Benjamin D. Dag well, Portland, Episcopal bishop for Oregon, said In a talk before the weekly luncheon-meeting of the Lions club In the Hotel Med ford Wednesday. Bishop Dagwell said he was not concerned with the influ ence the cantonment being built here would have on Medford but the influence Medford would have on the cantonment. Point ing out that the American army Is not professional, he empha sized that. Just as in civilian life, a butcher, baker, a doctor or a mechanic, when a soldier, will enjoy the . same associations whenever they ara available, at the cantonment or in Medford. Bishop Dagwell referred to the unity of purpose attained by this country in prosecuting the war. "Selfish motives are being set aside, everything we hold dear is at stake and therefore we can no longer seek a life of ease. Bishop Dagwell came here on behalf of the solicitation -of funds for the enlargement of the Medford Episcopal church and expanded recreational fa cilities for the soldiers who will occupy Camp White. METERFOESASK (Coitlsued Prom Pas. Ob.) public hearing or an election be held to determine if the meters should be installed. As it was believed it would take some time for an election, it was agreed to hold a public hearing and give the public the right to decide. A committee was appointed by Mr. Thorndike to make arrange ments regarding the hearing. Since then it appears the board. without regard to a hearing, is making arrangements for the in stallation of meters, and the committee so appointed now re quests that the hearing be held, that the water board now set the time and place of such hear ing, and that public notice be given thereof. "The citizens of Medford are earnestly requested to be pres ent and express their desires at such meeting so that the water board may have the expression of the public, and be guided thereby." AT A group of Medford business and professional men attended an Informal dinner Wednesday night at the Dutch Mill, on the south Pacific highway, in honor of A. S. Rosenbaum, retired dis trict agent of the Southern Pa cific company.
