FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 21. 1962 MEBFOUD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Social Events Manor Member Relates Traveling by Eurail Pass (Editor! Note: The excerpts 01 letters irom Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Melville, members of Rogue Valley Manor, Med- ford, which follow have been furnished the Medford Mail Tribune by Arnold Eugene Jenny, also a Manor member, and conductor of the Poets' Corner published in the Sun day Issues of this paper. The Melvilles are nearing the end of a seven-month round-the-world tour from San Fran cisco via Japan, and now are in Frutigcn, Canton Bern, Switzerland, birthplace of Mr. Jenny. The letters from Fru tigen from which these ex cerpts were taken were sent to Mr. Melville's sister, Mrs. Donald S. Stevens, who with her husband, lives at the Manor.) July 8, As I write I am sitting on the terrace of the Sieber-Mueller's Hotel Nation al, surrounded by a panorama of spectacular beauty . . . The landscape is easily equalled by the hospitality of Paul and Frau Sicber, who really make you feel at home and like per sonal guests rather than pay ing one . . . Frau Sicber moth ers everybody. We take our problems to her and they al ways are solved with a feel ing of mutual satisfaction, where to go and how, etc. There is a great feeling of rcslfulness and you breathe In Swiss integrity with every breath. Without doubt this is a most delightful place. I don't care if I see any more of Europe. I would be content to stay here. The meals are "homey" - very good and most plentiful. The backdrop of mountains is as lovely as ever and the chang ing light and shadow and cloud pattern a constant de light. August 3, Trains and hotels are crowded. Except for the fact that we want to get the most value from our Eurail Pass which expires August 28, we would sit out the month in Frutigcn which also is crowded but our "home away from home." We are comfortable but Frau Siebcr is pulling her hair out trying to accommodate people. One Sunday while we were in Austria, she had 29 people "parked" in Frutigen homes. 1 really can't begin to tell you what Frutigen has meant to us. It is more than a hotel - it is an experience! Litllt Things The little things are never neglected, fresh flowers in our room every day; an American flag on our table and for other visitors, their own country's flag; a suggestion here and there for something special going on such as when the cows come home from the alpine meadows, with their bells, down the main street; the alpine horns; a special show for guests put on by Hcrr Sicber in small, intimate groups (colored slides) as one would entertain at home. A thousand little touches and at the same time the busi ness of the motel keeps func tioning smoothly (or so it seems to the guests); meals are always delightful and homey; there is no pretentiousness but nothing for your comtort or enjoyment is lacking. It is one place, and believe me, this is the highest praise of all. Mary (Mrs. Melville) is perfectly satisfied outside of Forestvillc (their California farm home). We really feel this is home and all this scenery too! Un August first we took a motor trip with some friends, 90 -year -old Frau Mueller (Frau Siebcr's mother) and Frau Trachsel (Frau Sieber's sister) to the little town of Gruyeres, thence to Fribourg, Avenchcs, and Murten in western Switzerland. We got back to Frutigcn in time for an early supper, be cause this day, August first, is Switzerland's Independence day, celebrated much like our own July 4, with parades, speeches and fireworks. We all stood in front of the hotel as the parade went by. First came a platoon of soldiers, fol lowed by a brass band, a team of some 20 gymnasts and chil dren with their mothers car rying paper lanterns hearing the Swiss insignia. We fol lowed them to the school grounds and watched the gymnasts perform, heard the band play again and a group of men in local costume sing their national songs. In Coiluma The people also turned nut in costume, and the young folk shot off firecrackers, col ored flares, "flower-pots," and so on, and the program closed with singing of the national anthem. This was followed by a public display of fireworks. The Swiss also celebrate by lighting bonfires on the moun tains and as soon as darkness fell, we could see these fires dotting the hills and peaks around us. Sky-rockets from other towns also celebrating added to our display. It was an evening to remember. Yreka Gardeners Plan Projects Yreka-Both the afternoon and evening groups of the Yreka Garden clubs held re cent meetings.

