Family of Nine .
Find Jobs Few
Jobs are on the wane. That is
what the George Fields family,
who a week ago arrived in Sa
lem in search of work have
learned.
The family, father and mother
and seven children, unable to
find employment in Medford
where they lived have traveled
around the state in search of
employment, with Salem their
last stop.
Permanent residents of Ore
gon, the couple, and the seven
children, youngest age one year,
and the oldest 10 years of age,
are living at the labor camp at
tne airport now and picking ber
ries. The two, together, average
from four to five dollars a day'
in the field and are finding it
hard to stretch that amount far
enough to feed nine people.
The -father a bulldozer operat
or by profession, was for seven
years employed by a private
concern that contracted for high
way work for the state. He is
in search of work in his line
now but has also looked else
where for employment, check
ing sawmills or any other places
that he feels would offer enough
employment to feed nine per
sons. Amity Roy LaFollette of
Wheatland, was elected to suc
ceed himself as director on the
Amity Union high school board
at the annual school meeting
and election Monday at Amity
and Wheatland and the school
meeting followed. LaFollette

IN MARRIAGE VOWS
'Minister Substitutes 'Love
For 'Live' in Ceremony Words
Worcester, Mass. W) A Worcester clergyman has changed a
portion of the wedding vows which reads "so long as you both
shall live" to "so long as you both shall love."
Rev. Gordon B. McKeeman of i
All Souls Universalist church
said the original version was
"antiquated." He said it does
not conform to the "present cul
tural pattern of society."
"My belief is that marriage
legally is a civil ceremony and
the basis of marriage is love it
has not always been so but on
the basis of our present culture
it is," the clergyman said.
"If a minister says 'so long
as you shall live' he is bind
ing a couple to take a vow that
is not true according to civil
law."
He said there Is no reason to
ask couples to take a vow which
"they may not keep."
The Universalist church he ex
plained, does not bind their min
isters to any regulations, but the
legal requirements. He said he
has performed between 15 and
'20 marriages using the word
"love" instead of "live,"
