Meeting to Discuss Night
Courses -Scheduled
v Fop Thursday
Plans for the organization of
evening nigh school courses,
which will be carried oat If a
real and sufficient need develops,
will be formulated at t meeting
of those Interested toOe held
at the high school Thursday at
7:30 s.m., announced T. T. Me
Kenzie, Tocational director, last
night. -' ' ' ' -:'
More than 80 -students who
are not now attending high
school hare asked for evening
Instruction. Discussion of courses
which might be offered, and reg
istration of applicants will take
place at the meeting. It is prob-
able that costs of instruction will
ha vie to be borne, at least in part
br those registering for the
classes, and only those who can
be definitely benefitted will be
oermltted to enroll, McKensie
stated.
Some applications hare been
received for evening classes in
the past but never before to such
an extent as this year. The mat
ter was placsd before the school
"board at -Its meeting last week
4 referred back to the voca
tional training department for
further inquiry.
"Evening: school work In Sa
lem is far below the average for
cities of similar size in other lo
calitiiM," McKenxle said. "Aver
age registrations range from 2
to: & per cent of the total popu
lation of each city Phoenix, Ari
zona, for instance has a popula
tion of approximately 75,000 and
registers from ?00p to000 In
its' evening schools.' Portland has
at largo end going program."
rln the past, evening classes In
rSalera have been limited to
' adults. Special short units in ma
chine shop, sewing and others are
being offered again this year.
Xight high school work, if ar
ranged, will be a new thing in
Salem and is expected to fill a
definite need since many students
drop out of school before gradu
ation, either from choice or from
necessity, and later find that fur
thor training is necessary before
'advancement may be obtained.
In cases where students must re
tain their positions it Is possible
only for them to attend the even
ing classes.
"McKenzle urges that those in
terested be present Thursday ev
ening or to call either himself
at the high school or Miss Violet

ttnuittion school, at 5719. 1

Banquet Ends Celebration;
First Congregational
Is Sent Greetings
Tha celebration of the 80 th an
niversary of tha founding of the
First Congregational ehnrch of
Salem came to an and last night
with a banquet, In tha social par
lors of the church. Greetings from
former pastors and members of
th church wera read by Dr. W. C
Kantner, former pastor. Rev. Kv
O. Stover brought the greetings o
a "daughter" ehnrch. Knight Me
morial. William MeGilchrist, Sr.,
former choir director, sang two
numbers. An Interesting number
also was a vocal dnet by Mrs. Bab
cock and Mrs. Duncan, both long
time members of the church.
Dr. Raymond B. Walker, pastor
of the First Congregational
ehurch of Portland, brought a
challenging message to the assem
bly. Instead of confining his re
marks to the platitudes for the
attainment of a ripe old age, Dr.
Walker boldly spoke on the topie
"The worst Is. yet t6 come".. In
this period of destitution there
are social strains - and domestic
tension, moral lapses, - delinquen
cies, which lay fresh burdens upon
agencies like the church. The
changing conditions in which a
new order of affairs Is being con-
structed demand that religion sup-
piy me etnie ana the motive which
anau govern.
Sunday's services were also
celebration services. At night an
i old-time service of praise was en
joyed with a large company pres
ent of persons who had in former
years sung In' the Congregational
choir. Mr. MeGilchrist acted as
conductor. Many of the ladles
who attended were dressed in the
garb of long ago, looking as
though they had stepped out of a
daguerreotype a half-century old.
Dr. j. R. Simonds Is present
pastor of the ehnrch and presided
as toastmaster at the Monday
night banquet
