An Active Gray Lady, Mrs. McIntire
Also Has Numerous Other Interests
.By Frances Lide

Of her efforts. She hasn't tran
scribed recently, but a check she
received for making a commence
ment address last year at the New
York Institute for the Education of
the Blind was Endorsed to the IL
brary.s Mrs. McIntire requested that
part of 1t be used to have +Who
Walk Alone" by Perry Burgess,
transcribed into Braille. Some Of
the remainder paid for transcribing
an article by Admiral McIntire on
the late President Roosevelt, en-
titled "Unconquerable Spirit" which
appeared in a populars periodical.
Incidentally, the money went to
blind transcribers, for only sightless
persons are remunerated for this
work by the library.
For the past II years Admiral
and Mrs. McIntire have resided in
Spring Valley and their home re-
veals that Mrs. McIntire has still
another range of interests. Here
no knocker Is needed, for the visitor
is greeted by the spirited barks Of
two Pekinese dogs. Called Tzu and
Chan. they rule supreme, but as
their mistress says: "a house is not
a home without a dog"
Friendly and hospitable, Mrs. Nc
Intire enjoys entertaining and al
ways has small group in for sup
per every other Sunday evening.
Incidentally, she doesn't serve
drinks, for neither she nor the ad-
miral cares for alcohol. She laugh
ingly recalls that at cocktail parties
she used to slip the contents OF her
glass into the nearest potted plant
but she no longer finds this reces-
sary as most of her friends have
learned her preference for tea. :.
Mrs. Mc1ntire Is a good house,
keeper when she has to be. At the
present time her household is run
BY a Polish French couple and she
says that ''life began again in Feb
ruary" when they returned home to
her after working several years In a
defense plant.
Her skill with q needle is evil
denced by the handsome needle
point which covers many of the
chairs and several screens in her
house.
One OF the most popular spots in
the McIntire home Is the admiral's
library where the walls are lined
with photographs and mementoes
OF his naval career. The deep adj
miration and affection they both
felt for President Roosevelt Is mani
tested at every turn by the arrange
ment Of numerous pictures OF the
late Chief Executive. One Of their
prised possessions is 3 china fig-
urine Of three pigs, posed as the
three monkeys who speak, hear and
see no evil, which came from Presi-
dent RooseveltS desk.
Reared In Port Chester, N. 81. !,
Mrs. McIntire was christened Paul
Inc but Is better known as Polly.
She attended Rye Seminary, Packer
Institute and the Savage School Of
Physical Education.

Hope Held For Missing Packer

SEATTLE, (P)-Hope that 30- year-old Joe Blackburn, missing four days, still waged a fight for life in the snow-blanketed Amer ican ridge district high in Wash ington's Cascades was expressed by searchers today with the return of the packers horse to his cabin.
 H. L. Plumb of Seattle, Sno- qualmie National Forest supervis- or, said the animal returned to the packers home at Goose Prairie yesterday uninjured and with its saddle and bridle removed.
 The searching party took this to mean that Blackburn had not been involved in a fall and, if able to remove the saddle and bridle, was uninjured.
 Efforts to backtrack the animal through the SnoW-covered noun tains were halted by darkness but were to be taken up at dawn to- day.
 Blackburn became lost after he set out last Thursday to search for Blake Lowry of Richland, lost hunter, who was found later that same day.

 Prices On Paints

WASHINGTON, P) OPA raised prices of most paints today by 3l cents to $l.30 a gallon.

 Most of the products that go into soaps also have been decon- trolled.
 The point increases are effective today at the manufacturers level and may be passed on by all re- sellers until they reach consumers.
 The OPA announcement said the higher paint ceilings "are de- signed to remove any price inn pediment to production of the sup ply of paints needed for the vet erans housing program"
 OPA promised to watch market prices of linseed oil ito determine ii further price action will be needed"
 OPA announced the increases apply lon all trade sales paints those sold over the counter-and on the intermediate oleoresinous liquids used as grinding vehicles in manufacture of paint.

Cotton EASY on Land

Cotton removes less fertility from
the soil than other major crops. Ex-
pertinent station authorities say
that cotton is the easiest crop on
the land from the standpoint of U.s.
ing soil nutrients. Grown in rota-
ton with soil improving crops, and
with cottonseed feed products fed on
the farm, cotton fits ideally into a
soil conservation program.
