Behavior of Women
At Sales Explained
Cleveland, O. (U.R) The
strange behavior of women at a
department store sale is per
fectly logical after all.
So reports Mrs. Virginia Miles,
a psychologist with the McCann
Erickson advertising agency.
Mrs. Miles says women will
reach into a neatly piled stack
of merchandise and take some
thing from the bottom "because
the top one might be shopworn
or she wants to feel she's making
her own choice."

OEA Board
Asks Increase
In Salaries
Increases from S300 to $500
above regular increments in all
Oregon teachers' salaries for
1956-57 were called for by the
board of trustees of the Oregon
Education association in an offi
cial action at a recent meeting
held on the Oregon College of
Education campus at Monmouth.
Concern over the increasing
number of educators leaving Ore
gon for better pair positions in
other states was one of three ma
jor reasons given by the 15
member board for its recommen:
dation to school districts. The
other two included the critical
need to attract into the teaching
profession a larger percentage of
well-qualified high school and
college graduates and the alarm
ing number of educators who are
leaving the profession for mark
edly improved salaries in busi
ness and industry.
The board gave special recog
nition in its action to the fact
that generally public school ad
ministrators' salaries have not
kept pace with other salaries in
education. "OEA salary studies
indicate a narrowing margin be
tween administrative and other
salaries in the profession," said
OEA President Antonia Crater of
Newberg, spokesman for the
group. "Also the increased pres
sures of administering a modern
school program have brought an
ever increasing mortality among
experienced administrative per
sonnel in Oregon," Mrs. Crater
concluded.
Unanimous approval of ; the
group was given a motion by Su
perintendent Robert Sabin of Co
burg in reference to Senate Joint
Resolution No. 4 as approved by
the 1955 Oregon State Legisla
ture. Sabin's motion called for a
recommendation to the OEA Rep
resentative Council, OEA policy
making body, to hold a full-scale
debate of this measure. He em
phasized that SJR No. 4 should
be given serious consideration
because it would allow the leg
islature to attach the emergency
clause to tax measures, thus as
suring enactment of such pro
grams for a two-year period be
fore referendum could be af
fected. Sabin explained that
"OEA must consider this mea
sure as a means of assisting the
legislature to find vitally needed
additional revenues for Oregon's
public schools."
Mrs. Maxine Smith, Medford
teacher and president of the De
partment of Classroom Teachers
of OEA, attended the meeting in
an unofficial capacity.
Later Mrs. Smith flew to Den
ver, Colo., for a meeting of the
classroom department presidents
of the 11 western states. This

Plant Sprouts Used
To Teach City Kids
East Lansing, Mich. (U.R)
A child expert at Michigan State
university suggest a simple way
of acquainting urban children
with the knowledge of the sim
ple facts of plant growth.
To make plant growth more
understandable to children, Mrs.
Erna Fishaut suggested planting
seeds in a container where the
youngsters can watch the
growth process. She said chil
dren in University nursing school
have been fascinated by watch
ing ordinary lentils sprout in
moistened cotton.
In the home, an ordinary alum
inium, foil plate can be used on
which to spread the damp cot
ton. About three days after the len
tils are placed on the cotton, she
said they will begin to sprout.
This " simple procedure helps
children see at first hand how
plants begin their growth.

muda shorts in broadcloth are
color - coordinated to striped
sleeves and socks. The high-rise
striped socks insure that when
winter sets in there'll be no cold
feet.
Plaids Are Terrific
What's the fashion huddle all
about? Cotton plaids, of course,
in authentic Scotch tartans and
modern stylized patterns. Foi
living the life of McTavish,
quilted plaid pedal pushers are
teamed with a dark broadcloth
skirt to make a lounger or study
outfit. For day and dates, a
princess jumper in quilted plaid
can be converted to after-five
wear when worn without its own
blouse.
Scotch plaids are among the
season's smartest raincoats. A
new version of the trench coat
in jade green broadcloth buttons
high at the neck for weather
protection, and has a Black
Watch plaid lining.
A raincoat that shows 'its
plaid is made in bright colored
water-repellent broadcloth with
a middy-type collar in plaid. The
lining is also plaid. There's a
matching umbrella and hat.
Jumper Popularity
There's greater variety, this
year in jumper styling with inter
est centered around new neck
lines and a choice of skirts
either wide, slim or with a long
torso line. Many of the jumpers
are designed to be worn alone,
or with blouses.
the suspender jumper with a
sleek princess fit is office-perfect
in blackened-brown cotton
tweed. A dark paisley blouse
with push-up sleeves gives it
daytime versatility.
Winter-warm quilted cottons
in plaids and prints are featured
in a variety of styles.
For flashing around campus,
the popular cotton car coat has
a snug winter feeling. Some are
styled in pastel cotton poplin
with a convertible hood and
blouse in gaily printed cotton.
Cotton quilting looks just as
pretty after dark in separates.
For a dance at the fraternity
house, a quilted printed camisole
is shown with a full skirt.
Career-Bound Cottons
Coming up in the world is
the srnart career or college
fashion that teams corduroy and
cotton prints together. The fall's
long lean look is seen in a three
piece ensemble that combines
these two cottons handsomely.
The style of the year features a
"skeet" jacket, copied from a
hunter's design with straight up-and-down
pockets and a slim
overblouse look. The skirt is
pencil-slim and the blouse is in
the same cotton print as the
lining.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SUM
Xonscience Fund'
Of U.S. Treasury
Earns $1,895,258
Washington (U.R) A $5,
000 donation to the government,
forwarded recently from Ridge-,
wood, N.J., without any accom
panying explanation, caused no
surprise at the U. S. Treasury.
The department has been hap
pily accepting contribution1 since
1811.
All cash received in thit man
ner is entered in the treasury's
"conscience fund" and, just as
other government revenue, is
considered expendable. At last
count, total contributions to the
fund more than 50,000 of them
amounted to $1,895,258.
So regular are "conscience
fund" contributions, about one a
week, that estimates for them ap
pear in the federal budget $75,-
000 in this year's budget
The fund derives its names
from the fact that many of its
contributors are moved to action
by troubled consciences such
as the ex-GI from Alabama who
sent $5 to cover the cost of a
baseball glove he failed to return
to the Army, or the California
woman who sent the treasury
$50 because she thought her hus
band had been less than accurate
in filing their income tax return.
Some contributors send not a
word of explanation with their
donations. In most cases, donors
prefer to remain anonymous.
The usual contribution 'Gang
es from $5 to $10 and comes
anonymous from a small tcrvn.
The smallest contribution, two
cents, came from a little girl
who confessed she had misused
a two-cent stamp. An anonymous
person, apparently the possessor
of an extremely sensitive con
science, forwarded $30,Opo in
1916 without explanation.
A large contribution occasion
ally touches off a government
investigation. Following up on a
$5,000 gift several years ago,
treasury men found their man.
a conscience-stricken taxpayer
who, it was learned, was actually
entitled to an $11,000 tax refund.
A Biblical quotation, "Blessed
are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God," accompanied a
$2 contribution by an Indiana
man some time back. And a Brit
ish clergyman forwarded $14,
000 for an unidentified church
member who could not live with
a conscience that continually re-'
minded him cf his past as a smug
gler. . : , ;
