Rogue River Club Announces Tour; Program Given Rogue River A tour of an iris garden at their next meet- ing was planned by Rogue River Garden club women when they met April 19. The group is to meet at 11 a.m. at the home of Mrs. William Krauss and from there they will go to the home of Mrs. H. D. Weed. Those attend ing should take sack lunches and dessert and coffee will be served at the Weed home. Among the guests at the re cent meeting was Mrs. Harry Rose, a former president of the club and a former chairman of the Oregon State Blue Star Me morial group. At the meeting she exhibited a geraton wax flower which she explained is native to Australia and which was brought from southern Califor nia. Mrs. E. W. Shock gave a re port on a recent flower show for which she was chairman. She stated that 143 awards had been made. Judges for the event were Mrs. Robert Nichols, Mrs. EI- wood Kendall and Mrs. Robert Roark. the latter being a stu dent judge. Mrs. Everett Lapham gave a program on wildf lowers at the April 19 meeting and exhibited several varieties. They were erythronmm or dogtooth violet. dwarf trillium or wake robin, friliilaria, birdsbill, which is a members of the primrose family, and one of the first wildflowers to appear, and red currant. She explained that the red currant should not be planted in gardens because it is a carrier of blister rust and attacks conifers. Among the garden tips given at the meeting were ones which suggested that chrysanthemums be pinched back until July to keep tbem from becoming strag gly, and suggestions for keeping cut flowers longer. Bouquets should be kept cool but out cf drafts, it was explained. First stems should be cut off about an inch and placed in water of 110 degrees for about 30 min utes to drive out air bubbles, and each day stems should be cut off, or commercial preserva tives may be used. The purpose of either cutting or preserva tives is to prevent bacteria from plugging the stems. Hostesses were Mrs. Herbert Brooks, Mrs. Marie Terpenning, Mrs. John Breeding and Mrs. Adolph Range. The meeting was held at the Civic Improvement club.

April 24. 19S5 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUKE NIKE Lose Weight With Scientific Snacks Hollywood (U.R) Go ahead and eat between meals, you weight-watchers. But nibble "scientifically.". "". ' None other than a health and nutrition expert advises those trying ' to lose weight to snack between the three regular meal periods. It cuts "down hunger, and the dieter is likely to eat less at each of the "three squares." But you have to make sure you are not what Dr. Frederick J. Stare of Harvard University calls a "common nibbler." . - Stare, head of the department of nutrition, Harvard School of Public Health, defined the two types of nibbling during a recent (Swift and Co.) food conference here. "A scientific nibbler has a part of the . main meal between meals," said Stare. 4,It may be a piece of fruit at 11 in the morn ing, instead of with lunch; a glass of milk saved from supper and drunk before retiring. - : , "He or she may eat as many as six or seven times a day. But the nibble must be part of what should have been eaten at meals, not as an extra. This is scientific snacking. The whole aim," said the nu tritionist, "is to decrease the number of calories eaten in a 24 hour period. The right type of nibbling . makes .it easier for some dieters to do just thai." Political Parties Work for Support of Women in 1956 By PATRICIA WIGGINS United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) The old saw that there is a woman be hind every famous man is as out dated as last year's spring bon net. Top politicians in the nation's capital say that, in the words of comedian George Gobel, a man "can't hardly" be elected to pub lic office anymore without lots of women backing him. Sen. Leverett Saltonstall (It Mass.) puts it most succinctly when he says "women aren't 'mere' any more." BONNIE TARTAN 'i' -."..,u'g ii jT'rnjCiwiiuiwuiiwiiiiwii in A bonnie lad is ready for action in a bonnie Tartan plaid suit. His cotton jacket and- walking shorts are crease resistant and treated with Zelan durable water and spot re pellent. The treated cotton is easy to keep clean and fresh looking. A young man can pick his favorite Tartan, for the cotton suit is made in the Black Watch, MacDonald, and MacMuse plaids. Leaders of both political par ties, aware of the role the wom en's vote had in election of Presi dent Eisenhower in 1952, already are campaigning for the petticoat vote in '56. A good example of the new approach a recent three-day board of directors meeting of the Federation of Republican Wom en. The Republican National Committee didn't line up just women politicians around Wash ington to talk to the GOP group. Matter of fact, there were only two women on the program Mrs. Mamie Eisenhower and Miss Bertha Adkins, head of the women's division of the commit tee. " The visitors all 75 of them got a handshake and chat with Mr. Eisenhower and briefings from three top-level White House assistants, three cabinet officers, more undersecretaries, the chair men of the Senate and House campaign committees, the chair man of the Republican policy committee and other big-wigs more accustomed to smoke than to perfume-filled rooms. Major Role Here are some of the bon mots tossed the ladies' way: Presidential assistant Howard Pyle "Given the proper collec tion of dedicated women you can elect anyone to anything. As long as women work shoulder to shoulder, digging in, you can't beat 'em." , " Rep. Richard Simpson (R-Pa.) chairman of the GOP's congres sional campaign committee Women have a "major" part to play in 1956. He urged women to do more about urging good candidates to run . . . "women can choose men; you know they do it all their lives." PILLS CAN7TCURE CANCER No cancer has ever been cured by pills or powders, by quacks or "wonder doctors," the Ameri can Cancer Society says and ur ges all cancer patients to seek competent medical help.
