Empty Bottles Useful
As Flower Containers
In this era of casual enter
taining in home recreation
rooms, empty bottles can be
most useful as containers for
unusual floral arrangements.
With few exceptions, flower
arrangements in bottles are In
formal in feeling since the very
nature of the container itself is
casual and unassuming, points
out the Society of American
Florists.
The clever hostess can use a
wide variety of flowers and
green foliage in such arrange
ments. These vary from a sim
ple rhythmic spray to a group
ing of blooms to a highly styl
ized arrangement of cut flowers.
Bottle containers inflict few
limitations. One of these is that
most bottles have a slenderness
that requires a vertical design
in the arrangements. A few
types of bottles, however, have
squat shapes that call for low
rounded flower arrangements.
Generally speaking, the soci
ety says, bottles are symmetri
cal in design, but the over all
arrangement is most attractive
in an asymmetrical pattern or
informal balance.
The hostess should seek com
patibility between the flowers
and container in size, color, tex
ture, and spirit. For example,
the society suggests the casual
composition required with a
Mexican bottle could be han
dled with five sprays of celosia,
ranging in color from pink to
wine, and a spray of plum fo
liage. Another suggetion is for a
wine bottle in wicker which is
casual and tics in with either
modern or traditional decor.
This arrangement can include i
three white pompons, grouped
informally with autumn grasses.
The round form of a Victorian
milk glass bottle calls for a
rounded form in an arrange
ment. White mums with a tint
of vellow. and five veltnw roses !
with curving stems, could be
used advantageously.
To show how flexible bottle
container arrangements can be,
the society suggests placing a
floral arrangement in a suitable
bottle on a hanging shelf. In the
arrangement, use spider plant
branches with one branch fall-

"Introductions and Invita

program given by Mrs. James
Butler for a meeting of Alpha
Beta chapter, Beta Sigma Phi
sorority, held September 10 at
the home of Mrs. Charles Tuck
er, 1551 Johnson street.
Plans were made for fund
raising projects.
Mrs. Tucker reported on the
progress of arrang'.-menis for
the state convention to be held
in Medford next year at the
Armory.
A report was given by Mrs.
Eldon Johnson on the School

cussed the possibility of aiding
the school and helping sponsor
the children. A letter from the
sorority's national office sent
congratulations upon achieving
a three star chapter for the
year 1962-63.
Hostess for the evening was

ing below the shelf. In the cen
ter of the arrangement, where
a broader form is needed, a pos
sibility is a Spathiphyllum.
Need No Aids
One of the many assets of bot
tle container arrangements is
that you don't need mechanical
aids such as needle holders or
chicken wire. The slim necks of
bottles support flowers ade
quately. However, warns the society,
don't crowd the stems. They
may become bruised and unable
to draw water up to the blooms.
With clear glass or light-colored
bottles when you can see
the stems, be extra careful in
placing the flowers. They must
be considered as an interesting
part of the total picture.

Speaks
ASHLAND When members
of the Ashland Garden club and
their husbands met September
6 for a dinner and program,
they were given a geological
history of southern Oregon by
Dr. Elmo N. Stevenson.
The soil in which Ashlanders
raise fruits and flowers had its
beginnings in eras dating back
100 or more million years ago
said the Southern Oregon col
lege president, whose particular
field is geology. He traced brief
ly the development of the moun
tain ranges of the Pacific coast,
telling of the time when this
valley was a shallow ocean lake
with a tropical plant life.
The speaker said that a part
of the college campus rests upon
a quagmire in which fossils,
ferns and dinosaur remains
have been found. He displayed
a fossil shark's tooth discover
ed when excavating for new
buildings.
Dr. Stevenson declared that
this area is the botanist's para
dise with its rare species of
plant life, the geologist's de
light because of its prehistoric
deposits, and the bird lover's
iov with its varied climates.
Mrs. Dale Hoover introduced
the speaker and the club presi
dent, Mrs. E. A. Bay, presided.
Hostesses for the buffet dinner
were the Mesdames William H.
Davis, W. A. Polenz, W. S. Sten
nett and Mrs. Richard H. West
erfield. The meeting was held
in the Women's Civic clubhouse
on Winburn way.
