EIGHT MEDrOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Sunday. April 9. I ISO
To Organize Chapter Here
Of National Secretaries
The United Statea if known ai the nation of organizations,
and it Is a rare person who does not belong to one or more groups
civic, fraternal, professional or of some other category. Every
now and then a number of people with similar interests will form
a new organization if there doesn't happen to be one which suits
their needs, and so it was a few years ago with secretaries in the
state of Missouri.
Looking around they found
that nurses, teachers, doctors,
lawyers and people of practically
all professions were organized,
so they promptly set about
founding a group for secretaries.
This was seven years ago and the
National Secretaries' association
now has thousands of members
in some 300 cities, purpose 01 uic
association is three-fold: To ele
vate the standards of the secre
tarial profession, to provide
educational benefits and to spon
sor civic and social activities.
Setting up a definite plan to
promote the first purpose, tne
elevation of the standards of the
profession, leaders decided that
secretaries should have a system
of certification similar to that ot
accountants and Mrs. Jean H.
Williams, here from Kansas City
to organize a group in Medford,
states that the goal will soon be
reached.
The system will be empowered
to classify secretaries who pass
the rigid tests as "certified pri
vate secretaries." An applicant
for this certification must nave
had five years' business experi
ence, must have certain educa
tional requirements, must be an
American citizen and must be of
good moral character.
It is believed that about a
year's preparation will be re
quired of the average secretary,
and the examination will be set
up on three classifications which
are secretarial techniques, office
procedure and practices and bus
iness organization and manage
ment. Mr. Williami Is now Inter
viewing women interested In the
new organization, and it is ex
pected that the local unit will
aoon be a reality. It will be the
fifth in Oregon, with Portland,
Salem, Eugene and Corvallis al
ready organized.
The first set of five officers
will be selected by the organizer,
and the last week of April has
been tentatively set for the in
atallation of these. Mrs. Williams,
registered at tha Medford hotel
aayi tha response here has been
good.
The E. B. DeVoes will with
out doubt store away in the fam
ily schapbook the cablegram
which arrived last week. It not

only brought the good news of
a grandson in the family, but it
startled the couple a bit, for the
wire, which arrived here April
1 announced the birth of David
Lewis McGarry on April 2. And
it wasn't a mistake, either.
The infant's parents live on
the island of Guam, where Papa
David McGarry is with the navy,
and because of the international
date line, the baby's birth was
announced here the day before
he was born, as far as the Med
ford calendar is concerned. Lon
fusing, isn't it.
The McGarrys are expected to
return to the states in August
after having spent the past two
years on Guam.
Each business establishment in
Medford, and everywhere else
for that matter, has its pri
vate fund of stories about the
DUblic. Last week when John
Pntton of the unemployment ser
vice interviewed a caller only to
find that she should have gone
to the social security office for
her information, the talk natur
ally swerved around as to wny
ine average jjci&uu uumh 1 yj
more attention to where he is
going, or what he is doing and
saying, thereby saving everyone
much trouble.
The caller related how a great
many people, every day, walk
into the little entrance- way
which separates t h e Holland
hotel and Mail Tribune news
room and ignoring several signs,
enter the wrong office. They of
fer news stories and ads to the
staff of the
association and the National
Farm Loan association, and try
to borrow money from the Trib
une reporters.
"That's nothing," declared Mr.
Patton. "This employment office
couldn't possibly look less like a
hotel lobby, but ever now ana
then some one walks briskly in
and tip to the receptionist here
and tries to rent a room in the
Holland hotel."
If some efficiency expert can
figure out a way to guide the
busy public through the right
door In the Mail Tribune-Holland
hotel block, a great many would
rise up and call him blessed.

and clubs
Kernicks Leave
To Live In South
Mr. and Mrs. Charles i. Kir
nick, who have made their home
here at 61S Oakdale drive, left
Friday morning to live in
Georgia.
A handkerchief shower honor
ing Mrs. Kernick was held at
th Kernick home earlier in the
week.
Those attending were Mrs.
Walter Reinking and daughter
Edith Michelle; Mrs. Vernon
Bailey. Mrs. Oda Thomason, Mrs.
John Dodge, Mrs. Michael Beck
and D'Ann. Mrs. George Culey,
Mrs. George Watson, Mrs. Carrie
Milnes, Mrs. Clarence joraan
and Mrs. Bert Staats.
Frivolous Froufrou
buying trips, always makes her
former friends mad by constant
ly extolling the virtues of Med
ford and the Rogue river VBlley.
Mrs. M. believes Medford and
the rest of the valley "sells itself
short." As soon as a southern
California!! discovers the Rogue
river valley, he forgets Califor
nia and comes up here to live,
she declares.

tiful the brunette bride, Tresa
McMannis, and maid-of-honor,
Duane Carole Maddox looked in
their white tulle frocks, but the
music also came in for a lot of
comment.
The bride, herself a musician.
wanted something pretty special
in the wav of wedding music and
Production Credit so it turned out to be. Tradition
was thrown to the winds, and the
soloist. Mrs. Richard D. Werner,
sang "Beloved in Your Absence"
by Amy Woodford Finden and
"Morning" by Strauss. Another
unusual touch was the violin
music by Mr. Werner, for he not
only played solo numbers but
played throughout the ceremony,
even doing the wedding marches
along with Bruno Pellegrini,
who was at the organ.
Mr. Werner's numbers includ
ed the beautiful "Meditation"
from Thais and "Romance." The
only traditional number used
during the wedding was the
Lohengrin wedding march, the
Mendelssohn recessional having
been discarded in favor of
"Adoration."
While hashing over again the
much-discussed question of why
easterners still persist in believ

different anyway. Mrs. Mildred

Qn Earth !
i
r you had in your hand a list of all the people in the
world who own and ride in Cadillac cars, we think you'd
agree that you could search in vain for another list of
equal size and greater distinction.
Cadillac is the great common meeting ground for the
world's distinguished people. Wherever the car is avail
able, it has become almost the automatic companion
for outstanding personal achievement.
And yet, such is the magic of Cadillac's manufac
turing ingenuity, that this internationally distinguished
car is available at a price which makes it a great
practical value.
The lowest-priced Cadillac model the lovely
"Sixty-One" actually costs less than certain models
of numerous other makes of cars.
The great Cadillac engine is so economical to operate
that gasoline mileage actually approaches that of the
smallest, most economical cars. In a recent omcially-
supervised economy run, three Cadillac cars averaged
better than twenty-two miles to the gallon for 751 miles!
And there is simply no practical limit to the car's
endurance. It is merely a question of how long you wish
to keep it and drive it. The full lifespan of a Cadillac
has never been accurately measured.
In view of all this, isn't it the part of wisdom to add
your own name to the list of those who own this dis
tinguished car?
This is a wonderful year for moving up to Cadillac.
The car has never been so beautiful, so luxurious so
utterly thrilling to ride in and drive. It is an everlasting
satisfaction to utilize and possess.
Better come in and talk it over. We'd be most happy
to see you any time. But please bear in mind that
every day you delay will cost you its price in pleasure
and satisfaction. Why not come in today?
