COTUIT SHARES FAME OF
BEING PART OF
JFK'S PLAYGROUND
This reporter was "scooped" when
he wasn't present in Cotuit Harbor
Saturday. President John F. Ken-
nedy and his wife and daughter Jac-
queline and Caroline, were swim-
ming off the "Marlin" near Kirk-
man's point. We don't know how
near we might have gotten, but it
would have been a high point in
our week to have shot even a dis-
tant picture of the First Family.
FEDERATED CHURCH NOTES
Sunday morning in church , the
Rev.Lloyd Schear , our guest minis-
ter, suggested the President be in-
vited to visit our church on next
year's Homecoming Sunday (which
he could do as an individual , not as
a representative of the Catholic
church). Rev. Stephen H. Smith, our
regular minister , and his wife
Evelyn, were invited guests at
JFK's inauguration. (Mrs . Ken-
nedy's sister name, by coincidence ,
happens to be Mrs. Stephen Smith.)
COTUIT—PEACEFUL VILLAGE
Cotuit is almost as famous as
Otis Air Force Base and Hyannis
Port even without runways and a
high fence.
Recently, while working in my
garden on Lake Street , I got the
feeling of being a part of history
as I watched the Marine helicopters
rising out of Otis Base after flying
our President back to the base
after a week at his summer home
in Hyannls Port; from the base he
would return by Jet to Washington.
Last Friday night, on our way to
the base, we were passed by the
motorcade bearing members of his
staff.
We, who are residents of this
peaceful village so near the beauty
and relaxation of the ocean and its
beaches, are perhaps too inclined
to take for granted the peace and
tranquility that must mean so much
to this young man we have entrust-
ed with the helm of our ship of
state.

Of Old Yarmouth
To Meet Aug. 21
Osterville Garden Club held the
second of their two summer meet-
ings in the ballroom of Wianno
Club with Mrs. Alfred Neeves, pres-
ident of the host club , welcoming
the guests to the President's Day
meeting.
Mrs. Walter I. Lyle of Wareham ,
Southeastern District Director of
the Garden Club Federation of
Massachusetts, brought greetings
from the Federation and spoke on
its future plans.
Presidents from neighboring clubs
presented to the group were: Mrs.
Maurice Grinnell, Aptuxet Garden
Club; Mrs. William Knowlton , Gar-
den Club of Hyannis; Mrs. Norman
Everett , West Barnstable Garden
Club who also represented Mrs.
Roger Lyon, president of the Barn-
stable "Grubs"; Mrs. Clifford Bry-
ant, Wareham Garden Club; Mrs.
Everett Allen, Garden Club of
Greater New Bedford; Mrs. Ran-
dolph E. Somers, Brewster Garden
Club and Mrs. Donald Durrell of
Falmouth Garden Club. Mrs. Ralph
Parker , president of the Massachu-
setts Federation, sent her regrets
at being unable to attend.
Mrs. Hollls L. Gray of Belmont
and Marion , guest speaker for the
day, presented an Interesting pro-
gram on "Table Arrangements for
Entertaining," which the members
declared was one of the best pro-
grams on that subject they had
seen
Mrs. Oray, assisted by Mrs. C.
Norman Clifford , a summer resi-
dent of Monument Beach, displayed
nine floral arrangements with table
settings which could be used at
different times of the day. She used
simple and practical accessories in
her displays, some on the inexpen-
sive side and others using beautiful
pieces from her collections of glass
and china.
A rooster-center arrangement of
yellow galardia placed on a green,
brown and yellow plaid cloth with
modern gray china made an at-
tractive table for a morning coffee
session, and, a cool and summery
setting was achieved by the use
of an arrangement of white stock
and asters and blue bachelor but-
tons in a pure white vase surround-
ed by a wreath of white sea shells
placed on a deep blue cloth.
Mrs. Gray used some of her col-
lection of amethyst glass featuring
an cpernge' centerpiece arranged
with pink and lavendar flowers , set
en a turquoise cloth with violets
decorating the china used for this
occasion.
In contrast to this soft , quiet set-
ting, Mrs. Gray created an Oriental
effect by using Oriental-type china
to match the rust-colored linen with
witli a centerpiece of bright day-
lilies accented by a black container.
Some of the points brought out by
Mrs. Gray were that one must not
have too many different patterns
of china, linen and accessories to-
gether in their settings; that a din-
ner table centerpiece should be no
higher than from the elbow to the
fingertip to enable the diners to see
one another across the table; Bow-
ers should be in proportion to the
size of the table and that the whole
centerpiece, Including the flower
arrangement and candles, should be
no longer than one-third the length
of the table.
Mis. Neves announced that the
annual luncheon of the Ostervllle
Club will be held nt East Bay Lodge
Tuesday, Sept. 5, and reservations
must be made with the president
by calling her at GArden 8-8052,
before Aug. 28. Because of limited
space at the Lodge, reservations
are being accepted only from mem-
bers and those on tho club waiting
list.
Mrs. Thomas A. Rockett, hostess
for the Wianno Club meeting,
served cookies and punch following
the meeting and was assisted by
Mines. Frederick P. Coffey, Fred
M. Rowell, Donald S. Church, Sid-
ney C. Boyer, Douglas Gordon, Ed-
warr G. FitzHenry and Mrs. John
Harper.
Family life is too intimate to be
preserved by the spirit of justice.
It can only be sustained by a spirit
of love which goes beyond Justice.
—Reinhold Niebuhr.
