TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) Fashion Trends Told at Shows Bf GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York W Will the fashion designers re-shape us women come fall? Will hem lines go down, prices go up? Will waistlines be waspish or wide . . . necklines coy or dar ing? Just turn to your newspapers next week, dear reader, for the answers. For the details of what tomt of the leading domestic fashion schemes have in mind for us females will be a thoroughly told story starting next week, related by wire services such as United Press and by women's and fashion editors of your news papers. Report Upcoming Some reporters already have toured the multi-million dollar garment industry of New York but generally will wait until after the Fourth of July week end to start their reports from this, the nation's clothing man ufacturing center. New York makes 65 per cent of the wo men's wear, 55 per cent of all the nation's apparel, industry sources said. But the greatest concentration of lady reporters arrives Sun day 200 of them from St. Petersburg, Fla., to Ottawa, Can ada; from Portland, Maine, to San Francisco; from Hawaii to Norway. They'll be In town from the semi-annual shows staged by the Couture group of the New York Bress Institute. The Couture arue consists of 33 designers i bt the coats, dress and suit field, its' us a batch of auxiliary manu facturers of everything from aaillinery to make-up. The group started this semi aaoiual series in July 1943 . . . and seven of the original 50 to attend that first "press week" have survived the rigors of 28 iore. And I do mean survived. It is fun to see all the fancy new fixins, and to tell you about them. But it isn't all play and no work. Looking at next week's schedule of events, the gals will be lucky to find time to pow der their noses. Even 'Battle' Casualties In seven days, they will re port to you in 60 fashion col . lections from Christian Dior to Mollie Parnis, who is Mamie Eisenhower's favorite designer. Many of us won't be able to afford some of the clothes we read about, but these will show the trends which will repre sent all price lines for fall and winter.

Notebooks lost . . . but usually returned because a thoughtful cab driver overheard a conversation between a group of girls, knew why they were in town and where they were staying. One year a newspaper woman from the South broke her leg before the shows began. -She covered the events on crutches. Another, who complained of poorly lighted hotel rooms for working at a typewriter, brought her own light bulbs. The biggest damage is to a girl's waistline. The week calls for fashion shows at breakfasts, lunches, and dinners as well as in between times. But the dress institute said it is now trying to "police" the menus "so there won't be creamed chicken ev ery day." Society Saturday Square Dance at Camp White Building Square dancing will start at 8:30 p.m. Saturday at a refurn ished building at Camp White with D. E. (Doug) Fosbury call ing.

Getting along with the boss is a prune MUST in holding a job, whether it is that of clerk in a shoe store or college pro fessor. And getting along with the boss means more than laugh ing at his jokes, turning out a thorough job. or praising his golf scores. It means believing in him as a director of your work and accepting him as such, both inwardly and outwardly. It means gearing your efforts to his, so that together you pre sent a working team which moves in the same direction, at the same time. Bucking the boss loses time, effort, and patience on both sides of the desk. Bosses, no matter how remote in their in ner offices, sense hostility or an tagonism in the employee ranks. An honest attempt at harmony and cooperation on, both sides pays off in increased production and good will. Here at the American Insti tute of Family Relations in Los Angeles, we advise clients who are having job trouble or "boss difficulties" to 1. Cooperate by accepting and respecting your boss's authority insofar as you are able. Don't challenge and question his de cisions. His overall picture of the work is apt to be more com prehensive than yours. 2. Be businesslike. Don't mix personalities or personal prob lems with your business rela tionship. Follow your boss's lead in formality or informality. 3. Remember that your boss is human. Allow for the fact that he makes mistakes, has prejudices, and pet peeves as you yourself have. 4. Let him in on the facts. Give him information promptly. Don't try to do things on which he wishes to be informed, on the Q.T. 5. Try to please him, but do not be obvious about it. Don't fawn or try to ingratiate your self with him at others' expense. 6. Watch your timing. Try to consult him when he is most likely to be available and will ing to listen. 7. Do your work well. Remem ber that your efforts help him, and that in turn his success will help you. HER FEELING Springfield.

W A faulty skyrocket backfired into a truck loaded with a ton of fire works Thursday nrght and touched off a violent explosion that rocked Silver City. , About 10,000 persons, on hand for the annual Fourth of July display, saw the spectacular acci dent.

He only cares about his parents. Nick T She's got me with my back against the wall. Patricia T. I have just left my husband after a marriage of ten years. I had to be mighty fed up to do such a thing con sidering we have four young sters. I just can't fake my husband's attachment to his family. Every thing is for them. He worries constantly about their health. He'll get up in the middle of the night to go to their home if he hears that one of them hasn't been well. If I don't feel well, it's nothing. My husband has taken over his father's business and works like a dog in it. He gives his parents more than $200 a month out of the business. For this they do absolutely nothing. He says they are not well enough to work. That's a lot of hokum. I want Nick to get out of that business and get a job for him self. Let the old folks do as they please about the business. Nick T. I do worry about my parents, but I can't help it, con sidering my father has had two heart attacks. I got up in the middle of .the night to see him. exactly once, when I had good cause to worry. Pat has never forgiven me. She has never been seriously ill, so I don't see why I am supposed to worry about her health. As for "giving" my parents money out of the business, that's ridiculous. It's they who have given me a means of making a far better living than I could at a' job. The business is theirs, but I'll inherit it. I haven't the cash to buy a business like that. USE WOOLWORTH'S Convenient LAT-AWAY PLAN if m Wfil!!Jlli I'm just giving them a barely decent income from their own investment. Pat has me with my back against the wall now. I can't af ford to keep her and the kids in a separate household. She says she won't come home unless I give up the business. TUm Council? Pat Viae not finlv nlareri Nick with his "back against the wall," she has put herseil ana ner cnnaren in mat position. Her unreasonable jeal ousy of Nick's feeling for his parents can only result in a broken home and considerably curtailed income for herself and her children. Nirlc is nerfectlv rinht that he owes his parents an income out of the business thev have turned over to him. This is obvious to anyone not blinded by emotion as Pat is. Nick's worry about his par ents' health may be a little ex ressive. but in view of the cir cumstances it would get under standing and sympathy from any Hpvntprl wifrv Pat should get over the idea that she has any grievance at all. She makes a very poor case for herself. She and Nick should Don't Say "Hello" Say "FILTER-FLO" if'..,'' u u ti e See Them! Love Them! SAVE On Them! Store Hours: recognize, however, that she ,1s not quite as well as they both think. Her hysteria in breaking up a home on such flimsy pretext indicates physical or emotional illness of some sort. She should see a doctor. If he can find noth ing wrong, she should consult with a clergyman or social work er attached to a family agency. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.) Charlton, Mass.
