COAST HIGHWAY USED

The whirl of time so changes
the current Of movement in the
affairs of men that only the "old
timers remember when the di-
rect road to Crescent City missed
the valley of the Rogue altogether,
joining Jacksonville and Crescent
City directly via the Applegate
valley
In those days, 25 and 80 years
ago, the whole traffic went by that
route, for the choice among the
old dirt roads was so little that
the shortest distance was the cri-
terion.
From Jacksonville the road led
as it does today over the hill TO
Ruch and then down the Apple.
gate to Slate Greek and then on
the route as now travelled. Even
now a considerable traffic goes
by that route, ii is said, although
for auto traffic the better roads
are quicker even if longer.
Many times, the pioneers recall
they have made dash for the
stockade at Gold Hill, via this
road, when the Indians threaten
ed to make trouble.-Grants Pass

1ST NATIONAL BANK
OVER MILLION MARK

Another milestone in the finan-
cial history of Ashland was passed
on October 4th, when the deposits
of the First National Bank went
over the million mark, the exact
sum being $1,006,107.59.
1t may be recalled that about
one year ago, on September 23,
1919, the total resources of the
same bank went over million
for the first time, the deposits at
that time being S76O,3O8.14, to-
tai resources s1.OO5.54O.S7.
On October 4th the total re-
sources aggregate S1,255,543.S2,
making an increase for the year of
25O,OOO.95.
This increase can not be in any
manner construed as an indica-
tion of undue expansion, but is the
natural result of existing business
conditions and prosperity in our
city and it tends to confirm the
belief of those optimlsts who have
never lost faith I'M the continued
growth and improvement Of our

ENGLISH WOMEN
HEAVY BETTERS

LoND0N-CBy MaiD-English
women have quit gambling on
love, to put their hopes on the
gee-gees. Astounding numbers OF
women have placed large bets
with commission egents during the
1920 racing season and these bets
come from extraordinary sources.
A well known bookmaker told the
United Press that most of the large
bets placed with. him by women
have been from those residing In
quiet country villages.
81 think they are seeking some
kind OF excitement to lessen the
tedium OF country life" he said
They don't profess to known any
thing about horses-form, pedi-
gree, jockeys and al those things
which the male Gambler studies
so assidiously mean less than
nothing to women
Usually woman chooses
horse because of its name, and a
woman will stake her all ON Il
coincidence tip.
He pointed out that. with usual
feminine peryersity, his women
clients never put their money on
the layorite. They don't want Ia
hear which horse has the best
chance OF winning a race; they
prefer taking risks with large
odds. One woman client came to
him with large sum of money to
put on horse called Golden
Guinea" explaining. That's the
name of fayorite wine of mine.
