.Guild History Told
At Epiphany Meet
'.Officers Election by St. Paul's Women's Organ
, ' "ization to Serve During 1942
1 Members of St. Paul's guild were hostesses to the women
of the parish and the guild of Langell Valley on Tuesday, Jan
uary the sixth, at the parish home, Eighth and Jefferson. The
luncheon tables were placed in the form of a giant "V" and,
braving freezing weather, a large number turned out for the
ritirlntf ihm Innrhpnn hour
the newly elected officers of
'the guild were Introduced In
cluding the re-elected presi
dent, Mrs. Charles F. Schar
fensteln; first vice president,
Mrs. Ralph S. Hopkins; sec
ond vice president, Mrs. John
Morgan; secretary, Mrs. John
Cashln, and re-elected treas-
urer, Mrs. Leroy Tyrrell. Mrs.
R. Henry Anderson, Junior
past president for the coming
year, served the Epiphany
' cake with Mrs. R. Heber Rad
' cliffe the lucky finder of the
' thimble hidden within, and
Miss Hazel Morrison, the ring.
It was explained that the ring
symbolized the binding to
gether of all the world in the
love of God, the thimble sym
bolizes the missionary work
of the church and the finder
is to make some article dur
ing the year to put in the
yearly missionary box.
The president gave a short
review of the work of the
guild during the past thirty
five years and said its efforts
on behalf of the church was
"as a lighted candle in a
Christmas window, guiding
the members in their work for
the coming year. It represent
ed . teamwork, concentration
on one idea, their church,
something done whole-heartedly.
A letter written by the late
A. L. Leavitt and Mrs. Leavitt
many years ago of the early
history of the Episcopal
church in Klamath Falls was
read. Records of the guild
make an interesting contribu
tion to the pioneer history of
Klamath county. In August,
1891, Bishop Morris of Port
' land and the Reverend Pot
wine began annual pilgrim
ages through southeastern
Oregon, passing through hers
on their way to Lakeview
holding little meetings at pri
vate houses. They brought to
gether early settlers including
Mrs. "W. C Hale, Mrs. George
T. Baldwin, Mrs. Frank Ward,
Mrs. Will Worden and one or
: two others. In August, 1891,
a meeting was held at the
home of A. L. Leavitt on Main
street and in June, 1893, an
other meeting was held there
at which time their two sons
were baptised. The following
year a prayer service was held
at the residence of Mrs. Hale.
The annual visits of Bishop
Morris and Rev. Potwine were
kept up, meeting at homes in
the community. In 1907 T. W.
' Stephens and family moved
here from Ashland. Bishop
Paddock succeeded Bishop
Morris in 1908 and one of his
first acts was to form the
Guild, whose membership was
gradually augmented by new
arrivals.
' Through the activities of
the Guild the building of the
first church was accomplished.
Numbered among the first
Guild members were Mrs.
Thomas W. Stephens, Mrs.
George T. Baldwin, Mrs. C. O.
Morgan, Mrs. Frank Ward and
Mra. H. T. Chitwood, first
president of the Guild. The
first infant to be baptised into
the church was the present
Mrs. Francis Olds. With the
steady growth in the member
ship Bishop Paddock or one
of his archdeacons came more
frequently and were assisted
at intervals by other clergy.
Services were conducted in al
most any building, sometimes
in Odd Fellows hall, the li
brary and more than once in
the home of Mrs. Ward. The
first church was built the end
of 1922, mainly through the
efforts of the Guild, on the
site of the present Fremont
" school. After 18 months the
church authorities s u r r e n
dered the building to the
Klamath Falls school board.
Excerpts from a news story of
November 15, 1852: "The hope
of years of a small ever faith
ful band of Klamath county
women is to be realized today
with the laying of the corner
atone of a beautiful new Epis
copal church. The ceremony
will be conducted by Klamath
Falls lodge No. 77, A. F. &
A. M., in accordance with their
impressive ritual, and marking
the first cornerstone ever laid
by the Masons in this city.
From their temple the Masons
will march in a body to the
church site at Eighth and Jef
ferson streets under the direc
tion of Brother C. E. Dennis,
acting as deputy of the grand
master. The stone will be laid
at 3 o'clock. Rev. John
Henry Thomas, rector of the
parish, will officiate on behalf
of the church. The architects,
Holford & Lawrence, will be
represented by Howard R.
Perrin, supervising architect

ing. Officials of the church
who will be present are Carey

from the Bishop of eastern
Oregon, Rt. Rev. William P.
Remington; copies of this
newspaper (birthday edition);

Morrison, who told the story
of the season of the Epiphany
or Twelfth Night. Twelfth
Night parties used to be a
great feature of the old Eng

memorated on the feast of
Epiphany, is mentioned by St.
Augustine (A. D. 354 430).

tine, the subject of which is
the visit of the Magi. The
