Assigned To Philippines
CORVALLIS I Dr. Frank P.
McWhorter, plant pathologist at
Oregon State College, has been
selected by the United Nations
Food and Agriculture Organiza
tion for a special one-year assign
ment in the Philippine Islands.
McWhorter will leave in mid
March to work on the new tropical
disease, cadang cadang, which is
killing millions of coconut trees in
the Philippine Islands and Malaya.
Little is known about its cause.
Because 35 per cent of the total
raw products income of the Philip
pines is from copra the dried
flesh of the coconut the new dis
ease poses a serious threat to the
economy of that country, McWhor
ter said.
McWhorter has been at OSC
since 1930 and works as a joint
employee of the college and the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.

World Prayer Day
Observance SSated
Here On Feb. 21
Roseburg will observe the annual
World Day of Prayer Feb. 21.
The announcement was made at
this week's executive board meet
ing of the Roseburg Council of
United Church Women by Mrs. Al
fred S. Tyson, general chairman.
The observance will start at -1
p.m. at the First Baptist Church.
She said people who cannot at
tend would be asked to pause in
their work for one minute of pray
er at that time.
Church bells will sound the call
to prayer. Each church affiliated j
with the council will participate in
the program. j
The World Day of Prayer came
into being in the United States in '
1K87, the idea of a small group of!
Christian women. From that be-j
ginning, the annual observance has;
grown to recognition by an ex-j
pected 25,000 communities this
year. j
The Roseburg Council sponsors
three special days in Roseburg
each year. World Day of Prayer
is one of these, set aside for pray
er and a call to offer for Christian
missions at home and abroad.
At this week's meeting of the
executive board, members also
heard a report on the annual meet
ing of the United Church Women
of the state. It was given by Mrs.
B. P. Harmon. She devoted much
of the report to the subject of the
Oregon Migrant Ministry.
AN'UNUSUAL GIFT was presented to the Douglas County
Public Library recently in the form of bound volumes of
the Stars and Stripes, the U. S. Army newspaper, which
ware printed in France between Feb. 8, 1918, and June
13, 1919, during World War 1. The papers were donated
upon the request of the late Jacob Robbins of Camos
Valley, a WWI veteran and member of the Douglas Bar
racks 176, Veterans of World War I. Shown making the
presentation to Carol Trimble, county librarian, are Harry
Rapp, commonder of Douglas Barracks, and Elsie Robins,
Robins' widow. (Photo-Lab)
