Nursery School
Operator Attends
"Corvallis Meeting
Mrs. Ethel Tennant, operator
of Medford Nursery school, re
turned Sunday from Corvallis
where she attended a meeting
of persons interested in form
ing an association for operators
of nursery schools, kindergart
ens and day care institutions for
preschool children.
About 40 attended the meet
ing, Mrs. Tennant reports, and
a central committee was formed
to continue plans for the organi
zation. A second meeting will
be held in May.
Purpose of the association
would be to see that all institu
tions caring for children are li
censed and operate under stand
ards deemed necessary, she
pointed out. An Oregon law re-
q quires that all institutions car
ing for pre-school children be
licensed and inspected, but it is
not at present being enforced,
she added. A survey made by
those interested determined that
now only 44 such institutions are
now licensed, while more than
400 are known to be operating
in the state.
The meeting was held in the
Home Economics building of
Oregon State college.
Meeting Changed
Members of Roosevelt Parent
Teacher association are asked
to note a change in meeting from
Thursday to Friday, November
18, at 2:30 p.m. The change was
found necessary because of
meeting conflicts, it was stated,
o Children in the fifth and sixth
grade will provide a musical
program.

A lot of wives complain about
housework, but not my Susie. She
uses her head instead of her muscles.
For example, some women spend a
whole day just scrubbing and wax
ing wood floors. My Susie cleans
and waxes them in one easy opera
tion with Bruce Cleaning Wax. It
takes only half the time and a lot
less work. Yet our beautiful wood
floors are the envy of her friends.
My hat's off to Susie and her Bruce
Cleaning Wax for making a tough
job so easy. And I can't help
but feel proud of
both of them.
P.S. For lighter
waxing on linoleum
and wood, Susie uses
Bruce Floor Cleaner.
Smart gal,
my Susie!'7

Hear Minister
"Social Aspects of Alcohol in
Modern Life" was the subject
of the Rev. Ellmore Gilstrap of
Central Church of Christ, when
he spoke for members of Med
ford Woman's Christian Temp
erance Union at the monthly
meeting last Thursday afternoon
at Girls Community club.
"If we protect the army of
our best friends within our bod
ies, the white corpuscles, they
will protect us in time of need,"
Mr. Gilstrap averred. Alcohol
lessens their vigor and therefore
lessens their ability to combat
any disease germs present in the
body. This has been demonstrat
ed so often that the best doc
tors no longer prescribe alcohol
in any form for their patients,
the speaker said.
A business meeting followed
the talk by the minister, pre
sided over by Mrs. Guy Cox,
president. It was announced that
the Medford union is one of sev
en in Oregon to be a "Rock of
Ages" union. To be so classified
a union must, among other
things, have had an increase in
membership during the year,
paid to all state and national
funds, and dues.
It was also reported that a
case' of fruit was given the Med
ford union for the Children's
Farm Home at Corvallis, and
that a box of clothing was given
by the union to the Presbyterian
women's society for Korean aid.
