Women Travel Far In Bargain Hunting New York 'U.R) To a wo man, a bargin is a bargain no matter how far she must travel to find it Women's Wear Daily, a trade publication, reported this one ex ample: Twenty women from Schnec tady, N. Y., last year traveled 19 miles to Troy, a neighboring but larger town, to attend a city-wide sale sponsored by the Greater Troy Chamber of Commerce. They were so happy with their findings that on their return home they voted to save $1 apiece each week toward this year's event. The group returned this year and had a field day spending their $1,000 bankroll. Former Resident Describes Visit to Disneyland Park Most synthetic fabrics ravel easily, so seams should be bound or otherwise finished. With the closing of schools for the summer season and the ad vent of the vacation season, many valley families will be making trips to southern Cali fornia. With this in mind, a for mer Medford resident, Mrs. John Dunn, recently wrote The Mail Tribune her impressions of the new amusement park, Dis neyland, at Anaheim in the Los Angeles area. Mrs. Dunn is the former Miss Joy Finch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ruel Finch, 794 Waverly street. She and her husband and family live at Redlands, Calif., and the group recently made a trip to .the entertainment park. Mr. Dunn is principal of the Dunlap Elementary school at Redlands where they have lived for nearly six years. They have two children, a son. Kerry, 3. and a daughter, Jackie, age 14 months. Mrs. Dunn opens her letter by writing, "As we walked through the entrance under a bridge over which the Santa Fe and Disney land Railroad ran. we saw Town Square of Disneyland." She described the square, say ing it is surrounded by typical city buildings of the 1890 s, in cluding a fire department and opera house, and for the comfort of visitors there are park benches on grassy plots and beds of flowers. Horsedrawn street cars, fire engines and sur reys are driven through the square and there are "shops" in culding a Disneyland emporium, a wooden Indian which pro- 11 iMftsryfy .tl '..Wl ..,.4...'- Hs4-) - 7. i 1 Father's Day is June 17 f auie turn liiMiifaJub&fcr 7?

The penny ar cade and shooting gallery draw large crowds. A band marches through the streets and at times are on horse back on the King Arthur carou sel. In Tahitian villages "natives" weave baskets and make other souvenirs for tourists. "Congo Queen" is the name of an "ex plorer's boat" which travels through tropical rivers in Afri ca, Asia, South America and Australia. Life - like crocodiles, hippopotomis, lions, and head- hunters add to the thrills of the 10-minute ride. Davy Crockett's frontierland is reached through a large log gate and Davy Crockett and Mike Fink impersonators oper ate keel-boats on which tourists can ride for a nominal fee. In the town park is a Dixie land Jazz band, and a boat nam ed "Mark Twain," a 105-foot sternwheeler also furnishes rides down the Mississippi river. Oth er rides are available including ones on a Conestoga covered wagon through the painted des ert and Indian country, a stage coach ride, and a ride in the cat tle cars of Disneyland "and Santa Fe Railroad freight train. Fantasyland is a favorite of the children and here there are drawbridges which span a moat in which swans and geese float lazily and a castle where Sleep ing Beauty slumbers peacefully. and where one is invited to lose ! himself in the magic of fantasy. The King Arthur carousel has no two horses alike and there are about 80. Tomorrowland in cludes a Space Station X-l and a 20-minute ride takes visitors on a rocket to the moon. Minia ture automobiles can be driven on freeways of the future and there is a "20.000 Leagues under the Sea" exhibit, the actual set used in a moving picture. Food is served in a superautomatical- ly controlled invention at the Space bar. Exhibits of science' and indus try also are to be viewed in Tomorrowland. Mrs. Dunn explained that readers probably will be inter ested in the cost of such a day. For their family they spent just under $10, and not $20 to $30 as they had expected it would be. Tickets for admittance are $1.50 for children; $2 for stu dents and $2.50 for adults. The tickets include eight rides or ex hibits for which the individual prices range from 10 cents to 50 cents, so the ticket books are considered a bargain. There are hot dog and milkshake stands and good restaurants. Mrs. Dunn pointed out that she believes those who complain of fantastic costs of visiting Disneyland must include costly souvenir-buying, and expensive meals. 4 Indian Education To Be Guild Topic Westminster guild, business women's organization of First Presbyterian church, will meet Monday June 4, in the fireplace room at the church.
