It certainly was not through them that I learned about the little ship which travels twice a week from Sicily to Naples through the Iolian isles. It was from Scottie and Chloe Fairweather of Medford that I heard about it. They have taken the trip and had been enthusiastic about it. . . It is a lovely excursion through the six volcanic is lands. On quiet days the ship glides effortlessly along in and around the mounds, stopping to leave produce, ar tichokes, oranges, lemons, fen nel and eggs, to drop passen gers, and pick up others. If the harbor is big enough, as at Lipari, it docks; if not, little boats row out to it and the cargo is lowered on to them. It is interesting to see how much a row boat can hold without sinking. Few Passengers I felt as though I were on a private cruise; there were few passengers, and only one other American, a young man who is a geologist and study ing rock formations. The day, although cold, was bright and clear, the sky and sea were the blue you think of, but do not always sec, in the Medi terranean area and symphonic music accompanied the engine motors. However there was, as It ! seems to me there always is I in Europe, an element of sur prise, the unexpected. My sur prise this time was in the Island of Stromboli, the well i advertised Bergman and Ros- selini rendezvous. I had rath I er hoped to stop a day or j two there, but the travel , agent had discouraged me by saying, "It is quiet there this time of year." And that was. if I ever heard one, a soft spoken understatement. 1 In Close Sight We came in close sinht of the Island In the afternoon and for two hours the ship '. sailed along beside the tor , rifyingly stnrk, grand work of I nature. In the true sense of : the word, the island is awful, great caverns, mammoth dis placed rocks, long stretches down mountain slides, sinister and shiny; as smooth as ski runs. Weird colored vegeta tion, smoke al the top, smoke and red. We slid along, in almost uncanny quiet; along and around. I kept waiting for the scene to change. I wanted to see something conducive to, and suggestive of, seciiiction scenery. Finally we rounded a bend (if such great immen sity can be termed as homely a word as bend); the ship slowed down, engines stopped, anchor dropped and on a flat jut, there was a village. A poor, chimneyless, winduwlcss huddle of stone houses; no vegetation, no trees, no green. A smooth beach was all. Sun Dropped Quickly the westerning sun dropped into the sea and the village disappeared into the dusk. A row boat paddled up along side to take the cargo, and the one American, who must have had the same qualms that I did. He climbed down the rope ladder into the vegetables and boxes, and in a minute or two they were off. The oarsmen, two of them, had bandanas around their heads, open shirts, and bare feet. Right out of "Mutiny on the Bounty" they were. I watched, wrapped warm ly in sweaters and furs, as they bounded and bobbed over the waves into the dark ness. There was not one light in the God-forsaken village. After about twenty minutes, when they must have reached shore, a tiny beam broke through the night. It flicked its way up the hillside, and as we sailed off, I saw a yellow square of light. The luxury hotel, probably. This is simply one man's opinion of Stromboli. Strom boli must have lots of some thing, and I realize this is not rendezvous time of year. I have heard that the Ger mans have discovered it; that it is quiet, and that the swim ming is good in summer. All of the lovely Islands will catch it someday certainly, and neon lights will pierce the night; there will be bill boards, and service stations, and telephone poles. As yet they are Innocent of culture and progress. Son Visits Prospect - Clarence Neville has left for Hood River after visiting here with his parents. He is a teacher in the Hood River school system. Before arriving here he had spent some time in Seattle where he did some skin diving and scuba swimming. Dates, Apples Combined for Spring Salad It's time to start thinking about spring salads. One that will surely hit the spot is Frozen Date- Apple Salad Bits of dates, dried apple, mayonnaise, whipped cream and seasonings are combined and frozen in a refrigerator tray. Slice this salad onto salad greens for a deliciously different treat. The recipe serves eight so maybe you will want to make it when you have company. Luscious dates add a subtly exotic flavor to many salads, desserts and entrees, and they are natural sweets for energy building out-of-hand nibbling. rrosen Date Apple Salad One and one-half cup dates; one-half cup mayonnaise; four teaspoons prepared mustard; three tablespoons lemon juice; dash salt; one tablespoon su gar; one cup whipping cream; two cups diced apples; salad greens. Cut dates into small pieces. Combine mayonnaise, mus tard, lemon Juice, salt and su gar and stir to blend. Whip cream and fold into mayon naise mixture with dates and apple. Pour into refrigerator tray, place In freezing unit and freeze. Slice and serve on salad greens. Makes eight servings. Derward Graham. A covered luncheon will be served at noon.

Excelsior Springs, Mo. Conservation, Hawaiian Films Shown for Club Norman Eveleth. forester with the Ashland district of the Rogue River National Forest, and Gordon Walker, fire control officer, showed slides on conservation to Travel Study Club of the Ore gon Federation of Women's Clubs, last Tuesday, in the Fireplace room at the Girls Community club. . Mr. Eveleth said the film was made to make people more aware of conservation. There are many problems of conservation here in the Rogue valley, he added. The film was made by the U. S. government and stressed the five most important ele ments in the forest; namely, woods, water, forage, recrea ation, and wildlife. He de scribed a tree as man's best friend; the forest, a sanctuary where man may brush away his cares. He told of the many streams and rivers of water that many years ago were usable; but not today, as pollution has de stroyed much use of the wa ter. Slides of Hawaii Mrs. Julie Tummers gave a travelogue and showed slides of her trip to Hawaii. Pictures were shown begin ning with her landing at the airport until she left for home. The Kong's Florad Leigh garden has one of each plant which grows on the islands. ' Many pictures were of vol- j cano eruptions. The crater on I the summit of Haleakala is the largest extinct crater in the world. It contains cinder j cones rising as high as 900 feet. Mauna Loa and Kilauea are active volcanoes, she states. Much interest was shown in the Banyan tree, a large Indian tree of the mulberry family remarkable for its nu merous aerial roots, which, growing down from the branches, take root in the soil and form prop-roots. In this manner the tree spreads over a large area. Compared States In- comparison of the vol cano craters, she showed slides of Crater Lake, the scenery resembling that of Hawaii. Also slides of Klam ath river and scenes at Trail, and Shady Cove, had a resem blance to Hawaii. Mrs. Carl W. Peterson, president, conducted short business session. Elected on the nominating committee were Mrs. Erwin C. Hoffman, Gold Hill; Mrs. Jason C. Ottinger, and Mrs. Elizabeth Settle.

Guests were Mrs. Blanche Merriman, Gold Hill; and Mrs. Lee Mansfield, Sioux City, Iowa. ' The next meeting will be Tuesday, April 30,- at the Girls Community Club. Smaller Rooms Cause Problem - Smaller -Use diminutive New York - (UTO room sizes are making it in creasingly difficult to get proper proportion in Interior decorating schemes, according to a New York interior de signer. Designer Jay Dorf makes these suggestions to cope with decreased space: -Bring .the eye down and keep it there. This means low scale - low-backed chairs, low tables, low everything. -Create an illusion o f height by using vertical lines, placing pictures lower on the wall and hanging light fix tures low. les: low ana p" -- rangements, short candelabra and candles and small-scaled lamps. -Sculptured works and oth er art objects should be deli cate and unobtrusive. -Use area rugs to focus the eye on a small area, while still leaving a good deal of floor space showing. TKeep walls and ceilings light, and alternate light and dark shades throughout the room. Use the darker shades on larger units. LET BEAUTY CULTURE BE YOUR CAREER!
