Holiday Fixing
On Mondays Plan
Of Motor Assn.
There'll be more long weekends,
if a plan proposed by the National
Association oi Travel Organiz
tions gets into effect.
A snecil committee of NATO
is backing a plan to encourage
observance of major holidays on
Monday, reports Oregon State Mo
tor Association,
According to information re
ceived at the motor club'a head
quarters in Portland, the commit
tee Is urging the introduction of
legislation at forthcoming state
legislatures to change some holi
days to Monday.
Among the changes proposed by
the group are these: President's
Day third Monday in February,
combining the various dates ob
served for the birthdays of Wash
ington, Lincoln and Jefferson;
Memorial Day last Monday in
May, Independence Day first
Monday in July; Veterana Day
first Monday in August, combin
ing V-J, V-t, and Armistice Days;
Columbus Day second Monday
in October; and Thanksgiving Day
fourth Monday in November.
The committee stresses that it
is not asking any change in ob
servance of religious holidays.
In urging other changes, it points
out that mid-week holidays do not
allow time 'or activities of the
type most desired by the pub
lic. In addition they may result
in serious loss ot efficiency and
bring about absenteeism on days
following in many industrial
plants. The same is often true in
schools, the NATO committee
emphasizes.

Fire Destroys Historic Home
On Rice Creek In Dillard Area
By MRS. ROSA HEINBACH
An early morning fire recently
destroyed one of the earliest
frame houses built on Rice Creek
in Dillard. According to Mrs. Myr
tle Rice, who moved on Rice
Creek In 1894, and has lived there
since, the house was standing at
that date and was occupied by
the 0. J. Rand family. The Rands,
a large family lived there several
years.
The six-room, three bedroom
dwelling was substantially built
of lumber sawed from the mills
on the premises. Some years later
the property was bought by A. C.
Goettsche who lived there a num
ber of years. Residents of more
recent years on the old place
were the Jess Meredith family,
who came out from North Dakota
and purchased it in 1914. He was
a grandfather of Mrs. Ivan Wil
liams, now living in Dillard. In
1944 John Roberts purchased the
place and owned it until about
a year ago.
It is reported that with the aid
of the neighbors some of the
household belongings of the pres
ent occupants, the Robbinctte fam
ily, was saved from the burning
building.

'Courtesy Car'
Evangelism Said
To Be Paying Off
The Courtesy Car Crusade, a
new, systematic and helpful pro
gram of personal evangelism, is
paying off in increased attendance
at North Roseburg Church, the
Rev. Clark Robb, pastor, reports.
Started only last March, 1952,
the continuing plan has already
brought into the church services
"conservatively, trom 50 to vis
itors." This modern approach to biblic
al evangelism was developed be
cause of serious transportation
problems of the church's mem
bers and potential visitors. Meet
ing in a suburban location, the
Rev, Mr. Robb explained, lack
of needed public transportation
meant that many people who oth
erwise might attend services stay
ed away.
Robert Gladwlll heads the pro
gram. He is assisted by five lieu
tenants, who have charge of five
Roseburg districts. These are
South, West, Edenbower, Benson
and North. A metal plate desig
nating each courtesy car is placed
above the regular license plate
for identification.
The pastor said that the system
has proved so successful that it
wil be continued indefinitely.
A courtesy car drive in the
church's Sunday school classes
will culminate Sunday, June 8. A
Bible spelldown at the evening
meeting will be a feature. Mrs.
Ralph Arensmeiar has arranged
100 questions and answers for ad
vanced study by the classes. The
winner may get an expense-paid
summer camp trip at Jennings
Lodge in August.
