AT YOUR FAVORITE FOUNTAIN OR GROCER IT'S ANOTHER QUALITY PRODUCT Miss Melba Chehak. Harlalee Wilson. Bernard Windt and Al mus Pruitt gave their first pub lic penormance since organiza tion last fall, and the response was heart-warming. While the audience was not large, the ap plause was so enthusiastic as to almost bewilder the players. Par ticularly was this true of the number presented by Miss Che hak and Mr. Wilson, with Miss Chehak playing the viola and Mr. Wilson the violin. These two arc not only fine musicians but they are musically compatible and the style of each seems to complement the other's. A number of Miss Chchak's high school orchestra musicians were in the audience and they were sympathetic when the teacher lost her mute from where it had been placed on the stand. While steadily playing she kept trying to search for it with her eyes and when the moment came to adjust it on the instrument, she hastily scooped it up from where it had fallen on the hem of her full skirt. An even more amusing inci dent put the audience in a laugh ing mood at the lecture of Dr. Munk Tuesday night. Mrs. Stan ley E. Phillips, president of the league, found the microphone had not been hooked up when she rose to introduce the speak er, and she had to go through the preliminaries of whispering "testing, testing" into the instru ment, etc. Finally she began a remark and just as the first word "perhaps came out the perverse mike clicked on and the one word boomed out and echoed around the room .The startled president leaned backward sev eral inches but then regained her composure and joined in the laughter. While those in the audience probably didn't agree, Dr. Munk decided his lecture was not up to par and blamed it on the ex cellence of the dinner which he i had enjoyed in the home of Mr. j and Mrs. Leonard Carpenter be i fore he spoke. Some 200 women turned out for the card party of social club Wednesday. Ever listen to a room full of women having fun over luncheon and bridge? From a dis- tance it sounds like the beating ! of the surf or the hum of a giant j swarm of bees. However, there doesn't seem to be anything quite i so popular with the average , American woman as luncheon I and cards to say nothing of the ! added attraction of a style show, I which the party had Wednesday. Over the luncheon table the women exchange recipes, symp toms, and the newest small talk about their friends. They hear about the latest tirnj; in make-up, j how to make over a dress, where to find a good Kalian dinner and ! learn that black and white ter riers are common bv." that brown I and white terriers are fairly rare, j It's fascinating. The women Wednesday who j were novices at tne modeling j business went around afterwards i asking their friends "how did i we look?" Some were a little surprised to find that everything ! had gone smoothly as they re membered the behind-scenes con I fusion and the welter of clothes, 1 shoes, purses, earrings, neck- laces, hats, furs and a dozen oth : er items. This hurly-burly didn't faze Mrs. Lewis Wayburn.. who t often serves as a mrdcl, but Mrs. John Smith, among others, found the show left her a little wilted. been to Timberline lodge on Mt. Hood. Among these were Dr. and Mrs. O..J. Halboth, who were in a party which included Dr. and Mrs. Ralph Hibbs of Portland and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Marshall of Seattle, the, latter being sister and brother-in-law of Mrs. Hal both. The John Days and their son, Jack, have also been recent Mt. Hood visitors. Mrs.' Halboth described the skiing as excellent but has de cided that her brand of skiing is not what she would like it to be. Some have been vacationing at California beaches and in Nev ada. Arriving home this week end are Mr. and Mrs. George Roberts and Mrs. Corbin Edgell, who have been at Carmel. Oth ers who have been at Carmel and at Las Vegas are Mr. and Mrs. Martin Luther Sr., Mrs. Marjorie Pitts. Mrs. Lillian Saladc and Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Norris. The returning travelers last week found many signs of spring at home. Sunshiny days saw peo ple again strolling through the parks and resting on the park benches and those who have maple trees were attaractcd by the hum of bees, for some of the maples are putting out their ear ly spring blossoms. This week's dog story Is about Hale Greenman, and the family canines. It seems Mr. Greenman went down town late one after noon to buy a gift for his wife, taking the two dogs in the fam ily car. He returned with his purchase and a couple of hours later when Mrs. Greenman went to give the dogs their evening meal she was surprised to find both gone. Hearing this. Mr. Greenman gave his wife a strange look, raced out to the car and down town. Arriving in the vicinity of Swem's store, where he had parked while shop ping, Mr. Greenman found the two dogs anxiously scanning ev ery passing car. Herschel Morris. It seems, is a camera fan, and like most of his picture-taking friends, is always making shots of his family, friends and their activities. Last Sunday the Morrises celebrated their silver wedding anniversary and after the party was over and the last guest gone, Mr. Morris suddenly remembered that he had not taken a single picture.
