a few words. 81 am sure that with
this beautiful building, this COM
munity will take the lead in this
sort of work in the state"
II want to compliment you on
the splendid results you have at
tanned in the rearing of this build
ing" Charlie Loomis said. 'It will
stand as monument to the intelli-
gent energy of the women of the
Ashland Civic club. This is splen-
did building, reared for the purpose
of supplying this city with public
place suitable for the entertainment
of visitors who may come here both
from abroad and from the territory
adjacent to Ashland. 1t is in keep
ing with Ashland's hospitality.
81 want to say to you that while
among many of the essential things
Ashland needs, besides more water,
more lights, a big hotel, more CO.
operation, is more Jesse Winburns.
Not only for the generous gifts he
has made the city, but the spirit Of
advancement and achievement he
has exercised.
81 feel highly complimented in be-
ing allowed the privilege of being
present at this time, when we have
with us as distinguished a visitor as
our probable incoming governor
Walter Pierce.
''And to the people of Medford, had
/ the chance to address them, l
would say that the six successful
years Pop" Gates has steered them
through, his work will stand shin
ing mark long after he has passed to
private life.
81 wish to say few words along
the line of getting behind our own
producers and manufacturers. Let's
eat Ashland bread, Ashland made
butter and flour; let's buy our shoes
and coats and hats at home. l can't
recall time that I've seen Sears
& Roebuck registered at our hotel.
They have never built any business
blocks in our town, have never
such points as Lake of the Woods,
Crater and Diamond lakes, the Mar
BILE Caves and many places vastly
interesting. The key to unlock all,
these is the fine big tours, nsre-.
With that we are ready for all new
comers. Our location is ideal. The
elevation is just right. We miss the
extreme wet of the north and the
heat of the south. We not only catch
the tourist travel here on the coast,
but those from the east and middle
west are bound either to come the
uOilH iOulC anu COiiiC thi OuSu HCio
or go back the southern way.
81 thank you for this opportunity
to express my sentiments"
Miss Grace H. Chamberlain, pres
ident of the Ashland Civic club, and
to whose untiring efforts the build
ing was started and continued in the
face of huge obstacles, said she
spoke for every woman in Ashland,
and rendered a vote of thanks to
Jesse Winburn, and in finishing her
remarks stated that every effort
helped to pay any of our taxes and
doubt II they ever drank any of
our so-called polluted water.

Gates, MedfOrd mayor, declared that
his city needed such a building. but
thought the erection would be great

Medford had no Jesse Winburn. He
emphatically declared that II Win

build a canyon down the center of

to that city.
