The original markers of the Mason-Dixon line were of oolite limestone, made in England. She bad planned her "company dinner" so carefully, she thought. ..and then the en free was a miserable failure! Why? Because she bought a substitute instead of insisting Pn VBITE SIZV TUNA- She's learning the truth of the line, "There's no half-way quality in tuna"! It's either delicate, tender, and delicious ... or it isn't ! That's why millions of house wives buy nothing but the tuna that has been famous for qual ity for more than 30 years!

Survey Shows Women Purchasing Smaller Percentage of Goods Miami. Fla. U.R) A survev by seven universities would sug gest that "mom" is losing her grip on the nation's purse. The survey did not uphold the old contention that women do 80 per cent of the buying in the United States. Actually, she buys only 55 per cent of all consumer goods for the family and exerts influence on only 57 per cent of the family purchases. The figures were compiled by University of Miami, Alabama Nebraska. Illinois. New York Pittsburgh and W a s h i n g ton State. Other results and conclusions Men buy 30 per cent of the family s consumer goods. Hus bands and wives together 11 per cent, and the children, four per cent. - The shorter work week prob ably is responsible for the jump in male purchases during the last 10 years- The fact that more wives have jobs outside the home also influence tne percentages. Men buy 80 per cent of gaso line and oil, 75 per cent of their own clothing, two-thirds of the automobiles, one-third of the electrical appliances, one-fourth of the jewelry, and one-fifth of the groceries. Husband and wife jointly buy 55 per cent of the furniture but women have something to say about 62 per cent of furniture r v 1 Thursday, April 8, 1950 Benno Rabinof and hit wife.
