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

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.
