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.

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.
Not many brides can boast that they arrived in the city of
their wedding in the cab of a locomotive. Mrs. Ellis Canns thp

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.

Teen-Age Boys Now
Boast of Cookery
New York (U.R) Tomor
row's bridegroom will be able to
boil water, even if his bride
can't.
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.
