We Salute Our Town! : Group Gathers At Schoolhouse Central Point-For several years, the old Willow Springs schoolhouse has been the set ting for a traditional com munity potluck dinner and so cial evening. Such an event was held there recently, with "Mr. and Mrs. Cleo Young acting sis hosts. Mrs. Carroll Stevenson had decorated the tables for the occasion with garlands of ivy and pink and white candes. Mrs. Anna Wolff made the coffee. Community residents have come to count on her early appearance at the din ners to prepare coffee for everyone. Following the dinner, Del mar Smith conducted a bus iness meeting. The group considered farming an asso ciation. ' This action was deemed wise for legal pur poses. About forty attended the meeting.

Many foods are enriched in flavor and nutrition out of all proportion to cost if an egg is added to them. Try these and see-an egg stirred into hot mashed potatoes-an egg stirred into hot cereal. Wild Life Pictures Scheduled Probably history doesn't record what master first named his dog, "Fido," or how long ago this took place. But many dogs have been called "Fido," in fact so many that the name is almost a synonym for the dog. .Our education didn't include Latin, or we would have found out why Fido is considered such a fitting name for a man's best friend. Because Fido is the Latin word for "faithful." Trying to be helpful, the Pet Food institute suggests that those trying to find suitable names for their pets, use their imagination and perhaps do a little research before selecting a name. If you've purchased a big watch dog to guard the house, name him Gregory-it means "watchful." The institute sug gests Abigail, "source of delight," for playful dogs. Many Irish setters are named "Red," so the institute sug gests that one be a little more imaginative and use either Rouge, Rory or Brick. The institute says that if the dog is a toy French poodle, a name such as Chosette, which means "little thing," might be suitable. If the dog is a Scottish terrier, consider Randy, for "tough beggar;" if you buy a Chihuahua, call him Gitano, which means Gypsy, and a Siamese cat could well be named Som Phong, which the institute says means a chip off the old block. . I Another bit of advice from the experts: keep the name short and snappy, and always speak clearly to a pet when you approach, particularly when you are endeavoring to train a new pet. If you always speak his name when offer ing food, the animal will soon associate the name with food j and will come when called. Pappy and Potpourri held a christening ceremony last week. In the back yard Potpourri sprinkled a tablespoon of champagne on the bumper of the little car which is our latest acquisition, and Pappy intoned the name. Then we folded ourselves inside and wheeled merrily down town. Our past experience with christenings has been confined to infants, but we've read that when a ship is named, someone breaks a bottle of champagne over the bow. If anyone whammed a bottle on our little English car, it would prob ably be mortally wounded. It just happened, however, that the family refrigerator held what must be the smallest con tainer of champagne ever bottled-a gift from a friend in a whimsical mood. So the last spoonful in the bottle was sprinkled on the car, the two,of us having decided that if only one bottle is required for a big ship, a teaspoonful would be about right for Doll T. That's what Pappy named the car. He didn't get the name from the Pet institute, either. It's very high class. Shakespeare, as a matter of fact. We aren't the only ones to christen a car. Paul and Frances Bulkin recently held a christening ceremony for their new small car, but FB failed to tell us what name they chose. Having bought the car, Potpourri now has to learn how to handle it. When we drove it away from the garage, Mr. S. looked a trifle dubious. He waved one hand weakly and said "happy landings" in a doubtful tone. But we made it home, with a stop at the grocery store en route. We discovered that the little thing bounds forward-eagerly, so being a timid driver, we use the accelerator sparingly. Somehow, the pattern of the gear shift doesnt seem so complicated, and we think we will soon be accustomed to sitting so low and having to watch the road a considerable distance out front. But one problem hasn't yet been solved. We can't disembark properly, particularly from the driv er's seat. There's no trouble getting in. One just turns one's back on the car, sits down, twists the body and folds in the feet and legs. Very simple. But one can't reverse the pro cedure and get out. Of course, we extricate the body eventu ally, but not in exactly what could be called a graceful or lady-like fashion. But there's always a solution to these minor problems. On the whole we have the notion that Pap py, Potpourri and Doll T. are going to have a lot of fun to gether. Last Tuesday we took a couple of extra tranquilizer pills, a bunch of notes and some exhibits and attempted to teach a class in news writing. The class may not have learned very much, but we found it stimulating and interesting. The instruction sort of trickled off into informal discus sion toward the end of the period, and before it broke up, Russ Jamison, in charge of the course in public relations, offered a story as column material. A Medford firm shipped a carload of lumber recently, with Philadelphia as the des tination. The car arrived, was opened- and soon thereafter word came back to the Medford company asking "whose cat was shipped with the lumber?" The Philadelphian said he was told that in spite of 13 days incarceration, the cat leaped quickly out of the car and disappeared before the startled workers could do anything. O.S. Dr. Earl Johnson will show colored slides of African wild life at the Senior Activity center Monday, February 15, at 1 o'clock.
