Of BPWC for Year
Reviewing the past year, mem
ber! of the Medford Business
and Professional Women's club
point out that in addition to the
usual schedule of meetings and
projects this past year, one of the
main accomplishments of the
group was raising of funds for a
new $500 scholarship.
The scholarship was awarded
at graduation to two senior
girls. Miss Fat Benton and Miss
Marian Mitchell. Both girls had
outstanding scholarship records,
it was stated, and choice between
them was found difficult. They
will share equally in the scholar
shins.
Both Dlan to attend Southern
Oregon college in Ashland. Miss
Benton plans to prepare tor a
teachine career in the field of
mathematics and Miss Mitchell
to major in commercial courses.
The fund was raised through
the sprine scholarship carnival,
held February 15 in the armory,
and the club expresses its appre
ciation for the "generous and
wholehearted support of the mer
chants and townspeople at that
time."
It was said that giving the
award marks the culmination of
a most successful BPWC year
under the leadership of Mrs.
Bertha Haskins, retiring presi
dent. The new president, Mrs.
Olivia Claypool, has stated that
a similar project will be planned
for her term since it Is the inten
tion of the club to continue the
scholarship award as a yearly
project.

Lady Lions Fashion Show
Highlight of Convention
Women seem always to enjoy a fashion show, and the one
planned by Medford Lady Lions for the pleasure of delegates
attending the annual convention of Lady Lions proved to be one
of the highlights of the session. It followed a luncheon at the
Rogue Valley Country club Monday noon, and was an interesting
combination of present and past fashions.
Models were Lady Lions and
their daughters, and opening the
show Was Miss Diane Fries wear
ing a sun dress brought from
Hawaii. It was of white, with de
sign of green. Another Hawaiian
sports' ensemble was modeled by
Miss Phyllis Neely, who wore
peddle pushers of Fuji silk with
Camisa coat of matching fabric.
These also were of white and
green.
Mrs. M. J. Maulsby modeled a
black nylon taffeta swim suit
with side lacing, and a white
terry-cloth beach coat, while
Mrs. William Bacon afforded a
contrast by appearing in a 1900
bathing suit. This modest little
black outfit had knee-1 e n g t h
pantaloons gathered just below
the knee, a short-sleeved middy
blouse top and was worn with a
ruffled bathing cap and stock
ings with white ruffles around
the top.
An aquamarine colored after
noon dress with matching bolero
jacket was worn by Mrs. Robert
Morris and Mrs. Larry Schade
Jr., followed her on the pro
gram wearing an heirloom flan
nel and lace dress of egg-shell
color with high neck, tight
sleeves and many, many buttons.
Mrs. Schade carried a black satin
parasol and wore black shoes of
the same period as the dress.
Mrs. Arlon Skinner appeared
in a frock of tapestry rose Pima
cloth, a sheer cotton, with plaid
skirt and a velvet belt, the use
of velvet with cotton being one
of this season's newest fashions.
She was followed by Mrs. L. J.
Cox wearing a cotton print with
black lace trim that was doubt
less very fashionable in the days
of ' My Merry Oldsmobile,"
which was the song Abby Green
played as Mrs. Cox paraded
among the luncheon tables.
Mrs. Tom Flynn modeled a
classic shirtmaker type dress of
rose colored Salonika and in
contrast with this present day
style Mrs. Alvin Perkins appear
ed in an old-fashioned afternoon
gown of beige and black moire
worn with a big picture hat with
long plume. When Mrs. Perkins
raised the hem of this frock a
little she revealed striped hose
and high-laced shoes. She also
carried an heirloom purse, an
alligator bag more than 100
years old belonging to Mrs.
Flynn.
Another gown which brought
exclamations from the audience
was a chintz formal dress model
ed by Mrs. Skinner. Red straw
berries were printed on a black
background and the belt was of
red velvet.
A dress from the early '20s
was worn by Mrs. David Wil
liams, the frock being eggshell
taffeta with points of black vel
vet on the skirt.
Miss Neely then modeled a
dress of the new "theater"
length of brown and white em
bossed organdy with hat to
match. She was followed in the
fashion parade by Mrs. Schade
wearing a gown from the era of
"flappers" with shingled hair,
the dress being a black chiffon,
heavily beaded. The cloche she
wore, however, was not unlike
those shown this spring.
Mrs. Maulsby modeled a blue
evening gown of lace and mar
quisette with a little capelet to
cover the shoulders and Jeannie
Green, the club soloist, modeled
a polka dot afternoon dress of
pure silk crepe as she sang sev
eral songs.

The show closed with wedding
dresses of long ago and today.
Mrs. J. W. Wickman was the
bride of yesterday, wearing her
mother's wedding gown, 65 years
old, of grey crepe made with a
close-fitting bodice and a bustle.
Mrs. Williams was the bride
groom wearing "white tie and
tails" and a curling mustache.
For the final scene of the show
Miss Fries wore a bride's dress
of white marquisette with a
quaint little bonnet holding an
illusion veil. Mrs. Morris wore
a maid-of-honor's gown of pink
marquisette and the bridesmaid's
frocks of aquamarine marquis
ette were worn by Mrs. Skinner
and Miss Neeley. Their head
dresses were of horsehair braid.
Present-day gowns were from
Burleson's store, and Leonard's
Flower shop provided bouquets
for the bridal scene.
Mrs. Jack Ward was commen
tator and the luncheon and show
had been planned by a commit
tee headed by Mrs. Larry Neeley.
