Sami Valley Extension
Announce! Workshop
Sams Valley Members of the
Sams Valley Extension unit
wishing to make lampshades are
to meet Monday, April 10 at 7:30
p.m. promptly at the school
house, the chairman has an
nounced. 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
