"I have a chance to return to
the job I had belore marriage,"
says Jean. "I'd like to work, and
goodness knows, we can use the
extra money. But can I work
and still be a good wife and
mother?'1
"Can career girls hold a job
and do right by the family at the
same time?" asks Ruth. 'T want
to use my training, but I don't
want to wreck my marriage."
Can working wives make a go
of marriage?
According to the American
Institute of Family Relations,
under the direction of Dr. Paul
Popenoe, the answer is yes. Yes,
if and this is a necessary pro
vision if the husband under
stands and cooperates. The new
pattern of marriage-and-job can
be a boon to a family, with the
proper cooperation between
partners.

ter, with a growing-up family
and more expensive and expan
sive tastes, the time may be ripe
for her to return to her pre-marital
profession or her work in
store and office.
Many women feel, frankly, a
bit stale on years of domestic
routine. Many feel a drive to re
turn to their professions in or
der to express themselves and
contribute to the world's work.
Others prefer working with peo
ple rather than waiting in an
empty house for children and
husband to return from their
day in the outside world. And,
of course, some need and want
extra money.
An outside job works well
with these folk if both spouses
agree upon its limitations, liabil
ities and restrictions. Adjust
ments are necessary, but need
not jeopardize a good marriage.
Mother's job may well strength
en the bonds of together-ness in
a family, making of the group a
cooperative unit which both
works and plays together suc
cessfully. Cracked Egg Sales
Studied by Expert;
Economy Is Factor
Ithaca, N. Y.-(U.R) Cracked
eggs at prices 10 to 15 cents less
than grade "A" large eggs sell
well, according to a study made
by a Cornell university market
ing specialist, Erman Moore.
Moore spent 18 months study
ing the situation. He and his as
sociates coined the trade name
"Econ-o-crax" and used economy
as the main selling point. The
eggs were put in a special pulp-
board carton that protected the
eggs from further damage and
prevented leakage. The eggs
were offered for sale in a large
suprmarkethere.
Moore found that egg sales
jumped six per cent in the first
year, and the broken eggs ac
counted for more than one
fourth of all the sales.
Moore then made a postal card
survey.
"Price was the most important
reason for buying the eggs," he
said. "And about 70 per cent said
they bought cracked eggs in
place of other eggs."
Tests were made in other
stores in New York state and
the results were similar.
"About three-fourths of the
buyers say they used cracked
eggs for all purposes," he ex
plained. "The others used the
eggs for special purposes."

Relaxed Voice
Sneech Exoerts
i . i
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Pratt Correspondent
New York fU.R) A wom
an's voice is as important to her
fortune as her face in this elec
tronic age.
Even bathing beauties rarely
are seen without being heard in
contemporary beauty contests.
Yet many a streamlined beauty
ruins her chances even for social
success by a rough-edged voice.
Vocal coaches say we could do
something about it. Barring phy
sical obstructions, any woman
can have a pleasing voice, they
claim, if she'll just spend a little
time on it.
"Women spend so much time
grooming ther nails," sighed Ari
stide d'Angelo, a speech author
ity who has taught scores of now
famous actors and actresses in
his 25 years at the American Ac
ademy of Dramatic Arts. "But
because the voice cannot be seen
they feel it isn't part of their phy
sical makeup, so they don't think
about grooming it."
"In the old days," said Mar
ian Rich, a vocal coach who of
ten trains young television per
formers, "the high, bell -like
voice was quite stylish. It went
with the vapors and breath-taking
corsets. But now women
should have lower, more relaxed
voices."
A New Kind
Television has brought an en
tirely new kind of female per
former into prominence t h e
wholesome, nice looking young
woman who can look at home
selling sponsors' products in a
kitchen and who talks in a pleas
ing yet straightforward manner.
Her voice is more typical of the
ideal the average woman could
strive for than any other kind of
television, stage or screen
speech.
"It is a matter of breathing
deeply and relaxing your
throat," Julia Meade, one of the
highest paid saleswomen on tel
evision, said. "I notice that many
women seem to be pushing their
voices out of their throats. It
makes them sound high and nas
al." To keep from sounding affect
ed, Miss Meade concentrates
closely on the sense of what she
is saying, a rule which the two
speech authorities agreed was ex
cellent for everyday speech.
Most of us are inclined to
think that because we have had

Important
Declare
no speech training we are speak
ing in our natural voice. Like it
or not, we'll say, it's our natural
voice and we're stuck with it.
That is exactly wrong, d'An
gelo and Miss Rich agree. "The
natural voice is what you learn
to use, the one which indicates
your personality," Miss Rich
said. "The tall, earthy girl who
talks in a Peter Pan voice is not
using her natural voice."
(The first two rules for im
provement are good breathing
and a relaxed throat, the two ex
perts agreed.
"Women are by their very na
ture more nervous than men,"
d'Angelo said. "When you are
frightened, angry or tense you
get a tightness in your throat
and it affects your voice. When
we say a woman's voice is attrac
tive we usually mean it has res
onance. To have it, she must
have coordination between
breathing and relaxing of the
throat."
"It's never too young to be
gin, since the fewer bad habits
a girl learns from her parents
the easier it will be to develop
pearl-shaped tones.
"My mother used to say, "Now
just lower your voice, calm down
and tell me again," Miss Meade
laughed. "So I never had any
terrible problem to overcome."
