SAVINGS OF 33V3 - 40 OFF REGULAR PRICES Women's News MANOR-ISMS . . . . By ETHELYN EVANS Motoring along! Since our last chat we have covered a terrific amount of territory. It is amazing how delightful ly restful a motor trip can be when taken in slow stages Of course, we started with the advantage of loving the out- of-doors in its natural state, if possible, and we enjoy mo toring. We have found the highways good, the motels comfortable and the food ex cellent. And, lo, the ubiquit ous swimming pool! No matter what hour tourists arrive at any place, they all plunge in. Grandma joins the two-year-olds. We liked the long drives through the big ranch coun try - the wide open spaces' that are becoming so scarce and hard to find, and then the plunge into lake and timber ed regions. All of it a world of uncluttered, uncrowded recreation spots. Surely it would be worth time and gas to reach such places for long or short vacations, where one would have no fear of being trampled by Jack London's "Herd Cattle." Just homo sapiens to you who are too young to have been a London fan. We circled Lake Pend Or eille (pon-duh-Ray) and lolled on the banks of sparkling little Deep Creek (Idaho) and reached Flathead lake (Mon tana, our first objective. "How dear to our hearts, etc." Vaca tions on this lake as a child and again in early teens have never been forgotten. Flat head is the largest, natural fresh water lake west of the Mississippi, 'tis said. It has a shoreline of timbered moun tains, state parks and many nice homes which are not crowded practically on top of one another, as they are around so many lakes. In fact, a one word description of Montana could be "spacious" or "big"; and we find so many Montana people seem to re flect the big, friendly spirit of their land. Official Tells Of Activities Applcgate Valley -Past Home Economics club chair men were honored recently at a meeting of the Upper Apple- gate group at the Grange. Mrs. Margaret Crouch. Camas Valley, district home economics chairman, discus sed activities of the clubs, noting that the women i n these clubs in Jackson county had earned more than $7,000 for the Granges.

Electrical Therapy Protects Teeth Reports Dentist Chicago - OTIi - The natural defense of a tooth against de cay may one day be increased by electrical therapy, the American Dental Association reports. I Dr. William Lefkowitz, of I the University of Kansas City I School of Dentistry, said 17 of ! 19 teeth treated with electric ; current showed a thicker lay- cr of secondary dentin than is i usually produced during the tooth's self-repairing process. The layers of secondary dentin form within the tooth to thicken the wall between the pulp (nerve) and the de cay, he said. Although removal of decay and the filling of teeth will still be necessary, satd Lef kowitz, the use of electric cur rent in producing additional dentin "would be of decided advantage." I kept wishing for Potpourri because all yards were massed rainbows of colorful flowers. I'm certain some of the pe onies were a foot in diameter. And such an abundance of wild flowers! I saw all the many varieties I gathered as a child, including the fragrant, pink wild rose and the syringa (mock orange blossom), we called them. I remember clutching the flowers in my hot, little hands and taking them to Mother completely wilted and drooping. How ever, she accepted them with the gracious enthusiasm of a debutant receiving a corsage of orchids. A lovely memory for me now. We should be deeply grate ful for our National parks, forests, monuments and wild erness areas! Without them our grand or great-grand chil dren might never know the real America, which may soon be buried under acres of con crete. . Any attempt to describe Glacier park would be pre posterous, but I do think that just the one drive across the park from the West on the "Going-to-the-Sun" highway is well worth anyone's time, gas and effort. The scenery was particularly spectacular on the bright, sunny day we went through, following a recent snow fall. The huge, high snow banks, valleys, flats, glaciers and peaks were all dazzlingly white and clean. Often, amid such natural beauty, we wish for certain friends to swell our duet of "ohs" and "ahs" to a chorus; but our pattern of travel could not be everyone's cup-'o-tea. We may start off in the morn ing anytime from 8:30 to 11:30 o'clock, stop anytime between 1:30 and 4 p.m., pass up an intended stop if it doesn't appeal to us or linger on if it does prove of interest. We can't stand schedules and we don't like reservations, so we must have with us kindred, vagabond souls as companions. WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon State University Picnic food needs to be handled right if the occasion is to have a happy ending. Virginia Weiser, Oregon State University extension nutritionist, lists some foods which might cause food poi soning if not kept chilled. These are: potato salad, salad dressing, meats, fish, poultry, pies, cream sauces, custards, milk and milk products. Don't allow these out of the refrigerator any longer than necessary. Certainly no more than two hours warns Miss Weiser. Check Insurance Vacationing soon? Don't forget to check your personal property insurance policy to see if it includes a floater clause, says Mrs. Alberta Johnston, OSU family finance specialist for the Extension service. It's well to have your cloth ing, camera and other belong ings covered wherever you are. You can take out insur ance by the day for the time you'll be gone. Be sure to tell the insurance agent if these items are likely to be in an unattended car at any time. Mrs. Johnston also suggests that you check costs of adding a floater clause to your regu lar insurance policy so you'll be covered all year. Wheels on Furniture Outdoor furniture needs to be moved about to follow the sun or shade. To save your Pocahontas Lodge Ceremonies 'Set Installation of officers will be conducted by Weatonka council, Degree of Pocahontas lodge Friday; July 12 at 8 p.m., in Redman hall on Apple street. Members should take pies for refreshments. The social committee for the month is made up of Mrs. Jack Thomas, Mrs. Norma Pittman and Mrs. Chester Susich. Guests Mrs. L. R. Duffield Jr., and daughter, Sandra, Tucson, Ariz., are houseguests of Mrs. Duffield's sister, Mrs. Robert Hart, 737 Stevens street. They plan to remain for about 10 days. back, get your favorite do-it-yourselfer to put wheels on two adjacent legs of tables and heavy chairs. Then you simply pick up the other side wheelbarrow fashion and roll it about. The nice part abouut using wheels on one side of a table only, is that it doesn't roll away when you're cutting your steak. Mind Your Motions Working wives-what kind of homemaker are you? Havo to have everything shining? Long to be perfect but lack the time? Or are you one who dislikes housekeeping? To each his own! Thera isn't any one way to do the job so don't apologize. Accept yourself, but look about for ways to have more time. For example, while pinch ing pennies, remember time is money. Traveling five miles out of the way to save a few cents isn't real economy. Save minutes here and there by minding your mo tions fof such simple jobs as bedmaking, table setting or ironing. Use the best tool for the job. Maybe some of the money you earn could be used for an appliance which saves time, such as a dish washer. Or perhaps you'll be working smarter if you send out part of the laundry.
