MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. UA Sunday, Jan. 17, 1960 Gem Glub Conducts Ceremony (juicers lor laeu were in stalled at a recent meeting of Roxy Ann Gem and Mineral club. These included Frank Otis president; Edgar Shoupe vice-president; Delmar Smith, secretary; and Peter Able, treasurer. Mr. Otis appointed commit tees for the coming year, They are membership, Mrs Edwin Dusenbury, director. and Mrs. Edgar Shoupe; field trips, Edgar Shoupe, director, Peter Able and J. A. Harri son; program and publicity, Elmer Binker, director, Del- mar Smith, and Frank Otis; refreshments, Mrs. Frank Otis, director, and Mrs. J. A, Harrison; ways and means. Leland Mentzer, director, and Trevelle Turpin; auditing, John Bowdish, director, and Edwin Dusenbury; displays, John Dodge, director, and Walter Emerson. Mrs. John Dodge will con tinue in charge of special dis plays. ;The more than 50 members and guests present heard Del mar Smith, owner of the Cra ter Hock museum, tell how to use small pieces of gem mate rial, including nodules and limb casts, In lapidary work. The technique of casting them in plaster and slabbing the resulting block, as well as the use of a tumbler for sanding and polishing was explained. Mr. Smith illustrated his talk with examples of mate rial in various stages of completion. In addition he showed a se ries of colored slides pictur ing gem and mineral localities in the Pacific Northwest, tell ing as he did how to reach these areas as well as what could be found. Mrs. Dodge announced that the display of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Turner, Trail, in the U.S. National bank had been replaced by one from the col lection of Leroy Tompkins, Talent. This new exhibit fea tures agatized coral from Florida and cabachons of vari ous gem materials. Honorary life memberships were awarded to Bruce Man ley, local attorney, and his sister, Mrs. Mary Davenport, for their services to the club. Interested persons may ob tain information concerning this club and its activities by calling the president, Frank Otis, SPnnz 2-5644, or the secretary, Delmar Smith, NOrmandy 4-1355. The surplus wheat pur chased by the government as part of the farm price-support program would fill a railroad train 5,335 miles long. For some reason or the other," reports of the first per formance of "Elijah" record that the musicians all wore full evening dress. Why this should have been considered unusual, we do not know. The.first performance was given in Birmingham, England, August 26, 1846. The composer, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, conducted the program and we further learn that he wore white gloves. When the oratorio is performed in this country in the evening, the evening dress custom prevails. However, it seems that the con ductors are not given to wearing white gloves. Richard D. Werner, who will conduct today's performance of "Elijah" at the Medford High school auditorium, usually dignifies his programs by wearing formal clothing, a custom which this reporter enjoys. Furthermore, we enjoy watching and hearing an orchestra, or chorus, with the musicians "dressed up." When the Portland Symphony orchestra played in Medford recently, the women of the orchestra wore black and white costumes with long skirts and white vestees which presented a neat and effective appearance on stage. ' . The children of the royal house of England were in the news in recent aays. me press in London recorded that Prince Charles, 11, held his first cocktail party and that his sister, Princess Anne, 9, was bridesmaid at a wedding. Reporting from London, UPI quoted the Empire News as to details on the cocktail party. The story said the party was for adults, and that Charles, with the queen's consent, ordered the drinks from the cellar and supervised the prepar ation of the food. The menu included "beer and spirits" the story said, but added that the young prince drank only a glass of orange juice. The news which Princess Anne made will cause fewer lifted eyebrows. From the village of Romsey the UPI dispatch said that for the wedding the princess wore the unlikely combination of "dainty white organdy lined with rugged flannel." The lining was thoughtfully put in because the wedding, that of Lady Pamela Mountbatten to David Hicks, London interior decorator, took place in an 800-year-old "drafty abbey." News released about the wedding said that for once the bride wasn't the center of attention. She had to share at tention with Princess Anne, the queen mother, the Duke of Edinburgh, Princess Margaret, Prince Charles and dozens of lesser royalty. Queen Elizabeth could not attend since she has cancelled all engagements in anticipation of the birth of her third child. The bride's gown was described as "softly glowing satin trimmed with white mink." Turning poet, the UPI writer concluded his story with this paragraph: "Gently falling snow had trimmed the little village in white, making it look like the top of an elaborate wedding cake." Here's a story which came all the way from Madrid to the New York Times. A banker, asked by his teen-aged son to define "inflation" and "stabilization" pondered a moment and then said: "When you think of inflation, my son, you think of champagne, caviar, beautiful girls. When you think of stabilization, on the other hand, you must think of beer, cold cuts and your mother."-O.S. Meetings Slated For Two Units Two home extension units have scheduled meetings this week.
