AND MOT A WASH-DAY PROBLEM Wednesday, Oct. 7, 1959 Israeli Stamps Topic for Club Mrs. Roy E. Carley spoke on and displayed- her- collec tion, of Israeli stamps and covers at a recent meeting of Southern Oregon Stamp club. Israel became a nation on May, 14,.1948 and started is suing stamps the same year. The high value of this first set, ' picturing twa ancient coins, has been extensively counterfeited as it is present ly ; selling for around $100, Mrs. Carley said. : Each year Israel issues a set of stamps to commemorate its independence, and another set to ionor the Jewish New Year.. Many of its stamps carry Bible quotations either on the stamps themselves or on the sheet margins'. : Mrs. C a r 1 e y pointed out that Israel's . commemorative stamps are only sold for a lim ited period of time, after which the remainder is de stroyed. This tends to make some of these. issues rather scarce and expensive to ac quire, Mrs. Carley said. Her mounted collection is com plete so all those who attend ed were able to see the stamp issues of this nation in their entirety. . ' Mrs. Carley's niece and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest M c E I r o y, " Portland," were guests at this meeting. ..Refreshments were served by Mrs. Ralph Moore, Clyde Smith and Elmer Binker Jr. : -. : Wail Washing Hints Given by Painters Chicago - (CPU A bride complained that it is more ex pensive to" paint a wall than wash it, but at least the results can be predicted from ' paint ing.

New York - (HTNS). Last year some of the . London pa pers took Queen Elizabeth .11 gently to task for the type of music performed at -her receptions. It riled the Brit ished, who look-back upon a proud past of "official" cere monial music, that their well educated young Queen should have such mediocre taste, and that she should be unaware of some of . the magnif icient traditions that surround court functions. The papers tactful ly refrained from comparing her musical taste with that of her predecessor of the same name, though they could have pointed out that Good Queen Bess was indeed a connoisseur;. I don't have to mention the magnificience of the court mu sic at Versailles, every one knows about that,, but Vienna, Dresden, Madrid, St. Peters burg, and other seats of gov ernment always saw to it that on important- state functions representative music, should be heard ..instead - of. mere facile entertainment.. What they do these days in Madrid or Berlin I do not know, but in Moscow they usu ally put on a first class musi cal demonstration whenever they want to entertain vyisit ing dignitaries. As to our own White House, last week '; the newspapers again reported in detail the artistic fare '.on ;a state occasion in Washington, and it does not make for heartwarming reading. ' Tradition Envisioned - -' - Lest anyone counter- with the " usual argument that '. we don't go in for royal trap pings, that we have never em ployed at the White i House what a : hard-bitten Jacobite 200 years ago caljed ."a .lousy band of foreign - fiddlers," I should like to state at the out set -that the founders of the Republic did envision the cre at on of such, a tradition and Date of School v Is October 14 " Announcements concerning the annual school instruction for clubr reporters,., held , each fall by the women's depart ment . of The Medford- Mail Tribune, are going out to or ganizations this week. -.-';; v: , The school is set -forCWed-nesday, October ,14, at 2 pjn; at the Red Cross building on Hawthorne street. v .'

Thomas Jefferson, a man of great culture, was a pretty good violinist who . played duets with Patrick Henry. "Doctor" Franklin played on half a dozen instruments, was inventor of a seventh, and also wrote some penetrating obser vations that can be put down as the first American musical criticism.' There were many other American gentleman; musicians who were respect able amateurs, but I am sing ling out Jefferson and Frank lin because they were con vinced that this ' country should emulate the state func tions they had witnessed in Europe. They saw no reason why only a monarchy should have the privilege of putting its best artistic foot forward when the nation's .prestige was involved. .

