Citizenship
Woman of
I said, and added that the Corn-
munist party and army, at first
seemingly offering a change for
the better, was now proven noth
ing more than "terrorists."
Mrs. West closed her talk by
speaking of conditions in this
nation and said that she thought
the lives of many persons are
like a camera out of focus. She
said there is too much emphasis
on sex among youth, and too
much superficiality.
In closing Mrs. West quoted
from an editorial in the Portland
Oregonian which commented on
a talk by the outstanding his
torian, Dr. Arnold Toynbee, who
has made a searching study of
the rise and fall of civilizations.
The Oregonian repeated Dr.
Toynbee's statement that democ
racy is half emptied of its mean
ing by being divorced from its
Christian context and then wrote
"Actually, he could have gone
farther. Government that is not
based upon a strong religious
foundation has no foundation. It
is a ballon subject to shifting
fads, emotional surges, material
istic philosophy and greedy ex
ploitation. ... If the Western
world is to maintain democracy,
it must strengthen the founda
tion of democracy, which is
Christianity active Christi
anity." Mrs. West concluded by saying
"When newspapers and histori
ans tell us that, as well as mis
sionaries and preachers, we have
to step out and work for active
Christianity. We must have the
courage to sharpen our focus, to
put on our spectacles and take
a good look at this country and
what really counts. This civiliza
tion must not rise and fall It
must stand."
Mrs. West was introduced by
Mrs. Evelyn Crain, Zonta presi
dent. Mrs. Crain explained
Zonta, saying it is a classified
service club for women in busi
ness and the professions, and told
of tlie club's work for juveniles
and for veterans at Camp White.
She announced that Miss Kath
eryn McAllister, junior at Med
ford Senior High school, was the
club's delegate to Girls' state
this year, and that a scholarship
would be presented to an out-
a scroll from Mrs. T. J. Gifford. club member.
Mrs. D'Alblni received the award for more than
25 years of service in leaching citizenship
classes to aliens wishing to become citizens of
this country, (Brainerd photo)
