HEARING AID DISCUSSED New York (U.R) If a hearing aid is a necessity, a woman can now wear one as part of her jewelry. A new aid looks like a pair of earrings, but actually conceals a hearing receiver. It is constructed so that what little equipment is needed can be tucked out of sight in even a simple hair-do. i .4:1 1 8 m 1 f bread is ideal because it is made from nineteen different ingredi- ents, nutritious, yet with no fats added. And it tastes so good. Everyone in the family will ask for more even if not diet-conscious. ' TODAY Sunday,' January IS, 1956 Liquor Control 1s Topic for Union Speaker The Rev. John M. Root spoke regarding liquor control legisla tion for members of the Wom en's Christian Temperance un ion when the group met Thurs day at the Girls' Community club. He brought out the fact that in this country there are now 4,589.000 chronic alcoholics and that 705,000 of this number are women. , The liquor interests, he claim ed, are making more .'alcoholics at the rate of 100,000 a year by extensive advertising. He also brought out that public senti ment against the enforcement of the liquor laws is at a low ebb aqd needs to be aroused. He sug gested petitions in churches to prohibit sale of alcoholic bever ages in grocery stores. The local chapter now has 91' members. This includes 12 hon orary members. Mrs. Elmer Gott had charge of a "talent table" made up of home cooked foods sold at the meeting. The group approved the verrture, which is a new one to the group' and will offer vari ous items from time to time.

Miss Cook explained that the resolutions committee has a very important part in Zonta Interna tional for the group formulates policies for all .clubs. She said that they could not consider the policies in respect to the U.S. alone as clubs in other countries also would be affected. Miss Cook listed a few of the topics now under study such as civil defense, geriatrics in respect to women, and health and safety of children. Miss Cook also said the committee is considering a pol icy which Zonta International may take in respect to comic books.

Enroll NOW and Earn Half of Your Tuition for January Class at Medford Beauty School NEW PHONE NUMBER 2-6155 Civil Defense Is Topic For Nurses "We must be concerned with facing realism and measuring fear," Mrs. Nova Young, con sultant nurse, medical depart ment, Oregon Civil Defense ag ency, said when she spoke Wed nesday in Medford to members of the local chapter of Oregon State Nurses association. Schools of nursing now are in cluding disaster nursing in their basic curriculum, she explained. Mrs. Young, who completed a course in November offered by the federal civil defense agency for nurses actively engaged in civil defense, emphasized that all departments are providing a reserve at the present time. "In civil defense a disaster is referred to as. when it happens rather than if it should happen." She also stated that we are all concerned with civil defense on these bases, self-preservation, evacuation, care of others and reestablishment." Mrs. Genevieve Tachella, president of OSNA, spoke to the nurses on state level activities. Special mention was made of a forum on heart disease to be sponsored by Portland private duty section of OSNA in Port land March 22. Nurses from throughout the state will attend. A refresher course also for general ' duty nurses is being sponsored by that state section and will be "conducted in var ious areas throughout the state. Miss Sally Kupillo, a new comer to this area from Syra cuse, N.Y., reemphasized the subject of civil defense training now being conducted in nursing schools. She is a recent graduate of Syracuse university and de scribed briefly the course pre sented in her class as a part of their regular training. .

IPtlpiQiriri These new inventions are wonderful. Next thing on our list of gadgets is going to be one of be carried in purse or pocket. Claude Haggard had one with Monday night, and demonstrated sitting near him. It has a little those hearing-aid devices and Mr. H. says he takes it to meetings and if the session gets too ut terly dull, he just slips the speaker on his ear and tunes in some music. ; "Of course, I get a lot of sympathy from people who think, I'm hard-of-hearing," said Mr. Haggard with a big grin, "but I don't mind that." Had some enterprising salesman been at, Monday night's meeting he could probably have sold several of the little radios, since some members we talked with would gladly have tuned the speaker out after the first few minutes of the talk. - Of course, the evening wasn't a total loss. The dinner was good, and we enjoyed talking with our table companions: Pot pourri had a "jack-pot week," as far as food went, for Wednes day night we dined at Kim's as a guest , of the chef, Lee Sheu. This Cantonese, cook, whose culinary training began in his native city as a small boy, is a master with seasoning and sauce and the amount of food consumed by his eight guests was staggering. Since everyone kept asking Lee Sheu , the name of this and that, and his imperfect English was confusing, he summoned Lui Loy Lee who translated. The menu included chicken fried in almond meal; giant black mushrooms cooked in chicken broth and stuff ed'with a mixture of chopped shrimp and pork; wun tun, which is made from- a fine dough, rather like that used for noodles, stuffed with a meat mixture and then fried in deep fat; Chinese greens with, beef; almond chow mein; fried shrimp, Kim's foo young and fried rice. There' was also a simply heavenly sweet sour sauce with Chinese onions, pineappel and other tid-bits in it and of course, the" meal ended with the traditional fortune cakes, and was complimented by cups and cups of jasmine tea. If any skeptic doubts that eight people ate as much as this, just ask the Lester or Gene Casses, " or State Policeman Bob Wievesiek and his wife, or ask, pappy. We might add here that Lee Sheu really plans this special meal for the men the four wives just sort of tag along. - , ' After dinner Lee Sheu and Lui Loy Lee called our attention to a newly decorated corner of the cafe which contains a statue of Kwan Yuen, Chinese goddess of peace, always shown seated on a lotus pedestal. It was explained that every Chinese home has a statute of Kwan Yuen. Another new bit of decor is a little mountain-side scene with water trickling through the miniature shrubs and trees. Lee Sheu, interested in guns and hunting, took care to point out the tiny animals which he had added to the mountain scene. Near the scene sits a figurine of Yin Lu Wong, or "the old man" who holds in his hand the Book of Life from which it is said he can predict all births and deaths. . The good food didn't end with Wednesday's dinner, either. Thursday night we attended the UN chapter's potluck dinner at the Harlan Bosworth home. We ate pur fill of chicken and rice, a wonderful tossed salad, and a delicious dish of little boiled onions in a thick sauce, with, two or maybe three hot rolls. The salad had thin slices of small raw zucchini which was a new salad in gredient for us, and one which we plan to try at home. About the time the table was practically bare one husband said to the other "What a meal! this every night" whereupon wouldn't either, and besides, my We can assure everyone that staff members of United States National bank are very kind indeed. Not one of them called up or wrote a letter after seeing last Sunday's picture page where the cutlines said they worked at the rival bank. Potpourri was covered with shame, for everyone had been exceptionally co operative and we even shared in brewed for the occasion. -- One line from the play "Cry, the Beloved Country" which we saw Thursday night at First Presbyterion church, will linger in our mind for a long time. This is a play about the deep and 'bitter struggle now going on in south Africa between the natives and the white men and one of the native ministers says, with emotion and fear, "When they have turned to loving, we will have turned to hating."

Unravel about an inch and a half of both ends of the yarn, moisten your forefinger and roll the two ends together in the palm of your hand. This makes a firm joining and does away with the unat tractive knot. Bacon curls make an attrac tive and tasty food garnish, serv ed hot or cold. To make, pan fry bacon but before it is cooked thoroughly, roll each slice around the tines of a fork and stand on ends to "crisp." Drain on absorbent paper before serv ing.
