Homemakers Now Busy Hanging Wallpaper New York (U.R) Home- makers these days are busier than the proverbial one-armed paperhanger hanging paper. The wallpaper industry says its product is playing an ever increasing role in home decorat ing used in the main, in three ways. To cover all four walls, to contrast with one or more paint ed walls, or to coordinate with matching fabrics. This spring's patterns are quieter," the Wallpaper Infor mation bureau-said. There still are some of the splashy florals in the various manufacturers' lines, but the accent is on the more subdued and smaller pattern. Muted backgrounds and the soft pastels dominate in the new papers. The bureau said the new greens are lighter; the browns range from the light cocoa and mocha to an infinite number of warm beige tones. Yellows are popular, ranging all the way from the palest tone to the burnished gold shades. Area rugs have gone glamor ous with a vengeance, A new group of such rugs features de signs worked in silver and gold metallic yarns. The yarns used in the rugs are said to be non tarnishing and give the rugs a richly modern look. Make Your Yard Less Work -More Fun For Father!

Electricity Does The Work 2195 71" n "T29 DeLuxe MODEL 95 LOWEST PRICES FOR HIGHEST QUALITY 53 SPECIALISTS IN HOME WA RES I Free Parking Free Delivery Potpourri Mayor Earl Miller, who awarded prizes at the second annual show of Medford Rose society last Saturday night, couldn't resist a bit of humor. Thejmayor was being assisted by the two co chairmen of the show, Mrs. W. R. Peabody and Mrs. George Rena ker, and as he read the names of the winners, one of the chairmen would present the prize. It so happened that both had won prizes, so Mrs. Peabody cere moniously presented Mrs. Renaker her prize, and Mrs. 'Renaker returned the gesture later. The mayor then stopped and with a grin said, "Looks to me like you two ladies are just exchanging gifts here." Touring the show. Potpourri noticed that after being on exhibit all day, some of the roses were still fresh and crisp, while others were in various stages of collapse. Among those looking their best were the beautiful single pink Dainty Bess, one of our, favorites, which we have always found to be rather fragile. Mrs. Ernest Barnes, who won two prizes for arrangements and who used Dainty Bess in one, says she observes the practice of picking her blossoms the night before the show and immersing the stems in water up to the petals for four or five hours. Some growers leave them in water overnight, we've heard. The flowers will then stay crisp for a much longer period. Mrs. Bailies' first prize winner was of Mermaid roses, large single whites of great beauty, and variegated ivy in a chartreuse green container. Another outstanding arrangement, not entered in the show, was the one Mrs. L. G. Gentner had made for the tea table. It was of Pink Picture roses and pale Pink Corol Bells. Mrs. Gaston FIoux had also used pink roses and the pink Corol Bells in her prize-winning arrangement, putting them in a silver bowl with plum leaves. The flowers at the tea which Mrs,. Hanley Heffernan gave for Mrs. Wallace Haskins last Sunday were also very beautiful, but they could hardly be otherwise, coming from the Hanley gardens. Big pink peonies filled a bowl in the living room, and the tea table was centered with pink carnations and blue love-in-a-mist. Single pink and white peonies attracted much comment. When Mrs. William Salade took her turn at pouring, her frock and hat matched the tea table appointments. Mrs. Salade, a lovely blonde woman, wore a pink dress with one of the new large hats in pink. Guests attending the tea not only enjoyed the hospitality of Mrs. Heffernan and her mother, Mrs. Edward B. Hanley, but many strolled through the large gardens. Potpourri made the tour of the gardens in the company of the Kenneth Coons, our "young mar rieds", Mrs. Paul R. Smith and Mrs. L. G. Frink. When Mrs. Frink wondered why Potpourri didn't write an article about the outstand ing gardens, we were glad to be able to say that we had, only last year, and later when Elliott Becken asked the same question, we gave him the same answer. Like many a newspaper reporter has said in the past, we can only write and publish the stories, we can't guarantee that our subscribers will read them! 1 True to her promise, Mrs. Hanley had ready for us a little rose bush which came from her old-fashioned garden which she calls "the clearing." It is one of the sweet little roses called Harrison's yellow. We've wanted one for years, because one of these pioneer rose bushes grew iri the yard of the family home at Lebam, Wash., where Potpourri lived as a child. Mrs. Hanley warned that it spreads and spreads, so we put in "out back" close to the pasture fence. On her way out to get the rose bush, Mrs. Henley stopped to show us a big piece of walnut wood with an old stone pestle buried in it. Mrs. Hanley plans to always keep the wood and stone, because of the story behind it. Years ago when she and her husband were young, Mr. Hanley found the pestle, a relic left from Indian days, in one of the fields. Just at that time a minor emergency arose, and he laid it in the fork of a young walnut tree, and then forgot il. Years and years passed, and the tree had to be cut down. When workmen were sawing and splitting the trunk, they found the pestle, with the wood grown around it. ' Another gift last week brought back the past, too. The young marrieds brought Potpourri a jug of wild blackberry .syrup, made in Portland. Actually, it is really a thin jelly, and it comes from the mouth of the jar in gurgles and gluggs instead of pouring. And it is heavenly stuff, with the familiar wild flavor of the jelly mother used to make when we lived in Lebam. Served on hot buckwheat pancakes, it is food for the gods.

