Upon hearing that Sclh Bullis arrives at
the news room of The Medford Mail Tribune
every Saturday morning at 11 o'clock with a
large sack of cookies plus other nibble foods
for his friends on the staff, Safeway stores
Seth Bullis has many titles, some official, some unofficial,
some affectionate and many respectful. He's a former district
manager for the California-Oregon Power Company, a past
president of Jackson County Civic Music Association and of the
county Red Cross Chapter, has worked with other civic groups
and is an amateur historian with a head crammed full of inter
esting and useful information about Medford and Jackson County.
Many refer to Mr. Bullis as. "Mr. Medford" and many others are
pleased to call him friend.
He bears one title, however, that isn't generally known. He
is the Busy Baker Ambassador for The Medford Mall Tribune,
and has a handsome certificate attesting thereto. Mr. B. has
earned the title, too.
For quite some time now Mr. Bullis has been calling at The
Tribune news room every Saturday morning at 11 o'clock. If he
doesn't arrive, there are only two reasons. He's either out of the
city or ill. And what's more, appreciating the fact that reporters
and editors have an extraordinary capacity for devouring food of
all sorts, he always comes bearing a large sack of cookies plus
boxes of crackers or other goodies. It would be no exaggeration
to say that since he developed this friendly habit, Seth has bought
several hundred pounds of food for the news roomers.
Debonair Mr. B. dispenses charm and goodwill, too. He always
wears a boutonnicre, usually a tiny pink rose, and is in a good
humor.
One Saturday morning, munching a cookie, Pal Peg decided
that perhaps Safeway stores would like to know about what goes
on in Medford every Saturday morning, since Mr. B. buys most
of his offerings in a Safeway store. Being a woman of action, she
then and there wrote a letter to the administrative office in Oak
land, Calif. She explained that not only did he keep The Mail
Tribune larder filled with eineersnnps, cocoasnaps, etc., but that
he was a most unusual man referred to as the "vice president of
everything and "mayor of southern Oregon.
R. W. Church, manager of the Bakery Division of Safeway,
was a man of action, too, and in no time at all, Pal Peg received
the framed certificate. It was presented with due flourish (on a
Saturday morning, of course) and now hangs on the wall of Mr.
B's office at Pacific Power and Light Company.
And It's just like Pal Peg wrote In her thank-you letter to Mr.
Church, after Scth's certificate had arrived. "Who says big busi
ness doesn't have a heart!" O.S.

Dinettes
Now Show
Formality
By MARGARET McELHENY
CHICAGO (UPI) Dinettes
introduced at the recent Inter
national Home Furnishings
Market here showed a trend
toward greater formality.
Table tops of high pressure
laminates duplicated the color
and patterns of fine woods and
marbles. Metal has been fash
ioned into graceful shapes, even
into fluted classic lines.
The formal trend was ex
plained by Henry 0. Radloff,
head of marketing activities for
B. Broady Seating company
here.
The kitchen has become the
most expensive room in the av
erage American home, he said.
It represents a cost of more
than $2,500 for refrigerator,
range, deluxe sink, disposer,
cabinets, and counters.
'It iust doesn't look right
from a decorative standpoint
when the homcmakcr puts a
dining set that costs $50 or $60
in such a setting.
"In homes with separate din
ing rooms, kitchen dining fur
niture may be even more im
portant because most families
eat the majority of their meals
in the kitchen."
Restricted Space
Another reason for high-styl
ed kitchen furniture is the re
stricted space of many new
homes and apartments and the
emergence of living-dining area
combinations.
"Homes lacking dining rooms
require furniture that does the
job of the kitchen and dining
room," Kadlotf said, adding:
And from the standpoint of
teaching young children proper
table manners, you can t expect
them to learn if the setting isn't
right. Certainly, sitting on a bar
stool at a kitchen snack bar
isn't the best kind of training
environment."
Radloff admits that dinettes
in new styles and finishes can
cost as much as a dining room
table.
"You can see the trend your
self in your local furniture or
department store," he said.
"You'll find the starter sets
in chrome, bronze, or black fin
ishes for lens than S75. But
you'll also find dining sets at
J249 and even higher."
Artery Hardening
Begins in Infancy
NEW YORK (UPI) The
hardening of arteries, a dis
ease usually associated wun
old age, actually may begin in
imancy.
A study of the coronary ar
teries of 25 dead inlants and
children by a team of research
ers, headed by Dr. A. S. Uaoud,
from Albany Medical College
and Veteran s Administration
hospital, Albany, N.Y., showed
the existence of fatty patches
and wall thickening.
The children varied in age
from stillborn to 15 years.
These conditions were found to
be more pronounced with age,
and the researchers say "may
represent the early stages of
arteriosclerotic heart disease."
Their report was in a recent
publication of the Journal of
The American Medical Associa
tion. SEWING CLASSES

