Camp Fire
Girls Plan
Celebration
When Camp Fire Girls in
Medford light the 46 candles on
their birthday cake March 9th,
they will be celebrating the birth
of an organization that has
helped over 4,000,000 girls to be
come better citizens and home
makers, a Camp Fire statement
points out. Today, just as in
1910 when Dr. and Mrs. Luther
ilsey Gulick and other lead
ing educators founded the or
ganization, its purpose is to pro-
vide girls with an educational
program that helps to build
character.
IMvas pointed out that Camp
Fire provides "wonderful oppor
tunities for growth and achieve
ment" and that girls enrolled in
is program serve the commun
ity, the nation and the world.
Attention was called to the
"energetic way" in which Camp
Fire Girls here tinned the tra
ditional Halloween "trick or
treat" into help to others. Girls
n toured the neighborhoods gath
ering pennies in order that chil
dren in other lands might have
milk.
Camp Fire's current birthday
project is "plant seeds reap
friendship.
Attention was also called to
the men and women in Medford
and other cities who give thir
time and talents to the Camp
Fire program. Throughout the
q nation there are approximately
70.000 men and women who vol
unteer their services to Camp
Fire ar board and committee
members, group leaders and
. sponsors. However, it was said
that many' were volunteers are
needed in order that Camp Fire
mar extend its program to all
gii who wish to take advant
age of the opportunities which
membership offers. Q
Because many adults claim
that they are "too busy to serve,"
the statement mentioned a few
adults who now serve Camp
Fire.
"One might think that Mrs.
Herbert Daniels, Mrs. J. Rowen
and Russel DeForest were 'too
busy,' the statement continues.
"Mrs. Daniels is the mother of
four : children, does all of her
own housework, is active in
church work and is a Horizon
advisor; Mrs. Rowen has three
children, is a Camp Fire lead
er, and also serves on the coun
cil as an active member, and
gives many hours to PTA and
church work; Mr. DeForest is
a business man with a family
but is never too busy to lend
a hand where it is weeded, and
-js an active council member.
"These Deonle and every one
of our leaders and council mem
bers find a challenge in the Camp
Fire program. By working with
the girls of our community we
feel that our ideals and hopes
for the future will serve a bet
ter community.

Girls is a member of the Med
ford United Crusade.
Andy thinks it's nothing short of
a miracle the way I manage to get
all my housework done and still
have time for the many things I
reafiy enjoy doing. The truth is,
I've simply found faster, easier
ways to do my work. Like wood
floors. How I used to dread that
chore until I found out about
Bruce Cleaning Wax. Now it's -almost
anap because Bruce
cleans as it waxes. There's no -floor
washing at all. And, honestly,
my floors haven't looked so nice
in years. If you have wood floors,
you really ought to try Bruce
Cleaning Wax. I know you'll like it.
Incidentally, Tve found other Bruet
floor products help me, too. There's
Bruce Floor Cleaner for cleaning and
lighter waxing, Bruce Paste Wax,
Bruce Asphalt Tile Cleaner, Bruce
Asphalt Tile Self-Polishing Wax and
the new Bruce
Self-Polishing
Wax. Yes,
for floors
it's Bruce!

As We Live Y
Party Kissing Games Are
Unwise For Teenagers
Kissing games are a popular
indoor sport for young teen
agers. While they may seem
harmless enough on the surface,
they are often the beginning of
heavy petting.
(Q) "My daughter recently at
tended two parlies at ' which
kissing games were the order of
the evening.
The boys and
girls were 13
and 14 years
old. Am I be
ing an old
fuddy duddy
in think ing
that this sort
of thing is un
necessary Dr. Hurlock a" sucn
a party a success? The other
mothers think kissing games are
all right. My daughter says she
doesn't care anything about the
games but if everyone else plays
them, she can't very well be the
only one who refuses. I told her
I would write and ask what you
thought about this matter and
each of us has promised to abide
by your decision."
Mrs. L. B.
(A) I agree that kissing games
are unnecessary to make a party
for young teen-agers a success.
There are more wholesome
forms of entertainment, such as
dancing, cards, bingo and other
games of chance for which small
prizes are offered, and group
singing.
On the other hand, I agree
with your daughter that she
cannot go to a party and be the

