dent; Mrs. John Devereaux,
Bandon, second vice-president,
Mrs. Carl Peterson, Ashland,
district president, presided.
"People lack power in propor
tion to their lack of knowledge,"
Dr. Kreisman said, and declared
both history and the backward
nations of today prove this point.
"We 'in America are blessed
with great libraries and commu
nication facilities x which offer
everyone an opportunity for
gaining knowledge," Dr. Kreis
man said. "Though we possess
a great overall mass of knowl
edge, there is still a serious lag
between the overall mass and
the individual; this'results in ig
norance, misery and misunder
standing," the "speaker contin
ued. Ignorance Cited
Less obvious forms of ignor
ance of sex knowledge, religion,
race, materialism and of the
bonds of outmoded rules and
manners of the past bring mis
ery, hatred and strife, he stress
ed. "The basic need is to seek
the truth through knowledge,"
Dr. Kreisman said in conclu
sion. "Any house built on false
hood will fall from inward cor
rosion." Mrs. Rossman talked on the
history of the Federated Wom
en's clubs, organized in New
York in 1868 by three women
and which now has a member
ship of 11 millions. Achieve
ments of the past year in Ore
gon were reviewed and stress
placed on those departments
where greater activity is need
ed. She said emphasis is being
placed on the Community

for greater participation in pub
lic affairs was stressed by Mrs.
Rossman.

Outdoor Living Tips
Given by Architect
. Madison, Wis. (U.PJ Now
is the time to start planning for
outdoor living this summer, 'Jo
seph Elfner, University of Wis
consin landscape architect, said.
Elfner' said the first step in
planning is to pick an area that
is convenient to the house with
probably some type of paved
area as a solid floor for equip
ment. :
For furniture, Elfner suggests
choosing something that's com
fortable, attractive and weather-
proofed. Enclosure overhead and
around the sides should be con
sidered - along with screened
areas for night-time use.
