"Forty is the end of everything worth while in life." "I'd rather be dead," says the fading glamor girl, "than middle-aged." Here at the American Insti tute of Family Relations in Los Angeles we hear these remarks repeatedly. People, especially women, fear grow ing old, fear- even the ap proach to age, and try to avoid it, as long as possible. They regard age as an evil, a fate which all must meet, a blank wall which marks the end of everything worthwhile in life, love, marriage, and happiness. But in reality the opposite may be actually the case. Aft er forty, many women enjoy better health than ever be fore, more leisure to pursue hobbies and develop talents, less heavy responsibility with families grown. For many, life in its fullest often begins after forty. There's no need to be fat and frumpy because you're forty," advises Alma K. Reck in Life 'Today.' "If you are overweight, invest in bath room scales and a caloric chart. See your doctor about a diet. Investigate special size shops to find dresses with the smart details of misses' sizes designed for your figure. Per fect grooming and care in choosing accessories will pay dividends in compliments."

Your uncertainties and youthful jealousies are gone." ing, shopping for bargains planning meals. You have learned efficiency and preci sion and now you can profit from your experience.

New Suits Become Costumes By GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor New York (TO The. suit, basic of our wardrobes, hard ly looks its- old aelf for spring 1958. It's more of a costume, with all the parts assembled, so there is little need for us women to shop for a blouse to "go with." Blouses "come with." Designers this season do more coordinating of cos tume than I've seen in 10 years of fashion coverage. Favorite outfit with almost every firm previewing spring collections this week for the visiting press is the slim skirt, topped wiht the short loosely fitted jacket lined with a silk floral print. The same print is repeated in the blouse, usually fitted over the skirt instead of tucked in, Typical example comes from Ben Reig, a long-time leader in the suit field. One of his group of suits which leave nothing to chance,1 as he said, is in a pale or platinum beige wool. The short, free-swinging jacket is lined, and faced at the col lar, with the same print used in a beige sleeveless over- blouse. ' Maurice Rentner, another top suit designer, showr whole group of costumes in which blouse and jacket lin ings match. Rentner and Reig are among the designer-manu facturing firms participating in the semiannual shows spon sored by the couture group of the New York Institute Rentner, Reig and Ben Zuckerman all show a variety of jacket lengths. Some are brief boleros; others have only a slight curve inward at the waist, but nip in to fit the upper hipbone. Still others are classic iri cut. showing the waistline. Jack ets come with and without belts, and usually the belts are narrow, almost shoestring width. Most suits feature such ease of fit across the back from armhole to waistline that a spokesman for Rentner decided "no female will get claustrophobia this spring.' Rentner is among the de signers who gently bloused some jackets; his are gather ed to a two-inch band of the fabric, which does fit the lower waistline. Coat shapes run the gamut from straight and narrow to those with sweeping lines, Designers also have cut loose with extravagant fabrics, col ors and trim. Originals for instance, featured a light weight grey tweed dusted with tiny rhinestones, which seemed to be part of the fabric itself.

Guild Month Is Observed By Local Units The three Wesleyan Service guilds of First Methodist church are celebrating na tional guild month through out January according to Mrs. C. R. Adamson. Medford. Loregon conference secretary Special programs will fea ture the history of this organ ization, from its inception m Chicago in 1923, when a small group of employed women met together form Christian fellowship and study of the work of the Church, "from that small beginning, the euild has grown to be a great service organization with more than 500 units witn members all over the United States and many in foreign countries," Mrs. Adamson states. "The great increase in the number of employed women in America has developed a need for Christian fellowship and an opportunity for serv ice and study in church-con nected groups which meet in the evening and on week ends, when working women can take part. The current national drive is bringing large numbers of new mem bers; in Oregon alone, four new units have been organized in the past few months and several more are in the plan ning stage." Miss Cora Mason, Ashland, was the first guild secretary for Oregon, and did much of the ground work for the or ganization in this area. Later, the late Mrs. Beulah Faber served as Oregon conference secretary for four years, go- ins on to become Secretary of .the west e r n jurisdiction, which office she held at the time of her death. Mrs. Ad amson is the present con ference secretary, and Mrs. L. A. White is associate sec retary of the Eugene district, which includes the southern half of Oregon. Local unit presidents are Miss Annette Gray, president, Ruth Esther unit; Mrs. Ger ald Sherman, president, Su sannah Wesley unit; Mrs. A. C James, president, Gladamson unit. All employed women are welcome to attend any of the guild meetings and may obtain meeting dates from the church office. LAUNDRY TIP Have you modernized your washday techniques by using cold water to launder mod ern fabrics? Then remember not to wear them too long between washings. The cold water prevents setting wrink les into man-made fibers, but does not efficiently remove deep-set soil.
