Wholesale burglaries were at
tempted in Ashland last night, al
though nothing of any importance
is missing in the business places
visited by the intruders. The
places broken into were the
creamery, the White House Gro
cery and the Fourth Street Meat
Market, At the creamery it could
not be ascertained how the ma
rauders gained an entrance, as
no doors or windows were dlstrib-
uted this morning so far as could
be seen. That the place had been
visited by sneakthieves during the
night, however, was apparent by
the fact that the cash register was
broken into and Il little change
taken. All the keys in the build
ing were carried off and matches
were strewn over the floors.
At the White House Grocery
the front door was pried open and
entrance gained that way. Moth
ing was disturbed so far as could
be learned by Mr.. Kaegi, the pro
prietor, this morning. Entrance
was made in the same manner at
the Fourth street meat market.
The lock on the front door was
pried off and is missing. The cash
registers were torn apart, appar-
emily in search or money, but
nothing is thought to have been
taken from the stock.

A Rainy Day in Ashland, Oregon

Drop, drop. waters of gold.
On orchards. forests and mead
ows;
All things drink as nature hold
Her cloud-banks as shadows.
Birds. bees and butterflies rest.
While grasses, trees and berries
grow;
Chubby children, heirs of the best.
Romp and play while the creek
flows.
Tourist travel on high priced gas.
Coming from a hotter cline;
Enjoying the cool air as they pass
On over some roads of slime.
so lovely as a rainy day
i'm June,
Unless it's cherries. that will
Tipen soon;
While everything in nature Is in
tune;
Or perhaps, star-lit nights and a
full moon.

SENT FORD AUTO
TO MISSIONARIES

The Missions, a Baptist month
ly magazine, of recent date con
tains the following which is OF
much interest to Ashland people
Another beautiful mail was the
one that brought the letters writ
ten to the Batavia church in
western New York by DR.. and
Mrs. Manley The Batavia peo-
PIE were kind enough to share
these jubilant letters. The Man
leys are the very own mission
aries OF the Batavia church, and
the church planned a big surprise
for them at Christmas. They
knew that Mrs. Manley had not
been very strong, and that walk
ing about in the prOstrating heat
to call upon all the mothers and
babies in the hot little mud houses
was exhausting. So, with a long
Pull and Il strong pull and pull
altogether, they bought doughty

way. II ever you read letters
that made you want TO laugh and
cry it was the letters of those two
astonished missionaries These
letters made many folks in Bata
Via happy too, quite sure that
one little Ford chugging away in
India was better even than one
more Ford scampering about Ba-
tavia."
Mrs. Manley, spoken OF in the
above, was Miss Ruth Bass. 4 for
mer well known Ashland young
woman. whose father was a mem
ber of the firm of Wick & Bass
several years ago. She with her
husband has gone to India to work
in the mission fields under the

South America Had mountain
called Mt. Ray for him, and ac-
tually knows more about the con
tinent than any other living man
today. DR.. Ray has been called the
Livingstone of South America.
This lecture is thrilling and fas-
cinating in the extreme. The Par
nells are the entertainers on this
day and the Parnells are the most
delightful, versatile entertainers
on the Chautauqua platform,
songs, character sketches read
inss, instrumental selections, they
appeal to all, young and cd.
Judge Bale of Columbus, Ohio,
has a great message for the pres
cnt age which he delivers on this
day, subject, "The Fourth Line OF
Defense. Bale was one of the
Youngest mayors in the United
States, afterward judge OF the
juvenile court Of Columbus, and
although still a young man has
al experience along the line of
public affairs, which entities him
to a hearing before the people
everywhere. With the Parnells.
Dr. Ray and Judge Bale, the sixth
day is one big day.
The last day company of ma
tive New Zealanders, The Maoris,
are the principal attraction. These
people are the only company of
the kind in America, and their
program shows the people of this
South Sea- country in their origi-
nal or semi savage state, also as
they now exist, cultured, educated
and II part of the social life OF
their country. One of the mem
hers of the company is said to be
the best tenor singer of his coun-
try, and the wild, weird, and yet
wonderfully musical quality OF
their singing as company, leaves
a different effect on an audience
than any other musical aggrega-
ton. The Maoris are different.
The lecture of the evening is en-
titled "An Evening in the South
Seas, also given by a New Zea-
lander, Mrs. Leila Bloomfield.
Beside the above. the local man
agement hope to have one or two
big attractions not vet announced.
The Ashland ChautauQua has come
to have 4 reputation as The Big
Assembly of the Pacific Coast. We
hope to not only sustain this rep,
utation but to build an institution
here that will in the future at
'traCt people from a muhc larger
area than we are now reaching,
thus enabling us TO present the
very best possible to obtain any

Warren 6. HARDING

Senator Warren G. Hardng's
early passion for the cornet blast
ed a promising career at law,
While studying law in Marion,
, o., he joined the village cornet
baLd. The band was naturally a
popular institution and it per-
formed at all ceremonies and pic
MICS. Young Harding found it
took considerable money to attend
all these functions. Unable to
earn enough at his vocation, he
abandoned it rather than give up
the instrument and the esthetic
and corporeal pleasures it gave
him.
II is also chronicled that Hard
ing first became a candidate for
the office of president of the
United States at the age of IL.
his father, Dr. George Y. Hard
ing, vouched for the story. Hard
ing announced his candidacy to Il
group of companions while the
church bell was being tolled on
Washington's birthday.
you'll see the day when bells
will, be ringing for me-" he told
them. I'm going to grow up to
be great man and be president
myself"
Senator Harding was born No
vember 2, 1865, near Corsica,
Morrow county, Ohio, In 1881
he was graduated from Iberia col
lege. in the same county, Three
years later he took fling at
the newspaper business by pur-
chasing the Marion Star. He
married Miss Florence King of
Marion in 1891 and in 1899 was
elected state senator, He was
re- elected in 1901 and at the close
of his second term won the cleo
ton to the office of lieutenant
governor of the state, He was
defeated for governor in 1910. In
1912 he helped nominate Will
liam Howard Taft for the presi-
dency and two years later was
elected United States senator from
Ohio. In 1916 he acted as tenn
rorary chairman Of the republi-
can national convention at Chi
cagO.
William Howard Taft and Hard
ing had been warm personal
friends for a long time and in
1912 it was decided to entrust
Harding with Talt's nominating
ADDRESS before the national con
vention in Chicago. His strong
personality, striking appearance
and Oratorical ability made him
one of the outstanding figures of
that turbulent session.
In 1914 there was persistent
demand for Harding to declare
himself candidate in the sena-
tOrial race. He was hesitant and
held off because of his friendship
for Josephr BForaker, speaker of
the house, who was also candi-
late. Following a meeting be
tween the two Harding stepped |
into the arena and defeated his |
democrat opponent, T. S. Hogan,
attorney general for the state.
