Family Attends Yreka Reunion Hornbrook Oscar Barn um and daughter Mary Anne (Penny) attended a Barnum family reunion picnic on Sun day. Approximately 60 persons attended the event which was held at the city park in Yreka.

With their 12 children they settled first In Little Shasta, moving later to Scott Valley. The reunion was organized by Mrs. Glenn Davis, (Nee Dorothe Phelps) of Summit City, Calif., great-granddaughter of the Barnums, Mrs. Ran dolph Glass (Nee Edith Barn um), Medford, and Mrs. Haz el Hayden Owens, of Callahan Calif., both grand-daughters, and Mrs. Elta Phelps, Yreka, whose husband is a great grandson of the Barnums.

And why do wo still cling to the notion that we'll do a lot of telephoning, visit friends, shop and a dozen other things, as well as catching up on our reading? By this time we should have learned that when wc visit the family at vacation time, the days and hours will slip by and most ol the things we planned will never get done. One promise we are keeping me promise to spend a large part of every day at Sharon Home with mother. A few years ago this reporter had only the vaguest notion of what these homes variously called nursing homes, convalescent homes, etc., were like. Now we know much more about them and we strongly recommend that adults interested in respon sible citizenship visit such institutions in their areas and sec the conditions under which they are operated. Some are well run, some are not, and for many voters and taxpayers, the present-day care of the aged especially the indigent aged might come as a rude shock. Sharon Home happens to be well run the operators and the staff are efficient and kindly, and they work hind to keep the occupants and patients comfortable and well cared for even contented. It is doubtful if any are really happy Yesterday we were a guest for luncheon, and during the meal Mrs. Carlson came around with the mail. Of the five women at our table, only two received mail. "You're the lucky one today," said Mrs. Carlson, placing four cards and letters near the woman at our left. "This," said a woman across the table, "Is my weekly letter from my daughter, and believe me, I have it coming!" There was bitterness in her tone and this daughter who doesn't even manage one letter a week, had a twinge of re morse. However, Mother Swan is considered one of the most fortunate persons in the home she has two devoted daughters and a son-in-law living in the city who almost never let a day go by without spending some time at the Home. Schedules and vacations are meticulously arranged so that some family member is in the city at least part of every day. The aged, we know, are often filled with fear and lone liness. Many have no family and friends to give them care and affection. With the hours at the Home in mind, we took along an accumulation of mending, and as we sat by mother's side, changing a hem, one of the friends down the hall came by for a chat. "I can't bear to just sit and do nothing," was the answer made to any inquiry as to what the visitor was doing. "The time may come when you will be forced to sit and do nothing," said the voice from the wheelchair. One of the women writers on the New York Times staff took it upon herself not long ago to tell visitors to the city what clothing is suitable to wear on a hot summer day in New York. She warned against pastels and white shoes and clothing, said under no consideration should any woman go down town in a city wearing shorts, slacks or any other form of trousers, was equally adamant about low-cut sun dresses, said only the very young should ever go without hose. She recommended a dark sheath-type dress with a jacket or bolero as ideal. The sketches which accompanied the article showed two females wearing such ensembles, complete with hat and gloves. She should have been in Portland Wednesday; Tuesday was hot in Portland, and the Weather bureau had warned that Wednesday might be a torrid 100 degrees, which is terrible in that city. Potpourri was on the streets early, when hundreds of girls and women of all ages were going to work. Most of them looked crisp and smart -and cool. Their dresses were for the most part the wash variety, they were definitely low and sleeveless, many wore sandals without stockings and there wasn't a hat to be seen. Come to think of it. we did see some hats they were a uniform-type head covering worn by a group of women we met. All these women wore navy blue uniforms with white collars and cuffs and the matching hats. During the lunch hour, the dining room of the New Heathman hotel was crowded with women and the society editor of The Mail Tribune was the only one wearing a hat and white gloves. In the big department stores it was the same. For every woman dressed in a suit or shirtwaist dress and wearing hat and gloves and hose, they were 10 wearing shorts, capri pants, halters, brief sun tops or at best, cotton skirts and blouses. Even some of the saleswomen were dress ed for comfort and not custom. (No shorts or trousers, of course). Before the day was over, the society editor, whose cotton suit was soaked with perspiration and whose feet, encased in black patent leather pumps and nylon hose of the type approved by the New York Times staff writer, were hot and swollen, wished she'd had the good sense to wear a cotton sun' dress with very little under it and some flat shoes. So there. Brother-in-law Henry tells this one: Two small boys, pondering over what to do with a bird which had dashed itself to death against a window, were told by their mother to put it down on the beach where the tide would carry it away. They did so, and returning a short time later found the creature gone, even though the water had not been that high on the beach. The older brother offered the opinion that the bird had gone to heaven whereupon the smaller boy thought at length and then said, wistfully, "I wish I'd been here. I'd have like to see something go to heaven." O.S. P.S. As this is being written, (on an imported typewriter from Switzerland which the staff of this store praise highly) there was minor excitement about a balloon floating in the air above the town. Five of us went out, from time to time, to gaze skyward. Somehow or the other, we each offered an opinion as to the size, as it appeared to each. Sister Peg thought it was about the size of football, Potpourri thought it was the size of a wash tub, one of the clerks said no, it was much smaller than, Sister Sylva said why, for heaven's sake, it isn't any bigger than a grapefruit and Henry said, now look here, those weather balloons are at least six feet long and besides that, they aren't round at all. We don't know what this proves, but it must prove something. l ' ! I r ' v . t , U"' Pi uIlM4 aov-i' .;,:$. :.--tsi . i s t.t ;. it- aml -ar-rT Mr. and Mrs. Fred A.

For the soup, combine one can of cream of asparagus soup with one can of cream of mush room soup. Add l'i soup cans of skim milk and heat for 15 minutes over medium heat. Turn the heat low and add one cup of flaked crab meat, VS teaspoon Worcester shire sauce and a tablespoon of sherry. Garnish with finely cut chives or scalllon tops. Easy Egg Shelling What makes some hard cooked eggs so difficult to shell? Home economists say the chief reason is improper cooking. They recommend covering the eggs in a sauce pan filled with cold water. When the fater comes to a fast boil, turn off the heat and let the pan remain on the burner, covered for 30 minutes. Drain off the hot water, cool the eggs quickly with cold water. The eggs will peel easily and there will be no dark ring around the yolk. Announcing ... DR. PAUL D.
