Program Announced
For Wednesday Club
Mrs. O. A. Welsh and Mrs.
H. H. Robertson will give the
program for a Wednesday
Study club meeting February
19 at Girls' Community club
at 2 p.m.
Mrs. Welsh will review
"The Cry of the Covenant,"
and Mrs. Robertson will give
a biography of John Foster
Dulles.
Only a few actual chemise
or sack dresses were to be
found at the annual spring
style shows of Medford Jun
ior Service league last week,
but they excited more com
ment than anything else.
Capacity audiences attend
ed all three performances.
Luncheon showings climax
ed the annual benefit. Funds
earned by the project will be
used to support the league's
kindergarten for hard-of-hear-ing
children.
Decorations were appropri
ate to the valentine season.
I Two huge decorative "cages"
held artificial birds and the
walls were covered with sim
ulated gift boxes covered
with foil in various rich col-
! ors and bearing the names
of firms assisting with the
show. Favors for the guests
were at each plate.
Mrs. C. B. Collins and Mrs.
J. S. Cummins provided com
mentary, alternating at the
microphone for each show,
and Abbey Green was at the
organ.
Members and their 'daugh
ters were the models. Mem
bers modeling were Mrs. Bil
ly Blackstone, Mrs. Jack A.
Edson, Mrs. David Holmes,
Mrs. Lon Skinner, Mrs.
George Lewis, Mrs. Richard
Hensley, Mrs. Walter Graff,
Mrs. Robert R. Turner, Ash
land, Mrs. Jonathan Middle
ton and Mrs. Gordon Hudson.
Daughters modeling were the
Misses Marta and Midi Luth
er, Susan Graff, Susan Bak
er, Diane Lewis, Tanya and
Vicky Enders and Barbara
Whalin. .
A unique feature of the
show this year was the fact
that well known business and
professional men chose the
clothing. Listed on the pro
gram as "fashion consultants"
were Floyd Baker, Vinson
Vaughan, James Dunlevy,
Fred Spiegelberg, J. P. Tob
in, Philip Lowery, Robert
Taylor, Russell Jamison,
John Snider, and James Ro
wan.
During intermission for all
three shows Mrs. Collins took
a microphone into the aud
ience to introduce certain
guests and ask for comments
on spring fashions. Surpris
ingly it turned out that many
women said they did not care
for the new chemise dresses,
or that their husbands d i s
liked them, but when men
were questioned Friday night
they reversed the trend and
declared themselves in favor
of the fashion.
- Mrs. Blackstone modeled a
navy blue chemise dress made
with a deeply-bloused double
back, wearing with it a blue
and white cloche reminiscent
of the '20s. Another chemise
was modeled by Mrs. Holmes,
this being of orange ice raw
silk with which she wore a
multiple-strand necklace of
beads which hung almost to
the bottom of the short skirt.
As usual, some dresses and
suits were received with
special favor. Mrs. Middleton
modeled a dress of floral silk
in the new "hot" orange col
ors which brought comment
and Mrs. Hudson received
much applause when she ap
peared wearing a rose pink
suit with jacket ties which
ended in froths of pink fur.
Clothing was supplied by
Pick's, Mann's, Leon's, Rath's,
Jean Hart, Frances Furs, Bur-
elson's, Town and Country
and Hadley's stores.
