Thursday, Oct. 2, 1941, Vernonia Eagle, Vernonia, Oregon Letter Tells of Interesting Visit— A letter from Mr. and Mrs. Paul C. Parker (Wiila Crowder) was brought in by Mrs. William Crowd er this week, describing their meet ing the Henry Morganthaus and Eleanor Roosevelt. That part of the letter is reprinted below.

Later in the week Secretary of the Treas ury Morganthau and Mrs. Morgan- thau came by and we chatted for some time.

She had on a fairly plain white summer dress with a beige coat and the inevitable white band in her hair. Perhaps to strike the right national defense note, she wore white coupon stockings and white shoes. She was also interested in the nutritional problem and also inquired about GAY SWEATERS 1 our national and county statistics. She supported the plan and gave us a statement which we could use as publicity. We enjoyed meeting her very much and were mucn im pressed with the ease of her man- ner. People there seemed rather familiar with her and did not pay any particular attention to her visit.” “Winston Churchill” Reviewed Thursday— “Winston Churchill” by Renee Kraus was reviewed by Mrs. Wil liam Heath at the September 25 meeting of the Vernonia Study Club held at the home of Mrs. Hale Greenman.
