Mrs. Ray Davis spoke on the home as a cornerstone of life, stating a happy home produces a feeling of security in the chil dren, giving them mental poise and balance and leaving them better equipped for leadership in the world and better parents. Mrs. Georgine Clark, home economics teacher, spoke in fa vor of the "three Rs" with spe cial stress on reading and arith metic, stating reading was a safe guard against propaganda and that students should receive "hard rock" education in the fundamental skills. "The church," stated the Rev. Barnett. representing the third cornerstone, "teaches a child openly, what he thinks and plans inwardly, and no other organi zation does that, no other organi zation can." Jeff Irwin, as speaker on the community cornerstone, sum marized the effects of the whole on community life and on life in general. Both speakers and audience were surprised when at the end of the discussion a young father asked if his family were to attend Sunday school, would they receive such teaching as Rev. Barnett's speech indicated. "I'll answer for the Rev. Bar nett,' said Jeff Irwin. "He teaches the Mariners closs: they are young married people like you and if you will come I can as sure you that you'll be taught. One of your children will be in Mrs. Davis' class." Further questions from the couple indicated they were new residents of Oregon and the new Sunday school curriculum was explained to them after the meeting adjourned. Acordion music was furnished by Mrs. Agnes Powell. Further plans were made for a talent show to be given on April 14.

Seen throughout the early cruise clothes is "haystack yel low," as mellow a shade as gold en corn, and one of 30 new col ors introduced in celanese crepes and sportswear fabrics. The York state colors all draw their natu ral tones from typical country at mosphere haystacks, waterfalls, flowers, fruit, pqttcry, glass and pewter, and from the mighty Hudson itself, says Marjorie Hol ligan, who visited the whole re gion for first-hand inspiration in the styling of the colors. Dress designers are especially enthusiastic about the range of yellow to gold tones. In addition to haystack yellow, there is a pale neutral called "buttermilk" and a lively light yellow named "sunnyslde ' after Washington Irving's home. A deeper shade is the browned yellow of "amber glass." Pastel shades are clearer and stronger than those of last year. Reflecting 'the orange - peach trend in a variety of subtle ways are "mayflower," a peach-pink; "cantaloupe-mellon"; "shaker or ange," a bright orange; "Iro quois." an orange-coral; and "sundew rose." "red jacket," a bright orangey-red is expected to carry over the present rage for red.

Ore., Feb. 17 U,R The AFL Lumber and Sawmill union was critical today of the CIO International Woodworkers of America for allegedly easing up on its campaign for em ployee pensions in favor of a medical and welfare program. The AFL union recently urged its locals at Longview and Sno qualmie, Wash., to put the Wey erhaeuser pension plan on trial for one year. Kenneth Davis, executive sec retary of the northwestern council of the AFL union, called the Weyerhaeuser pension plan superior to the plan given the CIO by steel and other major in dustries in the country. Al Hnrtung, vice president of the IWA, said his union was not satisfied with the Weyerhaeuser plnn "in its present form." He said "the company alone con trols it. and the company re serves the right to cancel it."
