Anypn In Southern Oregon et any tims mqy find
himself in immdiate need of the services of Mercy Flights.
Ask any of the more than 430 patients who learned this

those subscribers who do have need of a flight, more than
get their money's worth. In a medical emergency, they can
be taken anywhere within a 400-mile radius of Medford,

We urge every family in Southern Oregon and Northern
California, within a 150-mile radius of Medford, to join
