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! -

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.
