them.
Grade school youngsters are
being asked to assist in this col

they trick or treat at persons
homes. Each child who secures
old eye glasses that evening will

have them available when the
children call.
The current local project of

Toastmistress
Workshop Held
Here on Sunday
"Harvest of Ideas" was the
theme for an area council work
shop for members of Toastmis
tress clubs from Grants Pass,
Klamath Falls and Medford held
in Medford last Sunday. -
The workshop opened with a
council meeting with Mrs. Peg
gy Hamm, chairman, presiding.
Dinner was served in the Pi
oneer room of the Jackson hotel.
The harvest theme was used in
the table decorations and favors.
The invocation was given by
Miss Anna, Streed of the Med
ford flub. Group singing fol
lowed and the address of wel
come was given by. Mrs. Clar
ence Wilson of Medford and the
response by Miss Zepha Pierson
of Grants Pass. A musical pro
gram was given during the din
ner hour by Mrs. Effie Kurtz,
Mrs. Eloise Winklebleck and
Mrs. Dorothy Davis, all of Med
ford. Mrs. Kurtz sang, Mrs.
Winklebleck gave whistling
numbers and Mrs. Davis played
violin numbers.
The workshop was conducted
as a model meeting. The model
club was named "The Glean
ers," with Mrs. Carol Whetstone
Klamath Falls, the acting topic
mistress developing the idea of
"Yours and Mine Ten Years
From Now." Mrs. Jane Vander
steen of Medford was toastmis
tress and introduced the speak
ers. Mrs. Kay Metcalf, Grants
Pass, spoke on "A Study in
Black and White," an insight in
to the life of the penguin. Miss
Ellen Sullivan, Klamath Falls,
spoke from her storehouse . of
experience with music teaching
in public schools on "The Uni
versal Language," and Mrs. A.
C. Cameron of Medford spoke
on the "Aztec Pyramids." A
short satire on "the perfect bus
iness meeting" by the Klamath
Falls club proved nearly too
true to be comfortable.
Lexicologist for the meeting
was Mrs. Anne Basker of Grants
Pass and program evaluator was
Mrs. Helen Smith, Grants Pass.
Speech evaluators. were Mrs.
Reba Martz and Mrs. Margaret
Davis, Klamath Falls, Mrs. Wil
liam F. Roney and Mrs. Mary
Catherine Powell of Grants
Pass, Mrs. Edward Klimko and
Mrs. ' Arnold Bohnert of . Med
ford. Mrs. Bernice Kunzman and
Mrs. Marjorie Hopkins, charter
members of the Medford club,
attended the workshop. . , .

"Only ants and men, of all the creatures on the earth, go In
for deliberate, organized destruction of their own kind. The
armies of ants will undoubtedly go right on practicing the art
of war. But man is a creature of reason. In his ability to reason
lies his hope of getting together in a world at peace.
"The real enemies of mankind are warwhich has become
so dreadful that we now have the power to destroy ourselves
in a blinding flash, and disease, ignorance and hunger. Inven
tions have broken the barriers of time and space. People , of
every country ' depend on the people of every other country.
The world has become small."
We do not know the author of these lines, printed in The
United Nations magazine last February, but we believe they are
worth pondering.
Because "planting a tree is an act of faith and an expression
of hope for the future" United Nations chapters throughout the
United States were urged to plant a tree on United Nations day.
The Medford chapter will plant such a tree today with the help
of 10-year-old Gregory Elliot. The chapter endeavored to fhd
a boy or girl born on the UN birthday, October 24, 10 years ago
but finding none, selected Gregory who was born October 22,
1945.
The tree selected, a gint Sequoia, seems especially suitable.
Largest of all living trees, the Sequoia is a magnificent and sturdy
evergreen which has no natural enemies,, such as diseases or
insects. We hope that the one to be planted at Hedrick Junior
High school today will flourish, standing as a symbol of the faith
and hope born with the formation of the United Nations.
'
Madame Pandit, a former, president of the UN General
Assembly, once said that she experienced a sense of frustration
at the number of words that are said about this simple thing"
(peace) and added "Ws do not create the cUmate" of peace we
discuss peace. We write lectures and learned books about It., Yet
what do we do to create a climate in which these words grow?"
She likened peace to a lovely tree that we desire to see growing
in the courtyard, so that we can relax under its. branches.
"But is that tree going to grow merely as a result of my desires
and dreams?" she asked. "No," she concluded, "it will grow only
if I properly prepare the ground, if I procure the seed and plant
and nurture it."
Good for Milly!
The society editor of the Klamath . Falls, Herald and News
has a lot of courage. She came right out in print in her section
Of the paper and said "Carelessly written andor illegible copy
will not be accepted for publication." Copy so bad it takes every
one in the news room to decipher it sometimes it is so bad no
one can make it out is a problem on every paper, but this is the
first time we've known anyone to take so bold a step. So we say
again, good for Miily!
Headed by the word "Notice" in large type Mrs. Ramsby
said:
"Carelessly written and 'or illegible copy will not be accepted
for publication. If submitted by mail it will be kept on file
and the author may call the Society Desk for explanation or
suggestions as to corrections or rewriting. '
"I have no quarrel with handwritten . copy if it is readable.
Of course, typewritten double-spaced items are ; preferred but
the Society Desk recognizes that this is not always possible.
"So . .
"Write neatly with a reasonably soft lead pencil, or, if a
pen is used avoid light-hued inks.
"Cheek your facts. "
"Check your spelling.
"Always use initials or given (first) name before a surname
(last name.) .'Mrs. John Jones' never 'Mrs. Jones,' unless the
full name has been used previously in the copy. .
"Your copy is YOUR brainchild ... if you don't respeet it
no one else should be expected to.
"When in doubt, call or write the Society Desk U
possible help will be given."

