"You can overdo it by mak

real companion to him, like

However, he cautioned that

the use of books by children
irn to seven years of aee.
However, a child of seven
or older, he said, might be
: encouraged to love and care
; for good books by being giv-
Jen one or two of what he
; called the "Sunday-go-to-
meeting" kind - books that
the children would take care
of as much as their most treas
ured possessions. These could
- be "long-range" books that in
itlaliy father or mother might
have to read to the children.
In discussing the care of
books, Smith said that their
"Achilles heel" is the June-
tion of the binding and the
cover. This joint is stiff when
a person buys a book, he said,
and restraint should be used
In opening the volume.
Mew Book Caze
In opening a new book, he
advised laying it down on its
spine. He would open coven
one at a time, pressing gently
in and down. Then, holding
the pages upright, he would
take about one-eighth of an
Inch of the pages and press
them down, gently running a
hand along . the . inner edge
and working both sides to the
center.
In putting books on shelves,
"Smith said, they should be
placed reasonably close to
gether to provide support for
each other. A leaning book
will get out " of shape. He
warns against jamming books
tightly so that "the top of
the spine" is damaged when
it is pulled out.
. Sunlight or other strong
light fades and ages books by
making them brittle, Smith
continued. Ideally, books
should be kept in tempera
tures of about 70 degrees and
50 degrees relative humidity.
Avoid extremes in tempera
ture. Tor this reason, attics
usually are not the best place
in which to store books.
"Books like the same sort
-of thing people do and they
like to live with people . . .
A reasonable degree of use
is the best way to preserve a
book-it keeps it flexible,"
Smith said.
He. termed bookmarks con
venient if they are thin and
light but pencils or other
comparatively heavy articles

Alaska has inspired, a line
of hats by Miss Mary. The
milliner named one silhouette
the ."kayak." It's a narrow
hat, ' softly rounded and jut
ting forward. Made of straw
cloth, it is trimmed with
straw braids, stiletto quills
pointing northwest, or forget-me-nots
in reindeer shades.
She also designed parkas of
flowers and veiling for days
and after-five wear.
For women who want a
modified Empire line, manu
facturer Larry Aldrich shows
dresses with waistlines raised
only slightly,. The Empire ef
fect is achieved by wearing
wide belts from the waist up
instead of at the natural
waistline.
"At home" evenings are
becoming dressier, reports the
National Shoe Institute. The
reason: Women's desire to
pretty-up for the men in lei
sure hours, television, saving
of wear and tear on daytime
clothes, and an increase in
home entertaining. This trend
shows in fancy flats, such as
a pair in bright red velvet
trimmed with rhinestone bars
and green "cat's whiskers."
A Philadelphia designer,
Laura Lou Bates, has
dreamed up a sheath with six
lives. The dress, in basic
black peau d'ange, may be
worn with a bubble jacket as
a theater costume, with a
black chiffon overblouse, a
gold lace overdress, "a black
silk organdy trapeze over
dress with white embroidery,

Governor's Inaugural Address
Reviewed; Many Reforms
Election of a president and
a review of Governor Mark
Hatfield's inaugural address
occupied the attention of
Jackson County Republican
Women when they met Mon
day noon at Ping's Gardens.
Mrs. Murray Gardiner was
elected president of the group
to replace Mrs. Frank Bash,
who has resigned. Mrs. Gar
diner has been serving as
vice-chairman of the Jackson
County Republican central
committee.
In beginning his review of
Governor Hatfield's inaugural
address, Frank Van Dyke,
Medford attorney, declared
'It is the best of all such in
augural addresses I have
heard" and added that it had
more specific suggestions for
efficiency and reform "stated
bluntly and f orthrightly"
than any governor had made
for many years.
The attorney said one of the
new governor's most impor
tant suggestions was that a
convention be called soon to
revise Oregon's constitution.
This is a most controversial
matter, Mr. Van Dyke said,
and one which has been
thought needed for a long
time but "no one has had the
courage to actually propose
it officially."
The Governor put the
stamp of approval on the
merit system for selection of
state: employees. Mr. Van
Dyke quoted the governor as
saying that he believes in
come and other present taxes
will increase sufficiently to
bear the cost s of operating
state government and also the
cost of new buildings needed
at colleges and other institu
tions. The attorney disgressed
at this point to say he thought
the governor was too optimis
tic in this belief, and said "we
have to do something about
the tax structure of this state
if our economy is to expand.'
Economy Noted
Reviewing statements in the
address . about economy in
government, Mr. Van Dyke
stated that Governor Hatfield
recommended abolishment of
some of the state's commis
sions and bureaus, and con
solidation of others. "Commis
sions have grown like Topsy,"
said Mr. Van Dyke, adding
that this part of the gover
nor's program will probably
evoke protests , from "irate
citizens." The proposals in
clude one to combine the
state, engineer's office with
the water resources board,
changes in the Oregon Board
of Forestry, a proposal to put
inheritance taxes under the
supervision of the Oregon Tax
commission , instead of the
club, Nevita chapter 93, OES,

