Delta Kappa Gamma is an honor society for women in education. Miss Mayor said that rapid changes had come to the Unit ed Stales, and to education, but that education has not made as many gains as it should have. She spoke of the severe criticism of teachers due to our American system of education which is sub jected to continuous evalua tion and which uses compari son as a measuring guide, a wrong measuring standard, she believes. Success of edu cation should be the aim for all, Miss Mayor said. Trends of changes in socie ty that she mentioned were that truth is becoming "modi fied." honesty is "if" it pays to be honest; the increase in mental disturbance; less re fined living and lowering of lastes; lack of keen judg ment; and the letting down of higli quality living that once was the solid lie of society. She stated that standards need open channels of communica tion. In her talk Miss Mayor placed emphasis on higher ideals of women, and said, "Work is lhe key to happi ness. Welcome the task that makes us go beyond our selves. Command the wide fields but cultivate the small ones." In the business meeting members were urged to read the voters pamphlet and lo vote no on the reorganiza tion bill which would do away with school organization which has taken years to build. Guests included Miss Fran cis Harvey, formerly of Pen dleton and now with the Jo sephine County Extension of fice; Mrs. Audrey Wingfiekl, a transfer from Fairbanks, Alaska and a teacher at Jew ell school, Central Point; and i Mrs. Una B. Inch, Medford. honorary member of Epsilon chapter. Other slate officers present were Mrs. Alice Ottis, Grants Pass, slate firsl vice presi dent, and Mrs. Jennie Cal houn, Grants Pass, state treas urer.
