More than 6700 Oregon citi zens are shut m tnis Yuletide season and all other seasons at the three institutions the State of Oregon operates for the mentally ill and the retarded. An ' association spokesman points out that the state provides food and clothing and much helpful treatment, but that for most of these people, there can be no happier and stimulating treatment than to know that they are remembered and wish ed well bv their fellow man- To make sure that these in dividuals know they are re membered as people not as statistics in a legislative budget the Oregon Mental Health as sociation asks that more fortun ate Oregonians give personally wrapped' gifts to brighten their Christmas. It is suggested to clubs whose members exchange gifts that this year they take a gift for a mental patient instead. Suggest ed types of gifts are packages of ready mix cakes, etc., toilet and cosmetic articles, clothing, tobacco, cards, games, toys, yarns, and books.

Now A copy of "Behind the Bur den," a book of verse and prose vignettes by Mildred Allen Jeffery, has been presented by the author to the Medford Pub lic library. Mrs. Jeffery, 521 Mayette street, is not a stranger to Rogue valley readers since many of her selections have pre viously been published in period icals, including "The King's Business," "The Gospel Messen ger," and "The Upper Room." The new publication by Pageant Press, however, brings them to gether for the first time, along with new material. "It is a rare book," says one reviewer, "encompassing as it does the poems of inspiration and faith written by a mature woman possessing to an- unusual degree an overwhelming love of mankind, but showing, too, the housewife who finds in her faith a solution for everyday prob lems." Several of the verses will be read with especial interest at this season of the year, since they pertain to Christmas and Advent. One is a sonnet to Mary. Mrs. Jeffery comes from pio neer stock her graet-grand- mother was, in fact, the model for the statue of the "Pioneer Mother" which stands on the campus of the University of Ore gon in Eugene. She has been writing verse since her school days. Demonstration .

Expert on Textiles Gives Hints on Care Of Women's Hosiery East Lansing, Mich. (U.R) Get more mileage from your ho siery by giving it proper care. Keep stockings in a smooth container, with each pair sep arate, advises Cecilia Roach of Michigan State Universtity's tex tiles department. Lined hosiery boxes prevent snagging. Rinse new stockings before wearing, and wash them after each day's wear. This helps hosiery to keep its shape and prevents damage from perspiration. Worn shoe linings, rough edges on shoes or shoe buckles play havoc with hose. If you find a snag before it becomes a run, pull the thread inside where it's less likely to catch. Sometimes you can keep a small hole from growing by mending it with yarn raveled from a worn stocking. Keep a few such ravelings rolled on a spool in your mending bas ket. Dinner for Staff .

Its fortified with calcium, iron and vitamins A, D and B-com-plex. And the Indian Institute of Science, which developed the new food, says it's cheaper than rice.

One ton of the mixture is being pro duced for "field trials" in scat tered sections of India. 1 Announce Speaker For Women's Day ".
