The message was written on a letter-head nine feet wide by 12'i feet long, and each letter was five inches high. The tele gram was written on the Under wood master typewriter at the New York world's fair, the largest typewriter in the world, and was sent to the local Active club by Don Cruikshank. The telegram said: "Although I am not still an active member of the Active club, I watch their activities with more than usual interest. I want to congratulate the club as a whole and in par ticular your president, Mr. John Nagley, and Mr. Harold Larscn, and those who have worked so hard on the Medford junior high school boys patrol, which will further the safety of children and adults to a great degree. Wishing you lots of success with this and your other programs. I am sincerely yours. Don Cruik shank. The huge telegram, addressed to President Nagley, was shipped express from New York City and sent to the Hotel Medford. Mr. Cruikshank, owner of a local typewriter establishment, arranged with the Underwood company to. print and send the message. The typewriter on which the telegram was printed weighs 14 tons and is 1,728 times larger than the regular size typewriter It is 18 feet high and 21 feet wide.
