MAIL TRIBUNE New Booklet On Market "Creative Activities Simpli fied" is the title of a new book let now on the market in Med ford and the work of Mrs. Grov er Corum, assisted by the Rev. George A. Trobough. Mrs. Corum, superintendent i of the junior department of First Presbyterian church here, I has taught Sunday school and i worked with children for many j years. The Rev. Mr. Trobough is i assistant pastor of First Metho- dist church here. Mrs. Corum prepared the text of the booklet and the minister made photo graphs and otherwise assisted. The booklet provides a guide for teaching children how to make various objects with their hands using for the most part articles and materials found in the home. Mrs. Corum, in an ex planation of the booklet, points out that children "learn by doing" and adds that the booklet will aid those wishing to teach the Christian way of life. Mrs. Corum gives detailed in formation on how to make such articles as puppets from pota toes or paper sacks, how to use wallpaper cleaner as a substi tute for the more expensive modeling clay, how to use pipe cleaners, paper which might otherwise be discarded and the tubes from ; rolls of paper in creative activity for children. The authors believe the booklet will prove useful to Sunday school teachers, leaders for youth groups and for parents of small children. Mrs. Corum states that as she worked throughout the years as teacher and leader of groups, the need for such material be came apparent. The new booklet is obtainable at Swem's store and Eby Book and Bible store. It is also being offered to pub lishers in other parts of the na tion. The author dedicated the work to her "twin sons and the grand children." The foreward was written by Dr. D. Kirkland West, pastor of First Presbyterian church. 4 Fall Salad Crisp fall apples make a won derful salad with raisins, celery, walnuts and tiny chunks of cream cheese, all blended with mayonnaise thinned slightly with lemon juice. 4 Fruit Salad Pretty as a picture for a buffet table is sparkling canned fruit cocktail molded in lime-flavored gelatin.

IP o tip in ir ir i Potpourri's mail recently brought a letter from Fay Dierdorff whose husband, Dr. G. A. Dierdorff, is now a resident physician with a hospital in Des Moines, la. Mrs. D. wrote to say that the family was missing the beautiful mountains of southern Oregon, and longing to see the ocean again from Oregon's rugged coast. "Jerry;s just as busy as he can be," she wrote, "and that doesn't give him much time at home. We have no meals together except our evening meal when he get his half day a week off. He does have every other week end off, and that helps some. Incidentally, the dietitian at the hospital where Jerry is resident is the sister of Dr. W. W. Stevenson." Mrs. Dierdorff asked for a copy of the paper containing the story of the wedding of the Stevenson's daughter, Martha, for her aunt. Mrs. D. also wrote that since time is hanging heavy on her hands in the big city, she is considering enrolling at Drake uni versity, and explained the school's Community college. She wrote "The college has made a real effort to reach working people in all parts of the state with an educational program that is both prac tical and valuable. Instead of having professional teachers in every instance, they will select a successful salesman to teach salesman ship, or a business man to teach that which he knows best. Seems to work out very well." The Dierdorffs were planning a trip to Iowa City to see the R. H. Dennings, who formerly lived at Camp White, and were hopeful that Medford friends in Iowa would come calling. A letter from the soldier in Berlin brought the news that the Army wife had arrived from New York and .that they had been busy trying to see Berlin. "We went last night to a place known as the Eierschale (Egg Shell). It's a little cave, actually a cellar, which is a hangout for college students and artists. Somewhat Bohemian in flavor, and very noisy. We finally ended up sitting next to a couple of Russian officers who asked the waitress if we were American (yes) then if she knew our names (no) and finally if I was an American officer. "The Russians themselves were very interesting, somewhat the Yul Brynner type, and very ominous. A German girl with us com mented that she hated them. "We have a nice apartment here, about six blocks from the barracks. There's only one questionable part. We live about two blocks from the Russian zone. It wouldn't be at all bad if we were near the Russian sector (the Russian occupied part of Berlin that we can enter, although it's not advisable) but with the zone you just disappear for a few years. It's the part of Germany itself that the Russians hold." The soldier, with the 298th Army band, also wrote that "We play a weekly concert at one of the 52 (I believe it is) refugee camps here in Berlin. They are scattered throughout the British, French and American sectors. The concerts are the highlights of every week, for that's one concert we can always count on to have an appreciative audience, and we feel we're doing something worthwhile an unusual sensation in the Army. "Very few of the refugees speak any English and only four of us speak any German. As a consequence, I get to speak to many of them in my halting low German. The children are really the wonderful part, well behaved and very friendly. We usually try to take candy to them, and to them it's a precious item. It's fun just to watch them break out in smiles. They're usually quite quiet and sober so unlike American children. "I've found Berlin a wonderful place to be stationed. There's so much to see and do, and the people are friendly. There are a few that mutter 'schlechtes mann' as they walk by, but they are few and far between." According to a UP release from Chicago, a man with matri mony in mind should look inside the lady's handbag before pro posing. Thomas Rolfs, an accessory manufacturer, says "If her pocketbook reveals broken combs, co-specked lipsticks beware. "She ing in the mirror than washing ries empty cigarette packages, old bus transfers, scribbled notes or one earring she'll never be a well-organized hostess or cook. Or if she carries old mementoes and souvenirs, it indicates she clings to the past. Just in time the manufacturer for the men. Don t let the bride - flame in his billfold. Excerpt from speech by State for Jackson County Republican real property tax field once and erty tax has caused the income tax to be excessively increased and has built surpluses. Large surpluses are undesirable as a principle of good government. The existence of such surpluses tends . to cause unnecessary or undesirable expenditures to be made from taxpayers' funds. The state isn't much different from any family operating under its own budget. If funds are on hand and avail able" the pressures are tremendous and not usually resisted to expend them. Such a bill was supported by the Republicans at the last session, but defeated by the Democratically controlled house tax committee." O.S.
