I Those wiiming transports- tion may tak the bvis at the ' Trailways depot 7:30 p.m. Do you know a (wiman who works unusually hardQfor her church, scout troop or PTA? Does your neighbor unself ishly help with many committees, serve as president of her club and still find -rkne for family and friends? Have you often said of your best friend "she deserves a medal?" If so. why not nominate her for the Medford Jayceettes first ,Tieritorioua award of the year?" TheWvomen of this group are anxiou to honor such a woman at a luncheon May 14, and are asking groups of all sorts to nominate candidates they believe to be deserving. The woroen must be between 20 and 40 years of age. Mrs. Charles Jones and Mrs. Charles Henry are co-chairmen of the project. Potpourri joined In the collective sign of relief which went up from PTA committee chairman and workers last week when the Oregon Congress convention ended, with al most averyone agreeing that it had been managed successfully. Conventions as large as this one require months of plan nine;, Just about the same time the arrangements chairman, Mis. Owen Kunkel and Mrs. Emerson Anderson were be ginning to "dig In" for the final days, Mrs. Anderson broke her ankle In an automobile accident. This brought about a shift of work load and Mrs. Kunkel later said "Maxine had to be the committee brains while I was the legs." Flowers, decorations and favors seem to be an Important part of women's conventions, and this was not neglected here. Mrs. William Tycer made several hundred little candles shaped like miniature pears, each one delicately colored and with a pear blush and wick colored and bent to resemble the fruit stem. These were used for the regional dinners. At the Region six dinner at Kim's (for delegates from Jackson, KJamath and Lake counties), and at the banquet Wednesday night a large decorated PTA cake, made by Mrs, Svlvia Alder. Shadv Cove, was displayed. Because of the elaborate decorations, no PTA official found the courage to cut the confection. At the banquet the long tables held little bouquets of yellow and blue daisies, while the big floral decoration for the table of honor was of blue iris and yellow tulips. Med ford's Mrs. Leigh Gustison, Congress president who was loudly praised for her ability to preside gracefully and efficiently, looked exceptionally pretty as she sat back of the big flower arrangement. She wore a frock of beige lace. At the Region six dinner Tuesday, Mrs. Gustison wore a beige dress of starched chiffon. Best of all the society editor liked the pretty hat she wore opening day it was covered with white flowers. Many voiced praise for the Judgement of the PTA mem ber responsible for arranging the low picket fence and flower decorations for the edge of the large stage. This not only made an attractive sight, but discreetly served as a partial screen for those sitting on stage. Mrs. Gustison's duties not only Included presiding at the main sessions and the banquet, but she also presided for two noon workshop sessions for unit presidents. At the Tuesday noon session, the group discussed how to bring about control of! pornographic literature and pictures sent to young people through the mails, how to keep members interested in working for PTA, the problem of failing interest at the high school level and "how can the PTA bring about more interest in school curriculum? At length one voice asked "what do you think about the room count?" Having written or edited thousands of PTA stories which dutifully recorded which room had been suc cessful in having the largest representation of parents, the w.man's editor was pleased to hear Mrs. Gustison say she believed there must be some better way of bringing parents out for PTA meetings than "puttting Johnny on the spot." Convention delegates left Hedrick school Tuesday night with praise for the talk of Dr. Paul Wright, pastor of First Presbyterian church in Portland. Potpourri agrees with much the pastor said. He tnmKS Americans over-estimate the importance of "giving children everything" the so-called "advantages." With that we agree. We also agree that poverty is not a blessing, but that the lack of luxury confronts the individual with reality and sometimes makes for a stronger citizen. We also heartily agree that "we strive for ridiculous things things which mean nothing." The minister added that we hear about these things through the newspapers, television and radio. He didn't men. ion that Americans also learn about endless valuable, useful, interesting and worthwhile "things" from their news nnners. television and radio stations. Dr. Wright also said Americans have lost their sense of values and should teach their children "real values." But he never listed these "real values," and this writer would have been Interested to have him do so. O.S.
