Centralia One of the mysteries of life is where does
the time go during a vacation? 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.

Easy Lunch
A delicious crab soup serv
ed with fresh-cucumber sand
wiches and a pretty fruit
salad will please the lean as
well as the plump members
of the household. 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.
