Camp staff members and board members will act as hostesses. The camp staff is now com plete and it is believed all girls attending camp will have a fine experience as a variety of skills and crafts, including music, are being of fered by a well qualified staff, the report states. "'" ' " A pre-camp training for counselors is being offered, starting , Monday, June 29. Any' counselor who needs transportation to the camp should contact the Girl Scout office in Medford. A radio communication . system has been installed at camp for the first time this year, which will enable calls to be made to Medford in case of an emergency. In the last months this reporter has heard at least a half dozen women declare vehemently that come fall, they're go ing to start saying "no" when asked to work on drives or committees. "I just haven't the time," is the common reason.' "I'm doing so' much now; I just don't have enough time at home' said one. Another complained-that she didn't-have time any more to do any home sewing, which she enjoyed, and another said she was going to stay home and catch up on her reading. ;! - And where does the' time go? If any one knows the an swer, be sure and let Potpourri know. Yesterday Potpourri and Neighbor Jeanette pondered this business of labor-saving devices-and still no spare time. Yesterday's 'housewife car ried twood for the kitchen stove, cleaned and filled the oil lamps, carried water from a well or ptonped it from a hand pump, washed clothes on a board or used a crude hand-operated machine, probably baked her own bread, cakes and pies and sometimes milked the cow, took care of the milk and made butter, she canned and preserved hundreds of jars of fruits and vegetables. If she had to go to the store, chances are she walked. i . - . , ; - Today's housewife cooks with gas or electricity (electron ic, quick-as-a-wink cooking is already in use byanstitutions and probably will be available for homes before long); she does her washing in the automatic 'washer-dryer machines and the clothes her family wears are often of the wash-andr wear kind which has reduced ironing to a mere, nothing com pared to .'the days of the flat iron; light and heat come with the flick of a switch and -water with the turn of a handle; she can buy an entire meal at the bakery and supermarket, heat or cook it in a brief time and then throw away the con tainers. The family car whisks her to and from the super market. , ' ; ' - " ." '-' And still she doesn't have enough time to; do - everything she wants to do. . . - .'" v ' ; . Now comes a release from Chicago saying that a store architect predicts that the housewife in 1975 will travel to the food market by helicar, in order to avoid the traffic of the streets; she will tour the aisles in a radar-equipped cart mobile, and buy pre-shelled eggs in tear-open plastic boxes. She will turn-her helicar over, to an automatic parking elevator, ride a sidewlkveyor into the store and ascend to the selling areaby xampveyor or circular tube lift-" - J- If she wishes, she will be ablcto prepare the evening din ner in an electronic oven in the market's delicatessen depart ment, stick if in an automatic thermal wrapper and arrive home with a piping hot meal all ready for Dad and the kids. All this comes from the imagination of Ralph Ernst, store engineer and consulting architect of the National Association of Retail Grocers of the United States, as reported by Ever ett R. Irwin of UPI. - - But neither Mr. Irwin nor Mr. Ernst guarantee that this will result in any more spare time for the housewife. So, it's just like we asked in the beginning. Where does the time go?' ?;' . ' Pappy and Potpourri were pleased to be included among the guests at Mon Desir Monday night for the annual dinner whidh Julie Tummers gives for the Shakespearean festival company. This year the actors and directors rehearsed on Sunday and took the evening off Monday in order that the event might be given" on the . night Mon Desir is closed to the public. ' 1 As he does from time to time, CarlWerner came, down from Portland to help with the special event. Mr. Werner of the Wine Advisory. board, was wearing his bright red vest with the big gold chain and this year he has added a Cen tennial tie all aglitter with sequins. . . ... The two of us sought out David O'Brien, personable young actor who was with the festival company for the 1956 and '57 seasons and' who has returned after -spending tne; inter vening time in England with the London Academy of Music and Dramatic art. "You're taller," $aid Pappy: sizing up the young' actor; "As I remember, you were , about two irichejj shorter the last season you were here " The surprised young man admitted that although he- shoulcf jbe past. tie: growing stage, he apparently isn't and that' He liad grown two inches in height during the time away from Ashland. ;'..' It will be interesting to see and hear jthis actor do Snaker speare again after his stay in glahd'ioii' his speech .has taken on the precise, clear enunciation.wluctilso often marks the British-trained actor. He said that his studies and work in London had been difficult-that he found ..himself , working much harder than he had been required to do in his home country.-O.S.
