Annual Luncheon
Of Church Women
Is Well Attended
More than 250 attended the
annual May Fellowship day
luncheon and program given
May 6 at First Presbyterian
church. This yearly event is
sponsored by Medford Council
of Church Women, of which Mrs.
J. Claude Sparks is president.
Mrs. J. R. Sides, chairman, pre
sided and Mrs. Sparks greeted
the group.
Mrs. Milton H. Akerill, Grants
Pass, speaking on "The Respon
sible Christian Family," stressed
the great importance of Chris
tian parents today and the re
sponsibility the mother has in
building the foundation for the
Christian home. The aim of a
Christian father and mother is
to develop character instead of
crime, she said, and added that
if we have enough good homes,
we will have a good world. The
attitudes of the parents make
lasting impressions on the chil
dren, she declared. "In this busy
world today, with radio, TV and
the many other activities, family
life with a get to-gether at the
evening meal, saying grace with
the family seated around the
table and discussing the family
affairs of the day, has been lost
in many homes, the speaker
said. Even in many homes the
mother has not time or does not
take time to read or have bed
time prayers with her children,
and then wonders at the great
juvenile problem confronting
the nation today, the speaker
said.
Every Christian parent must
be a missionary to her own
child; all cannot be left to the
Sunday school teacher, with less
than one hour a week for train
ing, Mrs. Akerill continued.
Children learn fast and observe
their parents closely, Mrs. Ake
rill said, and cautioned mothers
to consider three things before
repeating "gossip," is it true, is
it kind and is it necessary. She
added that if the remark cannot
be justified on this basis, it
should be left unsaid.
She quoted J. Edgar Hoover
in saying "prevention of crime
begins in the high chair." Dis
cipline of a child should start
early in life, the speaker said,
and added that by three years
of age, a child knows the, dif
ference between right and
wrong.
In closing she urged parents
not to be "stingy" with their
time when it came to family life.
Miss Verna Cingcade told of
her work as a teacher of Bible
in the Medford public schools,
stating that about 1700 children
are attending classes, or about
86 per cent of the children in
that age group. When a child
completes the full, three-year
course, which is only available
in a few schools at present, the
whole Bible will have been cov
ered, she said.
Miss Cincade was introduced
by the Rev. Donald Whitney,
president of the Jackson County
Board of Christian Education.
The exceptionally elaborate
decorations for the event were
the work of a committee headed
by Mrs. Charles W. Lemery and
Mrs. A. C. Pierce. Room decor
ations were large arrangements
of spring flowering shrubs, and
the table decorations were of
ivy and blue flowers accented
with blue bows.
Dinner Planned
By Lady Shriners
Lady Shriners will hold the
monthly meeting at the Medford
hotel Monday, May 16, at 6:30
p.m. at the Medford hotel. Cards
will follow dinner.
Any woman with Shrine affil
iation is invited to attend. The
organization is purely social, and
there are no dues.
Reservations are to be made
with Mrs. Frances Flinn, 3-1579,
