, that
under the law 1t will be my duty to
declare orchards so diseased a pub
lie nuisance, and destroy the same
The law will warrant me in being
drastic, and | feel it is duty | owe
those who do give honest co-opera-
tion to the eradication of the blight
every protection the law can give
them, as against their negligent
neighbors who fail to cooperate with
you, and thereby carelessly neglect
, the disease and permit it to infect
again. Yours truly,

five numbers in the assembly room
of the school, making a great hit
Usually Professor Draper leads the
band with his cornet, but he sup
posed that it was in the case with
his music until he reached the high
school, when he found it had been
left at the theatre, and they were
obliged to play without him, which
they did In good shape.
They are fine musicians and won
hearty applause from the school, the
school under the leadership of Leroy
Ashcraft giving them three cheers
when they left.
One of the songs given, THE Base
ball song" proved them bunch of
rooters which make Billie Briggs
and Leroy Ashcraft's bunch look like
fifteen coppers.
At the Dreamland in the evening
they played to a crowded house and
gave excellent satisfaction, the en-
tertainment being one continuous
laugh.
Edward Castine, son of DR.. Cas-
tine, a former occulist here, is a
member of the troop, and Viola Ut
terback, niece of DR.. Utterback, the
chiropractor of this city, is also with
them.

jolly Entertainers Are
Happy Crowd Of Riddles

The Jolly Entertainers, who ap-
peared at Dreamland Theatre last
evening, are a jolly crowd of young
sters when off the stage as we'll as
when in costume and entertaining
the public.
The entire troop is made up of
children from the Children's Home
at Des Moines, Wash. They number
"a on the road out of 43 now in the
home.
The home is remarkable in that it
receives no aid from state, county
or charitable institutions. While
friendly contributions are not re-
fused, the main reliance is upon the
earnings of the children and school.
At their home they have their own
printing office, the postcards and
small advertising of the troop being
produced there. They also do con-
siderable printing for the business
men of Tacoma and Seattle.
While here the kiddies were nearly
all entertained by various citizens
and enjoyed Jolly good time. They
are remarkably healthy and happy
lot and appear to dearly love "Doddy'
and Mother" as they call Superin-
tendent and Mrs. Draper
In the afternoon they were taken

Will Ashland back up the Normal
School Association Campaign? The
reports point that way. The two
committees appointed for Belleview
have only received one rundown and
hand running signed up 80 member
ships right off the bat. That makes
5000 on the face of it without count
ing the moral influence that this
spirit will contribute to organized
work. That is not all. The matter
of boosting the campaign was men
toned to the school children attend
ing Belleview's two-room school
house and they went home and told
their folks and surprised everybody
by returning with collection from
their own little savings that amount
ed to $40. This kind of spirit counts
more than the finances and augurs
we'll for the success of the workers.
A thermometer will be set up in the
plaza and after the committees make
their first report it will show the
steady progress of the membership
up to the ninth day of March, on
which date the organization will be
perfected by the election of officers
by those signing up memberships.
The thermometer idea was suggested
by those who have a scientific curl
osity and tendency to want to know
how the community pulse is beating.
Ashland wants the state normal
school re-established and the friendly
rivalry Tuesday evening shows that
both sides of town desire it. The
funny contest of "sides" of town
boosting was introduced as a feature
for the purpose of having an argu-
ment. The results were. about even
ly divided. The West Side sold the
most tags and the East Eide noscd
them out in attendance.
The musical program consisted OF
singing by the Siskiyou quartet and
a cornet solo by A. ]. McCalleI:. who
was accompanied by Miss Ruby
Palmer on the piano. The Boys vo.
