TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday. February 7, 1958 Society and Clubs Young Hostess Is Possibility . For White House By ELIZABETH TOOMEY . United Pmss Correspondent New. York (U.R) The White ; House could have the youngest official hostess since ,1856 if ' Adlai E. Stevenson becomes pres- ; ident of the United States. Mrs. Ernest Ives, the Democ ratic residential candidate's only sister, who was ready to as sume the first lady's duties four years ago, says the 22-year-old bride of Adlai, Jr., would be the "logical choice" this time. .The former Nancy Anderson of Lcuisville, Ky., who married Stevenson's eldest son last June, would be the youngest woman to preside at White House parties . since James Buchanan, a bache lor, became president 100 years ago. Buchanan asked his sister's daughter, Harriet Lane, to be mistress of the White House. Miss Lane was 23 at the time Young Mrs. Stevenson will be 23 next October. "A number of things have cnangea since the last cam paign," said Mrs. Ives, who is a chatty, informal woman and the co-author of . a just-published book, "My Brother, Adlai." me boys have grown up a great deal in the past four years, and I know that Adlai talks very seriously to his sons about his decisions. I. would help my brother in any way I could, but little Adlai's wife is a wonder ful girl, and I think now she would be the logical choice to be hostess in the White House."

Dr. Kreisman is instructor of humanities courses at South ern Oregon college. The speaker added that man should not just "make a living" but first of all be prepared "to make' a life." Defining a "liberal educa tion," Dr. Kreisman stated that almost any subject can be "lib eralized" and explained that ba sically liberal means "something that frees." "We are all prisoners, bound to the accident of our birth," Dr. Kreisman said, and added that individuals will have the con cepts and ideas of only their time and place of living- unless they "free : themselves.'.' 'Man must learn .to rise above small local ideas and concepts to. big ger ones," he declared and said, "it is not the; location but what is in the head that counts there are 'big hicks' in New- York, Los Angeles . and .Boston. We must learn not just to be citizens of one locality or -of -the world, but citizens of all time." A' liberal education aids an in dividual in solving life's . prob lems, Dr. Kreisman emphasized, makes. us more efficient human' beings, . helps us to "live with ourselves and to live with other people." " A general education' broadens the scope of friendship, and pro vides the' means by which indi viduals communicate with- one another, the speaker said. He added that because of an accumulation of learning "every generation sits on the shoulders, of its predecessors." ""Education and books binds all time to gether," Dr. Kreisman said, and added that "We can carry on a conversation with Socrates be cause we have a public library." Education. Tool , A liberal education is the tool with which we add to our intel lectual stature, the professor said, and emphasized that edu cation bring insight, which pro motes foresight. ; Dr. Kreisman said that the average individual makes little use of his mental capacities and that "we have 12-cylinder brains but we are content to use only two or three. "We would have a better world if we would utilize liberal educations to jack us out of our ruts," he declared. The speaker pointed out that an individual cannot just have a liberal education handed to him, but that he must "dig it out." He added that through general edu cation and broad knowledge in dividuals learn to evaluate the situation and problems of life and said "it is not the things we know that cause trouble, but the things we know aren't so." He added that "language is a kind of map, and we must be sure that the map doesn't lead to some thing which doesn't exist we must acquire the ability for care ful, accurate, hard-headed criti cal thinking." Turning to the great values of art, philosophy and literature, Dr. Kreisman said "thinking ma chine's now take care of facts it is in the field of. human judg ments and relationships that we must be trained. The essence of any executive is his sense of values clerks can take care of facts." . Earlier in his talk Dr. Kreis man had told how American ed ucation had for too long been channeled into specialized areas so that too many "knew more and more in narrower and nar rower fields." This resulted in individuals who were lacking as citizens, voters, consumers and parents, he said. Trend Reversed In recent years this trend has been reversed, he added, and said that now large industries were not only hiring young peo ple with general educations, and then giving them the specific training they need on the job, but were sending tr;eir executives back to school for further edu cation in the fields of literature, philosophy, music and art. "We need good, sound human, beings first of all," he declared. Dr. Kreisman spoke about the value of the arts and artists, and defined an artist - as one who "takes raw materials and orders m0 them into the effects he wants." He spoke of such artists as Beet hoven, Shakespeare and Rem brandt and said the ability to take these raw materials and "order them' into effects" is the problem of life, but we don't see it. "We just muddle through," he added. - : "Life should be an art," the speaker said and added that the artists are pioneers In the matter of getting effects, and in the mat ter of communicating concepts and ideas. During the ; question period, Dr. Kreisman said a liberal edu cation shquld begin with the first grade and told how Southern Oregon college. is changing its curriculum to add "classes in the humanities to. all courses and now has a liberal arts course and degree. . .
