Business Opportunity Knocks For Women of Creative Skill By GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York (1PI Business op portunity still knocks for the woman nimble with the thimble or creative in the culinary arts.. It also is there for the women with other home-making skill or an unusual idea for a business service, reports the New York State Department of Commerce. The department runs a unique counseling program for women who wish to turn their house hold skills into income, but aren't sure how to go about same. Its women's division was set up in 1945, originally to aid women returning from war jobs. Hobbies Expanded In the 12 years, its files have grown thick with success stor ies such as the woman whose knack with doll costumes even tually was turned to design of children's clothes and a success ful business. Or, the woman whose garden hobby was ex panded and now includes a herb farm, with greenhouse, highway salesroom, and a booming mail order business. Now, the department has ex panded its program with publi cation of a handbook called "Your Ideas Makes Cents and Dollars Too," available national ly as its mailing budget will al low. "It if not at easy now as it was in 1945 to start a business at home," said Miss Barbara Yuncker, assistant deputy com missioner."

Eyed Monster John brings home a corsage of roses for Jane and sweeps her off her feet with a resounding kiss. "Let's go out for dinner, Honey," he suggests in a sudden impulse of good-will. "I'll treat you to the best steak in town and a double dessert!" Jane hurries into her newest dress, and they are off for an evening of good food and soft music. But Jane cannot enjoy her double dessert. All evening she watches John with a ques tion in her eyes. What has he done to make him treat her, to a restaurant dinner? What is he hiding? Why the roses? Don't guilty hus bands always soften up their wives with flowers? Could it be something amiss about his job? Has he had a fight with the boss and been canned? Or could there be a woman in the picture? Roses must mean something! John spends the , evening be wildered at Jane's coolness and vaguely uncomfortable under her questioning stare. Maybe he has been a fool to bring flowers for Jane kid stuff, she'd say and to suggest they eat out, when money is so scarce. John is suddenly tired, conscious of a chill between them, too weary to try to explain or understand his growing unhappiness. People who are habitually suspicious of others' motives, who are, forever looking behind motives, questioning sincerity, are unable to achieve genuine happiness in any relationship. They must be constantly reas sured that all is well with their world. Their demands are end less and reassurances often mean little to them. Suspicion may weaken a mar riage more completely than physical violence. Unity is not possible where there is doubt, and the twin monsters of sus picion and jealousy go hand in also are numerous women who sell everything . from ; pickles .to plum puddings. But she warned the food field is highly competi tive, and is regulated by fed eral, state and local health au thorities.

If the feelings are there, the couple will sense them and no amount of reassurance will help, if the emotions persist. Imagination is a fickle and tricky thing. Suspicion, based on imagination and uncorrobor ated by facts, is deadly. Only by becoming conscious of this tendency toward doubt, and by treating it with the aid of an experienced counselor in ad vanced cases, can a suspicion ridden marriage be saved. Con fidence, the opposite of suspi cion, can be gained by evaluating oneself and one's attitudes honestly and then practicing trust wherever possible.
