SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Pre-Easter Topics Told for Eastwood; Events Announced Two new series of pre-Easter sermons will be presented at the Eastwood Baptist church, ac cording to the minister, the Rev. Willis J. Loar. The morning series will com mence Sunday at 11 a.m., under the theme, "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross." The 7:30 p.m. series will bear the title, "The Cross From the Human Side." Music will be a feature of each service, with a new choir in the process of formation. School Program In addition to the preaching services, an enlarged Sunday school program will be held at 9:45 a.m. A new Baptist Youth fellowship will be organized Sunday at 6:30 a.m. A Church Officers clinic, for all officers of the church, will be held a week from tonight, Feb. 25, to train the officers of the church in their duties. The Rev. Earl Berg, of the Oregon Baptist convention, will be the leader. The Church is also participat ing in the World Day of Pray er, and the city-wide Religious census, the latter to be held March 3 to 10 under the auspices of the Medford Ministerial as sociation. A great Missionary cavalcade from the American Baptist con vention will be held here in the Medford area March 27 to 30, with five outstanding Foreign and Home missionaries appear ing in the local church. The series of messages on "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" are, "I See the Tragedy of Sin; I See a Throne of Judg ment; I See the Meaning of Communion; I See the Mercy and Forgiveness of God; I See the Meaning of Sacrifice; I See the Price Paid for My Redemp tion." This series will be cli maxed by an Easter message, April 10, "The Coronation of Christmas." The . evening series on "The Cross From the Human Side," are "The Cross and Human For giveness; The Cross and Human Longing; The Cross and Human Relationships; The Cross and Human Fear; The Cross and Hu man Suffering; The Cross and Human Accomplishment; and The Cross of Human Trust." As We Live By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. Mew Neighbors Cold; She Misses Friendship It is certainly unpleasant to live among neighbors who seem to turn a cold shoulder to new comers. A woman writes: (Q) "Last August we moved into this neighborhood be cause the school here is con sidered excellent and we have two children of school age. Not one of my neighbors has come to call or paid any atten tion io us since we came. They speak when I meet them, but I wonder if they would if I didn't speak first. Their chil dren are friendly, enough with ours, but I don't understand their parents' attitude toward us. Several months ago an other family moved here, and the wife tells me no one has paid any attention to her either. The neighborhood where we lived before was very friendly, and I miss the companionship. Have you any solution to the problem?" (A) According to standards of the past, it was socially correct for peorjle in a neighborhood to call on a new family shortly after they moved in. But times have changed. Peo ple are much more casual m -: .a I about social con ventions than they used Dr. Huxlock to be. In fact, tney often ignore them entirely. Before concluding that your neighbors are trying to snub you, it would be wise to test out their feelings. Give a neighbor hood "at-home" some Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Invite ail of your neighbors and their children, and serve simple re freshments. If there are too many neigh bors to get into your house two successive days or two suc cessive week-ends. But be sure to send out all the invitations at the same time so that, if the neighbors compare notes, they won't find that some did not receive invitations. . This, of course, is not strictly correct. But, as the school in this new neighborhood is so good, it is worth it to do what you can to be on friendly terms with your neighbors so you can live happily where your chil dren can get a good schooling.

(U.R) House wives can save time and energy on any household task if they only will analyze and improve their way of performing it. And they don't need to be time-and-motion study experts to do it, says Mrs. AgneSy Ridley of Southern Illinois university's home economics department. Here are seven simple rules Mrs. Ridley xlrew up: . Use two hands whenever pos sible. ; ; - '. ' Arrange utensils, materials and containers close to the point of use. .. . Have work well-lighted. Sit down to work as much as possible. Use feet and other parts of the body as well as the hands in doing chores. Choose utensils and household tools designed to fit the hand. Develop a rhythm for every task and learn to make curved instead of straight-lined motions that involve sharp or sudden changes of direction. .
