Some 40 years ago, before the present Sacred Heart church was built, it became the yearly custom for the Altar society to serve a ham dinner, with sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie, to the com munity on St. Patrick's day.

Incidents Recalled Many incidents have been recalled by the women who remember those early dinners, s-Mne humorous and some nearly disastrous. The green whipped cream on Mrs. Frank Applegate's pumpkin pie caused quite a sensation on one occasion. And cooking on one small stove in a too-small parish hall always presented problems. Much of the pre paration - was done in the kitchen of the rectory; or food was cooked in the homes of the parishioners, then warmed up In the rectory and finally transported, often through heavy rains, to the tables in .the parish hall. Attendance at these din ners steadily increased throughout the years as fa cilities improved and it be came possible to handle the larger crowds. But the oc casion was recalled when one ; zealous member of : the so ciety sold so many tickets that customers were lined up far along the street and finally it was necessary, to refund their money with embarrass ment because there was Winners Announced By Bartlett Club Bartlett Duplicate Bridge club met last week, with Mrs. Lawrence Buonocore .and Mrs. Joseph L.

Tribute was paid to charter . members that eve ning. Mrs. Carrie Puhl, Gar den Row, Gold Hill, was pres ent to receive her honors and a letter was read from anoth er charter member, William Carter, a retired Portland at torney, who stated his regrets at not being able to attend. Mrs. Puhl and Mr. Carter are the only living charter members of the lodge, which was instituted by Hope Rebekah-lodge at Ashland Feb ruary 14, 1898. About 50 can didates became members at that time. Mrs. Paul Molloy and Mrs. C. Norman Gail sang a vocal selection, especially arranged for "Carrie" and Mrs. George Dorman presented the gift. Outstanding authentic cos tumes of the 1859 era were worn by Mrs. Delos Walker, Mrs. - Roy Bornoman, Mrs. Thomas Z. Smith, Mrs. James Clement, and Mrs. C. Norman Gail. Mrs. Jerry Herrington, no ble grand conducted the busi ness session. Those named to serve on the March refresh ment and program committee were Mrs. Earl Moore, Mrs. Harry Quinn and Mrs. Wil Doctor's Fees Like Other "Living Costs By PATRICIA McCORMACK United Press International New York - (UPD - Doctors' fees like . other living costs, have- soared. New Jersey physicians charged only $7.50 to deliver a baby - in 1784. About the same time," a doctor would dress a wound and "take one stitch" for a dollar in New Hampshire. Ad ditional stitches cost 25 cents apiece. A pioneer doctor in Ban gor, Maine, would call at your home for $1. But if you lived more than one mile from his office, he'd" charge extra at the rate of 50 cents a mile. The bargain rates didn't last, according tp accounts in "Medical America," published by a drug firm, Shering. The reason: Doctors faced "in creased living costs and de preciation of currency value." Education Was Cheap The cost of seeing a doctor hit an all-time high in Cali fornia during the gold rush. Office calls were $32, up from S5 before the gold fever. When the rush was going full tilt, a doctor called to a pa tient's home at night expect ed $100. Medical education, accord ing to the historians, was dirt cheap in the good old days. Buffalo Medical college, for example, charged $150 for a "medical education ticket" in 1885. It was good for as many courses as the student de sired to attend or needed for graduation. Tuition at a medical school operated by a Paul Micheau in New Jersey in 1790 was even cheaper. He gave one lecture a day for two months, charging $25 for the full course. Different, too, were "rem edies" in the pioneer days. Around 1840, according to historians of the Oregon Medi cal society, "bleeding checked itself when cobwebs were ap plied." Other remedies: Praise Pioneer Doctors "Poultices concocted of wheat, flour and salt. Whiskey was universally used. Sun flower seed soaked in spirits for 12 hours and taken in ternally was used for rheu matism. "For insect bites and stings, mud was applied. On ion syrup was used for chil dren's colds." Historians sing the praises Of pioneer doctors, too. One of the heroes, Dr. Ed mund Strudwick, of North Carolina, performed a com plicated life-saving operation on an acutely ill patient dur ing the 1800's. At the time, Dr.. Strudwick's leg was broken - and unset. In Danville, Kl., around the same time, Dr. Ephriam McDowell surgically removed WHITHER YOU ARE HOMEMAKER STUDENT OR CAREER GIRL Picture j charming, glorious, more successful YOU!

Nylon stocks first went on sales in February, 1939. Today, we take the syn thetic fiber for granted, not only for our stockings, but for lingerie, other apparel for the Lwhole family, and an in finite variety of uses from toothbrushes to tires. It has not always been so. Some of us are ancient enough to remembering owning our first pair of, nylon hose around 1940, and also to re call that just as we were get ting used to them on our gams, the fiber went to war. The result was hardly panic; we just reverted to stockings from an even older synthetic fiber - rayon. Silk had be come a casualty too; and em bargo on its import went into effect in August, 1941. They Were Precious But we repaired and cod dled any nylons we owned. Remember those stories of re : Fellowship Circles To Hold Meetings Monday and Tuesday White Cross circles of Wom en's fellowship, First Baptist church, will meet Monday and Tuesday, February 23 and 24.

The meeting concluded with humorous stories and danc ing. Visitors are welcome at all times. 9 m RECORD CITY 111 North Central wards offered for the lost half of a pair? Or, the stories, of long queues of women, and sometimes men, which form ed when a store got a pre cious supply? E.-I. DuPont de Nemours and company, which develop ed the fiber, leafed through some of its scrapbooks from those war years and uncover ed one plaintive letter from a lovesick youth who asked for just one pair of nylons to cinch his engagement. "The value of the nylons will be equal to, and perhaps cherish ed more, than any diamond 1 could obtain for her now," he wrote. DuPont doesn't recall whether it helped Dan Cupid's cause by supplying a pair of hose. The company's researcers first announced development of the test-tube fiber in Octo ber, 1938. The first full-fashioned hosiery from it went ow sale to DuPont employees, February 20, 1939, with a girl's purchase limited to two pairs. Much Sheerer Today ' The hose first were shown to the public at the San Fran cisco World's Fair in Febr uary of the same year; but the first public sale was in October, 1939, to shoppers of Wilmington, Del., headquar ters for DuPont. By May 15, 1940, nylons were selling na tionally. Today, DuPont and hosiery manufacturers both battle an other "myth" - that nylons nowadays don't wear as well as the pre-war ones. But they explain that most of today's nylons are much more sheered than the early ones. The cus tomer who demands gossamer weight even for general wear, they say, can't expect the same "life" she would get from heavier stockings. The DuPont files include a story on how a nylon rush clogged telephone lines in the nation s caDital in January, 1946. A radio announcer said that a chain of shoe stores had 1,900 pairs of nylons and the first 1,000 telephone call ers would get them The result: Complete dis ruption of the capital's tele phone service for an hour.
