All queries will receive Individual attention and should be accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed envelope, directed to MARY HARRIS StIFERT, M. A.. Department of Educa tion. The AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF FAMILY RELATIONS, 27 Sunset Boulevard. Los Angeles 27. California, Pertonal Trait ; Which . Ruin Marriage In the past quarter ceniury, thousands of people have bright their marital difficul ties to Dr. Paul Popenoe, well known biologist, counselor, au thor, and director of the Ameri can Institute of Family Rela tions. Frequently their prob lems were rooted in personality traits which masqueraded as sex incompatibility, in-law trou bles, financial disagreements, or religious differences. Counseling revealed repeatedly that many problems lay not in the reasons the couples gave, but rather in feelings and attitudes which hid deep within and of which the individuals often were not con scious. . '. ' ' " ; Dr. Roswell Johnson, director of the Department of Counsel ing, former president of the American Eugenic society; and author of "Looking Toward Mar riage," suggests that some half dozen qualities are responsible for the 'majority of marital break-ups. (1) . Selfishness; -,.The couple who ask ot'their every relation ship, "What do I get out of it?" are the ones -who . are often most surprised when selfishness kills their marriage. Love can not live with egocentricity. (2) Hostility and lack of sym pathy: Couples sometimes sup press their feelings to conceal hostility. - Suppressed hostility, coupled, with, lack of sympathy, may indeed be' dynamite! . (3) Suspicion: A marriage, rid den by suspicion or continuous questioning reveals lack of unity and is headed, sooner or later, for open difficulty. Love can not flourish under habitual doubt, i no ' matter, , how ... well hidden.'' ' i .-." -... ...'i. (4) InTaTlibility: Theman or woman who is always "right," who is unable to shoulder blame or responsibility, is the one whose marriage may be love less barren.

(5) Stinginess: Egocentricity, the core of stinginess, is small degree to every personality, but in exaggerated amount, it can wreck a relationship. Subcon sciously the miser of material possessions may become the miser of love. He wants the most, but is willing to give the least: no marriage can flourish in such an atmosphere. (6) Impetuousness: The impa tient person, who rushes head long where angels fear to tread, may be a romantic lover but a wasljput as a marriage partner. A good marriage demands sta bility, thought, and patience. Year's Activities Drawing , to Close For Youth Counc i I ...

SP 2-4830 High Fashion Houses Closing By BARBARA MILLER United Press Correspondent Paris U.R The closing of the Jacques Fath dressmaking establishment once the second largest in France brings the death toll of big-name fashion houses in Paris to an even dozen since the end of World War II. Even the most optimistic cou turiers are' wondering how long they will last. But all are confident that Par is will continue as the fashion center of the world. Dressmaker Pierre Cardin, 32, recently nominated by Christian Dior as most - likely-to-succeed, sees the future this way: "In five years', the haute cou ture industry will become an ex perimental laboratory for the ready-to-wear manufacturers." Cardin also predicted that only 5 of the present top 10 de signers will survive the interven ing years. , Lab" for Dior Fashion -dictator Dior, himself has gone so far as to say that the "haute couture" has already be come a "lab," although private customers account for some 60 per cent of his business. But he says he nets only $30 on a custom-made dress even though the. client paid $400. The difference goes for taxes, overhead, and hours of handsew ing on his creations. Dior esti mates that one machine serves 30 seamstresses in his work rooms. The couture industry's semi annual sales to wholesale manu facturers and store buyers bring in most of the revenue. Both leave large deposits or "caution money" before even catching a glimpse of a new line. They pay anywhere from $500 to $3,500 for their purchases. .The most famous houses also depend for revenue on foreign sales of everything from per fume and stockings to ties and corsets. ; Only Pierre Balmain has been able to remain "above" such dealings. He has the largest private clientele in Paris, and counts actresses Vivian Leigh and Marlene Dietrich among his faithful customers. Despite the disparity in profit between private and wholesale purchases, the ; fashion world hates to see the end of the cus tom order clientele whose dimin ishing incomes no longer can afford such high-priced ward robes. Haute couture dates to the days of Queen Marie Antoinette. Famous designers before World War II included Moly neux, Lelong, Schiaparelli, Cha nel, Piguet and Patou, who ca tered almost exclusively to in dividual customers. Each high society matron had her favorite designer, whose "look" was as obvious as if it were a label worn outside. But today's big-name design ers, all promote a somewhat simi lar ."look" an economic ne cessity dictated by the whole sale buyers but mourned by the couturiers themselves. "All these big gold-and-white salons will disappear and rela tively simple shops will take their place," Cardin predicted. "Today's dressmaker has to spend a fortune on upkeep and personnel to fill his enormous establishment. With private cus tomers fading out of the picture, the trimmings will no longer be necessary." This season, successful new comer Guy Laroche suited his actions to these words by hang ing cheap mattress ticking cur tains in the windows of his small narrow shop. ; WARD WEEK ENDS Monday SATURDAY ONLY 9:30 to 5 Sort 3.10 on 27.98 kit 2488 Contain all the tools and materia! you need to tile in the standard 5-ft. recessed bathtub area.

As the mothers arrived one of the Scouts measured their waists and each one paid a penny for each inch of her waist meas ure. The friendship fund pro vides an exchange program to bring Rangers and Senior Girl Scouts from all over the world to live, for a while, in the United States; and United States Senior Scouts have the same chance to live for a time in other coun tries. The exchange of camp counselors and trainers between countries has also become an important ' activity of the fund. Not too" long ago the Rogue Val ley" "area had as exchange coun selor, Miss Trinidad Sales, "of the Philippines. ""-"- -' Mrs. J. F. Fliegel, guest speak er, talked on.
