Too early for apple blos

but we have some in full
bloom. In delicate cera
mic, so perfectly wrought
that they'd almost fool a
honeybee they adorn a
number of graceful trifles.
There's a high heeled
china slipper, embellished
with a single perfect ap
ple blossom. There's a
footed comport for can

bowl a cigarette set . . .
Nice for springtime gifts
or party prizes.
We have a new flexible
rubber scraper, slim and
long handled, that will
pay for itself many times
over. It will scoop out the
last bit of mayonnaise,
jelly, relish, or whatever,
from small-mouthed con

prices, even small dabs of
food soon count up.

Kiwanian Dames Present
Large Sum to Girl Scouts
Kiwanian Dames of Medford held the annual Girl Scout lunch
eon Tuesday noon at the Medford hotel, and during the event pre
sented S600 to Mrs. Marjorie Hopkins for the Girl Scout building
fund. The luncheon was held at the Medford hotel.
In accepting the money, Mrs.
Hopkins stated that it would be
used to complete the new in
firmary . started at Low Echo,
established camp, last year. In
lieu of the usual check, Mrs.
Hopkins was presented 600 sil
ver dollars which were stacked
on the speakers' table.
A review of past year's con
tributions from the group to the-
scouts was made by Mrs. Hop
kins showing that more than
$2,000 has been given to the
scouts. The project was started
in 1936, when $24 was given
for camperships. For 10 years
the club confined its gifts to
sums ranging from $35 to $50
and these were used each year
for the camperships.
When Girl Scouts established
Camp Low Echo, Kiwanian
Dames began to give increased
sums for use in building. In
1947 a gift of $100 was used to
purchase two day rooms at
Camp White which were dis
mantled and used for buildings
at Low Echo. A gift of $205 in
1948 was used to purchase two
boats for Low Echo, and in 1949
$300 was added to the fund with
which the fireplace in the north
end of the lodge was constructed.
In 1950 the gift increased to
$400 and with this the fire
pace was completed, some
shower 'equipment was pur
chased and a canoe was added
to the waterfront equipment.
The sum of $350 was given to
the scout camp in 1951 and
with this material for a new
dock was purchased and plumb
ing installed in the temporary

infirmary. This building is now
used for the caretaker and work
crews. The new infirmary start
ed last summer was begun with
lumber given by Grants Pass
firms, Mrs. Hopkins said. Addi
tional lumber is needed, flooring
for the building must be pur
chased and. equipment installed,
Mrs. Hopkins added, saying that
the project might take two or
three years to complete.
Mrs. Hopkins explained that
the money donated by Kiwanian
Dames each summer is the only
fund the camp committee has
for equipment and building. She
stated that it had been expect
ed that the annual Girl Scout
cookie sale profits could be
added to the building fund, but
that since the Community Chest
drive had fallen short of the
quota, the cookie funds must
now be applied to the operating
budget: Low Echo is now operat
ed for five weeks each summer
and 100 girls can be accommo
dated each week.

co-chairman with Mrs. Robert
Voegtly for the fund-raising
project last fall, thanked her
