' We thought this an Interesting "story as told by Major Stan Stalgcr recently returned from Shanghai. In a remote part of China his outfit camo upon a tiny 'mission where a lone priest and . his ragged little ' charges were housed. Tho children were '. without warm clothing and the priest begged the officer to send ; garments to him if he possibly could do so. Later the men ar j' ranged for pounds and pounds of I, warm clothes and started back t by plane to deliver the bundles, j- En route they were forced to ".' throw their cargo overboard i.'when engine trouble developed . nd thoy felt right sad because ;i they could not fulfill the earnest priest's pleas for his shivering ;. brood. When Major Stalgcr was n en route home he picked up an ? issue of Catholic Digest and read n amazing story. The priest thanked the men for their thoughlfulncss but wondered if fiarachutcs were no longer used n dropping supplies! It seemed that despite the fog which blank eted the area ui which the troubled plane was flying, the men unwittingly dumped their cargo directly over tho mission. Mrs. Samuel A.

Date Named For Doernbecher Tea Plans arc being whipped Into shane by the two chairmen of the unnuul Doernbecher hospital benefit bridge teu which is spon sored by the Klamuth Falls Womon's Library club. Tho date is Saturday afternoon. February 10. In tin- ballroom of the Willurd hotel. Chairman or the ten is Mrs, George H. Adler and bridge chuir man Is Mrs. Wulter Hrown. Both women will unnounce their committees luter. All funds derived from tho benefit bridge tta go to tho Doern becher hospital for children In Portland. If there Is any worth while project which Klamath women sponsor, thin ono is high on the list.
