Think function, not fashion
when seeing doctor
When older adults need to see the
doctor, functional clothing is more
important than fashion, points out
Carol Bennett, Oregon State Univer
sity Extension agent in Morrow
County. Here are some ideas:
A trip to the lab for a blood test
means you’ll need to have your
elbow free. Even if it's only a blood
pressure check, a sleeve can get in
the way. A short sleeve or a long
sleeve that can be pushed above your
elbow will help.
When you need to undress, a two-
piece outfit with a pullover or front
opening top is easier to manage.
Some women find two-piece sweat
suits a good idea because they’re
warm, comfortable and fit loosely.
Front-opening sweatsuits have the
advantage of not messing your hair.
You may want to leave your
figure-control undergarments at
home and wear minimal underwear
because foundation garments are
usually difficult to get on and off
quickly.
Pantyhose usually must be remov
ed and can be a bother to put on
again. But knee socks might not need
to be removed and are warm.
Most clinics involve several floors
of offices with various specialties.
You'll get around easier in low-
heeled or flat shoes.
Think function, not fashion, when
visiting the doctor.

Book reports heard at lone Topic Club
lone Topic Club met at the home
of Jean Nelson on Wednesday.
January 23 with Christy Crowell as
co-hostess. Christy gave two short
book reports. “ Double Speak” by
William Lutz gave a new way to
look at old expressions Potholes are
now known as pavement deficien
cies, poor people as under achievers,
car mechanics, as automotive inter
nists, teachers as classroom
managers, desks as pupil stations and
death as a diagnostic misadventure
of a high magnitude. This is a
humorous book that is interesting to
read within the family, said a
spokesperson
“ Don’t Know Much About
History," by Kenneth C. Davis in
cludes everything you need to know
about American history but never
learned This book talks about what
we learn in our history classes but
points out that there are many other
ways to interpret the events.
Christy is the club librarian and
she pointed out that anyone who
wishes information on a certain sub
ject may order books through the
lone Public Library from the state
library with no cost except the return
postage on the books. Edith Mat
thews is at the lone Library on Mon
