Alexander's Swing
Band Here Saturday
At Oriental Garden
Each time a elaas of candidates Is
given the vows of American citizen
ship In U. 8. district court here, the
Jackson County Chamber of Com
merce sends to each new naturalized
citizen a letter expressing congratu
lations and compliments upon com
pleting the requirements for passing
the examinations.
That the chamber's letters are ap-
, predated and strike a sympathetic
note is evidenced by the expressions
of thankfulness received in reply
from the new citizens.
So distinctive a reply was received
from one of the candidates in the
class recently naturalized here that
by order of Eugene Thorndlke cham
ber president, It haa been framed
and hung on a wall at the chamber
of commerce.
The letter was received from Jor
dan P. Theodoroff of Grant Past.
The penmanship is so nearly perfect
that It appears to have been done by
mechanical means. Done in the style
of printing, It is considered a splen
did example of the fine art of psn-manshlp.
The letter, addressed to Mr. Thorn
dike, follows:
"Dear Sir:
"It was very kind of you Indeed to
send me that letter of Oct. fi and
congratulate my becoming a natural
Ized citizen of the United States and
I wish to express my sincere apprecia
tion. It reflects so nloely on your
Chamber of Commerce, whose presi
dent you are and on the City of Med-
ford as well. It displays the encour
aging attitude the people of this
community holds toward a foreign
born. It was my long dream to become
a citizen of this great country and
now, when that dream came true, I
feel more than happy.
"I wish to extend my thanks to all
good people In the court house as
well as any other place, who helpt
with direction, cooperation and ad
vice and made me able to be fit for
the tests and requirements I had to
meet. On my part I will strive more
than ever before to work for the good
of this country and be worthy of the
citizenship bestowed on me,"
