We feel that an explanation is due certain friends and groups for certain stories un written and this Is it we've got bursitis. And if that isn't enough to bring on a lot of sympathy, we give up. From time to time we've heard victims of this nasty disorder telling how they suffered and we always thought privately that they must be exaggerating a bit. It couidn't be that bad. But now that bursitis has settled in our left shoulder and arm, we're willing to admit that the results are pretty horrible. Not only is the pain excruciating, but it seems to tie the arm to the side. It refuses to do what a normal arm should do. We can't reach out or up and grasp objects we're practically a one-handed person. Pappy has had to take over cooking and cleaning duties at home and has helped with buttons and hooks and eyes on clothing but one chore he positively refused to attempt that is to help with the hair combing. The front hair Potpourri can manage with the right hand, but when it comes to doing the twist in back that is something else. Saturday morning we managed by hang ing our head down until the painful lett arm couia reacn our head, and Sunday morning we raised our left arm up as far at it would go, grasped the elbow with the right hand and forced the left arm up to where we could hang on to the twist of hair while the right was used for pinning. The resulting coiffure wasn't spectacular, but it was done after a fashion. We had to rest for several minutes after wards. There is one problem we haven't solved how does a one-handed woman get herself into a tight two-way stretch girdle? This ghastly bursitis kept us from our planned sched ule and Saturday night we were sitting at home v.nder the heat lamp instead of attending the installation of officers of Zueleima temple, daughters of the Nile, as we had plan ned to do. The Daughters stage these ceremonies in exotic and colorful settings, and we had looked forward to seeing the new queen, Mrs. Murray Gardiner, in her gown designed and made especially for the occasion. We'll have to set up a special appointment to see the gown. Last Monday, being in normal health, we were happy to drive to Mon Desir at noon for a Hawaiian party which Julie Tummers gave for about 65 friends from several southern Oregon towns and cities. Mrs. Tummers rcceitly spent a vacation in Hawaii, and brought back some new recipes and party ideas which she wanted to share. Julie served the meal from exclamations, both for the food and the decorations. The centerpicc was anthurium blossoms sent from Hawaii by the John Jardines; it was in their home that Mrs. Tummers was a guest when she visited the islands. They also sent dozens of little Vanda orchids in order that each guest might have one. Mrs. L. C. Gordon, Central Point, arranged the flowers. Mrs. Tummers and the two friends who assisted her, Mrs. John Mansfield and Mrs. H. A. Stanley, wore muumuus. These island garments, which originally were completely shapeless and without fit, arc gradually being transformed. The lavender and purple one Mrs. T. wore Monday was fitted somewhat and had deep inverted pleats at the bot tom of the skirt on the sides, and these were of contrasting plain lavender material. The new muumuus are adver tised in tiie islands as having the "broad" look. When Mrs. Alfred S. V. Carpenter arrived at the luncheon she brought her hostess a blossoms. The Carpenters had before after an island vacation. At luncheon time, Julie urged her guests lo "try every thing" and we did. Most of the dishes were adaptations of island recipes Mrs. Tummers say's "it's just about impos sible for me to follow a recipe exactly." Her "sweet potato koolau" was flavored with pineapple, orange juice, butter and chopped walnuts Julie a bit flat so she poured in a One of the main dishes crab and rock cod in a sauce mushroom soup, leeks, parsley, A Quantity of white wmc added a fillip. A bowl ot melon balls and other fruit was encircled with little orchids. Con diments included mango chutney and guava preserves which the hostess made in Hawaii and Among the hors d'oeuvre puppus the hostess bought the plain canned abalonc and then spiced it. Guests were intrigued with "pineapples" made from liverwurst plastered around a jar. Mrs. T. soft ened the liverwurst with mayonnaise, added a bit more seasoning and then covered the outside of the jar; she scored it with a knife tip to resemble the fresh pineapple surface, and decorated the whole with slices of green olive stuffed with pimicnlo. The like the pineapple tops. Gelatine dishes of new flavors were also on the menu. Julie used a gelatin base made with peach juice and brandy, and the other with a com bination of cherry and pineapple. This she didn't think was completely successful, since it failed to harden to the proper consistency. Julie's version of curried nee with diced ham, and plain rice for those who don't like curry, were both on the menu. The table decorations included coconut shell? filled with macadamia nuts brought from the islands. Table bouquets were of pink camellias from Mrs. Stanley's garden and Mrs. Stanley, who has lived abroad in past years, loaned carved articles and hangings for wall decorations. During the afternoon we learned something new the cost and quantity of hair spray young girls use are causing minor crises in some amines, she and her husband had had a family pow wow and laid down the law to their two daughters each may have not more than one large can of hair spray per month. Both girls had been using about a large can a week and since these may run as htgii as a dollar or two. the parents finally decided this was one expense they must cut from the budget. Let's sec if each can cost $1.80 and each girl used two, that's S3 a week, or roughly SI 50 a year. This sum, we might point out, is more than year in some countries of Save Time . . . Save Gas . . .

Tuesday Civic Music Membership Campaign Under Way Medford is Utopia in short pants, Dr. Arthur Kreisman, Southern Oregon college pro fessor, told a group of work ers of the Jackson County Civic Music association at a luncheon Saturday at the Rogue Valley Country club. Each one of us wants to make the valley as good as we can, the speaker contin ued, and called the present Civic Music membership drive a missionary effort. He explained that each person has a selfish reason for sell ing memberships to their neighbors so they can enjoy the best in musical entertain ment. But, he added, ultimately you do them a favor, as the concerts enrich the life of the community, and the com munity becomes known for its music. Civic Music association is one place where you get a di rect return on your money, he added. He concluded by challenging the workers to make "Medford a Utopia let's start lengthening the trousers." The noon luncheon was the kick off event for the week long membership drive of the association.
