New York Shop Markets
Elder Craftsman's Work
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Ediior
New York (LTD The rec
ords show they're over 60, but
their crafts on display at a
unique Manhattan shop show
they're young in heart.
I'm talking about the sen
ior citizens whose works
from needle-point to wood
carvings are sold through the
older craftsmen shop.
''I find most of our con
signors are full of vim and
have more real zest for liv
ing than some of the teen
agers I know," said Eugenie
D'Arsi, its director.
Which is exactly what she
and others interested in this
project wanted when they op
ened the shop in November,
1955.
Miss D'Arsi said the idea
grew from the annual New
York hobby shows for older
persons. There were so many
who were skilled, ' it just
seemed logical there should
be a place for them to sell
their wares.
Long Time Developing
"It took some of them near
ly half a century to develop
some of their hobbies," she
said. "Once retired, there is
the possibility that all the
practice and creativeness will
go to waste.
"Through this shop, they're
working toward a goal . . .
they're not put on the shelf."
They're also working for
money.
Consignors get 75 per cent
of sales. The rest goes to op
eration of the shop. Last
year's gross was $30,000, Miss
D'Arsi said, and this year it
will be higher. Individual con
signors earn anywhere from
55 and $10 on up. One retired
banker who makes unusual
brief cases earned $1,200 dur
ing the peak of the Christmas
shopping season last year.
"One thing we insist on,'
said Miss D'Arsi, "The pro
duct must stand on its merit.
We don't want people to buy
just to be kind."
The director and a volun
t e e r advisory committee
screen each potential new
item for its quality as well
as sales appeal. Some con
signers bring samples direct
ly to the shop. Others, the far
away to come in mail samples.
First In Nation
Miss D'Arsi said the shop
was the first in the nation to
serve as outlet for hobbies of
the over 60 exclusively. But
it promises to be copied in
other cities she has had in
quiries from all parts of the
country.
Some 325 elderly citizens
25 per cent of them con
sign a variety of products:
dolls, purses, hand-painted
trays; pictures done with ap
plique of fabric; aprons, sam
plers, wood-carvings, toys, lea
ther goods, hooked rugs,
Supper Planned
By Mineral Club
Members of Roxy Ann Gem
and Mineral club will hold a
potluck supper Wednesday,
August 13, at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. George Reneker.
It is located in an area which

The club announces that the
birthstone for August is sar
donyx or peridot, and mem
bers having specimens of
these are asked to bring them

At the last meeting of the
club, Delmar Smith showed
slides taken during a trip to
Yellowstone park.
The club display now at

Luscious desserts of gourmet origin are these crunchy flaked
coconut macaroons nesting in a fruity mixture. Easy to make, too,
using this recipe that is "cake and dessert" all in one, but with the
added advantage of being divided. In other words, the flaky coconut
macaroons are perfect as an accompaniment for ice cream . . . while
the delicious fruit mixture may be used on cake or a hot cottage
pudding. But why bother with other suggestions when the combina
tion given here is so perfect in itself!

3 cups Angel Flake
Coconut
23 cup sweetened
condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Combine coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla, mixing well. Drop
by-heaping tablespoonful on brown paper which has been placed
on a baking sheet. Shape into 2-12-inch rings. Bake in moderate
oven (350F.) 17 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from
. paper at once.
Mix together applesauce, lemon juice, strawberries, and almond
extract. Spoon about 14 cup filling into each serving dish, top each
with a baked macaroon ring, and garnish with additional straw
berries, if desired. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
Ships Can-Opener Saves
Woman From Time in Galley
By JEANNE LESEM
United Press International
New York (UPD The can-
opener aboard the sloop Gal
atea ought to have its own
life-preserver.
It's that important to hostess-cook
Mary Conover when
she and her husband, Jack,
put out from Larchmont Har
bor, N.Y., every week end
during the sailing season. The
Galatea is a 28-foot ' boat
which sleeps four. And they
always have guests.
I'm a great promoter of
canned goods," Mrs. Conover
said. "They're easy to store
and prepare. I don't do any
cooking at home in advance."
It's hard to see how she
could find the time for ad
vance preparations while
holding a full-time executive
job.
"I don't need to cook at
home," she explained, "be
cause I have a menu system.
Before each trip, I make a
chart showing the complete
menus, plus things to be
taken from home and gro
ceries to be bought."
This kind of efficiency is
essential for young working
couples like the Conovers,
who spend every week end
and vacation aboard their
small boat. He is executive
director of the Corset and
Brassiere association and she
is its fashion director.
Not even bad weather
keeps them ashore, Mrs. Con
over said, but in really rough
seas, Galatea stays at anchor
in harbor. And on any trip,
she added, she doesn't light
up the two-burner portable
stove until the anchor has
been dropped.
An Iowa-born landlubber
until three years ago, Mrs.
Conover finds cooking in a
tiny galley less of -a problem
than making sandwiches
while the craft is underway
"Imagine trying to make
sandwiches while you're
standing a right angles in a
boat that's heeling. You have
to brace your feet against
the bulkhead on the opposite
side of the cabin," she said,
laughing.
Whether cooking aboard or
picknicking ashore, the Con-
overs keep the meals simple.
Hamburgers or hot dogs at
sea. and charcoal-b roiled
steak on land are among
their favorites. Sometime:
there's also - foil-wrapped
grilled corn on the cob, but
most of their vegetables come
from cans.
Frozen foods have been
shunned by this sea-going
cook ever since her early
sailing days when she stored
some in a porta Die ice dox,
only to discover the packages
awash in melting ice water
just before meal time.
The galley chef s trick of
using both parts of a double
boiler to heat food has been
adapted by Mrs. Conover for
a drip coffee pot. While wa

