blazed the trails now have de
pendents who burn up the roads.
the duplicate club, came home
from the recent regional session
of the National All-Western
Mixed Pair tournament In Port
land all covered with glory
and master points. Mrs. Conroy,
with A. C. Dobey of Beaverton
as a partner, topped the second
session of the tournament and
finished third in the over-all
scoring, netting herself seven
master points. This is quite a
haul for. one tournament, say
the bridge experts.
Mrs. Conroy now has earned
her national master rating with
a total of 50 master points, and
is the only one in this city to
hold the rating. Others in the
duplicate club are on the way
up but have a few points yet
to go.
At the meeting of the club
Tuesday some of the "regulars"
who have been missing from the
weekly gathering because of win
ter vacations, were back in the
fold again. This included Wil
liam Isaacs, who, with Mrs.
Isaacs, has been south on a win
ter Vacation, and Roy Pruitt. The
Pruitts recently came home af
ter spending several weeks in
the south.
One of the ardent players
missing from the club's meeting
Tuesday night was B. L. bander
son. Mr. Sanderson, it seems,
hasn't been speaking to anyone
in recent days, not even Mrs.
Sanderson. He isn't mad; it's doc
tor's orders. It seems Mr. S. has
a throat ailment and it was
finally decided that to hasten
recovery he must quit talking.
So he did. Not one word for
days and days and since it's
pretty impossible to play dupli
cate bridge in complete silence,
Mr. Sanderson was missing from
the club's weekly sessions for a
couple of Tuesdays. The patient
has now progressed to where he
can talk for one-half hour a day.
While the Isaacs were down
south they saw a number of for
mer Medford people, took in a
few plays and shows and Mr.
Isaacs played some bridge, com
ing up against two national mas
ters at one spot.
Among the couples they saw
while south were Mr. and Mrs.
Edgar Stevens, formerly of Port
land and now of Santa Barbara;
Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Vawter,
formerly of Medford and now of
Santa Barbara, and the W. G.
(Bud) Pflums, who also now
live in the same city. The Isaacs
spent some time with John B.
Goodrich, who was with Mr.
Isaacs in his store here for a
time, and his wife, who now
live in San Diego.
Slops were made in San Fran
cisco, Oakland and Los Angeles,
as well as some coast towns, be
fore the couple returned home
to Big Rock lodge on the Rogue
river.
Mrs. John Carter came up with
a new phrase last week while
giving out a news story about
family night at the "Y." Mrs.
Carter said a "live orchestra"
would play. Greeted with laugh
ter, she joined in and added,
"That's what I was told to say!"
Recently Mrs. Kenneth Farley,
ardent gardener and rose-lover,
was asked to speak for the Jack
sonville Garden club and tell
how to properly prune a rose
bush. Mrs. Farley evidently de
cided that the best way to show
anyone how to prune a rose was
to demonstrate,' so she arrived
at the meeting bringing a rose
bush planted in a bucket and
proceeded to prune as she spoke.
visual education.
A news bulletin from New
York had a word for milady who
sews at home. Says the bulletin,
"At last it's here! A long awaited
answer to a dream pleats by
the yard." The article added
that the material comes in nylon
and acele and in nil the high
style of new spring colors. The
same bulletin also mentions a
new wrinkle-proof linen male-rial.

Judge George Hardy of
Shreveport, La., who spoke for
the Knife and Fork clubbers
Monday night, achieved the
practically impossible by saying
things which p. eased both the
democrats and the republicans.
The judge, a former mayor of
Shreveport, had just a touch of
southern accent and was a most
charming after-dinner speaker.
Later he rega'ed members with
"inside dope" concerning the
late Huey P. Long and his fol
lowers. Mrs. Stephen G. Nye, school
board member, and Dwigtt
Houghton, councilman for the
city, drew adjoining chairs for
the event "and while e.tting their
dinners gave city problems a
good going over.
Mrs. Richard Sleeter arrived
at the dinner worried about
the glow on her face. It
seems she acquired a sunburn
while skiing the day before and
for a time thought she wouldn I
even dare put in an appearance
at the country club. However,
24 hours sufficed to tone down
the di.mage.
Valley artists have been In the
background for some time now.

them out again. From Gold Hill :
comes word that C. R. Dolph,
director of the museum at Mary

of Chicago, is to have some of

The exhibit is planned by Zeta

Sgt. and Mrs. Ardell Marxs, who were married In November,
were honored at a reception given February 17 when the couple

sergeant is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Marri, 421 West Fourth
street. The reception was given at the Girls' Community club by
