Teachers were in the rooms to meet the parents and discuss the children's problems.

Down - Pay Only $2.59 Per COUEY'S APPLIANCE STORE In Friday, November 18, 1933 health associations throughout the country, according to Mrs. M. O. Grove, chairman of the 1955 Christmas seal sale of the Jackson County Public Health association. For 49 years Americans have been using Christmas seals to symbolize their contributions to ward the eradication of tubercu losis. Their aim has been a fu ture for their children free from the tragedies they have seen caused by the disease. Miss Simpson designed for this year's seal sale, which opened November 16, two companion seals, one showing a little boy against the blue of a winter sky, the other a little girl against an apple green background. Carry ing packages in their hands, they convey the happy mood of Christ mas giving. The red double barred cross trademark of the National Tuberculosis associa tion, stands behind them as a promise of protection. Miss Simpson is one of the youngest artists whose designs have been chosen for Christmas seals, Mrs. Grove said, and only the fourth woman designer since Emily Bissell created the first American Christmas seal in 1907. Proceeds from this year's sale in Jackson county will continue support of the two permanent X-ray centers, as well as to sup port education and research to ward eradicating what is termed a "completely unnecessary dis ease," Mrs. Grove said. Inasmuch as we know what causes it and how to prevent it, tuberculosis can be wiped out, she declared.

The committee cited her long teaching experience in the field, the fact that a number of her students have won national awards and recognition, her con tribution to her profession in ex ecutive positions as well as in the writing of articles for edu cational publications, as salient reasons for advancing her name for the office. 4 : To Attend Church Medford Bethel 14, Order of Job's Daughters, has planned go-to-church Sunday for November 19.

A visiting British columnist goes hame and writes that New York City made her feel dowdy because the women "wear clothes with an air." So how does a plain ordinary girl move into this rarefied at mosphere? Can she acquire "an air" or is it something you are born into? Also, what is "an air" any way and is it something that is possessed more often by women in New York City than, lefs say, in Spearfish, S.D. Three people who are, in sep arate ways, close observers of women gave their opinions aft er hearing the above questions.

Into it goes a combination of self con fidence, grooming, proper clothes and good posture. Neith er the year of a woman's birth or the price of her dress is of great importance. Look Twice "I cannot give you an exact definition of what it means when a girl walks into our of fices with that 'air' that makes you look twice," said Jerry Ford, the husband half of the Ford model agency proprietors. But if the best looking eirl in the world doesn't think she is good looking, she won't have it. SO in OUr business 'an air' ic a reference really to personality to a feeling of self import ance. They help girls acquire it all the time, Ford said. First they work on instilling self confi dence, then they -develop the outward manifestations good posture, a composed facial ex pression and meticulous groom ing. More New York City women claim a share of this special air, another expert observer said, for two obvious reasons. Competitive City "In the first place they have everything here to choose from in the way of clothes and groom ing aids," Mrs. Fredericka Fels, a buyer of moderate-priced clothes in the Bonwit Teller store, said. "And secondly, this is the most competitive city in the world. Career girls have to look well because of their jobs and women who stay home are conscious of competing with these career girls. "New York City women are very conscious of their defects," she concluded, " and they know what kind of clothes will do the Plan Party Builders' class of Eastwood Baptist church will hold a social meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Parrish at 8 o'clock tonight.