Story from New York: The well-known hair-stylist, Guil laume of Paris, visited the United States for a couple of weeks to set up a partnership with the firm of Marcel of New York. Guillaume said he returns to France with two memories "Ameri can women's beautiful long, long legs . . . and their tense, tense faces." O. S. Women Now I (TAILED AH1 Want Colors That 'Run' By GAY PAULEY U. P. Staff Correspondent New York (U.R) The Amer ican woman, who for years has demanded colors that won't "run," now deliberately buys those that will. She and her family have taken to the Oriental fabric Madras, which fades, runs or "bleeds" whatever term you prefer for a material in no way colorfast. Some manufacturers even go so far as to guarantee the bleed ing.. Madras in its original form is ! a sturdy cotton 'material, hand- woven by natives of Madras, a tropical city in southeastern India. It is brilliantly colored, with anywhere from two to 10 shades combined. The natives use vege table dyes which run, causing a change in the pattern each time a garment is laundered. Tradi tionally, Madras comes in plaid or stripe design. Although around a long time, Madras only began to catch on in U. S. markets nationally a couple of years ago, according to the Government of India Trade Center in New York. Now, its use for both men's and women's sportswear is booming and the center estimates that this year from 500,000 to 1,000,000 yards will be imported. Madras Jackets Color and design of Madras also are being copied by Amer ican and British textile man ufacturers one firm calls the copy a "true-to-Madras." The copies are made up not only in cotton but silks and synthetics, and unlike the original usually ! are colorfast. Some of the bolder of the men's wear manufacturers use Madras for dinner jackets, cum merbunds and ties. But this sum mer, you'll see most of it in men's walking shorts, slacks, jackets and bathing trunk and shirt sets. Claire McCardell, who was one of the first top designers to use the Madras, billed her first numbers "made to fade. She believes the fabric became pop ular because women were tired of so many fancy finishes on cot tons. They went back to na ture." Said Miss McCardell. "Madras has snob appeal," said William Doniger, vice-pres ident of McGregor-Doniger, a mens' wear firm. "It's been seen for years, you know, at Palm Beach and other watering places." Whatever the reason, its na tional popularity has amazed some of its originators. Ann Win ter, a spokesman for the trade center, said that in India, Madras is a peasant fabric, usually made into a Iungi a sarong-like garment worn by, men. "The Indians look at what we American do with it, and think we're crazy," she said. Sunday 11 a.m. Medford Trail Riders play day. Fair grounds.

One expert on teen-ager habits and interests reports that the boys are taking up cooking. Lester Rand, president of the Youth Research institute, said that "five years ago, asking a teenage boy if he could cook . . . produced a derisive answer. Those were fighting words. Now a lot of them boast of their culinary skills." "They haven't gone soft," said Rand. He credited this culinary interest to several things one of them, the fact that the bbys see their fathers in the kitchen help ing out these days. "We have found that the most ardent teen cooks come from homes where Pop already is do mestically broken in, said Rand He said there is currently a strong accent on male cooking. President Eisenhower's skills in this direction are well publiciz ed, and thus the boys "feel it's O.K." Outdoor cooking, with the man presiding at the barbecue, shows increasing popularity. And with so many mbthers working out side the home, the teen-agers have to rustle up their own meals frequently. New York !U.R) Ben Reig, the New York manufacturer- designer who won this year's Cotton Award, gives this defini tion of the well-dressed woman: I a woman who wants to look American by -being dictated - to only by her own individual taste; a woman who adds to this sense of independence, a sense of suit ability, a sense of excitement and a sense of quality. 8 p.m. Scottish Rite Wom en's club, Masonic temple.
