Perhaps a choice cup
and saucer of English
bone china or precious
Irish Belleek ... or a
quaint lace edged Ba
varian bowl or a hand
painted tea set for gra
cious entertaining.
The most memorable
gift of all would be
fine china dinnerware

You may start with one
place setting, or even
a simple piece. If you
prefer to let Mother
select her own pattern,
a gift certificate is the
ideal remembrance.

The horticulture lesson, given
by Mrs. Martin Heitkamp, was
on "Annuals." From her talk the
audience received many good
ideas on planting annuals for
color and height and other es
sentials of a good border or
planting bed.
Mrs. Heitkamp recently at
tended the Oakland flower show
and gave first-hand information
on several new Introductions,
mentioning the new petunia,
Fire Chief, and a new pink pe
tunia, named Cheerful. She
pointed out that annuals are im
portant in that they "fill in" at
a time when some perennials are
through blooming and others are
getting ready to bloom.
Speaker ot the day was Mrs.
Harry C. Smith of Cave Junction,
Ore., and she spoke on "Flower
Arranging." She began with the
suitability of background, space
and occasion and then illustrated
correct usage of different con
tainers and flower holders. After
this she proceeded with the mak
ing of several fine arrangements,
using flowers provided by mem
bers, all of which were enthusi
astically received.
A group of garden club mem
bers from Shady Cove prepared
tea. The beautiful tea table cen
terpiece was a M a y pole on a
greensward of mosses dotted
with tiny spring flowers.
Attention was called to the
district meeting to be held in the
Grange hall in Rogue River May
9. and also to the state meeting
to be held at Klamath Falls May
13-13.
In bringing her year as club
president to a close, Mrs. Leigh
ton last week called attention to
the fact that one of the club's
major projects for the year, new
draperies for the YMCA recrea
tion room, has just been com
pleted. The club, as well as other
organizations of the city, use the
recreation room as a meeting
place.
The draperies have a back
ground of soft gray-green with
large leaves of green and rust,
and add much to the cheerful at
mosphere of this big room. Since
the windows are many, and
large, the expenditure was al
most $300, with the garden club
raising almost two-thirds of this
sum.
Announcing completion of the
project, Mrs. Leighton said she
wished to "gratefully acknowl
edge" donations from a number
of groups, including the YMCA
square dance group. Chapter AA,
PEO, Wednesday Study club,
American Association of Univer
sity Women, Lady Lions and
Just Folks club, as well as the
cooperation of Wakefield's Drap
ery shop.