state treasurer, changes for
the utilities commission and
boxing commission, and sev
eral other bureau and com
mission changes.
The speaker pointed out
that Governor Hatfield is a
political scientist and because
of his wide knowledge of the
theory of government, be
lieves Oregon government
can be improved by doing
away with or combining
about 20 or 25 agencies.
The address contained a
passage on civil service-the
governor hopes to encourage
more young people to enter
government as a profession.
He also recommended anoth
er impartial survey of educa
tion in the state in order to
meet changing conditions and
here Mr. Van Dyke pointed
out that since the state pro
vides a large share of school
funds, the state must set some
standards. The study would
include one on the present
distribution formula for state
school funds, he said, and the
governor also recommended
appointment rather than elec
tion of a state superintendent
of schools, increasing the
Oregon Board of Higher Edu
cation from 9 to 12 members,
and the Oregon Board of Ed
ucation from 7 to 9 persons.
OTI Approved
Governor - Hatfield also
wants Oregon Technical Insti
tute at Klamath Falls contin
ued, believes rural school dis
trict laws need revision, and
also believes elementary and
secondary school system
plants should be fully util
ized. '
Mr. Van Dyke reported that
the governor's address gave
thought to the importance of
youth, said he wants the
state's adoption laws strength
ened and believes in the the
ory of adoptions for needy
children rather than the fos
ter home plan now widely
in use in Oregon.
The governor proposed a
plan whereby citizens over
65 might be relieved of some
of the tax load under certain
circumstances, and advocates
a change in auto insurance
laws
Under judicial reform, Gov
ernor Hatfield believes that
a state . judicial commission
should be set up under the so
called Missouri plan, and ad
vocates appointment of
chief justice on a permanent
rather than revolving basis.
He believes the . district
court's jurisdiction should be
broadened-this would in ef
fect do away with some of
the power of the justices of
the peace-and wants all juve-

Governor Hatfield advanced
ideas dealing with the har
vesting of the state's re
sources, and changes for the
board of agriculture, advo
cates repeal of the state's anti
picketing laws and would
seek a better relationship
with labor, the attorney re
ported. Along this line, the
governor also advocates
changes in the unemployment
compensation law and be
lieves there is too much re
striction in seeking and find
ing jobs for the unemployed.
Concerning state institu
tions. Governor Hatfield
would improve the out-patient
program for mental institu
tions as a means to prevent
increasing the size of the
present ones.
On the highway system
problem, the speaker report
ed that the new governor had
said either an increase in gas
oline taxes must be made or
Oregon must forego the fed
eral government's matching
funds.
The address advocated
changes in campaign and elec
tion laws, reforms to bring
closer cooperation between
city, county and state govern
ment, and the governor said
he approved a pay increase
for legislators. Mr. Van Dyke
expressed the opinion here
that Governor Hatfield basic
ally believes that the bica
meral legislative system may
prove too expensive, forcing
states into the unicameral sys
tem.
: The speaker reviewed the
governor's "novel plan" for
succession and retirement of
governors - he believes that
the secretary of state should
be next in line rather than
the president of the senate.
He would also set up a three
man board which would rule
on the ability of a governor
to serve m event of a physi
cal or mental disability.
Mr. Van Dyke closed by
saying that "we have here a
potentially great governor"
and added that citizens should
give him their support on the
changes which they approve.
During the business session
the women discussed future
