Central Point Garden Club Show
Honors Federation President .
By IRENE ANHORN
Central Point Many rem
iniscences went through the
minds of visitors to the spring
flower show of Central Point
Garden club Tuesday as they
passed by old wagon wheels and
lanterns under canvas cover and
down a trail complete with split
rail fences, manzanita and other
native shrubs and flowers.
Held in the American Legion
hall, the show honored Miss
Claire H a n 1 e y, Jacksonville,
president of the Oregon Feder
ation of Garden clubs, whose
grandparents settled in this val
ley 100 years ago. Its theme
was "The Old Stage Road."
Visitors coming via "the Old
Stage Road" neared a watering
stop for the stage coaches. This
back-drop, painted by Warren
Holbrook and members of his art
class at Crater high school, Clay
ton Brown, Richard Ralls, Blos
som Governor, Verity Day and
Judy Davis, was from a photo
graph of the Dean home on the
Stage road. The small girl in
the picture with her family is
now Mrs. Leonard Freeman, a
member of the Central Point Gar
den club. Completing the stage
was a planting of camellias and
primroses.
The next stop, Bits from Han
leyland, was in the front lobby.
Here was a setting of treasured
pieces, a chair, table with secre
tary box, hymnal and glasses,
rocker and shawl, brought by
Miss Hanley from her home.
These, used by her family dur
ing the past 100 years, were ar
ranged in front of a piece quilt
and the Hanley family tree.
Despite the wintry weather,
the exhibit of horticultural spe
cimens was crowded and several
tables of arrangements presented
the many spring flowers, daffo
dils, promroses, tulips, snow
flakes, camellias, magnolias, ger
aniums and the flowering quince,
peach, cherry, plum, forsytfiia
and heather in colorful array.
Along the end of the room "ar
rangements for the month" were
presented on TV tables, featur
ing dried arrangements, fresh
flowers and sugar flowers. Ar
rangements were displayed from
Medford and Eagle Point clubs'.
The floral arrangements were
placed in two settings "Grand
ma's Bouquets" 'and "Grandma's
Flowers Gone Modern." Drawing
much attention was a marble top-

flight of feminine fancy to breeze

coat, borders the full blown cuffs,
and ties in a bow at the neck,
reflecting the predominating col
or of the light-hearted tweed
called Spotterdot.

ped , commode, which came
around the Horn, displayed by
Crater Garden club with a mass
arrangement of spring blossoms
in the wash basin. Other antique
tables held pitchers, oil lamps
and other pioneer pieces. Of
particular interest was the 100-year-old
copper kettle belonging
to Mrs. Dean and filled with old
fashioned wall flowers.
Educational features were a
collection of pressed wild flow
ers of Jackson county, an insect
exhibit by Louis Gentner, entom
ologist, and a display of bird pic

ed the picture for conservation.
One stair was a picture of beauty
with flowers, shrubs and wild
life while the other, with burned
stumps and grasses, was desola
tion. The prize-winning poster,
"You Are the Cause," completed
the setting.-
Tiny "egg-crate" wagons rolled
along with miniature bouquets in
"Bits o' Beauty" the corner. A
large what-not filled with small
arrangements and a manzanita
corsage tree completed this cor
ner. The large shadow boxes, on
either side of the front lobby,
presented a woodland setting of
fern's, trilliums and erythron
iums, and a modern setting with
primroses. Phoenix Garden club
displayed a table completing the
theme of wild flowers.
Refreshments were served
from a tea table centered with a
stagecoach banked with blossom
ing Oregon grape and with yel
low tapers in wrought iron hold
ers. Pouring during the after
noon were Miss Hanley, Mrs.
Freeman, Mrs. A. T. Lathrop,
Mrs. J E. Vincent, Mrs. W. B.
Kincaid and Mrs C. W. Anhorn.
The small tables were arranged
with miniature oil lamps and tin
type pictures.

Much Good Eating
In Well-Cooked Hen
Say Poultry Experts
Albany, N. Y. (U.R) Poul
try people advise housewives
that a well-cooked hen in the
refrigerator can save hours of
time in meal preparation.
Some morning at home put a 5
to 7-pound hen on to stew, and
the result: the basic course for
a couple of dinners plus a sand
wich or two.
One suggested way of cooking
the hen French fashion.
Have the bird cut into large
pieces, wash them and put them
in a pot with cold water to cov
er. Add one carrot, a large on
ion studded with five or six
whole cloves, a small bay. leaf,
a few peppercorns, salt to fla
vor, a few celery tops and a
piece of parsley. Cover and
bring to a slow boil, and then
simmer. . slowly two or three
hours, or until tender to the
fork, adding water when need
ed. After' the hen has cooled in
the broth, slice the meat from
the bones and put in a separate
bowl. Strain the broth and store
in the refrigerator for use in
sauces.
From this start, the family
can have a "cook's tour of the
world" chicken a la king;
chicken tatrazzini; Spain's arroz
con polio; chicken chow mein
or chop suey; chicken in wine
for a Gallic versio, or chicken
paprica, the spicy Hungarian
dish.
And there's always chicken
and dumplings.

to defense work, the corps is
also used as an air rescue ser
