Word came from Paris recently that
the bob is "demode" over there, and

this. One set asserted independ-

To which end there is a special false

Our Scenic Suburbs.

Indomitable. unIlinching. courage
Gus, We all honor the pioneer There
is only one line, in which we may
ever hope TO equal, much less TO eX-
cell him. But, in these softer times,
we do have one chance TO improve
upon that rough-hewn model and
that is on the aesthetic side. A ce:-
tain intolerance was necessary to him
that is not necessary to us. To our
typical pioneer, there was no good
Indian but a dead Indian: no fine
manzanita bush but the one that had
been grubbed up; no admirable
mountain but the one that he could
level down or turn to some practical
account. And, in all this, he was
right; il was his job to conquer the
wilderness. Upright and downright
he fully recognized that straight is
the line of duty" but he failed to
recognize the qualifying truth that
Curved is the line of beauty" He
laid out his towns in the undulating
valleys OF these wonderful foothills
with streets as nearly as possible at
strict right angles, just as his fathers
had laid them out upon the flat
prairies of the middle west. Con-
tour-lines played no part in his con-
seriousness. For practical reasons
and for added security, he preferred
to live nestled close to his neighbors
in the valleys.
But We no longer have to contend
with pioneer conditions. 1t is per-
fectly safe now to have a suburban
home with mountain ozone in the liy-
ing room and upland acreage in ones
back yard. Difficulty of access need
not be an obstacle, as all of us who
have seen awesofne grades impercep-
tibly overcome on the auto highways
OF the west know. In constructing
our own Glenn View Drive. our city
engineer achieved a similar miracle
here in Ashland, gaining a gradual
ascent to what had hitherto been con-
sidered uncsalable heights-for an
automobile, at least.
But Glenn View Drive should be
but the beginning of several similar
miracles here in Ashland, for on the
camel-back ridge debased by the
name OF "Bunion," and on the long,
gentle slopes overlooking our Canyon
Park, we have the raw material for
scenic suburbs, rivalling those of
Portland Heights and Berkeley Hills.
Contour roads should iIsinuate them
selves into the lovely heart OF these
hills, whose tender hollows seem TO
invite homes to shelter in them
For Ashland to turn her back, or her
blind side to her mountains is to re-
pudiate one of her most distinctive
charms; all travelled visitors to this
town know that this is so. II is COM

COUNTY ASSESSORS ARE
COLLECTING FARM STATISTICS

The annual collection of basic agri-
cultural statistics. principally the
acreage planted to each crop, by coun-
ty assessing officers under state laws.
Is now carried on in 81 states and
has been Of great benefit. The wide
adoption Of this plan resulted from
the experience during the war emev-
gency. when states like Kansas. with
such laws in operation, were able to
obtain definite data regarding sup
ply, while other states suffered great
anxiety, inconvenience, and damage
from the lack of such knowledge.
The crop reporting service of the
bureau OF crop estimates, United
States department OF agriculture. has
given full assistance and encourage
ment to this movement, because data
secured in this manner furnished the
best check yet devised on the accu-
racy OF its estimates and permit an
nual revision Of any biased or erron-
eous estimates. instead of allowing
Inaccuracies to accumulate in the an
nual forecasts during the 10 years
intervening between federal censuses.
1t will also permit the issuance by
the bureau OF crop estimates, month
ly. OF county and district estimates
for important products. which would
be unsatisfactory without such an an
nual check.
1t is hoped by department statis-
ticians that such a law will speedily
be enacted in every state. The ben
efits. OF such full and dependable
date concerning the state and each
county annually are very great to
agricultural producers and to all bust
ness interests affected by farm out
put and purchasing power.

the most money in your city"
Another point Mr.. Cuthbert i'm
press upon his audience was the fact
that they should make their city So
attractive, themselves friendly, con-
genial and courteous that once they
get a tourist IN their midst he will
remain here. This point was also
discussed among the group at the
meeting, that the attractions imme-
diately surrounding Ashland should
be made plain 10 the tourists, that
even though they cannot tarry long
the first visit here, they will know
of the excellent hunting grounds, the
fishing, mountain climbing and the
beautiful scenic attractions within
easy reach. "The secret OF making
regular business of tourists is to
get them to your city, and once here
to keep them here"
Many other points directly concern
ing the Ashland camp ground were
discussed. Mr.. Cuthbert expressed
himself as not in favor of two sep
arate grounds, one free and the
other with charge for entrance.
The plan Of erecting a shelter for
tourists with an open fireplace for
their use in rainy weather met with
his approval, and several other mat
ters which are under consideration
OF the local park board were brought
out and commented upon by both
the members present and Mr.. Cuth-
bert.
The latter stated positively the
northwest may look for at least so
per cent more travel through this
section Of the country next year than
last. This he claims, will be due 70
the good roads, increase in railroad
rates and the gasoline shortage vi
last year eliminated. Mr.. Cuthbert
represents an association that is
making tourist travel study, and
he is emphatic in his assertion that
this is to be the main business asset
of the Northwest If the people 90

Does Any One
Know This Man?

