MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JULY 27, 1942. PAGE THREE USO ACTIVITIES United Service Organization program is spreading outside the USO center as evidenced by the many events scheduled on the program in other vicinities. Grants Pass, Central Point and Ashland residents as well as Medford residents, service clubs and churches are cooperating in a recreational program for sol diers stationed at- Camp White. Among last week's outside programs were a skating party at the Medford Ice arena at tended by 200 soldiers and Junior hostesses. This probably We, Too, Have A STEADY Job will become weekly feature of the USO schedule. Tuesday evening the young people of Sacred Heart church entertained with an informal dance. Mrs. Earl Moore's lawn was scene of an outdoor movie Wednesday evening with the showing of "Private Letters of Private Dobbs. South Ameri can Folk Festival was also given, the picture brought from South America by Mrs. Penny Fon taine and was shown by Hal's Camera shop. Wednesday eve ning the weekly USO army special dance was held at Lin coln school gymnasium. Senior hostesses present were Zoe By- ington, Mrs. H. L. Brown and Mrs. J. J. Wilkinson. Music was furnished by W. Gillette's orchestra. Thursday evening through the courtesy of the Knights of Pythias a Russian evening was held in the K. of P. hall. USO meetings are also scheduled In the Girls' Com munity clubhouse and the First Christian church is the scene of the USO chorus rehearsal for colored soldiers with Mrs. Elsie Jensen in charge. Local clubs or residents wish' ing to schedule weekly events for soldiers may telephone USO headquarters. The calendar of events is published at the center each Friday, and events must be listed by Friday noon it was an nounced Saturday. WITH business-as-usual out the window and the whole world in the tremendous up roar of war, it may seem a strange time to talk about sta bility. Yet there was never a day when the term "steadfast" was so comforting or the slo gan "steady does it" meant '- much to so many. A recent check shows that 59 per cent of our people have had steady jobs with Standard for above 10 years. No such proportion of employees would stay with my company from one to four decades if the employees themselves did not recognize stability from inside. And they have reason for deciding thatthis Company is a good one to tie to. Not only are its policies those of any ' steady-going citizen who hopes to hold up his head in his com munity for a long time to come, but another essential con sideration is that Standard it self has a steady job. Once it was to furnish kero sene for light. Later it was to expand with the growing au tomobile. Now it's to power trucks and tanks and planes. Tomorrow it will be all of these . . . and doubtless some thing more. We'll have an essential task to perform. And stability has always been sure for those who perform an es sential task tie.
