MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE MED FORD. OREGON1, TUESDAY. JUNE 11, 1940. PAGE THREE Society nd Clubs I Clara Mary Davis I Zonfa Cu Is First To Obtain C. C. Membership To the Medford branch of Zonta International goea the dis tinction today of being the first service club in Medford to buy a membership in the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce. The club, in regular session last night at the Girls' Community club voted the membership pur chase as first step in a more ex tensive program of community service. The action was pre ceded by discussion and decision that community service could best be accomplished by affilia tion with the chamber of com merce. Janie Smith, newly elected president, presided, and louise Basf ord acted as secretary, awaiting selection of this officer by the board. Mabel Conger was elected delegate to the national conven tion June 25 in Denver, and Miss Basford as alternate. Reports of recent trips taken were made by Margaret Fabrick, who attended several meetings of Zonta International in Port land; Neva Lowry, who attend ed graduation at Oregon and Oregon State; Miss Basford, who attended sessions in Seattle of the Soroptomist club. The meeting opened with sing lng. Lois Young accompanying at the piano. Thalma Jones Visits Mother Arriving here yesterday by motorcar from Seattle, Wash., was Miss Thelma Jones who will spend the summer visiting her mother, Mrs. Laura Jones, at her home on South Ivy street. Miss Jones is a teacher in the Washington city. Adam made one really serious mistake IF ADAM were still about, he probably would tell you with Madam Eve concurring that be should have owned his own home. It would have made difference. Everywhere home owners are substantial people, and worth-while things are the apple of their eye, Among the 13,542 employees of Standard (excluding subsid iaries), 40 percent own their own homes. This total seems all the more remarkable when you recall that some are located in remote oil fields, others spend more time on tankers at sea than on land, while another group realizes that promotion may involve transfer. If you delete the Marine Department, for instance, the percentage swells to 46. Yet there is the fact: a high percentage of our employees are home-owners, with a home owner's natural interest in the civic affairs of home town, church, schools, boy scouts, libraries and everything that looks toward betterment of a community. Standard's part is simply that it encourages such stability by a policy of job-security, fair pay, decent working conditions, and a record for employee-relations which over sixty yean has made possible the very essence of home-owning a dependa bility in the future. That's more than Adam had.
