Unique Surprise Party Honors Minister And Wife By STAFF WRITER Giving flowers to the living has always been a strong policy of the Pollyanna club at Little River Bap tist church, but never have they so magnificently demonstrated it as when they went all out with a :’:rthday and anniversary party nonoring their pastor and wife, Rev. and Mrs. John T. Neal. While the Neals were away on a vacation, the valley folks were busy with their plans. At the celebra tion practically every Little resi dent had a part in honoring this couple who have contributed so much to community life. Although Mr. Neal knew of plans for a party, his wife walked into the Community building Aug ust 6th thinking she was going to chaperone a young people’s affair. Imagine her surprise when the cherub choir, which she directs, appropriately sang “Happy Birth day” upon her entrance. The Neals’ anniversary was the 6th and Mrs. Neal’s birthday August 4th. Mrs. Neal was led to the chair of honor by “Uncle” Henry Nich olson. Then the honors really be gan. She was crowned “Queen” for the evening by Mrs. Hal Med Distinguished for its Special quality §^; t*''*'?**«*' VAUIAMJ COUPON ON IVttY BAQ CAN Hill YOU tAVl MONIY ON HOUSIHOLO IYIMS Writ, I **r<t mmt ™h»H« tmmfciH wtltlw.

A quartette composed of Mr. and Mrs. Neal Hamilton, Mrs. Elmer Kilstrom and Fred Kilstrom sang “Give Them the Flowers While They’re Living.” A basket was placed, beside Mrs. Neal into which people placed a flower, each one a tribute to her for some activity. She leads the cherub choir, the Girls’ Auxiliary, is superintendent of the Sunday school beginners' department, lead er of the Story Hour in training school, Training Union director, president of the Home Demnstra tion club, youth choir director. Mrs. Neal attends all of the circle meet ings each month, drives many miles taking persons to and from church, writes the weekly community new* for The Transylvania Times, visits the sick and has made many trips with local persons to the Baptist hospital, in addition to the smaller chores expected of a rural minis ter’s wife. As the party concluded the quartette sang “Your Life Can Be Beautiful” and many lovely gifts were presented to the honoree. A color scheme of red and white was used to decorate the com munity building. A large table was overlaid with a white linen cloth and centered with a huge cake sur rounded by red flowers. Tall red and white candles in chrystal hold ers were also used in the decora tion. At each end of the table were florist baskets filled with red and white glads and palm fern. Delicious refreshments were served to conclude the joyous oc casion. Perhaps typical of Mrs. Neal’s devotion to duty was her expres sion of pleasure over her favorite birthday gift—a steel filing cab inet! New Finish On Fabrics Described One of the newer fashion fabric finishes (called “Hydro-Pruf”) is said to be water and spot repellent and more crease resistant than ev er. It can be applied to just about every fabric you can think of, in cluding corduroys, cottons, wools, rayons, velvets, satins, suedes and even mounton-dyed lamb. There is said to be greater resis tance to fading, retention of light fastness, less needle cutting and, a durable water repellency when this spot resistant finish is used. From their appearance you’d never knw that many of the smart new clothes have been treated with this new silicone resin finish. If cherries are to be held after purchase, store them in the re frigerator, spread out on a tray. Do not wash them until you are ready to use them.

AUTUMN SWEATERS are com ing in for their share of interest by no less than two and one-half million students who will be wending their way to college and universities this fall. Most enthusiastic are the gals, many of whom will be knitting some of their own sweaters. It has been said that the college girl owns from six to 20 sweaters. This classic style, perfect for wear on any campus, can be made by the most amateurish knitter. Directions in sizes 12-14-16 are available without charge by send ing a stamped-self addressed en velope to the Woman’s Page Ed itor requesting them. Do - It - Yourself Craze Extends To Paris Designers The “Do-It-Yourself” craze has even hit the designing and dress making business. Now it’s a do-it yourself kit for American home makers wanting Paris fashions at low cost. It’s the Brainchild oi French designer Serge Kogan and American promoter Philip Gelb. Ii their plan succeeds, the average American homemaker may soon be able to order a French package complete with pattern, fabric, trim ming and Paris label, for a modesl sum of $15 to $20. At the party in Paris held re cently to introduce this novel idea. Mannequins modelled pretty clothes made from this Paris “Do-It Yourself” kit. And at the showing a seamstress in a corner stitched up a coat, to show how quick and easy it could be. Gelb, who has worked in France for 10 years, says he is aiming di rectly at the estimated 30 million American women who make some or all of fheii* own clothes. The models they showed in brocades, tweeds and flannels, fol lowed the new fashion silhouette faithfully. They included such prac tical double-duty details as button off capes and boleros. The look on the whole, was young and col legiate. NOTICE TO CREDITORS The undersigned, having quali tied as Executor of the Estate oi Charlotte W.

Weight Watching Game Easier In Summer Weather Women who want to look their best in their bathing suits now as well as later on in their new fall clothes, will find it’s easier to do a little necessary dieting during hot weather. Appetites usually lag a bit anyway at this time, so it’s easier to eat less. But make sure you get enough vitamins and min erals which are so necessary to good health. Research has shown that a per son on a reducing diet gets along best when he or she consumes more protein than usual. This is a good reason for including plenty of milk—particularly skim milk or buttermilk, in a slimming diet. Skim milk or buttermilk contains all the nutrients of whole milk ex cept fat and vitamin A, yet one cup of either type of milk contains only 85 calories as compared with 165 calories in a cup of whole milk. Cottage cheese also is a fine ad dition to a reducing diet. It makes an excellent salad when served with tomatoes, peaches or apri cots. If you’re a weight watcher, serve whole tomatoes stuffed with cot tage cheese, or crisp lettuce, to day. Or try yog over salad greens. The yogurt may be mixed with a little minced onion and paprika if you like. With the salad, you might serve a variety of sliced cold meats, crisp celery, bread and butter pickles, and a choice of hot or cold deverage. CORN FLAVORFUL Corn adds a special look to any outdoor or indoor meal right now. To get really flavorful sweet corn, try for the quickest and coolest handling between field and dinner table. A few growers pick sweet corn before the sun is hot, chill it in the field, and most grocers keep it chilled in the store. If you can’t find it in the diction ary, atlas or encyclopedia, try Varner’s Drug Store.—adv. COOKS’ ORNER -BY ADELAIDE VAN WEY I received a wonderful letter from Carolyn Kizer Mather, all the way from San Francisco.
