SPEEDY DELIVERY
DESTROYERS PLEA
Portland, Aug. 28. Pi The
Immediate dispatch of 50 obso
lete American destroyers to
Great Britain "right now" was
urged by Niel R. Allen, Ore
gon Legion commander, yester
day.
"Let's get those destroyers
steamed up, put Canadians on to
run them and send them over
right now," he said in a talk be
fore the Rotary club.
The Legion commander said
the selective service act was
"the only democratic method of
, raising an army" and declared

In recent yean the Idea of
flower arranging has become in
creasingly popular among wo
men everywhere. Indeed, with
many, this is now their favor
ite hobby. The possible combin
ations and arrangements are
endless and the fun comet in
the originality with which one's
own thought and personality
can be expressed.
Oliver Gustafson, manager of
the Coca-Cola Bottling company
of Medford, states. "Undoubted
ly this interest In flower arrang
ing is responsible for the phe
nomenal popularity of a book
called 'Flower Arranging A
Fascinating Hobby,' recently
published and being distributed
by the Coca-Cola Company, At
lanta. Ga."
The book is written In a light
and fascinating vein by Laura
Lee Burroughs, one of the rec
ognized experts in this field.
Her ideas and suggestions are
illustrated by 48 photographs
of flower arrangements exquis
itely photographed In full color.
It is said that literally thou
sands of flowers "posed" for
their pictures before the final
groupings were selected.
At first glance you would
think the flower combinations
are only . for the experts, so
strikingly beautiful are the ar
rangements. But Mrs. Bur
roughs comments simply on
each grouping in a way that
is very easy to understand and
it isn't long before you begin
to see that the only limit to
the pleasure and variety of ex
pression in th's hobby Is your
own imagination
Mrs. Burroughs sums up tne
whole matter very neatly.
"This book." she says, "is for
flower lovers everywhere. It s
for Aunt Jane who loves flow
ers but never knows what to
do with them; for the beginner
who still thinks roses and as-
paragus ferns are Inseparable;
for the hostess of the little hotel
where you stopped last sunr
mer, who rarely has an oppor
tunity to see what others are
doing with flowers; for garden
club members who have long
been studying this subject: in
short for every woman with
few spare moments who wants
to make her home a pleasanter
place to live.
"For flower arranging is a
fascinating hobby. Why not try
it? Once your enthusiasm and
interest are aroused, you will
never again be able to place
flowers carelessly In a vase. You
will develop a critical eye. You
will want to make a beautiful
picture instead of a haphazard
grouping.
For this hobby, tne size oi
your budget doesn't matter. Use
your ingenuity to create beauty
with inexpensive material.
Study line arrangements and
learn to make few tiowers
tell a story as eloquently as
dozens.
'There are weeds along the
roadside that need only to be
touched by your imagination to
add distinction to your living
room. Common mullein has cap
tured prizes in recent flower
shows, to the great chagrin of
floral aristocrats. Queen-Annes-
lace can be as dainty as a bridal
veil and pokeberry as modern
as streamlining.
"If you live In an eighteenth
century house, you can make
your arrangements as authentic
as your highboy by massing
them in containers of the per
iod. "For that early American
room, your flowers in copper
lustre pitcher can be as quaint
as your hooked rug.
"If your home is Just com
fortable, no particular style or
period, let flowers add distinc
tion. "Finally, if you are young
and your house or apartment is
modern, you can literally swing
your flowers in the tempo of
the times."

two ends of the Rome-Berlin
axis, lunched with the fuehrer
and then took a plane for the
capital of old Austria, there to
meet the foreign ministers of
Rumania and Hungary and their
aides.
Adding urgency to the peace

Rumanian and Hungarian fron

clashes between Rumanian and
Russian forces.

At the same time they left no
