Mail Tribune 100, April 10, 1915 The following news items were drawn from the archives of the Mail Tribune 100 years ago. Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Apr. 10, 2015 at 12:01 AM Posted Apr. 10, 2015 at 12:01 AM » Social News April 10, 1915 The Medford-Grants Pass auto line will begin operations Wednesday, April 14. Charles F. Young is general manager of the company, and is having 14-passenger bodies made in Portland suitable for this run. The following schedule is being tried out for a couple of weeks, in order that later a new schedule will be arranged to accommodate the general public. Two large cars carrying from 12 to 14 people will be on the route early in May. The present schedule is arranged to make one and a half round trips daily, alternating between Medford and Grants Pass: On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the auto stage leaves Medford at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, leave Medford at 1:30 p.m.  On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, leave Grants Pass at 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, leave Grants Pass at 1:15 p.m. The route taken will be via Central Point over Blackwell hill, Gold Hill cross bridge at Rock Point, south side of Rogue river to town of Rogue River, south side river to Grants Pass. No passengers will be carried north going to Central Point, and cars will stop anywhere along route on signal.   Advertisement: Bankers, Contractors Doctors, Farmers, Engineers, Business Men buy Buick Valve-In Head Motor Cars Men who do their own work well want a car that does its work well. They buy the Buick — because it is sold on facts, from the Valve-in Head motor on through. They buy the Buick because it does more than was claimed — more than expected. And these men expect much. Eleven years of building valve-in-head motors (in fact, the pioneer builders of valve-in-head motor cars), eleven years record of long mileage per car, eleven years of satisfying the most particular users of motor cars, eleven years of pulling through the heaviest sand and mud, of the steepest hill climbing. No wonder men buy the Buick. The best place to learn Buick qualities is on the road. Demonstration given on request. Fours and Sixes — Price F.O.B. Medford $1,055 to $1,800 POWELL AUTO CO.
