April 20. 1952 Community Chest Workshops Feature of Tuesday Conclave r The statewide Community Chest conference to be held Tuesday starting t 9:30 ajn. in the Marion Hotel is the first meetinf of its kind -for Salem. Inspired by a need for clarity and organization in fund drives, the meeting plans to air viewpoints from many different facets of so ciety, the better to understand the ntsee in these drives. Keynoting the conference ses sions will ho a speech by Charles Sampson, associate director of the department of campaign and fi rm rice for the National Community Chest. Sampson, alon with three other representatives, comes to Sa lem from New York. The other three, who will take active participation in the events ei this conference are Henry We ber, director of public relations; Boliert E.

These men. along with 12 other representatives from the North west area, have been invited by local representatives to participate in this meeting. They are all en route to Vi oria. B.

The rX)RTLANT-- Any one inter ested In primroses should attend the Oregon Primrose Society Show now on at Portland. The show opened Saturday at the Oregon Journal Building on Harbor Drive and will close Sunday night with a sale of plants. The color that greets the visi tors as they enter the lobby is dazzling. It looses nothing of its attractiveness as visitors study the individual plants and colors. But those attending, should not miss (as I very nearly did) the ama teur show in the rear of the building. This is devoted chiefly to seedlings produced in home gardens In variety that is startling. Some years ago. one found only one or two exhibitors of this odd primrose- And the flowers them selves very almost as much as there are numbers of exhibitors. They are shown in greens, in reds. in yellows, blues and lavenders and in combinations of the colors. One of the most odd and yet very attractive, I found was that in a collection by Mrs. V. J. Karoopp of Portland. The center of this was a nile green, surrounded by maroon, and edged again in the same green as the center. A prim rose not seen at many shows Is the Jack-tn-the-Green. a number of which are on display in the amateur seeolling group. The society itself, was not sell ing plants at the show Saturday as its members have done in many years. However, thye did have a plant stand at the Portland Seed Company store and were doing a brisk business there throughout the day. While you are in Portland step south half a block to the Port land Chamber of Commerce In formation Center and look over the show staged by the Portland Garden Club. While It is not of sufficient value to make a trip to Portland for, it is well worth see ing if you go up for the prim rose show. Of particular worth at the gar den club show is the horticultural daffodil group, all arranged so that every bloom may be thoroughly looked over. Each is labeled and each bears a price. In the higher price bracket is the beautiful, flat white bloom, Chi nese White, selling at $20 a bulb. But almost as lovely, although not quite so large, Is the Silver Salver, which can be had for only 60 cents, or Shot Silk for 55 cents. I liked the pink-cupped Cover Girl which sells for $10 a bulb, as I also did Ballet at the same price. and Beauty Glow and Carolie each at $6. Then there were such at tractive ones as Nova Scotia at 30 cents, and Seraglow at $1.20, both with flat orange centers. Camellia and rhododendron dis plays were similar to the daffo dils, only the shrub sections did not carry prices. Prices vary too much in different nurseries, ac cording to the sizeNOf the shrubs. Cliamber to Hear Glenn Klein Talk On New Zealand A former Oregon State College student who has spent nearly a year farming in New Zealand will talk to Salem Chamber of Com merce Monday on his experiences there with the International Farm Youth Exchange prograrr-. He is Glenn Klein, a 1951 grad uate of- OSC. and the son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Klein of Aums ville. Young Klein lived and worked with farm families in New Zealand for the past nine months. New member of the Chamber is Vernon H. Olsen, Marion Coun ty health educator. and so were omitted. I liked the white Amabilis. with it3 bright yellow stamens, and the single, rose-hued Christine Lee, best of the camel lias on snow. In the artistic division the May baskets were outstanding.
