Old Scrapbooks Displayed At Meeting A display of old scrapbook«, dating back to 1926, were shown at a meeting of the Coquille Busi ness and Professional Women held in the Junior auditorium of the Community building on Monday evening. A review of past accomplish ments and activities of the club, prepared by Mrs. Inez Chase, was read by Mrs. Laura Brandon. An outstanding feature of the program was a showing of clay figures, molded by a fourteen- year-old boy, Lonnie Kellen berg- er. The figures made by the use of the boy’s hands, a razor blade and a toothpick, were cleverly fashioned to rerpesent East In dians, and various pioneer char acters. The showing was ar ranged by Mjss Inez Rover, music and arts chairman. During the business ' period, plans for the Southwestern Ore gon district B. P. W. conference which will be held in Coquille in March were discussed. We’re proud of the fact — ourers are among the farmers of Caos most loyal subscribers and read-county. A report on the “CARE" pack ages sent to Europe during recent months was heard. The members voted to discon tinue the B. P. W. shelf at the Co quille Public library. In future the books, donated by the club, will be distributed throughout the library according to classification. Dessert was served at the close of the meeting, the hostesses be ing Mrs. Helen Lundquist and Mrs. Octavia McCue. • • Democrats Slate Meeting Sunday The Democratic central com mittee has called a meeting of the precinct committeemen and committeewomen for Sunday, Jan. 16 at 2 p. m. in the Coos Bay American Legion hall at 4th and Anderson, it was announced today by Louise Hendershott, chairman.

These are the issues which our organization, the International Woodworkers of America, has long pointed out must be enacted if our economy is to survive and the people are to enjoy the pros perity to which they are justly en titled. We cannot sit idly back and-ex pect to find this urgently needed legislative program enacted into law without our citizens giving individually and collectively through community organizations their material support. The special privileged and self ish groups are constantly busy exerting too much influence and pressure upon our Congressmen.
