PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEPFOKD. OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1935 M'COY SELECTED J. W. McCoy, Ash I Mid banker, hn ben named chairman of the budget committee, and H. A. (Bert) Thierolf, Medford lumberman, secretary. Thurs day has been set for the first regular meeting, providing one of the ap pointive members returns from ft business trip In time to attend. The county court and the budget committee last Saturday Inspected rouds end bridges Jn the Applsgate dlBtrict. A meeting was. helu last Friday for the purpose of organizing and studying plans of operation. Members of the county court state that the appropriation for bridges and demands for road Improvements and new roads Is heavy, it Is pre dicted that the bridge repair fund will be the largest In several years. Many of the bridges are deteriorat ing from heavy traffic and lack of repairs In the past five years. In aome instances the supporting string ers have started to decay. Members of the county court feel that placing the bridges In good re pair Is a matter of sound business policy, as one damage suit, should an accident occur, would more than offset the economy. A check show there are 706 bridges of all sizes and shapes In the county, in varying degrees of safety. . The demand for new roads has been t brisk the post two months, from dls fc.trlcts wanting new outlets, and Im- provements to the old routes.

Elks Initiate 7 Members Thursday A class of seven new members will be Initiated by the Elks' lodge on Thursday evening, It was announced today. A call was ssued for a full attendance of members to givo the initiates an impressive welcome. The Young People's Crusade Rally, conducted by the Young People's aux iliary of the local Church of the Naz arene, held In the Presbyterian church Sunday night, was acclaimed by the large attendance as a notable success In the field of Christian ministry and t service. The attendance went far beyond the quota requested by the general department. Approximately three times the membership of the local society were In attendance. The young people desire, especially, to ex press thanks to the southern Oregon public for Its support. Rev. U. E. Harding of Portland brought the special message, as guest speaker, from the topic, "Christ and Young America." He said, In part, as follows: "This is a day of youth achieve ment, but the story Is two-a'ded Youth Is taking the field In the realm of commercial and Industrial achieve ment. It Is also predominant In the field of Christian crusading for Christ, as Is evident by this program j tonight. J "There Is also a tragic side to this : day of youth. The country le shock ed, today, by the unprecedented crime crusade that Is sweeping the world. The blight of our nation Is tha crime of youth. "This makes the challenge of Christ crusading paramount, if the en- crouching tide of evil is to be turned to worthy Christian citizenship. E. Millard will have charge of services at the chapel and the services will be In charge of the Oregon National Guard. JACK WDM RITES WEDNESDAY AT 2 P.
