Dedicated Imagination
Said Keystone to Living
Dedicated imagination is
the major keystone to a happy
and fruitful life, and new op
portunities, according to the
Rev. Ned Burr McKenney,
who spoke last evening for a
meeting of Siskiyou Knife
and Fork club, held at Tally
Ho restaurant. The speaker
was introduced by Dr. Earl
L. Lawson, Medford, club
president, who ; announced
that this was the last meeting
of the season. The club will
begin sessions again in Oct
ober. The Rev. Mr. McKenney's
topic was "Passport to Un
usual Opportunities." The min
ister declared that life was
meant to be interesting, ex
citing, and filled with mean
ing, and those persons who
are not now achieving this
should endeavor to reorganize
their thinking and living.
Most adults of the United
States do not cultivate their
imagination, and do not real
ize what an active imagina
tion can do to enrich daily
living, he said. He cited such
men as Wilbur and Orville
Wright, inventors of the air
plane, Dr. Frank Laubach,
who started the world-wide
"each one teach one" cam
paign to fight illiteracy and
Thomas Jefferson, early-day
American statesman, as men
who had the imagination to
realize what can be accom
plished to change life.
Americans Realists
Americans pride themselves
on being "realists" he said,
when actually they are mostly
just "factualists." The speak
er added that Americans dis
like unpleasant facts,' and
failed to realize that "good
possibilities are wrapped up
in distasteful facts."
The Rev. Mr. McKenney
repeated a conversation with
the famous historian, Arnold
J. Toynbee, who when asked
to describe what historians of
the future would say about
this generation, declared this
generation would not be
known for decline and" decay,
but as the "first generation
which dared to believe that
the welfare of all mankind
can be improved."
'.- The speaker listed "visas
to the passport of life" as in
dustry and hard vork, a sense
of humor, an appreciation of
others, optimism, humbleness,
reverence for life and dedi
cated imagination.
He added that "We in this
country seem to have lost our
enthusiasm for good, hard
work" and "If our dream for
the welfare of this country
is to be an expanding dream,
some of us are going to have
to work more than seven
