LAKE 0
WOODS
Bedrolls, lunches and eager 4
H girls arrived at the healtn cen
ter Sunday morning at 10:311,
ready to leave tor cool, inviting
Lake o' the Woods.
An hour later two school bus
es, pilea nigh with luggage, and
noisy with gay shouts ana songs
of children, were rolling lake
ward with no stop-overs planned
en route.
Before leaving, the girls, rang
ing in age from 10 to 16 years,
were examined by Dr. Peter Ro-
zendal, ruamatn county puDiic
health officer. Weights were
checked and neignts measured
by Lt. Marilyn ttryan, assisted
by Mrs. Lydia Howard.
A wild. Kay scramble to
choose bunks lollowed the ar
rival of the buses, with first
choices juggled several times un
til close friends were above, be
low or next to each other, in the
two-deck dormitory beds.
After sleeping arrangements
had been settled, those who had
not eaten their lunches on the
way found shady spots to picnic.
No program was planned for
Sunday, the time being devoted
to getting settled and becoming
acquainted with the surround
ings, but vesper services were
held about the campfire in the
evening.
The camp buildings, used by
various organizations for sum
mer camps, will be occupied by
4-H club members from Klam
ath county for the next two
weeks. They are located about
50 yards from the lake shore,
where a fine shallow beach in
sures safe swimming.
Swimming and boating, under
safety supervision by Cpl. Rob
ert Henderson, marine lifeguard,
will be high points of the week's
program. Lt. Bryan is on duty at
all times to take control of any
emergency.
Instructive classes in hand
craft, planned entertainment
each evening, and plenty of good
food and exerciSe, guarantee a
wonderful outing for the chil
dren, some of whom earned the
vacation through scholarships in
4-H club work.
A new bulletin received from
Oregon State college shows a
higher percentage of its farm
boys and girls are enrolled in
4-H club work than any other
tate west of New Jersey.
Oregon also led in percentage
of club members in ratio to the
total number of all rural youth.
This includes non-farm boys and
girls living in small communities
as well as those living on farms.
"If 4-H work is good for those
who are members, it must also
be good for others,'" Harry Sey
mour, state 4-H club leader
stated.

EMPLOYMENT MEET
In an effort to meet post-war
employment problems which
will rise with the war's end, a
post-war planning conference of
the United States employment
service was held in Portland
July 26 and 27. Attending from
Klamath Falls was John G.
Schroeder, senior employment
officer witn ine uses.
As an outcome of this meet
ing Schroeder is planning to
make a survey of conditions in
local industries to determine the
number of employees needed in
peace-time production. This lo
cal picture will include prospec
tive work of the city and county.
Besides the readjustment of lo
cal industries, there will be a re
adjustment of soldiers to civilian
life and the replacement of civil'
ians who have been on war jobs
According to Schroeder, approx
imately 11 per cent of the nopu
lation is in the armed forces. As
these men will replace many
civilians now working in indus
tries, tne unemployment service
expects to have as many people
unemployed at the end of the
war as were were in laid.
There will be another post
war planning conference Sep
tember' 21 and 22. This will be
held in Klamath Falls.
