"It doesn't talio me long to see a good thing," said Mr. 13ramwcll. "I wanted to. beat the soliciting teams to it; so I just went Into the chamber yesterday and signed up." "It looks to me as if the buslnoss man who doesn't join the chamber of commerce will be pointed out In the street as an odd character. I'm not taking any chances," remarked Mr. Burk. "I got in on the ground floor." George L. Forge is leaving town to be away during the membership cam paign. But he didn't want to be one of the last to sign up.

"Tho competent man, who Is out of a Job Is an economic waste," de clared Secretary II. O. Frobach, in an interesting talk on unemployment nt the meeting of the Medford commit tee of the board of directors of the Jackson County Red Cross, held in tho public librury last evening. Mr. Frobuch went on to outline nt length tho unemployment situation iu Medford and methods for taking care of It for the past three years. Three yours ago, he suid, from thrco to ton men a day would call at the Chamber of Commerce, asking for Jobs. At that timo there was no systematized method for handling unemployment. The Chamber of Commerce nnd the Ited Cross began working together townrd this end and hist year at the suggestion of Secretary Frobach the Hed Cross as sumed the responsibility of acting as employment agency for tho commu nity. Slnco last fall this work has de veloped into a county wldo employ ment agency. As indicated by tho statistics published in the monthly report of tho Red Cross work it is shown just how much service to the community tho Red Cross renders by dovetailing the man and the Job. Calls out of tho state for employment have even been supplied through the Red Cross. Owing to the fact, however, that many floaters or transiont unemploy ed men pass through Medford, many of whom are not competent, there is always a certain amount of negligi ble material on the unemployment list. Mr. Frobach has recently been ap pointed as chairman of the committee on employment for tho Red CrOBS. Mrs. H. L. Noblltt, chairman of tho Red Cross committee on cooperation with the Public llealtii association, gave an interesting report on the re cent Portlund conference on public health, which as chairman of the Pub lic Health association of Jackson county she attended. She emphasized the importance of care of tho tubercular and of tho menace to tho community of having this dread disease stimulated through bad housing and poor living condi tions. Miss Haines, executive secretary, presented a report on the work ac complished by the Red Cross for the month of February, which shows the wide scopo of tho work, which has made many homes self-supporting, giving to children, men and women an opportunity for normal and wholo som6 living. The manager of tho Thrift Shop, Mrs. C. F. Card, present ed the month's report on the work of this useful and necessary depart ment. Doth theso reports will be published in full. Present wore John C. Mann, chair man, In the chair; Mrs. A. J. Klock er, vice chairman; Rev. E. P. Law rence, recording secretary; Mrs. J. C. S. Welils, chairman of the Red Cross committee on work with the handicapped; Mrs. L. K. Williams, chairman of tho home service com mittee, and Supt. A. O. Smith and C. M. Kidd. Mayor E. C. Gaddis had planned to attend the meeting and sent his regrets that owing to nnothor engagement he was unablo to be pres ent. Among the vlBltors present were J. C. S. 'Wollls, Mrs. L. Crane, representing tho P. T. A., Mrs. Ella M. Farrar and others. At the request of members a re view of benevolent work was given by American Legion post officials at the mooting lust night und tho hope wus expressed that activities along this line might be increased through additional revenues from member . ship. ' Post Commander C. Y. Tengwald gave a tentutivo outline of tho pro gram of the district conferenco which will bo held hero Miir.-h 2-Uh. Tho Oregon state depaitment. of tho American Legion has divided tho stuto into districts and meetings at tended by all post officers and many members of such separate districts and stuto department officers have already been held at La Grande and , The Dalles. Representatives from fourteen posts will - attend the Medford con ferenco in addition to State Com mander George 11. Wilson and State Adjutant Harry N. Nolson. Tho vis itors will Include legionnaires from Klamath Falls, Ashland, Iloseburg, Mnrshfield, Bandon, Grants Pass, North Bond, Coqullle, Myrtlo Point, Lnkevlew, Gold Hill, Reexport, Oold Beach and Pauley. The Medford post officials intend to carry out a rapid fire program starting at 10 a. m. with roll call, while. Intensive study of Legion mat tors will occupy the morning session. At 1:30 the department commander nnd adjutant will take the meeting in hand and various officers will be given instruction In their work. Closer cooperation between posts and more efficient handling of welfare work among ex-service men Is- ex pected to result from tho district con ferences. In the evening a real hint of Med ford hospitality will bo given the visitors. A banquet will be served nt a local hotel following which they will bo guests of honor at tho Orien tal ball room . whoro a big public dance will be given. Local legion naires hope that Medford will be sc I lectod as the state convention place In the not distant future, the comple tion of the Armory making Buch a gathering possible, and with this idea in view a special effort will be made to impress the conference visitors. t ?
