O
P.-T. A. Activities
County P.-T.A.
Working on cooperation with
the League of Women Voters the
Jackson County Council of Par
ents and Teachers will stress the
need for emergency youth pro
tection in Jackson county. At
present the county has no juve
nile officer and reports have in
dicated the need for one and
with an increase In population
the need has become greater.
Value of such an officer has
been shown by the worthwhile
part-time work that has been
done, but to serve the best in
terest of Jackson county young
people, a full time juvenile of
ficer is needed the P-T. A. and
League Women feel.
To give parents and teachers
and the general public an idea
of the protective services, a juve
nile officer could give, the coun
ty council executive committee
of P-T.A. at its recent meeting
planned a comprehensive panel
discussion on "Emergency Youth
Protection."
This will be presented at the
county council meeting April 22
at Central Point Grange hall.
Mrs. Frank W. Blum, president
of Oregon P-T.A. has been in
vited to act as chairman and
will be assisted by local resi
dents who are in close contact
with youth and the problems
which confront them.
Attending the county council
executive meeting were Mes
dames J. K. Hoey and Dee New

Governor Charles A. Sprague,
in a recent statement on the
United China Relief drive, said:
"The first victims of ruthless
aggression in the post-world war
period were the people of China.
They continue subject to inva
sion, pillaging and oppression,
yet with distinguished courage
and endurance they continue
their resistance. China is en
titled to the sympathy and the
material aid of the people of the
United States. Our consistent
policy has been to uphold the
integrity of China. We feel that
policy is Important in our own
interest and contributes to world
peace and stability. Support to
China is the surest way to en
able China survive.
'The United China Relief
campaign now getting under
way in this state affords an
opportunity for the American
people to help minister to hu
man need and to show our
sincere sympathy with the cause
of China. Our gifts will not
only bring relief to the hungry,
the injured, the dispossessed, it
will bring them new faith to
fight on to final victory.
I heartily endorse this cam
paign in Oregon and make a
personal appeal to the generos
ity of the people of this state.
Let us give out of purse and
heart for the relief of
afflicted neighbors across
Pacific."

him.
'The general said Arthur -was

he might catch cold," the smil

"But look at him he needs a
haircut badly. His father is not
around now to stop it, so let's
trim It up." '
Reporters attending the gen

noted that MacArthur himself
needed a haircut, but concluded
that he was much too busy to
have it done.

'The Idea was tried out in a
small way by a fruit packing
concern at Medford four years
ago, and it spread to several
others. Shipments increased so
surprisingly that close to a half
million gift boxes were - ex

"These pears are distinctive In
flavor, for Cornice la very fussy
about where It will consent to
grow commercially, is seldom
found for sale in the general
market, is practically unknown
to thousands who have never
seen or tasted one.
"Who orders the gift boxes?
All sorts of folks. And it's a
cash business, the most of which
comes by mail to the packing
houses. . Orders run all way
from one to 1.800 boxes, the
latter figure representing an
order from a big corporation
that wanted to remember each
one of its many customers at
Christmas."
