THE SAN DY (J re .) POST Thur»., Dec. 12, I960 (Sec. 1) Parents Warned of Poison Hazard in Holiday Plants Hood-Land Happenings 622-4232 B y the SNOOPER GUESS WHO finally realized the Season of Clad Tidings is upon us?? It took a C hrist inas party to drive the mes sage home to Yours T ru ly, who is now in a state of utter panic trying to get ready fo r the Big Day! Don’ t be surprised if Snoop should require another tim e out from column w riting dur ing the next couple of weeks. I’ ll try to turn in copy, but if something has to be eliminated from my schedule, you can rest assured the firs t thing to go w ill be the column. (Bet you’d be surprised if you knew how tim e- consuming it can be). • * • BEAUTIFUL WHITE SNOW bathed in moonlight was a spec ial added attraction at the Moun tain Players Christmas party, Friday night, at Timberline Lodge. The trip between Gov ernment Camp and Timberltne provided a scene of snowy mag nificence that drew comment from nearly everyone who at tended the delightfully different affair. (I say “ d ifferen t" be cause most Hoodland “ doings" are held in the lower-level es tablishments on the mountain and for many of the guests it was unusual to “ p a rty" in the Winter-Wonderland areas.) U credits were passed outfor the success of the party, top honors would have to go to the “ weatherman” fo r perfect cooperation. The snowfall ceased long enough fo r the roads to be cleared and the moonlight was an added ingredient that seemed too much to hope fo r considering the blizzard-type weather just the day before. (The Mountain Players must live right!) Any left over credit would have to be given to Carol An derson, who was chairman of the party, and to JeannineSperr, who provided punch and goodies at the Ratskeller in Govte fo r those awaiting transportation to the Lodge. (Even though the Ratskeller was in the midst of remodeling and people were jammed in like Sardines, Jean- nine managed everything with complete aplomb). Last, but not least, a portion of credit must be left for Rob ert “ Red" Hower, manager of Timberline, fo r planning a su perb buffet of great variety, quality and quantity! (Did I say everything was delicious? In deed, it was). After dinner the party ad journed to the Blue Ox Bar where Charlie Sperr resided at the piano for a sing-a-long and W ill Desmond (The Daffy Dip lomat) was up to his usual “ tricks” (or should I say “ un usual") keeping the crowd (the place was packed) happily amazed at his dexterity. Prompted by the many tele phone calls and inquires re ceived at the Physician’ s Consultation Center regarding plants, flowers, and berries, the Oregon Poison Control Reg istry is warning parents of small children to be extra cau tious during the holiday season. House plants widely used at Christmas, such as poinsettias, mistletoe, and Jersulem- cherry, are among the most deadly when eaten. One leaf of a poinsettia can k ill a child, and both children and adults have died after eating mistletoe berries. When MOUNTAIN PLAYERS MEMBERS, left to right, Anita Grandberg, Tom and Reva Cox, and Carol and Keith Schnare are enjoying after dinner entertainment in the Blue Ox Bar during Christmas party at Timberline Lodge Friday night.

When Bob reached Liberty, Mo. he decided it was necessary that the animals have a good rest and he left them w h ile he re tu r n e d to Sacramento for a couple o f weeks. In November he returned to Liberty by train to co ntin ue his journey. He arrived in near zero weather with a cold he had caught in Calif. He developed a high fever and was extremely ill. Doctor’s orders were, “ o ff the ground and home for the winter” ! » «F Bob says he is enjoying re g u la r h o t m eals, his inner-spring mattress, electric blanket and clean clothes, but he also misses the trail and is eager for spring to arrive so he can get back to it. In Uje meantime, the animals are out to pasture and Bob is spending a great deal o f time showing slides and lecturing at schools and for various organizations. He promises to keep in touch when he returns to the trail. evening......... Velma DeShazer won’t be addressing Christmas cards this year she fell and broke two bones in her right wrist!

TO CHOOSE FROM Exhaust System Service l '/ i miles east of Sandy, 2 blocks to rear of House of Wong ingested, holly berries have also resulted in poisonings.

Thank you very much M r. Bow man, for your well trainedchor- us. At the business meeting M rs.
