' 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.

the fact that Library club has
paid off its obligation which
it pledged a number of years
ago, tho benefit is given for all
women In the city and the
check is always a generous one
which finds its way north to
the children's hospitul.
One of tho reasons Klamath

beck, who has always had prim
ary interest in the work done
at the hospital.
