4 PAGE TWO HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 1 955 State Library Aids Oregon Legislators, Rural Areas By PAUL W, IIARVEV JR. SALEM 1 Misi Fleanor Stephens, whose 50-year-old Oregon State Library has made a tremen dous contribution to the cultural development ol Oregon, thinks it's time (or counties and cities to take . over much of the library Job. Miss Stephens, state librarian, doesn't like the way hi which rural state library patrons still have to order books by mail. She thinks they should have service Irom county and local libraries. The Oregon State Llbiary, the first mail order library in the United StPtes, was founded 50 years bro this month by Miss Cor. rielia Mnrvin. Now Mrs. Waller Pierce, she arrived here from Wis consin to start the library. In its first two years, It hid only 2,500 books. With little cash, but with a wealth of tenacity and determination, she spent 34 years on the Job. She worked tirelessly to build up a modern library, and to start local libraries. She succeeded In geltlnp the Postoffire Department to giant a cheap rate on book shipments. Miss Harriet C. Lone served from 1930 to 1841. Her major ac complishment was Rolling the marble library building built in 1939. Miss Stephens has been car rying on the work since. Tile library has 630.0(10 bonks, and ships 110,000 a year to Its cus-.-' toniers, most of whom live in re mote arear.. Its primary businoM is its null order department, by which It mails books to residents of rural areas where there are no libraries. Jt has other Jobs, too. It loans books to other libraries, and pro- Morjortt MAIN Prey KILBRIDE Ml NI1ION IVION MIMU HltO HAtlll PLUSi Shorts - Cartoon -AMO- FREE CART RIDES FOR THE KIDOIESI POORS OPFN B-30 P.M.

The sUte library ploys a big part in shaping state legislation by giving inforiaation on state affairs to members of the Legislature. It keeps the state archives, and serves public ctficials. it alio loans books to inmates of Mate institu tions. And it keeps on pluming for bet ter school, local and traveling' li braries. All of this costs the taxpayer only 15 cents a year. Mis Stephens, facin? on increas innly toueher task in preaching the importance of books in ihw age ol television, often loses patience wih county courts and oity council. It seems that when they have to cut expenses, the libraries are the first to get cut. Under a 1955 law, she's now pro moting the idea that two or more counties should join together to have regional libraries. She says "local i (sources are not bring buiH up as they should be. The state libr.irv is being di verted from essential services." Miss Stephens believes the state library should Jj less mail order business, and concentrate more on research and supp'.ei.ie.itmg the collections of local libraries. But she can't reduce the mull order department until tV: are more local libraries. Ker job, from now on. will In clude selling the counties and cities on parting with enough cash lu build new libraries. The customers of the state li brary are grateful- lor the service. Miss Stephens (jets hundreds ol thank-you notes every year. Many persons in isolated areas depend on the library books to re lieve boredom. Others ufc them to leirn trades and hobbies, am! how to cope with problems on their farms. When they want almost any kind of a question answered, they turn to the library. Miss Stepnrns Is n-oud of her library and its staff. So are the thousands of persons who know It and use it. But she wishes people would get on the ball and create more of them.

Scout Reports After we left Missoula, the hills got a little steeper with quite a lew trees on them. Later as we went on and into the copper-muv int country, the trees became few. er and the mines and smelters be came more numerous. Here we aw the Anaconda mines, their smoke stacks are the largest in the world. At approximately 10.15 a.m. we aaw the Montana School of Mines in Butte. In Butte we also saw some of the open copper mines. As we left Butte we started climbing up towards the continent al divide. The trees became more plentiful again. At 11 o'clock Thursday morning we passed over the divide. The country from Harlowton, Montana on has been very flat with sharp lot. rolling hills. In these hills there are cattle graz ing and antelope in some places. The train Is about one hour late will be forgotten by the United Stales. Every available means will be employed' by our government to establish contact with, to sup port and obtain the release of all our prisoners of war." The President also: 1.

Eisenhower and his grand son, who arrived from a Colorado boys camp Tuesday evening, are staying in a new cottage at Niel sen s syers peak Ranch. All advance indications had been that grandfather Eisenhower would give David his first fly-casting les son. But the President turned the Job over to Nielsen and some of Ihe Secret Service agents. James O. Hagerty, White House press secretary, told newsmen that the President and Nielsen together caught about It trout. The daily limit for each fisherman is 10. Hagerty explained to reporters that the President shunned the placid pond where David fished because that kind of setup "Is not his dish."