Dacriar Social ihent guests. The. occasion was an important one, for . time and again it has been claimed that the Russian Premier was invited principally to see for himself the United States, its people, its institutions and its culture. , . . . Music Puzzling V -. . The - comrades must have been properly impressed , by our standard of . living: gold plates to sop up the gravy from, sterling silver knives to lick, crystal glasses to slurp from, the highest in the cult nary arts, beautuul . flowers, everywhere and the most ex pert service by waiters "whose wages would be the envy of our -college professors. All this was doubtless overwhelming, but the music which accompa nied this splendid blowout must have been puzzling to them - and to a good many of the Americans present. ' During the dinner the . fa mous Marine Band ' played what the papers called "class ical. Russianv airs Prokofiev, Sa'ostakovitch and Rimsky Korsakov, as well as songs from ". Broadway . musicals.". This was a little" ambiguous, for 'one cannot- tell whether the ' "classical, airs" were meant for the Russians, the Broadway ditties for the Americans, or vice versa. But the "formal part of the evening clarified the artistic policies. After dinner," the distinguish ed company was treated to a concert by Fred Waring and his - workers' and peasants' chorus in the following pro sram: "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning.". "Zippity Doo bah," "H a p p y Wanderer," "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Life." "Over the Rainbow," etc. ; Now I have, of course, no quarrel with any one's private musical taste. . If he , prefers "Zippity Doo Dar" to a Schu bert song that is his unques tioned privilege - but not on an' occasion:' such as a state dinner. There were quite a fewv persons in the assembly who must have been acutely embarrassed, and there were also undoubtedly some Rus sians who know the difference between popular " f ingles and art," :' ' ' - sulting architect, an arbiter for etiquette, it uses the best L interior decorators, it does not hang, chromos on the walls, and 6f course it does not call in the short order cook from the nearest diner to plan the menu; for the meal. Would it hot be proper to have a "Mas ter pf the President's Music" to be consulted for ceremoni al occasions ' so that such a primitive cultural demonstra tion "might be . avoided? It would not cost a red cent , to the. taxpayer and even Rep. Rooney would agree to it, be cause any distinguished Amer ican musician would gladly as sume the office as a matter of patriotic duty. : Events Timepiece Must Do More Than Just Keep Time By MARGUERITE DAVIS United Press International Chicago - (LTD - The interior decorator, professional or am ateur, can expect more from a timepiece than just the time of day, says a clock manufac turer, Howard Miller. A recent display of Miller clocks, included almost every shape and design that come to mind. A bubble clock for men is mounted on a two-drawer wal nut chest to be used for stor ing cuff-links, wallet, hand kerchiefs, and small change. It can rest comfortably on an executive's office desK or on a dresser at home. Other dual purpose clocks include one with a planter, and another in the shape of a banjo that doubles as a letter holder. The familiar faces have changed, too. A moaern adaptation of the grandfather clock uses tiny gold keys for the numbers. They key motif is continued in a large walnut case with various shaped keys painted behind a brass penaulum. But the W estminsier chimes which note the hours are unchanged. A replica of the old fash ioned school clock is octagon shaped with large black Ara bic numerals. The clocks come in a wide . variety of materials - leather, brass, copper, aluminum, plex iglass, tortoise shell, steer and myrtle burl. "Shopping for a clock should be fun, if you forget it is a necessity. Look for one you will enjoy watching," Mil ler said. , Officers Elected By Hilltoppers Hilltoppers Square Dance club elected officers at, the October business meeting Monday, October 5, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. E.

These toppings for desserts are packed under pressure of harmless gas and are fluffed and aerated as they are dis pensed from the, can, FDA expxamea. standards a r e needed, because there are many variations in the com position and label names of market products sold for the same general purpose, the agency said. "Whipped cream," under today's proposals, would have to contain at least 30 per cent of milk fat, by weight. This is the minimum requirement in the existing standard for "whipping cream." Not more than one half, of one per cent of the contents of a can would con sist of one or more of the fol lowing emulsifying ingredi ents, added to aid the whipping process: Extract of Irish moss, locust bean gum, karaya gum, algin (sodium alginate), gelatin, monoglyc erides or diglycerides (or both) of fat-forming fatty acids except lauric acid. ' "Whipped , table cream" would h-.ve to contain at least 18 per ce it by .weight of milk fat and ntft moV than six- tenths of one per cent of the emulsifying ingredients.. The existing standard for "table cream" requires a minimum of 18 per cent milk fat. Nitrous oxide or a mixture of nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide would be permitted or optional ingredients in both products as " whipping and propelling agents, accord ing to the proposals Under industry proposals for both products, if sweeten ers or flavors are used the la bels would so indicate.
