Mrs. Vivian Giles and Miss Edna Stanbrough joined in giving us such a program -Mrs. Giles at the piano and Miss Stambrough playing the Hammond organ. This is the third delightful concert these two have given us. They play in perfect unison with the same or complementing inter pretation. The solemnity and beauty of the setting was most im pressive, with our colorful plastic "stained-glass" window screen on the plain gold back ground of the platform, candelabra holding white ta pers on either side of it, one enormous green fern on the stage and two large, white urns filled with gladioli at the footlights. The curtain slowly parted while our musicians were playing "Blest Be the Tie." Both are handsome women, and their snow-white hair and pure-white robes completed the picture. They played the beautiful old hymns with elaborate instru mental arrangements; and I am sure many reacted as I did - a tight throat and unshed tears. Every seat in the audi torium was filled and many standing in the rear. Thanks to air conditioning, enthusiasts for popular win- i ter a c t i v 1 1 1 e s haven't the , slightest idea of abandoning 1 them for the summer. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Day have always been the leaders in our ball room dancing crowd, but dur ing Mr. Day's enforced ab sence only the square dancing crowd flourished. However, last week Mr. Day came back and arranged a regular "open ing night" for the resumption of the weekly dances. He en gaged outside, live music -Mrs. Otto DeJarnctt with her accordion (Mr. DeJarnett came along, also, and never missed a dance) and J. P. Graham with a banjo. Our cd, to wit: the Lausmann fam ily.

Our community sing group likewise refuses to disband for the summer months. They evidently intend to "sing along" with the director, Ralph Moore, without pause. This week something was add- "Tony," varied the sing with instrumental numbers. Other Manor members who base been Canadian travelers are wandering back home now. Mrs. Neal McGrady and Miss Florence Morris have re turned weary but jubilant from 11,000 miles of motor ing. They crossed central U.S.A., drove through New England and around the Gaspe Peninsula in Eastern Canada, back across our north ern states, visited Glacier Park, crossed back into West ern Canada, went to Lake Louise and Banff and then back home. (Jlanor members Mr. and Mrs. Paul Weidner have been entertaining for their son, Paul Jr., from Houston, Texas, and we have enjoyed him very much. Both father and son are Standard Oil mch (not all of our members chose the academic field, you will no tice) - one with the Indiana company and one with the New Jersey. It would seem there is considerable rivalry between the many divisions and subsidiaries of the hugh Standard Oil industry, each striving to outdo the other. The younger Mr. Weidner spent a number of years In charge of various foreign branches, and his father has covered a good part of South America selecting refinery lo cations. Mr. and Mrs. Weid ner have many pictures of their travels and explain them vividly with many in teresting items not usually known. Mrs. Weidner has held a number of DAR offices else where and is now chairman of entertainment and an active member of the Crater Lake chapter, Medford. Richard Browns Have Houseguests Ashland Mr. and Mrs. Richard Brown, 393 Granita street, have as houseguests) Mrs. Brown's sisters, Mrs. Ora Sherwood and Mrs. Lulu Smith, Long Beach, Calif. They have been attending the Oregon Shakespearean plays as well as taking sightseeing trips in the valley. The mid dle of August they plan to go to Portland for a visit, ac companied by Mrs. Brown and by her grandson, Louis Anderson of Portland, who has spent the summer vaca tion with his grandparents. rPENNEY'S ALWAYS FIRST QUALITY DOWNTOWN . . .
