History of Federations
Given for Travel Club
Mrs. Carl W. Peterson, Ash
land, first district president
of Oregon Federation of Wom
,en's Clubs, was guest speaker
for a meeting of Travel Study
club Tuesday at the home of
Mrs. Edward C. Root, Jack
sonville highway.
Mrs. Peterson spoke on the
General Federation of Wom
en's clubs, and Oregon Fed
eration of Women's clubs.
Mrs. Peterson said it all
began in 1868 when the well
know newspaper woman, Jen
nie June Croly, was barred
from attending a dinner giv
en by the New York Press
club honoring Charles Dick
ens, She was aroused by this
discrimination against women
and decided there was a def
inite need for a Woman's
club. She organized a club
which was called Corosis.
Many similar groups were
formed and in March 1890,
' they met to form a federation.
Thus Sorosis has been called
the "mother" of the General
Federation.

Swimming Class
Planned at Y
Swimming instruction for
mothers and their pre-school
children will start Wednes
day, February 4, at 10:30 a.m
at the YMCA. Mrs. Lanell
Wilkes, instructor, teaches
the mothers the techniques of
swimming and to enjoy the
water and they 'in turn teach
the children.
The classes are held Wed
nesdays and Fridays from

will include 15 lessons. A
limited number of mothers
who are not members of the
YMCA may register for the
class.
In 1910 the United States
government granted a charter
to the organization. In 67
years, it has grown to be the
largest group o f organized
women in the world. It has
a membership of 11,000,000
in 58 countries, mere are
15,000 .clubs in the United
States.
The Oregon Federation was
admitted to the General Fed
eration in 1901, Mrs. Peter
son said. Oregon club women
paid for the statue of Saca-
jawea at a cost of $6,000 for
the Lewis and Clark fair.
There was $40,000, and 1870
girls have been aided in then
education. During the years,
the Oregon Federation of
Women's clubs has helped
many organizations, she said.
There are about 110 clubs
in Oregon and the goal is a
membership of 6,000 by 1960.
Mrs. Clay M. Lee, presi
dent, presided at the business
session, and presented Mrs.

the U. S. The name was re
rived from the settlers from
England. Many fine gems
come from the southwest area
in Maine, and an amethyst
necklace which came from
there was shown to the group.
New Hampshire's outstand
ing physical feature is White
Mountain, 6288 feet high, the
highest in New England states.
The Cog railway is the only
in the country. A granite pro
file of the old Man of the
Mountain is above Profile

Vermont produces more
maple syrup than any other
state. Over 3 million trees
are tapped annually. Mrs. Fa
sel said there are many cov
ered bridges. Colonel Enoch
Hale's bridge over Conneti
cut River at Bellows Falls was
built in 1785, and 385 feet
long. It is the first famed tim
ber bride in America.
The Sterling Memorial Li
brary of Yale is one of the
worlds largest and finest, con
taining about 4 million books.
The famous Payne Whitney
gymnasium of Yale is t h e
largest such structure in the
world.
Over one-third of the United j
States population lives within j
a circle of 500 miles of the
center of Massachusetts. Mary
Baker Eddy established the
First Church of Christ Sci
entist in 1879, in Boston.
During the refreshment
hour Mrs. Peterson poured
from a table centered with
an arrangement of red and
white carnations and small
birds accenting the table.
The next meeting will be
Tuesday, February 24.
"I'm just like Alice (in "Alice in Wonderland") said a
recent note from Mrs. C. F. Risse. "It takes all the running
I can do to stay in'the same place." Mrs. Risse isn't the only
one who has to run hard to just keep up, and Potpourri
knows for sure that things will get worse before they get
better. Take a look at this week for instance, with the
Mardi Gras ball coming on Friday night, and the Beta
Sigma Phi Valentine ball Saturday night.
But life is even more hectic in Salem, where the social
kettle comes to a boil during the sessions of the Legislature.
Mrs. Evelyn (Stephen G.) Nye, member of the House of
Representatives, reported in at the Mail Tribune briefly
Saturday morning and said she skipped a couple of tradi
tional parties for legislators in order to spend the week
end with her family. Mrs. Nye said the legislators had fin
ished "the shake down" and already are hard at work. The
lady lawmaker looked exceedingly smart in a brown dress
worn with a short beige colored leather coat, a small round
leather hat in tangerine shade with matching scarf and ear
rings. Mrs. Nye commented on the pictures of the Robert Dun
can family and Mrs. William McAllister on our desk. As the
wife of the speaker of the House of Representatives, Mrs.
Duncan is taking an important part in the social life of the
capital. Mrs. McAllister, whose husband is the new chief
justice of the Oregon Supreme Court, has as many friends
in her former home town of Medford as she does in Salem.
One of her Medford friends, Mrs. Raymond Miksche, made
the beautiful plaque which can be seen on the wall above
the fireplace in today's picture.
How glad we are not to be living in Russia. For more
reasons than one. Bess Watkins added a postscript to one
of her stories recently which said that a book she read had
this interesting information: In Russia applicants for a
license to drive a car must know how to dismantle and
reassemble an engine. Potpourri can't, even change a tire.
It would be interesting to know how many Jackson county
residents could qualify for motor vehicle licenses under
such rules.
Dr. Margaret Sloan of the National Research council
recently toured Russia. Dr. "Sloan was permitted to visit
homes with Russian physicians as they made their rounds,
and reported that Russians are more desperate for living
space than Americans trying to find housing in such cities
as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, .beds are to De
found in every room of the homes, and, sometimes even in
the halls, she said.
Another aspect of Russian living impressed her tremen
dously. Russians read a lot, she reported. They read so much
that book stores are to be founcf in almost every block -
some blocks have two or three.
Wernher Von Brauri sees the . revelations now coming
from space exploration as "evidence of God's immense
plan," according to a UPI report.
He warns that unless man will accept divine guidance,
he may be tempted to "exploit space with aggressive de
signs" and try to dominate earth by conquering the, universe.
The German-born rocket expert who heads the Army's
missile program told a session of the Woman's Forum on
National Security Friday:
"The first ventures into regions beyond the sensible
atmosphere have produced new knowledge" which points up
the beatuy and order of creation, which verifies the natural
laws governing all life and which logically should enhance
our reverence."-O.S. .

Born in India into a family

Rehana Latif was an honor
student from early boarding
school days through universi
ty and graduate study. Many
of her teachers were Euro

that she had "the wonderfully
good luck of being introduced
to the Orient as well as the
Occident right from child
hood." Her family moved to
Pakistan after she had gradu
ated from the Muslim univer
sity of Aligarh, India, so that
her study was continued at
Sind university of Karachi.
Later she came to the Univer
sity of California in Berkeley
from which she received her
M.A. in economics in 1951.
Following this she went to
Washington, D. C, to study
the U. S. Social Security sys
tem. She joined the World
Bank which arranged for her
to do research work at the
Federal Security agency. In
Washington she met Mr. Is
lam, who had been sent by the
Pakistan government to take
part in a training program..
They were married at the Em
bassy of Pakistan and on their
return trip to Pakistan in 1952
they saw much of Europe and
the Middle East. Mr. Islam is
deputy director of audit in the
Pakistan government. They
have a three year old son.
At present Mrs. Islam's
mother is caring, for the little
boy while Mrs. Islam is again
at Berkely working on her
doctorate. On completion of
her studies she expects to as
sist the Pakistan Planning
board in the drafting of a so
cial security system for Pakistan.
