evening enjoyed. The dining room
was beautifully decorated, the ceiling
being studded with hundreds of brill
liant gold and yellow butterflies. The
tables we're adorned with large bowls
of nasturtiums, the very simpleness
of the decoration lending to the en-

The power of the women's organ
izations toward the upbuilding of a
community is strongly shown in the
following article, which is self-ex-
planatory:
Trees planted in the parkings, a
cleanup day yearly, a curfew law
and useful city ordinances in applica-
tion, better all-round sanitary condi-
tions, together with the commodious
Carnegie library building-these
things are some of the evidences of
activity on the part of the Greater
Medford Club
An amateur rose show was held
last year and early last fall a rose
day was observed, $4,000 rose cut
tings being distributed to school chill
dren. Lectures were given in the
schools and expert instruction
through the columns of the newspa-
pers on care and planting. Later a
gift from Medford citizen made it
possible to distribute $500 worth of
dahlia bulbs. These efforts not only
tended to make the city more beauti-
full, but were direct preparation for
the Rogue River Valley Rose Festi-
val, which was held in May, and also
for display of dahlias to be made at
the county fair.
The club has it's headquarters in
the library building, which is the out
growth of a free reading room that
it established and maintained. 1t is
federated with both the state and the
general organizations and is now con-
Quoted on the departmental plan,
supporting five departments, social
literature, educational, civics and

was Mrs. L. P.lHubbs and Mrs. M. L.
Afford was elected secretary, holding
the office for six years. The charter
membership was about twenty and
! the object was the study of civics and
promotion work.
The first active enterprise under.

the bulk is made up of cheap
materials that have no leavening
power. These powders are SO
carelessly made from inferior ma
terials that they Will not always

ther, these cheap baking powders
have q very small percentage of

from two to three times as much
of such powder to raise the cake
