Black Leads Color Parade
In Paris Winter Collections
Paris It's "black and white
and color all over" in Paris for
winter. Numerically speaking
black leads the color parade,
with an exciting range of vivid
blues running a close second.
Black and white tweeds are j
everywhere. Dior and Patou en
dorsed a "navy green" bitter
yellowed greens scored frequent
ly elsewhere. Reds are geranium
tones. Only Guy Laroche pre-!
sents a controlled color scheme
magnificent range of amber
tones from palest honey to
deepest orange.
Additional things to note:
Westchester1 county look at
Dior,' hats and often handbags
made of dress er coat or suit
fabric; tone-on-tone is the order
of the day in accessorizing here.
Bows are in abundance through
out Paris, and long multi-strand
necklaces, some with tear drop
pendants hanging from them.
Day and late da jumpers in
tweed flannel or velvet, worn
over jersey or satin blouses at
Guy Laroche; also cowl drapes
repeated like so many double
chins.
Long haired furs are used in
abundance for collars, coat lin
ings, giant muffs and at Lan
vin, Castillo used opossum for a
cloche which their press officer
christened "D a - i d Crockett'.
Balmain handled broadtail like
fabric for a tailored suit and
also used white ermine to fash
ion the most elegant evening
skirt in Paris.
Hats are pretty well covered
up and run the gamut from
hoods of felt shaped into Phry
gian caps by Svend. Turbans are
shown at Balmain, stovepipes at
Desses . . . shallow crowned sai-
Jors at Dior, antelope berets at
Paroche, "Fuzzi-Wuzzi" hats at
Lanvin which hug the head like
a wig, look for all the world
like a hedgehog made of nylon
tulle.
Ensembles seem stronger than
ever; this season they are gen
eraly in three pieces for day
time (dress and jacket and coat
or two-piece dress with a longer
jacket). Most evening gowns
have their own "go with" wraps.

History of
Garden Clubs
Butte Falls Mrs. Mattie Car
son gave a brief history of the
garden club movement at the
last meeting of Butte Falls Gar
den club. Mrs. Carson stated
that the love and appreciation
of gardens dates back as far as
the Garden of Eden, and that
there are many biblical refer
ences to flowers indicating that
their culture and beauty were
appreciated from earliest times.
In Europe there are many
gardens that have been in con
stant cultivation for four or five
hundred years and are wonder
ful examples of garden design
that are used as models today,
the speaker said.
In this country, George Wash
ington's garden dating back to
the latter part of the 18th cen
tury is patterned after the old
English gardens, and depends
upon design rather than color
for its interest.
The Garden Study club of
Massachusetts, and The Ladies
Garden club of Athens, Ga.,
claim to be the oldest garden
clubs in America, being organ
ized in 1892, Mrs. Carson re
ported. Interest has spread
across the whole United States
with members numbering in the
hundreds of thousands.
She concluded with "The gar
den clubs have it in their power
to illuminate and transform the
dark and dreary places of this
,world. Our opportunity is three-
foldfirst, to defend and cher
ish the beauty which is already
here: second, to promote the
beauty developed by art and
patient workmanship; and third,
to extend to all underprivileged
people the enjoyment of both
these kinds of beauty.
Mrs. N. B. Stoddard talked on
the conservation of a natural
resources timber. Timber is
the most valuable crop which
can be grown in Oregon and
Washington," Mrs. Stoddard
said.' Adequate forest fire pro
tection and good logging meth
ods, where sufficient seed trees
are saved, generally result in
fine stands of reproduction, the
speaker added. Western Wash
ington is now largely a pro
ducer of this second growth.
While Oregon ranks high in the
production of "old growth" tim
ber, second growth timber pro
vides the margin of safety for
the northern Coast Range, Wil
lamette "Valley and the lower
Columbia river region, Mrs.
Stoddard added.
Important strides have been
made in fire prevention, she
said. The fire prevention effort
has been spearheaded by the
"Keep Green" campaign in both
states. Mrs. Stoddard read the
song "Smokey the Bear," by
Steve Nelson and Jack Rollins,
which has endeared "Smokey"
to the hearts of all the children
of our land.
The club held a garden tour,
starting at the home of the host
ess, Mrs. Clay Conley, and her
close neighbor Mrs. Edmondson
and followed by a visit to seed
ling trees planted by- the For
estry club and to gardens of
Mrs-. William Edmondson, Mrs.
N. B. Stoddard and Mrs. Elga
Abbott. At the last home refresh
ments were served on the patio
by the hostess Mrs. Clay Conley
and co-hostess Mrs. Abbott.
The club opened its session
with devotions by Mrs. Howard
Simmonds.
Prospect Family
Entertains Guests
Prospect Mr. and Mrs. El-
wood Greear, their daughter,
Billie Jo, and sons, Dick and
Mike, of Bates, Ore.,, were re
cent guests at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Paul R. Doe of Pros
pect. -While here they attended
the wedding of Miss Jo Ann Doe
and Guy Parker; Billie Jo was
one of the bridesmaids. They
also spent a few davs vacation
ing at Diamond lake.

