Travelers in 'Hunger for Eagle Point - The thirst for knowledge In European coun tries is overwhelming. Disci pline in schools or homes does not seem to be a problem. Liv ing, learning, and recreation are all home and school cen tered, and family ties are close. These were all impres sions received by Miss Mary Ann Bell of Medford during her times spent in Europe in 1954 and during the past year. As Miss Bell, a public health nurse, spoke on the panel for the October meeting of the Eagle Point Elementary Parent - Teacher association, she emphasized how much she was Impressed with the post war recovery and rehabilita tion that had taken place. The refugee problem, especially in West Germany, seemed to her to be the major one now. Dr. Leonard Mayfleld, Med ford, superintendent of School District S49C, was the other panel member, and told of the Impressions he received dur ing his trip to Russia last year. Superintendent Talks 'I want to point out to you. was his opening statement, that there would have been no period of devotion, such as the Rev. Warren Chrlstensen gave to open your meeting here tonight, had we been In Russia." He brought out the lack of religion in that country and the overpowering influence of state everywhere. The home, the school, and the lives of the individual are guided and planned from the state level. According to Dr. Mayfield, he did not get the impression that Russia was ahead of us education-wise In comparing a twelvth grade student of ours, with one of Russia's at the same grade level. Health and physical standards seemed to him, to be high. Close home life was hard because both parents work from the time a child is three years old, and housing is crowded. Both panelists brought out one impression that they felt all the peoples during their travels had in common; that was their hunger for knowl edge. Robert Work, elementary school principal, had intro duced the speakers, and acted as the moderator. Mrs, Cleo Kent, Jackson county public health nurse, gave a report on her functions in the community. Among them are well-baby clinics; immunization clinics; attempts to catch physical defects in body and teeth of school chil dren, and report to the par ents; advice In homes for care of invalid patients; calling in homes to talk over medical, mental or emotional problems; epidemic Information; and CLASSES SIGN UP NOWI As $100 as I Per Mo.

Mrs. Kent said she is in the Eagle Point community every Tues day and may be contacted by calling the school. Mrs. Kent brought word from the county office for all to be on the look-out for rabid animals, as there has been one case in Jackson county.

Style Said Reason Why Hair Tinted Chicago (UPD Gentlemen may prefer blondes, but this axiom has nothing to do with why women tint hair, says one expert. Thelma Henderson, who teaches hair-coloring tech niques finds that most wom en tint to be in style. "Or else they re talked into it by other women, she said "Once a woman decides to change her hair color, she generally does it, whether her husband likes the results or not." Husbands, who don t ap prove beforehand usually get used to the new color in time Miss Hendeson said. "So it really isn't too important to get their approval." Miss Henderson estimated that three of 10 women now uses some kind of permanent hair-coloring. Another two of 10 use rinses and "as far as the other 50 per cent are con cerned, it's only a matter of time, she said. Blondes generally star coloring their hair earlier than brunettes, said Miss Henderson. "Natural blondes often find themselves "dish- watery" around the age of 18 and start looking for some way to restore the golden look," she said. "But many dark-haired teenagers also color their hair, usually by dabbing in a blonde streak.' Gray-haired women gener ally try rinses first, Miss Hen derson said, and then go in for more permanent hair col orings. She's found that many gray-haired women particu larly like a new product that colors only the gray and re stores a natural shade to the hair. For those women consider ing a new hair-color for fall Miss Henderson advised that the latest trend is toward the sunlight colors" s oft blonde and red tones. t AppU eqate Unit Changes Meeting Applegate Valley - The meeting date of Upper Apple- gate Extension unit has been set ahead one day for No vember, and members will meet Tuesday, November 1, at the home of Mrs. Emma Duncan.

Annual Dinner Given Bv Prospect Lions MfT.anH Prnsnect LionS club held an annual dinner at Beckie's cafe recently. Fiftv members and their The executive committee oi the Lions auxiliary met Wed nesday at the home of Mrs. Victor Chapman. Homemaker's Destroyed By By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York-fflPD-Most of us women consider ourselves fairly apt at interior decorat ing. Amateurs yes, but ex perts nonethe less. I listed my self proudly among the amateur pros -until a real professi o n a 1 crossed my threshold. Gay Pauley The results left me shaken. Gone is the confidence with which for years I have argued color mixing with painters. Gone is my faith in knowing how to arrange fur niture this is indeed a blow, for I move furniture around as regularly as I get my hair shampooed. Gone too is the illusion that I always have managed to create a home setting with a "lived In" look. It all started from my staring at the interior of a four-room apartment my hus band and I have occupied for one year now. Somehow, the more I analyzed, the less I "hung together" as all good decorating schemes are sup posed to hang. The living room yawned with the emptiness of Grand Central Terminal on a Sun day morning no matter how I shuffled furniture in those "conversation groupings" the decorators always talk about The foyer, which decora tors tell you creates the first impression of the whole house, was about as inviting as a doctor s waiting room. Call for Help Husband thought there was no harm in talking with one. After all, inost decorators made no charge for the ini tial consultation. We soon found out they make up for this later either with a flat fee for each hour of advice, or the profits they make from buying at decorator discount and charging- you the retail price. So she came calling one evening a brisk, pleasant woman who wasted no time getting down to business.. That lamp " she said. pointing to the traditional floor reading lamp in one cor ner of the living room. "It has to go." 'Go where?" 1 asked, think ing she had another corner of the room in mind. 'To the Salvation Army," she replied. "That.mirror over the couch . no one hangs them there any more. It cheapens the room. Next came the analysis of window treatments. The liv ing room windows are what decorators call "problems" unusually high and wide. I'd disguised them with draw curtains off a white sheer fa bric which still let the air and light in. Women Represent Federated Club Illinois Valley Mrs. Clin ton Etherton, Mrs. John Spitz and Mrs. Eugene Denning were delegates from the Illi nois Valley Federated Wom en's club to the meeting of First district, Oregon Fed eration of Women's club, held in Medford October 20. FOR A LIMITED TIME ARTHUR ACCEPT COURSE : u J "iS sv I H- MM 320 E. Main St. O Phone SP 3-5365 ,W. G. Parks, Licensee Confidence Decorator White calls attention to them," she said, "we'll have to use a material blended with the wall tones to make the windows recede." "You need taller lamps on those end tables by the couch," she said. "How much would you in vest in new ones?" I asked her. "Good ones'll cost you $300 to $400," she said and didn't bat an eyelash. My husband choked on an olive. Final Blow She moved around the en tire apartment making sug gestions for new accessories, and firm orders that a book case in one niche had to be torn out. - "It looks homemade," she said. It was. Four weekends of my husband's sawing and painting made it. This hurt him like his mashed finger until she said, "I don't see a really good easy chair here for the man of the house. He needs one, with a hassock." He brightened, and then paled again when I asked her approximately how much all the charges would cost. "I'd say $2,500. to $3,500 for the living room alone," said the decorator. Might we mull it over? We might. "After all," she said, "you don't have to do every thing at once." Husband and I still are mulling, forced to by the present state of finances. And somehow, now as I stare around the apartment .'and think of the cost of replacing the lamps and adding a more impressive table and chairs to the dining area and new drap eries and slipcovers, I don't worry half as much about conversation groupings and a lived-ln look.
