Giving Faith to Others Important
Aim for Writers, Says Authoress
The writer who gives faith to people will have done a won
derful and marvelous thing, Mrs. E. H. Hedrick, Oregon author
ess, told guests at the 12th annual Matrix table Friday night.
In every civilization there is a crucial time in which man begins
to analyze the worth of that civilization and wonder if it is
worthwhile. It is at that time that authors should do their utmost
to preserve faith in the people.
She also urged that young writ
ers take their inspiration from
America and not copy the defeat
ism of Europe as was done in the
last war.
At a gathering of members of
Theta Sigma Phi, national women’s
journalism honorary, and Pot and
Quill, writing honorary, after the
banquet Mrs. Hedrick said that
writers do their best work when
writing something they know well
from their own experience.
Her first story was published in
the Saturday Evening Post, “after
I had completely given up hope.”
Mrs. Emma C. McKinney, pub
lisher of the Hillsboro Argus, who
will celebrate her fortieth anni
versary as publisher in April, was
presented with a scroll in recog
nition of her learning and distinc
tion in newspaper work. Mrs. Mc
Kinney started her work in journ
alism when 17 years old and re
turned to this work in 1900 after;
the death of her husband.
She told the assembled journal- I
r
ists and women outstanding in
creative arts that she envied them
for living in an era when women
occupied every position. “When I
was a girl, the only occupations
were dressmaking, clerking and
millinery. Now men do some of the
millinery.” -
She also said that she envied
them for their school of journal
ism. "When I started I don’t think
the word journalism was in my
vocabulary. What I learned, I
learned the hard way. I learned to
set type by hand. I also learned to
be pressman and do various other
things about the shop, and I even
learned to run a linotype.”—which
vocation she suggested to young
women of today, saying that any
one who knew how to type could
learn to run a linotype.
Marie Rogndahl, popular so
prano, sang “Ave Maria,” and
“Caro Nome” from Verdi’s opera
Rigoletto. She was accompanied
by Ruth Baker.
