Gar nish each fish serving with a pickle slice and a whole ripe olive on a pick, and sprinkle with finely chopped parsley. IT'S OUR 27TH (j IN MEDFORD!

Ill We Carry Our Own Contracts Setting Maehuus Qg jjast Main - Phone SP 2-2388 Like many another person, Mayor John Snider wishes that he hadn't been quoted out of context. The mayor has been getting a lot of calls from readers of McCall's Maga zine which quoted Mayor Snider as saying that he never misses the television program, "Edge of Night" and that he refuses to let anything disturb him while he's listening and watching. Since the article was' written by-of all people-Sir John Gielgud of London, noted British actor, it's no wonder that the citizens of Medford were a little surprised. Mayor Snider has but one explanation for the incident. When he was in New York City in November, he visited the CBS television studios, was allowed to watch a rehearsal of ,the program and to talk with the cast. The mayor had watched the program, which at first came on about his lunch time, enjoyed it and of course, politely told the cast he did. Among other things, the mayor was impressed to learn that a couple of the leading characters get paid $60, 000 a year just for the one show, which is described as a sort of super-duper soap opera. In the course of the conver sation the mayor remarked that he disliked being interrupted in the middle of a television program. (Who doesn't?) Mayor Snider enjoyed his glimpse back stage in a big television studio very much, spread a little gospel about Oregon's Centennial and left feeling very pleased. But now, the genial mayor is a little depressed. '"Somehow or the other," he sighed last night, "I can't help but think the quotation makes me out to be a little stupid." "What's the show about?" inquired Potpourri, who had never heard of "Edge of -Night" until a couple of subscribers called to tell us about the mayor breaking into print in a nationally circulated woman's magazine. "Darned if I know," said the mayor. "I haven't seen it for a long time. I'm too busy." Oh, yes, the mayor received a call the other day from a man who said he was going to be quoted in Time, but on another subject. Potpourri's garden is always full of surprises. If we plant something and watch over it anxiously, it usually dies. On the other hand, flowers come up that we can't remember planting. Last week we discovered a single yellow crocus in the bed of purple violets. The spot where the crocus used to be doesn't have anything growing in it right now, but we can't remember transplanting them Yesterday we walked out in the front yard and what did we see next to the Italian hyacinths but a little clump of pink violets in full bloom. And now we can't remember who gave us the violets. Last spring we found a clump of dark red tulips-very beautiful, growing in a spot where we couldn't remember planting any tulips. Sunday we must make a thorough search of every nook and cranny-of which there are many in our confused garden-for some snowdrops. We're abso lutely sure someone gave us some snowdrops, but we can't seem to find them. We love gardening, even in the every-other-weekend-hit-and-miss fashion which is about the best we can do with our schedule. Potpourri also loves this wonderful weather and we can hardly wait for the time when it is really warm and we can quit wearing a coat, eat both breakfast and dinner on the patio and sleep out under the stars. The night sky this week has been gorgeous. Maybe we'll invent an electric sleeping bag. As long as it's used mostly in the back yard in reach of an electric socket, there's absolutely no reason why it wouldn't work. Come to think of it, maybe we can convert the one we have now without too much trouble. A party given in Ashland early last winter is still a topic of conversation. There never was anything like it before in Ashland, at least - and probably never will be again. Invitations to the event were in the form of wires from New York City. The date and place Of the party were listed, but no host or hostess. And to this day, no one is sure who did start the whole idea. With the invitations some of the "guests" were asked to carry on certain duties for the party. They even took their own food. But although the question of who was responsible for the wires and the party was the main topic of conversa tion, those at the event left with as little information as they had before. "I'm sure-he - or she - was at the party, and having a wonderful time, but I haven't the foggiest notion of who it was." This statement just about sums up the verdict.-O.S. One section of 9 tables and another of 8 took part in the monthly master point play of Medford Duplicate Bridge club Tuesday night l"at Girls Community club.

Mrs. Leland Clark and Mrs. Marten served sandwiches. Guest Here A recent guest at the Alvy Bowman home, 3594 Roberts road, was Roscoe Johnson, Keene, Texas. 4 Small, fringed terry cloth hand towels make good place Alto 'mats at the children's lunch To avoid school lunch box monotony, include a salad now and again. A small cot tage cheese and canned fruit cocktail salad packed in a cov ered plastic cup makes good eating along with a sandwich. Another good combination is cole slaw and canned fruit cocktail. Lunches of this kind give - extra nourishment for growing boys and girls.
