Representatives of the Ashland
branch of the American Assocla-
Uon of University Women met at
a round table discussion before
the assembled Girls* League of the
Ashland High School Wednesday
morning, April 26. The round
table was in charge of Mrs. Rob­
ert Dodge, president of the
AAUW, who stated that the
round table discussion was to ful­
fill the AAUW'i annua] aim to
contact high school senior girls In
the interest of encouraging them
to go to college.
Introducing the discussion, Mrs.
Dodge stressed the need for a vo­
cation with special college train­
ing, citing the words of a num­
ber of employers who are asking
for training and experience and
who state that already as war
production has rounded the peak
there la growing competition
among employers. This early evi­
dence points to the time when
training and experience will be a
more deciding factor in achieving
satisfactory employment than it is
at the moment. Mrs. Dodge stated
that any girl who really desires
to go through college can do so
today, when work is to be had in
summer and during the college
year as well.
Other members of the panel
spoke on vocations open to women
college graduates.
Miss Cora
Mason, city librarian, discussed
various phases of library work
open to women with college train­
ing in those fields. Mrs. Frank
Van Dyke discussed opportunities
for college women in the fields of
law. politics and science. Miss Pa­
tricia Geiser, county health offi­
cer, described opportunities for
college trained women in nursing,
medicine and related social serv­
ice.
Mrs. Frances Cook, dean of
women at the Ashland High
School, co-operated with members
of the American Association of
University Women in arranging
the program. Miss Shirley Speece,
i president of the Girls' League,
' opened the meeting.

MINISTERIAL GROUP PLANS
(Continued from Page 1)
prayer service will be rotated
among the churches as follows,
beginning Thursday morning at
the Congregational Church; Fri­
day morning at the Episcopal;
Saturday morning at the Baptist
Church, Monday morning at the
Methodist Church, Tuesday morn­
ing at the Nazarene Church and
Wednesday morning at the Vic­
tory Mission. It is hoped that
Christian people will make the
most of these periods of prayer.
Also, the Ministerial Associa­
tion is suggesting to the Chris­
tian people of Ashland and com­
munity that each day promptly at
6 o’clock in the evening they pause
for one minute in silent prayer
for world peace.
Once again let it be brought to
the attention of the entire com­
munity that the churches and
their ministers stand ready to
give aid and counsel to any whose
hearts are tried and worried by
present day world conditions. The
minister of whatever denomina­
tion you may want to consult will
be provided for your help if you
will call the president of the Min­
isterial Association at phone 5851
or the secretary of the associa­
tion at phone 8101, and make your
dartres known.
Is fish a brain ffcod ? Sorry, but
scientists say that fish does no
more for your brain than any
other food, and not even a ton
of fish will make you a mental
giant. But fish is a good protein
food—equal to meat—and it costs
no ration points.
Miss Cora Mason will be hos­
tess to the Wesleyan Service
Guild of the Methodist Church
at her home at 349 North Main on
j Tuesday evening. A dessert lun­
cheon will be served at 7:00. Miss
Jeanette Smith is in charge of
the program and Miss Gladys
Whitson, the devotions.

HICKORY GROVE
Most everybody is half - way
hipped on this or that, so it Is
not being too odd, 1 reckon, if
I get worked
up on some­
thing like a
sale« tax.
A
fe llo w
down the road
from us runs
a kind of dry-
goods store In
town, and you
know he can
see what Is go­
ing on. He says he has to put
things like new dresses and suits
In hts windows nt night now. If
he tries it In the daytime, some­
body will grab 'em off his arm
before he can get them on his
window models. He never gets to
look at his stuff he doesn't know
what the styles are, he says,
never sees them on his window
figures. Maybe you have been
wondering why you see so many
September moms In the window.
Now you know why.
If a suit sells for $30 or $40,
lt makes no difference. If it had
a 10 cent or a $10 tax, It would
still rfiake no difference, or cramp
sales. If this fellow had time,
he says, he would write hts Con­
gressman about a sales tax. but
as it Is hs just puts hts stuff in
the window and jumps for his
life.

Oregon women who can assist
in harvesting Oregon's vital war
crops this spring and summer
have been «asked to register early
with their local county farm labor
employment office by Mrs. Mabel
Mack, assistant state farm labor
supervisor in charge of the wom­
en’s land army. Both the recruit­
ment and the placement of farm
labor thia year la In charge of
extension agricultural agents.
Shortage of men workers this
year will require greatly Increased
numbers of women workers. Mrs
Muck says. She estimates that
, about 40,000 placements of women
1 wl" bp "«^saary Ihls year rum-
pared with 28,000 last year. Thev
will be used not only for fle'd
work and harvesting of season-
crops throughout the state, hut
also will be placed in full-time
Jobs such as ranch cooks, dnirv
workers or for general farm work.
Although It will be a few weeks
before the peak demands for
women farm workers will arise,
Mrs. Mack points out that the lo­
cal county farm labor offices are
getting their records In shape and
making lists of women workers
who will be available when they
are needed Some of these mem­
bers of the women's land army
are already being called on by
farmers, even before harvest pe­
riods of seasonal crops.
Women farm workers may be­
come members of the women’s
land army and will be eligible to
wear the special WLA uniform
