She knew and remembered well Oregon history and particularly that of Southern Oregon. Through the years she was always active in those things affecting the farm- i er and farm life. From the be ginning of the administration by the Oregon State college, of the Extension Division of the Sys tem of Higher Education, she took an active part in its work. At one time she was State Chair man of the Extension group and for some years wachairman of the county committee, and was a member of it at the time of her death.

Her retentive memory made her perhaps the best informed wo man in the county upon family traditions and family history. She gave freely what informa tion she had. It will long be re gretted that a better record of it does not exist. She was active in her outdoor work. She had for many years personal supervision and oper ation of the Hanley ranch. Dur ing all of this time it has been a model establishment, and she fitted into the colonial home and the situation perfectly. There she was hospitable and kindly. She had no lingering illness; she was confined to her bed but a few days; she suffered no pain; she was happy and cheerful to the very last moment. All mem ories of her are pleasant and they will be lasting. King Victor Emmanuel of Italy is the grandson of the Sardinian king of the same name who united Italy. Spencer Childers, 90, passed away at a local hospital Thurs day morning after a brief Illness. He was born at Clarksburg, W. Va., September 18. 1849. His father, Arnold Childers, and family, crossed the plains by a train of fifty ox teams and wagons. The family made their home in Santa Rosa, California. Spencer Childers was married to Mary Elizabeth Peter at Sa linas, Calif., and to this union were born eight children, of whom seven are living. Besides his wife, Mary Childers, aged 84, survivors are Elmer, Clem and Gene of Medford; Harry and Guy of Fresno, Calif.; Bert of Middleton, Calif., and one daugh ter, Mrs. Jack Moran of Med ford, also eight grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. John Richardson of Peyton. Oregon, and two great grandchildren. The family established homes in a number of places in Cali fornia and Oregon over a pe riod of years, coming to Medford in 1884. Mr. Childers found the need of a building contractor and the same year started build ing one of the first brick build ings here. He has remained ever since. He established brick yards and furnished brick and built many of the early buildings on the Main street of this city. He was actively engaged in build ing until 1920 when he retired. He was known to a host of friends who will be grieved at his passing. Funeral arrange ment in charge of the Perl Fu neral Home will be announced later. (Continued from One.) AT LAKE 0' WOODS Three sportsman pilots of Medford, Tom Tepper, Frank Rogers, Jr. and Shelby Tuttle. flew as many airplanes to Lake of the Woods yesterday evening, spent the night there and re turned home at dawn today. It was believed to be the first such mass flight to the popular resort. All the pilots flew Piper Cubs, Tepper his own, Rogers that owned by Thomas Culbert son and Tuttle the one belong ing to the Medford flying club. The flight took 25 minutes each way, according to Tuttle. The three young men carried sleeping bags in their planes and spent the night near their ships. They sat down on the flying field northeast of the lake and about a mile from the resort.

The nazi high command also reported that German U-boats, in a new outburst of underseas warfare, had sunk 86,543 tons of British merchant shipping, while nazl speedboats torpedoed two armed British steamers to taling 12.400 tons and "shot" two others totaling 20.000 tons, and German dive bombers sank four S. 000-ton transports a grand total of 138,943 tons. Soviet Alms Veiled Soviet Russia's aims in the European conflict meanwhile grew more obscure. New columns of red army troops and mechanized equip ment were reported arriving in Bessarabia, the Rumanian pro vince seized by Russia - last week, thereby strengthening the belief that Stalin is planning further demands on the harass ed little Balkan kingdom. Considerable mystery still clings to the Soviet grab in the Balkans and the Baltic as well. with some observers interpret ing them as moves to counter Germany's sweeping conquest of half Europe. Britons found a comforting warmth in this theory, hoping that eventually Russia and Ger many would come to grips. But today the Moscow news paper Pravda, the official com munist party organ, asserted that Soviet moves were directed "against plans of the British- French war mongers" and not against Germany. $1 Passports Vancouver, B.
