Medford Mail Tribune; The vic
tory of Medford in the football game
with Ashland Thanksgiving day may
be attributed to the work of Coach
Otto Klum of the local high school
In the matter of material in the raw,
Ashland had, at the first of the
season, little the better of Medford.
AS the season progressed, Klum,
through consistent hard work, put
his men into the best of condition
and impaired surety and smooth
ness to their play such as is seldom
seen in the teams of any but the
largest city high schools. Klum was
formerly coach of the Ashland team
and under his tutelage the Ashland
aggregation easily walked away from
Medford. With the coming to Med
ford of Klum the tables have been
reversed.

Have you visited the exhibit of
children's books at the library? 1t
will be open all this week and at
tendants will give advise on the pur-
chase of children's books. The ex-
hibit comes as the result of a nation
wide Good Books Week."
The movement inaugurated last
year for better books for children
will be observed this season Decem-
Der to December 8.
Good Books Week" originated
through the Boy Scouts of America
and at the annual meeting of the
American Booksellers Association in
1915 the following resolution was
passed.
Resolved, That the association
approve the suggestion of the Boy
Scouts of America for a countrywide
canvass for better books for children,
both by the cooperation of special
week in November and by an offer
on our part to raise the standard OF
children's reading, as offered by our
stores and by the publishers.
Later the plan was commended by
the American Library Association,
and last year good results were
achieved through Juvenile Book
Week" 1t was supported by a num-
ber of leading magazines. An edi-
torial in the Saturday Evening Post
stated so well the problem of the
modern boys reading thar it is worth
while to quote few sentences:
What a boy reads is as important
as anything else about him. You try
to protect him from depraved asso-
Citations of flesh and blood but pret-
ty often you make little enough eff
fort to protect him from depraved
associations in print.
Time was when you could tell a
wrong book for a boy because it was
bound in yellow paper and sold for
a dime. Nowadays many wrong
books for boys are most respectfully
bound in cloth. And they are per-
fectly mOral, in the narrowest sense
of that abused word. They describe
how fourteen-year-old boy, with a
leaky wash-boiler and two dollars in
cash, built submarine that destroy
ed the enemy's fleet; how a lad in
knee breeches circumvented a gang
of desperate criminals and so be.
came president of railroad at six.
teen.
These tales of preposterous ju
venlie achievement are depraved be,
cause they are monstrous lies. They
do not stimulate boys imagination
they drug it. They do not set hi
imagination usefully at work, bu
send it off in a weird opium dream
They are sort of psychological
whiskey drinking"

THE NEWEST RErlEDY
FOR
BackaChe, rheumatism and Dropsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery TO many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently, and
the poisOns are carried TO all parts Of tho
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heavinesS, drOwsiness, irrlta-
bility, headaches, chilllpess and rheu-
matlsm. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstn-
ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints, IL causes iumbago, rheumatism,
govt or sclatica. This is the time TO try

into the system from meat eaten, and

Virginia Hardy as Barbara Worth.


Among the most successful attrac-
tions of the past two seasons is the
dramatization by Mark Swan of Har-
old Bell Wright's The Winning of
Barbara Worth" 1t was not an easy
matter to select an actress possess
ing the netural characteristics typi-
cal of western America, but in Miss
Virginia Hardy the producer found
young lady that plays Barbara as
the author would have played it..
Miss Hardy's conception of the char
acter is that Barbara possessed much
worldly wisdom, unspoiled, untaint-
ed. As a child she was found by the
side of her dead mother, in "The
Hollow of Gods Hand" She is i'm
bued with the very spirit of the des-
ert, while its mysteries inspire her
soul. She believes that the future
rests in her keeping, ana she seldom
thinks of the present, her mind wan
dering to the time when the desert
shall be the abiding place of thou
sands of prosperous people, the home
of prosperous men and women,
whose children shall grow up amid
the wonders of nature, wholesome
and strong.
Harold Bell Wright drew Won
derful woman in his imagination
when he pictured Barbara Worth an
ideal woman, and Miss Hardy brings
into play all her histrionic art in
portraying the character as the
author created it. She is fascinated
with the part, because Barbara
stands for strong, clean and whole
some womanhood. She is a daugh-
ter of the west; woman well worth
winning; such a woman in olden
times men battled for. Wright said
of her: There was something about
the girl on the quick-stepping, spirit
ed horse that challenged attention.
The khaki-clad figure was so richly
alive-there was such wealth of
vitality; such an abundance of young
woman's strength; such a glow of
red blood expressed in every curved
line and revealed in every graceful
motion, that the attraction was ire
sistible. To look at Barbara Worth
was pleasure; to be near her was
a delight" That's what the author
said of her and that is what Miss
Hardy makes of the character. She
has come up to the expectations of
the author in such an exacting man
ner that he said Good" To make
the young lady still better pleased
there are thousands of theatre-goers
everywhere this success has been
presented that have made just the
same remark. Miss Hardy comes to
Ashland as Barbara Worth with a
strong supporting cast next Monday.
Remember that this is not a mo-
tion picture, but road show of the
highest class.
