My Interest In the Teen-Ate club
Is and has been twofold since
Its earliest beilnnlnt. As an active
member of the First Presbyterian
church I have lonx been concerned
with the welfare of not onlv uur
own Presbyterian younc people hut
the young people of the entire city

city recreation committee some
years aro save me the opportunity
to render worthwhile assistance to
them. I tisve sal In on their coun.

their problems mv own. Now that
they have reached this milestone of
success, as evidenced by their snlrn.
did bulldini I rejoice with them.
I pledre them my continued sup

At last a place has been provided,
where our youth can meet under
proper guidance, with a good whole

ef'orts of a few and the heln of
msny. this has been accomnlished.
II must be remembered that manv
of our younr people who will lake

This fact alone should recom

Congratulations ts ail who made

The new Teen-Age center has mv
heartiest endorsement and support.
F. C. Wlssenbach. rector, St.
Prill's Eo's-onnl church
It Is with great satisfaction that
I hear of the new organisation of
th Teen-Age center for the bovs
and girls, and bv (hem, of their own
clnb. The running of their own or
ganization, their considered activ
ities, seem to me to be the nucleus
around which much of the social
activities of the vounrsters of our
ettv can be channelled Into useful,
decent and satisfying wavs.
With the election of their pres.
ent officers my hope and praver
for the club Is that It mav tunc
tlon as a center for truly soclsl
minded action for the good and for
oleasure and also as a means for
hcalthv and wholesome rerrratlan
for all tyoes of boys and girls of the
community.
The rlub itself, as well as the ad
visors and counselors of the club,
are to be congratulated for the es
tablishment of this rlub and lo be
thanked by the members of the
whole community for their Interest
and for the lime given by them.
With a prayer for success In the
venture.

I have been Interested In the
Teen-Age group since I was a frosh.
I think It's a good deal. The trouble
Is thai most of the kids here have
had no place to go to do as they
wished. The Klamath llasln Teen
Age renter will give us some place
of our own, and a chance In prove
ourselves to the adults of the com
munity. Samuel Smith, superintendent of
I recreation. City of Klamath Falls-
There la an urgent need for a
place In our cllv for the teen-age
grouo to meet and enjoy wholesome
rrcrrntlon. This fart Is recognised
by all of us but we have been un
successful In the past In provid
er such a renter for a very long
period.
The Klamath flasin Teen-Age
center Is now ready to nnen. There
Is every reason to believe II will
lie a success. The plans have been
carefully laid bv both the adults
and the teen-agers, the program
of arllvlllrs Is good, the location
and arrangement of the center Is
sutlsfartory, and the leadershln
good and resneeted by both the
adults and youth.
I wish lo assure the Klamath
Basin Teen-Age center of mv sun
port and orge all teen-agers to take
advantage of II and hone parents
will encourage their voung men and
women to participate In the pro
gram. Orvllle Hemlltnn. chief of nollce
I have followed the develonment
of the Flamath llasln Teen-Age
center with keen Interest. Rereral
attemnts at this tvpe of activity
hsve failed, hut the nresent center
seems to be more solldtv organised
and has been plsnned by both youth
and adults.
The Ktsmath Basin Teen-Age
center will prove one of the best
activities for our teen-aee group
and will be a strong fsrtnr In proper
guidance of this group.
I am giving the center mv full
simport and urge the peonte of
Klemath county to supoorl II and
the youth to lake advantage of It
L. L. Low, sheriff of Klamath
count v
I consider the establishment of
the Klamath Basin Teen-Age ren
ter a most worthy protect, as it
will give our youth a olace to hold
social gatherings, a place for read
j In, for nlavlng games and. In fart.
will afford those of teen-age a
I nlsce for clean, wholesome recrea
tion, thereby eliminating street
walking and some of our Juvenile
delinquency.
The cltlsenry of our city and
county should back up this worthy
rause 100 per cent, for with prooer
sl.pervl.ion I feel II Is Indlsnensahle.
Let's rive our youth something
worthwhile.
Ronald R Hewitt, probation of
ficer. Juvenile department, circuit
ci.urt of Klnmath county
As a result of the complesily of
modern living, the home Is no long
er the center of family recreation.
Those lulerrsled In the development
of lelsurr-tlme activities for teen
age youth have recognised the Im
portant role of the youth center In
such a program. The tceu-age linys
and girls are thus offered an up.
niirlunlty to demonstrate bv par
ticipation that they can take their
dace in the life of the community.
Therefore It Is with a strong hrllrf
hi the rlllfcus of tomorrow that I
wish the Teen-Age eenler and Its
program every possible success.
K W. Tlchenor. seriieiint. Oregon

It Is mv firm belief that the Teen
Age centee should he msde a per
manent thing In this county as I
am sure that II will have a great
tendency to hold Juvenile rirlln
nuencv at a minimum. 1 do not be

llnquenev In Klamath countv as
some peoole would have us believe,
however, I am sure that grouns such
as our Teen-Age center will cause
delinquency to hi! an all time low.
Paul l.andrv, cltv councilman -The
establishment of the Klam

of Hie best movements that hss
