Widner Horn
From Vacation
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Widner
of 819 East Ninth street, re
turned yesterday from a few
days' visit in Tacoma with their
son, John Widner and family.
On their return south they
stopped at Albany with Mrs.
L. E. Bland.
Who helped
the Good
Samaritan?
TiERHAPS you've forgotten
JTone thing about the Good
Samaritan. He was in a hurry.
He had a living to nuke. He
bad to get on to Jericho. So he
carried the stranger he had be
friended to an inn... planked
down two shillings . . . and said
to the host "Take care of him.'
Not even the Samaritan could
do all his cood works in per
son. He had to transform that
innkeeper into an early day
Community Chest. He had to
give from both the heart and
the pocket. The Book says "Go,
and do thou likewise."
Like the Samaritan's inn
keeper, Community Chests tend
for you those left battered
beside life's highway. For you,
they shelter the hurt and help
less strangers by the thousands.
They build character amongst
the young. They make better
American citizens. They do this
for you because you cannot
possibly do it for yourself.
Chests work with money.
They transmute dollars into
golden deeds. But their money,
like yours, doesn't go as far as
it did. Vet today's berserk world
makes their deeds more neces
sary than ever.
There is just one answer.
VUien your Chest drive opens,
toddle 'round with your two
shillings. Give all you can af
ford, write your own ticket
but urile one. Be a Good Sa
maritan. THURSDAY, 8-9 P.M.

of Commerce were on record
today as favoring re-establish-mcnt

train on the Southern Pacific
Siskiyou line between Portland
and San Francisco. The service
was discontinued several years
ago on the plea of economy.
After voting to request re
establishment of through serv
ice, the board referred details
to the transportation committee.
It was stated that other organ
izations, some in towns not on
the railroad, were cooperating
in asking the Southern Pacific
company to restore the Portland
San Francisco through service
The board said that serious ap
peal would be marie to the com
pany. Reference was made to
rumors that the company was
thinking of restoring the service
on its own initiative but there
was no substantiation of this.

Zonta Talk Gives Insight on
Heavy Vocational Train
ing Under Way Here.
Monday was defense day with
members of Zonta International,
who met for luncheon at the
Hotel Medford. E. H. Hcdrick,
superintendent of schools, spoke
cn Medioid's vocational classes
for national defense, defense
songs were led by Effie Kurtz
and a defense pie, concocted by
the president. Miss Louise Bas
ford, formed the centerpiece of
the table.
There are now two defense
classes being conducted In Med
ford, Mr. Hedrick stated, one in
aviation sheet metal work and
the other in electric, welding
with a marine slant. There are
212 classes in Oregon, embrac
ing everything in the defense
Industry. Sixty-five youths, who
have completed courses in Med
ford. have been employed in
tne Boeing and Lockheed plants.
The Medford classes are both
conducted at night now to en
able those participating to hold
jobs during the day because of
the critical labor situation, Mr.
Hedrick stated. The schools have
applications from more youths
than they can place in the class
in marine welding at this time.
Training Time Cut
A definite indication of the
constantly increasing demand
for skilled labor in the defense
industries is evidenced in the
operation of the classes, Mr.
Hedrick, who is the local co
ordinator, explained. At first
12 weeks time was devoted to
the course. Industries are now
calling for the boys who have
nad just five weeks' training
and are considering placing
those with three weeks training
The Medford schools are now
considering opening classes in
civilian defense he stated, and
one of the first moves will prob
ably be to make first aid courses
compulsory.
Learn On Thing
The vocational courses train
youths to do just one thing in
particular in the line of sheet
metal work and welding. This
specialization is done for two
reasons, Mr. Hedrick explained.
it is the trend in mass produc
tion to speed up activity and it
will, after the emergency, pre
vent an over supply of skilled
labor. He then explained that
a man ran be trained to do one
particular angle of a job in a
very short time, whereas he
would not be able to master
the whole trade in that period
When these especially trained
youths are released they will
not be masters of the trade and
will not take the places of those
who have given years to the
work. The question of Just

Preceding Mr. Hedrick'f talk
a short business session was
conducted by Miss Basford and
reports were made by the secre
tary, Mabel Conger, and Stella
Merrick, chairman of the rum
mage sale committee. The fol
lowing committee was appointed
to make plans for the next
club initiation: Margaret Fa
brick, Mable Conger, Jacque
Lenox, Thora Lawrence and
Janie Smith.
