Speed of preparation prevents loss of flavor and food value, they said. Thorough cooling prevents spoil age in the deep freeze, the dem onstrators declared. Cranberry ham loaf made by placing cranberry sauce In a bread pan and adding a season ed mixture of cooked ground ham and veal with oatmeal, egg and spice was baked for an hour. The loaf was then ready to cool and freeze. Apples, the firm winter kind such as ortleys and newtowns, were sliced into a light salt brine, heated, cooled and pack ed for future pies. Stuffed baked potatoes topped with cheese, wrapped in foil, were taken from the freezer and opened enough to expose the cheese to prevent sticking to the foil. These were heated in the oven and served to the guests. A baked Alaska was made with pretzels. The pretzel pie shell consisted of rolled pretzels, sugar and butter. Into this was put vanilla and strawberry ice cream topped with stiffly beaten meringue. The Alaska was oven browned and placed in the freez er until ready to serve.

' - - i Mrs. Margaret Gordon Couple Observes 63rd Anniversary Cave Junction Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Wilber of Cave Junction celebrated their 63rd wedding anniversary October 9 at their home on Westside road. The Wilbers believe they are exceptionally fortunate. Their immediate family consists of 83 persons, and there have been only six deaths in the family in the entire 63 years. Married in their home state of Michigan in 1894, the Wilbers and their four children came to central California by train in 1901. It was not until 1905, after another baby was born, that they took a covered wagon and headed north into Oregon. Five more children made life busy and happy for the family who in the 1920s homesteaded in the Illinois valley. A variety of hobbies and a lively interest in people help to keep Mr. and Mrs. Wilber and young. Mrs. Wilber's bottle house and button collection are well known in southern Oregon, and her husband's wood carv ings and pen and ink sketches are prized among their friends and relatives. Five of their sons and daugh ters still live in the valley. The Wilbers have 27 grand children and 23 great grand children.

Members and guests gathered at the home of Mrs. Jack Spitz for the afternoon event. Describing the different for mations of rock where nickel is found, Mrs. Boyd said the local deposits are similar to those be ing developed in Cuba. They differ from the large deposit in Canada in that the latter is a sulphide type ore. Mrs. Boyd mentioned as an interesting sidelight to the nickel work here the finding of Jose phinite ore in the mountain ex plorations. Discovered on Jose phine creek over a hundred years ago, the ore has been sought over the years in this areu by miners and rock enthusi asts. Collecting Josephinite is one of Mrs. Boyd's hobbies, and she brought many specimens to display at the meeting. Mrs. Sam Bunch, another "rock-hound" gave an instruc tive talk on gem stones, display ing exquisite Rhodenite jewelry. The gem stones came from the Bunch-Floyd mine on Caves creek, and had been cut and pol ished by Mrs. Bunch, who also told of other cutting rocks to be found in this area. Taking charge of the business meeting was Mrs. Frank Knight, vice-president, who substituted for the president, Mrs. Frank Rauber. Mrs. John Milburn was in charge of the entertainment. Refreshments were served by Mrs. Spitz and her co-hostess Mrs. Milburn. Mrs. Alice Hogue was introduced as a guest. The November 8 meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. George Simmons. A program on CARE will be presented by Mrs. John Milburn. Decorators Return To Ages of Past Chicago IPI Decorators continually return to "ages past" in planning rooms, no matter how severe furnishings may be come, how vivid the colors, how plain the designs. Exhibitions at the Modern Living Exhibition held here re cently did just that. Grecian, old European, Orien tal and early American sculp ture and art were used to com plement even the most ultra modern decor. Grecian accessories were shown widely. Black and white ink sketches of characters from mythology formed the contrast ing wall decoration for a brightly-colored modern room. Ceramic figures of sword swinging cavaliers, court jesters and Shakespearean-type busts were used for the base of many table lamps beside contempor ary furniture. Most of the table lamps shown at the exhibition were quite large. Many reached to eye-level, although they stood on extremely low tables. Aztec, Indian" and Japanese art were the source for a wide variety of decoration. Silk screens, Indian prints used in room dividers, and mosaic table tops were popular. Aztec figurines carved from rough stone furnished a striking contrast to contemporary furn ishings. Two wall picture boxes of an cient sailing vessels dressed up another modern interior. Knights in armor, and battle shields were used as themes for other accessory planning. Modern adaptation of "pray ing chairs" were the center of attention in one room. Another room was highlighted by Jap anese "birdcage" floor lamps and polished brass "tree" lights. Square Dance Central Point Happy Har vesters will hold a square dance Saturday, October 19, at the American Legion hall, Central Point, at 8:30 p.m. J. D. Lub bers will call, and all square dancers are invited to attend. Potluck refreshments will be served.

The Queen's table will be covered lightly with smilax, a delicate greenhouse twining plant with bright green leaves, and garlands of red carnations. The four tiers of tables on the dias behind her will be deco rated with continuous heads of light pink, rose pink and red carnations. Guest tables,, cov ered with pink tablecloths, will have centerpieces of carnations. Grand Ballroom in Color Seven hours later; at eight, the grand ballroom will take on a blue and white look, the color theme for the formal din ner at which the Pilgrims of the United States and the Eng lish Speaking Union and 4,000 guests honor Britain's Queen. The color scheme, created by stage designer Donald Oensla ger, picks up the blue of the ribbon on which the Queen wears her Order of the Garter. Judith Garden, the floral de signer, is using miniature white chrysanthemums arranged in a solid hedge of blue boxes to decorate the three-tier dais ta blei which will be swathed in antique satin swagged with blue to match the boxes. The flowers on the dais will be the only flowers in the grand ballroom, but tables in the other five dining rooms being used for the occasion will have cen terpieces of white chrysanthe mums combined with English boxwood.

The prints, all landscape scenes, are designed so that each scene is repeated every 96 in ches instead of the usual 48. Dolph Moore, who designed them for the D. B. Fuller Co., said the pattern is spread over two panels. The homemaker sews them together for a 96 inch scene. To create even great er sweep, the landscape" has been designed on a 30-inch "pedestal" actually 30 inches without pattern so that furni ture will not hide the design. All patterns are in Eastman's "Andante," an acetate and rayon fabric for which dry cleaning is recommended.

"I have a good job, a fair salary, a nice office, easy hours, liberal vacation, and I get along with the boys in the office," writes a client. "But I hate my work. I don't ' like what I'm doing!" Job-hatred can be serious. A satisfying job may mean the difference between success or failure, between an individual's becoming an optimist or a con firmed pessimist, between his being a stable and understand ing parent and his being a bitter and unreasonable mate. In short, a wrong job often is responsible for the creation of frustrated persons who may "take out their spite" on their family, friends, and communities. Industry is well aware that square pegs should not be forced into round holes. The job-counselor is often one of the most important men in a large com pany. His work is to test ap plicants for jobs most suited to their tastes, training, and abili ties, to help them find the work which they will prefer, and to keep them happy at it. There are many tests which are beamed toward job-suitability quotients. We offer the following simple quiz merely to aid you in your general think ing. Ten or more YES's indicate a satisfaction with your situa tion.
