(U..) The Uni varsity of Illinois' safety depart ment says a busy kitchen is a dangerous place. To avoid kitchen accidents the housewifa must be safety conctous at all .times, ' its ex perts advise. Among suggestions offered: Plan and prepare as much of the meal as possible beforehand so there will be few last minute items to attend to; Don't hurry. Take the time to be careful, evenif it does mean a burnt potato or two; Turn handles of cooking uten sils to the back of the range so they cannot be knocked over ac cidentally; Don't leave knives and other potentially dangerous instru ments within the reach of chil dren; Use a safe, easily manageable step ladder to reach high places; Organize your small equip ment for convenient use so that. for example, dish towels will not hang directly above an electric toaster; Make sure all electric cords, switches and plugs are in good condition. "Invest a little time and money in safety," the experts ad vise. "The hospital bills you'll save will more than cover the cost." Dr. Phyllis Plichta SOC Professor Attends Session Of National Group Ashland Dr. Phyllis Plichta, professor of education at South ern Oregon college, returned re cently fram a three-day confer ence of the American Associa tion of Colleges for Teachers Ed ucation in Chicago, where she served as the Oregon delegate to the meeting. The conference, held at the Morrison hotel, consisted of a number of group meetings and general sessions aimed at im proving teacher education pro grams throughout the country. According to Dr. Plichta, dele gates to the conference felt a real need for a better under standing and knowledge of stu dents who are going into the education field. In the urgency of producing enough teachers to fill the current shortage, she said, the needs of students as hu man beings are not being met. Miss Plichta felt that the AACTE conference helped to demonstrate the need of "steer ing" individuals in education. The Association for Student Teaching and the National So ciety of College Teachers of Edu cation held joint meetings dur ing the AACTE conference, and the three groups worked togeth er in studying problems of mu tual interest. Miss Plichta at tended meetings of all three groups. Dr. Plichta, who is vice-president of the Oregon Association for Student Teaching, will re port on the conference during the state meeting in March. She also conducted a local organiza tional meeting of teachers inter ested in the AST February 27.

Gardener Explains Ways to Achieve Continuous Bloom Mrs. Jack Campbell was in charge of the program for a meeting of Howard Garden Club held February 26 at the home of Mrs. Don J. Elliot, 2671 El liot avenue. After showing colored slides of her own garden, Mrs. Camp bell spoke on "Planting for Con tinuous Bloom." The best way to start a garden, she explained, is to decide on what you are will ing to put into it in the way of materials, money, time and ef fort. She described different methods of achieving a garden that will provide color every month of the year and told how to combine shrubs and flowers for a colorful and pleasing dis play. Mrs. L. C. McCay, chairman, conducted the business meeting. The club voted to buy two rose bushes to be planted on the grounds at the Camp White Dom iciliary. Many more are needed and it is hoped each garden club in the district will participate in this effort. A lively discussion was held on how to combat "litterbugs," those thoughtless persons who throw trash and debris along streets and highways. It was noted that in some states a heavy fine is imposed on anyone who is apprehended in throwing lit ter from a car or in any other way marring the roadside beau ty. The club members are vi tally interested in this problem and plan to put forth a concert ed effort to help solve it. It was decided to hold a plant exchange at the March meeting. Mrs. Herb Lingren and Mrs. Ernest Gleason were hostesses for the dessert luncheon. Biscuit-Honey Feed Announced For Lodge Men Gold Hill H. D.

Sunday, March 3, I9S7 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN PTA History Reviewed A Founders' day meeting was held by the Oak Grove Parent- Teacher association in the school cafeteria Monday evening. Past presidents Mrs. William Knips, Mrs. Laurence Crocker, Mrs. Martin Clogston and Mrs. Hans Meier were honored and each was presented with a corsage. Also a guest at the meeting was Mrs. Mathilda Knips Hall who was secretary-treasurer for the PTA in 1925 and 1926. During the evening Mrs. Ger ald Parsons, program chairman, gave the history of the Oak Grove PTA. The group was first organized in 1913 as a social group, and was later reorganized in 1924 with Mrs. Joe Thornton as presi dent; in 1926 the PTA first pro- j vided a Christmas treat and in 1927 a new school on the present location replaced the one room i structure across the street. ! An amusing incident was re called when the husband of one of the members mistakenly primed the pump with the jello that had been made for a school dinner. Among the early purchases by the PTA included screen doors and light protectors. In 1937 the school lunches cost three cents per dish and in 1941 the luncn room bill for groceries was $10.44 for. one month. Parents were asked to donate butter to keep the bill down. During the war lunches were said to be a problem due to ration stamps and the higher cost of groceries. It was in 1950, Mrs. Parsons said, that evening meetings were started by the group so both par ents could attend the PTA. A business meeting was held prior to the evening's program and a nominating committee was elected. Those on the com mittee include Mrs. Aubrey Wis dom, Mrs. Robert Buckler and Mrs. R. H. Gandee. Refresh ments were served by the moth ers of the fourth grade students. Illinois Boasts of Own Grandma Moses Magnolia, 111. (U.R) Mrs. Mary McCall, 86, who took up painting at 75, is known as the "Grandma Moses" of this Put nam County community. Landscapes, particularly win ter scenes and river valleys, are her favorite subjects. Painting and drawing, she said, always came easy, but she was too busy raising a family in earlier years to get started. She has three daughters and a son. A set of oil paints received as a Christmas gift 11 years ago started her painting, and she's still at it.

DIRTY CACHET p. 0 PlH!LSTEY o THE ONLY SOIL RESISTANT CLEANER GUARANTEED BY GOOD HOUSEKEEPING Laurlne'i Carpet House is progressing with Medford. We are now in the rug and upholstery cleaning business and have found that selling and cleaning floorcovering go hand in hand like a beautiful Strauz Waltz. The fabrie mills, such as Bigelow, Gulis stan, Firth, Wunda Weve, Barwick, Lees Mohawk, have put on the market hundreds , of different weaves, fabrics and colors. For example there is good wool, cheap wool, rayon, nylon, dyrnel and acrilan. Now unfortunately the average person does not know the actual composition of their rug and it requires an expert's attention. THAT'S ' WHERE WE COME IN. We wish to thank the people of Jackson County for making our floorcovering business a success and in turn may we now help you preserve your Rugs and Upholstery?
