The bond issue was authorized b
the citizens of Roseburg in a special
election held at the same time as the
primary election. : The proposal to
issue $7,000 in bonds was approved
with a large mn'ority and the cha
racter amendment was made.
At a meeting several weeks later,
the council took up the matter ot
issuing the bonds, but an opposition
vote prevented consideration. After
several meetings an ordinance provld

as It carried an emergency clause,
two-thirds vote was needed and with
two of the favorable members absent
the ordinance was defeated.

".Music has well been called the
"language of the emotions". During
the iilneteelh century It passed from
a purely emotional languago to

requested that they be relieved, hav

'onsequently several new memberfl
wore selected for the new oxecutlve
committee which will be composed
of A. A. Wilder. I. B. Riddle, 8. D.

This committee will meet within a

Ico-prealdent and treasurer and will
lso choose a committee to handle
the 41h roll call campaign and also
i for the Junior campaign In
the schools.
It will doubtless be decided that
the work of the Public Health In
struction Nurses will be carried on as
great deal ot good ha. resulted
uring the past summer from her
activities. A questlonalre was mail
ed out recently from the local office
to members of the classes which
ere conducted by Mis. Emily H.
Smith, the county nurse, asking them
whether or not they favorod a con
tinuation of the work.
In every case they reported that
great deal of good Is being done by
Mia. Smith, and that they, porson-
lly, have derived a great deal of
good from the Instructions furnished
them by her through the medium of
the Red Cross organization.
Miss Smith Is now working In the
Roedsport, Oardiner, Scottsburg and
Elkton vicinities and ha. large clas
ses In each of those places. She
teaches home sanitation, care of chil
dren, and various thing, pertaining
o nursing such a. would be of bene
fit In the ordinary home. A. soon
as she completes her work there she
will go to the southern part of the
county, where she will organize new
classes.
The campaign for new members
this yoar will not bo in the form
of an Intensive drive as formerly, but
booth, will be located at convenient
placea and all who care to subscribe
to the work of the red cross, can do
so.
Ijst year over 3,000 members
were enrolled and It Is hoped that
the next campaign will result in mors
members being obtained.
The local chapter has been doing
fine work and lost year demon
strated its worth during the flu epi

of families which othetwlBe would
have been very poorly cared for.
There was also considerable work
by th" organization In securing finan

there has been less of this nnd more
