Each member, of a family has one stamp. 18, interchangeable among members of the family living in the same household.

GOOD SHOES JUNE 6 iw.- nii W ' - , K o Application of Natural Laws to World Problems Suggested to Rotarians "Human Values In Nature as Represented at Crater Lake," is the title of a paper by Doris Palmer Payne, Klamath history Ian and research specialist, rend to the Rotary club at Friday noon's luncheon. , Tho . paper, suggesting the application of demonstrated natural laws .-to both individual affairs and world problems of sweeping import ance, has been accepted for pub lication in the- magazine "The Living Wilderness." . Contemplation of natural truths such as are presented both by the history and present cir cumstances of Crater lako, Mrs. Payne said, will show the way to human- relationships which will make this a happier world. ... Eyes on Hull "Just as long ago the Psalmist said. 'I will lift up my eyes, un to the hills from whence cometh my help,' so in tho present criti cal period, we, too, lift our eyes toward the hills and find, they do not fail us.- On the contrary, we discover that through modern science nature reveals the ways of the Creator In a manner clearer than at any earlier time,"-she said. ' 'Through respect for the laws of nature, we may avoid the fu tility of trying , to break them knowing that we will only break ourselves against them." To live In accord with these laws and to learn to use them for the greater benefit of mankind is to march forward on the path 'of progress, both as persons and as peoples: to Ignore them may be suicidal." Lake s Formation Mrs. Payne outlined the extra ordinary story of Crater lake's formation as reconstructed by Dr. Howel Williams, University of California geologist, showing how, in a climatic volcanic erup tion, support was withdrawn from beneath the snowy summit of Mt. Mazama, causing its en gulfment and forming an abyss. Moisture from snow and rain then gradually accumulated in the cauldron. "It may be difficult," said the speaker, "for some persons to be lieve that there is anything de pendable or orderly about a vol cano, yet the story of Crater lake undeniably indicates the truth of this statement. Witness the fact that the laws of nature, operat ing in the formation of Mount Mazama, produced results Iden mssSk Mm. tical with ' those ' we see In vol canoes erupting, under similar conditions today, onaming ua to toll, as if It were yesterday, what happened in that distant age. Nor Is this an Isolatod instanco of the dependability ..of 'natural law Rather, tit .is. a striking- Illustra-J tlon of the orderliness of forces which lie behind every super ficial feature of-change, wheth er past, present or future, and determine its character.- To be come aware of the continuity of events leading to formation of crater lake results almost Inevit ably in a readjustment of our timo porspectlvo and a clearer -vision of the manner in which de velopment takes place through processes of change. ... . Mutual Adjustment : ' ."Hero at Crater lake is illus trated also a perfect mutual ad justment of complex phases of nature to one another, each con tributing its share to the har monious whole; each thereby bearing witness to the oneness of all natural elements through all time. . . Thia concept ap propriately has been called the unity of nature." Mrs. Payne went on to say that - "the Importance of the broader perspective of time formed through observation of naturo can be realized best by contrasting it with our usual at titude, in which we tend to refer all events in the world to our selves; in which our temporary unit is the span of our own lives. On the other, hand, the view in spired by nature prompts us to see our own and all human ac tivity as related to the moving field of time represented by tho universe. . . . Without proper fo cus and understanding with re gard to time, accurate analysis of tho significance and trend of events . . . becomes a matter of chance with the odds against us. On the other hand, a realistic at titude toward time and its assoc iated train of events helps make possible the orderly application of logic and reason to situations otherwise appearing hopelessly complex." .1'.; ; ... Nature's Influence The influence exerted by full recognition of the inherent unity of nature is probably most sig nificant of all, the speaker said. Pointing out that widespread ne gation of this principle in inter national affairs has permitted JOB "FREEZE" MAKES CHANGE TRAINING -Now types of courses are now being given at the vocation school - held at' the high school training shops. Whereas in tho past the program has been to train men for tho shipyards or aircraft industry, the purposo of the new training will be to help the man that has been frozen on the Job, and the vari ous companies that wish to take advantage of this training. Supplementary training is to be given in welding, machine shop and general sheet metal. The vocational school . believes that there are a great many ad vantages for local people in this fliinnlAmnntnrv tralnltltf. Men or women may eflroll at the sc hero 1 for two or three nights per week In any of the classes. Anyone Interested may come to tho high school train ing shops or call 7S9S for fur ther Information concerning hours and classes. the advance of aggressive pow ers, she said: "If tho people of each threat ened nation had believed that what affects one affects all, and the political corollary that what affects tho rights of one affects the rights of all, their leaders would have been empowered to unite to subdue the aggressors when their Intention was first revealed." .
