o 0 EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) Oregon Will Be Represented in Cathedral Sunday G Washington, D.C. Oregon will be remembered In prayers at Washington Cathedral. Sun- O day, Aug. 14, when the state flag, together with the Amer- O ican flag will be carried at the head of the ecclesiastical pro cessions during the 11 and 4 n o'clock , services. Long a tradition at the ca thedral, this state service is one of . the many events of national and international importance which take place here. Through out the year it becomes the scene of state funerals, of me morial services, of special days of dedication and prayer. Cler gymen of many denominations are guest preachers in its pul- nit. o The, as yet, unfinished cathe Ait hoc nn inral surjDorting con free ation but is being built and maintained by Americans ev erywhere, thousands of whom nro members of the National O r-athpHral association. Stones and other architectural fea O tures given as memorials or thank-offerings contribute stead ily towards its building program. Such gifts range from single O Miilriins? stones costing from $10, up through much larger sums needed for carved ana sculptured pieces, stained glass windows, turrets, arches and even complete bays. In Oregon, as in other states, active National Cathedral asso ciation committees work con stantly to aid in telling the story of Washington Cathedral and in raising funds for its completion. Mrs. Charles Flegel of Ontario is regional chairman of eastern Oreson. Mrs. George T. Gerlinger of Portland, is regional chairman of western Oregon. .Congregational Dialog Service, Lake Trip Slated Two somewhat unusual serv ices are on the schedule of the G Congregational church next Sun day.
