I Tips Are Given For House Plants Washington - (UP1I - Spring's the time to get as many house plants as possible outdoors. The Society of American Florists suggested that plant owners take these prelimi nary steps: Discard plants which have outlived their usefulness, In cluding those too big for their indoor niche and too big to be pruned. Prune, to promote symmet ry or to reduce size, several weeks ahead of the time when It is safe to set plants out doors. Re-pot in larger pots those' . plants needing more room in which to grow. If the pots are to be put Into the earth, first combat any insect pests which might be on the plants. Put the pots on their sides and squirt water or an insecticide on the undersides of the leaves. For convenience in caring for them, it is better to group house plants in an outdoor bed location providing a var iety of conditions: full sun for desert plants (cacti and succulents) am .ryllis and geraniums; partial shade for azaleas, Christmas cactus and orchid cactus; and shade for foliage plants in general. The society said a spot near a high-headed tree or shrub whose follaRe Is not loo dense, or in the vicinity of a build ing, usually provides these various conditions. Placing the pots in the ground - or in a special bed of peal-moss or sand - will lessen the need for plant watering. Pot rims should be slightly above the soil levil and the base of each pot should be surrounded with cinders or gravel to provide free drain age. i P.S.-The pots should be given an occasional half-turn so the plants will not grow loo much toward the sun.

Luncheon Given By PTA Board For School Staff Members of the Hoover P a r e n t-Teachcr association executive board entertained the faculty and sta'f of the school at a luncheon held Friday, June f, on the ter rt.ee of the Rogue Valley Country club. A highlight of the occasion was the report given by Miss Anna Laura Honts, Hoover teacher of the first grade, who had been a delegate to the meeting of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers held in Portland May 20-23. She stated that the theme of the convention had been "New Adventures in PTA Leadership and Re sponsibility," with "Action" as the keynote. The main emphasis of the meeting was on the educa tion of the individual pupil as such, she said. Dean Quil len of Stanford university was quoted as saying that since 1940 college enroll ment has risen by 250 per cent, and that the leal chal lenge is to keep the quality of education up with the quantity. Harry Smallen- berg, mental health chair man for the NCPT had said, "The more educational tech niques change, the more children remain the same. Their basic needs are love, understanding, faith, guid ance and control." Miss Honts said the mean ing of the parent teacher as sociation program was sum med up by W. R. Fulton, na tional education chairman, when he dr scribed it as "a better understanding and knowledge of the goals and purposes of education and a better understanding of what is taking place in this field." The luncheon was arrang ed by Mrs. T. P. Barss, new president of the Hoover asso ciation, assisted by Mrs. Ray Casterline and Mrs. Gene Chamberlain. Mrs. Barss complimented the teachers and staff on their year's work, and Roy Gilbertson, principal of the school, re sponded with an expression of appreciation for the teach ers, staff and parents.