Retarded
Child
Is Subject
By Gay Pauley
UPI Women's Editor
NEW YORK (UPI)-Retarded
children are more like other
children than unlike them. Like
normal children, retarded chil
dren are sensitive to the opinion
of others. And, there is much
the mentally retarded children
can learn, if parents and teach
ers help him with what most
normal children absorb or ngure
out by themselves.
These are among the several
points made in a publication
which arrives only a few days
after President Kennedy signed
legislation authorizing a $329
million program to deal witn
mental retardation through the
construction of community
health centers and through re
search and treatment.
The President's sister, Rose
mary, oldest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph P. Kennedy,
is in an institution for the men
tally retarded.
"People used to be ashamed
of a mentally retarded child,"
the president's mother told one
reporter recently. "That's not
true today. People don't think
a child should be shunted away,
and not mentioned."
Mrs. Kennedy told of the
family foundation that has given
more than $16.5 million since
1946 to hospitals, institutions,
day care centers and research
projects in the field of mental
health.
The author of the publication,
'The Retarded Child Gets Ready
for School,' is concerned par
ticularly with education because
she says it determines to a
great extent how successful the
child will be in leading as nor
mal a life as possible.
The booklet is the work of
Mrs. Margaret Hill, education
chairman of the Wyoming
IVERSON'S
Cornor 6th & Holly
ti iiHt'imiii- 1, j iw
Woman
Leisure . . . Arts
American actor, is shown here
"A Thousand Clowns" which
season. Mr. Ireland and young
actor is cast as a "wise beyond
branch of the National Associa
tion for Retarded Children and
writer on the subjects of men
tal health, child-rearing and
education. The publisher is the
Public Affairs Committee, a
non-profit . education organiza
tion founded in 1935.
Mrs. Hill explains there are
varying degrees of retardation
and that sometimes it is neces
sary to institutionalize a child
who is so severely retarded
that his physical care makes
the family tense, irritable and
overly-fatigued.
The author shows through the
contrasts in the story of twin
boys, one of whom is retarded,
one not, how a family can pro
pare a retarded youngster for
scrool.
She reminded that a handicap
ped child should not be iden
tified by his exceptionality as
"that deaf boy," "that retarded
child," "the girl with the limp."
"Retarded children are more
like other children than unlike
them," she said, "and general
goals for educating the retarded
should follow, in so far as prac
tical, the same goals for educa
tion of normal children ... in
self-sufficiency, economic use
fulness, satisfying human rela
tionships, civic responsibility."
"Obviously," she added, "the
degree to which each of these
goals can be fulfilled varies ac
cording to the nature and sever
ity of the child s mental deticit.

Theater Good Recreation
Says Thespian Director
In producing "Inherit the
Wind" at Medford High School
auditorium November 21, 22 and
23, the local affiliate of the Na
tional Thespian Society contin
ues its policy of promoting
"theatre as a wholesome rec
reation for adults and high
school students", according to
the director, Mrs. Lenore Za-
pell.
The three-act drama, called
by reviewers one of the most
"provocative and "theatrically
effective" plays recently pre
sented on the American scene,
suggests "the pathos of the
small-towners struggle with or
thodoxy, and the hope contained
in the Biblical passage 'He that
troubleth his own house shall
inherit the wind: and the fool
shall be servant to the wise at
heart'." ("Saturday Review").
Rehearsals now in progress
on the high school stage are
aimed through close attention to
