8 A MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORE. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 3, I960 w omens News Social Events For tue first time in years and years, this evory-now-and-- .then gardener has all the bulbs In the ground at the proper "time this (all. Or course, the weatherman has been a great :help-so many clear, sunny fall days which made it practically 'impossible to slay inside. We not only re-planted all Ihc bulbs which we dug last spring, but bought a lot more. We meant only to buy maybe a couple of dozen, but once we visited the store, ended up by buying eight or 10 dozen. Pappy was absolutely sure we couldn't find anyplace to put them, but we did. The trouble is," ve're forever plant ing things and forgetting where they are. Sometimes, of course, this results in delightful surprises. Like the time we forgot about planting a clump of dark red parrot-type tulips. When they bloomed in the spring, it was just as if someone had made us a gift of them. The last letter from the young marricds said they would be going from Spokane to Pullman over the week end to .take the Mead High school band for Band day at Washing ton Slate university. The letter said "Kenny has been work ing very hard to develop a new marching style for the drill team based on what he learned last summer from the clinic he took. It is all precision drill working from a com pany front, and to me the most interesting part is the head "majorette. She doesn't cany a baton, but leads the group with a series of stylized motions. It looks very good." , The letter also mentioned that music instructors at the School are worried about the many scheduling conflicts which has resulted in some students not being able to en roll' in music courses they like to take. "The school is fol lowing (he entrance requirements for the University of Washington, and they are so stiff that the academic students now have only two electives in three years of school," the letter said. "That just isn't enough for anyone who wants to major in something besides science or math. It will be in teresting to sec how the schools work this out." No one can argue the importance of science and math ematics in Ihc high school and college curricula, but music and art are equally important. Who would like to live out his life in a nation where music and art must give way to science? . We're not qulle sure who or what backs the "Belter Meals Build Better Families" movement, but last week the women's editor received a copy of "What is Food" from the Bureau of Advertising, American Newspaper Publishers association, as part of the "Better Meals" program. It reads: "Food is more than proteins, vitamins, calories, Carbohydrates, and all the other vital seeds of substance. Food is the architect of the human body from infancy to old age. It is the fuel that feeds the hungry furnace concealed in every little boy and girl. 11 is the source of youth's glow ing radiance. It is the workman's arsenal of energy. It is the housewife's obedient servant- with Its infinite variety. It is the happy, colorful, fragrant, tempting honored guest of the holidays. It is the focal point of daily gatherings of millions and millions of families. It is the handiwork of nature and farmer, dairyman, rancher, manufacturer, proces sor, wholesaler, retailer and every other responsible man and woman who make up the lifeline that is the food In dusty. Indoors or outdoors; morning, noon or night It is the restorer of health, the sinew of strength, the pleasure of palate. By sunlight or candlelight, it gives mankind one of life s most beneficial delights and simultaneously renews strength of body and mind. It Is all these things and more. It is Ihe force and the source of life itself, It is the good ness of God. We "call It 'Food.' " The writer, and the advertising bureau, might well have added that "Food" is ulso something which America has more of than she needs; that "Food" is wasted In this nHlion in a manner which. is little sort of sinful when one remembers thai to many millions of people "Food" is not the restorer of health, the sinew of strength and the pleasure of the palate for the simple reason that there is hardly enough available to the average person to keep body and soul to gether.
