Mr. and Mrs. Ed Milne were entertaining the employees of their business. Quality Market, at a holiday dinner party at North's Chuck Wagon. About 10 p.m. one of the em ployees. Roy Watson, was struck with a wonderful idea wouldn t it be just great to put through a long distance telephone call to Germany, where the Milne's son. John, is serving with the Third Armored division, so the three could have a surprise conversation. lie confided the idea to another employee, Loyd Huston, who agreed that it was indeed a positive inspiration. The two men left the private dining room where the party was under way, .sought out a waitress and asked permission to put through the call. Their excitement communicated itself, and the waitress agreed. One of the men had all the information needed the soldier's name, exact location, etc., and the call was put through. Luck was with the two conspirators, and in what seemed practically no time at all in reality only abnut 15 or 20 minutes. John Milne, in Glenhausen, Germany, was talking with his parents half-way around the world in Medford. Ore. It was about 7 a.m. Sunday morning in Glenhausen. and John was just starting the day. Since the whole scheme had been a spur of the moment deal, the Milnes afterwards weren't quite sure what they had said to their son, or what he had replied. Mrs. Milne did remember one part ot the conversation - John had just returned to his base after having been on a field trip. The trip had been a joint endeavor of certain sections of the U.S. and German armies and John said the weather was terribly i-nld and he was glad to be back in Glenhausen. which is near Frankfort John, a specialist fourth class in the division, was 21 years old last month. This will he the fourth Christmas that the young soldier has not hern home lor Christmas, and he was mighty glad to hear his parents' voices. "It was the most wonderful Christmas present we could have had." Mrs. M. declared to Potpourri earlier this week. The Mtlnes have a daughter, Mary, a student at Lewis and Clark college In Portland and they are happy that she will be home for the holidavs. I The telephone, radio, television all the other wonders of modern science have been with us quite a while and should he commonplace by now. Rut to this small town female, it is still something of a miracle that wires and I little containers and some mysterious element in the atmos phere will enable a parent in hear the voue of a beloved ! son or daughter thousands of miles away, or tlint a scene originating in one city ran he recreated in another spot across continents The time will probably come when not only the voice, hut the human form itself, may he trans- ported great distances without mechanical contrh ances. It is our firm belief that the capabilities of the mind and spirit are now only partially realized and utilired. One Dr. Jules Golden of Albany Medical college in New ; York headed a team of researchers who made a psychiatric! study of the so-called "normal w hite male " The researchers : ' decided that the average American man is happy with his ; wife, and almost as happy about his )olv But ihey also found j ( that "his personality isn't stimulating, his interests ?nd pleasures are narrow, his amibitions comparatively low and lhat he lacks creativity." Well, some men and women hae lofty ambitions anil are creative as witness what has been done by painters. poets, scientists, Inventors, philosphrrs. etc. There just aren't enough creative minds and souls, and too many of the I "normal white males" and females, that Pr. Jules Golden j and his team studied. And we still behexe that whoever can discover a rela-; . lively quick and easy way of dispersing fog such as that .nauseous stuff which hunt over the Rogue valley in recent! ;davs will be doing mankind a gieater favor than discovering! ! new ways to bring death and destruction.
