The AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF FAMILY RELATIONS, 52SJ Sunset Bouievajd, Los Aaseles 27, California. "Jim is a dear about every thing except money. He won't spend a penny without haggling over it. We have more argu ments about money than about all other things put together." Jim has brought from a prov-erty-stricken childhood a fear of financial need. He is overly anxious about money; he feels secure only if he is scrutinizing each dollar as it passes through his hands. He must "put by" a substantial sum from each check for future emergency in the years to come. Jill believes that Jim's thrift is excessive. She wants new clothes, new furni ture, a new car, vacation at the beach. She knows that as Jim's bank account dwindles, he be comes increasingly worried and irrascible. If she is wise., Jill decides that Jim is, by and large, a good husband, that her marriage is happy, and that spending must proceed slowly if peace is to be maintained. Jim appreciates Si.59 to $4.95 ea.

More marital battles are fought on the financial field than in any other area. Some skrimishes are disguises for deeper antagonisms; some are frankly struggles over money as such. Money is such an im portant item in today's civili zation that it becomes an emo tional subject in everyone's life. Social traditions, childhood pat terns, grim necessity, according to Dr. John Levy in "The Happy Family," are all thrown together in the struggle over money. Money matters cannot always be handled rationally. Psychological attitudes toward money are just as real as mopey itself. Successful family budget ing cannot be based merely upon a rigid allocation of funds to rent, food, recreation, savings, and so on. It must also take into account the emotional needs of the whole family. Budgeting must consider fears and aspira tions of the partners, as well as their needs and practical de- i sires. The one who is overly anxious must attempt to see the bent of the one who is eager to spend. Each must compromise and work together toward an ultimate pattern of sound fin ance. Every type of budget, whether liberal or conservative, has its problem and its advant ages. Only by working together can partners approximate a sat isfactory and sound arrangement which will spell happiness for all.

A-.-,. w sat. v m. I 1 Dancer Opens Season For Civic Music By RICHARD D. WERNER Jackson County Civic Music association opened its 1957 sea son by presenting Irene Haw thorne, ballerina and dance stylist, at the High School audi torium last, night. The usual large appreciative membership was there, too. Having been premiere dan seuse of the Metropolitan Opera, choreographer (the one who de signs the steps and movements of a dance) at the Opera Nacional in Mexico City, and star baller ina for a theatre guild Broadway musical. Miss Hawthorne came to us with a full and varied repe toire. Also, she is a good showman. From her between the curtains prologue entrance through to her little speeches, she projected a very engaging personality. This intimate contact helped enor mously in the audience's recep tion of some of her dances, es pecially the ones that most need ed other dancers to complete, such as the Coppelia ballet. The music to this ballet by Leo Delibes is inferior to some of his others and did not gain anything performed on one piano. How ever, the pianist did a com mendable job. Having established the fact that she is a trained ballerina, Miss Hawthorne proceeded to her forte characterization. "Biography of a Dancer" lacked some aspects of communication. This the writer feels is primarily due to the absence of adequate costuming. The fine facial panto mime was lost in the presence of a black leotard. The music for this came from the P. A. system recorded by piano and percus sion instruments, a very clever piece. The best dances of the evening were the Cordova and Carmen numbers. The very difficult castanets were most expertly played by the dancer as were also the finger cymbals. The lat ter properly belong in an oriental dance and no doubt were used by Miss Hawthorne in the ballet in the opera "Aida." Which re minds us that we enjoyed the very expressive use she made of her hands. It was a very entertaining per-1 formance and the audience liked her and she liked them she told them so.

He called the silhouette of his New York grouo the "lyre." Near as this observer could make out, after seeing some 100 costumes from suits to ball gowns, the designer took the curves of the lyre and transplant ed them to fabric. Shoulders were curved, the body rounded, and neckline bar ed in the dressier clothes. The "demi-longeur," or near ankle length, which Dior sprang on the fashion world in Paris last fall was repeated in only one cocktail frock. Same Hemline Daytime hemlines remained the same. Jackets ran the gamut, from snug-fitting cutaway, to bloused - black box. A Dior spokesman Dior was in Paris said the shape of the lyre was evident in the dropped shoulder line, the molded waist, and the soft front folds on the slim skirts. Even Dior capes there were only a few came with curves. The designer gave a rounded look to both capes and coats by soft gathers in the fabric, right under the flat collar. Most of his daytime suits and dress-coats or jacket costumes were cut on slim lines; the skirts of many of his afternoon dresses were full, with unpressed pleating. Dior revived stoles for both daytime and evening. Unlike most of the designers showing spring lines this-week, he gave little attention to chiffon. A few suits had chiffon blouses, and only one cocktail dress a slim, draped number in pale pink came in chiffon. It had matching stole. Only Change Dior's only hemline change: The addition, of fringe to the tiered skirt of a white peau de soie short evening dress, and to i double panel on a red gown in the same stiff silk. Highlights of other collections shown Wednesday: David E. Gottlieb-Gothe bar red both the front and back neckline in several of his cos tumes. This firm also dressed the waistline with high-rising cummerbunds on chiffon cock tail frocks. George Carmel featured bloused backs and belted jacket, in suits and .a deep-sleeved, voluminous coat silhouette he called the butterfly. Davidow, a famous house for suits, borrowed the easy fitting open jackets of the 30's and the ehanel era for spring. Designer Ceil Chapman also turned to the 30's and copied herself. The result is a "cling ing vine" silhouette a smooth flow of bias-cut flat crepe or double-layer chiffon' clinging to the figure like paper on the wall. 4-H Club News Westsid Stitchers Westside Stitchers met Jan. 5, at Mrs. Franek's home on Beall lane, Medfcrd.
