BY MAY FIRST
The Sugar Pine Lumber com­

of Grants Pass, announced Wed­
nesday that they expect to have
a 50,000-feet capacity mill in op­
eration on the old Moon Lumber
company millsite by May 1.
The old mill will be completely
rebuilt and new machinery install­
ed throughout, making it possible
to handle 50,000 board feet of
lumber per shift with an estimat­
ed total for the first year of ap­
proximately 10,000,000 feet of
timber.
Sufficient timber has
already been contracted for in the
Dead Indian, Greensprings, Wag­
ner creek and Trail creek districts
to supply the mill for at least 12
years.
With the exception of the mill
superintendent, Ed Staggart and
the head sawyer, local help will be
used in the plant. Present plans
call for two shifts which will
mean employment for 50 or 60
men and it is possible that a third
shift will be added in the future.

Al­

Knitting units headed by Miss

Churches Observe
World Day of Prayer
Local churches united in a world
day of prayer service last Friday
afternoon at the First Baptist
church, using the theme "Thy
Kingdom Come” for the basis of
meditation and prayer.
Mrs. Carter read the scripture
lesson; Mrs. G. W. Bruce spoke on
The Ruler of the Kingdom,” and
Mrs. Stephens on "The Way of the
Kingdom.”
Special Musical numbers were
contributed by Mrs. R. L. Burdic,
Mrs. Frank Wenzel, Mrs. C. M.
Litwiller and Mrs. J. R. Turnbull.
The group participated in congre­
gational singing and prayer at
various times in the service.
The ladies of the Presbyterian
church have issued an invitation
for the meeting next year.
