The "fountain of youth" at Rogue Valley Country club
ran dry last Saturday evening before Pappy and Potpourri
arrived. The fountain, set up by Dr. and Mrs. Bruce Stan
ley and the James Sheldons for the club's "Ship Wrecked"
party, bubbled forth such a magic potion that the eager
guests drank it dry in no time at all.
Even if it was dry, the fountain still looked cool and
attractive. Set up on the terrace outside the clubhouse
door, the committee arranged it in a setting of rocks, moss,
plants and seaweed and arranged somehow for the punch
to bubble out the top and trickle down over silver foil
to a pool at the bottom. .
' Mrs. Darrell Miller and Mrs. Lee Flink, dressed as
island girls in grass skirts and leis, ladled out the punch for
the thirsty guests.
The clubhouse had been quite transformed by the Shel
dons and the Stanleys. Fish nets, glass floats, chests spilling
forth gold coins, artistic drift wood pieces and seaweed
were arranged everywhere. In this interesting setting
strolled club members wearing all manner of costumes.
Mrs. Edward Sickels wore a colorful sarong, Mrs. Sheldon
had on a blue and white sun dress with a lei of fresh
flowers and Mrs. Stanley, who said she didn't have time
to change her clothing after working at the clubhouse all
'" day, had on pedal pushers, a striped jersey and a straw
hat with fruit on it. Mr. Sheldon achieved a light-hearted
mood by wearing a brand new gaudy night shirt with little
" cap to match. v
Others also chose to believe that they had been "ship
wrecked" after retiring for the night. The R. E. Menckes were
among these, with Mrs. Mencke wearing a frothy gown
and negligee, and. her husband the last word in warm
, weather short pajamas with plunging neckline.
Mrs. Allan Holmes wore a sarong and went to the
, trouble of dying her hair black and leaving it uncombed.
' One friend said admiringly, "She looked just real witchy."
Over all this gaiety Jimmy Dunlevy, club manager,
presided with a benevolent air wearing blue denims, a
close-fitting jersey and an admiral's hat. Or maybe it was
a fireman's hat.
Actress Ginger Rogers told Potpourri last week that she
will leave the Rogue valley soon in order to prepare for
rehearsals of a new stage play. Miss Rogers, who with her
,, mother, Mrs. Lela Rogers, has been spending a vacation at
their ranch on the Rogue river, has signed for the leading
role in "Pink Jungle."
This is the latest play of Leslie Stevens and is the story
of a business woman who fights for the presidency of a
large cosmetic' firm. Stevens also wrote 'The Marriage-Go-Round"
which is playing on Broadway now with Charles
Boyer and Claudette Colbert in the leads.
"Pink Jungle" will be directed by Joseph Anthony. Some
thing new will be tried with this piece - it will be rehearsed
and opened in San Francisco, and then taken to New York
' later. Miss R. says that this will 'be the first time she has
ever opened a play in the Bay City, but the director and
backers are hopeful because S.F. has the reputation of being
a good show town.
.Ginger said present plans call for rehearsals to start in
. September and for the show to open in San Francisco in late
October or early November. It will be booked at the Alcazar.
There's always a new fish story going the rounds and
yesterday John Parsons contributed the latest one heard
around the news room. Mr. Parsons, son-in-law of Seth (Sat
urday) Bullis, said that recently he went fishing and came
back with a real good catch 12 or 15. good-sized fish.
Weary from his labors, Mr. Parsons put the fish down in
the kitchen and took himself off to another part of the house
for a nap. When he returned an hour later, the fish were
gone. One of the Parsons children had put the whole kit and
kaboodle down' the disposal. Seems the culprit doesn't like
fish.-O.S.
Precautions Against Accidents
Urged By Public Health Service
By LOUIS CASSELS .
United Press International
Wasnjngton-rtlPD-Nearly 16 million American children-one out tf every three youngsters
under 15-were injured last year in accidents.
This does NOT include minor wounds treated at home with love-and-liniment. It includes
only injuries serious enough to send a child to a doctor, or to keep him out of school one
or more days.

It also includes 15,000 fatal
accidents.
Studies by the U. S. Public
Health service show that a
third of the fatal accidents,
and more than half the non
fatal accidents, occurred while
children were in the supposed
"safety" of their homes.
Most accidents could have
been prevented if parents had
taken reasonable precautions,
said Dr. Leroy E. Burney, sur
geon general of the Public
Health Service.
To cut down accidents
among children, the Public
Health Service and the Chil
dren's Bureau made a list of
safety tips for parents..
Saefty Rules
Here are some recommends
tions:
Use high shelves or locked
cupboards to store lye, bleach
es, garden sprays, rat bait,
kerosene, insect powders, am
monia, permanent wave solu
tions, turpentine, moth crys
tals, cleaning fluids, and fur
niture polish. About 600,000
children, mostly under age
two, are poisoned each year
by swallowing household
poisons.
Keep knives, icepicks, scis
sors, needles and other sharp
utensils out of reach. .
If. you store lawnmowers,
hedge .clippers, saws or ma
chinery in your garage or
basement, keep the doors
closed.
When cooking, turn the
handles of pans on the stove
away from the front, so that
a child can't pull them over.
When young children are
about, use table mats instead
of tablecloths that hang over
the table edge. A toddler's tug
may bring hot coffee or soup
down on him.
An adult should be present
when small children play in
bathtubs to prevent scalding
or drowning.
Keep matches out of reach
of young children. Teach old
er children to use matches
safely.
Keep stairs free. Teach chil
dren to put away toys that
might cause falls. Avoid high
polish on floors. Small rugs
should have non-skid backing.
Teach children to have a
healthy fear of moving vehi
cles and to cross streets only
at crosswalks with the traffic
light. Before crossing a street
with your child, remind him
to look in both directioris-
don't let him depend on you
to look. Always make sure no
child is playing in the drive
way before backing out a car.
Then check again.
Drain Bottles
Drain old medicine bottles
down the toilet before throw
ing them away.
Never keep sleeping pills,
aspirin, poisons or drugs in
unlocked bathroom cabinets.
If you use flavored medi
cines, be sure to tell your
child it is medicine. Don't
trick him into thinking it's
candy.
Never leave a sleeping child
alone in the house, even for a
few minutes.
Check window screens an
nually to make sure they are
fastened securely and the wire
is not rusted.
String clotheslines so high
that children cannotvrun into
them.
If you have Venetian blinds',
cut open the. loop at the end
of the cords to eliminate the
chance of a child getting his
head caught in a noose. (You'd
be surprised hpw often it hap
pens.) Buy electric appliances that
bear the safety label of Under
writers Laboratories. Replace
worn cords promptly. Tape
over unused electric outlets
within a child's reach. Don't
use portable electric heaters
in bathrooms.
Inspect toys frequently to
be sure they have not become
dangerous from use. Don't put
a child to bed with playthings
