The tables were filled with articles which caused ecstatic squeals to come from some of the spectators, while other people would let that old thing" set up in the attic and gather dust. Near tne aoor was a six-niece place setting of china with a price tag of $95. These looked mighty familiar, for they were only mother's old dishes, used to keep the "good dishes" look ing nice and new. Curiosity call ed for closer examination. A trademark revealed tho name, "Royal Ironstone China, Alfred Mcakin, England." As one dealer pointed out, "You either love Ihem and cher ish them or you can't stand them thercs no half-way point when it comes to antiques, Half ol what makes an antique what it is, is the story that goes along wim n, tnis reporter de cided as she talked to dealers who were only too willing to ex pound a tale to go with each treasured article. There was an embossed hand-carved brass tray that was brought to Philadelphia over a 100 years ago from India. There was an amber liquor set intact with three cruets and 12 tiny liquor glasses which ladies of France used in days long gone by. There was a worn-looking, hand-carved dustpan that looked as if it had been used many a time in a pioneer cabin before the housewife could go to the store and buy a metal dustpan. Another eyecatcher was a Gor man pitcher of pottery with in tricately raised designs, hand made, with the date "1592. One dealer's display featured Oriental rugs ... so luxurious looking that it inspired one spec tator to comment, "I'd lust like to get down and roll on that! The displays did not feature only glassware, china, and furni ture. They included jewelry. articles that could only be term ed "gew-gaws," old papers one bore the dateline ot "Tho Ports mouth Journal and Rockingham Gazette, February 23, 1828. and even a 1921 license plate! What is an antique? It has to be old, that's for sure, but what else? One dealer summed the answer to that question when she said: Some people come in to the shop and know all about the trade name, who made it, and its history. Others come in and when you start to tell them about the article, they say, don't care lovely'.

A low-calorie high protein froz-l en dairy dessert that's just right for the thousands of waistline watchers and the hundreds of diabetics in this area is a new product made in Lane County. Made from fresh cream, whole milk, defatted milk from which part of the lactose has been re moved, fresh whole eggs and sweeteners, plus the usual stabil izer and emusifier, the product is put tip in pint cartons. It sells for just under 50 cents a pint and is available in several flavors. Unlike some frozen desserts made for diet-conscious persons, this product doesn't leave an un pleasant salt aftertaste, according to the local producers, who buy the complete powdered mix from the research division ot a wen known firm but mix it with the right amount of liquid, freeze and package it locally. The sweet ening agents mentioned are man nitol, sorbitol and sucaryl. The finished product has a taste comparable to regular ice cream, say those who have tasted it.