Tired from her day of rehearsing for the Junior Serviee
league's Follies, one of the members collapsed into a chair. at
home and picked up the last, issue of Time magazine. It proved
to be of keen interest to the member, Mrs., Carl Wimberly Jr., for
it carried an article about Clarke School for the Deaf at Northamp
ton, Mass.,, and it is for the league's kindergarten for the deaf
that the Follies is being given. c -
The league's little school here uses the same theory of teach
ing the deaf as does Clarke, where the method was pioneered.
The method is based on the belief that the totally deaf person is
almost non-existent; even those who seem totally deaf to others
usually have some slight remnant of hearing.
Using powerful hearing aids, the deaf can be taught to
utilize whatever remnant of hearing they may have, and learn
speech rhythms.
The Time article relates how Alexander Graham BelL a
professor at Clarke in its early, struggling days, invented a
device to help the deaf to hear and was delighted that, it was
successful because "now we shall have money enough to teach
speech to little deaf children." ,
The article adds that "a? a matter of fact, had he not been
trying to help such children, he might never have started experi
menting .with the telephone in the first place."
Mrs. A. L. Clay now knows what her two-year-old son thinks
of her appearance. Mrs. Clay and the little boy, Scotty, went to
Europe several months ago to join First Lieutenant Clay and they
recently attended a movie production of "Hansel and Gretel."
When the old witch came on the screen Scotty yelled out "There's
mama."
The remark won't really matter, though, because Mrs. Clay
is an exceedingly pretty young mother. She is the former Duane
Maddox, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Maddox, and her par
ents look forward to her long letters filled with interesting
descriptions of her stay in Europe.
Understand now, we don't recommend this, we only repeat
it. According to an article which recently came to our desk the
vay to block a sweater after washing is to put it between layers
of terry cloth toweling and brown paper and then place the whole
kit and kaboodle under the living room rug to dry. O. S.

Educator Visits
Premier's Wife
While on Tour
Moscow (U.R) Miss Charl
Ormond Williams Saturday had
the distinction of being the first
American woman to be enter
tained by the wife of a -Soviet
premier at his private home.
She was the guest at tea of
Mrs. Elena Mikhilovna Bulgan
in Thursday.
Miss Williams, former presi
dent of the National Education
association, had completed a 45
day tour of the Soviet Union
and wrote Mrs. Bulganin to re

education. Mrs. Bulganin is a
teacher also.
The Soviet Premier's wife re
sponded promptly and invited
the 70-year-old American educa

liams described as a small apart
ment in a . modest building 10
minutes by automobile from the
Kremlin.
Miss Williams said they did
hot discuss politics but at one
point, the Premier's wife said:
"Nobody , wants war."

Believing "art is a way of life,"
the university women who spon
sor this exhibit each year in
Medford are not alone in this
project. In almost every city of
size in this country where there
is an active branch of AAUW,
there is enthusiastic appreciation
of the arts with creative art
groups organized . or artists en
couraged by opportunities for
the public to see their work.
The Medford, AAUW art ex
hibit is open to all . artists in
southern Oregon, professional,
amateur and students, working
in any medium, free-lance or in
organized art groups and classes.
Over a hundred invitations are
in the mail today, inviting artists
already known to the committee
to enter their work.
Mrs. Denning, chairman of the
art committee in charge of the
exhibit urges any artist not on
her list, and who does hot re
ceive a written invitation to con
tact her as soon as possible at
telephone 3TA6-4451 or pick up
an invitation at Medford Art
Center. .
All public schools have .been
contacted and a student gallery
of young artists is planned.
Pictures to be exhibited
should be brought in to the Med
ford hotel Thursday, November
3, before noon in order that the
committee can bang them before
the. opening at 7 p.m. Oils and
pastels must be framed and
water color, charcoals and draw
ings must be matted.
