Newspaper Page TextPAGE TWO T CITEDJNREPORT Projects Done for Public Benefit by Corps Told by Supervisor Janouch Civic Worth Is Stressed Th work accomplished by the Civilian Conservation corps In the Aogue river national forest la evalu ated in the Jollowlng report Issued by Karl I. Janouch, forest super visor: "A review of the accomplishments of the COO on the Rogue river na tlonal Joreat aa of March 81, the third anniversary of thla organiza tion, abowa a development cl thla forest, which, under the old eystera of limited appropriations, could not have been realized for a period of at least 10 years. "A wide variety of work has been performed, all of which la In ac cordance with the national forest improvement program which pro vides for the development, protec tion and conservation of the natural resources, with the ultimate objec tive of securing the greatest possible use by the public. All worn on the Rogue river forest haa been planned and eupcrvlsed by local forest ser vice personnel. "The CCO program haa not only meant unemployment relief and large cash expendlturea locally for com modltlea at a time when business conditions were at a low ebb, but It has made feasible the development of the forest for protection and utilisation which will, though in a leas, apparent manner, affect the wealth of the community for many yeara to come. Road System Finished. "The completion of 800 miles of the forest road system and the con struction of 848 miles of telephone lines, and of 14 lookout bouses and towers constitute a great etep for ward In the protection of both pub licly and privately owned timber re sources of this locality. "Thla protection Is essential to the welfare of the community, not alone for timber values, but equally so for the protection of watershed, recreational and forage valuea. The domestic water supply of the cities of Ashland and Medford depends directly on the preservation of the respective watersheds which are the aourcea of these systems. "One of the moat Interesting pro ject in road construction waa the completion of the ao-called Ashland mountain loop drive. Thla road ex tends from Ashland to the moutu of Beaver creek, going Into Little Applegate and following for some distance the divide between the itlMmatH nn1 AnnleaatA river draln- agea, thus giving one of the moat plctureaque mountain views mat can be found anywhere In Oregon. A branch road extends to the top of Mt. Ashland which overlooks a large portion of southern Oregon, rrom this point the rim of Crater lake, Mt. Thlelsen. Mt. Jefferson, Mt. McLaughlin and Bhaata moun tain can be seen. Also a very rugged mountainous area In northern Cali fornia can be viewed from this point. Rustle Resign Used. "An Interesting feature of the building construction Is the new mstla design adopted by the forest service. Examplca of thla design may be observed at the Medford ware house and at Butte Falls ranegr sta tion. Those who are Interested In the construction of new small homes are Invited to view and Inspect the new email buildings t Butte Palls, where rustic construction Is particularly emphasised. "Recreational development has re relved special consideration In the work program to meet the fast grow ing demands of the ptibllo who are turning to the forested areas of the Parific coast for summer outings and vacntlons. About 138 ac-eji of public camp grounds have been cleared and Improvement consisting of community shelters. Individual camp atnves and tables and sanita tion facilities have been installed. The most extensive Improvementa of this nature have been made at Lake of the Woods and Union Creek camp grounds, each of which la capable of accommodating several hundred persons at a time. "Those Interested In picnicking and camping In the woods are In vited to Investigate the facilities of fered by the forest service at Union creek and Dead Indian aoda springs. Both these areas provide commu nity kitchens, tables, shelters and other facilities for large picnic groupa. email oui - Uiuily wmp grounds are also offered for public enjoyment at both these places. Rus tic design Is emphasized In all the construction of these recreational arens. It Is plnnned to make similar fncllttle available at Lake of the Woods during the coming summer. Winter Sports Allied. "Winter sports also have been given a prominent place In the for ent development plan. A akl run and a alielter quipped with a large fireplace were constructed last year near Union creek ranger station long the Crater lake lilxliway. and during the winter months proved to be a very popular place for snow porta enthusiast. "Exactly ai.ooe CCC man days have been utlllred on fir fightlu; work during the past three flr sea sons. Although the boyo were almost without exception Inexperienced In fir fighting methods snd technique, they have, alter receiving Intensive training, proved to be the moat ef fective fire fighting force the lorent service haa ever known. Compari sons have been made from local forest flr records as between the last 3-yesr period and the 10-year period ms.l.llW'i which show that for the psst 3-year period there was an avrrnge of 1444 acres burned over each yesr while for the pie vlous 10-year period this amounted trt 8071 acres per year. The records a Lao show that there waa an average Meteorological Report April 30. 1038 Forecasts Medford and vicinity: Partly cloudy tonight and Tuesday; little change In temperature.

The efficiency of CCC boy as forest fire fighters Is clearly Indl. eated by analysis of these figures. "We are starting on the fourth consecutive year of the COO program and with two camps on the Rogue river forest manned with capable and experienced supervisory person nel, expect to add materially to past accomplishments during the present work season. "The value of CCC work on the Rogue river national forest since the establishment of the corps, la esti mated to be 61,343.600." THE GRANGE Phoenix Grange.

Rev. Benjamin D. Dagwell, who was paying his first official visit to Medford. Of the three most Important an nual services at St. Mark's Christ mas, Easter and confirmation It Is probable that the confirmation ser vice Is the most outstanding, ss It la. one that brings the bishop to town, because It cannot be conducted without htm presiding at the altar. Long before the processional, con sisting of choir, confirmation class slid vestrymen, had been formed at the parish hall, the church edifice was packed to Its extreme capacity with an audience that had come to witness the ceremony and hear the bishop. The class confirmed consisted of twenty-nine persons and Is believed to be the largest class In tho history of the local church. The bishop In his address to the new communicants delivered an ex ceedingly Interesting and pointed sermon, using ss his theme, "Stir Up the Gift," emphasizing the fact that a spiritual gift was bestowed upon each of them at their confirmation, and that In all their future actions they should be mindful of that gift snd conform to an upright Christian life. At the conoluslon of the service Bishop Dagwell greeted each member of the aurtience personally and re ceived their congratulations for the wonderful helpful sermon he. deliv ered. Everywhere the bishop goes he Is many times asked the question "How do you like Oregon?" to which he replies: "Oregon Is a thrlillngly beautiful state. Its fertility delights me. The rivers and small streams are refresh ing after fifteen years In a dry and thirsty land. But more than the scenery am I delighted with the Inhabitants. I have been given a cordial welcome wherever I have gone. I feel at home everywhere. The clergy have been so genuinely cordial, the laity have followed the example of the clergy. The young people are great. This climate with the co-operation of home and church Is producing Its best crop In the boys and girts, young men and women I have met here." In the evening the bishop con ducted confirmation services at St. Luke's church at Grants Pass and this morning he addressed the stu dent assembly at the Southern Ore gon Normal, and this evening he will administer the rites of confirmation at Trinity church in Ashland.
