SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER . HUM 10 c MANOR-ISMS MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON By ETHELYN EVANS Our Manor membership is in deed a cross-section, vocational ly speaking, of our valley and national population. Those members who are only semi retired or not at all, illustrate this fact in the variety of pro fessional or industrial activi ties that keep them busy from day to day. Both the Rev. and Mrs. Rob ert Bridge served in the mis sionary field for many years. They were sent from their Eng lish headquarters tn the Baha ma islands. This synod includ ed Key West. Later they were transferred to Key West where ! Both the Rev. Mr. Bridge became i have career of servce in the Episco palian church more than 50 years ago as rector of a large church on an Indian reserva tion in British Columbia. He and Mrs. Moss at that time were the only white commu cants in the parish. After a long and distinguished career, Ca non Moss retired while in Pasa dena, Calif. Since moving into the Manor, he has been most diligent and helpful in the work of St. Mark's church in Mod ford, and has initiated a regu lar communion service for Episcopalians in the Manor. Canon and Mrs. Moss recently returned from the pastor of a church predomi-1 British Columbia where he was nantly colored, since many of on vacation duty in the church the members had moved there i at Nanaimo. from the Bahamas and wanted their former pastor to continue to serve them. This was not widely publicized, as was one such incident in our own country quite recently, be cause ministering to this col ored congregation was consid ered routine. There was no question of integration In Bri tish territory in those days. Sev eral assignments in the U.S.A. followed this service, and the Bridges spent a number of Washington u.c, Mrs. G. W. (Irene) Woodcock, the, professional artist I have mentioned before, sold practi cally all her paintings when she moved from Hawaii, so she is now busy each day painting others for future exhibitions and sale. Mrs. W. K. (Anne B.) Fisher disciplines herself to daily hours of intense writing, preparing for the autumn publication of ; another book. Mrs. Fisher writes many of her books on assign ment, and a very large number WORK SMARTER - NOT HARDER I Togetherness Has Come To the Game of Billiards To smile takes 13 facial SUS' cles while 47 are needed to frown.

The magic of black and white is expertly displayed here in a cape dress of cotton. High in front with a scooped flowing back, the detachable cape gives an important fashion touch to the sleeveless dress underneath. Addie Masters is the designer. years in where the Rev.

Recent houseguests of Dr. and Mrs. George Brccce, Mrs. Gail Robinson and her daughter, Miss Virginia Laws, thought up a unique thank you gesture.

We'd like to caution you against putting the cleaner on the thermostat bulb. This is the small tube you'll find usually near the top and at one side of the oven. The cleaner may cause corrosion of this metal and interfere with the tempera ture control. However, the oven lining is not hurt by the chemical. Prevent mildew in awnings and tents by treating with a mildew resistant finish. These products can be bought at drug stores. Awnings should be lowered immediately after rain so dirty water will not collect in folds and cause stains. Many refrigerators conk out during this season. If you bought yours around 1950 or earlier, better have some money set aside. Surveys show you can't expect more than about IB years use. sometimes less. We're often asked what size to buy. This depends a lot on the family. It might help to know that nearly four out of ten families bought a 14 cubic foot size or larger this year. Bigger ones get more popular e a c n year. By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon Stata University don't let them stand more than an hour before cooking begins. Roasts chilled to the core or frozen meats partially thawed can stand up to two hours. Pud dings and custards that cook in a dish surrounded by ice water can stand an hour. Why not practice using your automatic oven timer when you are at home so you'll feel con fident you have operated it cor rectly. Busy mothers do you make the most of your automatically timed ovens? You can get extra bonus time away from the kit chen because the oven turns on and turns off in your absence. Make sure foods you choose are safe to place in the oven ahead of time. Virginia Weiser, OSU Extension nutrition special ist, says to thoroughly chill milk, eggs, meat and fish and Fruits Pakistani Make Different, Tasty Appetizer For an appetizer with a truly dilterent and delightful taste, serve "Fruits Pakistani."

Increasingly, the an cient game is played at home apparently on the theory that families who play to gether, stay to gether. Even the New York department of A WA state spelled out "-- what a billiards game should be in a ruling re cently when it suspended the li cense of an Elmira, N.Y., oper ator of a parlor for obstructing from clear view the lower third of the parlor's windows. This, the department said, was a violation of the state law, which in licensing billiard es tablishments follows the "legis lative intent" that the game should be a "good, clean, fam ily fun" activity. One industry source says that every state has some sort of legislation controlling billiards establishments and in addition there are municipal ordinances.

It estimates that nation ally, 10.3 per cent of the popula tion, representing more than 18 million persons, participates in the sport. By 1964, the total will be more than 24 million, the firm predicts. In a study, the researchers found home billiards popular with 43.8 per cent of the males and 69 per cent of the females playing the game, either in their own or a friend's home. The study also showed the teen-age market represented 37 per cent of players at away from home centers, either bil liard rooms or combination bil liard and bowling establish ments. In the combination cen ters, the teen-ager comes close to being 50 per cent of the op erator's business; in establish ments for billiards alone, only 23 per cent because of legal restrictions. died in 148 A.D.. lett beninu "fifty-five billiard balls of brass, and pools and cues." Washington Played Billiards Researchers for the firm said that George Washington had a table in his Mount Vernon home where he played the game with Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and the French statesman and general, the Mar quis De Lafayette. One of the great billiard play ers of modern times was Wil liam F. Hoppe, who won 51 titles in his long career. He died in 1959 at the age of 71. Rejuvenation of the game for the whole family began about two years ago when the dimly lighted "pool hall" began to get its face lifted. As New York's department of state remarked in that an nouncement of suspension of one proprietor's license, "manufac turers have encouraged prospec tive proprietors to erase the old 'pool hall' image of smoke-filled rooms and hustling shady char acters for one of pine paneling. plush carpeting, air-conditioned halls and modern equipment." The traditional green table surface has given way to other colors, partly because manufac turers want to lure Mom and the kids as well as Dad. Tables now are available In deep blue, gold, tangerine or classic white, with cloths of fered in blue, beige, deep tan gerine, gold or green. "Mix or match colors of ta bles and cloths," said a spokes man for Brunswick, "and you come up with more than 20 com binations available."
