Will no doubt be able to make profit
on the garden stuff which they can
raise, which will pay them many
times for the labor which will be re-
Quired.
All who have such lots and who
will let the ladies of the committee
know of their willingness to con-
tribute the space will be doing a SER
vice both to themselves and to the
city.
This same idea has been used else
where as a solution of the unem-
ployed problem. Hundreds of vacant
lots have been turned over to the
poor in New York city and will keep
many families out of the poorhouse.
The Civic Club ladies will organize
a childrens market at which the
young gardeners can dispose of their
produce, should a sufficient number
of vacant lot gardens be started,

Civic Improvement
T. Club Meeting

The Civic improvement Club met
at the library rooms Tuesday after
noon with fine attendance. 1t was
moved and passed that the club
should buy 1000 postcards, have the
slogan printed upon them and have
them put on sale at local stores. The
club will also purchase a number of
tin pennants upon which the slogan
will be printed. These will be used
upon automobiles.
A letter of thanks from the rail-
road officials who passed through
last week, thanking the ladies for the
flowers which were presented to the
car, was read.
1t was decided to hold a flower
show in the fall Plans for such a
show were discussed.
The schoolboys have consented to
make window boxes and baskets
which the ladies will undertake to
sell. Orders for boxes or baskets
should be given to Mrs. Bowers or
Mrs. USHER, who have the matter in
charge. All who have a place for
such will do we'll to order one or
more as they will be artistically built
and will be sold for cost. The eight
foot boxes will cost $50, the six-foot
boxes $1.20 and the baskets from IS
cents to 81. A prize will be offered
for the best box turned out by the
high school lads.
The matter of turning vacant lots
over to the school children was en-
Enthusiastically talked over and action
taken as reported elsewhere.
The ladies wish to announce that
they still have a number of trees,
roses and few shrubs left and that
those who have plants and bulbs to
exchange or who wish any should call
at the Oak street exchange.

Militia Will Go to
Coast Fort in June

Adjutant General White, who re-
places General Finer in command of
the Oregon state militia, was in the
city Tuesday evening. Captain Col
Inns came up from Medford Monday
afternoon and conducted the month
ly work. On Tuesday the evening
was devoted to officers school.
The dates for. the annual encamp-
ment have been tentatively set for
June 16 to o. The encampment this
year, while it has always been a
looked-forward-to event by the mill
tia boys, will be especially lively ow-
ing to the great crowds which will
stop over in Flavell, which is only
about half mile from the camp, to
catch the Great Northern steamships
which dock there.
The encampment this year will be
the customary instruction school ait
the big forts at the mouth of the CO.
lumbia and will be conducted much
the same as last year. Formal an
nouncement of the encampment dates
will be made the first of the month.
The members of the local organiza-
tions of the coast artillery had great
hopes of being allowed to go to San
Francisco to take part in extensive
maneuvers there during the exposi-
tion. Strong efforts were made by
the heads of the coast artillery
branch of the state troops to be al
lowed to make the trip. 1t was point
ed out that the expense of transport
ing the troops of this state to the
exposition city would be nothing, as
the terms of the grant given the rail
way company by the government
when it built it's line from Oregon to
California were that all troops were
to be hauled free of charge, but the
department has ordered otherwise.

A Musical Treat
At ArmOry Tuesday

1t is with pleasure we announce
the coming Of the First Methodist
Episcopal choir of Medford, to give
Stainer's beautiful and inspiring ora
torio, THE CrucifiXion," next Tues
day at the armory. This choir is
conceded to be one of the best in the
state. Both the choral and solo work
will equal what is usually heard in
the largest cities, and rare musical
treat is in store for all who attend.
Both the church and musical ele-
ments of Ashland will no doubt take
advantage of this opportunity of
hearing this splendid organization in
this high-class musical work, depict
ing with great vividness Christ's last
days on earth.

Peg o. My Heart
Wins Much Praise

The irresistible comedy, peg o.
My Heart" Mt the Vining Theatre
Monday evening was unanimously
voted the best production which has
yet appeared at the local theatre, by
the good-sized crowd which enjoyed
the inimitable Peggy and her wonder
full acting.
While Peggy O'Neil in the leading
role was undoubtedly the one big
star of the evening, the other mem
bers of the company were all excel
lent actors and all received their
need of praise from the critics in the
audience.
1t was not the depth of the plot or
its newness which gave the play such
an appeal, but the pluck and charac-
ter Of the leading character which ap-
peaIed to the maternal instinct of the
audience and made Pegs battles the
battles.
Pegs art had the audience on the
verge OF tears at one instant and
the house with laughter the
next Her acting is real acting. She
put her heart into every gesture and
every word and won the heart of her
hearers from her first appearance.
or the other parts none are built
to appeal and afford a contrast to
Pegs lovely character. All OF the
supporting company are experienced
and handled their parts well.

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send for Brooks
Rupture Appliance

l.. IL is absolutely the only Appliance Of
the Kind on the market today, and in il are
embodied the principles that inventors have
sought after for years.
2 The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out OF position.
B. Being an air cushion of soft rubber
II clings closely 70 the body, yet never
blisters or causes irritation.
a; Unlike the ordinary so-caled pads,
used in other trusses. it is not cumber-
some OF ungainly.
5. It is small, soft and piiabie. and
positively cannot be detected through the
clothing
6. The soft, pliable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleasant
sensations OF wearing harness.
Z. There is nothing about IL 20 get foul
aud when IL becomes soiled IL can be
washed without iniuring Il in the least.
8. There are no metal springs in the
Appliance TO torture one by cutting and
bruising the flesh.
.. All Of the material Of which the Ap.
pliAnces are made IS Of the very best that
money can buy, making II durable and safe
Appliance to wear.
TO- Ny reputation for honesty and fair
dealing is so thoroughly established by an
| experience Of over thirty years Of dealing

enable, my terms so fair, that there certainly
