Everyone was dressed in her best bib and tucker and the whole atmosphere bespoke the importance of the occasion. It was Akron Garden club's 25th anniversary tea. The presidents played hosts to the club at the home of the present president, Mrs. Lee L.

Bottsford, Thursday afternoon. The club honored the memory of their founder, the late Mrs. F. A. SeiberliiiK.

She callod together the group who were to become the charter members and asked Mrs. Kermode F. Gill to come from Cleveland to help organize the first garden club in Summit county.

MRS. FRED HARPHAM succeeded Mrs. Seiberling as president. Next came Mrs. H.

R. Preston was next and then came Mrs. A. J. Sears, Mrs.

R. S. Wilson, Mrs. B. M.

Robinson, Mrs. Allan Johnson, Mrs. L. A. Reed and Mrs.

J. B. Brown. They made a delightful picture as they stood before the old-fashioned fireplace in the Bottsford living room. Each wore a tiny corsage made in nosegay fashion.

Thirteen of the charter members are still active in the club and only two were absent. Mrs. James Robertson and Mrs. Hoyt could not be there. Mrs.

Garden club leaders greet Mrs. Hyde at tea rOUMER: 'Manners Preferred To Morals' F.y MARION GEVER "A LOT OF PEOPLE spend their entire lives doing and saying things that make other people want to shoot them," Maxims Berlitz Vollmer, vivacious New Yorker, said Thursday at Akron Woman's City club.

"The things that make us dislike people are on the whole tremendous trifles," Mrs. Vollmer said. She was making a return appearance on the club's Town Hall series to discuss "How to Lose Friends and Irritate People." "There are more thoughtless persons than mean ones," she said in discussing the curious psychology of Insult and nasty repartee. Better Company "MOST OF US would rather be with a secretly immoral person than a rude one. Generally speaking we prefer the polite to the moral person, on casual acquaintance," she declaerd.

"We ean forgive an injury more than an Insult." Careless smoking habits are a sure way to lose friends and irritate, Mrs. Vollmer stated. Women, she went on to siy, are the worst offenders. Mrs. Vollmer went on to cite the cigaret tapper, the one who trails aahes, the one who tries helpfully to empty ash trays in your best decorative waste basket and the one who steps a lighted cigaret out on your best oriental rug.

Other Candidates THE TRAVELING public came in for its share of criticism, especially women who leave untidy washrooms on trains and the overly talkative man or woman on a plane, where you can't get up and walk away. The automobile horn honkers were next on her list. She say they are responsible for more raised blood pressure than any other cause. She trod easily upon the committee woman and her examples caused nodding of heads in the audience. For instance, there is the would, be cooperative one who takes a long telephone list and a handful of tickets, returning both the day before the event with the plea she was too busy.

She mentioned the women w-ho worry about being duly recognized for their work, and the one who is always speaking her mind. Pungent Barbs WHEN CLEVER people want to be insulting it worth quoting, Mrs. Vollmer said. She regards Winston Churchill as a master of the insult de luxe.

On the console table in the hall was a most unusual arrangement of Easter lilies and bleached oak leaves. In a shiny copper teapot on a table in the library was a delightful grouping of fall leaves in copper shades.

In another corner was a modern arrangement of pompons and magnolia leaves. Red roses were in the living room. Panliellenic To Give Benefit Party, Show AFTER TEA Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Bottsford, Mrs.

Fred Harpham and Mrs. Karl Arnstein took part in reminiscing about the club's activities through the years. High spots were the founding in the music room of Stan Hywet a fair that was given at the Stewart place in Hart- ville when one of the concessions was a ride in a blimp. The club has done much to help Akron become more attractive. They are in part responsible for the planting along Tall-madge parkway and at one time erected a Christmas tree in Glendale park and arranged for group caroling.

They also bought defense bonds, helped the unemployed during the depression, have been active in conservation and in general have done much more than arrange a bunch of daisies. But there is one thing I didn't know until yesterday. There is a male member of the club. At one time there were several. Then the club met late in the afternoon so the men could attend.

Now there is but one left, Sherman Grant. Yes, he was there, to make the afternoon complete. jw.s Schlegel of Delta Gamma will go on the board to fill an unexpired term. Among new association members are, Barbara McClelland, alumna of Northwestern, Mrs. J.

BABCOX AM) Among guests at club's WHAT'S Seven Years By MARIO IT TAKES seven years to grow the morsel of seafood known as a scallop.

If this seems like an unusually long time to produce a fair-sized bite of bivalve, it should be pointed out that the scallop you eat is only a part of the meat. It's the muscle, that holds the two shells together all else being Inedible. In cooking scallops there is one constant rule: never cook them for a prolonged period. Two to three minutes for frying or five to eight minutes for simmering in a sauce should be the maximum cooking periods. Like oysters or clams scallops are tender in their raw state.

Cooking only changes their flavor. Too much cooking makes them tough. The liiiior of scallops the water In which they are simmered has a mild seafood flavor which shouldn't he lost. For this reason scallops are often served in a sauce made from this juice. Chefs, in making expensive seafood dishes such as lobster Americaine or seafood New burg, boil scallops to get this extraordinary liquor.

I'se it to rook scallops in a light cream sauce with finely sliced scallions. linked Scallops, South Side WASH ONE POUND of scallops. Jf large sea scallops are used, cut. them into one-inch squares. It is not necessary to cut small hay scallops.
