Seniors
To Exhibit
Hobby Work
Oil paintings and wood
carvings made in classes at
the Senior Activity center will
be exhibited in the window of
Frake and Smith Paint store,
315 East Main street, Friday,
December 26.
All the students in these
two classes are over 50 years
of age and have never painted
or done wood carving before
October 13, when the classes
started. None have had more
than the eight lessons given in
their hobby since the center
opened, but all express en
thusiasm in their creative
work and the social, friendly
atmosphere of the class it
self, it is reported.
All plan to continue the
classwork.
Miss Margaret Ossenbrugge,
artist, who is the volunteer
teacher in oil painting, invites
anyone over 50 to join the
class, which meets every Tues
day afternoon from 1 to 3
pjn. "This exhibit will show
horn much talent is latent
in many people who have no
chance to paint in their early
life but who would like to
try. No one is ever too old
to learn to paint."
' Glenn Van Wickle, veteran
from Camp White Hobby
shop who taught his class to
carve the figures in a nativity
scene, states that since wood
carving is hard work and
takes strong hands he plans
to add sculpture in clay in
order that more people can
participate in his class. Jt
meets every Wednesday from
1 to 3 p.m.
The dancing class, which
meets Thursday mornings,
will not meet again until Jan
uary 8.
On Monday afternoon, Jan
uary 5, the first "arm chair
travel show will be held from
1 to 3 pjn. Dr. Frank Rob
erts Sr. will show colored
slides of Europe, where he
has traveled - extensively.
Black-out curtains are beng
arranged for the show by
.John Gribble and Clarence
Evans.

Field of Law
Said Good One
For Brainy Gal
United Press International
San Francisco-ffJPB-The city's
only woman superior judge
says opportunities for brainy
gals in the field of law are
improving every day. -
Judge Theresa Meikle said
there were only 11 woman
lawyers in the San Francisco
Bay area in 1911 when she
was graduated from the Uni
versity of California. .Today
there are 275, and the number
is increasing.
Men lawyers seem to like
their female counterparts, she
said.
"What progress women law
yers have made has been with
the help of men attorneys,'
she said. "In all my years of
practicing and on the bench,
men have showed me the
greatest deference and chiv
alry." The jurist, 62, has held her
$18,000-a-year position since
first elected in 1942. In for
mer years, most women attor
neys specialized in domestic
relations and divorce cases,
she said. Now they are branch
ing out into such fields as
labor and tax law.
"But opportunities for wom
en criminal lawyers still are
limited," she said "although
there was one in Los Angeles
who was doing well before
she got married.
Judge Meikle Is not mar
ried herself, but she doesn't
rule out marriage for women
barristers.
"There are at least 15 hus-
band-and-wife lawyer teams
in San Francisco," she said.
"The wife usually does the
briefs or research, while the
husband does the trial work.'
Judge Meikle urged women
attorneys "not to dress man-
nishly, but always act as a
courtly woman" and advised
against adopting a ."woman
vs. man" attitude in court.
Fledgling women lawyers
don't always make as much
money as men. "But they will
when they show they are
worth it," he said.
Trouble-Saver
New York-flJPB-To save time

How to Enjoy
Your Own Party
Westfield, Mass.-(UPD-En joy
ing your own party is as much
an art as seeing that guests
have fun, says Miss Catherine
L. O'Brien.
As president of a firm which
relies on parties for sales
(Stanley Home Products, Inc.),
she has found these tips
helpful:
So you won't be upset by
unexpected guests or those
who failed to R.S.V.P .-allow
about 10 per cent leeway in
food. Tell in your invitation
when you expect guests to ar
rive and leave. They can plan
on baby sitters, and you can
plan ample refreshments.
Arrange the party schedule
beforehand so you know ex
actly what to do, then relax.
Don't clean house the day
of the party. Frantic last
minute cleaning only leaves
you tired and grouchy.
Don't introduce every new
comer after the first few per
sons have arrixed. Leave that
to the guests.
Invite a congenial group,
but don't omit someone be
cause a few guests don't get
along with him. A comedian
once said there should be
someone at a party that every
body hates, just to keep things
interesting.

When sewing was-and-wear
cotton fabrics, adjust correct

America Debutante Crazy
Says Chairman of Dance
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
iew i orKwnf America is
becoming debutante crazy,
says one woman who helps
ster f coming out" parties for
teenage socialites.
"Deb debuts are now part
of the holiday tradition in al
most every city of any size,"
said Beatrice Joyce, executive
chairman of the international
Debutante ball. She believes
the deb business is thriving
because the debut remains
one strong symbol of gracious
living; every father wants his
daughter on a social pedestal
above the crowd; and every
mother wants her daughter
meeting the right people.
Last Fling of Season
"And after all," she said,
"when you're 18 it's the time
to have fun . . . when you're
old, all you have to look back
on is memories."
Miss Joyce directs a party,
set for December 30 this year
at the Hotel Astor, which is
is one of the last flings of
the season for the debs. The
fall season begins with
Thanksgiving, when the girls
come home for the first long
college vaction, and reaches
its peak during the Christmas
and New Year's holidays.
Debuts fall in two general
types, she said. There are the
private debuts in which pop
foots the whole bill, and the
mass debut in which as many
as 50 or 75 debs will bow.
Usually the big parties are
benefits for some charity; pro
fits from the International
Deb Ball, for instance, will go
to the Kidney Disease Founda
tion of New York.
18 Countries Represented
Debs planning to bow at
this party include the daugh
ters of Gen. Curtis LeMay,
vice chief of staff of the Air
Force; Sir Pierson Dixon, am-

In all, 18 countries will be
represented.
, The initial cost to each deb
is the S35 ticket which in
cludes dinner and gratuities;
other party tickets may cost
double that; but the ticket
price is just the starter. There
are flowers and photographs
and party clothes. In addition,
the girl's parents take tables,
footing the dinner tab for
themselves and friends. Miss
Joyce said $5,000 can cover
the cost of a debut, and some
fathers spend as much as $25,-000.
Living Cost Boost
Darkens Picture
Washington - (UPD - An in
crease in the cost of living to
day darkened an otherwise
bright picture of the Ameri
can economy.
The Labor Department re
ported Tuesday that the cost
of living, spurred by rising
automobile prices, went up
one-fifth of one per cent in
November to equal the all
time high of last July.
At the same time, the Com
merce Department reported
the nation's economy posted
heavy gains in the last, three
months of 1958 with such
major indicators as income,
employment and retail sales
showing improvement.
Another encouraging note
was a Securities & Exchange
Commission report that in
dividual savings in the third
quarter of the year totaling
$5,200,000,000, up $300 mil
lions from the same period of
1957.

ley Hooks just couldn't con
trol his car and his turkey at
the same time.
Hooks went to the store on
Tuesday and bought a live
gobbler for Christmas.
On the return trip, the tur
key began flopping about in
the car. Hooks grabbed for it
with both hands. -
The car ran down an em
bankment. Hooks got a bump on the
head, the car got a lot of
bumps and the turkey met its
end a little sooner than had
been scheduled, due to injur-ies.
