Memorial day the William Blllie, were out by the horse barn at their place on An derson creek when the family dog, nosing around in the barn's tack room, began to bark and fuss. Mrs. Preston investigated and seeing a humming bird hovering back and forth through the open window, she ordered the dog outdoors. As soon as the animal left the room, the little bird flew to a loop of rope hanging In the tack room and settled down. Looking closer, Billie discovered that the bird had built her nest in the loop a nest about the size of a 50-cent piece. The big rope loop had a saddle hung from it in the wintertime. The excited Prestons immediately decided that Madame Hummingbird should have and closed and locked the stray cats and the dog. The the window.

The Prestons moved to the Anderson Creek place last fall, and are practically ecstatic about their new home. They have a log house and a patio, with Anderson creek flow ing directly by the patio. Why do Americans join so many groups? Is it to find themselves, or lose themselves? According to Frederick J. Rarig, president of the board of directors of International Mouse in Philadelphia, It is both. x Mr. Rarig told this to a meeting of the Child Study Association of America. "We join organizations either to discharge our respon sibilities or to avoid them; either to develop ourselves or to avoid developing ourselves; either to hasten maturity or to postpone it; either to discover ourselves or to avoid discovery." Mr. Rarig believes. Calling his talk the "Illusions and Ideals of Belonging" Mr. Rarig was quoted as saying that "immature persons seek affiliation with organizations that promise identity, certainty and relief from the responsibility of making in dividual decisions." Interestingly enough, he assailed "a pattern of collectives emerging both in the so-called munist world" and declared beings is the same. "They become subordinated seek security in the midst of organizations that gives status freedom, he believes. Terming this "new feudalism" Mr. Rarig said it can be overcome by working with "healthy affiliations which en able one to accomplish an objective that he sets for him self. The organization then becomes a means to an end, not an end in itself." Potpourri wouldn't mind smoothing out some of the wrinkles in the editorial face, but not the way described in an ancient recipe. It reads "Heat an Iron shovel red hot, throw on it some powder of myrrh and receive the smoke on your face. Then heat the shovel again and when fiery hot, pour on it a mouthful of white wine. Receive the vapors thereof on your face and repeat three times." But then, this is probably not half as bad as what women go through with now when they have their faces "lifted." A few years ago this process of de-aging the face was used, but was sort of undercover business. Now, na tional magazines publish features, with before and after pictures. O.S. Every Child Should Have Early Eye Examination By CLAIRE COX United Press International New York-lUPU-Every child should have a professional eye examination as soon as he is ready for school, the Better Vision institute says. But the number of young sters who actually are taken to doctors for careful eye tests Is insignificant, said August A. Nelson, executive director of the 30-year-old public cdu cation organization. "Some schools have screen ing checks for children," he said in an interview, "But they are superficial. They read a chart, but all this tells you is whether a child can see at a distance. Nothing is disclosed about coordination or of all sorts of possible dif ficulties. "Parents think the mailer is being taken care of because of these checks and do not do anything about it, when actu ally every person between 6 and 20 years of age should have an examination every year." Nelson's Job Is to oversee an educational program fi nanced with $750,000 in an nual dues paid by eye spe cialists, optometrists, optici ans and members of the opti cal industry. He said that persons 20 to 45 should have eye examina tions every two years. When a person reaches 45, he should return to annual eye tests, he said. The institute is most con cerned with children at pres ent. Experts in the vision field feel that if parents of young children are convinced that 1 WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6. 1962 Prestons, known as Bill and privacy in her family affairs tack room door to keep out bird comes and goes through '.