MclNTYRE TRAVEL SERVICE Y.ur iiMri.ne.a At WILLARD HOTEL Ph 3081 Railway Trip so It Is going about 75 to 80 miles per hour. When they go this fast the train rocks and sways so bad that U la hard to walk. The town and state chambers of commerce along the way have giv en us a lot of useful information. We are running about three hours behind schedule right now. Thursday night ' we passed through North and South Dakota and most of Minnesota. As we pulled Into Minneapolis we were eating breakfast. The next city that we came into wai St. Paul. At Hastings, Minnesota I got my first glimpse of the Mississippi Riv er, at this point it was about 300 yards across and some .barges were going up it. At La Cross, Minnesota we crossed the Mississippi and went Into WiK-.oln. This country must have been once part of the river because there were little bluffs sticking up where it looked like water had cut them into their pres ent shapes. Again in Wisconsin we saw Just about the same country as Minnesota except that the hills were more of the very low roll ing type and there wasn't as much com but more dairy cows. At Mil waukee, Wisconsin all of us had to slay in our two cars so that when we got to Chicago we could quick ly change trains. When we first started coming into Chicago all the business establishments that we saw were little companies or plants of some type. At the rail road station we hiked about three blocks to get into some cars and they took us to the B It O Rail road. When we got on the train we were shown to our chair sleep ing cars, just neiore dark we saw Lake Michigan for the first time. The wind was making two or three foot high waves which had little whitecaps on top. As soon as we came upon the lake we started seeing its ore barges and the big steel mills, two of which included U. 8. Steel Corp., and Inland Steel Co. I was so busy watching the steel companies that I am not sure where we crossed into Indiana, but not too long afterwards it got dark so I went to sleep. At S o'clock in the morning I woke up and we were in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Here we saw the steel mines working at night, you could see the vats pouring the steel and in some places you could see the red hot squares of steel and feel the intense heat from them about 80 feet away through the . train window. Saturday morning when I woke up it was raining. During the night we passed through Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvan ia, and we were zig-zagglng through Maryland and west Virginia when 1 I woke up and it was still ram-1 lng and we were about to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, here the i country had high hills with a lot of ! green trees, grass, and a lot of i rain. We pulled Into Washington j at 8:30 a.m. and there was still a slight drizzle so I thought that maybe I should put on my rain coat,, to go outside, there I was hit by a blast of hot humid air. i From the Baltimore and Ohio ' stations we marched to two Grey- i lines sight seeing buses. They took 1 us to our hotel, the Blackstane, from here we started on our tour i of the city, we saw so many won- j derful sights that I will only men- j tion a few of the main ones. ' First we went to the White House where we walked through most of! the building. The first part of the j building we went through we saw the east ball room, the green, blue, and red rooms, the rooms had life size paintings of the Presi dents of the United States. Next we saw the Senate cham m ' ' Y ' OH SEE) (CARS AT YOUR JlaiA DEALER Backed by a $1,000,000 INDEMNITY BOND...

From the Senate gallery we went to the President's room, in 'which the Presidents used to sign the left over bills after Congress adjourned Next we stood above the place in the building in which the Crypt underneath was an emptv tomb which meant for George Washing, ton but for some reason or other he never did have it for his final resting place. Next we went to the House of Representatives Chamber where every state has their state emblem there. This fin. ithed the tour of the Capitol Build ing. From the tapitol Bldg. we went to Christ Church, it is the church that Robert E. Lee and George Washington attended. Next we went to the Masonio Lodge's Lincoln Memorial Building it is quite tall and has a pretty green stair step hid on which it sets. Inside we learned some more about George Washington and saw some of the relics, a wedding glove that he wore, two swords that laid across his body when he died, a piece of a tree that he planted and many other things. Next we went to the other Lin coln Memorial in which is a large statue of him silting down. From here we went out to Washington's home at Mt. Vernon here I saw his house, his and Martha's, the Potomac, his Washington house, smoke house, his carriage, the gar den house, the gardens, and the many other interesting sights. From Mt. Vernon we went to Arlington National Cemetery here we saw the guards change which was very Impressive. We saw many well-known build lugs like the Atomic Energy Com mission Building.
