The romance of the pioneer days
again manifested Its appeal to a great
crowd of descendants and friend
who gathered from all parts of Jack
son county Sunday afternoon at th

E. N. Mallory, the present commun
ity pastor, was assisted In the serv
ices by Rev. Joseph Knotts, Rev.
James Hamilton, Dr. Jouett P. Bray.
Rev. C. H. Freldenburg of Talent and
Rev. L. F. Belknap.
Old time gospel hynms were sung
by those who filled the church burn
ing and overflowed the grounds. A
loud speaker was Installed ao that
the many outside might share In the
service.
The sermon by Dr. Sherman L.
Divine, paator of the First Presbyter
Ian church of Medford. was from
the text "When your children shall
ask their fathers In time to como.
saying, 'What mean these stones?'
Then ye shall let your children
know." Joshua IV-21-22.
He eald In part. "Since the day
when God said unto Abraham In the
long ago 'Get thee up from thy
kindred and thy father's house and
go unto the land that I will show
thee.' man has been captivated by
the lure of the West. And as Abm-
ham's first act on reaching far away

the pioneer has sooner or later per
formed his religious duty. The fouu
datlon of all home and community
life is In religion. Circumstances may
alter many things but the hearts
of men sooner or later return to re
build the altars of their fathers.
"Following the great migration of
1853 when a large company of new
settlers came Into the Ro?ue RWer
valley, the Rev. Joseph S. Smith be
gan the work of establishing the
church. The organization was effected
on June 1. 1854. Steps were takn
for the building of a church and
assisted by the Misses Overbeck and
Royal who carried the subscription
lists Into every home. Into saloons
and wayside camps the building was
begun.
'The Territory of Oregon having
summoned Mr. Smith to serve as Its
congressman at Washington, the Rev.
T. F. Royal came on the field and
securing a gift of the present site
from James dugsage with the aid
of loyal workers, both men and wo

WEST CHESTER, Pa. (DPI Mis
fortune and back luck have dogged
the troll of Sergt. J. A. Foster of
the 13th black watch, 48th high
landers, Canadian army, for many
years but the tougher, the breaks the
harder he fought back.
Stranded here with his wife and
two children while en route ftom
Miami, Fla., to Hamilton, Ontario,
In a crude pushcart. Foster told the
story of his life, a story of Ill-luck,
personal injury and financial desti
tution.
He said that during his life he
built 14 homes and lost them all.
His five daughters, mother and two
sisters were killed In a hurricr.n.
He la disabled from world war
wounds and la -"dead broke."
"But I'm not discouraged," he said.
"I'm not giving up. I'm going to
start all over again."
Foster, who Is 66. Is taking his
wife and two children, Beatrice, 11,
and Willie, 10, to his native Canada
to collect a war pension. The fam
ily's mode of transportation is a
home-made cart which Is propelled
by hand.
"We've been on the road for moro
than 100 days," Foster revealed while
here. "We've crossed 1 8 mountains,
weathered all sorts of storms, and
never asked for help."
He keeps a small tin can fastened
on the side of his cart with a sign,
"Donations." Occasionally a stranger
drops a coin In the slot.
"One day." Foster said, "a Scotch
man named McTiddler came along
and looked us over. By a coincident:
it happened that he served with the
Canadian forces In the World war,
In the same company of highland errf
that I did. We had a long talk to
gether and he gave me a dollar.
"Some people make fun of us. But
I do not let that bother me. I won-.
der how many of thern would have
the spunk to do what I am doing
and keep on after what I've been
through." '
Five of his homes were destroyed
successively by flood, hurricane and
fire. In 1920, his Moorhaven. Fla.,
home was devastated by a hurricane
which killed his mother, daughters
and sisters. His last home was de
stroyed at Key Largo, Fla., In 1936.
There's a silver plate under my
scalp where I- was wounded that
makes my head throb when I lie
down to sleep at night," Foster said.
"My teeth hurt sometimes -tb
ones that wore driven up Into my
gums when I was hit In the mouth
by shrapnel.
"But outside of that, I'm all right."

"IT'S CAMELS FOR MEI " declares Jane
Fauntz Manske, whose brilliant diving hat
brought her national fame. She adds: "After

Camels certainly add to the joy of living.

MARSHALL WAYNE, Olympic platform
diving champion, speaks decidedly for Camels.
"After a strenuous competition I get a 'lift'
with a Camel," he says. "And Camels sure
help my digestion to hum along too."
