sical recital was most pleasingly and
creditably rendered by the pupils of

a time.
Those on the program were: Ell
bert Greer, Inola Scott, Genevieve
Swedenburg, Margaret Johnson,

Football enthusiasts will be hand
ed real treat when the A. H. S.
Braves and the Medford high Tigers
are turned loose in Ashland's arena
Saturday, November IA, Those who
have followed the Braves rampage
so far this season are of the unani-
nous opinion that the Braves of 1914
are far superior in every department
than all of the championship elevens
of the past, any Of which every rooter
may justly be proud. Not that the
Braves possess the individual stars
that so prominently decorated the
roster of former Crimson and
White" elevens, but the yare a unit
as football machine" The Med
ford eleven also plays machine foot
ball, but, what is more, is made up
of individual players blessed with
more than ordinary ability and high
school class. Take a few stars like
Pelouse, Seeley and Vance, all oi
whom are eleven second men, miS
them in with such plungers and dead
ly tacklers as Brown, Thomas and
Plymail, add the punting of Hill and
drop kicking of Pelouse, and show
any sane person the high school elev-
en- of even more than first division
caliber which will, beat them. Mr.
Moore, Medford's coach, halls from
Illinois normal. where he rounded
out four-year career as quarterback
on the greatest elevens the institu
tion ever boasted, and this same
Moore was the principal cog, the mas.
ter mind, in their workings. He has
taken Medford's demoralized squad
of last year and whipped them into
far superior eleven than the ole
guard made up principally of RAIDER
Scoggins, Ware, Beveridge, Melon
aid, Burgess and the rest who con
tinually insisted upon drubbing tht
A. H. S. boys at Ashland. Also Med
ford followers are backing their team

Vote Of the People

ect contend that the proposed char

that no bonds of any kind or any
amount can be issued EXCEPT BY

five local people, under the direction

theatricals. The Elks Quartet will

solo or two interspersed. The play

bowling farce, laughable in every
detail. Mr.. Watson as the Congress-
man, elected against his WILL real

rancher so out of place in Washing

his daughter, Bossey, carries her
audience with a whirl of unaffected
good-fellowship. j. A. Graham
plays Capt. Fairleigh Bright with
the straight shoulders of the trained
soldier and attempts to teach the
whole family the tricks of society
with a failure and a quarrel with
his sweetheart as the result. Mr..
Purdin is Brassey Gall, a man of
quick wits and crooked politics, who
becomes Mr.. Brander's right hand
man. Lynn Mowat as Christopher
Columbus Fishback, a colored poll
tician, promises good comedy. por-

Pauline Proves
Great Success

The operetta Pauline, which was
put on at the Vining Theatre Monday
evening under the direction of Mrs.
Marie Christian Watkins, proved to
be great success, and the audience
was very much pleased. While there
was not as big crowd as the pro-
duction merited, yet those that were
there seemed very appreciative. The
whole play spoke we'll for the ability
of Mrs. Watkins
The curtain rose on the grand
opening chorus, Hail the Morning" I"
and the effect was very pleasing.
Mrs. Norris, who took the part of
Pauline, was exceptionally good, both
in her gestures, stage presence and
singing. Lloyd Stratton, as Faber
the journalist, was a real star in the
way in which he handled his part.
Miss Priscilla Carnehan received
much applause also. Her perfect
ease on the stage, combined with a
splendid voice, made her much appre-
ciated by the audience, and made her
stand out as being something more
than novice. Helen Cunningham
took her part as Maine in an accom-
plished way. Kenneth Cunningham
as Shady. little darky, drew laugh
ter and applause from the spectators.
Miss Nellie Briggs and Harrison How
ell, as an old maid and weather.
worn professor who are much in love,
took well with their hearers. All the
other parts were fine. The ong,
Evening Bells" was very beautiful
because of it's perfect rendition and
sweet harmony.
Others that handled principal parts
were: d. d. Norris, NJ. E. Briggs,
H. o. Purucker, Paul Williams, Billie
Briggs, Lynn Mowat, Miss Ruth
Brown, Arthur Graham, Roy s. Hale
Mrs. C.. b. Wolf, l.. f. Stennett and
Mrs. Stuart. Mrs. Drake, the accom-
panist, is to be congratulated on her
skill and faithfulness during practice.
Miss Florence Clark was the violin
accompanist.
Mrs. Watkins and all members OF
the cast are to be congratulated upon
the operetta. 1t is hoped that Mrs
Watkins has found sufficient encour-
agement to start her conservatory.
