A group of senior citizens
of the Medford area wishing
to be of service to the com.
munity and at the same time
gather together for fun and
fellowship have organized a
new group within the Jackson
County chapter, American

group, and Is expected to at
tract much interest and addi
tional membership. Members
will serve both as an emer

with the United Medford Cru

rose at 5 a.m. and telephoned
more than 200 persons, . re
minding them of the break

Members are also working
with the blind of the area.
They assist at the rehabilita

cleaning and preparing the
building for social functions,
furnishing transportation,
making curtains, reading
aloud to the. blind, and. pro
viding refreshments when
these are needed.
A clipping service has been
established and Mrs. Maude
King is now taking care of
this needed project for the
chapter.
During visits of the blood
bank and for first aid classes,
the members serve as baby

Summing up the new corps
a spokesman said "These are

there will be others, for In
our group there arc those
skilled in many ways, with
years of experience, with

Creativity
mink, like in the popular
song, if I had one. But you
can have back that sable-collated
"walking suit" which I
thought was a real bargain be
cause it had gone through sev
eral markdowns in the dress
shop. Now I know that some
other women shoppers were
smarter than I.
The suit Is loo heavy for
our occasional mild winter
days and not heavy enough
for the cold ones. And just
try tucking a sable-collared
suit beneath a coal.
Take back your sleeveless
dresses for winter. I bought
one in a handsome double
knit wool Jersey It's been
hanging more than office-going
ever since the boss took
one look at bared arms on one
of the more frigid days and
commented, "My lord, it
makes nic cold just to look
at you!"
Is that the kind of reaction
a dress should draw from a
male?
Take back your muffled
neckline treatment on suits. I
bought a beauty in red wool
when the muffler fad first
hit. and swathed my neck
with its matching scarf - (or
about half an hour. Then off
came Jacket, out came scis
sors, off came the scarf - and
I could breathe again. The
muffler's been hanging since
in the closet and I figure the
only good I'll ever got out o(
I It Is as patch if the seat of
1 the skirt gives way, or as
I waistband inset in case hem
I lines ever come tumbling,
j Take back those intrrlin
ings of poor quality, although
I my dressmaker will regret
' this move. She's been making
. a fortune off me, replacing
J linings on dresses and skirls
I that came to pieces after four
or five cleanings.

A certain letter is being quoted rather often this spring.
It was written by L. D. Harris, chief of police of Manassas
Park, Va to teen-agers of his community, and distributed
at a parent-teacher association meeting.
Chief Harris wrote: Always we hear the plaintive cry of
the teen-agers "What can we do? Where can we go?"
The answer is go home.
Hang the storm windows, paint the woodwork. Rake
the leaves. Mow the lawn. Shovel the walk. Wash the car.
Learn to cook. Scrub some floors. Repair the sink. Build a
boat. Gel a job.
Help the minister, priest or rabbi, (he Red Cross, the
Salvation Army. Visit the sick. Assist the poor. Sludy your
lessons. And then when you are through and not tired,
read a book.
Your parents do not owe you entertainment. Your vil
lage docs not owe you recreation facilities. The world does
not owe you a living. You owe the world something. You
owe it your time and energy and your talents 50 that no
one will be at war or in poverty, or sick, or lonely again.
In plain simple words: Grow up: quit being a crybaby;
gel out of your dream world . . . start acting like a man or
a lady.
Chief Harris left out one thing we would have added.
Plant a garden.
Potpourri grew up in a little town on the coast of Wash
ington stale where the home, the school and the church
were the backbone of the community. We went to school
during the week, to Sunday school and church on Sunday.
There was a movie once a week, there were parties, picnics,
school basketball games and track meets in season, club
meetings and music. We had a piano, which took years to
pay for, and the family gathered around it to sing.
At home there was cooking, cleaning, washing, ironing
without benefit of electricity or gas. We girls helped with all
these chores and others. We learned to sew and cook, to
tend the chickens and in the growing season, we gardened.
The family grew all manner of vegetables for they were
not often (or salt in the village grocery store, and we had
a (lower garden. We grew several different kinds of berries
and fruits and t icsc were harvested and canned or made
into preserves, Jillics and Jams.
How wonderfully good the apple butter and strawberry
Jmu tasted on niotlw's freshly baked bread. The three girls
were quite able to eat a whole loaf of the still-warm bread
as soon as we arrived home from school, and without spoiling
our appetite for supper, it might be added.
And why do we recall this now? Because we did not
have to ask "What can we do? Where can we go?" Our
town had no recreation center, no YMCA, no bowling alley
or skating rink. There were no tennis courts, or golf courses
and only a very (ew automobiles. There were no radios or
television sets one wonderful summer we had the loan of
a phonograph and a few raspy records which we thought
were the most wonderful things in the world
But we never lacked for something to do. We were quite
poor, as were most of our friends and neighbors, but it
never occurred to us that we were underprivileged in any
way. And we never heard the words "juvenile delinquent.''

Gelatin
Salad Has
Wine Flavor
A variety of vegetables
suspended in wine-flavored
gelatin will look and taste
like a salad masterpiece. And
yet, Buffet Vegetable Salad
Molds are so simple you'll be
amazed!
Prepare 1 e m 0 n-Ilavered
gelatin as usual, substituting
a delicate white dinner wme,
such as California sautcrne or
chablis, and piquant wine
vinegar for part of the water
usually used. While the gela
tin is chilling, prepare the
vegetables. Here lies the sec
ret of this salad's success, in
stead of spending hours of
cleaning, scraping, cutting and
chopping, just use a package
of frozen mixed vegetables
from the freezer compart-
mcnt. Cook, drain and they
arc ready to add the slightly
thickened gelatin.
To serve, top with mayon
naise or sour cream that has
been flavored with a dash of
horseradish and garnish with
slices of tomato or pickled
beet.

ed gelatin; one cup hot water;
