The Cozy
The Vernonia Study Club met
Thursday evening, Oct. 4, at the
home of Mrs. Holly Holcomb, Jr.
1
Mrs. Clarence Holamberg, sister
of Mrs. Merle Ruhl, was a guest
of the evening.
During the business session
Mrs. Harry Culbertson, the pres­
ident of the Club, asked the civ­
ic committee to attend the next
Booster Club dinner and offer
our assistance and cooperation in
establishing a youth recreational
center, which project had been
discussed at one of their meet­
ings.
Mrs. Marvin Kamholz was in
charge of the program for the
evening and she presented a very
interesting review of the book,
“The Pattern of Soviet Power”
by Edgar Snow, indisputably one
of the best informed of foreign
correspondents. Edgar Shaw pro­
vides in “The Pattern of Soviet
Power” a direct reply to the cas­
ual critics of a country and peo­
ple that stemmed the tide of
Fascism. His long residence in
the Soviet Union has given him
a point of view that is both sym­
pathetic and critical.
“The Pattern of Soviet Power”
is a timely and an important con­
tribution to one of the most
vital problems of our time.
The next meeting of the club
will be held on October 18, at
the home of Mrs. Ben Bricks!,
with Mrs. Harry Culbertson in
charge of the program.
