Pickin' Pears Ntws, Gossip, Comment From Camp White By SID HOLLINGSWORTH About eight months ago the American Legion auxiliary mov ed into one of the unoccupied buildings converted into head quarters far the various service organizations, to provide an "on the spot" clearing house lor a few odd Jobs around the home. Mrs! Thelma Williams, depart ment hospital chairman of the auxiliary, was put In charge and today her activities are so nu merous that it has become neces sary for her to move to larger Quarters, now In course . of preparation. In addition to providing head' quarters for the four Legion auxiliaries . (Medford, Ashland, Central Point and Grants Pass) which make periodic visitations, Mrs. Williams' office grants small loans. Men who are temporarily out of funds and drawing pension may "borrow" for incidental ne- .cessities. For those who are ex tremely hard up and worthy, a small cash loan may be advanc ed until "pay day. "I have found the veterans to be very reliable in these trans actions," Mrs. Williams says. "Of course, I miss out with a few, but I guess that is the way it is In all such undertakings: She estimates that an average of 125 men are currently using this service. In addition to this responsi bility. Mrs. Williams also han dles the cooperative "clothing closet." a clothing service pro viding men who are in need with apparel from a stock furnished by contributions from the Amer ican Gold Star Mothers and the the American Legion auxiliary. sha also handles a picture service, taking orders for photo graphs made at special functions. Ana i also write letters, wrap packages, receive and refer serv ice claims and collect Legion dues," the adds.