League ,
To Quiz
Candidates
Portland Questions to be
asked canidates for the office of
governor, secretary of state,
treasurer, attorney-general, state
senators and representatives
were discussed and approved at
a state board meeting of "the
League of Women Voters of Ore
gon in Portland last Saturday.
Mrs. Bernard J. Shaffer, state
voters service chairman, Beaver
ton, presented the questions and
stated that questionnaires would
be mailed to all candidates for
state offices soon after the close
of filing onfMarch 9. Candidates
for state representatives and sen
ators will be interviewed by
local leagues. Candidates for the
U. S. Senate and House of Rep
resentatives in the four congres
sional districts in Oregon will
also receive questionnaires from
the state league office. When the
candidates return the ques
tionnaires, the answers are com
piled and forwarded to all of the
local leagues in the state for use
in their local "Know Your Can
didates" paper.
Delegates to the national
convention of the League of
Women Voters of the United
States to be held April 30
through May 4 at the Hotel Sher
man, Chicago, will be Mrs. Ron
ald K. Campbell, Corvallis, state
president, and Mrs. K. E. Mont
gomery, Eugene, first vice-president.
Alternate is Mrs. Robert
J. Wiener, Portland, second vice
president. Program for the bien
nium 1956-58 will be voted upon
at this convention.
Proposed program items are
"Conservation of Water
Resources" and Evaluation of
the federal loyalty- security pro
grams, recognizing the need for
safeguarding national security
and " protecting individual lib
erties." Other program items
may be proposed from the floor
if proper notification of the
intent to do so is given to. the
national league board.
The state organization com
mittee reported favorably on
investigations made in The
Dalles and Springfield and the
committee will go ahead with
the preliminary organization
work necessary in these two
cities before a provisional league
may be established.
The provisional league in Os
wego was recommended to the
national league board for local
league status.
The state board of the League
accepted .with regret the resigna
tion of Mrs. Jerome L. Holzman,
Portland, as she is planning td
become an active political party
worker. The non-partisan policy
of the league does not permit
board members to actively sup
port candidates' during their
term of office although it urges
all other members to be active in
the party of their choice.
Plans for the state -League
council meeting to be held at the
Ocean House in Gearhart May
14, 15, and 16 were discussed
and a committee to plan a pro
gram for the meeting was
appointed. Serving on the pro
gram committee' are Mrs. Carl
Ott, Forest Grove, Mrs. J. Rich
ard Nokes, Portland, and Mrs.
Robert J. Wiener, Portland. The
Beaverton league will act as
hostess league for the council
meeting.

ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
only one to refuse to enter into
the entertainment provided by
the hostess. It would be a great
pity to deprive her of the fun
of attending the parties her
friends give.
I suggest you bring up the
question of kissing games at the
next PTA meeting and set forth
your views about the matter.
Then let the other mothers and
teachers state their side of the
question. It is always good to
discuss it in public.
Boys Get Idea
Kissing games gives boys the
idea that girls are "easy marks"
for petting in private. If a girl
at 13 or 14 years of age, is will
ing to engage in kissing games,
a year or two later when she
dates a boy alone, he will expect
her to engage in petting, some
of which may go so far that the
girl will not know how to check
it.
Then too, kissing games en
courage young people to dwell
too much on sex. While it is true
they are interested in sex at this
age and curious to know what
the lure of sex is, sanctioning
expressions of it in public gives
boys a "go ahead" signal which
makes things difficult for young
girls to handle.

Main and
Hospital Director
Disputes Fact of
Nurses Shortage
Chicago 0J.R) A hospital
director and his assistant dis
pute that there is an actual
shortage of registered nurses.
"It has not been proved that
there is an actual national short
age of graduate nurses if the
nurses were limited to actual
nursing duties," said Dr. Albert
W. Snoke and Richard B. Og
rean. Snoke, director of the Grace
New Haven Community hospi
tal of New Haven, Conn., and
Ogrean, assistant director, made
the statement in an article in
Hospitals, journal of the Amer
ican Hospital association.
They said there should be-
more efficient use of profession
al nurses, re-evaluation of the
patient's nursing needs, and
greater utilization of practical
nurses, students and aides.
"Responsibilities for clerical,
housekeeping, dietary and ad
ministrative activities should be
taken from the nurse and given
to other hospital personnel,"
they said.
"We believe that uneconomi
cal and inefficient use of grad
uate nurses in non-nursing ac
tivities can be demonstrated in
every hospital in this country
including our town." .
