ing the Pep
team, basket
b a 1 II team,
coaches and
referees, they
entertained the
student body,
a c c o mpanied
by an all-teach
er band. The assembly gave the
Black Tornado a rousing send
off for the championship play
offs with Crater High this week
end.
The first six weeks of the sec
ond semester were climaxed in
a flurry of exams Thursday and
Friday. Tests in Social Studies,
Languages, and math were given
Thursday and English, com
merce, and science Friday.
The senior Hi-Y sponsored a
dance for Medford and Crater
high students after the game Sat

Pederson was chairman of the
affair.
Amendment Passed
The Student council proposed
a change to amend the Associ

passed it, 651 to 72.
It changed Article XII, Sec

ber of the winning or second

As We Live
True Hospitality
A Frame Of Mind
True hospitality is a frame
of mind, not a form of behavior.
Some people may entertain
lavishly
without show
ing true hos
pitality. Their
-guests are ill
at - ease and
may even
have a feeling
of guilt about
the trouble or
or expense
they have
caused.
Many people believe that the
only way to show true hospital
ity is to put on a show, as it
were, for their guests. They
work frantically to have every
thing right, from ridding the
house of every speck of dirt to
preparing the most elaborate
refreshments.
Then, when their guests ar
rive, they are tired, tense, 'and
nervous. They are so afraid that
something will go wrong that
they cannot keep their attention
on what their guests are saying.
The result is that no one really
enjoys himself.
Contrast this with the ap
proach of the hostess who pre
pares for guests by trying to
think up interesting things to
talk about or to do. She has
things reasonably clean and or
derly, and she prepares food

By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D,
she is sure her guests will en
joy perhaps something differ
ent, but always simple.
Ready To Greet Guests
Then, when the guests arrive,
she is relaxed and ready to greet
them with a smile. She can de
vote her time to entertaining
them and not feel she must
hover over this or that detail of
the refreshments for fear some
thing will go wrong. She is able
to create the impression that
her guests are very welcome,
that it is fun to have them, and
that she has not been incon
venienced either in work or
money spent.
One of the best ways to give
guests the impression that they
are truly welcome is to accept
their offers of help, from putting
up a card table to washing the
dishes after the refreshments
have been served. Guests feel
guilty if they must sit by while
the hostess works, and they
leave with a guilty feeling when
they remember the stack of
dirty dishes their hostess must
face after the last guest has gone.
LETTERS FROM READERS
Impressing Others: "What is
the best way to impress others?
I know boasting is quickly seen
through."
(A) Any attempt to impress
others, regardless of how subtle
it may be, is likely to be seen
through just as boasting is. The
best way to impress others is
to be yourself and act in a friend
ly, natural manner. People will
be more impressed by your
manner than they ever could
; I - 1 1 ' 1
De Dy anytning you saia or aia
with the specific thought in mind
of creating a good impression.
Good impressions come mainly
from sincere, natural behavior.
Slapping in Public: "M? hus
band slaps the children in pub
lic if they are rude, impertinent.
or say what he calls 'dirty
words'. I have tried to explain
to him that this antagonizes and
embarrasses the children. His
argument is that it is better to
have them antagonized and em
barrassed than to have people
think he is a lax parent. Who
is right?"
(A) You are definitely right
about this matter. Your husband
may be creating the impression
that he wants to create, namely
that he is a strict disciplinarian,
but most people today do not
admire that type of discipline.
It seems cruel to slap a child
and give him no chance to ex
plain or to hit back. A gentle
reproof or a show of disapproval
on the parent's part creates the
impression that the parent is on
his toes and trying to teach his
children how to behave, and it
does not antagonize or embarrass
the children.
Card Sending: "I think1 send
ing cards to people on all oc
casions is getting to be a racket.
Do they really appreciate this?"
(A) Anything that shows a
person he is remembered and
thought of enough to have a card
sent to him inflates his ego and
thus pleases him. It may be re
garded as a "racket" by those
who send cards just because it is
the "thing to do" but most peo
ple regard it as a sign of friend
ship. (COPYRIGHT 1955,