- Keun Knackstedt and his free world and in the Com' that its effect on human to huge organizations. They chaos by pledging fealty to at the expense of personal eye examinations are ncces sary, the idea of having reuu- lar tests eventually will be accepted by the entire popu lation. Said Nelson, "There is a great deal of evidence, some of it the result of formal research, the rest gained through experience over many years, that even in the United States, presumably the most advanced country in the world, the great bulk of the people are taking for granted even minimum care of their eyesight. "Either they just don't know they can do something, they encounter psychological barriers, or they simply take it for granted Nelson said there are three basic reasons no one can de termine for himself how well he sees. They are: There is no standard of reference. An individual has no objective way to compare how he sees with the vision of others. Except in extreme cases, vision defects do not produce pain. A person knows when he has a toothache but he may not realize that head aches or tension are being caused by eye difficulties. Changes In vision usually occur so gradually and over such a long period of time that the Individual Is unable to detect them. In the case of children, they are still learning to use their eyes when they are ready for school. Nelson said. There is no way for them to know if anything is wrong and only a medical expert Scholarships Awarded To Graduates A release from the Univer- slty of Oregon states that two Jackson county students have been awarded University of Oregon Mothers' club scholar ships. The two young women are Miss Nola Jean Shurt left, who will be graduated from Medford High school Thurs day night, and Miss Nancy Joylen Seiber, who was grad uated from Phoenix High school last week. Miss Shurtleff is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Shurt leff, 1860 Archer drive. Her Mothers' club scholarship is for $300. In addition the stu dent has been offered an Elk Lumber company scholarship to Lewis and Clark 'College or Willamette university. She will enroll next fall at either the University of Oregon' or Lewis and Clark in mathe matics and foreign language. Miss Seiber, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Seiber, plans to attend the University of Oregon. Her scholarship was for $500. She also re ceived' a Carpenter scholar ship for $300 and a partial tuition scholarship from the Oregon System of Higher Edu cation. She has been yell queen, is a member of the Na tional Honor society, Quill and Scroll and Was on her high school debate team. Checklist Given For Car Checkup It s getting to be that time of year again - spring clean ing time. Soon you'll feel the urge to turn out closets, wash woodwork and change cur tains and drapes. When this happens, it's also time to get the car in shape for warmer weather, and chances are you will be the one who takes it down to the garage for spring summer tuning. Here's a checklist of "things to. get done" to the oar from Jean Kinkead, women's con sultant to The Travelers In surance companies. This might serve as a guide to making out your own list to hand to the garageman when you turn the car over to him. Have snow tires remov ed, checked and stored in a cool place for the summer. Have anti-frceze drained out of the radiator. (Ask the man to check the tag to be sure you don't have one of the new permanent ones that last for two seasons or more.) The radiator should be flush ed out and a rust Inhibitor added with the clean water. If you have an air-conditioner on your car the anti-freeze shouldn't be removed even in summer. The front wheel bearings should be repacked with grease and adjusted. Ask for a report on the condition of the brake linings which are exposed during this operation. Have the air filter clean ed or replaced with disposable type. This is just as important as changing the paper bag in your vacuum cleaner. Windshield wiper blades should be checked and re placed, if necessary. Dirty blades will streak the glass during summer showers. Hot weather is hard on tires. Have them inspected for adequate treads and to de tect cuts, bruises and lumps. Have the pressure checked before loading up the car to go on long trips or take jun ior and the trunk to camp. Get the car cleaned in side and out. Many of the new er automobile finishes don't require wax, but a good body polish will work wonders. A spring-summer engine tunc-up is a good economy move because of increased usage of the car in the months to come. Car performance falls off when vital parts wear, and a seasonal tuning is like a spring tnnlc - it restores pep and saves on gas bills. Leave Mr. and Mr. Helming Jen sen of Orinda, Calif., were visitors last week at the home of Mr. Jensen's sister, Mrs. Ella Jensen, 89 Fair Oaks drive. They were on their way north to visit the Seattle World's Fair.

"Most parents probably will admit that vision deficiency can interfere with a child's ability to read and learn, and to participate In play and games." he said. "Too many of them, though, ignore their children's eyesight until some thing serious happens. It's & problem they don't like to face." Social Events Correct Shoes Important For Youngsters at Camp Your youngster's summer camping days should be fancy free, but not altogether foot loose. Camp directors report that footwear and foot care are among the chief concerns at boys' and girls' camps. The reasons for this are bruised heels, sprains, strains and cuts from hiking and sports, in grown toenails, athlete's feet, and a host of other foot ills Nurses To Graduate Two Medford young wom en will receive their bachelor of science degrees in nursing at the University of Oregon School of Nursing commence ment exercises Thursday, June 7 at 8 p.m., in the Uni versity of Oregon Medical school auditorium. They are Miss Ann B. Gar ner, daughter of Walter G. Garner, 2009 East Main street, and Miss Dorothy M.

