MtKUU AINU INtWS, KLAMA I M hALLb. OKtoON MUNUAY, MAY 3, IV48 SOCIETY By LOIS STEWART Bend Conference Of Sorootimists By LORRAINE JOHNSON , The first Impression one received upon arrival In Bend for the Soroptlmlst Northwest Regional conference was the friendliness and hospitality and the atmosphere of welcome from the entire town. It was expressed In the friendly welcome of the motor court proprietor, by the "Welcome Soroptimists" signs painted on the shop windows, to the warm greetings from the members of the Bend Soroptlmlst club who greeted us when we registered at the Pilot Butt Inn. There were Soroptimists from the entire Northwest Including Alaska, and young and enthusiastic Ventunsts who were greeted by our own Venture club girls as host- esses. The business sessions were long, with our own delegates, Doris Pey ton and Rita Whisenant. working like Trojans taking notes and trying to absorb all of the Important reso lutions and amendments to pass on to their club to help us with the coming months. The Friday night Informal dinner provided an opportunity to become better acquainted with that par ticular woman or women whose abilities and dynamic personalities we had been admiring all afternoon. It made this particular Soroptlmist feel like small potatoes to come In contact with women of such charm and accomplishment. At the Friday evening session we heard 5-mlnute reports from all the clubs In the region with our own president, Mickey Henry, doing such a beautiful Job of reporting for Central Oregon. Up early Saturday. Was unable to attend the meeting with the dele gates because the table had to be made ready for the luncheon where we. the Klamath Falls Soroptimist club, were hostesses. There were favors for all and the color scheme was red, white and blue. However, Pete, the Pelican, dominated the decoration scheme. He had quite a time keeping his dignity in com petition with Bend s beautiful swans. We expected feathers to be flying any minute. Louise Reinhart drove up especially to decorate the head table complete with electric foun tain and red, white and blue flowers which carried out the patriotic theme of the luncheon. Olive Cornett made a charming toastmlstress and no one envied her job of having to keep 250 hungry, talkative women mho had Just spent a long, tiring morning at a business session. In order. Baked potatoes were served, each proudly bearing a paper potato on a toothpick pro nouncing them to be Klamath Gems. In order to pacify the shocked Bend citizens and the hotel chef. Olive coolly announced with all the diplo macy of an ambassador to the court of St. James, that although the propaganda said differently, we' were actually eating Deschutes county potatoes instead of Klamath because agricultural regulations pre vented our bringing our own. Doris Peyton thrilled us by her Inspiring invocation. Muriel Garich's lovely voice made us all dreamy-eyed. Her accom panist. Marie Obenchain. generously gave her time to come up especially for the occasion. Rose Poole was guest speaker and her topic carried the conference theme, "Our House in Order" from the legislative angle. Her talk was very impressive and straightforward. She brought out one point that made us feel so proud that she was one of our members. Several guest musicians added much in making the evening a great success. The Sunday breakfast, given by the Lakeview and Burns clubs made a perfect ending to a successful conference. We were all feeling quite disgruntled because of the early hour. When we arrived at the hotel we were immediately snapped out of it by the whoops and yippees that greeted us from the Lakeview and Burns girls all decked out in costumes ranging from the swank sheriff's posse garb, jeans and boots of range riders to black hats, pistols and bandanas of stagecoach robbers. Their theme was "Life on the Range" and It was carried out with table decorations and favors, and atmospherically by a trio of cow boys playing and singing western songs. Their mistress of ceremonies was Lakeview club's president, Erma Clause, who kept things lively every moment. Although most of us were accustomed to only orange Juice and coffee for breakfast, everyone tore into a chuck-wagon breakfast of steak, fried potatoes and coffee. Alter a rollicking good time, we all settled down to more serious matters when the address "Our House in Order. Spiritually," was given by Anne Sprague of the Lake view club who Is the Lakeview superintendent of schools. Her talk was very inspirational and she urged each to use all his talents and influence on the many prob lems facing us both at home and abroad, and to have faith in God, in our principles and in ourselves. The final meeting of the con ference was conducted by the out going regional director. Claire Nich ols, who introduced the new direc tor for the next two years, Alice Jones of Portland. The final message was given by Lois Beil Sandall, immediate past president of the American Federa tion who chose as her subject. "Our House In Order World Wide." She told how important It is for organizations such as ours to par ticipate in the fullest extent in world wide activities and to keep informed of world events. Her talk was very forceful and made one realize she knew her subject well. This next month she will be sitting in conference at UNESCO, where she has been invited to take part as an expert consultant in domestic relations. Women Voters Mrs. A. B.
