couraged by the number of our
women being absorbed into de-
tense jobs. We could name
quite a few, but there is still
room for improvement. Home

duced friends to a young lady
from N. ]. Can it be wedding
bells? Mr. and Mrs Charles
Henderson will soon move to
So Lincoln st. Mr. and Mrs
Harry Fisher will move soon to
10 Lincoln st. Reports indicate
that Roger Green Of Jerome st
is now with the aviation train
ing school at Tuskegee. 1t looks
like Roger will be Medford's
first local member Of the U S
Army Air Corps. More of our
young men expect to be called.
Medford is more than doing its
share. If you wish to live in w.
Medford, why not drop around
and find out what is for rent
and for sale? Years ago, our
people were restricted to Just
three streets. Now, and with
added incomes, there should be
no limits. Medford H. s. has its
first Colored halfback sine
Warren Evans. Jimmy Sher-
wood is playing a good game.
Incidentally, the boys hope to
have a local football game here
on Columbus Day. If so, you
want to see it.
The Traveller Says:
Well, 1 am just an old timer
thinking back to the days Of
old 1, Company, Mass 9Th Reg
iment, way back in 19O4-in
the good old days.
And let me tell you, it was
no different than it is today.
I mean that we had the same
old trouble of young girls chas-
ing after the boys in service.
It's been the same old condi-
tons for a long, long time.
And it pretty much calls for
the same cure and considera-
ton by you folks at home. I
mean that we folks here at
home can help entertain the
soldiers and sort of get 'em
away from the wild women.
You'd be surprised how many
servicemen would really appre-
ciate your home invitation for
a Sociable dinner with the rest
Of the family. Boys who are far
away from their own homes
would treasure the opportun-
fty to ring your doorbell and
find a regular home welcome.
You can do the boys a world Of
good, but how much good are
you doing? Every parent in
Medford is in position to adopt
some other mothers boy while
he is with us. The lad may not
be with us long, Are you doing
your part? Corinthians, Chap
ter 7, verses LAO inclusive, is
my Bible selection for today.
