MAIN STREET IS STILL AN ADVENTURE to Charlotte C. Carmichael, native of "our
own town," born near the turn of the century when the alders beside the river flamed in
autumn beauty. She was schooled here . . , was taught the business of merchandising by her
father, robust and decisive August Buesing, who, back in 1898, tired of waiting for a rig to
briirg him to this side of the mountain from Ashland, bought a pack mule, took to the road and
rolled into town hours ahead of the regular stage.
Her mother was Lola Slater, whose family also came in 1898. Two years lator the yourtg
Lola was wafting tantaliiing odors across the land from the kitchen of the old Herriman
lodge on Upper Klamath Lake for boat passengers who loved her nutmeg spiced apple dump
lings. Later she served fine food at the old Beihn Hotel, a Klamath landmark.
Charlotte Buesing Carmichael first learned to greet the public with a smile and found
"the customer is always right," behind the counter of her father's store, the old O.K. Fruit
Store, and it was there her dreams of one day owning her own business, were woven on the
woof and warp of ambition ...
She married . . . then In 1937 opened her own newsstand at the location on Main Street,
just deserted for a brand new location ... in the years between, through rain and shine",
snow and blow, the folks who read, found "food for the mind" . . . from the exhilirating ex
periences of an earth bound morta! in a comic book spaceship, to a meaty treatise on "Hu
man Reactions to Atomic Energy" in the Atlantic Monthly.
Mrs. Carmichael is a home movie fan ... she plays a little tennis . . . belongs to the
Royal Neighbors, is a new member of Women of the Moose . . . devotes a bit of each day to
her eat Bolivar, and her Samoyed dog, Pancho ... she flies around to such distant places as
Cuba, motors to Mexico when the vacation, bug bites, is thinking about other foreign fields
to conquer.
Saturday, she will be greeting you at the grand opening of the new store "Bud's and
Charlotte's" . . . Bud is Earl Buesing, a brother, in charge of the camera department.
Happy sailing to a busy lady.
MRS. ALLEN E. McLEAN, state regent of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, who has been responsible for
completion of the caretaker's cottage at Champoeg State
Park (inset) and the attractive building that will house
many of Oregon's famous museum objects. Champoeg
Park is on the banks of the 'Willamette River.

The Most Mysterious
First Lady In History
Mamie Elsenhower one of the
gayest, warmest, most outgoing
personalities ever to live in the
White House has a pretty
good chance of becoming the most
aloof, mysterious and little known
First Lady In U. S. history.
Why? The Eisenhowers natu
rally hope to retain a little privacy
for themselves and protect their
friends irom the socially or po
litically ambitious. Secondly, Ma
mie's few intimates are mostly
the Army wives she has known
for years, and Ike's political

Ike and Mamie. At several pre
Inauguaratlon parties. Mrs. Wal

attendant and. according to the
the Washington grapevine, she whs

friends in (he "circle of seven"
are Mrs. Howard Snyder, wile ol
Major General Howard Snyder,
the President s personal physician.

"The Conquest of Everett.'
Sir John Hunt, is ihe story of the
conquest ol the world s highest
mountain.
The summit was reached on the
morning of May 39. 1953 by two
men who tell the story of the amaz
ing team work of others on the
expedition "who helped forge the
rungs in the long ladder to the
goal." The book is filled with photo-'
graphs and helps the reader visual
ize the climb and the victory.
Of historical value is "The Tudor
Rone," by Margaret Baines. This
is the slory of the life of the moth
er of Henry VIII, who was also
the daughter of a king of England,
the wife of a king and a sister to
the two "little lost princes." This
is one of the most faclnating books
on that period of English history
ever written.
Following is a list of books that
are good reading:
Fiction: Lord Vanity, Shellabar
gcr; Beyond This Place, Cronin;
The High and the Mighty, Gann;
Time and Time Again, Hilton: The
Lady of Arlington, Kane: The Fe
male. Wellman: Battle Civ. Urls:

of the Family, Goudge.
General: The Power of Positive
Thinking. Peale: Life is Worth Liv

Should you line your draperies
or leave them unlincd? Linings
protect the drapery fabric Horn
soil and direct sunlight, lengthen
ing its life, but make the curtains
harder to launder or more expen
sive to dry clean. The lining also
adds to the initial cost. Some home
makers prefer the effect of sun
light coming in through unlincd
fabrics to the opaque effect of
lined drapes.
