Johnson, Jr., ; announced that in accordance with orders from his doctor he would have to relinquish at once the pas-, torate of the church. Mr. Johnson 1 has not been up to his full physical , strength tor the past several weeks I but no one dreamed that it was ! anything more serious than over fatigue produced by his strenuous labors during the recent months. I Until the meeting of the Pres bytery of Southwestern Oregon, held in the Medford Presbyterian church Wednesday, this matter had not been widely discussed. Mr. Johnson tendered his resig nation to take effect immediately. It was with deep regret that the members of that body brought themselves to an affirmative de cision. Mr. Johnson took up his work in the Phoenix church the first Sunday in October a year ago. I'n der his pastorate the work has grown with very gratifying results. The increase in church member ship has been larger than during any other equal period in the his tory of the organization. Through his leadership a very successful daily vacation Hfble school was conducted in the church the past summer during a period of six weeks with an enrollment of 94. Likewise, at his suggestion, n week day school of religious edu cation was organized shortly nfter the opening of the public schools this fall. The enlistment of Miss Ruby Powell, a very able teacher, was secured to co-operate with Mr. Johnson in the conduct and man agement of the school, and the work now is progressing wit h splendid results, comprising the en rollment of pupils in the first seven grades of the Phoenix school. During his pastorate Mr. John son has called much upon the peo u le of his parish, visiting with them in their homes in sickness and In health. As he leaves Phoenix and the Rogue River valley to try out the lower altitudes and warmer cli mate in some southern section, ho will carry with him the Godspeed and sincere and loving wishes of a devoted people for his rapid and complete recovery. Rev. Johnson leaves tonight on the Shasta to join his parents in Los Angeles. MOVE BUILDING FOR BEAGLE POSTOFFICE Due to the success of the com bination of Jack Holt as the star and Frank R.
