' "Did not understand your people voted against complying with quentH Presidents WilBon and Hard ing, requests approved by every hu munltarian nm'iu'y. including the churches, fraternities, United Htutes and Oregon Chamber of Commerce, but only against community plan. Individually no Medford citizen would leave a Btarvlnt? cat to die. Collec tively they will not abandon to hideous death by Htarvation thousands of children In China and Near Kast, but' refiiHal to discharoo this re .fipnnitibilUy means no Uhh. Ashland, Grants rasa, Koseburg, and Portland people no better or worse, no richer or poorer, than Medford. Yet ull pledged their, heartiest co-operation. Tho Portland council assigns Mayor Biiker two weeks to put over the com munity chest quota, China, Near Kast being about ono-seventh of total. If you will have representative groups meet Dr. Wirt April 8, we will send Hellawood, just hack; from China. Your people will respond when they know the need. It will take more than your wire to convince me that Medford repudlutes hep patriotic rec ord to become the one slacker town In tie stute. "K. R. PIPE ft." J In reply Mayor Gutes sent a tele pram agreeing; to call a meeting for April 8, when the true situation In China can be presented to the people of thia city. ' Tho uso of tho term "slacker" toward Medford Is felt to bo entirely unjust and unwarranted. Nearly $2000 was contributed to tho Hoo ver Near East relief fund by Medford people and a certain proportion of this was devoted to relief in China. Through . delay in reporting amounts from various parts of tho county. Sec retary Fro bach of tho Chamber of Commerce, who was wecretary of the Hoover drive, has never been able to publish a detailed report of the amount raised in Jackson county, but upon, his' return it is expected this will bo done. pue to the defeat of tho commu nty chest In Medford, and tho inabil ity to got any local resident to take charge of any money collecting drive, whatever, no one expects Medford will be able to collect a largo amount fO Chinese relief or any other relief . kld tlMin llnuruunp Ihtirn Itnu bwm no disposition In the pust and In; none now, to deny Individual clti su'ii tho bpportunlty to contribute to flUrh a worthy cause, and It Is plan nd at the meeting April 8 to perfect pluris toward this end. FIRST BAPTIST CELEBRATES ITS 'GOAL' VICTORY Kurt or wan a day of great Interest to the Kfist Haptlst church' uf this city, it marked the end of a period, which was set by the church for the reaching of certain goals. Last Octo ber jKkv. K. K. lAach suggested that the church at Us annual business meeting adopt some goals toward, which they would work as a church. The goals set were the obtaining of 75 new members to the church by Eas ter; BO new scholars in the Sunday school, and 60 at the prayer meeting, also a new church building erected within three years. Kuster showed that the church had gone "over the tup" in ull three of Its goals, ns the records showed 83 nddU tions to tho church; 08 new scholars In tho Sunday school, and 77 at one of tho prayer meetings. Seven mem bers were added to the church last week, and 17 new scholars united with the Sunday school in tho past two Sundays. Wednesday evening the prayer meeting and monthly siclal following the same was given over to a service in which attention wuh di rected to this encouraging feature in the work. Mrs. Mears gave an Interesting talk on "The Effect Reaching the Goals ilas Had on the Church"; f. K. Marsh spoke encouragingly on "The Remaining Goal the New Church Huilding"; Rev. Y R. Leach spoke on "How We Reached Our Goals." Tho church feels greatly encour aged over the results, which have co mo about following the program outlined by " Rev. Leach. Following tho meeting a mciul time was en joyed by the largo number present. A pleasing program was given as fol; Iowh: Selection by the Stewart Fam ily Orchestra; solo by Mrs. Newberry, and u seloctlon by the male quartette. Refreshments were served at flic close of tho enjoyable evening. i f9 f (WW FUNERAL SUNDAY NATCHEZ, Miss., Mar. 31. The body of Lieutenant V. D.
