your First National checking
account to vour savings account.
Automatically. You'll never
miss the money. Hardly even
realize you’re saving it. Until,
of course, you look at your
savings account. It’s a pleasant
surprise. And completely painless!

When you dial interstate

operator assistance, you
can almost always save.
2. (aH at the times when

Interstate Long Distance

late at night. Savings
can be big.

Pcrson-to-pcrson calls
arc far more expensive than
station-to-station calls—
especially dial-direct station
calls. In some cases,
you can get more than two
dial-direct calls for the
price of one pcrson-to-

PGE Customers Report:
is the prime consideration.
In both centers there is
order. The rooms are cheer
ful in decor and divided into
centers of activity where
various types of material;
belong and where they are
used.
T h ere is su p e r v is io n .
Friendly adults circulate
among the centers to show
the way to constructive play
and “to play with” the chil­
dren.
Yet there is freedom. The
children choose what they
will do and how they will do
it so long as their methods
are not disruptive or de­
structive. Disagreements are
settled calmly, gently, and
firmly.
The children who attend
PCC’s child development cen
ters are the children of PCC
students and staff members
with limited income.
Fees
are on a sliding scale ac
cording to income.
The teachers, aside from
the instructors, are second
year PCC students in the
Early Childhood Education
program, who are working
for associate degrees, and
who have completed one
year of study and observa
tion.

College provides
child care centers
With more and more
mothers going off to jobs
outside the home, the role of
the child care center is be­
coming increasingly impor
tant, and Portland Com
munity College is aware of
the needs for people trained
to work with young children.
Model child development
centers have been established
at PCC’s Sylvania and Cas­
cade centers.
They differ
from one another in a t­
mosphere and in physical
aspect: Cascade shelters the
children in the homelike
surroundings of a roomy old
house, filled with stimulating
materials and flanked by a
yard full of apparatus for
active play. Sylvania offers
spacious rooms in a modern
college building with outdoor
play space in a mall area.
Cascade is licensed by the
state to accommodate 30
children on a full-day care
basis.
(PCC limits enroll­
ment to 24 to avoid crowd­
ing.) Sylvania is licensed for
36 children on full-day care.
A separate "drop-in” nursery
is licensed for 12 children at
a time.
The objective of the two
centers, however, are alike.

A. Begin to test for doneness
an hour before the end of the
suggested time. Use these 3
tests: 1. Check the roast meat
thermometer inserted in the
center of the thigh next to the
body, not touching bone. The
thigh temperature should be
180 to 185’ F. 2. Protect fin­
gers with paper; press thigh
and drumstick. Meat should
feel soft. 3. Prick skin of thigh.

The children were real cooperative
Tim kept bugging Terry to turn off
the lights
Armed with a batch of fluorescent
"Turn Off the Light stickers and the
PGE Watt Watchers Guide. Mr and Mrs
Don Schmeiser began a test period
to see if they could really save watts
and dollars
They turned down their heating from
72° to 68° and found it comfortable
They cut down on TV watching and
remembered especially to turn it off
when they left the room They cut the
use of major appliances Mrs
Schmeiser even began drying her
clothes outside again on nice days
And of course, the kids helped by
reminding each other to turn off the
electricity when it wasn t being used.
The results'? The Schmeisers not only
cut their electric usage by 30 7%, but also
found a guaranteed formula for saving
watts in the future.
"I believe the things we've done are
what every family can do. and be able
to see the results right away'
And see the results, they did'
The Stavers are successful and
conscientious watt watchers
The first thing they did was turn
down their water heater 10° Next Mrs
Staver began a quick n easy collection
of no-bake cookie recipes to try out
on her two young children (Dad loved
them, too!) She also put a three
second time limit on the refrigerator
door being open
Besides using less hot water at bath
time and air drying their washed
clothes, the Stavers also insulated the
heating pipes under the house
But the thing I feel made the most
difference" Mrs Staver revealed, is
not turning on the hot water during the
day You d be surprised how little you
really need"
If people don t start saving electricity
now they re liable to be without
it later on
The McCaffertys know how important
saving electricity is When you ve
got a two-level, six-bedroom house and
three teenagers, you know you ve got
your work cut out for you
So while Mrs McCafferty cut down
on the oven, dishwasher, washer and
dryer use the rest of the family helped
out by limiting their use of
conveniences
They eliminated the use of the air
conditioner entirely No radios were
left on There was no TV watching
before 6 30 p m They took short
showers instead of baths (' saves about
half the hot water")
We even had a general rule in force
where a person would be fined a dime
for leaving the lights on in the room!"
"I don't want to lose my electricity
this winter. Mrs McCafferty concluded
"Everybody s going to have to help tp
make watt watching work
Join the PGE Watt Watchers above
Your voluntary help now may help
head-off enforced curtailment later
during this critical period Here s why:
every kilowatt-hour of electricity you
use means either some water must
be released from reservoirs behind a
dam. or some thermal fuel burned to
generate that power The long-term
solution is the building of new
generating plants, transmissipn lines
and other badly needed electrical
facilities without imprudent delay

Pacific Northwest in urging customers
to save energy now to help avoid
enforced rationing in the months
ahead
