The Community kitchen and shel ter served 03 meals one day In Jan uary and continues Its policy of giv ing two meals and shelter for one night, to each . transient, despite the fact that funds have reached the lowest point In tbo history of the Institution. President Lawrence Pennington of the Lions club, which sponsors the project; Chairman Carl Stewart and committee members, B. O. Harding, Leland Brophy and Oascar Hoover, are trying to devise means for meet ing the expenses which, despite ths fact that not one person connected with the operation of the quarters at Fourth and Bartlett, receives any wages, is difficult to urovlde.

Attention Is called to the fact that the rit.y'R transient problem as well as some of the local problems, Is being cared for at practically no expense to the city or county. The Eugene Register-Guard, in a front-page atrtlcle February 6, de scribing Eugene's provision for the care of transients, says In connection with the operation of its plan at the old Yates .hotel: "The service re ceives $185 each month from the city, county and relief chest. Out of this amount comes $50 a month rent for the building, $50 salary for the operation of the place, approxi mately $18 for light and water, $3 for telephone, $5 for laundry, $8 for wood, $10 for car. The grocery bill averages around $40." On the day reported 22 suppers had been served and 17 persons were given beds. A demand for another place to care for transients In Eugene ,1s being made by John Marsh, town constable, Medford has so far taken care of Its community project for transients without expense for wood, laundry, car, telephone or warn, because of the keen Interest manifested by pub lic spirited citizens and the contri bution of time and labor of those actively concerned with the opera tion of both kitchen and shelter. According to Mr. Stewart, the local telephone office has promised to In stall a telephone which will be of great help in saving time and con fusion in th management of the quarters. It is also understood by the chair man that the electricity will be con tributed by the California Oregon Power company. Visitors will be wlcome at any time to Inspect this community enterprise. Two women are at present being carea ior in me women s wing of the building adjoining the rooms of the matron, Mrs. McKeen. One of these women has been making quilts and dolpg other work in connection with the women's ward. Contributions of any kind will be welcomed by those In charge and Mr. Pennington, Mr. Stewart, George fresco tx or any member or the com mittee will give information or re ceive donations for what Is gener ally considered by those familiar with well conducted relief projects, one of the outstanding examples In the state.
