Shown here (left to right) Calendars Support Clothing Pool In the winter of 1957, the Medford Junior Women's club was organized as a civic and philanthropic organiza tion and was accepted as a member of the Oregon Fed eration of Women's clubs. The 14 charter members began searching for a project though which they could fulfill the purpose of the club and also satisfy a need in the com munity. Their problem was 1 1 Unnn..A .Un., UnJ H i;it;icaacu uclouk: uicj iiau tiu funds available to spend on such a project. Through one of the mem bers, the club became aware of the need for a centrally lo cated clothing depot for the use of school nurses and prin ciples in dispensing ciotrung 4 naa4.r .h!U.an in tt.a schools. A room provided in Lincoln school building and clothing was collected through the PTAs. Club members as sumed the responsibility of cleaning, mending and sorting the clothing by type and size. Over 200 hours each year have been devoted to this work, and at present, each of the club's members has a goal f 11 .. L. I. ui a nuuis pel ycjji uu wuir. at the clothing pool. As soon as the clothing pool was in operation, club mem bers looked for a means of "raising funds to defray main tenance expenses and to pur chase articles of clothing 'When needs could not be fill ' ed at the clothing pool. In the fall of 1958 the Jun ior Women's club published its first Social and Appoint ment Calendar as a combined fund-rnising and civic project. The calendar is designed to include dates of school and city functions as well as any privately sponsored events which are of interest to the . general public in the Medford area. The calendar covers a pe riod from October of one year through September of the next. Care is taken to leave adequate space on each date for the recording of personal ' appointments. The back cov ' er contains a list of organiza tions and also includes meet- ing times and telephone num bers of a club officer. Adv tising is sold to local i chants to defray print,. costs. Club members average over 200 man hours of work on this calendar each September. Fred H. Hover & Co. MANAGEMENT ' CONSULTANTS '"- -r tj' - ';---' 5a Homo;..

They compile all the informa tion and prepare it for the printers. After proofs are made, they glue the printed material on blank calendar pages. These pages are then photographed and completed by the printing firm. Members then assemble all pages, punch the holes for binding and bind the calendars. The production work done by club members saves an estimated $100 to $150 in printing costs, and the com bined cooperation of adver tisers, the printer, and the club members makes it pos sible for all sales revenue to go to the club's philanthropic fund.

A sleeve less tunic of coarse brown mo hair was worn over a basic black dress with dramatic effect. Rich colors are being used for sweaters and pants, and the "American Beauty Ital ian Version" appearance of Mrs. Robert Kline was in this shade. The sweater was a medium bulky knit and the pants were modified hip-hug- gers. Afternoon and evening clothes had a note of ele gance achieved by fabric and trimming of fur or feathers. Mrs. Carl Brophy modeled a Don Loper coat distinguished by great fullness in the back and a removal fur boa. Her tall hat added to the smart look of the ensemble. Mrs. Fred A. Lewis, retir ing president of the league, modeled one of the costume suits which are the backbone of many Medford wardrobes. A pale bone colored wool, the dress was made with cap sleeves and the jacket was en hanced with a mink collar. Sometimes . fake fur takes over for the real thing, and Mrs. John T. Weisel modeled Glow After Dark in Bronze nd Oold," a costume with a jacket of fake fur trimmed with honest-to-goodncss mink. Something new has been added to sweaters bright printed designs and Mrs. Don ald Jackson wore one adorn ed with a mass of pink roses. The fad for feathers was shown in "Night Moods White on While" an after dark high style frock worn by Mrs. Norman T. Capsey. The simple white dress had a wide band of white fluffy feather around the swinging hemline.

K. Kuck Montague, president of Siski you County CowBelles. The Carriage House and The Westerners staged the CowBelle show and it ranged from practical western riding pants, boots and wide brimmed hats, tasteful dress es and suits to the newer ruffled shirts and trousers which also boasted tiny ruf fles, fancy stitching and down-the-side design. For the past year or so fashion writ ers have been saying that trousers for the feminine side of the family are going to be longer and wider, and so they are. Some of those shown even had belled legs, with ruffles inset at the bot tom. ' . . However, the tightly-fitted stretch fabrics were much in the picture at Mon Desir last week. Mrs. John Konweiser of Yankee Creek modeled the new stretch denim, and also appeared in a pants and jack et suit of the ever -popular corduroy. Mrs. Arthur A. Ekerron modeled western riding clothes, a sissy dress with lots '"Ki.l.st- ijjaj .

Mrs. Wallace Ragsdale mod- eled both riding clothes and classic dresses and suits and her tiny granddaughter, Tam my Fisher, daughter of the I Robert Fishers, was a sensa tion when she appeared in a black and white full-skirted outfit with a small bow on top her head. The next time out, We never recommend seli-pousnin . . says Henry M. Tobey, Research Director of the world's largest hardwood floor maker "Self-polishing waxes are wonderful for linoleum, tile and vinyl but not wood floors. The reason? Most of them are made primarily of synthetic plastics which are impossible to remove from wood floors without damaging the finish or the wood. The remit coat after coat of old lelf polishing wax pile up and your wood floor darken! and dincolort. To take care of your wood floor the right way, we recommend Bruce Clean ing Wax or Bruce Floor Cleaner. Both contain a removable liquid paste wax and a waterless wood floor cleaner. They clean; remove the old wax; and leave a rich, new coat of gleaming paste wax protection all at the same time! For lighter waxing and cleaning badly soiled floors, use Bruce Floor Cleaner. Where a heavy wax coat is desired, Bruce Cleaning Wax is best. It's the easiest and right way to keep wood floors clean and bright." n tauCc IfttMHfiM, Mem foil i f imiceV i Ev at cleaning I tj I fiocr I .0 -'$ I TUESDAY.
