with other people."
Several rules for success were
outlined by the speaker. He said
one should give praise where it
is warranted, indicate that the
endeavors of the other person
are worthwile, give others a
chance to be successful in their
endeavors, cultivate the habit of
calling others by a name which
pleases them, remember -that it
is not ' what we say but how
we say it," remember always to
be courteous, to cultivate enthu

vor of others, remember to seek
the advice of others and to share
confidences with them when
ever possible.

iHomemakers Use
Versatile Pears
For Many Dishes
Juicy, creamy-fleshed pears i
are favorites with most home-
makers because of their versa
tility. Everyone knows a ripe,
juicy pear makes mighty fine
eating. But there are lots of
other delicious ways to serve
pears. Try using them in salads,
desserts, pies, and hot breads
such as a breakfast coffee cake.
A tempting, easy way to serve
pears for dessert is on a dessert
cheese tray. Pears and Blue j
cheese go together like "ham 'n I
eggs." They are perfect flavor
mates. Simply arrange fresh
pears and crisp crackers on your
prettiest tray, and place a wedge
of creamy Blue cheese in the
center.' Or, if you prefer the
milder Blue cheese flavor, make
this simple dip: Combine soften
ed cream cheese with about 1'3
the amount of Blue cheese and
season with salt, paprika and
lemon juic. Whip until fluffy
and smooth.
Another easy pear dessert
utilizing Oregon filberts, as well
as Oregon pears, is pear filbert
torte. This is especially good
served warm with either cream,
whipped cream or ice cream.
Spicy pear coffee cake is a per
fect breakfast hot bread-i-easy
to make and good to eat!
For Pear Filbert Torte to
serve six persons use 1 egg, 34
cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, 1
teaspoon baking powder, one
fourth teaspoon salt, 2 large ripe
pears, V4 cup chopped filberts
and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Beat egg and sugar together
until very light. Mix flour, bak
ing powder and salt and stir into
the egg-sugar mixture. Peel
pears and cut into large diced
pieces. Combine with batter. Add
filberts and vanilla. Bake in a
buttered 8-inch square pan at
350 degrees for 35 minutes.
Serve warm or chilled with
cream, whipped cream or ice
cream.
For spicy Pear Coffee Cake
use 2 ripe pears, 2 tablespoons
butter, li cup brown sugar, 2
teaspoons grated lemon rind, 2
teaspoons grated orange rind, z
teaspoon ginger; for batter, 2
cups biscuit mix, cup sugar,
1 egg, beaten and 23 cup milk.

Americans Now
Shaping Shapes
Says Executive
By WILLIAM EWALD
United Press Correspondent
New York IU.R) Well, it's
come to this now America is
not only shaping future events
throughout the world, it s aiso
shaping shapes.
"It's really amazing what is
happening to women's figures
outside this country," said Elo
ise English today in a properly
amazed voice. "They're going
through a transformation be
cause of our influence."
"The aim everywhere I've
visited seems to be what we've
come to think of as the American
standard - tallness, slimness, a
clean attractive appearance."
MissEnglish. who is built along
pretty clean lines herself, is cur
rently co-shepherding a Satur
day radio talk show with Galen
Drake over CBS. She also dou
bles as exective vice-president of
a chain of salons which special
ize in trimming women down.
In her role as an excutive.
Miss English travels about 100,
000 miles a year, setting up re
ducing salons for roly-polies in
such cities as Paris, Rome, Zur
ich and Brussels.
Hip Problem
"There is a hip problem in
France," said Miss English, "In
fact, I might call it a fabulous
one. You know, they go in for
small waists they put some
thing called waist cinchers on
babies to keep 'em small. So it
isn't too unusual to see a woman
with a 21-inch waist and 39-inch
hips.
"The German woman, on the
other hand, has almost no shape
at all. She's stocky, large and is
built in more or less of a straight
line."
Miss English mulled over the
German shape with obivious des
pair and then launched bravely
into the Italian girl.
"Bosom conscious. They're just
too bosom conscious in Italy."
said Miss English. "The whole
thing is really getting out of
proportion to the point of im
propriety. Now Hear This
"In general, the Italian woman
has the worst shape in Europe.
And as vou go farther and far
ther south in the country, they
get more and more sloppy."
Miss English's keen eye gives
the Belgian woman slightly
better marks "small - rjonea.
more rounded than the French
women" along with the Swiss
"quite beauty conscious in the
cities." The English girls fare
less well.
"Very healthy girls, but no
flair, no sense of style," she said.
However, said Miss English,
everywhere there are signs that
diets, exercise and reducing aids
are beginning to intrigue gals
everywhere.
"You know, throughout many
areas of the world, men don't
care how fat or sloppy their
wives got as long as they could
continue work. But the influence
of the American woman is chang
ing all that.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE
Mosaic-Making Comes Back In Sleepy Italian Village
Ravenna ;u.R) Nine men
in this sleepy little Italian town
are reviving the art that first
carried Ravenna's fame to the
far corners of the world in cen
turies long past.
It is the finest of fine arts
mosaic-making returning to
life in the town that has the most
precious Byzantine mosaics this
side of the Bosphorus.
Art critics throughout western
Europe have been unanimous in
praising the nine-man "group of
mosaic-makers," sponsored by
the Ravenna superintendent of
monuments. Prof. Giuseppe Bo
vini for its flawless reproduc
tions of Ravenna's unque ancient
mosaics.
Museums and private art-lovers
buy them up as soon as they
are ready, and thousands of for
eign tourists come specially to
Ravenna to see the originals af
ter viewing an exhibition of the
copies that have been traveling
through Europe for the past five
years.
How It's Done
The group, an offshoot of the
30-year old Ravenna Mosaic
school, was set up after the war
to restore damaged mosaics in
Ravenna's churches After com
pleting the restoration work they
started making reproductions of
the ancient masterpieces and pro
ducing mosaics from designs of
modern painters.
The- nine men are using tiny
colored bits of stone (tesserae) .
in 5,000 different shades. They
follow a technique unparalled in
modern times, applyina the tes
serae directly on a layer of plas
ter that forms the backbone of
the mosaic. The method used by
other mosaic-makers is to ar
range the tesserae upside down
on a flat surface which is then
overturned on the plaster.
The Ravenna system allows
the artist to visualize his work
as it proceeds and to tear off j
and re-do any imperfect part. I
Critics say it results in greater
liveliness and "vibrations of j
colors."
Helpful to Scholars I
Among works sold to foreign
museums or private collectors ;
was a copy of the famed mosaic (
of Empress Theodora in the Bas-!
ilica of San Vitale, purchased
by the art museum of Zurich.
Art critics agreed the mosaic
reproductions were the only
thing that could convey an ade
quate idea of the originals. No
color photograph can ever render
the fantastic glittering of the
thousands of tiny slabs on the
walls and apses of Ravenna's
churches. They are the more val
uable to scholars because they
permit them a close look at de
tails that are hard to see in the
originals because they are plac
ed too high or in dark corners.
But the tourists who came
here after seeing the show found
Old - fashioned pound cake
baked in a turban mold is all the
more festive if you coat the but
tered mold with sliced or ground
almonds before you add the bat
ter. Serve with canned cling
peach halves marinated in des
sert wine.

the mosaic copies could not con
vey. There was the magic of

unreal soft light filtering into
the Mausoleum of Galla Placid
ia through the transparent ala

of wandering through the streets
of what looks like a peaceful
big village rather than a town,
