Teacher Lack
To Be Topic
For Pane
" Nine well known southern
Oregon educators and persons in
terested in education will make
up the panel which will speak
on the teacher recruitment
problem at a public meeting of
Epsilon chapter, Delta Kappa
Gamma sorority Thursday, Jan
uary 13. The meeting will be
held at Medford Lincoln school
gymnasium at 8 p.m.
Members of the panel and the
fields they represent will be Les
lie Weigert, Grants Pass High
school; Miss Dorothy Dymock,
Grants Pass, National Education
association; Mrs. Maxine Smith,
Oregon Education association,
Medford High school; Dr. Bill
Sampson, higher education,
Southern Oregon college; Leon
ard Mayfield, administration,

Mrs. Betty Lou Dunlop, Ameri
can Assoc. of University Women,
. Southern Oregon college; Mrs.
Alice Willits, Delta Kappa Gam
ma, Briscoe school, Ashland;
Mrs. Merle Woodward, Grants
Pass, moderator.
It is" pointed out that a recruit
ment program is necessary be
cause in 1957 three children will
be in school for every two in
school in 1947. A 50 per cent
increase calls for a comparable
increase in the number of tea
chers, but instead there is an
enormous lack of qualified tea
chers. Some of the questions to be
asked and discussed at the meet
ing Thursday will be why do
we have a teacher shortage,
what are the sources of recruit
ment, and what are the factors
that make teaching attractive.
Committee members in charge
. of arrangements and refresh
; ments are Mrs. Mildred Rogers,
chairman; Mrs. Una B. Inch,
Mrs. Blanche Canode, Mrs. Mar
jorie Butler, Mrs. Mary Schu

Br ELIZABETH TOOMET

New York (U.R) The "long

Spring and summer clothes are

Meeting of Unit -In
Butte Falls r
Butte Falls Mrs. John Fui
ten was hostess for the last meet
ing of Butte Falls Home Exten
sion unit. Three guests were wel
comed, these being Mrs. Brit
tain H.; Ash, wife -of the new
United States Forest service
ranger for -the Butte Falls dist
rict, Mrs. Floyd Mattern and'
Mrs. Daniel McKeen.
The project leaders, Mrs. Al
bert Hofmann and Mrs. - Ray
Trefren, showed local homemak
ers how to clean wood furniture
and also how to obliterate milky
spots, scratches, burns and
checks on furniture. The women
learned how to use rottenstone,
ammonia, pumice, rubbing oil
and potassium permanganate to
brighten her furniture.
Each one present received a
bulletin from the extension of
fice on "touchups for Wood
Furniture."
Mrs. Harry Dalton explained
the meaning and scope of the in
ternational women's organiza
tion known as "Associated Coun
try Women of the World." She
also conducted a discussion of
what local women want on the
extension program for next
year. Butte Falls women asked
for better methods of freezing
and canning foods and more
practice in home sewing.
The next meeting of the Butte
Falls unit will be at the home of
Mrs. Clyde Moore February 3.
Miss Eula Wintermote will pre
sent the subject, "Good Weight
for Good Health."
inating a belt at the waistline.
; "American women want to be
comfortable' the designer ex
plained. The "belted basque" is used
in dresses with a gentle flare
to the -skirts. A horizontal seam
several inches below the waist
gives the impression of a long
torso line, yet narrow self-fabric
belts are worn at the waist.
Slim suits with longer jackets
also carry out . the long-torso
theme for spring. Even when the
jacket comes off, a soft over
blouse, often made of a print to
match the jacket lining, replac
es the old tucked-in blouse for
a longer look.
Designer Pauline Trigere is
one who is leading the way to
extra feminine appeal in clothes
for daytime as well as evening.
She calls it "The Dainty Look.'
" Miss Trigere has made day
time wool dresses for spring in
pale grey and golden beige prim
med with white. She shows a
beige wool dress edged at neck
and sleeves with 'white, for in
stance, with a white leather belt
and a white hat.
Another Trigere daytime dress
is a soft green print wool with
a white chiffon . stole. The
French-bom designer uses the
pale colors in unusual after-five
costumes too. - - - - -
She has made a fingertip
length wool coat in camel color
to wear belter over a white lor-
ganza short evening dress. The
dress is made with a full skirt
that begins at a hipline seam
typical of many of the long
lined party dresses for spring.

Twelve Nations Top Americans
In Dairy Products Use, Says OSC
Vitamin-conscious Americans
who are applauding Premier
Mendes-France's current cam
paign to . get Frenchmen to
drink less wine and more milk
might better be sitting on their
hands or taking inventory . of
their own milk bottles.
By latest .count, the French
are ahead of Americans indi
vidually, in annual use of dairy
products Oregon State college re
ports. In 1953 France's per capita
use of milk and milk products
was 703 . pounds compared to
682 for the U.S.
France isn't alone in edging
the U.S. out at the dairy bar. El
even other nations lead this
country in per capita use of milk
products. Ireland and New Zeal
and head the list with 1382 and
1349 pounds respectively.
Among 15 nations reported by
the USDA foreign agricultural
service only the Netherlands and
Italy trailed the U.S. in use of
milk or its equivalent in dairy
products. They had good rea
sons. An Italian must work for
20 minutes . to earn enough to
buy a quart of milk, 109 minutes
for a pound of cheese, and 162
minutes for a pound of butter.
The exchange : rate between la
bor and dairy foods is almost
that high in the Netherlands. -
In sharp contrast, a working
man in the United States can
earn the price of a quart of milk
in only, 8 minutes, a pound of
cheese in 22 minutes, and . a
pound of butter in 30 minutes.
Oregon fares better than the rest
of the nation. It takes an Oregon
working man less than 6 min
utes to earn a quart of Grade A
milk. '
Sweden, - Norway, New Zeal
and and Switzerland are the
heavy milk users with the' aver
age Swede drinking 240 quarts
a year. Jn" eighth place is the
average "American who drinks
164; quarts.'.. '
Ireland heads Europe in per
capita use of butter. . Even
though it takes an Irishman 83
minutes work - to buy , a pound
of butter, he uses 40 pounds a
year compared to U.S. average
consumption of 8.6 pounds The
Frenchman eats almost twice as
much butter as the American
and it takes him 135 minutes
work to buy a pound of it. -
The ' United States is ; 10th
among' cheese eaters 7 pounds
per person a year. The Swiss
and Norwegians lead with be
tween 17 and 18 pounds per
person.
; Only in use of canned and
dried milk does the U. S. rate
toward the top. It is second to
Canada in use of canned milk
and fourth in use of dry milk,
behind Canada, Netherlands and
the United Kingdom.