Flemming, president, Univer sity of Oregon. 4 Cottage Cheese, Salmon. Make Summer Salad You won't have to "fish" for compliments this summer when you serve your family this cottage cheese and sal mon salad. It's the cool com plement to a sultry summer day. The creamy white of the cottage cheese layer of the salad contrasts with the rosy pink of the salmon layer. The cottage cheese layer is made first and allowed to be come firm in the refrigerator before the salmon layer is added on top. You don't have to have a fish mold to make this refreshing salad. A ring mold or a 9" square pan will do just as well. Garnish your unmolded salad with a ripe red tomato stuffed with cot tage cheese and twists of clove-studded lemon peel. If you use a fish mold, take several strips of pimiento to form a tail and add olive slices to make the eyes. Creative cooks use cottage cheese for dozens of different cool summer salads. Shimmer ing molded salads are extra nutritious when they're top ped with a mound of cottage cheese or prepared using cot tage cheese as a flavorful in gredient, as in this Cottage Cheese-Snlmon Mold. Cottage cheese can also do a turnabout and be added to French dressing and used for a lettuce or vegetable salad. It makes a flavorful ingredi ent in your homemade potato salad too! You can consume quantities of protein rich-calorie poor cottage cheese without a care about your weight. A half cup of the delicious dairy food has only 120 calories. Americans love cottage cheese . . . last year we enjoyed over five pounds per person. For the cheese layer use U tablespoon gelatin, 2 table spoons cold milk. ' cup hot milk, 3 cups cottage cheese, sieved, teaspoon onion, minced and ' 4 teaspoon salt. Soak gelatin in cold milk and dissolve in hot milk. Com bine with remaining ingredi ents. Chill until mixture be gins to thicken. Pour into mold. Refrigerate until firm. For salmon layer use 2 cups red salmon, flaked, 1 cup salad dressing, V cup celery, finely chopped, 1 tablespoon lemon Juice, ti tablespoon gelatin, 2 tablespoons cold water. Combine salmon, salad dressing, celery and lemon Juice. Soak gelatin in cold water for five minutes, then dissolve over hot water. Add to salmon mixture. Cool. Pour over cheese layer. To serve, unmold on large platter and garnish with watercress and tomato slices. MOVE RIGHT appJiance Can 10th Street A at Siikiyou that lurk in ambush under foot. Too many parents pack an excess of slacks, shirts, under clothes, etc., but stint on shoes. They're the one item in his or her camp ensemble that can do positive harm if they're not right. Check Shoe Size First, check the size of his present shoes. There should be room for growth at the front and sides of the shoe - espe cially if he will be gone seven or eight weeks. Children have a way of sprouting like weeds in summer - in a month or two, their feet may jump a full size. To be safe, take him to a shoe store and have an experienced fitter measure his feet. Second, think about the kind of shoes he'll wear. Even at camp, or rather especially at camp, the all-leather laced oxford is the child's basic shoe. Firm but pliable leather uppers give his feet the firm but elastic support they need when he's sprinting across fields or clambering up obstacle-strewn forest trails. Po rous leather soles breathe in the fresh air his feet need, keeping his feet dry, healthy and comfortable. Send along two pairs of leather oxfords. One for a rainy day - and one for the day after. Sneakers for Athletics There's not much chance of avoiding sneakers altogether, but give orders that they should be worn just for ath letics, for an hour or two at a time, not all day long. Canvas-rubber footwear is flimsy - offering neither protection against ankle sprains or foot fatigue. Children love Indian moc casins, and camp is their nat ural habitat. Here again the firm but flexible leather sole is important. It will give pro tection against nails, sharp stones and twigs and the other hazards in an active young ster's camp life. As light as a sneaker, the leather moccasin offers the added advantage of excellent support to the child's feet and ankles. Add a pair of ankle high chukka boots In smooth or brushed leather to his ward robe. On hiking trail or at a bull session, they offer full foot support without tiring weight, Illinois Valley Couple Returns Illinois Valley r Mr. and Mrs. John England have re turned from a 10-day trip'to San Diego, Calif.
