MEDFORD. MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1943. PAGE FIVE EDITING WEEKLY IS New York Mirror's Ted Friend Reports as Owner of Little Susanville Paper. By Mick Bourn ' (United Press Correspondent) Susanville, Cal., Oct. 19. U.R) Ted Friend, the New - York Mirror's Broadway columnist who quit the bright lights to re lax in a hammock and run the little weekly .. newspaper here folded his hammock today. - He hasn't had time to. put a bulge in it. Friend gave up his 12-year-run of Broadway, a well-known bv-line and a bow from all the jTheadwaiters when he bought the spanked to bed his third weekly eight-page issue, he wanted one thing understood: - Harder Than City Country editors work harder than city editors. "I work harder than I ever did in New York," he said. have to be all over the place. dig up all my own news, chop my own wood and split my own infinitives." Ted said at least he'll never get overspecialized like most city newspapermen. "Not only do I do all the writing," he said, "but I have to chase the ads, drum up cir culation and manage the print shop. It's lucky the ink smells better up here in the. high rwnoer. Reversing the traditional "Local Boy Makes Good in Big City", role, Ted has graduated from writing of celebrities in the Stork club to headlining the doings at the church bazaar. 2,100 Circulation Susanville is nestled in the Mount Lassen country in the heart of the high Sierra Nevada mountains. Lumber and box making are the principal busi nesses. The Advocate circula tion 2,100 is 78 years old. Friend is 45. His wife, Dorothy, a former New York press agent, prob ably .will pitch in to handle society news later, he said. The people of Susanville seem to like him all right; he has been given , the official nod by invitations 'i to the Rotary club and the 7 Methodist Men's club. ' ""Best climate and the nicest people in the world here," he said. "But don't ever let them tell you that a country editor Layettes Offered As Bonus F or Few Months Knitting Minneapolis, Oct. 19 (U.R) The Minneapolis Knitting Works used the shortage of baby garments today to solve the manpower shortage.

L. LUNSFOHD iNE of the most phenomenal records of growth among American 1 denominations has been set by the General Council Assemblies of God. With 118 conereKations and 6.700 members in 1916, the body has grown in twenty-seven years to 4,840 congregations and annroxlmatelv 225.000 members. already tne largest denomination of its doctrinal persuasion In America. ' Officials of the denomination regard 1914 as the year ot its birth. However, the origins of the several movements which were united to form the general council date from the beginning of the century. - Though one of the youngest, it la Rer. H. G. Downey Pastor, Assembly of God. About that time there occur red simultaneously in several Darts of the United States, as well as in Canada, South Ameri ca. India. Norway and tne Hrltlsn Isles, remarkable Pentecostal re vivals. As tne several groups spread and became acquainted with each other, it became ap parent to the leaders that a cen tral body was needed to acceler ate and conserve their work. At a meeting of the represen tatives of the several bodies, call ed at Hot Springs, Ark., in April, iui4, tne general council was formed. Statistics Reveal Growth Two years later at the Fourth General Council Meeting in St. Louis, Mo., the statement of fun damental truths, doctrinal state ment of the body, was adopted and the complete organization of the general council was effected. Comoarative statistics reveal the phenomenal growth of the group, with 8,700 members in 1916, the body grew to 48,000 in 1926, an Increase of 619 per cent. At the end of the next decade they numbered 148,000, an in crease of 208 per cent for the decade. The remarkable rate of growth continues, the number of mem bers having increased from 148, gregations are located In each of the lorty-eignt states, witn me possible eceptlon of Vermont. Prospects frr continued rapid growth are revealed in the re port that 6,500 Sunday schools are affiliated with the body, ex ceeding the number of organized congregations by more than 1,500. Sunday school enroll ment is reported at 500,000. Similarly phenomenal is the denomination s record of having established, in the twenty-nine years of its existence, forty-two foreign mission fields, staffed with 380 missionaries and 1,250 native workers. The sum of $700,000 annually passes through the denomination's department of foreign missions. Home Missions Localized While the home missionary program is largely carried on upon a voluntary basis generally under the supervision of the of ficials of the district in which it is located, the general council is sponsoring a project in the moun tains ot Kentucky and West Vir ginia employing eighty mission aries. The general council maintains one school, Central Bible Insti tute at Springfield, Mo. How ever, at least eight other Bible schools are affiliated with the de nomination under district or lo cal supervision.

In addition, the publishing house supplies the denomina tion's Sunday school publication as well as Its books and other promotional materials.
