Ashland The life of Play
wright Eugene O'Neill, as toid
In a recent book by Arthur
and Barbara Gelb, was the
subject of Mrs. Elmo N. Ste
venson's book review given
Monday afternoon before
members of Fortnightly Study
club.
Mrs. P. Malcolm Hammond
was hostess for the meeting
which followed a social hour.
Refreshments were served by
Mrs. Herbert Specht and Mrs.
M. P. Dunn.
The famous American dra
matist revolutionized the na
tion's theatre with his brood'
lng philosophical and psycho
logical studies of modern man
winning world recognition
with a Nobel prize and four
Pulitzer awards.
O'Neill, the son of an ec
tor, knew the stage before he
became a seaman, a prospec
tor and a newsman. His bi
zaare personal life is reflected
In his plays. Ever at conflict
with life and those surround
ing him, the playwright made
use of symbols in stage ef
fects, notably the sound of
tom-toms in "Emperor Jones"
and masks in "The Great God
Brown."
. In a less disturbing vein
was the short subject chosen
by Mrs. Herbert Lewis, who
displayed the new World
Book Encyclopedia Diction
ary, just off the press. She
read several selections as
well as excerpts from the gift
book, "Joy of Words," that
pomes to all purchasers.

Tempo of Legislature
And Work Increasing
MARY JANE DELLENBACK
Salem The legislative ac

tempo of our work increases,
too. There is still the strange
sensation of living in two
worlds, and we are plunged
so thoroughly into the one
which exists for us in Salem,
that it is hard to realize that
it has been two years since
we have done inese same
things with some of these

because I can understand so
well the feelings the new leg

have. So niHiiy new terms
whirl around in the air, and
one is hard-pressed to get
theni all sorted out and ex
plained. Bill backs, amending,
bill books, memorials, resolu
tions, and many, many more
things which have a special
legislative meaning that we
gradually come to understand.
Then, too, there are tne
many places In the Capitol

legal and consitutionally ac
ceptable language of many
bills is done, the Stale Li
brary, and many others.
Work Is Hard
I know Joan and Edith are
working hard, because we
spend a good many hours
poumung uic typewriters in
the secretarial typing room
together. They are learning
all the details that I learned
two years ago about setting
up the books which are to
hold Hie 1800 or so bills which
will be introduced Into the
House and Senate. These
books need to be indexed to
allow easy reference to bills,
memorials, joint memorials,
resolutions, joint resolutions
and concurrent resolutions.
There are files to set urj. both
for correspondence from
home and for materials rele
vant to the committees ap
pointed to work on legisla
tion. There are snowfall pro
portions of printed matter on
the desks each day, and the
secretary is responsible lor
finding a logical place to put
it so that it can be found an
other day.
Each state office puts out
an annual or biennial report,
the interim committees ap
pointed at the end of the last
session have made up reports
on their studies and findings,
and there arc lots of misccl
lanrcur reports from various
parts of the state and organi

Girl Scout Troop 102, under
the leadership of Mrs. Ralph
Barclay and assisted by Mrs.

Echo, on Saturday and Sun
day, January 26 and 27.
The girls spent the two
days skating and playing on
the ice-some of the girls had
never been on skates before,
but according to reports, soon
learned how, and were able to
skate. The evening was spent
around the fire of the big
fireplace in the camp lodge.
eating popcorn, banana boats,
and playing games.
Mrs. Barclay stated that to
her knowledge this is the first
troop to stay overnight in the
lodge at Low Echo during the
winter. She reported that
the weather was beautiful,
with sunshine, crisp and cold;
at night the stars in the sky
shone bright as diamonds, and
the frozen lake moaned and
groaned like a huge monster.
The girls were fascinated with
this, and enjoyed laying in
their warm sleeping bags lis
tening to the moans.
It is hoped that more troops
will take advantage of the op
porluuity to try a winter over
night at Low Echo. Girls on
the camp trip were Sandra
Bayliss, Linda Bnyliss. Jill
Hibbs, Karol Konschot, Susan
Cuperna, Julie Barclay, and
Sue Williams.

