IP tip En ITU'S Last week was another of those run" weeks for the society editor. and was was hurry, hurry, eat Monday noon it lnnnhmn with the Kiwanian Dames, Monday night it purely for pleasure Culture Vultures; Thursday noon it was luncheon with the Red Cross and then on to the country rluH for th nartv which Sojourners gave for the Klamath Falls club; Thursday night it was dinner with the DOKK's who entertained a man with the imposing title of "Imperial Prisee" and Friday niaht again purely for pleasure we went calling with a former society editor of the Mail Trib une. Mondav noon we met Mrs. Jack Murton, Gresham, the friendlv wife of the Northwest district governor of the Kiwanis club. Among other topics, we discussed the present- day tendency for all men to be called by some nickname or the other, and Mrs. Murton said her husband's name is really "Jack" that once when opportunity presented, he took tne name legally in preference to one selected by his parents. From what the society editor hears, parents, particularly mothers, do a very poor job of picking out names which will please their male offspring Thursday noon we greeted the Harlow Carpenters, here from Vermont for a visit with his parents, the Alfred S. V.'s, and who are leaving tomorrow by plane for home. In con versation with Mrs. C. and Mrs. Helen Stoery, Eugene, a Red Cross volunteer in the home nursing field, the talk naturally turned to the new Rogue Valley Memorial hospital. Recalling the thousands of visitors who swarmed through the new building during a two-day open house, Mrs. Car penter said that everyone had been most grateful to Mrs. Ethel Tennant who dropped all her other duties and set up an impromptu nursery to care for children while their elders toured the building. Twas hardly anything for Mrs T., however, who has operated the Medford nursery school for many years and knows just what to dp for the small fry of all ages. She was given a helping hand by her assistant at Medford Nursery school, Mrs. Bonnie Robertson, and 10 or 12 members of Medford Junior Service league. About 80 or 85 kiddies were watched over durirg the two afternoons. The visiting retired society editor was Mrs. Walter Allen, the former Betty Shoemaker of Roseburg. The Aliens, now live in Cottage Grove, where he is distributor for Union Oil company. (Betty A. 'is here to visit their daughter and son-in-law, the Donald Pearsons of Ross lane. The Pearson's daughter was the first child born in the new hospital). The two of us went calling on Mrs. E. C. Ferguson Friday night, and enjoyed her colorful account of a trip which she made last winter with Mrs. Diamond Flynn to Mexico, Panama and Costa Rica. The two women bravely set out for Mexico City by bus, and discovered, the hard way, that they should have taken heavy coats and blankets. Arriving after days and nights of practically freezing to death,, they arrived in Mexico City with visions of a nice warm , hotel room only to discover that the Mexicans don't bother with such trifles as heat in hotel rooms. After a few days of sight-seeing the travelers enplaned for Panama, discovering in the process that one cannot leave Mexico City for Panama unless one has a return ticket for somewhere anywhere, firmly in hand, and not one, Head of Dramatic Order Guest of Oregon Temple liPllilliilliilPili Frank A. Wood, Youngs town, Ohio, imperial prince of Dramatic Order, Knights of Khorassan, was honored at a reception and ceremonies Thursday evening given by Fuhat Burkan temple of the order in the Pythian building here. During a dinner Mayor John W. Snider presented the visitor a golden key to the city, and welcomed him to the Rogue valley. Here were L. L. Patterson, Roseburg, royal vizier of Fu hat Burkan temple, and C. Preston Hart, imperial repre sentative from El Adil tem ple, Eugene, and Mrs. Hart and Votary J. Slurgin; Ed C.

During the dinner Imperial Prince Wood spoke of his travels throughout the United States and of the philanth ropic and social welfare pro jects of, the Knights of Py thias " and the . DOKK. He spoke of Oregon as "God's country" and said residents here could scarcely know how fortunate they are to live in the Pacific northwest.

After buying the tickets which assured the officials that the two Medford women did not want to spend the rest of their lives in Panama, Mrs. Flynn then had to return to downtown Mexico City, dash into Woolworths store and get a picture from one of those handy machines which take a "mug shot" for a quarter. She shud ders yet at the way. it turned out, but the Mexican officials were happy with it, anyway. The two women enjoyed three weeks in Panama with Mrs. Flynn's daughter and son-in-law, including a round of farewell parties since the couple was being transferred to a city in neighboring Costa Rica, and then went with them to their new home. They arrived just in time for the fiesta which followed a national election and were greeted with the sound of revelry which included honking automobile horns all day and most of the night. Mrs. F. had interesting stories about Panamanian and Costa Rican native customs, one of which is the serving of cocktails to customers while they liesurely shop. Prices are reasonable on native goods, the two women found, but not on American imports. Campbell's soup sells for $1 a can and instant coffee for S3 a jar.
