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.

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

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
