Lititz Historical Foundation
Decorative Stenciling Subject
Of Talk In Lititz Sunday
Grand Opening Saturday at New Location
Gifts of Distinction• » »
Stencling is not the best
known of the early American
arts and crafts, but Marjorie
Yoder believes it is one of the
most useful in modern home
decoration.
Mrs. Yoder will give a
lecture and demonsti ation
on stenciling this Sunday
afternoon, June 6, in
Fellowship Hall of the
Moravian Church in Lititz at
2 p.m. The program, open to
the general public, will be
the second in a series of
trad itio n a l American
decorative arts presented b\
the Lititz Historical Foun­dation.
Interest in these arts has
revived dramaticall> in
recent years as homemakers
discovered in them a
fascinating way to add
novelty and beauty to
modern interiors.
Marjorie Yoder, who holds
a masters degree in
American Folk Culture from
the State University of New
York, has lectured and
taught classes at Landis
Valley and other leading
museums. Her theorem
paintings on velvet and her
fanciful grainings on wood
have been exhibited in art
shows in many states.
In her presentation in
Lititz on Sunday she will
exhibit the tools and
m a te ria ls needed for
stenciling on walls, floors,
furniture, fabrics, and tin. It
will be a how-to-do-it
demonstration that anybody
can follow and almost
everybody can copy and use
in their own home.
Mrs. Yoder is thoroughly
familiar with the decorative of Harold E. Yoder,
tastes and requirements of executive director of the
this area. She lives in Historical Society of Berks
Morgantown and is the wife County. The Touchmark of The Pewter Mug

The wrappers are off and
the bright display windows
are tastefully and temp­tingly
filled with shim­mering
glass and crystal,
glowing pewter and oc­casional
plush fuzzy animals
that appeal to all ages and
pique the imagination.
This bright new look on
Main Street, this fashionable
glass fronted shop that
seems to glisten from the
light colored wood panels
and well lighted displays
within, is the new home of
The Fewter Mug, where
June and Ralph Smith offer
merchandise of distinction to
fit all pocketbooks.
The Pewter Mug, like a
cup that runneth-over,
outgrew its old Sturgis Lane
Location, and moved around
the corner to 49 East Main
Street to the bright spacious
surroundings designed
especially to show off the
special selections available.
The Smiths together
chorused the main reason
for the round-the-corner
move, “We simply outgrew
our old location! Our
basement was full... the
g a r a g e ...u n d e r th e
eaves...we were carrying
things back and forth from
home! We needed space,”
they emphasized.
And space they have for
easy browsing and ap­preciation
of the mer­chandise
in the shop.
Gracious alcoves present
selections from imported
carved Polish boxes, hand­made
bread dough flowers
intricately arranged, to
lamps by Nelson Lebo, and a
new line of Austrian table
linens.
The alcove idea was the
inspiration of Ralph Smith
who designed the interior
layout for the shop, and with
the help of his brother Gary
and Lester Shenk, made it
work. Browsers and buyers
alike can move gently from
one miniature but spacious
“department” to another
