MEDPORT) MAIL TRIBUNE MEDFORD, OREOOS, MONDAY. APRIL 30, 1917.
PTOE FIVE
IALLNI PUPILS
The pupils of the Talent schools,
about 150 In number, under the name
Olympic Club, are teaching their el
ders in that neighboring town what;
thrift, energy mid organization can j
do. A week ago today they literally1
picked up $1-10 in the streets and by-j
ways right under the noses of .the I
grownups and added the tidy sum to ;
the club's treasury. ' j
On that day the pupils, with the ni.i
of Welborn Deeson's automobile,
brought to the school grounds all the
old iron, bones, rubber, paper, etc.,
they could find in the yards, lots and
streets. Then the collection was sold
, to an Ashland Junk firm for $M0.
Of course, the value of the heap of
scrap iron and other old metals gath
ered made the total sum received so
largo. It has not been decided as yet
just what use will be made of this
money,
"However, the Olympic Club has
more than one iron in the fire, so to
speak, as Its activities of the past
I would indicate. The club since its
i' organization a long time ago has
' financed Its own activities and espe
cially the school athletics. For the
passed seven months it has provided
a noonday warm meal at the school
at an average cost of five cents per
meal a person.
Recently the Olympic Club plowed
up the school baseball and football
grounds and planted it to crons. The
club has foun acres of alfalfa planted i
in sections or the streets and in va
cant lots. So far, it is figured the
club, has' not less than ?100 clean
profit, barring the labor the pupils
have put in, coming from these crops
it has put in and is caring for.
Much of the credit for tho ginger
the club displays and its successful
activities is attributed to the popu
larity and live wire tendencies of
Peter Spencer, tho head of the school.