There were no doubt as many
reasons, almost, in the minds
of the members for voting for
or against that bill as there
were votes. We were all quite
Interested in seeing how the
vole would come out, and I
wouldn't have ventured to
predict in advance, because
amendments added on to an
original hill are likely to
cause a lack of, or addition to
support.

with some of the new mem

Taormino Six days it
rained; on the seventh it
snowed. All is well, good and
fun for us in warm, picture
window houses, but for the
local residents, not accus
tomed to such severity, it
must be a difficult time. In
many of the homes, the only
heat is from brass pans (bra
ziers) on standards, filled with
coke. Shopkeepers leave their
doors open all the days, and
stand rubbing their hands,
which are red with cold.
At the Doney's of Taormina
Macomba Bar, there is a fire
place, a big, rather elegant
one and in it is a fire of mod
erate proportions. As the
room is large, and a big stair
way leading to the second
floor tables, is open, the heat
does not become excessive.
Nevertheless, the loyal out
door patrons all assemble
every day for coffee and
aperatif hours, for making
dates, and for reading the
daily papers.
On Manila Piece
One visitor here said, suc-
cintly I thought, that she felt
as though she were on a man
tlepiece in Taormina; she had
to either go up or down.
Down is to the beach. That
zig-zagging path takes about
half an hour. It is seven hun
dred feet to the bottom. Going
up is sort of like, one might
imagine, going towards infin
ity up and up.
We have favorite aauy
walks. One of them is to
Guardiola Vecchia, where
Goethe sat and eulogized the
beauty. It is believed that it
was here he wrote his lovely
Knowest thou the land
where the lemon trees
bloom." To attempt to cxtoll
this beauty, one of the world's
greatest panaramas, takes a
Goethe, or a Newman, or Ber-
enson. But I will stand aside
for no one in my appreciation
and love of it.
Walk
So we walk up and down.
and into places, one of which
is the cemetery. Whether in
San Salvador, Vienna, Rome
or Genoa, cemeteries have in
dividualities. But this one in
Taormina, has, I will wager,
more practical aspects than
you would find anywhere. It
is classified. A little placard
directs you, as you enter to
"prica classe accommoda
tions, "Secunda classe," and
on through third class. After
that it is simply "Compagna"
(with out status). Pathetic lit
tle mounds of stone are these.
We were unable to find
the placards for the deluxe
class accommodations, al
though luxury class there cer
tainly is, very luxury class.
The location commands the
most spectacular vista of the
sea, and, as good taste would
dictate, off a bit from the
masses. The mausoleums are
well furnished, but we fell a
brasier might not be out of
place on these cold days.
Quite apart from, and sepa
rated by high walls is the
protcstant division. Here we
discovered such homely
names as Jones, Schuler and
Richards. We wondered, as
we wandered, how much God
appreciates this down to earth
practicality.

have not, I would not com

there is artless, fascinating
enchantment. Artists dream
places they could be. They
are flower bedecked steps,
balconies, windows. There
are little Gothic doors, patina
painted walls, old hanging
lamps. There are orange
trees, neat rows of them, load
ed with fruit, and at the same
time, blossoms, Mimosa, in
great trees of foaming yel
low; and jasmine and bougain
villa cascade profusely out
of balcony railings and over
garden walls.
There is beauty for every
sort of person in Taormina;
simple beauty, grand beauty
and archeological beauty.
Nevertheless, it is rather
unique for a popular interna
tional resort; there are no
fancy night clubs, no big
name orchestras, no exciting
restaurants where visitors can
claim to have had some rare
and unusual dish; it is a great
distance to the beach; it is
quiet as a cemetery after
about ten o'clock. It is un
sophisticated and unassuming.
Analyzing it, I can think
only that it is the powerful
appeal of the unadulterated
beauty that is its fascination,
that has been the fascination
since early Romans found and
developed it into a resort for
their leisured class. To say
that it is the most beautiful
spot on earth, though there
are those who do, is extrava
gant. Beauty is relative and
tastes differ.
P.S. I must not give the im
pression that Taormina is not
an up-and-coming place. In
fact the S.P.Q-R. could send
down a delegation to look into
the parking meter situation,
with which Rome is un
acquainted to date. Taormina
has parking meters, one whole
block of them, and it is quite
certain they would have more
