10 A - Come mid-summer the phone on the society editor's desk will hardly ever ring, and there won't be much mail and almost every day she'll be confronted with a large, empty space on the women s page think back to April and early was piled with stories waiting to be edited and written when the overset type was stacked high down stairs in the composing room, and when she'd go down to help with the makeup, there would almost never be enough room for the news.,,, 1 One of the problems of a newspaper is that when news '. Is light, so Is advertising, and when advertising is heavy, just as it is before Mothers' day, and graduation and the month of brides, then news ' With so much news waiting tion, we haven't had the nerve to take up any room with Potpourri. But today we re Several days ago we had a nice chat with Mrs. Clara Herring, who lives at 820 Bennett avenue. Mrs. Herring called to say that she knew Helen Adams, who has been named Teacher of the Year and had been pictured in The Mail Tribune with President Mrs. Herring met Miss Adams last summer when she was vlsitine at Shell Lake. Wise. with Mr. and Mrs. David A. sister, and since Mr. Pieper is a nephew of Mrs. Herring, they were all together for a family gathering. Mrs, Herring Is absolutely sure that Helen Adams de serves her honor as Teacher of the Year. Mrs. H. recalled that Helen has a most outstanding personality, said everyone loved her and that the family nickname for her is "Honey." . Then there was that day when we wrote about the little dandelion-eating birds we watched next door. There's no doubt that a lot of southern Oregon and northern Cali fornia residents are Interested in birds, because in no time at all we had a number of notes and calls saying that they were finches. Elizabeth Smith relayed a message through Pal Peg to say that we should read Page 180 of Peterson's book on birds, and Peg added to the message the fact that her mother had identified the birds as seed-eating finches which are common in New Mexico. "Mrs. Hornbrook," (Mrs. Harry Chapman; the Tribune's reporter there) said great flocks of the little finches had been spending some time in the fields in their neighborhood, and Mrs. Nathan Deaver called to say that many of these finches are to be found near their home on Old Stage road. . Mrs. Floyd C. Freeman wrote to say that she is an "unof ficial bird watcher", said she had seen a few of the small finches with the greenish-yellow breasts, and also described a pair of small birds with dark red upper back and upper breasts which had built a nest on the Freeman's porch in an ivy vine. Peterson identifies these as California purple finches, but adds that "purple is hardly the word; old rose Is more like it," or "like a sparrow dipped in berry juice." 'This is a very good description of those we see in our yard every spring. They invariably try to build nests in some spot where the household decides they just couldn't be allowed to remain. . . , ' 1 We also had a recent letter from Myra L. Dutton who had read about our pleasure In the little wild rose bushes we had ' found on our property, and she warned that "No neighbor will love you for your wild roses-they take over an entire pasture." Pappy says she is right, but we couldn't resist re minding him that a few bushes grew on the other side of our road for several years without spreading across, and that they seemed to be confined to a small area and even tually disappeared, Maybe ours Won't become a nuisance. About a year ago we published an article from Oregon State college which said that there are 12 or 15 varieties of sweetbriar and other wild roses in Oregon, some of which are not native, but were brought west in the early days by the settlers, and have since spread more readily than others. ,. Charles Frances Saunders, whose book about native west ern flowers we have used for half-dozen species, but that rosa mon. He adds that "No California wild flower gave greater pleasure to the pioneering Spaniards of a century and a half ago" and adds that they were often mentioned in ine manes of the early Franciscan missionaries. He concludes with the fact that a kindred species known as the redwood rose can sometimes be found in the shady woods of the Coast range, and that it is smaller and daintier than rosa californica. Helen Gilkey describes five wild roses in her Handbook of Northwest Flowering Plants, including rosa rubiginosa, the iweetbrier, which she says was an introduction from Europe, rosa gymnocarpa, (redwood) which is the "smallest and daintiest wild rose" and rosa nutkana, the "largest and most Widely distributed wild rose." . In Pappy's collection of colored pictures of wild flowers he has one of a dwarf rose growing on a hot slope high in the Siskiyou mountains. It was about four inches high and had three tiny blossomB on lt.-O.S. ,, ' PTSA Panel Discusses Applications' for Work Eagle Point-"How To Land a Job" was discussed by a panel of six at the Eagle Point Parent-Teacher-Student associ ation meeting last week.

"The Road to Matrimony" was discussed by Mrs, David Huffman, the former Misi Suedene Christian who gradu ated from Eagle Point last year, and Miss Jackie Hume, a graduating senior wno is presently engaged. The age old question "Should a bride work after she Is married" was answered by Mrs. Huff man, giving both the advan tages and disadvantages. "If the husband agrees, an em ployed wife does help greatly financially, but the responsi bilities of the home, Ironing, sewing, mending, cooking, etc., must still be met," she itated.

Sug gestions ranged from an auto matic bed mop to a non-alco holic martini, Dexter M. Keezer, who compiled the suggestions for his bosses, the McGraw-Hill companies, said that four- fifths of the, ideas came from men. But four-fifths of the ideas are primarily for the comfort and convenience of women. Gallant or Dominated? Keezer said he was turn ing over to the "sociology, psychology and biology de partments" the problem of deciding whether this meant that the men are a superla tively gallant group, or that Roosevelt PTA Unit Installs Officers installed at a meet- ng of Roosevelt Parent Teacher association Friday, May 12, were Mrs. Harry Barker, president; Mrs. Wer ner Warnholtz, vice president; Mrs. Arlon Skinner, secre tary; and Mrs. Jack Lust, treasurer.

He added that his bride. who helped him do the cata loguing, concluded that: - Women do not like house work in any form. -Men hate fallen leaves and compost piles and grass that won t grow sideways. There was quite an over lap of things wanted invented . ; . a multiple desire for some way to wash windows on both sides at once, for lightweight raincoats that don't get moist and clammy inside, for a cen tral theater ticket agency like an airlines ticket agency, non-losable golf balls, effi cient windshield wipers, dwarf or non-growing grass, and can openers for left-handed people. One employee suggested self-cleaning or throwaway sheets. Still another wanted a home dry cleaner unit that also presses. Keezer rounded up 27 sug gestions for car improvement alone. Five persons wanted improved windshield wipers, three suggested a driver con trol button for locking all doors for children's safety, and one executive wanted a gadget to pre-heat the steer ing wheel in winter. Clothing Suggestions In men's clothing, sugges tions included throwaway shirts and clamps 7m trousers to hold them up without need of a belt. - Suggestions for women's clothing included a "materni ty girdle to expand and sub sequently contract," expand able clothes for growing chil dren, adhesive for buttons (no more sewing on), and con vertible shoes so that one pair could be matched to all clothes. The list of needed inven tions for the house ran. the longest - 44 in all - and in cluded requests for a six- month floor wax that really lasts that long, inexpensive throwaway curtains and drap eries, something to keep a piano in tune, a driple'ss paint, an escape - proof con tainer for an eight-months-old baby, and a waterproof mir ror for shaving in the shower. One executive called for "an automatic blab-off on hi fi to cut out rock 'n' roll." In the beverage depart ment, suggestions were for coffee packaged in layers so that the last is as fresn as the first, and a vacuum pack cof fee container shaped so that it won't spill when emptied into the cannister.
