UPI Down here, where pelicans ramble 'single file along the beaches in flapping platoons and a man can take life lazy as long as his money lasts. there is gathered a singular tribute to American kitcherP monkeying If a geQt who delves ex pertly and elderly into en gines is proud to be called a grease-monkey, I submit that a housewife who brings some old-fashioned gifankee ingenu ity ana inventiveness 10 ner career should glory &i what she is a kitchen-monkey. Drop that rojgjng-pin, Myr--tie. The term is, too, a com pliment. Every yeaO!jpre is aem- bled here at Ellmor Village a group of ladies in a summit meeting of homemade know- how. They are the(50 winners in the national "Homemakeis Forum" contest, in which thousands of homemakers send in hints of how they malrp a hnncp a linmp Trip hints are time-saving, moSey saving (maybe ven face-sav- 4ng) practical and useful ideas and devices dreamed up in the home. Perhaps indicative that in genuity sprouts withvears of experimenting is tne act that 85 per cent of this year's crop of winners have been mar- ried 30 years or more. The oldest winner 74. One has been married 53 years, an other 46. 0 One of the neatOt tricks since Tom Sawyer got a few other kids to Ohitewieh a fence for him is the ear-ceil-ing-painting method ot Mrs E. D. Anderso of Portland, Ore. She simplvgattaches a broom handle to the handle of a roller brush and walks around, instead of ambling up and down a stepladder. Consider, alsoQ the ''well- heeled ladder" of Mrs? Clar ence' F. Aumann of Chicago. To keep ladder legs from slip- - ping or marring floors, she nails man-sized rubber heels to the botti of eafti leg. If your old heels are well run over, the .ladder will have a familiar, folksy look.O - Know how to keep the- de of your percolator from charring or bgjrning? Sug gests Mrs. Joseph M. Skura of Wilmington, Del.: Save the little metal spouts (Jrom salt boxes and simply snap one under thehandle. Devilishly cute, if it works.

THERE'S A GREYHOUND AGENT NEAR YOU G j v yr -- MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, JUNE 3, 19J8 The Family Council Editor's note: The Family Council consists of Judge, a psychiatrist, ehree clergymen, a newspaper editor, a wemen's editor an! tvo writers. Each article .s a summary ot a actual report. The Family Coiaci im not give advice; it merely reports with by responsible agencies ua Mrs. o T.D. Karen i too beautiful for her own good. ... Karen D. I could succeed as a model without half try ing. Mrs. T.D. My problem is probably different from that of most mothers of teen-ajc girls, but it is certainly Sr- ious! Q Karen iso 16 and entirely too beautcful for her own good. She has no girl friends because they are all jealous of her. The boys flock around her and confuse her so much that she doesn't know which she likes. She often comes home crying because some boy tried to get fresh with her. I want Karen to go to co left because I feel everyone should hfive a good education and I want her to meet nicer kinds of men. The problem is that she isn't interested in schoolwork. She says she wants to be a model. I am worried about what will hap pen if she gets into work that exposes her more to men. who might try to take advantage of her. , (Karon D. Some people think being beautiful i all a bed of roses, but believe me, it isn't. Even my teacher at school are jealous and nasty. They think I'm dumb, just be cause of my looks. I get aw ful marks at school. I prob ably couldn't get into college even if I tried Besides, if I went to a girl's college I would never have any friends. If I went to a co-ed school I wouldn't be able to concentrate on my work because I'd be bothered all the time. , If I went in for modeling could make good ' money without half "trying.-1 would have good times, and I would ot of people. Maybe would travel and meet im portant men like Ali Kahn or the Prince of Monaco. I don't mean hem, exactly, but men like that. My looks wouldn't be a handicap. ... Tha Council:.. Poor, poor Karen! She has a handicap, indeed. It is not her looks, however, but what is in her head. A second handicap is her mother. Mrs. T. D. is filled with misconceptions and has suc ceeded in planting them alj quite firmly in her daughter. We'll try straightening out a few of the facts: 1 Girls are not unfriendly toward Karen because of her beauty. They are unfriendly because Karen is unfriendly. Many exquisite girls are quite popular with women because they go out toward them -ith I car - alone"?

They offer something be sides a pretty face. 2 Boys don't get fresh vith Karen because of her beauty. They do it because he invites it.. In some way she shows them what she ex pects of them. Unfortunately, she feels she has nothing to offer but physical charms. 3 Teachers aren't nasty to Karen because of her beauty They may get nasty because it is exasperating to try to teach something to a blank pretty face, which reveals no interest and no effort at un derstanding. t Karen's chances of 'be coming a successful model in her present frame of mind are about as small ai her chances of getting into a top college. She needs to learn that she not only can't suc ceed "without half trying," but she is dooming herself to a pretty dismal life of mirror gazing and wild daydreaming. Mrs. T.D. had better snap ouf of her obsession about Karen's beauty and help her daughter understand that good looks are an asset in life only if they are accompanied by a strong interest in other things and people.

Job Opportunities For Summer 'Open' Washington (UPI) There are still "wide open" oppor tunities for summer jobs in ice cream and soda pop firms, gasoline stations and retort hotels and camps. But pros pects are slimmer in construc tion and factory work for stu dents seeking vacation jobs. Labor Secretary Jamea P. Mitchell outlined the situation in an open letter Monday to the four million high school and college students expected to seek vacation work this year. He said it will take "planning on our part and investigation "and a good deal of, resourcefulness if you are to get the job you want." 180,000 Gott Belli Taken from Warehouse Chicago (UPI)--The A. G.

The manufacturers, with an acknowledged recession advantage at the bargaining table, refused to extend con tracts past their expiration dates for continued negotia tion. The United Auto Work ers said it had no intention of increasing that advantage with a strike which would, in effect, give the companies a free shutdown period to re duce their inventories. Negotiations will continue. The companies pledged themselves to observe the standards of the expired con tracts except for the checkoff collection of union dues.