as many dishes and cups as
we can or storing them up

Jennings Family
Returns to CJity
After Vacations
Dr. and Mrs. George S
Jennings and their two daugh
ters, the Misses Nancy and
Melissa Jennings, ' have re
turned to Medford after vaca
tion trips. Dr. and Mrs. Jen
nings were in Canada where
they were a part of the Wally
Byran Trailer tour of west
ern Canada for four weeks,
while the Misses Jennings
were in the east.
Miss Nancy Jennings, who
taught the fourth grade in
Oswego, Ore., last year, first
attended the annual conven
tion of National Education
association in Cleveland,
Ohio, before continuing east
to meet her sister, a student
at Brigham Young university
ine two were joined by a
cousin and the three young
women then visited New
York City, Boston, Washing
ton, D.C., and other eastern
cities. They attended perform
ances of "The Music Man"
and "Bells Are Ringing" in
New York.
Miss Nancy Jennings will
remain here until the open
ing of school in Oswego in
September.
Dr. and Mrs. Jennings re
port that 185 trailers made
up the caravan for the tour
of western Canada. The
travelers met at Glacier Na
tional park and visited Banff,
Lake Louise and made the
Frasier River canyon trip. In
Revelstoke they- joined the
crowds which were in that
city during the visit of Prin
cess Margaret.
For between city driving
the caravan members are
grouped in order that the
traffic is not impeded, and
most cities provide police
escort through town, the. Jen
nings report. The next tour
planned by the trailer owners
is to Africa and Europe, and
those on the tour will be
away for a year.
The caravan represented
30 states and two Canadian
provinces, and numbered
about 500 persons.
Small white onions take on
extra flavor when cooked in
boiling chicken or beef stock
until almost tender. Drain
and saute in melted butter
or margarine, add a few ta
blespoons of fresh orange
juice, a pinch of salt, ground
black pepper and a dash of
ground mace or nutmeg.
Lettuce wrapped in foil will
not turn brown in the refrig
erator, and will ' stay crisp
longer.
Color Can Appear
To Change-Rooms
New York (UPD Women
should choose paint colors to
enhance their homes as they
would pick clothes to flatter
their figures, say decorators
for the National Paint and
Varnish association.
The correct use of colors
can make rooms appear larg
er or smaller, or seem to take
on a different shape. To de
cide on tones, consider cur
rent color trends, your own
preference, the exposure, and
the room's dimensions and
faults.
Cool colors blues and blue
greens seem to recede and
add a feeling of spaciousness.
Warm colors the reds, yel
lows, pinks and oranges give
a cozy, intimate quality to
large rooms. But they make
small rooms seem smaller.
Green is considered neither
warm nor cold, but if it's
a yellow-green, it is not suit
able for a southwest exposure.
Using this color knowledge,
you. can change the apparent
shape of the room. A far wall
in a long, narrow white room
can be painted a dustry-rose
to make the room appear
square. Deep colors have the
"advancing" quality of warm
colors, so painting the ceiling
of a green room in a deeper
green tone would make the
ceiling appear lower. ,
Add white to paint used
on window walls to make
them seem lighter. Window
walls do not reflect light and
so appear darker. Ceilings,
most often painted white for
greater reflection and height,
also should reflect some wall
color. Add a tint of the wall
hue.
Contrasts
Lightness or darkness of
color is accentuated by con
trast with adjoining colors
White will seem whiter
against a deep hue, and vice
versa. Colors also are affect
ed by lighting, so study a
painted sample in daylight
and at night.
If you plan to paint one
wall to match drapery fabric,
remember that a rough-tex
tured fabric has depth. When
draped, this material will ap
pear deeper in color than a
smooth, flat-surfaced paint.
Therefore, choose a paint col
or that appears deeper In tone
than the fabric.
Smooth-surfaced fabrics
are the opposite. Glazed
chintzes will reflect light, so
the color of the fabric will
appear lighter.
Another trick is to paint
the baseboard to match wall
to-wall carpeting. This adds
visually to floor area.
An "all - over" treatment
also gives the illusion .of
space. Paint fireplace, door
frames, window and other
trim in the same shade as
the walls.
Remember that color, when
seen in a large area, appears
more intense than the same
color in a small paint chip or
color sample. Try painting a
piece of wallboard and mov
ing the piece around the room
to make sure the hue blends
with the rest of the furnish-
