Research Planned On Butter Corvallis - A new research project on the chemical com pounds that give butter its unique flavor has been start ed by Oregon State college with an initial $7,560 grant from the American Dairy as sociation. Work is aimed at higher flavor levels, more uniform ity in flavor, and improved flavor stability in storage. Dr. E. A. Day of the food and dairy technology depart ment will be project leader. Working with him will be Dr. W. E. Sandine and Dr. P. R. Elliker of the bacteriology de partment. Elliker is nationally recognized for' studies in dairy bacteriology! The distinctive flavor of butter is well known to near ly everyone, but the nature of the flavor compounds and the fate of these compounds during refrigeration and stor age of the butter still needs extensive basic research, Day said. Changes in butter manu facturing methods have result ed in sweet, unripened cream butter that tends to have a bland flavor, he continued. If the exact nature of the flavor compounds can be determin ed, they can be used to im prove the flavor to the level desired. New developments in lab oratory instrumentation and micro-techniques have ad vanced research in "flavor chemistry," Day pointed out. Flavor compounds in such products as butter occur at concentrations of a few "parts per-million" and would be difficult ' to study without these recent developments. In their work, Sandine and Elliker will study various strains of bacteria used in butter-making cultures to com pare quality and quantity of flavor produced. Lutheran Circles Planning Picnics Circles of Zion Lutheran church have scheduled pic nics this week.

Persons needing transporta tion to the all-day event are to meet at the eastside of Hawthorne park at 9:30 a.m. 4 The world's first glass bot tles were made in Egypt some four thousand years ago. Photographers were all over the place when the Mail Tribune's Bob Vroman took pictures at the Jacksonville Museum Tuesday morning. He chose to do his photography on the lawn and the steps of the Museum, in order to take advantage of the sunlight, and it wasn't long before the sight of the models in the handsome old wedding gowns began to attract attention. In addition to Mr. V., Miss Claire Hanley was using her camera, one of the mothers was taking pictures and two or three tourists visiting the Museum hastened to take advan tage of the unexpected glamor ana excitement. Miss Mary Hanley, Museum curator, always has a little trouble finding someone to model the clothing in the Museum. She is sometimes fortunate enough to find a family member, such as Louise Pendleton, who is the;right size for the gown in mind. Most of the gowns were designed to be worn by a woman with a small waist, or one who was accustomed to the tightly laced corsets of the olden days. In this modern age, women don't prize a small waist, and many just can't fit themselves into the dresses. In addition to the wedding gowns, the museum collection includes some of the handmade finery and under-garments worn with the dresses. The museum staff laid out an old fashioned corset which was an object of curiosity among the young girls who were modeling, and Martha Wyatt tried it on.. Never having seen a foundation garment which had clasps and laces instead of hooks and zippers, Martha had to be aided by one of the "older girls". The slim young miss gasped for breath when first laced in, but later said "I'm getting used to it now." - Although the gown Martha modeled was not one of her family heirlooms, she is a member of a pioneer Jacksonville family. Her grandparents were married, in the U.S. Hotel in 1902, her grandmother being the former Golda Wimer, and the town of Wimer was named for the family. Martha's grandfather, Coy Watson, was brought across the plains by covered wagon when he was only a few weeks old. An uncle of her grandmother Wimer helped to build the pioneer Methodist church in Jacksonville. Editors, writes Robert O'Brien in the last issue of the Saturday Review, are notoriously poor hand writers. (Mr. O'Brien is very, very right.) He adds doctors as a close sec ond, and tells the story of a society matron who invited a doctor to a party and then was unable to read his reply. Wanting to know whether it was an acceptance or regret, she finally took it to a druggist, thinking a druggist would be just the one to read the note. The druggist, so the story goes, took the note, disappeared into the back of his shop and returned after a bit with a small bottle of medicine. "That will be a $1.25," he said briskly.-O.S. Plenty of Good Food Must for Camp Trip St. Paul,, Minn. (UPD - "Good food and plent of it gives a greater boost to family camp ing than almost any feature," a University of Minnesota home economist said. Mrs. Marie Christenson said low bulk, light weight and high nutritional value are im portant - goals for planning foods for family camping. Pre-cooked, dehydrated foods come closest to meeting these goals. Though simplicity should be the keynote, there is plen ty of room for imagination. Mrs. Christenson said. Taking advantage of food character istic of the area can make the meal "an' adventure in eat ing." For example, what bet ter way to raise a meal from the mediocre than by having wild strawberries or broiled lake trout? "But whatever you do," Mrs. Christenson said, "make sure that the foods you take on your trip fulfill the neces sary nutritional needs of the body." . Cherry Sauce for Meals Cantonese and Scandina vian recipe books feature many fruit and meat combin ation dishes. Fruit sauces add texture and glamor to every day meat dishes.. Here is a cherry sauce recipe that will perk-up ham, tongue and lamb: Put 1 cup crabapple jelly, 14 cup red wine, V tea spoon cinnamon, V teaspoon cloves and Vt teaspoon curry powder in a saucepan over a low gas flame. Stir well and cook slowly until jelly is melted. Add 2 cups pitted sweet cherries, heat, and serve. Visitor to Show Slides at CenTer Mrs. Rose Frost will show colored slides at the Senior Activity center, 601 East Jackson street, Monday, July 20, at 10 a.m. Mrs. Frost is in the valley to visit her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. K. J. Knutson, 615 North Colum bus avenue. Her pictures were taken while the traveled in southern Europe and in coun tries bordering on the Medi terranean. Pictures taken in Washing ton, D.C., at cherry blossom time will also be shown. The public is invited. Dr. Frank Roberts, leader of the Arm Chair Travel group, announces that the pic tures will continue to be shown Monday mornings dur ing July and August because of the heat. All other programs at the Center will also be held in the morning. The orchestra will meet at 10 a.m. Thurs days. 4 Meeting Planned By Sojourners; Officer Honored Medford Sojourners are to meet at the Girls Community Club, Thursday, July 23. Dessert will be followed by a business meeting and cards, including bridge, pinochle and canasta.
