6 A Social Events Women's News Traveler Gives Rules For Enjoying Caribbean Cruise By GAY PAULEY UPI Women'! Editor St. Thomas, Virgin Islands IUPI) - If a cruise to a sunnier climate is a wintertime way of life for you, then read no further. You need no guid ance. But if you're like me either on, or p 1 a n ning the first ship trip of any distance, Cay Pauley slick around, mates. There are some rules to this business of enjoying what the travel folders call I "an incomparable vacation - under the sun." , The ocean liner "Bremen" and I have been headed for three days now into the Carlb- bean Sea and my list of "do's" and "don't' for a vacation cruise already is as long as the dining room menu. But here are the major ones. -Do brush up on your sea manship, so that you won't be at sea when someone mentions a hatch, hold or hawser. Do call the stairs ladders, and speak of port Instead of left, or starboard Instead of right, You're in a cabin or state room, not a room, and they laughed when one woman said she was "going for a swim in the pool in the base ment" when she meant the pool on the lower deck. Little Time to Rest -Do plan to rest and bring some books you've been plan ning to read. Don't expect either to rest or to read. You'll find that the exper ienced cruiser realizes she may sleep until noon if she wishes. But if you are a no vice, trying to keep up with all the activities on a ship's daily schedule, you'll be lucky to squeeze in an afternoon nap in your room . . , er, cabin. -Do remember to take the informal clothes you would . wear If you were having tea or buffet in your own back - yard in the summer. Don't ' assume that' wild skirts, crazy hats and bikini suits are stand ard shipboard attire. Your good taste in clothes combina tions should apply to ship as well as shore. : -Do lose at least five pounds before you board ship, if you tend to add pounds. If you're naturally thin,' though, count your blessings as you eat bliss fully through the voyage. 'ft MANN'S PRESENTS . . .

FEBRUARY 16. 1961 Otherwise, just let your clothes out one size before you embark, and leave the grim business of cottage cheese, yo ghurt and metrecal unlil you're home again. -Do be friendly. Almost everyone in a cruise wants to exchange names, home towns and occupations. But don't be a bore. There are those who never cease talking about, "Well, when I was on my last cruise into the Caribbean, we did . . ." Share With Others -Do remember your man ners along with your money of how much the cruise costs. You're one of 300, 400 or 500 people tossed together for the next two, throe or four weeks. Don't assume that since you've paid a chunk of your annual income for a deck chair that you're entitled to use someone else's just because it is unoc cupied and has a more favor able position in the sun. -Do try to visit every port of call, and remember you're a guest in the house, so to speak. No matter what part of the world you're traveling you'll, find the way of life hardly is the same as the one in your home town. But see ing and appreciating the dif ferences are the major reasons you're a tourist. Gerald Law rence, the shore excursion manager on this cruise, is try ing to forget the passenger who stumbled ashore and turned to say, "Now tell me, Gerry, what country are we in, anyway?" And do bring more money than you originally budgeted for your trip. Your ship's fare does not cover such "in cidentals" as side trips ashore, souvenirs and gifts. But don't shop as if there were no to morrow. The next port may be two days away, but the bargains will wait.

Trovel Fabrics, Pesonte, Pure Silk in Solids and Prints PH. MEDFORD MAIL According to the calendar and the weather bureau, it's still winter. But the gardeners know it's almost spring. The yellow jasmine is in full bloom, the little white and yellow violets are beginning to bloom (we don't have any purple ones out yet) and in some gardens we've seen daffodils and crocus. A few nights ago we heard the spring frogs croaking and yesterday, in spite of the gusts of rain, the birds were singing like mad. And there was the most indisputable proof of all. An ant a lone, lively little ant was running around on of all places the ironing board. The blossoms tell the gardener it's almost spring, but it's the ants that warns the housewife. Although she isn't photographed as much as the First Lady of the United States, the First Lady of Oregon is equally photogenic. Proof of this is to be found in the current issue of Glamour magazine, which devoted four pages to Mrs. Mark Hatfield. Mrs. Hatfield's brunette color ing and dark hair are wonderful for color photography the magazine writer described her as a "pink-and-white skinned brunette with huge brown eyes, a dazzling smile." Glamour's February issue is devoted to spring fashions, and the article about Mrs. Hatfield accents her wardrobe for both official and unofficial life. The governor's wife told the magazine writer that she must have a wardrobe which is discreet without being dull, which is suitable for her home life, for "being seen" in Oregon's capital, for attending official functions band, and for travel. Last year, for instance, the Hatfields went to South America to attend a governors conference. She finds the "quiet side" color, can wear almost any chooses clothing with "gentle" lines. She is pictured wearing a three-piece classic suit with cardigan jacket, a green wool suit with printed blouse, a navy blue Jacquard cotton shirtwaist with multi-strand pearls, and a knit sweater and skirt with striped detail. According to the magazine, she dresses at home in a manner which permits her to meet visitors at any time. She likes shirtwaist dresses, and wears the kind of shoes which call for stockings. She uses both real and costume jewelry to accent her dresses and suits; her favorite piece of jewelry is a marcasite elephant which her Republican husband bought for her in Paris. The article strengthens the opinion we hear on all sides Antoinette Hatfield is beautiful, charming and intelligent a First Lady of whom Oregon Since last Sunday was Lincoln's birthday anniversary, we should have had these quotations in the issue of that date. But in the week end rush we forgot about them. Abraham Lincoln is often ments are among the most of them are: You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help strong men by tearing down big men. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encourag ing class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. You cannot keep out ot trouble by spending more than you earn. You cannot build character and courage by taking away a man's initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves. Abraham Lincoln also wrote something ' which is less quoted, but most interesting. In August, 1855, he wrote in a letter to Joshua F. Speed: Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men arc created equal except Negroes." When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal except Negroes and foreigners and Catholics." When it comes to this, I shall prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy."
