These activities contribute to the

During the past year more than

members are urged to attend and
bring an eligible friend. Some of
Hie group who were at the armis
tice dinner, you will find a henrty
welcome at the meetings. Let's get
ncniinlnted.
The auxiliary Is giving energetic
service in all fields where tho pa
triot le work of women can be ef
fective. We need greater strength
than ever hefore this year because
of grenter need for the work we are
in n position to do. We are asking
all eligible women of Ilosebnrg and
vicinity to come into our nuxlllary
unit now nnd help us carry forward
our great program of Bervice.
Thursday a group met nt the
home of TTnnnah Hansen to sew.
Another quilt was tied and bound

hand. These small items will be
sold as gifts at the weekly sales In
hack of Hoy Dellows store. A gift
counter Is to lie Installed where
nnyone may find a small gift. Do
you have one for us? These quilts
are to be given locally where
needed. Many ne items for the
racks have been given this week.
Anyone who sews can find very
good articles here to be re made
a hit or perhaps find a sweater or
shoes Just right. Money from these
sales in turn buys flnnnel to make
bedding or buy a needed article
for someone. If anyone cares to
contribute to this rummage rack
she may contact the chairman Mrs.
Hannah Hansen. These women
give several hours every Saturday
to this worthy work. Will you too

Hundreds of thousands of women
throughout' the country are now
enrolling In the auxiliary because
that is the place where they can
enlist for patriotic service, said
Mrs. Christine Mlcellt, national de
fense chairman. Every woman who
enrolls in the auxiliary now
strengthens the auxiliary's voice as
it calls for national security in the
present and future. . j
Everyone knows the menace of
present world conditions to the free
American way of life, said Mra.
Carl wlmboiiy, Americanism clinlr-
man of the unit. There is little we
can do aH individuals, we would
be overcome one by one until not
a free person was left. Only by or
ganized strength and effort can we
build devotion to our democratic
Ideals. Half u million women unit
ed in the same program can achieve
mild! toward keeping America
thoroughly American.
There la a place for all in our
auxiliary program. Community ser
vice, the building of parka and
helping to make our communities
beautiful la one of our big activi
ties, said Mrs. Hoy Young, chair
man. Already trees have been

4th Congressional
District Sought
PORTLAND, Nov. 30. lAP)
Creation of a fourth congression
al district for Oregon, composed
of eight southern nnd contral
counties, will he asked of the state
legislature, an Interim committee
announced yesterday.
The committee nlso proposed
that Multnomah county, the state's
largest, be divided Into six dis
tricts or wards, with one state
senator nnd two representatives
to be elected from each. They
now nro elected from t!iu county
at large.
Counties In thn proposed con
gressional district would be:
Coos, Curry, Josephine, Jackson,
Klnmnth, Luke unci Deschutes. To
tal population is 18o,2r8.
Klamath, Lake and Deschutes
are now in the second eastern
Oregon) district, and the others
are In the first (western Oregon)
district.
The first district would have
population of 4ii.ftll; gerund
IIK.liiio; third (Multnomah conn
ly), unchanged ut Di'n.iHMl, and the
fourth, lK0.2ri8.
No nl tempt was made to ap
portion the population evenly, the
committee repported, explaining
the division was bused on geo
graphical, agricultural and Indus
trial unity.
The proposal anticipates the
granting of another United States
representative from Oregon In re
apportionment to be considered by
congress In January, after the
president reports the 1940 cen-
HUH.