Chief of Police j, W. Hatcher is III
roce;nt Of a letter from DR.. j. u
Holmes of Alamogordo, n. NJ con-
earning the death OF a man in san
otorium at that place, who gave his
address as Ashland, and asking IN
formation regarding him. The let
ter is as follows;
"On November 2S, 1920, man who
gave his name as Charles Armstrong
Helms. and at times Charles Arm
strong, died at sanatorium here OF
tuberculosis. He was very reticent
regarding his past but told us some
circumstances. He gave us no clue
as TO his relatives.
Mr. Helms said he was an Amerl-
can citizen, and had joined the Cana
dian forces at st. Catherine, Ontario,
in August. 1914. He sailed TO Eng
land and was assigned to Co. A, 3rd
Battalion, Royal West Kents as a
private, and gave his number 1891
or 394O9. He said he was sent 10
France and was in several engage
ments. but most Of the, time was a
camoflauge painter, as that was his
trade. He was gassed and sent to
the Clepstone Military hospital in
England. We have some papers that
showed he registered with the Metro
politan police, London. cas- an alien
No. 3l-5FAugust, 1918. On August
2S, 1918, he also registered with the
American consulate for compulsory
=. military service. He gave as hi
American address, Ashland Boule
ward, Ashland, Oregon.
"Mr. Helms was landscape paint
er of more than ordinary ability ans
carried himself well here. He wa
sick with tuberculosis and depended
upon his friends for support.
We have little information regard
ing him, but found the name of Mar

he was born in the west, but had ira
eled considerably,

Ashland citizens who attended the
informal meeting called at the Ho-
tel Austin yesterday afternoon re.
ceived some excellent pointers anent
the keeping up Of the automible
camp which is fast making this city
noted. Herbert Cuthbert, of Seat
tie, executive secretary of the North
west Tourist Association, who Is
visiting this section Of the state, came
over from Medford where he had
been one of the speakers at the
Chamber of Commerce forum at noon
yesterday, and talked to the sprink-
ling of the Ashland Chamber of Com
merce members and members of the
park board who were present.
Mr.. Cuthbert expressed himself as
having great faith in the tourist
trade as the Northwest's greatest as
set. Present conditions point, par
ticularly to this phase Of business.
The war has shut off European trav-
el 80 largely at the present time is
one reason for an advent Of tour
lists from the east to visit tn, west.
The war is responsible for another
reason. Many people have become
so fed up on European countries
during and ,since the war that an
immense wave of patriotism is sweep
ing over the coast, and tourists are
planning to know America first"
the expression of which Mr.. Cuth-
bert claims to be the originator.
The visitor made the auto camp
ground the leading topic of his talk.
This he claimed should be kept at
tractive. even as beautiful as pos.
sible, cleanly and sanitary. but he
Is not in favor of establishing too
many "frills." BY this expression
he means free camp grounds should
not be so convenient and comfort
able as to compete with local hotels
The latter he states Is one OF the
principal assets of city. the upkeep
of which goes largely back to the
merchants and business people OF the
city.
"If people demand luxuries such as
electric washers, shower baths and
all the conveniences one receives in
the hotels. they should pay for them"
Mr.. Cuthbert remarked. II park
board wishes to establish these con-
venlences he advocated either charg-
jng all users of them or putting a
price per automobile on occupying
the grounds.
Another point Mr.. Cuthbert made
towards making the tourist trade a
success is the method OF receiving
these visitors. He related a story
a tourist told of stopping at an auto
camp in certain city. The first
night they were there a number OF
the Chamber OF Commerce members
visited him, and made him welcome
to their midst. The next night an
other group came to the grounds ex-
other courtesies. Tour
lists like these friendly oyertures,"
Mr.. Cuthbert continued. mot even
this manner frequently meet some
Of the finest people on earth.

the kind of overalls he wears when
tourists come to your camp ground"
