And remember, as the main attraction next 'season, that super-quartet composed of Nino Martini, Igor Gorln, St. Valentine s Day s The question of the day on February fourteenth will still be, "Will You Be My Valentine?" The first thing the American miss looks for on Valentine's Day is a missive from the man in her life. She differs from her sister of the 1500's or 1600's in Merrie England who probably slept late that morning if she were the timid sort. For there was a general belief that the first male person the young damsel sow on St. Valentine's Day was slated to be her suitor! But she looked forward, too, to receiving Valen tines only hers came in through an open window, (left open purposely, of course, on St. Valentine's eve), attached to an apple or pear. Since Valentines were always anonymous, a question would arise as to just which young gallant was posing the question, "Will You Be My Valen tine?" And since the sending of Valentines was considered practically a proposal of marriage, it was really quite a problem. Times have changed and Valentines now travel on a two-way route. Sentiment runs high when young love is- separated by war, and the boys in Uncle Sam's service, particularly, are sure to get their shore of reassurances of affection tomorrow. For example: "Maybe you're only a PRIVATE to Uncle Sam- But you're of more than GENERAL interest to me! - din PRETTY AS A PICTURE on a Valentins is Elizabeth Shaw, five-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Shaw of 1930 Lowell street.

Dr. Morris Speaks , At Dinner Session Post War Problems Discussed by Dean From University of Oregon Saturday Post war problems were discussed by Dr. Victor P. Mor ris, dean of the school of business administration of the Uni versity of Oregon before a crowd of over one hundred persons gathered at Willord Hotel Saturday evening, February sixth. The dinner was sponsored by three women's organizations of this city, the Business and Professional Women, League of Women Voters and American Association of University Women. Dr. Morris, representing the committee for the organiza tion of peace, pointed out that the Intelligent study of post war problems by groups such 1 as represented at this meeting would provide a potential wea pon for winning the war as well as provide a background for establishing a workable peace plan. Especially would such plans be helpful in win ning of the people of con quered countries and colonial possessions. The speaker divided the postwar problems into three fields. The first question was how the allied nations are to deal with bitter hatreds . that have been growing in Europe and Asia. The second was the establishment of an ade quate police force until the various territories would learn to govern themselves. Most important was the economic problem brought about by the many divisions within' Eu rope. Dr. Morris pointed out that no static plan could be work ed out but that there would have to be continual plan ning, experimentations and revision of plans over a long period. Mrs. D O. Miller, president of the American. Association of University Women presided over the meeting. Mrs. Miller introduced the presidents of the two cooperating organiza tions. Miss Lillie Darby, of the Business and Professional Women's club, and Mrs. Ev erett Dennis of the League of Women Voters. Mrs. Paul Buck introduced the speaker of the evening. MRS.
