Jjb i,i U " 4V IVAI'OKAII" m f People are funny, these same people keep telling one another. Not amusing, you understand, but strange. A pair of substantial, brown oxfords proves this old saying. Mon day night we went to the doctor's office and had the trap pings on our injured foot removed. Considerable of a relief it was. too. In the course of instructing us in the next phase of recuperation, the doctor Inquired if we had any flat, sub stantial shoes. Hearing that we, had a pair of Girl Scout oxfords he said "Good, will you wear them for the .next week or two?" Anxious that everything should go well with lnL menaing or xne uone, i-oipourri instantly agreed, "thats e. no saiu. ; Most women wen, jjr. a., now we Know wny tney aon t. When we wear a plain skirt, blouse, cardigan and a pair of conservative low-heeled black pumps, no one gives us a second look. But when we stepped out of the elevator Tues- day morning, wearing a plain orown oxtorcis, mere was as mucn comment, as it we d been barefooted. The comments still continue. We've been pondering"over this social phenomenon ever since. The dictates of fashion and custom are pretty strong, there's no doubt about that. Psychologists and psychiatrists can expound for hours about how much importance humans put on being adequately attired, and in a fashion not to make oneself conspicuous. However, we're in good company. Anthony Armstrong Jones and his' beautiful wife, Princess Margaret, went to a formal ball the other night. Mr. Armstrong-Jones' wore in formal dinner clothes and a black tie. He was the only man to do' so every other male at the fashionable event was dressed in the conventional "white tie and tails." As a consequence, Mr. Anthony Armstrong-Jones got written up in the papers. 51 One of our pet soap box subjects is the fact that we of the United Slates aren't accomplished enough in tiie use of our own English language, or in foreign languages. Jacob Ornstein, a language specialist on the staff of the Department of Agriculture's Graduate school in Washington. Generation Dr. Ornstein, like many others, believes that one reason this nation appears to be hilling behind in power and prcs lijjc particularly tire latter, is because there aren't enough diplomats, technicians, Army and Navy officers and other governmental reprcsonatives who are skilled in languages. This is particularly true of the Eastern languages, he believes. "How do we stack up in the war of words?" he asked. "It must be admitted that we are outclassed when it comes to employing the ordnance of foreign idioms. Underpre pared in the common West European tongues, we are at a far greater loss when it comes to the Eastern languages. The magnitude of the linguistic communication problem can be full grasped only when one considers the multiplicity of tongues spoken on the globe. "Whether we like it or not, the world today is a far more formidable Tower of Babel than it was during the days of the Old Testament. There are some 3,000 languages in the world, and their number is increasing steadily. New nationalisms continue to elevate dialects to full official status. Since the end of the last war, a great number of sovereign states have been born. Compounding the difficulties caused by the multiplicity of idioms is the problem of illiteracy. It is seldom realized that fully half of the world's population can neither read or write. This means that com munication with these people is possible only through the spoke idiom, precisely the area in which America is the weakest.' " Watching films of the mob scenes in New Orleans brought about by the efforts to integrate the public schools we won dered if the parent-teacher associations in Louisiana have a different set of standards and aims than those in Oregon. A few years ago an earnest Medford PTA worker explained to us that the main desire of PTA members could be put in these words: "We work to promote conditions under which every child may have the education that we want for our own children." O.S. University Women Set Date For Benefit Card Party A public dessert card party for both men and women is tiie December project of Med ford branch of American As sociation of University Wom en, Sot for 7:'.!0 p.m. Wednes day. December 7. in the Red Cross building, the Christmas I party is to raise funds to meet Dinners Given In Murphy For Thanksgiving Murphy-Thanksgiving, with ' its memories of family parties' in the past, seems to fill everyone with the urge either to entertain family or friends, or travel to the homes of is tant relations for the tradi tional holiday dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Hughes Murphy Stage road; lincl as guests Thanksgiving day 'heir son. Mack, his wife and theiu baby son, David, from Cali fornia. The Hughes' other sou, Andrew, came from Nevada with his fiancee, Miss JoAnne Mortimer. These, with the Hughes' daughter. Joan, made the family complete for the holiday. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Cham berlain, Fish Hatchery road, had a two-day holiday visit with Mr Chamberhiin's par ents in lledding. Calif. They made the trip with their three daughters. ' Pamela. Angela, and Jean Ann. and t'leir lipuso guest. Franca Margini. the exchange student from Italy who is spending the year with them. Koad conditions took a little of the pleasure out of the trip and, in the words of Mrs. Chamberlain, they "blew down and slid back." Mrs. Cecil Maphet. Murphy, waited until she had had Thanksgiving dinner with her son and daughter-in-law and their children, the Max M:t phets. her hush;md. Cecil, and daughter. Cecilia, and then left tor California Friday evening by bus for a visit with her sister and purents. Mrs. Maphet is postmistros-; at Murphy. Mr. and Mrs. Bod Wallace, with their children.

Ileservations for the party may be made with Mrs. Ar thur S. Anderson, SPring 3-(ilil3, or Mrs. William Mc Laren, SPring 3-425!). A purpose of AAUW. found ed in 1882. is to develop a program to enable college women to continue their own intellectual growth, to further the advancement of women, and to discharge the special responsibilities to society of those who have enjoyed the advantages of higher educa tion. Medford branch AAUW ac tivities include participation in state-wide studies, which last year were on school fi nances' and employment prac tices affecting older workers. The branch provides the framework for study groups in which all women of the community are invited to par ticipate. Eight study groups are active this year. Qualified women of the community are supported for 'important posts in the state, and tile local group helps the national organization formu late its legislative program. Proceeds from an annual children's play are used to provide a fellowship for a gifted woman scholar. Last year's play was 'Sleeping Beauty," put on by the drama department of Southern Ore gon college. vl lew Christmas Cookie kecipes If!
