CENTRAL AVE. PHONE 2-5702 POTPO URRI... The very first spring days always bring home the travelers who went south in search of the sun, relaxation and entertain ment. Sometimes the enter tain ment Sometimes the entertain tised. This was the conclusion the Gene Thorndikes and Dwight Phipps arrived at after attending the annual Gold Rush day at Wickenburg in Arizona. Both Mrs. Thorndike and Mrs. Phipps thought the parade was a fizzle, and Mrs. Thorndike adds that it wasn t nearly so colorful or interesting as the ones held in Jacksonville for the jubilee They were amused, however, at the sight of tourists panning for gold which had been "salted in piles of dirt trucked in and dumped down at strategic points. The two couples made a trip up to Roosevelt dam by the Apache trail and were stranded in a small town bv car trouble. With nothing to do until the "re lief" car came, the Thorndikes and Phipps spent the entire aft ernoon in an establishment which housed a general store, postof- fice and restaurant under one roof. Mr. Thorndike remembered that he had been wanting a new pair of shoelaces for a long time so he bought a pair, sat down on the front porch steps of the store and proceeded to put in the new ones, unconcerned over the Jibes of his wife and traveling com panions. When the Rev. George R. V. Bolster, president, rose to his feet at the meeting of Rogue Val ley Knife and Fork club Mon day night and said "it never rains but it pours" there were some who would liked to have echoed "you can say that again. The president referred to the fact that the dinner club had been forced to book two speak ers just one week apart, the sec ond large organization in the val ley to do the same thing in the same week. A quick look at the editor's calendar shows that from February 25 to March 3 there were two Knife and Fork club dinners, two Jackson County Civic Music association concerts, an annual luncheon for Kiwan ian Dames, a dinner and square dance given by Griffin Creek Mothers' club, the annual World Prayer Day of Medford Council of Church Women, a lecture by Roy McCorkel, former director of CARE for Southeastern Eu rope, and two or three events on 1 117 S.

Such over-loaded schedules apparent ly cannot be avoided, but they certainly don't add to the peace and quiet of spring. Monday's Knife-Fork dinner, of course, came purely under the heading of pleasure. Not only did Michael MacDougall fascinate us with his card tricks, but he added to the fun by having Leonard Carpenter and Max Peirce play bridge with him. It didn't matter who dealt, cut or played, Mr. MacDougall always turned up with all the high cards and all the tricks. Mrs. Edwin R. Durno also volunteered to assist and was as astounded as everyone else at the results. Coming out of the club we stopped in the entrance-way to admire a stunning wrap worn by Mrs. Royal E. Bebb. The gar ment, which came from India and may have originally been a sari, is woven of black thread and studded with hundreds of little pieces of hand-hammered silver, attached to the net-like fabric by hand. It is most unusual and one of the handsomest articles we've seen in a long time. We saw a lot of silver Tues day, too, for Kiwanian Dames presented 600 silver dollars to Girl Scouts for construction of an infirmary at Camp Low Echo. At that, 600 dollars didn't make as large a pile as we had ex pected. Mrs. Victor Milnes, who helped arrange the presentation, expressed surprise in the size, toot "Why, I had visions of money stacked way high," she said in a disappointed tone. After formal presentation and picture taking, Mrs. Marjorie Hopkins and members of Kiwan ian Dames had to re-wrap all the dollars and hustle them back to the bank. Also causing a lot of comment at the luncheon was the orchid corsage which Mrs. Jack Walker wore. The orchids, brown and spotted with, white were not only different than we had seen be fore but looked wonderful with Mrs. Walker's auburn hair and brown suit. Mrs. Walker said they were a gift from the Medford Health group. She had with her a scrap book of clippings made during the recent chest x-ray drive, and expressed satisfaction and pride with its contents and the highly satisfactory results of the drive. Mrs. Walker was county chair man for the drive. An unhappy woman came into our office last week. The un happy creature was Mrs. Lester Gilman, who can't understand why valley women don't enroll in home nursing courses which the Red Cross ' sponsors. The home nursing course is conceded by most who have taken it to be practical and useful, but in recent months it has been almost impossible to enroll a good-sized class. Mrs. Gilman, who is chairman of home nursing, tells women that the American Red Cross says nome nursing snould be a "must" for at least one person in every family, and that national civilian defense officials urge all women, ana men too, lo enroll if they aren't already trained, but still they don't enroll. "I simply can't understand it." said Mrs. Gilman earnestly. "I'm ioxa tnat in otner communities there is no trouble in keeping good-sized classes going most of the time. There must be some thing wrong with our approach to the problem." Would anyone like to offer Mrs. Gilman some suggestions on how to increase interest in home nursing classes? While she wasn't quite as per turbed as Mrs. Gilman, another Red Cross worker did express concern last week. Mm. J. p Naumes, who has been a Red Cross volunteer for almoirt 11 years, wondered why vounser women don't show more interest.' Spring Blooming MAGNOLIA TREES SKCIAL MAIL ORDER OFFER!

Mrs. Naumes, who has worked at the domiciliary at Camp White as a Grey Lady ever since it was established, said she realized that not everyone is fitted for this type of service work, but pointed out that the personal satisfaction greatly repays those who are fitted and who carry on the pro gram. Mrs. Naumes was discussing this with other Red Cross work ers last week and when someone asked her why, if she was weary after her long years of work, she did not just quit and leave the burden to younger people, she was quiet and then spoke the ot quoted words from St. Matthew: "Inasmuh as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me."
