Four out of five .Americans believe in the United Nation?, but
only one of the four does something about this belief. This is
one of the sobering facts brought out by UX publications received
here last week in preparation for the annual observance of United
Nations week.
With the tense world situation adding impetus to plans started
weeks ago, Mayor John Snider. UN chapter president George
Rode and Mrs. Harlan Bosworth. chapter program chairman, and
others are hard at work to focus the attention of all valley citizens
on the United Nations, its hopes and accomplishments.
The chapter will hold a special meeting Tuesday night in the
annex of St. Mark's church to observe United Nations day. and
Mayor Snider's committee plans a dinner Thursday night at the
Medford hotel.
Potpourri and PH were delighted when 71 reporters and com
munity correspondents turned out for the annual training class
Wednesday afternoon. Two of the correspondents also turned the
class into a reunion after 20 vears. Mrs. Clyde Kell. Gold Hill.
the former Mary Force, and Mrs. Charles Hughes, Central Point,
the former Doris Johnson, attended high school together in Gold
Hill, and had not seen one another since the former graduated
in 1937.
When Mrs. Kell started to write for the Tribune about a year
ago, Mrs. Hughes read her columns and at length called her
friend and they chatted over the phone. Mrs. Hughes finally de
cided that if Mary Kell could write a column for Gold Hill, she
could do the same for Central Point, and made the arrangements.
But it was not until Wednesday's press school that the two former
schoolmates met again.
Actor Bill Oylcr is still spending a part of every week day
reading back issues of The Mail Tribune and its predecessor. The
Southern Oregonian, as he does research on early-day theater in
the Rogue valley.
There's no better way to find examples of "then and now"
such as this item in the Southern Oregonian on November 9, 1907.
"The barber shop proprietors of Ashland got together the other
day and prices of some of their products have gone up a notch.
The price of a plain shave remains 15 cents, but haircuts here
after will cost 35 cents. Single neck shaves will be 10 cents (5
cents in connection with other work.) Curling the mustache will
be 10 cents. Those who indulge themselves in a massage will pay
35 cents, while the price of a shampoo is fixed at 25 cents. Shops
will remain closed Sundays and holidays, and will close each
evening except Saturday at 8 o'clock."

mix the greens for salads simply
by tumbling them in two poly

make one leak-proof container.
A measuring cup is provided in
the bottom of one bowl for the
dressing. The bowl also indi

specific servings. After the
bowl is filled with ingredients
it is covered with its top bowl

Last week In this column we wrote about mistakes. Which
turned out to be a mistake. And so this may be the last time
Potpourri ever writes ABOUT mistakes. Nothing further do we
promise. Last week when Mrs. John McCabe came back from
San Francisco, where she attended the opera and visited with her
son, Stephen, she called Potpourri and the two of us had a crying
towel session over the results of our collaboration on the Kelly
McCabe wedding story. Mrs. McCabe, we might add, remained
calmer over the entire affair than did Potpourri.
A scanning of the wedding questionnaire, for about the steenth
time, disclosed the fact that the name of Eugene Piazza was not
on the list of ushers. However, this in no way consoled the society
editor for the fact that the paper had substituted the name of
the bride's brother-in-law for her father at one point in the story.
Reporting on the trip, Mrs. McC. said she had enjoyed the two
opera performances very much, and that her son, who is studying
for the priesthood, had been able to attend one production. Stephen
is now enrolled in St. Albert's House of Study, Oakland, Calif.
Mrs. McCabe had made her stay in the city more enjoyable
also by having a small party, including among the guests the
newly married Patrick Fords (Cynthia Jackson) and Dr. Brian
j Stringer and his wife, the former Jane Durno. The Stringers, who
went to Dr. Stringer's home city in New Zealand to live after
their wedding, have now returned to the United States and are 1
living in San Francisco while Dr. Stringer serves a residency in
one of the hospitals.
The dog which recently bit Policeman Tomlin Furnas is
making the officer famous. At least, his name is traveling around
the world. Saturday's mail brought a note from Mrs. Roy Funder
burk, the former Alicia Abbott of Phoenix, who said she read
of the incident in the Tokyo edition of Pacific Stars and Stripes.
"You can imagine the thrill I received to find some news of
a very dear city over 7.000 miles away," she wrote. Mrs. Funder-
; burk's husband is stationed at the Yokosuka Naval base in Japan,
and she flew to Japan to join him last spring, leaving the same
day that she was graduated from high school. O.S.
Woman Teaching Government
Employees Letter Writing
By PETE ROBINSON
United Press Correspondent
Washington A charming
land attractive woman from
Laurel, Miss., is out to kill the
I "gobbledygook" of the English
language.
She is Miss Kay Pearson, who
is teaching federal government
I employees to write letters that
I other people can understand.
The word "gobbledygook" re-
; fers to the long-winded, confus
ing and sometimes meaningless
: language in government corre
; spondence. And since the gov
ernment writes more than a bil
lion letters every year, with
tne taxpayer, juiss Pearson s job
his an important one.
l She alreadv has marked nn
victories although the "plain
letters workshop" isn't a year
old. It operates under the gov
ernment's General Services Ad-
: ministration, which seeks to
; simplify government paperwork.
The workshop has been held
for 30 agencies since it started
last January. And federal offi
cials already are handing in
glowing reports of the reada
bility of the letters that cross
their desk?.
When Kay Pearson is not
showing the government how to
get to the point quickly, she's
' probably out in the garden of
the Georgetown home she
shares with two other women.
She is devoted to the garden
and tends it the year round.
Varied Career
One administration official
said he never has seen that gar
den, but "If she works at it like
she does around here, it's really
something."
Miss Pearson received her
Master of Arts degree in Eng
lish from the University of Ala
bama and later taught English
literature and composition at a
junior college in Mississippi.
She started work for the gov
ernment in 1935 when she join
ed the Census Bureau and since
then has worked for the Public
! Health Service, the Treasury
i Department, the Veteran's Ad
' ministration and the Navy.
Popular with both the big and
little brass in General Services.
; she has a reputation for kind
; ness and courtesy.
: Miss Pearson is confident that
sooner or later, the plain letters
workshop can be given to all of
the government's nearly 22 hun
dred agencies. Recently the
Army invited her over to the
Pentagon and there is talk that
the Internal Revenue Bureau
may ask for the workshop.
