ICamp Fire Girl
from Albion,
Mich.
'There are
plenty of us
! who do not get
into trouble,1
Gay Pauley said Sue Mat
thews. "And some of us who
try to be a constructive part
of the community. But the
reputation of the delinquents
rubs off on us a little, in the
minds of a lot of people.'
So, as she suggests, here is
the portrait of one "good'
teen eger pretty Sue Mat
tha herself.

Fire groups in Albion. And
she is the only girl ever to

arship when she enters De

like ft career in the Foreign
Servic overseas, she said.
"But I'd also like to get
marriei ftnfl raise a family,"
she fail. "I haven't figured
out yt ow I can combine the
two ambitions."

standing" program sponsored
by the Michigan Council of
Churches. She lived with Mr.
ando Mrs. Paul Kaiser and

Cologne, Germany.
" "I think teen agers every

said Sue. "Bvft in 'Germany,
they start dating later than
we dp. In Albion, some of the
kids are going steady in grade
school. I'e gone steady off
and on fince I was about 15.
But right now I'm not, and I
believe I'm having more fun.
Some girls go steady just to
make sure they'll have a date
on Saturday night."
Sue came to New York for
the organization's "Youth in
Community Affairs" confer
ence, attended by boys and
; girls from every state.
Interests Meeds Stimulation
"I think young people are
interested in things goingon
t in ttieir community," she said.
"But the interest needs stimu
lation, both from the parents
. and the kids themselves."
Special Meeting
Planned by Tent
ft. special meeting of Elta
.Deuel Hubbs tent, Daughters
.of Union Veterans, will be
held" Thursday. May 8, at the
"home of Mrs. Elmer Gott, 542
; South Ivy street, at 10 ajn.
Business will include dis
cussion of favors for the de
: partment convention, com
memoration of Mothers' day
and a session of past presi
' dents of the tent. The presi
dent asks members to bring
. a picture of their mother and
a poem or other material
about mothers for roll call.

be prepared to sew for Camp
White. A covered dish lunch
eon will be served at noon.

flag, staff, harness and stan
dard were presented to the
tent by a committee.
Next regular meeting of
the group will be May 13 at
Jackson County courthouse.
Scrambled Eggs
Chicken broth, tomato
juice or orange juice may be
used in place of water or
milk in scrambled eggs.
Cubed avocado, sauteed mush
rooms, slivered tongue, chive
cottage cheese, crumbled
crisp bacon, pieces of aspara
gus, chopped oysters, shrimp
or lobster are just a few of
the ingredients that will add
interest to this everyday
dish. Remember to turn the

stealing cars. Not the killings
like in New York."
She helped organize the
,Youth Advisory council,
which has the backing of the
city's government and con
sists of such youth groups as
Camp Fire, Scouts and the
"Y's." plus adult advisers.
"We're busy right now on
a code of conduct for all Al
bion teenagers. A lot of our
kids in trouble come from
good families. I think a per
son turns delinquent for one
reason he's just seeking at
tention . . . wants to see his
name in the newspaper."

So says Dr. Tibor Koeves,
vice president of the Institute
for Motivational Research, a
market research organization
"Cosmetics are tools of emo
tions. They help teen-agers
decide what they want to be
come and serve as an outlet
for this quest for identity.
Attitudes toward cosmetics
are an expression of a person's
entire attitude toward life,"
Dr. Koeves said at a forum
on teens' use' of cosmetics,
sponsored by Fashion Group
Inc.
Market Potential
The group, which includes
3,000 women executives in
the fashion industry, held the
forum to emphasize the enor
mous potential of the teen-age
market. In 1956, the teens
had an estimated income of
nine billion dollars. By 1965,

musical training in the school
for the past year were stu
dents from the intermediate
chorus, fifth and sixth gardes;
the upper chorus, seventh and
eighth grades; the advanced

Among the participating stu

Musical selections were var

bers, spirituals, rounds, fa
vorites from Broadway musi
cals, marching band numbers,
classic excerpts, and a popu

James Wallis acting as a vol

In the absence of the regu

her husband.
Mrs. John Huffman, presi
dent, gave a report from the
county welfare office on the
need for foster homes. Any
one interested in 'taking chil
dren into their home may con
tact her for further informa

"Let girls spend hours in
front of a mirror trying out
cosmetics," Dr. Koeves said.
"On these occasions, a teen
ager makes her own acquain
tance. Cosmetics are an exfen-!
sion of her own personality
or part of the girl she hopes
to become.
"Cosmetics also are a teen
ager's tool for discovering
where she belongs. Adoles
cents rebel against adult
standards, but never against
their own. They think that if
other girls in their crowd do
something or wear something,
it must be right," he said.
Belonging Not Enough
"But this need to belong is
not enough. A teen-ager must
be somebody . in the group,
must have distinction and su
periority. A girl with inside
information on new make-up
gains this needed respect,"
said Dr. Koeves.
But youngsters use make
up more sparingly than adults
think, he added.
"Girls are conservative be
cause boys want them to be
Mothers tell their sons, 'Don't
go out with girls who wear
too much make-up.' And the
boys don't."
An institute survey showed
that in the eighth grade, about
naif the girls wear lipstick.
In the ninth grade, most girls
paint'. By the next grade, the
youngsters start using eye
brow pencil, and half use mas
cara in the 11th grade. When
they're high
school seniors,
they get the works, Dr.
Koeves said.
Today's teen - agers, boys
and girls, prefer the whole
some type of girl to sirens,
he added.
"We showed them pictures
of the 1920's beauties, and
they rejected them. They want
a girl to look like a captain
of a swimming team. They
think she need not be beauti
ful, but she should be cute,"
he added.

Orchid Growing Not
Hard, Producer Says
Brains are not needed to
grow orchids, just patience,
Jack Frost, commercial orchid
grower of California and
southern Oregon, said Mon
day at the Roundtable meet
ing of the Jackson County
Chamber of Commerce. .
Frost spoke on raising or
chids as a profitable hobby
and illustrated his talk with
four orchid plants he had
grown from seed, a project
requiring an average of seven
to nine years.
Speaking on the growing
of cymbidium orchids, Frost
explained that orchids were
especially adaptable to the
southern Oregon climate. The
plants usually grow at eleva
tions between 2,500 and; 6,000
feet, like lots of fresh air,
cold nights, and need to be
damp but not wet.
Not Delicate
The speaker explained that
orchids are not the delicate,
tender flower that many peo
ple think they are. He empha
sized his point by roughly
fingering some of the cabbage
like petals of the blooms he
brought with him.
He said persons who plan
to grow orchids should talk
with someone who has raised
them, thus avoiding some of
the common errors. He added
that the plants should be
planted on rocks with a soil
mixture that allows the free
passage of air and has good
drainage. The soil will not re
main wet.
He added that the plants
thrive on temperatures as low
as 32 degrees when not in
bloom.
Frost mentioned that there
is an excellent market for the
flowers and said he hoped to
see a southern Oregon asso
ciation of orchid growers
formed in the future. He men
tioned that it is not possible
to grow too many of the flow
ers now.
Orchid Congress
He explained that the West
ern Orcnia congress win De
held in Portland next year.
Orchid raising as a hobby
may be sen paying or par
tially self-paying, the speaker

explained. Beginners should
purchase plants for S5 or $6,
he said, which would bloom
within several years before
experimenting with seeds.
Frost told the history of
some varieties and explained
how new varieties are ob
tained. Visitors are welcome at the
greenhouses operated by the
speaker on U.S. Highway 199,
approximately 11V& miles
southwest of Grants Pass.
The speaker was intro
duced by Robert Balch. Seven
