"Democracy is something you do not something you talk about" quoted Mrs. Justin Smith, faculty member at Med ford High school who talked for a dinner meeting Thurs day night of Medford Business and Professional Women's club at North s. The dinner was the closing event of the Medford club's ob servance of National Business Women's week, and honored Miss Gladys Durrand, 1963 Beep of the Week. In her talk themed to the slo gan of the national week, "Re sponsibility of Full Partner ship," Mrs. Smith introduced! two little used words "historic ism" and "relovnnrv" In hot liKtpnnrK Tho tannhof mmtaH ! from Karl Popper's book "The Open Society and Its Enemies" in which he refuted the idea of historicism, the belief that his tory is controlled by specific historical or evolutionary laws whose discovery enables the prophecy of the destiny of man. Put in a simpler form it is "whatever will be will be." Mrs. Smith thinks, with Dr. Popper, that this belief is mere ly an excuse to evade responsi bility as a person and citizen, and as such is dangerous to a democracy. Introduces Words Introducing the word "rele vancy" Mrs. Smith said that the person who fails to take unto himself the responsibility for the acts of his government, his city or community, is failing to become relevant to his situa tion. She also quoted from Edmund Cahn who wrote "The new pre dicament of democratic man is his moral involvement in the misdeeds of government. Rep resentative govern m e n t has made us not only participants, but accomplices, if you will, in the deeds that are done in our name and by our authority." Mrs. Smith added that many citizens have a fuzzy idea about the nature of the democratic state created in this nation, and that we say "government de rives its just power from the ! consent of the governed" but ! that few really believe this. Mrs. Smith explored the idea of anthropomorphism, which is giving human characteristics to things not human. She noted as examples John Bull, Ivan, and Uncle Sam and pointed out that some citizens of these govern ments tend to think that they themselves are in no wav re- not fulfill their share of respon sibility in a democratic society. She added "They do not become relevant," and said "When we get it into our heads that the sovereign state of the United States means us, 'we, the peo- sponsible for the acts of "John I P'e we are well on our way Bull" or "Uncle Sam." She said toward democratic citizenship." that down this road of thinking lies dictators and tyrants and that persons with this idea do and guests and Mrs. Catherine, Guests included a delegation Caldwell introduced guests, who ' from Ashland BPW'C headed by represented several w o men's the president, Mrs. Virginia groups and the speaker. j Westerfield, and Mrs. Alice Ar Miss Durrand liehted a friend-, nold, the Ashland club s nonop ship candle to mark the inter- group event, and thanked her fellow club members for the I honor of being Beep of the Week.
