White House
Includes Elaborate Heating
By ROSE McKEE
Washington - If the young
children of President-Elcct
and Mrs. John F. Kennedy
catch cold, it should not be
because of drafts or chill in
the White House.
The executive mansion now
has the most modern and elab
orate equipment for keeping
all the rooms at an even tem
perature - whether there are
two or 2,000 persons in a
room. Fine, new air condi
tioning equipment provides
the same comfort for torrid
summer days. The new equip
ment was put In during the
Truman administration resto
ration of the White House.
Lorenzo S. Winslow, White
House architect for 19 years
which encompassed the re
building period, said the fam
ily rooms used to have steam
heat and radiators.

Clear Vision Is Needed For Learning
Educator Tells AAUW Members
"One of the most urgent
needs for learning is clear vis
ion," according to Mrs. Max
ine (Paul R.) Smith, immedi
ate past president of Oregon
Education Association.
Quoting H. V. van Dyke;
she continued. " 'The true ob-
lect of education should be
to train one to minK Clear
ly and act right,' " in a talk
to Medford brancn of Amer
ican Association ot univer
sity Women last Wednesday.
Presented In tne nome or
Mrs. Stuart V. McQueen, Mrs.
Smith's speech was titled
Education Washes the Win
dows," and followed the
branch s theme for the year,
Windows to the World." Aft
er graphically aescnoing
American wealth in relation
to the rest of the world, Mrs,
Smith said, "We know as
stated in Luke, 'Everyone to
whom much is given, of him
will much be required.'
"In the coming years and
generations, the faith of man
kind will depend upon the
United Stales, and especially
upon American educators."
Recalls Speech
Mrs. Smith told of a speech
by Charles Malik, then pres
ident of the General Assem
bly of the United Nations,
at the St. Louis convention
of the National Education As
sociation. He said that respect,
equality, humanity, love, and
brotherhood abide at the base
of American life and culture.
It is possible, therefor, to hold
that despite temptation and
Restoration
Were they as ugly as most
old radiators?" he was asked
by an interviewer from the
National Association of Home
Builders.
"Worse," replied Winslow,
a man of few but emphatic
words.
Even in its earliest days, the
While House lacked some con
veniences common to the pe
riod. Mrs. John Adams, the
second First Lady and the
first to live in the White
House, complained of the great
difficulty in keeping fires go
ing In the open grates "to se
cure us' from the daily agues."
She also described the lack
of bells to call servants "to as
sist us in this great castle."
Many Complain
Mrs. Adams wasn't the only
occupant to complain of drafts
and colds. President Andrew
Jackson, referring to one area,
reportedly remarked, "Hell
itself couldn't heat that cor
ner."
Bui now all is snug and
warm in winter. The public
rooms on the ground and first
floors-which are the ones
open to tourists - have sepa
rate healing, ventilating, and
air conditioning systems. They
are designed to provide com
fort for as many as the 2,000
who might go through the big
East room at large receptions.
The family quarters on the
other two floors have their
own, similar equipment. Some
of the heating and air condi
tioning units have ducts large
enough for two men to sit
abreast in them. All the rooms
are warmed by pre-hcalcd air,
and the family rooms have
hot water conveclors as well.
They are concealed in the
walls.
While Mrs. Adams lacked
bells to summon maids, the
Kennedys should have no such
communication problems.
They will find intercom
phones in their rooms.
The White House also has
an elaborate water supply, in
cluding a separate chilled wa
ter system for drinking foun
tains. Carried Water
When John Adams moved
into the White House, water
hud to be carried by hand
from a spring in a park about
six city blocks away. In 1883
a pipe was laid from the park
to the White House to provide
; running water. It was not un
, til 1850 that water was piped
in from the Potomac river.
Winslow said that when
Mr. Kennedy wants to use the
White House elevator, he will
not have to wait - as did Pres
ident Franklin D. Roosevelt
on occasion - for domestic
j employees to disembark from
it, al times carrying linens,
dishes, or olher household ar
ticles. There Is now an ele-
valor for the special Use of
' domestic help.
' Usually, Mr. Roosevelt did
not have to wait, for when he
I lefl his olfice in the West
. Wing to go to the residential
quarters, the Secret Service
: signalled that he was on his
i way, and the elevator was
held. But now and then, Mr.
Roosevelt would have to wail
-or ride with the butler or
other help, which, it is said,
he did not mind doing.
Tourists in Washington long
! have admired the While
house lawns. Many are un
aware thai under a section
of the lawns on the Pennsyl
vania avenue side of the
While House are various
roon such as a carpentry
shop, an electrical repair
difficulty and the dangers of
complacency, ease, and com
fort, America will in the end
communicate with and win
the heart and mind of the
East.
Ways in which our schools
are already promoting better
understanding of the world
including stimulating interest
in international relations,
learning to enjoy artistic dif
ferences, and learning to com
municate, were described by
Mrs. Smith. She also told how
parents and other citizens can
help.
Concrete Meaning
"We who know that all
over the world peoples are
striving for a new and full
cr meaning of life, we must
accept this most important
challenge to give concrete
meaning to the! idea of neigh-
borliness. Physically we have
spanned time and space with
jet planes. Let us all decide
that we must help develop
the minds of men so that un
derstanding, mutual respect
and wisdom of action will also
build bridges so that neigh
bors may communicate and
work together throughout the
world," Mrs. Smith concluded.
Assisting the hostess at the
meeting were Mrs. Thomas
McCamant, Mrs. S. C. Jones
Jr., Mrs. Samuel Poirier, and
Mrs. Ralph A. Wiese.

