Patience, Faith
Need Of Youth,
Speaker Believes
Be patient with young people,
give them a chance and give
them a faith in which they can
believe, Dr. Raymond A. Withcy,
dean of students at Willamette
university, advised at a dinner
of Medford Methodist men at the
First Methodist church last light.
Dr. Withey spoke on the sub
ject "The Challenge of College
Youth Today."
Concerning characteristics of
college students he said that they
have a good sense of humor, that
they want to be loved nr appre
ciated, that they have much en
thusiasm, that they are learning
the art of self-discipline, that
they all seek a vocation and that
they are looking for a faith in
which to believe.
"Something Sorious"
Behind the humor of college
youth is usually something ser
ious, Dr. Withcy declared. They
ma;- be trying to make a protest
about something, give outlet to
pent up feelings or to express
affection. Youth should.be en
couraged to see the funny side
of life to prevent them from be
ing crushed later, he said. He
spoke of the need to. channel
youth's enthusiasm.
Saying that college young
people are "reluctant pagans,"
Dr. Withey brought out that the
religious program is not ade
quate. So much care has been
exercised about teaching reli
gion in connection with schools
that it has been left out entirely
or students have been led to feel
that they can take it or leave it.
The speaker said that destruc
tion of religion brings a sense
of insecurity and destroys the
sense of right and wrong. This
breeds a philosophy of exped
iency, such as communism. "We
are reaping the results of our i
13,959 Cows Tested
For Bangs Disease
Out of 13,959 cows tested for
Bang's disease in Jackson county
last year, 2.1 per cent were "re
actors," according to figures re
leased today by the state de
partment of agriculture. The per
centage of reactors in Josephine
county, where 9,263 cows were
tested, was only 1.7 per cent.
Testing was carried on in ev
ery county of the state, with 13
counties showing only one per
cent or less of reactors. Curry
county, with less than two-tenths
of one per cent reactors, leads
the entire state.
In releasing the figures. M. E.
Knickerbocker, chief of the di
vision of animal industry of the
state department of agriculture,
said that about lu.uuu more cat
tle were tested last year than
in 1948, but that the 1948 re
actors were one-fourth of one
per cent under the 1949 figure.
The percentage for the state as a
whole is 2.2 and Knickerbocker
says that Is still an impressive
rating.
Garbage Bowl Football

'Baby Sitting' a Must
Attorney General Says
Nashville, Tenn. (U.PJ Atty.
Gen. J. Carlton Loser went into
the law books to settle the prob
lem of people who leave their
children at home without baby

"It is a misdemeanor," Loser
said, quoting from public acts,
chapter 184, "to lock a child in a
house . . . and therefore to leave
such child unattended so that
such child may not escape from
the house in case of fire or oth
er calamity."
Conviction carries a penaltv of

What makes a civilization

how the challenge is met and
how it is solved. He said that

lor a career or a few years, operator's jobs offer young women good pay, pleasant associations, interesting uork.
How's this for a good job?
To attract and keep good people, we've made telephone jobs
stack up with the best. Here are some of their features:
Good Wages: Fully- experienced employees who re
ceive the top rates earned the following in 1949:
(These are actual earnings based upon 1949 income
figures reported to the U. S. Bureau of Internal
Revenue.)
Average top rate employee earnings 1949. ..weekly
Switchboard Operating Employees . $57.50
Craftsmen: Installers, Linemen, Equipment 07 aq
Maintenance Men, Cable Splicers, etc. . Of.Uo
The average for all employees, including trainees
and many with only short experience was: Switch
board Operating Employees, $49.90 a week . . . Crafts
men, $70.66. (These figures are based on weekly
average earnings reported to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics for the last four months of 1949.)
Wage increases: Regular progression increases take
beginners from the trainee period to top rates in eight
years. Last year, some 46.000 non-management tele
phone people received progression wage increases
that's about three out of four.
Benefit plan: It's one of the nation's oldest and finest
plans for pensions and protection against sickness
and accidents. Today the minimum pension is $100
a month, at age 65, including social security.
Working Conditions: Clean, pleasant surroundings in
an essential service ... a 40 hour week, or less . . . paid
vacations and holidays . . . these are just a few of the
items that make conditions enviable in the telephone
business.
Opportunity and security: Telephone work is the
kind a person can count on . . . twelve months a year.
Our employees have doubled in number in ten years.
There's always opportunity to get someplace in the
business. Of all the people working for us in 1939,
in non-management jobs and who are still with us,
a full third have been promoted to management.
Perhaps the best eiidence of the quality
of telephone jobs is that plenty of good
people hate kept coming into the sen
ice and they stay a long time. You
are probably acquainted u ith people
u bo u ork for Pacific Telephone. Sext
time you see them u by not ask how
they feel about their jobs.