(UPI photo) Cosmetics Firm Boss Says Makeup Being Overdone By CAY PAULEY UPI Womtn'i Editor New York - lUCIl - A woman boss of a cosmetics firm syas American women are over doing their Tiiiifl makeup. I "Most of them t II nro iisintf too much, with harsh results," said E s t e e Lauder "There isn't enough subtle ty. 1 see no reason why a natural look in makeup cannot be consider ed beautiful," said Mrs. Laud er. "Fix up your face accord ing to YOUR skin, not ac cording to what your neigh bor is doing. The skin should have a creamy, luminous qual ity. Naturally, the shades in makeup should be determined by the individual's coloring. But I have often found that one shade of rouge (deep rose) and one shade of eye shadow (turquoise) will do wonders for the average woman." Mrs. Lauder, who offers a Ill-point program of skin care, boasts a creamy-looking, un lincd complexion that is her own best testimonial. Yet the blonde, brown-eyed business woman has two grown sons and two grandchildren. Born at Flushing. N. Y., Mrs. Lauder originally plan ned to become a dermatolo gist, following a pattern set by some of her uncles who were dermatologists in Vien na. But love intervened when she met Joseph Lauder, a business analyst. And it wasn't until her two children were of school age that she resumed her interest In skin care. She started selling one of her family's all-in-one face cream formulas in the rear of a small, hairdressing shop in Manhattan. "They say Ihr way to spread the word is by lele- 1 Gay Pauley ft phone, telegraph and tell woman," she said. "It was the last that worked for me. One customer told another." Today, Mrs. Lauder's beau ty products are sold in stores nationwide, in Canada and Europe. Her husband is boss of the production of the line. Son Leonard, 26, is a vice president, and chances are that son Roland, 18, will join the family organization when he finishes school. This week, for her "remark able achievements in the cre ation of dramatic, youth-restoring cosmetics," Mrs. Laud er was presented the Neiman Marcus award at the firm's 25th annual fashion exposi tion in Dallas. Tan Rules In an Interview, Mrs. Laud er suggested these 10 skin care rules which she says cer tainly have succeeded for her. -No soap and water unless you have a problem skin. "I haven't washed my face since I was 12," she said. She rec ommends a pure, light-textured cleansing oil that lubri cates as it removes soil and makeup. -Always use a little pro tective cream on the face when in the tub or shower. "Steam creates a taut, drying effect," she said. -Stay out of the sun, or at least if you must sun, keep the dosage small. "Otherwise you will come up leather," she said. -Any woman over 30 should use a facial mask to tone the skin and bring up the circulation. "I use one every day when I get home from the office," she said. "I call it mv five-minute cock tail." Ltarn Art -Learn the art of applying makeup. Get advice from one of the hundreds of trained personnel which various man ufacturers posted behind cos metics counters. Mrs. Laud er alone has "several hun dred" who have been schooled in cosmetics use. -Don't wear the same day time makeup on into evening because artificial light creates a different effect. By coinci dence, Mrs. Lauder has just come out with a line of eve ning cosmetics which have irridescence. -Never smooth rouge on the cheeks only. Put a faint touch on forehead, chin, and ear lobes to bring the whole face in harmony. Select one fragrance and make it your signature. -Always use fresh cotton pads to apply powder. Don't just powder your nose when touching up makeup. Take lime to go into a powder room nd go over the entire face. -And remember that a good rule is, "whatever goes on the face should go on the neck too. " This holds for powder, foundation, cleansing lotion and the creams - . . - Calendar Cupnriar notice and nwi (or iht irx'ieiv lection of Th Mail Tribune mint br uhnuiil in writint nrt dradluie for the Sun day edition li 1 p m Friday Dead line lor the HeeMy calendar ti a m of the day o( publication and for weea rtav new t 3 p m tht day before publication.
