Two recent elections have furnished excitement for Rogue Manor members, the school consolidation voting on February 11, when, I am happy to report, our members demonstrated real valley cit izenship and turned out in crowds to vote - and the Manor election when four of our members, Mrs. Jessie Mincar, Mrs. C. W. Wood cock, Mrs. Lawrence McDan iel and Dr. George Breece, were elected to the Manor council. And, this reminds me that I have never written about the Manor Members' council which was organized several months after the Manor open ed and was among the first of such organizations in re tirement residences. Nine Members There are nine members on this council, elected by the full membership for stagger ed periods, so there are al ways some experienced peo ple serving. The present chairman is Col. Ralph Pow ell. Each council member is responsible for leadership in one specific department of Manor activities, such as ser vices, gardens, religion, hob bies, health center, culture, recreation and programs. Part of the important work done by the council is collect ing and disbursing the recre ation and improvement fund. In the very beginning, they had only the generous contri butions of individual mem bers, but almost Immediately our shops on the ground floor moved in and began making monthly contribu tions to this fund. Some sur plus sales and garden group auctions added money to the fund from time to time. The council has the task of appor tioning and alloting this fund on the basis of which depart ment needs what first. Purchase Items They have purchased items from the health center; weav ing looms, full-length mirror for sewing, woodworking ma chines, an enameling kiln and articles for mosaic and cer amic work for our hobby de votees; a great deal of equip ment for recreation rooms and outdoor recreation activi ties and many necessary sup plies for our gardens. They allocate money to our tables and interior decorating com mittee, our religious program committee, our library and to tne cultural and program committee. ' They have recently pur chased a portable microphone; they rent our movies for us and have bought a large screen for cinemascopes. Heretofore, our ingenious pro jectors (members all) discov ered an unbroken space on one wall of our auditorium and showed these large pic tures on that. It worked, but this new screen is surely an improvement. Council Box In a council box in the lob by, members deposit any sug g e s t ions, recommendations, requests and - yes - com plaints. In a membership of more than 325, complaints are sure to pop up. Seemingly, these epistles range from the sublime through the reason able, useful, amusing to the ridiculous. In this phase of the work, the council is of inestimable assistance to the administrator. They function as liaison, as a filter. Knowing the policy and desires of the administra tion, they can often act on minor matters, with the coun cil member responsible for that department putting the idea into operation, referring only the pertinent or more important problems to the Administrator for decisions. The council serves the mem bers in many respects, such as recommending a change or an alteration in plans, rules or services. A number of former residents have served on the Members' council. Miss Florence Morris and Mr. Neal McGrady have re ported what seems to be the first "brunch" party given in the Manor. They invited friends to the club room for a 10:30 a.m. feast, evidently no so much "brunch" as a breakfast PLUS lunch, both from A-to-Z and both irre-sistable. Seeds Topic for I Shady Cove Club I Shady Cove Growing seeds in and out-of-doors, their care and suitability to the area were the topics of a talk given by Mrs. Carolyn Kelsey during the February meeting of the Shady Cove Garden club. The meeting was held in the home of Mrs. Chester Galloway. Flower chairman, Mrs. Floyd Kelley, spoke on wild flowers, their beauty and adaptibility to home grounds with landscaping. The conservation chairman, Mrs. M. Molnar is supervising a poster and essay contest for Shady Cove elementary school children in connection with a state contest. Mrs. Del bert Spain, president, con ducted the meeting. The cohostesses were Mrs. Molnar and Mrs. Calloway. A discussion was held con cerning a flower show for which no definite date has been set. The March meeting will be in the home of Mrs. William Cote on Meadow lane. The topic will pertain to birds. Cohostesses are to be Mrs. Charles McCann and Mrs. Calloway. Returns Hombrook Mrs. lone Graham returned . recently from a months' visit with children and grandchildren in Ely and Las Vegas, Nev.

A recent study of this national newspaper audience shows that it in cludes 80 percent of all men and women over 21 ... and 72 per cent of all teen agers, age 15 and over. This huge and consistent readership can be depended upon by advertisers because the daily newspaper is a habit with most people . . . an established part of their everyday lives. For the national advertiser, this amounts to almost the total market for any product. For the local advertiser, this massive readership symbolizes the local reach of his own local newspaper - into almost 9 out of 10 homes every day. No matter what the product or service an advertiser wants to sell, more people can read about it in the pages of the daily newspaper.
