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.

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

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-;

Mr. and Mrs. Bod Wallace,

tion with a Thanksgiving trip
and journeyed to California,

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.
