"The power of the press!" After reading Potpourri's ac count ot, her trip up the Mc Kenzio highway, husband and I suddenly decided to "copy cat",'' and we took off the very next morning. One ob-i jective was to shake a bad respiratory cold, which neces sitated very short drives and very long, restful stop-ovors-(the cold got well "shaken", thank you kindly)-but the big extra dividends were the flowers, described by Pot pourri with the rhododendron and, farther up, the dog wood easily the reigning queens the lush green everywhere; the whlle-watpr river. We enjoyed the many miles of river bank with appropri ate development - none of the blatant, honky-tonk commer cialism wc so deplore. Wonder how they managed It? Well do I know of tho long strug gle, not always entirely suc cessful, to protect our Rogue i river from that sj - called "progress." We went around the big circle route, taking the new No. 126 through the National forest and the Santiam pass. Every lake and recreation urea was as thick with camp ers and picnickers as starlings on the caves of big city build ings. 'Twas the first week end of lake fishing,' wo learned, and four out of every five cars on the road had boats on top or attached behind. Oh, the gorgeous snow capped mountains gleaming In the clear, unpolluted air! We saw Jefferson, Three Sisters, Three Fingered Jack, Bachelor Butte, Mt. Thlelsen, Ml. Scott, Ml. Pitt (McLoughlln) and even the peak of Mt. Shasta We saw 8 or 10 deer and one bobcat; and th. jsands and thousands of lilacs around Bcnoand Klamath Falls. How I love them!

However, wc even have a distinguished College president emeritus -Dr. Thomas W. MucQuarrie. A Canadian by blrlli, he be came a citizen when his par ents were naturalized;? he is U. S. educated and holds three degrees from Stanford univer sity; he taught in several insti tutions and operated his own private school for boys until he entered the service in World War I, In which he served full time as a major in the infantry. For the last 25 years of his career, he served as president of San Jose State college, California. During Dr. Mac- ! Quarric'a presidency the col lege became a Litx-ml Arts institution, granting dcRrccs in B2 different fields. When he retired it hud grown lo over 17.0(10 students and a fatuity of 1,000. This Is nnt surprising when I learned from former faculty and students that Dr. Mac Quarrle could out-do Carnegie In "making friends and In fluencing people," Including I California legislators. Also, that no matter how solemn the occasion or discussion, he always had the appropriate funny story or humorous re mark, leaving everyone with no doubt of his meaning or I firmness, but sending them away with uplifted spirit and a willingness to cooperate. Un doubtedly, the gods hand down no greater gift than a sense of humor - thi light touch, the ability to handle a serious situation without a "stern and rock-bound" mien. Dr. MacQuarrie devised and launched special tests for de termining mechanical aptitude which have been widely adapted - nationally and in ternationally, lie admits to being listed In "Who'- Who, but insists with a twinkle that Is an automatic prerequisite of the cnllrgc president Job. The Doctor and his hand some, charming wife live just across the corridor from us, and arc delightful and inter esting neighbors. He has served on our Council and willingly participates in Man or activities lo the fullest ex tent that his health will per mit. t Continuing this next time, i should like to write of other Manor members connected with this college. Seemingly, on a typewriter, I'm much loo 1 garrulous, and I've run right , out of column spare. Bethel Honors Two Members; Ceremony Set At the farewell meeting for Miss Cathleen Harsh, retir iing honored queen of Bethel 38, International Order of Job's Daughters, both Miss Rcna Offutt and Miss Pamela Burgoyne were named "out standing girls of the year."
