May Brings Last Meetings
For -Many Women's Groups
With May drawing to a close many women'a groups are hold
ing final meetings of the year, the air is full of wedding plans and
children are beginning to long for the last day of school. Warm
May weather has also brought out the lawn and patio furniture at
valley homes, and many of the recent club meetings have been out
door events.
A special event in the city
Thursday was a party for Mrs.
Mary Holloway, who was 90
years old. Alert and bright-eyed.
Mrs. Holloway enjoyed every
moment of her special day. With
her pretyy blue dress she wore
a big orchid which was tre gift
of Mrs. Clarence Meeker, now
of New York City.
A native of Lincolnshire in
England, Mrs. Holloway talked
about how she came to eastern
Oregon in 1889 to be married.
It seems her fiance was worried
about how she would like living
eastern U re eon in pioneer
style. "I just told him, if you
can live in Oregon, so can I
Mrs. Holloway recalled. Mrs.
Holloway had been an Episco
palian but it was 20 miles to
the nearest Episcopal church,
and with only a farm wagon for
transportation, the young couple
decided they would join the
near-by Methodist church. For
many years, Mrs. Holloway
worked in the Methodist church
es in eastern Oregon and the Wil
lamette valley, and when her
90th birthday arrived, some of
her cards of congratulation and
best wishes came from women
who as girls had been in her
Sunday school classes in the
Brownsville Methodist church in
the Willamette valley.
Mrs. Holloway. who has lived
through the exciting age of the
development of telephone, radio,
airplane travel and other mar
vels of industry, recalls that
when they lived in eastern Ore
gon, there was not even a well
on the farm and water had to
be hauled by wagon over the
pioneer Barlowgate route.
Mrs. Holloway j son, William,
former Medford business man
now living in Tempe, Ariz., flew
to Medford for the party. When
his mother said that she was
born Mary Skelton, he added
that she must be a relative of the
famous radio comedian Skelton
for her sense of humor is a
tradition in the family.
Mr. Holloway, an ardent
fisherman, said he had left his
fishing tackle at home after a
hard struggle with his con
science for he knew that once
he started fishing in the Rogue,
he'd forget everything else. Fish
ing in Arizona is much differeni
he says, with lake fishing ioi
bass being the mainstay ol
anglers in the region of Tempe.
Mrs. James Fleming. Medford
daughter with whom Mrs. Hoi
loway lives, was so, excited over
the party that she kept forget
ting the names of her own sister,
during Introductions.
The lone man PTA presiden
in the city is Al Randies, recent
ly boosted into that office by the
Jackson school unit. No one
seems to be sure, but many be
lieve he is the first man ever
to hold a PTA presidency in
Medford, although there are
many in other parts of the state
and nation.
It seems Mr. Randies didn't
need any coaxing, either. He
likes children, likes school and
at one time wanted to be a teach
er. He has faithfully attended
the PTA meetings al Jackson,
having three children attending
that school, and has been as
much Interested in all the PTA
work as have the women.
The rest of the officers are
insisting that there isn't a bit of
truth in the base rumor that
Jackson PTA can t keep a presi
dent. They just move away, or
something. One moved to Kan
sas and another to Central Point
and the last one elected. Mrs.
M. A. Putney, found she had too
heavy a schedule, what with
helping with a business and a
great Interest In church work.
It is expected that the card
(ans will flock to the lectures of
the great Oswald Jacoby, who
is coming to Medford Saturday
for two appearances. This expert
has been playing since he was
nine, claims to have mastered
all card games of every type and
is a whiz at mathematics. His
favorite card game, by the wav,
s poker.
Add Items that just couldn't
happen, but do. Confusion at tin
