, Soroptimists Give Honor To Clara Shaw . Mrs. Clara Shaw, who came to Klamath Falls in 1926, really didn't mean to go into business al ' most as soon as she stepped foot 1 in the town but a business ven ture was "practically thrust upon me." That was in the year of her ar rival' and "Shazie" Shaw has scarce stopped since in her busy life. Mrs. Shaw was honored on a birthday anniversary Oct. 26 by the Klamath Falls Soroptimist Club. She was invited to the usual luncheon and surprised with pre sentation of an honorary member ship, silver candlesticks and other gifts. In recalling "how I came to get Appetite?

She paid $100 down' as goodwill money but still had not made up her mind to buy. She took a month off to go to Seaside and watch the waves, "figuring if I didn't take on the business I was just out $100." Before the month was up, a tel egram hastened her return to Klamath Falls, the ransfer was concluded and Clara Shaw was in business. She moved twice in the first year, then into the pres ent location of Shaw's which was then a pool hall, derelict among surrounding buildings. And there she stayed, accumu lating friendships until she sold to Mr. and Mrs. Al Hattan, pres ent owners. Retirement had no charms for Mrs. Shaw and she stayed on with the management, sharing her vast fund of informa lion on authors and their writings with the public for 10 years more before dispensing with the rou tine of arriving at 9 and leaving at 5. She has given away countless books to boys and girls to stimu late their interest in good read ing and devotes much of her time now to raising flowers. She is a charter member, of the Klamath Falls Soroptimist Club, organized in the early 1930s, has been a longtime member of the Klamath Falls Business, and Professional Women's Club. Mrs. Shaw has never held an office in either group. "I told them at the beginning 1 would give money and help other ways but I was too busy and I wouldn't work. And they have never let me forget it They still remind me." She was born in Susanville, Calif., then a mining town. She has a daughter, Mrs. J. Frank Adams (Ruth), Klamath Falls, a son, Frank Shaw, eight grand children and several great-grandchildren. Mrs. Shaw was the first Gold Star Mother in Klamath County following World War I.
