MARLYS PHEGLEY won high
Tuesday night at Pinochle
club with Gail Burkenbine en
tertaining the group. Rene Toll
won the pinochle after it finally
decided to travel in the last two
progressions, changing hands
four times before she got it! And
to think it could have moved
in the first round but Beverly
Sherman missed sending one
"leg" to her partner, Myrna
Sutherland! Just think, would
have been 300 more meld. Others
playing were Marge Eckman,
Jackie Allstott, Joyce Phegley,

YOU'VE HEARD of the old
fashioned neighborly building
fetes? Well, they are still in
style as proved by the Dave

week-end. Yes, they invited
friends, the Darrel Powers of
Hermiston, to spend the week
end. What do they do but roof
the house! Also friends, Calvin
Shermans got in on the project.
With a little supervision from
the wives, all is done and they
hope no more leaks in the
closets!

HAVE YOU noticed the new
colors appearing in the dresses
for fall? They are definitely
going for forest greens, oranges,
yellows, and browns. Sounds like
the outdoors fall colors. As to
hemlines, they seem to be the
same as last year and more to
the point, they should be the
length that best suits the indiv
idual. But please, not back to
those lengths nearly to the
ankles, as viewed in the home
movies we saw, which were taken
not too many years ago! Then
again not those short slim skirts
that you spend the whole even
ing trying to keep down while
sitting. Many dresses now in the
shops are of the shirtwaist style
with gathered or slim skirt. A
clothing fad for this year is the
elbow patches on eirls clothes.
wny, it wasn t too long ago
when the kids wouldn't have
dreamed of wearing patched
ciotnes!

THE PERIDOT
AND SARDONYX
Both symbols of happiness in
marriage, as well as '
eloquence and persuasiveness,
for her:
The delicacy of a Peridot,
combining the green of a fresh
budded leaf and golden
sunshine, gives a feeling of f
eternal Spring ... a ring she
will love.
for him:
A ring set with August's
companion stone, the
Sardonyx, lends distinction
to the man who wears it. . .
either plain or carved in cameo
or intaglio ... a ring that will
be worn with pride.
note: The Peridot Is available
in natural or synthetic stone
"Something from the jeweler's,
is always something special."
