I r 1
When Roberta Sleeter returned home last week after
spending the summer in Norway she brought gifts for her
family and friends. Included among Miss Sleeter's purchases
were a pair of handmade Lapp boots with intriguing pointed
toes, and a typical Norwegian sweater knitted of green rust,
brown and gold tones with handmade silver buttons for her
mother. Miss Sleeter, who will be a senior at Medford High
school this fall, was one of the students selected this summer
for the American Field service program and spent several
weeks with a Norwegian family at a summer home near
Arendal. Miss Sleeter is a daughter of Mrs. Robert Sleeter,
39 South Berkeley way.
Space Age Theme Marks
Annual AAUW Fall Tea
"Living in the Space Age,"
the year's program theme for
Medford branch, American
Association of University
Women, was given promi
nence at the annual member
ship tea held Saturday at the
home of Mrs. Emerson T. An
derson, Hillcrest road. Tradi
tional floral decorations gave
way to interesting mobiles in
non-objective shapes, even as
the center piece for the tea
table. One of these mobiles
caught the eye on entering
the living room and two more
swung in the breeze on the
patio.
All were the handwork of
Mrs. Edwin Gebhard and Mrs.
Everett Lasher. Another bit
of abstract symbolism was a
small sculptured clay piece
representing two struggling
figures.
Guests were greeted at the
door by Mrs. Harry Poston
during the first hour and by
Mrs. Gordon Mackenzie the
second.
Mrs. John Stong, president
of Medford AAUW, intro
duced the guests to her fel
low officers, Mrs. Roy Elm

fery Shute, also an officer,
was unable to be present.

poured were Mrs. Herbert
Seitz, Mrs. A. J. Johannson,
Mrs. Dorothy Dowson and
Mrs. Frances Willett.

ing background throughout
the afternoon. Mrs. DeVere

Thomas Hall also spelled
Hael. Hall was one of the
original settlers of Manhattan
island. He had a 77 23-acre
land grant from the Dutch,
a grant now one of the richest
parcels of real estate in the
world the Wall Street and
Old Trinity church area.
Started By Father
Hall's one child, a daugh
ter, married an Edwards, and
so the branches began.
Miss Wilson said some
descendants of the Hall-Ed
wards clan feet they may
have some claim to the land
"but I couldn't care less; my
interest is strictly genealogi
cal." Actually, she said, her fath
er, Mark Thomas Wilson, a
railroad engineer now retir
ed, started the research m
1924.' She took over the pro
ject in 1949 and once the tree
was finished, she found trou
ble "planting" it anywhere
because of its size.
Her original work sheets,
listing some 22,000 ancestors
and 600 living descendants,
measured 26 by 54 feet when
pasted up. She since has had
the original lithographed in
a more workable size six by
eight feet.
Sources Are Varied
The genealogist started out
as a dressmaker and designer,
specializing in costumes for
New Orleans' annual Mardi
Gras. But once she began
tracing her ancestors, she
soon stowed her sewing ma
chine and enrolled in gene
alogy courses at the Congres
sional Library school in Wash
ington. She said she couldn't even
estimate how many hours,
miles and dollars went into
her own genealogy. But other
customers are charged by the
day, travel, mailing or any
other expenses involved.
Her sources are the living
heirs, plus records from fam
ily Bibles, churches, vital sta
tistics bureaus, city or county
health departments and li
braries. "One tip always leads to
another," she said. "But. fam
ilies today don't keep good
records. Very few fcecord
names and dates of births and
marriages in the Bible. It's
going to make work harder
for future genealogists. '
"Anyone can trace his own
family tree if he wants. You
don't need to be an expert.
But you need time, money
and, most of all, infinite pa
tience.". Chapter CG

New Milk Delivery
Tried in Vermont
Burlington, Vt. - (UPD - A
new method of milk delivery
that could eliminate the fa
miliar quart bottle has been
tested in Vermont.
Milk dispensers, containing
24 quarts, were tried out for
five months in the kitchens
of families using six or more
quarts of milk daily. These
refrigerated cabinets hold two
three-gallon cans and produce
milk through sterile rubber
tubes at the touch of a lever.
Housewives reported they
found the dispensers conven
ient. The extra room in re
frigerators was welcome, and
the milk kept longer. Only
disadvantage: the cabinets did
not fit easily into the kitchen
layout and usually it was
necessary to provide small
stands on which to place them.
