Is MedfOrd
Backstepping?

Rather surprising that a city with
such reputation for progressive
movements as Medford should defeat
such an up-to-date charter as was
recently turned down by her citizens.
The general hard times throughout
the world have bred pessimists by
the score, but we are surprised to
see 1t going in on Medfordites. We
thought that town was the leader of
the live ones.

Federal Building
For Medf0rd

The contract for the new federal
building at Medford was Friday
awarded to the Sound Construction
Company Of Seattle for $95,SS1. The
contract provides that the building
shall be completed within sixteen
months.
With that sum being spent at Med
ford and the S175,OOO on the springs
project here during the summer, bus
mess should feel a decided stimulant.

LEGISLATURES
VOTES FOR DRY LAW

A bill to make Alabama a prohibit
tion state after June 80, 1916, was
passed by both houses of the legisla-
ture. Should Governor o'Neal dis
approve it, prohibition leaders say 1t
can be passed over his veto. The
vote was "a to 27 in the house and
26 to 9 in the senate. Governor
o'Neal will be succeeded Tuesday by
Charles Henderson, an avowed local
optionist.

Mistaken for deer by an unknown
hunter while himself hunting deer
out of season, Charles Thomason lies
dead at the Medford undertaking par
lors. He was killed Thursday.
According to the story of the faith
er, N. S. Thomason, the dead man
left their cabin in mid afternoon in
search of deer. 1t was agreed that
at 4 whistle the father should come
and help bring in the results of the
hunt. In half or three-quarters of
an hour the father heard four shots
Two of them we're together. Follow
ing these there was a prolonged
whistle, the agreed signal, and the
father started towards the sound. En-
route he heard another shot, fol-
lowed by a series of whistles that led
him to the spot. After an interval
he heard the last of the four shots,
and probably the one that killed his
boy.
About sixty rods from the family
cabin the body of the son was found,
and fifty feet away, down the hill
side, lay the two deer, one a fawn
and dressed, and the other a buck.
Both were fixed to carry. Life was
extinct when the father arrived.
Theory of Shooting.
The strongest supposition now ad-
vanced is that Thomson after kill
ing the two deer made his way to-
wards his cabin, his shots attracting
the attention of another hunter out
on the same illegal mission, who fol-
lowed in his wake, hoping to get a
shot at the flushed game or at a
fleeing wounded deer If Thomason's s
shots had failed to be effective.
Thomson in the meantime proceed
ed towards his cabin with his meat,
and when near home stopped to dress
the deer, and gave the call to his
aged parent.
While thus engaged, it is ad-
vanced, the unknown hunter came
upon him at distance and, mistak-
ing him for a deer, fired the third
shot heard by the father. Thomason,
realizing his danger, is presumed to
have sought safety from the open
spot where he was engaged, and
moved back towards protection. The
fourth shot of the unknown slayer
proved fatal, the bullet striking
Thomason in the right shoulder and
ranging downward through the lungs
and intestines.
Though the coroner's jury at the
inquest into the mysterious shooting
of Charles Thomson, on the north
fork of Anderson creek, Friday after
noon, returned a verdict that death
was caused by bullet wound fired
by an unknown person, the county
authorities are making further in
vestigation in the hopes of establish
ing the identity of the accidental
slayer, Premeditation does not fig
ure in the deductions, It being al
lowed that the dead man was mistak-
en- for a deer.

1t Isn't Your TOlOn--+Ks You

If you want to live in the kind of a town
Like the kind of town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in grip
And start a long, long hike
You'll find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really new
It's knock at yourself when you knock your town
1t isn't your town--it's YOU
Real towns are not made by men afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead.
When everyone works and nobody shirks
You raise town from the deed
And if while you make your personal stake
Your neighbor make one too
Your town will be what you want to see
1t isn't your town-it's YOU!

OPEN AIR SCHOOLS


The greatest benefit of the "open
air school, has been the object les
son it has furnished that all schools
could and should be fresh air
schools" When we learn that physi-
cally handicapped children with addi-
tional lunches and out-of-door school
rooms compete in scholarship with
physically robust children, it ought
to open our eyes to the possibilities
ahead of normal children with equal
opportunities.
When it was learned that sunshine,
fresh air, good food and rest cured
consumption, somebody conceived the
idea that these same agencies ought
to be good for the health of people
who had not yet contracted the dis
ease. If everybody realized and act
ed upon that logic consumption would
be rarer than it is.
Training detectives has elsewhere
taught us principles of training nor
you will recall developed her system
amongst mentally deficient children.
When, by her methods, these chill
dren who had started mentally nor
NAL, she argued logically that the
same methods ought to make sound
minded children jump through their
schooling.
The expression "a sound mind in
sound body" has been repeated SO
often that it has "lost its punch"
like an oath which has become a
habit. But shouldn't schools build
up children physically, or if not that
should they not at least refrain from
breaking them down?
When we all appreciate and act on
the fact that it is more intelligent
down in school than it is to partially
cure them after they have been
broken, another great gain will have
been made. For one thing it is ex-
ceedingly doubtful if anybody whose
health has been seriously damaged
is ever completely repaired.
Our children can be given most of
the advantages of an ut-of-door
school room by putting more clothes
upon them and opening wide a few
more windows.
Cold air is responsible for the
energy and ruggedness of northern
people. Why, then, should we dissi-
pate that advantage by raising the
temperature of our homes, offices
and schools to the heat and dryness
of the Sahara desert?

LAD|ES! SECRET TO
DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Bring back color, gloss and thickness
with Grandma's recipe of Sage
and Sulphur.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri-
ant; remove every bit of dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing
the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier way is
to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing
about so cents large bottle, at drug
stores, known as ''Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy thus avoiding a
lot of muss.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it
does it so naturally, SO evenly. You
just dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning all gray hairs have disappeared.
After another application or two your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant and you appear years
younger.

At no time since Ladysmith be-
came more than a hamlet has her
future been so bright as at the pres
ent time. Just as the bells are
about to ring out the old, ring in

railroad and the excellent prospects
of another, a long looked for "con-
summation devoutly to be wished
and with this comes information that
the South Muscatine Lumber COM
pany is negotiating for a site in this
city upon which to plant what prom
Uses to be Ladysmiths banner bus-
ness institution.
The plant of the Menasha Wooden
Ware Company is closed down for a
few weeks. 1t is now expected to
resume operations again about the
goth of the coming month. The close
down was partly for the purpose of
repairs and arrangements and in
part because the plant at MenaSha
is closed for inventory and unable
to conveniently receive stock from
the mills at Ladysmith. During the
suspension of operations here a 16-
foot extension is being made to the
smoke stack, on the top of which will
be 15-foot hood Or spark arrester.
When finished the smokestack will
be III feet high.

HE STUCK TO THE CLAIM


A homestead shack on the dreary
plain,
Shaken and pelted by wind and rain.
Deserted and windowless; Gone the
door,
Thru which glad voices will never
more
Be waited, out to the rose-decked
plain
For the homesteader will not come
again
Poverty, drouth, and much i'll luck,
Killed their gladness and Slapped their
pluck.
So the old shack stands on the
dreary plain,
Shaken and pelted by wind and rain.
A neighbor who lived just over the
line,
Almost starved IN the homesteader
time.
But he stuck to his claim through
thick and thin,
And Behold! Great riches have come
to him.
His shack is a farm house large and
wide,
With a huge red barn that stands
beside,
His granaries full; and the town folks
flock
To see his place and his pedigreed
stock
He looks sometimes at the lonely
shack
Across the line of the railway track
And wonders what came to the poor
old duck
Who might have been rich-had he
only stuck.-Sintehla.
