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

our personal "tr do" list. 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.'

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." O.S.
