Wax Recommended for
Marble-Topped Tables
A little wax will keep marble
topped tables looking .beautiful,
according to Myrtle Carter, home
furnishings specialist at Oregon
State college.
A marble surface, especially if
it is highly polishedj will accept
very little wax, she says. But
the wax does help prevent the
accumulation of dirt and stains,
and it delays , scratches 'and
tains.
For light marble, she recom
mends a natural paste wax. And
for darker types, a colored wax.
Natural wax may be colored
with colors-in-oil. You can get
these in small tubes.
Wax the marble by placing a
small amount of wax between
several layers of cloth. Apply a
thin coat in a circular motion,
then buff the surface.
A brick can be put inside a
woolen cloth or an old piece of
carpet to be used as a buffer.
IF
' "A Wandering Minstrel I" . . . Nanki-Poo played by Gene
Brown, Ashland, rehearses his song of love with which he woos
Yum Yum, Tresa Matlock, Medford. All this is from "The Mikado."
to be presented at Southern Oregon college March 3, 4 and 5.
Modern American dress will give way to modish Oriental cos
tumes, hair-styling and make-up for the production, a college
community endeavor.

Oregon Trees
Topic for Club
In Butte Falls
Butte Falls A conservation
talk on Orego trees was given
by Mrs. Harry Dalton at the last
meeting of Butte Falls Federated
Garden clubs. Her information
was taken from "Trees to Know
in Oregon," by Charles R. Ross,
and "A Pocket Guide to Trees,"
by Rutherford Piatt.
The Douglas fir, Oregon state
tree, is not a true fir. Its scien
tific name, "pseudotsuga taxi
folia" means "false hemlock
with yew-like leaves." It is easy
to identify because of its "pitch
forks," thin three-pointed bracts
that protrude between the scales
on its cones. The middle point is
longer than the other two. In
general appearance Douglas fir
resembles the true firs and
spruces, but Douglas fir cones
hang down from the branches
and fall to the ground intact
while the cones of the true firs
stand erect on the branches and
break up into many pieces and
fall to the ground.
Douglas fir needles are soft
and usually blunt on the ends.
These firs are used extensively
for Christmas trees, as well as
supplying two-thirds of the tim
ber cut in the northwest. The
Ponderosa pine is Oregon's num
ber two tree. Other useful trees
are sugar pine, lodge pole pine,
Port Orford cedar, western red
cedar, Sitka spruce, western
juniper and redwoods.
Oregon also has "the unique
four," namely the Oregon myr
tle, madrone, golden chinquapin
and the tanbark oak.
Members were asked to com
pete in a quiz concerning the
identification of shrubs and trees
and the spelling of flowers.
Mrs. Ralph Conard read an ar
ticle by Jessie Ash Arndt telling
of the necessity of planned plant
ings of gardens for the most sat
isfaction. Suggested were "rich
ness, through abundance in the
planting; freshness through or
der; strength through pattern
and design; gaiety through hos
pitality with many sitting places',
eating and bathing for the birds,
places for games and open places.
Mrs. Clay Conley spoke on the
accomplishments in the develop
ment of the many varieties of
pansy. A newcomer, the Felix,
has dark "cat whisker" stripes
radiating from the center in a
yellow background instead of
the usual velvety blotch in the
throat. This is a start in a new
design in pansies.
A tour of the green house at
the home of the hostess revealed
an array of beautiful blooms in
the midst of winter weather.
Guests were Mrs. Brittian Ash,
Mrs. Cecil Taunton, Mrs. Leslie
Casey, and Mrs. Leonard Rich
man, Butte Falls.
Refreshments were served by
the hostess, Mrs. Elga Abbott.

When using nylon thread for
hand sewing, cut and use shorter
lengths than when hand sewing
with cotton. Cut the thread,
don't break it at the end of the
seam. It is easier to thread a
needle with a cut thread. ..
