Cashmere Capes t Fashion at Resort Nassau, Bahamas Here In the Bahamas, the fad for wearing eashmere sweaters In the manner of capes has fathered the cash mere cape. These are Imported from Scot land and made by the makers of famous Scotch cashmere sweat ers. Designed in collarless, shoulder-contoured slim lines, and ending just below the elbow, they are extremely flattering to the average figure. Some are embroidered, here in Nassau, where the old art of fine handiwork is still practiced, with "jewel" borders of seashells combined with synthetic pearls or rhinestones or sequins.

EACH GARMENT CLEANED ON THIS WEEK'S SPECIAL Will Bo MOTH PROOFED FREE OF CHARGE Including Drapes and Blankets LITTLEFIELD DRIVE-IN CLEANERS 1816 West Main Phona 2-5111 Outdoor time is really here. The time for lying on the grass and looking up at the sky, the time for Sunday morning break fast on the patio, with brown pancakes cooking on the grill and the smell of coffee in the air, the time for watching the masses of bright blossoms in yards and garden and for pick ing rosebuds in the early morn ing. It's the time for long, warm days and cool evenings with bright stars, for swimming par ties and picnics, the time of the year when it's downright won derful to live in a place like the Rogue valley. Providence must watch over people like us who try to see all the interesting sights along the road while driving to and from. For instance, there the field of bright red clover on the hill, the copper and yellow roses in bloom in the Daugherty yard on King's highway and the red roses on a trellis in a yard on Kings' street. Just as sweet was the little girl, still wearing her long white nightgown and out on the street to tell brother good-bye before he went to school. Striking a sour note in the sunny morning were the two smartly-dressed good-looking young men who nonchalantly walked out into the street, ignoring the red light, and strolled slowly across, deep in conversation, while the impatient motorists gave them black looks. Mrs. Ethelyn M. Kemp will I Decome a Driae today. Mrs. I Kemp, who has passed her sev- nntlntU ki-UJ... ...Ml cuuckii uuuiuajr, will many Dow Cravens, also past 70 whom she had not seen since 1895. There's a story behind this wedding today. Mrs. Kemp and Mr. uravens were children to gether, but when they grew up, each fell in love and married someone else. Many, many years went by, and for a great deal of this time they not only did not see one another, but did not know where the other was liv ing, or what life had brought to the childhood friend. Then death took the partner of each, and the time came when Mrs. Kemp and Mr. Cravens beaan to exchange Christmas cards, and to write letters from time to time. They wrote more freauent- ly, and finally Mr. Cravens pro posed that they marry. Mrs. Kemp agreed, and the wedding is being held today in the home of one of Mrs. Kemp's grandsons here in Medford. Mr. Craven was for 28 years a director of recreation for youth in the northeast Missouri district for the Methodist church and is described as a man "who likes to do things for other DeoDle. He has purchased the 80-acre farm and 13-room house where Mrs. Kemp lived as a young woman and where her two chil dren were born, and the newly- weas wiu return to Missouri to live. Mrs. Kemp, who has four grandchildren, has lived near Medford for 22 years. Mr. Crav ens has five grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. We've added a P.S. to our New Year's resolutions. After listening to several different women explain last week that they were so busy with window washing, gardeners, sewing, club meetings, shopping, parties etc., etc., that they simply couldn't bring down their contributions for Sunday's paper and would we please take it over the phone or at least give them until Satur day morning, we decided to quit telling people how busy we are. " For we've discovered a great truth every woman thinks she works harder than everyone else. and that she is busier than every one else. Mrs. M. F. Rutherford and Potpourri decided while talking at a social gathering Tuesday night that high school girls are prettier now than they were -in our day at least, they look pret tier. "They take better care of their hair, and wear it so attrac tively," Mrs. Rutherford decided "and their clothes are prettier than when I was a girl." The next day Mrs. Bruno Pel legrini agreed with that idea saying she thought high school girls, wearing their brightly flowered skirts and white blouses looked like flowers. "1 don't believe half the stories I hear about how sophisticated girls are . now" Mrs. Pellegrini said with her interesting accent. I believe that for the most part, they're just as sweet and nice as they were In years gone by." Looking around at the wo men's golf tournament Thursday, we decided that it s not only the high school girls who look pret tier nowadays. Mother and grandmother are just as good looking and well dressed. There was certainly a variety of clothing and styles at the clubhouse and on the course. There was denim in several shades, crash and linens, seer sucker and all manner of bright, summer cottons. Mrs. Ray Lar son, who changed into an all- white suit, came around to in quire if we were enjoying the luncheon and we learned that the delicious sea-food salad was made from one of her recipes Mrs. Larson and Mrs. Guy Phetteplace had also arranged the table bouquets of yellow ana blue blossoms, and Mrs. Phette place wore a gay yellow sun dress. Rpvpral mnnth aso we heard that if the nylon hose were put in the refrigerator ana irozen for several' days, they'd wear lnnoor Ahnnt the time we de cided to try this, along comes a new release from the extension service which says it isn't true. According to the extension service, there's nothing new in the freezing idea, because the pnmnnnips who make nylon yarn carried on experiments long ago to find out li ireezing wuuiu strengthen the yarn, and found that it rfirtn't The extension ser vice added that blends of nylon material should be treated as u they were made entirely of ny lon, and added an emphatic "and don't freeze 'em."