Women Nag Food Industry
About Labels on
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Women's Editor
New York HP) Woman's in
satiable curiosity leads her to
read the recipes on food pack
ages. But it doesn't always tease
her into trying them.
Matter of fact, It sometimes
just set her to nagging the food
industry.
One of the more persistent
complaints is against the manu
facturer's estimate of the num
ber of servings in the package,
compared with a family's con
sumption. 4
"Dr. Birdseye, bless him, .he
must have had a bird's appetite,"
said one woman. She was one
of 318 housewives involved in
a recipe study, results of which
were released today, and was
referring to the man who pio
neered the frozen foods indus
try. His name still is the label
on products from one major
packager.
Interesting Comments
Said another cook, whose hus
band is a truck dispatcher:
"My fellow, when he passes
his plate and I tell him there
is no more, he says, 'What are
we operating, a tea room or
something?' "
The New York industrial de
sign firm of Nesbitt associates
did the study to determine how
cooking instructions on pack
ages rate with the housewife.
It talked with women, 21 to
55 years of age, in three subur
ban New York areas. One third
of the women not only did all
their housework but also held
either full or part-time jobs.
Saul Nesbitt, director of the
firm, said because many house
wives distrust manufacturers'
count on servings, they just buy
double and I doubt if the man
ufacturers complain about this.
But the women generally like
the idea of recipes on packages.
Most of them read them only
46 of the 318 said they rarely
noticed the cooking tips.
"Reading macaroni packages
is the only way I've learned how

to make lasagna and chicken
tetrazini," said one, bride.
Some Save Recipes
One third of the women said
they save the recipes for their
own cooking notebooks. Sixty
nine didn't trust the manufac
turers' test kitchens they use
their own ideas.
Some 50 per cent complained
they wished the recipes appear
ed in larger or at least more leg
ible print.
Chilliest reaction concerned
frozen food packaging. More
than half the women said the
amount of water suggested was
not sufficient. a
"I burn more frozen vege
tables than anything else," said
three score of the 318.
They also protested to the
way the recipes were carried on
frozen packages. "The recipes
are mutilated and impossible to
read by the time you've taken
off the outer wrapper," said one
woman.
Nesbitt believes the 318 wo
men represented a pretty good
"pilot study." But he said he d
happily listen to all further com
plaints. So let's go, ladies.
Business Women

ford Business and Professional

Lutheran League
Delegate Returns;
Reports Projects
Mrs. Edwin Guetzlaff, Jack
sonville, returned Saturday from
Minneapolis, Minn., where she
attended a convention of the
Lutheran Women's Missionary
league. Mrs. Guetzlaff represent
ed the Oregon district, of which
she is second vice-president; she
is also president of St. Andrew's
zone and president of St. Peter's
Lutheran guild, Medford.
Before returning home Mrs.
Guetzlaff visited relatives and
friends in Little Rock, Ark., in
Iowa cities, and also made stops
in Tucson, Ariz., and Los An
geies. Yesterday Mrs. Guetzlaff left
for Portland to attend a session
of the Oregon district.
Mrs. Guetzlaff reported that
a Bible institute, a training cen
ter and two chapels in Nigeria,
Africa, were among the projects
adopted by the Lutheran Wom
en's Missionary league during
the national convention, attend
ed by more than 3,000 women.
Mrs. Arthur Preisinger, Lake
Forest, HI., was re-elected presi
dent. Dr. John W. Behnken, presi
dent of the Lutheran Church
Missouri synod, reported on his
recent tour of the church's Asi
atic missions and stated that a
new mission will be opened in
Korea this fall. The Rev. James
Mayer, thanking the league for
a grant of $75,000 toward a new I
wing on the church's hospital in
Ambur, India, called attention
to the dire s need and the lack
of medical services in India.
Referring to India policy in
closing the door to any addition
al American missionaries, the
Rev. Mr. Mayer called it "a
blessing in disguise, which ac
celerated the transition from a
colonial type mission to a .na
tional church." He declared that
"Indian missions are no longer
'foreign missions' but 'home
missions' done by the Indians
themselves."
Other projects adopted by the
convention include a school for
missionary children in New
Guinea and a girls' dormitory
in Selma, Alabama. The next
convention will be held in
Toronto, Canada, in 1959.
