She spoke of others down through the years, men tioning Susan B. Anthony, the American suffragette, and Emily Pankhurst of England, and Eleanor Roosevelt of our own time,- whose influence has become more and more recognized. Mrs. Rutter introduced two local women upon whom at tention is now centered with the coming general election Mrs. Marijane Duncan and Mrs. Eve Nye, both of whom are running for a seat in the Oregon legislature. 1 The Wednesday luncheon at the Jackson hotel pioneer room was supported by Med ford Business and Profession al Women's club as a part of National Business Women's week program. Miss Voda Brower, this year's "Beep of the Week," was honored at the luncheon. Another hon ored guest was Mrs. Harriet Watson, the club's 1956 "Beep." . The luncheon was attended by. members from many of Medford's business, profes sional, and women's service clubs, including Altrusa, Zon ta, . Nurses' Association, Na tional Secretaries Association, League of Women Voters, American Legion Auxiliary, Crate r Lions' Auxiliary, Toastmistress,. and. Christian Business and Professional Women's club. Miss Brower, secretary to O. A. Eden of California Oregon Power com pany, was also honored by a large group of women em ployees of that firm who at tended the luncheon. Largest Group ! The National Federation of Businessand Professional Women is the largest organ ized group in the world de voted entirely to the affairs of business and professional women, with state federations in all 48 states, in Alaska, Ha waii, Puerto Rico and the Dis trict of Columbia. Any women employed for compensation in industry, business or in the professions, and acceptable to the local group, is eligible for member ship. Ib June, 1958, the mem bership stood at 174,097 mem bers in 3,355 clubs. Although the national federation was established in St. Louis, Mo., in 1919, this is the 30th year in which a business women's week has been observed. Promotion of the interests of business and professional women is the main-' objective of the club. It works to ele vate standards for women through education, industrial and vocational activity pro grams. The BPWC is the lead er in securing legislation in the interests of women. The Medford club maintains a re volving fund from which it makes loans to women for training or education to pro mote themselves in their own field, ' or seek better-paying new ones. A. statement issued by the national office, located in Washington, D.C., says: "We are wage earners and . almost 90 per cent of our members inn wiihi INCORRECT SLEEPING o HURTS Sealy sleep you... keeps you ...at your level best fc h Foam Rubber Mattress and Matching Foundation $17?

We know that as employed wom en we are a basic part of the economic " structure of our nation. We also know that we have not been given credit for. our contributions to the business and professional world,, nor are .we accorded adequate voice where poli cies are analyzed and deci sions made. As citizens we should not be denied equal opportunities, nor should we be discriminated against le gally. There are over 1,000 discriminatory laws against women existing today. It is amazing how often new dis criminations are inserted into legislative bills." - The BPWC offers a bal anced action program in five particular fields: Career ad vancement, health and safety, international relations, na tional security, ad public af fairs. These five fields are implemented and. their plans executed by a committee on legislation, . when legislative measures are necessary. Deadline Nearing On Contest Junction City-District finals in the "Make It Yourself With Wool" home sewing con test are slated in 17 contest areas throughout the state from mid-October to the end of the month, according to Mrs. Averill Hansen, Route 1, Junction City, Oregon di rector of the nationwide $45, 000 contest. But even with' nearing deadlines, young seamstresses between the ages of 13 and 22 have time to receive their official entry blanks if they contact Mrs. Hansen directly. "There is hardly time to follow the usual procedure of first sending the entry form to the national contest head quarters in New York and awaiting receipt of the offi cial form," Mrs. Hansen ex plained.- "So to save time we have made up duplicate forms which we can fush to the girls within a day's time." ' ; If number of entries al ready received are an indica tion, more girls are sewing and selecting woolen fabrics than ever before, Mrs. Hansen added. This year Oregon has a record number of contest entries for the contest that is in its 12th year. ; Young seamstresses will compete on three levels - for prizes including scholarships, sewing machines, and trips to Europe for the top winners. First step , in the national ''fashion show-off," Mrs. Han sen said, is the district con test. Winners selected in local judgings and style reviews will model their champion ship ensembles at the state wide contest and style show at Meier and Frank company, Portland, on November 15. Final step in the contest will be in January in Portland when winners from 19 states take part in the final "show off." The final contest and fashion show will be a major feature of the national con vention of the Wool Growers' association. Contestants in the "Make It Yourself With Wool" con test may enter three divisions: Junior, for girls 14 through 17; Senior, for girls 18 through 22; and Sub-Deb, for girls 13 through 16. Girls jn the Junior and Senior divi sions may enter a suit, coat, dress, or ensemble made of wool. Girls in the Sub-Deb division which is scheduled on the district level only may make a wool skirt, jumper, or skirt and weskit.

New York - (DPD - W h i 1 e . they're helping to bring home the bacon, what are the na tion's 13.2 million working wives doing to their husbands and themselves? Are the husbands becoming less man ly and the wives less woman ly? Dr. Henry David, execu tive director of the National Manpower council, says these questions are getting increas ing attention from social sci entists. At the present, he said, there is no clear-cut evidence the hubby of a working wife damages his he-man ego by putting on an apron and help ing with household chores. Or that his wife necessarily hurts her femininity. Rather than being offended by the pay-check the little woman brings home, the hub by of a working wife usually greets it with open palms, Dr. David indicated. Need Not Hurt Marriage This is so, he said, because the earnings of most working wives help the family to achieve a better standard of living. . The expert from the Grad uate School of Business at Columbia university also said there isn't any conclusive proof working makes a wom an manly or less wifely. "When a wife works," he said, "the marriage needn't suffer if the man and. wife master the art of meshing their careers without making a mess of homelife." btatistically there is no : proof working wives are con- j tributing to marital upset. As a matter of fact, the coritrary j appears to be the case, accord-: ing to Dr. David. He noted a recent Manpow er council conference cleared the air about another charge frequently places at the feet of working wives who also are mothers.

GOLD STRIKES with VULCA-NEES have proven themselves, year after year, to' give more wear more of every thing for the money. And why not? They're built better, of bet ter denim for better wear. MIOFOR i dren's bureau, told conferees: No study has estab lished a casual relation be tween "maternal employment and either juvenile delinquen cy or the maladjustment of children." , A working mother herself, Mrs. Oettinger also had this to say about the husbands of employed wives: "The father who takes the laundry to the Laundromat, or dries the dishes in the eve ning, or puts' the baby to bed . . . is no longer a sissy. He is just a good father and a de cent partner doing his share. "The greater partnership may often represent an asset for children since few will deny they need fathering as well as mothering." Square Dancing Class Planned A beginners class for square dancers will start Monday, October 13,. at the Upper Ap plegate Grange hall. The course will continue for 12 weeks, and anyone 16 years old or more is invited to join the class. Classes will start at 8 p.m. and end at 10 p.m. The course is being . sponsored by the Grange and Byron (Buzz) Dib ble will be the instructor.
