Mrs. Updike Presents Talk on Roses To Oakenwold Garden Club Members The Oakenwold Garden held its recent meeting at the home of Mrs. S. M. Painter of Orchard Road.

Noting that June is "National Rose Month" in recognition of America's favorite, Mrs. Painter introduced Mrs. C. O. Updike of Bedford, a national rose judge and president of the Rose Society of Bedford, who spoke on Mrs.

Updike stated that roses came from Asia Minor and have been cultivated for more than 5,000 years. The Pharoahs grew roses in Egypt around 300 BC and Egypt became the rose center of the world and shiploads were transported to Rome. Christian legend, noted Mrs. Updike, says the rose was brought to Europe by the Crusaders and the rosary, a wreath of roses for prayers and praises to the Virgin Mary. were brought by the Catholics as symbols of the church.

In the history of this country, George Washington was the first rose breeder. "We express love, sympathy, respect and thanks with the rose," said Mrs. Updike. Four hundred million cut roses are sold each year by florists, she continued, and roses also have been used in forms of cooking, medicine and perfume. The speaker concluded by saying that roses should never be placed in the wind and should be placed in water up to the neck with an inch up.

They also should be refrigerated from 12-24 hours before arranging. Mrs. Painter, president, conducted the business session and opened with the club collect. Various committee reports were given. Mrs.

Families Planning to Buy New Homes Should Begin Cutting Costs BLACKSBURG Families who are thinking of buying a new house within the next few years can begin now to cut costs, advise home management specialists. Miss Hilda Dailey, a Virginia Tech assistant professor of management, housing and family development in the Reading is an Activity an Activity A Lovelier You WHY SKIN EXPERTS GO GRAY By Mary Sue Miller While most Lovelies tan, dermatologists go gray. Just the thought of the damage girls are doing their skins i is enough to unsettle the experts.

Constant exposure foretells premature drying, wrinkling and aging. A burn does damage to the skin that triggers alarming difficulties. Tan fans beware: Take care! Always limit exposures and wear a protective suntan product whenever exposed, directly or indirectly. What you use depends on the quality of your tanning whether you redden quickly or slowly, whether you are sunsensitive and to what degree. If you begin to pink up after 15 minutes in the sun, look for products with a sun-screen factor.

A few of these are tinted to keep you from looking like a paleface in the early stages. For those who can safely take longer exposures, there are "fast" tanners that hasten bronzine results. Sun blocs work for the sensitive skin in combination with very careful timing. Pharmaceutical formulas prevent anyone forbidden to tan, or not wishing to, from coloring up. In the categories you find creams, lotions, oils, gels and foams packaged for easy toting and handling.

Here your preference dictates your choice. If your skin is dry, look for the inclusion of moisturizers. Whatever you pick, use it early and often.

"Most people plan for such items as kitchen appliances, laundry equipment and furniture.

But, likely to be overlooked are such items as carpeting, draperies and curtains, yard tools, shrubs, trees, grass seed, fertilizer and outdoor furniture. "Taken as a whole, the value of the forgotten items could amount to 10 per cent of the value of the house," she noted. "How the items are purchased could make a big difference in their ultimate costs," commented Miss Dailey, an extension specialist in home management. Miss Dailey indicated that most of the items can be purchased on credit at the time they are needed. "But there is a less expensive way to handle them," she said.

"Cash, of course, is the least expensive way. Credit can add anywhere from 10 to 30 per cent to the costs of the items. "Start now," Miss urged, "to put a few extra dollars each payday into a savings account. Be ready to pay cash for the things needed in the new home. Interest earned by the savings account will mean more money to spend rather than less as when the items are purchased on credit." The extension specialist noted, "Another choice of how to finance the purchase of needed materials and items is to include them in the home loan.

"But, consider their costs," she cautioned. "Suppose, for example, $1000 is needed to pay for kitchen appliances. Is it cheaper to make a separate short -term installment loan or to borrow an additional $1000 on the long-term home loan?" The home loan method could be inviting because of its to 8 per cent interest rate as opposed to the true annual interest rate on installment purchases which often are from 12 to 30 per cent. "The installment choice could involve a $50 monthly payment for two years. In dollars, the installment plan costs about $100.

The home loan costs would be almost $500," explained the extension homemaker. "It also would be wise to STAUNTON FABRIC CENTER OPEN TONIGHT TILL 9:00 across from Johnson St. Parking Lot.

Barbara Pilon, assistant professor of education at Indiana-Purdue University, Indianapolis. "Kids love to be read to long past the primary grades," she continues. "I read to students in my college classes almost every week and they love it. "Learning is a joyful process. Little children are so anxious to start school.

"Then they can't wait to drop out because so many teachers, perhaps mindlessly, are helping children to fail. We've got to get in there and fight. An awful lot of children's lives are at stake." For Dr. Pilon, getting in there to fight meant switching from being an elementary schoolteacher and language arts consultant to university teaching. "In a classroom I reached 30 children a year.

At IPI I've taught 500 teachers who have at least 15,000 pupils in their classrooms. If only a few of those teachers have listened to me!

"One easy way is to lead children in singing cumulative songs as, 'I know an Old Woman who Swallowed a or 'The House that Jack having the children chime in on the chorus. "Communication is a two-way street. If parents and teachers don't listen to children, the children are likely to return the favor.
