    Women Increase
Life Insurance
To 65 Billions
New York The women of
America begin this year with
the greatest amount of life in-!
surance protection they have '
ever had.
Indications are that women
own some 65 billion dollars,
(billions, not millions) of life
insurance, and that when the
final figure is available, if
may actually be higher, ac
cording to the Institute of Life
insurance.
This is no sudden increase.
Women have been adding
steadily to their life insur
ance, which, incidentally,
comes to about 15 per cent of
all life insurance. The effect of
women's ownership, as far as
their families are concerned,
has been to add considerably
to family protection at all
stages of life.

Parents, Students Discuss Code
Of Conduct for Junior High Age
McLoughlin Junior High
school students and their par
ents discussed a student code
of conduct at a meeting of
McLoughlin Parent - Teacher
association Thursday night,
and then voted to make a
further study in an effort to
find a code acceptable to both
students and parents. A capa
city group attended the meet
ing, held at the school, and
the response was enthusiastic,
the PTA reported.
Dating and what age to be
gin, time to be home on
schools nights, on week ends,
going steady and its implica
tions, parties at home, parent
responsibility, allowances and
use of the telephone were all
discussed. Students and par-

ents agreed on many points,
it was reported.
The Seventh, Eighth and
Ninth grades were each rep
resented by a parent and a
student on the panel Repre
senting the Seventh grade
were Mrs. Fred Simcox and
Michael Gline; Eighth grade,
Mrs. LeRoy Jensen and Carl
Washburn; Ninth grade, Rob
ert Rix and Jackie White.
Mrs. Naomi Van Dyke was
the teacher representative and
the Rev. Haddon Robinson
was moderator for the panel.
The program was introduced
by Mrs. Roy Elgram, unit
vice-president.
Background Given
In giving background for
the 'Code of Conduct," the
Rev. Mr. Robinson explained
that a conduct code for the
teen-age isn't something new,
but has been talked about and
tried for several years. It has
had considerable success in
a number of eastern cities and
more recently in San Francis
co; a similar code is being
studied by Oregon students
and parents-teachers associa
tions at this time. It was noted
that a code of conduct was
discussed by more then 300
delegates from Oregon high
schools at a governor's youth
Conference last November;
since that time Salem High
school youth were the first
to set up a code in Oregon.
., The parents and students
arrived at close agreement in
most areas of discussion. Dat
ing and going steady were
recognized to be a fashion or
fad in this age group because
it seemed important for both
boys and girls to conform to
what they believed other
young people their age or
group were doing. Parents felt
Seventh and Eighth children
too young for single dating
and said group parties and
activities under adult super
vision more acceptable.
Discourage Going Steady
Going steady was discour
aged for all junior high teens.
Groups and double dating
were .considered best for
Ninth graders. The fad of go
ing steady was summed up by
the Ninth grade representa
tive this way, "You just
weren't in style unless you
were going steady, whether
you liked him or not." The
Seventh and Eighth grade rep
resentatives said that going
steady to them doesn't mean
what parents think it does.
For instance, "you give a girl
you like a chain or bracelet
to let her know you like her
and in two or three days she
gives it back to you. Thats
how long we go steady."
Time In Discussed
Time to return home if stu
dents go out school nights was
9:30 p.m., and week-ends the
time was 11:30 or later by pre
arrangement only. Getting
plenty of rest was said to be
the real problem at this age,
and this becomes an indiv
idual problem. The Eighth
grade representative said
"Sometime I stay up later
than that doing homework
and book reports; I get more
rest when I go out."
On allowances the student
representatives were in agre
ement that they didn't ap
prove of receiving an allow
ance from their parents with
out having earned it through
fulfilling obligations. Some
parents were of the opin
ion thaj giving allowances is
not facing the world with
realism. Parents are supposed
to prepare the child for adult

hood and parenthood, it was
said, and who is going to hand
out money to them later?
Proper preparation for life
includes a realistic concept of
money, the parent stated.
Home parties were necour
aged by the parents. The stu
dents said that for a good
party the parents should show
interest and co-operation and
welcome their children's
friends to their home. The
students all said that parents
should chaperone all home
parties, but let the students
plan them.
Telephone Time
Parents put a limit of 10
minutes on student telephone
calls, and thought it poor
taste to monopolize the tele
phone. Students agreed.
Preceding the meeting, the
Mothersinger entertained the
group with three numbers.
The chorus is directed by Mrs.
LeRoy Jansen and accompani
ed by Mrs. H. Chandler Drew.
Mrs. Jensen invited interest
ed parents to join the group

Chemise Style Dominates
California Fashion Shows
Three Medford women from
two of the local ladies' ready-to-wear
shops returned last
week from Los Angeles where
they attended the showings
of the spring and summer
fashions. Traveling south for
the showings were Mrs. Jean
Hart of her store at 617 East
Main street, and Mrs. Nunya
Lizberg and Mrs. Marjorie
Green, both of Burelson's
Ladies Ready-to-Wear, Main
and Bartlett streets.
The chemise was definitely
a large part of the showings,
they reported, with the style
in all price ranges and in a
wide variety of colors and
fabrics.
The women think that the
chemise is a refreshing
change for women's fashions,
and reported that modified
versions of the chemise are
found to be very comfortable
and cool, since they have no
belt.
The new chemise was shown
for daytime, casual, and after
five wear, they reported, and
the colors ranged from the
bright yellows, orange, and
tangerines to the more basic
blues, greens, and black.
White and pastels, especially
coral, are also popular colors
for sports and daytime wear.
The local buyers comment
ed on the wide variety of new
fabrics which "fool the eye."
They mentioned that at times
it was necessary to consult
the label to discover whether
the frock was made of cotton
or silk. Majority of the fab
rics are washable and carry
the "dripu-dry" recommenda
tion instead of ironing.
They added that the styles
are definitely shorter.
Those women who do not
feel they should wear the new
chemise need not worry, the
Medford buyers explained,
since many of the other styles
including sheaths and dresses
with fuller skirts were also
included in the showings.
Still popular are the jacket
dresses, summer suits, and
sweater dresses. Many of
these were shown in linen and
silk while others were team
ed with the ever popular
short jacket.
Accessories found printed
shoes and handbags to match
or in the solid colors includ
ing white. The dress foot
wear shown dictates that mi
lady will wear lower heels this
spring and summer with the
pointed toe continuing this
year. Ropes of jewelry break
the simpler lines of the chem
ise, they reported, and these
may be had in a variety of
colors and imitation gems.
