Chautauqua Closed AT
Ashland Last Evening

Of Wednesday evening. He stated
that II was not his mission to relate
personal incidents of the war, but to
tell of the effects of this war as re-
CARDS the future generations. He
stated that the fighting men were
sick and tired OF war and wanted
nothing more than peace. Any lure
the call OF war had for young men
in the year 1914 has long since been
dispelled, and he claimed that any
soldier will declare that war is a
worthless game-simply a business
OF killing or being killed.
The chlldren's pageant arranged
by the Junior Chautapqua, super
yisors and put on Thursday after
noon was one OF the most pleasing
and best prepared local talent af-
fairs presented in long time. A
large cast including children from
the teen age down to tiny tots par
ticipated. and the excellent results
showed careful training and pains
taking attention on the part Of the
children. The fact that each child
held a stellar part and that so many
participated 1t is impossible TO dis
tlnguish any one or a certain num-
ber by naming individually, as all
were equally creditable. The sing
ing and choruses we're all charming.
ly rendered.
Chautauqua closed last evening
with fine concert by the Apollo
Concedt company, whoae versatile
entertainment was greatly appre-
eiated by the audience. These charm
ing entertainers gave prelude a;
the afternoons program. and in the
evening delighted the audience with
their selections on the Apollophone,
a specially constructed instrument
on, which all five members OF the
company performed. Their many
other musical selections and read
ings were heartily received.
The war pictures of Henry War
rem Poor with his lecture, "The Clos
ing Days OF the War" were one Of
the great attractions OF the entire
course. These carried the audience
thru the scenes OF the great conflict
ana gave them flrst-handed some
idea of the terrific scenes enacted in
the great war drama.
At the closing session last evening
President Fuller announced that the
Chautauqua Of 1919 had been a sue
cess financially as well as intellectu-
ally. While the association would
not come out with any great sur
plus after all expenses are paid. as
he had hoped to be able to do. still
they will be able to meet all expens-
es and have nest egg for the fu-
ture. This was good news to the
supporters who have felt in securing
the present administration no mis-
take was made in providing for the
future welfare of the Chautauqua
association.

From Appendicitis

w. II. Harvey, a former we'll
known resident of Gold Hill, died
Wednesday night at midnight at a
local hospital following an opera
tion for chronic appendicitis. The
deceased had been in poor health
for long time. He had come over
here several weeks ago from Klam-
ath Falls where he had resided for
the past two years, with the hopo
that he might get relief, but his

that he could not rally and death re-
suited in five days.

well known in this vicinity. Beside

daughters, Leda and Opal, aged Il

WHO OWNS THE RECORD?

We are glad to hear that the new
proprietor of the Ashland Rec
ord, whoever he is, will not stand for
questionable deals camouflaged and
put thru sub rosa" Some two weeks
ago the Record was sold; we were
informed to a Medford syndicate.
We tried for a week to seek truth
from the fountainhead," but we
could not iind that fountainhead.
We enQuired of everybody connected
with the enterprise and sale and was
informed that mo information
would be given"
Just why the Record sale should
be thus "Camouflaged and put thru
sub rosa" we do not know-it is NOT
such an important matter after all.
The Record walls because the
Tidings said 1t had been sold to a
Medford syndicate and declares that
1t was sold to but one individual,
Who is that individual? Is there any
grave reason why his identity should
not be known? Inasmuch as the gov
ernment requires a sworn statemen.

why "camouflage" the ownership
now?
We are glad to hear that the
Record owners had nothing what
ever to do with the long demised
Medford Press, or the Medford

q record to success.
But, gentlemen, why "camou-
flage?" Is there any vital reason
why its little bunch of readers
should not know who Is now behind
the Record? ,,q !. n.s .
If the new Record editor proves
as logical in the future as he starts |

official business and had intended
to stay in Medford couple Of days
but met with an accident about 20
miles from Crescent City which
caused delay Of two days awaiting
repairs for his car. Willie here Mr..
Shoemaker ordered Deputy Warden
Walker to take personal charge Of
the screening of the irrigating
bitches and told him to enforce the
compliance Of the law, without favor
to anyone. The state officials have
gone to great deal Of trouble and
expense trying out different screens
and had finally adopted the Aitxen
self cleaning screen which as now
perfected and manufactured by the
Mitchell Ladder Factory is giving
good satisfaction both to the state
and ditch owners. -

Music Big Feature
At Every Session

Music was one of the most promi-
nent features in this session of Chau-
tauqua. The services of Walter
jenkins, the noted song leader in
the War Camp Community Service,
had been secured to conduct the
singing, and right well was this ac-
qomplished as Iany one attending
can testify. Mr.. jenkins is right up
to the mark in getting music out Of
everyone. and each session as he
appeared on the stage he was greet
ed by hearty applause by the audi
ence. His work of training people
to sing soon became noticeable in
the promptness with which the large
audiences responded when he issued
the signal, SING" Mr.. Jenkins
also delivered five lectures on sing
ing and song leadership in the audi
toriums in the mornings.
= Mr.. Jenkins has also been soloist
on several occasions, as well as other
local talent, such as Mrs. Perry Ash
craft and Mrs. H. T. Elmore. Plan
lists who have assisted in making
this feature the great success 1t was
are Mrs. r. L. Burdic, Miss Mary

The 1919 session OF the Southern
Oregon Chautauqua closed Thurs
day with record of unusually good
attendance, despite the extremely
warm weather that took much Of
the life and enjoyment out of those
who were present at the majority Of
the sessions. The seven-day course
embraced many OF the leading lec-
turers and entertainers who came
with a message TO deliver and In
no wise failed in their mission. The
excellent attdidance this year be-
speaks the future of this institution
as most prosperous one.
Aside from Bryan's lecture in the
afternoon Of Tuesday Chautauqua
presented another great feature in
the evening. that of the Czecho-Slo-
yak band. Ashland has had many
good bands in the past and Is a
Judge OF good music. and the con-
census OF opinion is that this musl.
cal aggregation was one OF the most
pleasing ever presented here. Ac-
companying them was Madame Cafe
ralli, who captivated the audience
with her Czecho-Slovak folk-songs.
The band gave a prelude to the af-
ternoon's entertainment, and the
whole evenings period was devoted
to a concert at which large assem-
bly, listened with close attention.
One OF the really great instructive
lectures in the whole Chautauqua
course was that delivered Wednes-
day afternoon by w. l.. Melllnger.
the Ashland clergyman who is on
the lecture course with the Ellison
White bureau this year. Mr.. Mel
fingers lecture was Misunderstood
Mexico" a topic with which he Is
entirely conversant as he was an in
structor in the schools OF Monterey
for a number OF years and has made
an exhaustive study Of that unhap-
py country. ......-
Mr.. Melllnger did not go into the
present conditions of Mexico, althc
he gave history as TO the causes
leading up to the unsettled state OF
affairs in that country. Dealing with
Mexican citizens Of a superior intel
ligence gave the speaker an oppor-
tunity TO understand their viewpoint
and his explanations Of the reasons
for the disturbances between that
country and the United States were
sufficient to realize that Mexico has
indeed side to the question.
Preceding Mr.. Mellingers lecture
the Regniers gave one OF their at
tractlve entertainments of singing
and readings. and they appeared
again in the evening in an amuzing
little character sketch which was

good blank.
The cut glass in this sale is of this worth
while owning kind and, dollar for dollar, there
is probably no home adornment both useful and
ornamental where so much beauty and utility
can be had at the same time as in few pieces
