As Beneficiary Need for
Much. Relief Work Is
Emphasized at Meeting
The complete budget of the Com
munity Chest for the coming year
will be presented at the meeting of
the board of directors September 17
with recommendations of the com
mittee which met yesterday evening
at the Chamber of Commerce build
ing. It was announced this morning.
The sum to be represented in the
recommendation was not told, other
than that it will be lower than last
year.
Representatives of all organizations
Included in the chest attended yes
terday's session and discussed the
problems to be confronted this year.
The need for relief work was given
special emphasis and a letter of
resignation was presented by Mrs. H.
D. McCaskey for the Humane Society.
Mrs. McCaskey gave as reason for the
society resigning from the chest the
fact that the work of the Humane
Society is not understood in some
quarters and may be used as excuse
by these persons to avoid contribu
tions to the chest.
Work Emphasized
The character building work that
Is carried on by the Humane Society,
however, was emphasized by Mrs.
McCaskey, with the many other ser
vices it performs throughout the
county.
The Salvation Army, which with
drew from the Community Chest last
year applied for membership and the
other organizations Included last year
are remaining. The group for this
year includes : Boy Scouts, Girl
Scouts, Jackson County Health asso
ciation, Y. w. c. A., Red Cross and
Salvation Army.
The letter of resignation presented
by the Humane Society, reads:
The unanimous support of the
Community Chest Is so essential this
fell that the Jackson County Hu
mane Society fearing that Its work
not being understood In some quar
ters may be used as an excuse to
avoid contributions to the Chest, re
spectfully withdraws.
We wish to thank the members of
the Community Chest for their
hearty co-operation In the past and
assure them that the Humane Soci
ety will gladly lend their support to
Its work.

TOUCH OF
SNOW GIVES LAKE
VISITORS A TREAT
Six Inches of snow has fallen at
Crater national park since last Sun-
oay, most of which melted away rap
idly, including the fresh snow that
fell yesterday wheih, while It lasted,
transformed the lake and park Into
a veritable fairyland, and was much
apperclated by the tourists and other
visitors. The tourists, especially
those from southern California, were
enraptured at the sight.
Even the regular force of park em
ployes , and those of the concessions,
and laborers on the rim road, en
Joyed the novel wintry sight.
The weather conditions at Crater
national park, following the rain and
snow of earlier in the week, Which
cleared the atmosphere and made
wonderful visibility, are now condu
cive to making the scenery all the
more attractive.
TourlBts and others continue
visit the national park dally, and
local people who wish to enjoy the
lake and surroundings in fall setting,
before the season comes to an of
ficial close on September 20, have
only a little over a week to do so.
The cafeteria Is still open, although
the lodge closed about two weeks
ago, and the roads are in good condl
tlon. The park improvement work
and the work of constructing the first
section of the new rim road are still
in progress and will be as long as
the weather permits, perhaps into
late fall.
As in past seasons, even after '
concessions close on September 20,
hundreds will continue to visit the
national park until the coming of
winter prevents.

Fall is the Best Time
To Make a Lawn
Experienced Growers Know That
Fall is the Best Time to Make New
Lawns and to Reseed Old Ones.
In the cool, moist autumn weather gr&nt seed germi
nates quickly and steadily, sustained growth takes
plate. Weeds are not so troublesome in fall-sown
lawns, for most weed seeds germinate in the spring
and summer. That is why it is easier and more eco
nomical to make your new lawn and build up the
weak spots in the old turf at this time.

COUNTY WILL NOT
FOOT EXPENSE OF
Former Mining Promoter
Will Come From Phila
delphia to Face Charges
of Own Free Will, Word
Jackson county will take no legal
action looking to the return of Dee
Williams, formerly general manager
of the Kermlte Metals, Ltd., here,
charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses, the district attorney's
office said today.
According to information furnished
to District Attorney George A. Cod
ding, Williams will return to this
city of his own free will from Phila
delphia where he has been under
arrest since July, for alleged fraudu
lent stock transactions. A Pennsyl
vania court nolle prossed Indictments
against him, so he could return to
Oregon.
Expense a (actor
Heavy expense entailed In return
ing Williams here was given as one
reason for decision to take no official
action. It would require two men to
escort .him across the country and if
he chose to fight extradition, the cost
would be higher. Another factor was
the feeling that the governor would
be reluctant to issue requisition pa
pers.
Williams is specifically charged
with selling mortgaged furniture be
longing to "Your Office Boy," to a
man by the name of Griffin. eH Is
also alleged to have civil actions
pending, in which steps for adjust
ment .have been made.
Williams Is well known throughout
the state. eH first appeared In this
city 18 months ago and leased min
eral land In the Gold Hill area, for
development by a secret process. He
shipped In machinery, which was
never removed from the cars, while
the demurrage bills of the Southern
Pacffic mounted.
Planned Building
At another time Ae planned to
erect a seven story modern office
building on corner of Main and Holly
streets, and had an option on the
University club property. Plans were
drawn for the structure but none of
his plans' materialized.
When the schemes collapsed Wil
Hams, in a paid advertisement.
threatened to move his general of
fices to Grants Pass and blamed the
Mail Tribune for his failure.
A few weeks later Williams went
to Los Angeles and was next heard of
In Philadelphia.

I have been smoking CHESTERFIELDS quite
a long time, and they are not like some of our
friends one thing today and another thing

mild always so pleasing in taste. They just
satisfy all the time.
"By the way, that reminds me of something.
I was playing bridge recently with a girl friend
of mine and two men, and after we finished the
game they tagan lambasting a whole lot of
things and folks. Some of the talk was right
funny, you couldn't help laughing; but, really,
they pulled down a whole lot of things, and
didn't build up anything.
"And that reminded me of a salesman who
called to see me the other day to tell me some
thing about CHESTERFIELD. The thing that
pleased me more than anything else was that he
didn't lambast and cuss out any other cigarette;
but, of course,- he thought that CHESTER

him. They do satisfy."
