Page From History Ancient Methods Used in Egg Decor If you'd be really up to date on decorating Easter eggs, take a page out of history, says Mrs. C. R. (Velma) Mitchell, Lane extension agent.

"The wom en spend days ornamenting eggs with brilliantly colored floral and geometric designs be lieved to be the same the an cient Persians used." - Nor is their work In vain, she added. Many eggs are treas ured as equisite pieces of art. In north England, Easter eggs bearing names and dates often generations old are admitted on a par with records in the family Bible and tombstones as Court evidence. Two Pen Women Win Top Honors Two members of Eugene branch of National League of American Pen Women won na tional awards in the annual con tests for writers sponsored by NLAPW. Marg Blood (Mrs. Raymond) of Lowell won first prize in the published short story division for her "The Eighth and Only Child," which appeared in a magazine for teen-agers called Ingenue, and was later bought and used by Revue for an epi sode In the Wagon Train series on television. Cora Hawkins (Mrs. Lon) won a second award in the junior story division with a story called "God's Little Boy." Principal among methods for glamorizing the egg are "batik ing," the agent said. By alter nately dipping the egg in wax, scraping away portions, dipping in dye, then by repeating the series of steps again and again, the most intricate designs and color combinations can be achieved. To create a Moravian egg, glowing and velvety finished, only the egg "literally fresh from the nest," can be used, the agent said. The evenness of color and depth of tone depend on an egg unmarred by cooking or rubbing. The design in the Moravian egg is painted on with a wooden applicator, then covered with beeswax. In the final step, the egg is immersed in a dark color bath for background contrast. Just the opposite egg is need ed for the Czechoslovakian egg. First, it is scrubbed with an UCT Auxiliary Books Speaker United Commercial Travelers Auxiliary will meet Saturday at 8 p.m. in Knights of Pythias Hall, 1230 Lawrence St. Mrs. Frank Bloomer, member of the State Council for the Aging, will be speaker, the program topic to be "Activity Is the Key to Happiness."