New Sheer Wools Described
For Spring; Yellow Popular
Los Angeles - New wool
fabrics for spring and summer
are said to be so sheer that
the industry is calling them
"nude wools."
Some of the new fabrics
are wool voiles, some are leno
weaves-meshy and perhaps
with a drop-stitch effect-others
are spongy and may ap
pear a little heavier llian they
are, still others arc lacy and
lofly. An entire dress may
weigh less than a pound since
the fabric weights range from
around four ounces per yard
in 3li-inch widths to six in
54-Inch widths. Among pat
terned sheers are minute
houndstooth checks, clear,
open checks, small window
panes, small bias plaids and
others.
The new woolen fabrics arc
said to be practical; comfort
able on a cool day with jacket,
stole or coat, and equally so
on a very warm day without.
The natural absorbency of
wool makes them especially
well liked for warm weather
wear as does Its built-in wrin
kle reslstcnce.
Yellow Popular
Color is outstanding in Hie
sheer wool dresses with sun
ny yellows one of the favor
ites. Strawberry pinks, clear
periwinkle blue, lilac to vio
let, shrimp pink to coral and
orange, turquoise, Irish
greens, navy and black are
all available. While alone or
combined with color is most
important, as is pale beige,
champagne, straw and other
neutrals. The patterned fab
rics are often in a color with
white, as black and while, yel
low and while, liac and white,
etc.
Dress styles tend to be sim
ple and "ladylike." with soft,
fluid lines predominating.!
There's more than a hint of
Influence from the 30s and
those familiar with the 20s
may also breathe a nostalgic
sigh over some of tlie fashions.

past, some of thQstnragc area
was usen on occasion as a tern-
nounced that Southern Ore-
gon college players, directed
by Dr. Dorothy Stolp, will

February 7. Proceeds from it
goes toward the fellowship
fund.

Careers
In Coloring
Increasing
Chicago - IUPD - Women with
an eye for color can make
it pay up to $15,000 a year,
according to Mrs. Betty Scho
enberg, national color coor
dinator of a large mail order
house s (Sears Roebuck & Co.)
home furnishings lines.
Mrs. Schoenberg's job is to
advise her company on what
colors to feature in upholstery,
rugs, draperies and accesso
ries. To do this, she must
keep abreast of the changing
tastes of homemakers, yet be
able to recognize a color trend
from a fad.
In Mrs. Schoenberg's case,
this ability stems from a nat
ural talent for choosing pleas
ing combinations of colors,
plus both a college and pro
fessional education in art,
architecture and the theories
of color. She called a natural
sense of color even more im
portant than education in its
use.
You have to be able to
judge color the way the home-
maker does, with her eyes,
Mrs. Schoenberg said.
Job's Increase
According to Mrs. Schoen
berg, there is an increasing
number of jobs in her field,
and women as well as men
can get such jobs with furni
ture manufacturers, fabric
and rug mills.
But many of the oppor
tunities in this field have to
be made," she said. She sug
gested becoming an interior
decorator as a start.
'After a decorating course
a home economics college
or professional art school, go
to work in a department
store," Mrs. Schoenberg ad
vised. She began her career
arranging table settings in a
Chicago department store.
She suggested making the
break from interior decorat
ing into color coordinating by
taking a job with a manufac
turer of furniture, fabrics or
carpels.
"You may be hired to ar
range showrooms," she said.
"But keep coming up with
sound advice on color and
the manufacturer may recog
nize tlie need for a color co
ordinator." sashes, apron effects, fitted
hip-yokes with bloused tops
and skirts straight or full, are
included. More pleats than in
many a season will be seen,
ranging trom impressed or
simple knife pleats to double
knife or box types, also some
of the loved sunburst pleats
of an earlier period. Ease in
skirls is very important.
even in slim skirls, achieved
through various gathers,
folds and the like.
New Necklines
Necklines, often collarless,
offer a wide range of oppor
tunities for removable scarves,
stoics, ascots and cowl drapes
to be manipulated to the taste
of tlie wearer. Standing bands
cuffs, sailor and other collar
types are also important
In costumes the jackets are
most often short, seldom long
er than hipbone, and loose,
with sleeves unmounted or
mounted low on the shoulder,
Some dresses have their own
fingertip to full length coats,
straight or swinging, light in
weight and loose in fit. Some
are of the same wool as the
dress, others are combined
with somewhat heavier wool
ens, perhaps with a frosting
of mohair, or a lightly brush
ed fleece, a meshy basket
weave. Some are paired with
Chanel type jackets, some
with capelets or capclet ef
fects. Newsiest are those that
combine contrasting or tone-on-lone
rather than matching
colors, such as bright pink
touched with orange, or prim
rose wilh green.
