I hate al fresco dining. I'm tired of smelling what has become the nation's .favorite odor smoke. I'm just not enough of the outdoor type to think that . barbecues and Q picnics and cook-outs are pre ferable to the meal in the din ing room. Give me my calories on gleaming china, with a white darrftsk table coOer, cloth napkins, shining siiver nd a candlelight and flowers atmosphere. Leave no .insects buzz around my head as I en joy my steak. About this time last year I founded off on the same sub ject, but obviously not loud enough. Some people didn't pay any attention anyway, be cause al fresco eating is in creasing. Statistics saying so have been crossing my desk ever since warm weather Ite gan.

But I'll join the migration to ti patio only when dining out becomes as civiliz8 as dining in. 0 I'm tired of trying to bal ance a paper plate of food in one hand and a beverage in the other.

As a girl in Pacific county, Washington, the Fourth of July was second only to Christmas as a time for fun and excitement. Sometimes there would be a community picnic with music, and patriotic orations from the bunting-draped stand, and of much mora interest to the small fry big freezers of homemade ice cream and tubs full of lemonade. The lemon ade was made from real lemons, too. At 10 years of af e, nothing could have kept us from the Fourth of July celebration. Now all we want to do' is stay home in oifr own back yard. And it's not entirely because advancing age has brought disinterest in the scene around us. It's the traffic. Xf we .venture forth in the family car, it will be on some quiet back road where even the holiday traffic will probably be light. Nothing short oi a dire emergency could coax us out on Highway 89 on a holiday. Last Sunday was an example. The two of us were re turning from Grants Pass, where we'd looked in on the AAUW Southern Oregon Art exhibit, and narrowly escaped beinj in the middle of a four-car accident. All because an idiot driver was in ao much of a hurry that he was willing to risk the lives of not only himself and his passengers profcably his wife and two small children, but of the occu pant of the other can ell for the sake of a few moments time.. ; - ' la. all likelihood this driver we have no idea who he might be would never dream of threatening the life of anyone with gun, or poison; neither would he rudely shove another parson aside in order to be first into a room or a building. Why then does he fcse his manners, his dignity tad hi good sens just because he is driving a car? ' : t. ' A former Medford resident, Zoe Dell Lantis, now Mrs. Richard S. West of Willows, Calif., officially represented California at tha opening of the World's Fair in Brussels. Mrs. West wrote of this, and other details of a trip around the world, in a letter to the recent - reunioa of tha Medford High school graduating class of 1933. In her letter Mft. West had proved ao exhausting that she couldn't . "walk, crawl or fly another foot." She wrote "I started out the first of March and traveled through. Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand, India, Fgypt, the Middle East, Turkey, Greece, Italy and Belgium. There I represented California at the World's Fair and extended the official ta the Belgian officials, etc. "I then hit England a glance blow, thence to New York end straight to San 1 Francisco, Willows and collapsed.

Preparing for a trip is almost as time and energy consuming aa taking it, so we are busy these days." , Another letter received by the reunion committee was from the former Maxine Bohnert, now Mrs. Aupperle. Mrs. Aupperle enclosed a folder which pictured her as Maxine, The Story Lady, who entertained visitors to Knott's Berry Farm in southern California. She wrote that she had also played in Tha Bird Cage Theater"- at Knotts. and had served as a guide and greeter. She wrote further "I am no longer there, as I am busy doing a television story, research, and soma story collaboration . jobs. . "I was fortunate to be the owner for awhile of Trail's End, home of the famous Charles Russell, (known as the 'cowboy artist') in Pasadena. It was quite an experienced I am "married .to a nice chap of French ancestry, the same as I; my .husband works in the motion picture industry as a' technician. We have two daughters, ages 11 and 14." Mrs. Warren Renfrow, the former. Ruby Stone, wrote from Lako Worth, Flfl., to say that distance prevented her from attending the reunion. She added that her son, Lance, was rehearsing for a water festival to be given July 4 in which he would do the high jumps on ski shoes, and other stunt, including carrying a girl on his shoulders while' using but one ski.

"It got rough a couple of times and nearly everyone was sick; we were no exception. I now know that I don't have hay fever in the middle of the ocean, but I'd rather have that than be seasick. There were nine of us in our compartment, including one lady in her sixties and tvo 18 month's old babies. Kenny was in the hold, but we managed to spend quite a bit of time together." She related details of the soldier's release from the Army at Fort Hamilton, and of a vacation spent at Tuxedo Park with the New York City members of the family. The letter ended with a line of words in great, big printed letters, marching along the bottom of the page. It said: "It sure is good to be out of the Army ! ! ! !

Justice Minister "Red SiSde Benjamin in a lecture to wqmen Communist leaders brobfe the sad news that a new family law now is being drawn up. She made it plain the new law would place still strong- er pressure on wives to get them out of .the homes and into industry even if they lave to leave their husbands. She. said 18.3 per cent of all womero with children now are working but this is not .enough. Leave And Learn She denounced as "house tyrants" husbands who oppose their wives taking jobs. Wives, she said' who do not realize they must work if they really want to be equal are simply stupid. Lack of training is no ex cuse, she said. She asserted that wives could leave their husbands "for some time" in order to learn a trade. Red Hilde, whose husband is dead, said the new family lawP virtually would abolish alimony. She said divorced women would get alimony only in exceptional cases. . If a man has to pay ali mony "it canj limit his active participation in the building of socialsm," she said. The new family law, Frau Benjamin said, legallywill oblige working wives to pay half of the household costs. . The law presumably will say nothing . about tipping haft.
