Congregational Notes.
A sermon of unusual interest
will be preached Sunday morn-
ing. Religion is a matter of de-
velopment and it will be the aim
to show how we came into the
Jehovah religion. At the same
time other nations or tribes were
worshiping their many gods. The
topic will be, "The Origin of
the Jehovah Religion."
The greatest organization in
the world for the cause of tem-
perance in the Anti-Saloon Lea-
gue. There will be a union meet-
ing held Sunday evening and
Superintendent H. T. Laughbaum
of Oklahoma City will address
the meeting. This is the annual
visit of the League representa-
tive. Be sure to hear him.
Never before in the history of
Medford have you had such an
opportunity to hear able men
and women on all phrases of
christian work, and hear them at
home. We hope that you will,
not slight this great meeting.
Other churches are invited to at-
tend and their ministers will be
more than welcome. Remember

OXFORDS
There is considerable difference between Boys
Oxfords and Little Gents Oxfords. We carry the
Little Gents Oxfords. They are built like Men's
Oxfords, with broad toe that gives the boy's foot
room to get its natural growth, and your boy
will never have any trouble with his feet if you
will let us shoe him.

Breaks Two Ribs.
Mrs. S. T. Henderson was the
victim of a distressing accident
the latter part of last week. She
fell at lier home and fractured
two ribs. On account of her
age they will mend slowly but
she is getting along nicely.
Buy a Ford Because it is a Better Car
Not Because it is Cheaper.
By All Counts the
Ford Costs Less
to operate than any other car. Individual experiences vary,
according to the temperament ofthe person who drives the
car, and the condition undar which it is maintained. Many
of our owners drive their cars at a cost of less than a cent
a mile. A few of them double this cost. One owner recent-
ly drove his Ford a hundred and nine miles at a total cost
for gasoline and oil of eighty-one cents—a not exceptional
experience. By all tests the Ford's cost of maintenance is
demonstrated to be the lowest.
High Test Gasoline
We are just installing and now have at your service a 120
gallon underground storage gasolene tank and automatic
measuring pump. The gasoline is stored underground, with
uniform tempreatures, therefore insuring a higher test, and
goes through four sets of filters and strainers before it
reaches your car. Drive up in front of our Ford store in
the Kearse building, try this gasoline kept under proper
conditions and you will use no other.
