V
Ja the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Let's talk about women to
lay. What do they want most?
Especially, what do they
want most out of the future?
THE national headquarters
of the YWCA got inter
ested in these questions a
while back. So, as many
another organization has
done, it MADE A SURVEY.
The survey covered 10,000
women, from teen-age to sep
tuagenarians. They answered
qustionnaires on what would
you like most to add to your
life?
What led the list?
You'd be surprised.
Of the 10,000, ranging in
age from 12 to 50-plus, 58
per cent named TRAVEL as
their No. 1 desire. No. 2 will
surprise you even more. Fifty
seven per cent of the respond
ents said thy were chiefly
interested in UNDERSTAND
ING OTHER PEOPLE!

By CAROL ANDERSON
Six weeks tests were given
Thursday and Friday, April
16 and 17. Report cards will
be issued at Phoenix Grade
school April 22.
Teresa Mata recently en
rolled in Lewis C- Bertrand's
seventh grade room. She is
from Stella Mayfeld's grade
school, Elgin, Ore. Other new
enrollments are Roger Roy,

Calif., in John D. Stewart's

HMMMMMMM- That IS im
portant, isn't it?
' In fact, it's VERY import
ant. If you understand people,
you can GET ALONG with
other people.
If you can get along with
other people, you'll be likely
to lead a pleasant life- If you
can't get along with other
people, you'll be apt to be in
hot water most of your days
HERE are a few other preferences:
Looks and grooming
More friends
Dancing
Cooking skill
Sewing
Reading books
Sports
Money management
Science
Marriage didn't enter into
the study, but onfe teen-ager,

"Any activity you would like
to include which is not in

IN CONCLUSION, let's get
back to the No. 2 yearning
getting along with other peo
ple. Perhaps the best answer
given to that, down through
the long centuries was pro
vided by Goethe, who said:
"If you want to undersand
yourself, watch how other
people act;
"If you want to understand
other people, LOOK INTO
YOUR OWN HEART."

Small Lumber
Producers To Meet
Roseburg - The second in a
series of meetings for inde

from Coos, Curry, Douglas,

and Lake counties will be
held at the Umpqua hotel here

Ellerd L. Larkins, presi
dent of the recently formed

not have effective representa

taining relief from problems
pressing the independent pro
ducer. "Availability of timber,
access roads, equitable taxa
tion, maximum allowable cuts
and smaller timber parcels
bidding also are included on
the agenda for the associa

Cooking Studied
Members of Girl Scout
Troop 74 spent April 18 at
Touvelle State park learning
outdoor cooking methods. De
spite illnesses, 23 girls partic
ipated and were aided by four
Senior Scout program aides
and six adults.
The girls worked in three
patrols, with each group pre
paring a different main
course. Buddy burners were
also demonstarted with bacon
and pancakes being cooked on
these.
Patrol 1 prepared a one pot
meal, hunter's stew, and had
a fruit salad and s'mores for
dessert; patrol 2 tried stick
cookery with biscuit dough
and frankfurters. They also
had fruit salad and s'mores.
Patrol 3 cooked coffee can
stews and made graham
cracker cream pies and a
fruit salad. The girls passed
requirements for the outdoor
cook badge and made prepar
ations for an overnight to
Camp Chinkapin May 8-9.
Patrol leaders for Troop 74
are, Christine Bartels, Sandra
Irving and Christine Finch.
Senior Scouts who- were pro
gram aides on the cook-out
were Cassie Thompsen, Ann
Barker, Diane Lewis and
Sherrie Pritchard. Leader of
the troop is Mrs. Richard
Finch and she is assisted by
Mrs. Berwick Wood, Mrs.
John McCann, and Mrs. Jer
old Poulus. Mrs. Jerry Gasti
neau and Mrs. B. E. Budge
also assisted with the cook-out.
Salem -(UPD- The Oregon
House Tuesday concurred in
Senate amendments to House
bill 425 which would add $4
million for improvement of
Highway 42 to a bond issue
of S24 million for a new high
way toll bridge across the
Columbia river at Astoria.
Vote on the measure was
43-17. The bill now goesvto
the governor for signature.
Chief opposition came from
Rep. George Annala (D-Hood
River) who maintained that
adding the Highway 42 im
provement plan would disrupt
plans for improving Oregon
roads on a regional basis.
Stale Divided
The Highway Department
divides the state into five
major regions and appropri
ates money for construction
and improvement on that
basis.
Annala said that about a
4-H Club News
Betsy Dunlevy and Joan Es
linger gave a demonstration
on how to entertain for the
Stitch in Time 4-H club. They
showed ways of introducing
guests and other things to do
to have a good party. After
the demonstration, the club
got out material to make
stuffed toys. Mrs. Miller had
several different patterns,
some fish, cats, horses, and
the girls took their pick.
Several girls went on the
tree planting project at Butte
Falls. They planted about 200
ponderosa pine seedlings.
They had a fire to roast
marshmallows even though it
did rain. One girl fell in the
creek and got wet. On the way
home a visit was made to the
fish hatchery.
The last meeting of the
Stitch in Time club was at
Betsy Dunlevy's. Each girl
displayed things she made,
pin cushions, needle cases,
scarves and stuffed toys. All
the mothers were the"re to see
the things, and we had a birth
day party for Betsy. The girls
watched the Pear Blossom Pa
rade in the afternoon.

million dollars a year which
would be spent on other proj
ects would be lost through
the bond issue for the two
projects.
Rep. W. H. Holmstrom (D
Gearhart) moved that the
House concur in the Senate
amendments and re-pass the
bill. He said that both proj
ects were urgently needed and
that a bond issue was the only
way to get them.
Holmstrom explained that
the Astoria bridge would not
be built until Washington
entered into contract with
Oregon to share profits or
losses from the proposed toll
structure between Astoria and
Megler, Wsh. .
Agreement in Bill
Highway 42 is not mention
ed directly in the bill, but
Holmstrom said there was an
agreement with the Highway
Department that the money
would be used for improving
the road between Roseburg
and Coquille.
A Game Commission bud
get of $9 million caused quite
a hassle in the House before
it was passed and sent to the
Senate.-
Vote was 50 to 9.
Rep. Keith Skelton (D-Eu-gene)
said the Game Commis
sion should be combined with
the Fish Commission.
Skelton said the budget for
the Game Commission was up
$2 million or 29 per cent over
a year ago. No general fund
monies are involved as the
Commission gets its money
from license fees on a state
and federal level.
"They don't need this extra
money, they just have it,"
Skelton said.
He said the Fish Commis
sion budget which passed the
House earlier contained a $1.5
million deficit and that if the
two commissions were com
bined, this money could have
been saved.
Rep. Katherine Musa (D
The Dalles) said she thought
license fees should be reduced
rather than giving the Com
mission extra money.
Rep. W. O. Kelsay (D-Rose-burg)
said that much prog-

ress had been made toward
uniting the two Commissions
but that sportsmen were not
quite ready to do it now.
The budget was defended
by Annala, who said that
much of the increase was from
federal funds so that the ac
tual increase in the Game
Commission budget was only
11 per cent - about the aver
age of other budgets being
considered.
A motion to re-refer the
budget back to the Ways and
Means committee failed.
Two- bills raising legisla
tors' salaries from $600 to
$2,100 a year were approved
by the House. One calls for an
immediate increase and the
other refers the issue to the
people.

and sent to the governor.
