They should buy only what they can afford and ' can nav for at time. Others claim it is better to buy on the in stallment plan because it gives the buy- 33 er something Dr. Htsrlock to work for and thus is an Incentive to ambition. Within limits, both are right.

However, it does not mean that the more conservative spender will lack ambition. He may want more than he can af ford at the moment, and this stimulates his ambition to work and save to get what he wants. The person who' actually is living beyond his means and buys many things which he can not pay for at the time is con stantly confronted with the fear that something will turn up to make it impossible to pay all he owes. Sickness, loss of job, or some unforeseen emergency can always occur which would interfere with his installment payments. Can Impair Efficiency This fear can impair his effi ciency and interfere with peace of mind and happiness. He then feels that a load is hanging over him and . can drop on him and submerge him at any moment. This is not a . very pleasant thought and certainly does not lead to peace of mind- On the other hand, there is no question that buying on the in stallment plan incites a person to do better and work harder. After all, he has many obliga tions and cannot afford to slack en pace. , ' Because he can live better than he otherwise could afford to, he gets a taste of "better life" and will not want.to give it up. He is backed in this by his whole fam ily, who will also want to con tinue living better and better lives. This will serve as a spur to him to work harder and pro duce more of the things the fam ily feels are essential to their happiness. - LETTERS FROM READERS Blurting: "Is there any cure for a person who blurts out the first thing that pops into her mind and then wishes the ground would open up and swallow her? I am such a person." Disturbed Woman. (A) Of course there is a cure for a "blurter," but the guilty person must apply the cure. She cannot get over the habit by some simple method, such as swallowing a pill. The only real cure for a "blurter" is careful weighing of what she plans to say before she says it. That is especially important in. dealing with personalities. If you stop to think how people will react to what you say before you say it, and consider how you would feel if the same thing were said to you, you will say fewer things you will later regret. Interest in Home: "I am en gaged to a girl I have known for two years. Since our engagement. she has been more interested in our future home than in me. Nat urally, I don't want to take a back seat to a house." Annoyed, (A) Some women are more in terested in their homes and later, in their children, than in their husbands. If you have reason to believe that your fiancee is of this type, you had better think twice before going to the altar with her. Her interest and preoc cupation with the home furnish- Yea may be dangerously taxia year entire system whan you oHow fatigue, nervousness peer appetite ana1 sleep lass nights to drag you down eecavse year body is vitamin and iron starved. cThM iinnPMfM may IMv Mwr camos txtl helps build rick rod blood FAST!

Rear End Crashes Lead Accident Causes Salem U.R) Rear-end colli sions have become the leading type of Oregon accidents, the State Traffic Safety Division has reported. There were 6080 rear-end crashes during the first six six months of 1955, and 5038 of them resulted in property damage. More than 1000 of the rear-end crashes caused injuries and four proved fatal. The figures compiled by the division showed that more rear end crashes happened at non intersection locations than at intersections. Other leading types of acci dents in the first six months of this year included: Turning movements, 6027. Angle col lisions, 3728. Sideswiped-o'ver-taking, 2925. Parking maneuvers 2869. Backing,. 1923. Side-swiped-meeting, 1430. Head-on crashes, 371. Unclassified, 58. ings annoy you now. Think how much more it would annoy you to live with the "perfect house keeper" wife. It is possible, of course, that the home is just a "new toy" and her interest is heightened by the novelty of having a home of her own to decorate as she pleases. Kissing on First Date: So many boys expect to kiss a girl on the first date. Isn't this cheap ening?" Curious. (A) It certainly does not cre ate the impression a girl is hard to get if she lets him kiss her on the first date. It would be far better to play coy and not let the boy kiss her than be too easy. Rebuffing him, on the other hand, would kill her chances for further dates with him.

My bitter campaign No. 98765D is the most discouraging of all my efforts to make this a better and less confused world to' live in. That is the campaign calling for women fo cease using first names intended for men. Take Miss America of 1955. What's her name? Why, it is Lee Meri wether. Lee is a man's name. As for examples, consider Lee Mortimer, Lee Magee, Lee Tracy and many other males. There are at least 25,000 different fem inine first names to choose from, yet Miss Meriwether's folks had to call her Lee.

I am preceding my daily high ball with a toast to somebody who has inspired my admiration or gratitude or both. Tonight I will drink to George Axelrod. Last year he gave us that laugh provoking play titled "The Sev en Year Itch." He has followed it up with the hilarious comedy called "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" In these disturbing times any opportunity to' give out with a few hearty laughs is most welcome. ' Therefore, I feel we owe a debt of gratitude to George Axlerod for his clever contributions to the mirth of a nation. So here's the toast: Here's to you, George Axelrod, May the years your humor - never dim, May you never switch from the play that's gay To the drama that is grim.

