A majority of the memberships of the chamber were signed up cn a three, year basis and theso expire on the first of April. These were secured during the campaign conducted by the I American City Bureau, who were sue- j cossful in reorganizing the chamber I from an lnnctlve body to one that has I many accomplishments to its credit during the past throe years. The sorvice which the , American City Bureau rendered was rather cost ly and the method employed is still frosh In the minds of tho workers so that this campaign will lie put on under local leadership and a consider able saving will result to the benefit of the members of the local chamber. Medford during the past few years has developed many leaders so that the employment of an outside agency is unnecessary. With the enthusiasm of the leaders chosen there is no question as to the success of the campaign. Leading citizens are already alive to the neces sity of maintaining a well financed chamber and that Its influence is de pendent upon the numbor of members tho chamber will enroll. U. S.

Smoke an El Sidelo, and you make a new friend, more than likely to grow into an old one.

Win. 11. Huff told last night tho Btory of his struggles for an educa tion and preparation for his lllo: work. Ho said ho did not appreciate! tho offer of an older brother to odu-j cdto him, but rather chose to learn i a trade. After his conversion at the ago of twenty-one he awoke to the need of thorough preparation for life 1 and service to humanity. He began by going to night school, and finally went to college where, though he i found study hard because of tho luck ! of thorough elementary training, he ! grimly determined to master tho cur-j riculum. This he did, nor did he I stop until he had a thorough training for his great work. All this ho did because ho felt that God had first claim on his life. His text was: "Remember now thy creator in tho days of thy youth." Introducing his subject, tho evangel ist said : "Our Creator has a claim on us and it is our first duty to give our whole life to lllm." Then tho fact that great Hfo decisions are easier to mako in youth was emphasized. He said that In youth the mind is condi tioned to receive truth, that tho heart has not boon hardened nnd tho con science Is tendor. "Then," continued the speaker convincingly, "there are reasons why ' it Is best to remember our Creator in ; the days of our youth. Youth is the j best time of life for tho transforming powor of tho gospel. W can only come to tho best when wo are prop erly related to God, and moral ex cellence is the indlspcnsablo element in nil forms of human greatness. A man may be bright, brilliant, clever, strong, nnd broad, but If ho Is bad, ho is an eternal failure. Neither money, cleverness, nor famo uro sub stitutes for character." Probably the most telling point the minister brought out was: "it is dangerous for us not to remember our Creator when we are young. This hecauso the choicest of youth deter mines the character of age; our eter nal interests are at stake; and the life beyond tho grave will be deter mined by the life this die of the grave." The revival is increasing in inter est nnd attendance. Afternoon ser- vic6s will be held today and tomor row at 3 o'clock, but there will bo no services on Saturday. GIRLS! BEAUTIFY AT Try This!
