Storms Of Winter Affect Social News; Couples To Hawaii Strictly speaking, the weather may not be social news but the past week's weather, with wind, rain, snow and everything but sunshine, affected the week's activities considerably. Meetings have been canceled, or held with but a few in attendance, and householders spent their time driving the children to school through the storms, shoveling snow and watching the roof for signs of leaks. A few hardy souls declare they enjoy the cold, white stuff and some even went so far as to help the small fry make snow men. The Howard Bush family spent an afternoon executing a master piece in snow, not forgetting to add a special pipe which they keep just to grace each year's snow man's face. Way back last summer a num ber of valley residents, remem bering the past winter, gave thought to winter vacations and are spending this month in sun . nier spots. Included are Mr. and Mrs. Al Littrell, who are sail ing tomorrow from San Fran cisco on the Matson liner Lurline for Hawaii. On the same ship will be Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Hearin of Medford, also Honolulu bound, and Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Bauer, former Medford residents now living in California. The passenger list also In cludes other Medford couples who rank themselves among the "please don't publish until we get home." In southern California for a winter vacation are Mrs. M. M. Herman of Talent and Mrs. E. H. McKee of Medford. The two left a week ago, and will not be home before February. However, the list of travelers includes people coming to the city, as well as those leaving. Among the visitors are Mrs. Rob ert Squires and small daughter, Stephanie, who have arrived from Bellingham to spend sev eral weeks with Mrs. Squire's parents, Mr. and Mrs. V. D. Brophy, while Mr. Squires is m the east on business. Stephanie's pet name is "Taffy" which seems to fit her pixie-like face and ap pealing personality. Home from their wedding trip are Mr. and Mrs. Bert B. Lowry who spent part of the time since their December wedding at Cam elback inn, desert resort near Phoenix, Ariz. Mrs. Lowry is the former Mrs. Lilla Purucker. One of the meetings which wasn't canceled, due to the fore thought of a state officer who arrived a day early, just to be sure, was the organizational meeting Saturday afternoon of a new PEO sisterhood chapter in Medford. This makes the third PEO chapter in this city, with two in Ashland and two in Grants Pass. The ceremony was held at the First Methodist church, with Mrs. J. R. McCready, state or ganizer from Forest Grove, in charge. Mrs. McCready was ac companied by her husband and the two were to leave Saturday night, after the chapter func- Jean Hart's Diary January 15 I drift into a traveler's dream A$ I count dresses one by one. The golden desert beckons me. . I'd sit beneath a Joshua tree And warm my bones in the sun. I'd wear this sun dress In the morning The top is decorous and very concealing I'd change to my Matters or maybe my Burry They are both grand to slip on when you're in a hurry. Tho the back and the shoul ders are very revealing. They'd do for the beach If that's where I'm going " And this Primo's Is dressy and Just right for dinner I'd take a short coat in pastel or white To slip on my shoulders to walk thru the night And people would whisper and say "what a winner." There are dresses for travel ing and dresses for cruising And whimscially speaking I wish them good bye . . And stamp some warmth in my icicle toes And look with disgust at my winter blue nose And say with the rest "I can dream can't I." "The Hart of Fashion" 22 5.

'.. 1 i 1 1 k Today, the diamond-cutter's art has been developed to the highest pitch. The stones we offer you have all been studied, and cut with a mathematical precision to show their glorious fire. Cems of similar size and weight to those we show you may have far less fire, due to Improper cutting. We select only FINE diamonds to put before you. Every gem we show you has passed our strict tests for color, "fire," and freedom from flaws. Never take a chance In buying diamonds even for your smallest gem purchase, buy from a house of reputation! JLERS MEDFORD, OREGON Give with Pride Let Brophy'i Medford Unit Members Learn Of Seasoning At Wednesday Meeting Medford Home Extension unit members met Wednesday at the recreation hall on Priddy street, with Mrs. C.