The report on minors indus trial employment shows injuries of a serious nature on the in crease with one fatal accident recorded. Approximately one out of every six industrial acci dents to the minors under 18 oc curred in occupations regarded as hazardous under child labor laws. The incidence rate of minors on-the-job injuries in occupations classified as non-hazardous ' for upper age groups was greatest in manufacturing work. Whole sale and retail industries came next in accident occurrence per minor employee, followed by construction. Several accidents were reported at the scene of logging operations where every kind of job is prohibited for minors under 18. Unskilled With Tools Labor Commissioner Norman O. Nilsen states more accident of the working teen-agers were due. to the unskilled use of tools than to mechanical dangers. Six ty-three occupations were listed in the accident accounts. Girls' occupational injuries ran rela tively low in comparison with boys. The boys, comprising 58 per cent of the young work force in industry, met with 88 per cent of the job accidents during the four-month period. Labor investigators found more than one-fourth of the em ployers reporting accidents to minor employees had bypassed child labor regulations in failing to secure work permits for their employment. Oregon statutes hold employers responsible for securing approval of minors' prospective jobs from the Bureau of Labor regardless of the safety of the job. Permits for 10,255 minors' jobs were issued during the quarter year, a rise of 25 per cent over the corresponding pe riod of 1954. Approximately nine-tenths of the permits were for the employment of minors over 16 years of age.

County Planning Commission Setup Outlined for Official's Organization and problems confronting a county planning commission were discussed by Mark Westling, planning and public works consultant of the Oregon bureau of municipal re search; and city and county . of ficials here Friday. , Members of the Medford plan ning commission, city council men, city officials, and the Jack son county court discussed pur poses of a county planning com mission and the .possibility of obtaining federal funds for reg ional planning. Commission First Step Westling pointed out the first step would be to organize a county planning commission, which would develop a basic reg ional planning program and sub mit a request for federal funds through the state board of high er education, which serves as a planning agency in obtaining fed eral funds. Available local funds would be matched with federal aid, Westling said, for an initial one- year project, which could be part of an over-all program ex tending into the future. A county planning commis sion, he said, would serve as an advisory group only. It would make recommendations to the county court, which could take legislative action. The county commission primarily would be concerned with urban areas de veloping adjacent to city limits, Westling said, pointing out that farming areas were not included in the original plan when the County Planning act was passed by the state legislature in 1947. Basic Program One of the chief purposes of a county commission, . Westling said, would be to work out a basic planning program for the area, considering basic maps, trend of growth, development trends, drainage problems, ex isting street patterns in relation to an over-all arterial street de velopment, and p o p u 1 a tion trends. Another purpose of a county commission would be to study character of land and the water table in relation to septic tank use and a desirable size for resi CONDUCT CAMPAIGN Rogue River The Misses Nancy Bradley, Irene Bringmann and Dorothy Boucher, members of the Rogue River High school senior class, are in charge of the classes money raising campaign by selling Christmas cards.

The county group also would study park and rec reation needs and facilities. In planning drainage, natural channels should be preserved, and worked into an over-all street program, if possible, West ling said. '" ' ' City's Role . The city planning commission, he said, would maintain control over subdivision developments within six miles of the city lim its until such time the county court orders regulations govern ing subdivisions. Zoning regulations in the county would be established by residents only, Westling pointed out. Authority for county zon ing regulations would either be by approval in a county-wide vote, or by petition from resi dents who desire zoning in de veloping urban areas. Building codes, which could be ordered by the county court on recommendation of a county planning commission, would function as do present city build ing codes, Westling said. Sewer Construction There is no authority in the County Planning act, Westling said, which ' gives the county power to construct sanitary or storm sewers. He added, how ever, that some acts give the county power to develop an over all sanitary sewer plan, any por tion of "which could organize and Motorola FDRSY for the Newest! and yWy Tuning PM and New DECORATOR COLORS! mmmmw Thrifritst of all Motorola 21 inch TV receivers!

The organizing dis trict would be required to con struct a sanitary sewer according to specifications in the over-all sewer plan. Westling said the basic con cern for a county planning com mission is to get a picture of , what is needed and what can be done. He noted a tendency of planning commissions to carry planning into a long range fi nancial program. A Jackson county planning commission has been discussed here for several years, and an appropriation of $7,500 has been made in the county budget for fiscal year 1955-56 for organiza tion of sucr a commission.
