Speaker Explains
Show Practices
For Phoenix Club
Phoenix Mrs. R. T. Nichol
spoke for a meeting of Phoenix
Garden club March 11 on "Flow
er show practices and the pres
ervation of cut flowers." Mrs.
Nichol said that it is difficult to
get flowers to a show in good
condition, and suggested that a
box be used, placing the stems
of flowers toward the center.
She also suggested that ice
cubes could be used to help keep
the flowers fresh, and that plas
ticene bags could cover the
blooms. Ice cubes can also be
used in a container with an ar
rangement, instead of water
which spills easily. She also gave
a number of suggestions on how
to make a show more pleasing
to all visitors.
Mrs. Cora True, Ashland, then
spoke on the preservation of ma
terials to be used in dried ar
rangements, explaining that dif
ferent shades can be attained by
picking the materials at differ
ent stages of development. She
also explained different meth
ods of coloring the materials, by
dusting, dipping or painting.
Mrs. Charles Hockersmith,
flower show chairman, named
some of her committee chairmen
as follows: Staging, Mrs. A. C.
Lewis; classification, Mrs. L. O.

Dr. Rosengrant has made two
trips around the world, and in

a larger world because of the

ing between nations.

To Attend Meeting
Central Point The child guid
ance study group of Central
Point Parent-Teacher association
has announced that it will join
other child study groups in at
tending the Jackson county
child guidance group meeting
Wednesday, March 16. The meet
ing is set for 10 a.m. at the
YMCA.
Mrs. O. T. Wilson, chairman
of the Central Point group, asks j
that all mothers attend if pos-l
People all over the world
have their eyes turned toward
America, according to Dr. Ros
engrant. They constantly in
quire what and how America
is doing and form their impres
sions of us accordingly, the
speaker said. In spite of this,
many Americans in foreign
countries persist in "throwing
their weight around," are pat
ronizing, and are far too im
patient which is not at all good,
he added. "Peace is a neces
sity, and goodness is the only
practical idea that will work
wherever you go," continued
Dr. Rosengrant.
One of the most frightening
results of his travels was when
he came back into the United
States and saw. the indifference
of the people and their lack of
desire to belong to the human
race, Dr. Rosengrant said. He
stated that "we are a part of the
universal family whether we
like it or not."
In closing, Dr. Rosengrant
said that there will be no peace
in the world unless the hearts
and minds of the people find
their way to Christ and use His
principals and practices in their
daily living.
Dr. D. Kirkland West, pastor
of First Presbyterian church of
Medford, spoke briefly before
he introduced Dr. Rosengrant to
the audience, who was his guest
for the evening. Dr. West urg
ed parents to attend the church
of their choosing, and partici
pate in its activities if they wish
a Christian life for their chil
dren. According to him. a sur
vey has shown that a great per
centge of children of parents
who do not attend church stop

The meeting was opened by
the ; presentation of colors by
Mrs. John Lamberty's Brownie
Troop No. 8, followed by the
invocation which was given by
Mrs. Rex Nicodemus, vice-president
of Jackson PTA. - .
The instrumental department
of the school presented music
for the program. The band, un
der the direction of Mrs. Vir
ginia Wetserfield, presented two
numbers followed by a trom
bone solo by Billy Hannaford.
Miss Audrey Brist presented
four violinists from the school
orchestra. They were Betty
Kyker, Sharon Smith, Lennie
Jacobs and Ruth Ann Milligan.
The four played several selec
tions and Betty Kyker played a
solo.
Robert Baccus, principal of
Jackson school, explained to the
parents the regulations concern
ing the children coming into the
building when school is not in
session. He told them that the
children are kept on the play
ground during good weather un
til school takes up unless there
is some legitimate reason for
their being inside, but in in
clement weather they are al
ways allowed to be in the build
ing. It was Mr. Baccus' feeling
that there had been a misun
derstanding on the part of some
of the parents regarding these
regulations.
At the close of the program,
Mrs. Paul Chinn, hospitality
chairman, invited the group to
