MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. Tuesday, July 7, 1959 AAature Women ; Find Insurance Good As Career United Press International Evanston, 111. 1UPD - Mature women can find a career and lifetime security in a field ..dominated by men insurance r counseling. So says Orrin M. Neiburger -president of the Old. Equity. Life Insurance Co. . Z "There are many special ad vantages for well-informed - women in insurance," he said. "A qualified agent sets her j own hours and works from -her own home. Most insur : ance is sold for protection of 5 women and ' children - and ionly a woman knows how im "portant this can be." Few women have entered .the insurance field because, 'Neiburger said, "financial matters once were considered ; entirely man's province. But "times have changed. The mod t ern hosewife plays an import- ant role in setting up the fam ily budget. Decisions on buy ing insurance today are al most always family decisions, :-and a woman's cousel Is re spected." ' ' Neiburger believes the field I is ideal for women whose chil dren are grown and for the '.widow who wants to be self -supporting but remain at : home to care for school-age -children. Most women who sell insur ance get into the business ax ; partners to husbands, Nei- Tburger said. "But there's no reason why : any woman with a pleasing personality and a good supply of common sense can't break into the field. There are ex cellent training programs for applicants with no -experience," he added.

C. - A new food standard for peanut but ter has been proposed by the Food and Drug Administra tion. - FDA said a survey of pro ducts labeled "peanut butter" shows the amount of peanuts used in some brands has been reduced as much as 20 per cent by substitution of cheap er vegetable oils or hydro- genated oils for more expen sive peanuts and peanut oil. The practice tends to mislead and confuse the consumer and would be corrected by a stand ard setting minimum require ments which meet consumer expectancy, the agency added. Under FDA's proposal, pea nut butter would consist of at least 95 per cent by weight of the food made by grinding shelled, roasted, and blanched peanuts. No more than 5 per cent of the product would, be provided by one or more op tional ingredients, including salt, sugar, dextrose, honey, or hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated peanut oil. The proposed standard would re quire a listing of optional in gredients on the label by their common names. Written comments are in vited on today's proposed standard and must be received within 30 days of its publica tion in the Federal Register. 4 - , Club Names Committees : Eagle Point-The program for the coming year was out lined and discussed at the last meeting of Eagle Point Gar den club.

UNBELIEVABLE 'BARGAINS STORE WE!! Don Loper To Design For Western United Press International Looks like a TV western is gunning for a places on the best-dressed list. Hollywood designer Don Loper will do the costumes for Bat Master son next season. As played by Gene Barry, Bat Masterson is a dandy clad in black suit, brocade vest, and black derby, carrying a gold-headed walk ing stick. He romances beau tiful, elegant women - who will ' become more elegant when Loper gets through with them. The d signer dresses such stars as Marlene Die trich, Anita Ekberg, Ginger Rogers and Suzy Parker. He also designs TV clothes for Lucille Ball, Barbara Hale and Shirley Temple. Late-day dresses have a new look this summer-they're wid er at the top. So say fashion analysts for Women's Wear Daily, a trade publication. A popular way of. achieving this look is with a cape collar. On some dresses, the collars com pletely cover the shoulders. Top print color for summer, 59: black and white. The com bination is shown in every type of motif from florals, checks and stripes to polka dots and abstracts. Even white swiss organdies have black embroidery, arid eyelet -em broidered cottons stick to the black-and-white scheme with an underlay. . Women who think the best mink comes in small jackets will have a field day next fall, predict designers for Coop-chik-Forrest. The furrier be lieves it will be the season for the 22-inch demi-jacket, which ends just below, the waistline. The length was de termined after a study of the suit market to be sure that the jackets will cover the lat est styles. . ; For the man in a hurry-a summer sport shirt that zips instead of buttons. The zipper is hidden in the front. Cuffs are turned-up, and the conti nental collar is open. It comes in novelty print cotton. . All lengths and types of stockings will make the grade on the campus. There are crew socks, tights, and a num her of below and above-the-knee lengths. Some tights have - their own panties in stretch nylon yarn. A waffle knit stocking in stretch nylon stays up by itself by means of an elasticized top. Excellent Casserole Makes Whole Meal Here's an excellent cas serole that makes a whole meal, with a green salad as an accompaniment. Cook, a pound of noodles or spaghetti in boiling salted water. Mean while, brown a pound of ground beef and a half pound of sausage (or all beef).

Use of State School Funds Topic of Convention Talk St. Louis The growing tendency of state governments to assume a larger share of financial responsibility for the cost of public school educa tion calls up for re-examination some fundamental princi ples, about how state funds are to be used, delegates of the annual National Educa tion association convention were told. Dr. Erick L. Lindman, chairman of the department of education at George Pea- body college, Nashville, Tenn., pointed out that state govern ments today have a 40 per cent share in public school budgets. In 1930 their share was but 17 per cent, the trend is still upward, Dr. Lindman said. As an example of the prob lem Dr. Lindman asks: Should state tax revenues be used only in an effort to provide an adequate . minimum pro gram for all children in the state, or should some of the money be used in certain com munities in the pursuit of educational excellence? He had no ready answer, but suggested that the ques tion should be reviewed in the light of conditions as they now exist in each state. Funds Earmarked Also troublesome, according to Dr. Lindman, is whether state funds should be ear marked to establish local com pliance with state established salary scales and pupil-teacher ratios. This makes sense, he said, if the state's goal is to enforce an adequate minimum program. But if the goal is to facilitate local improvements and innovations in the school systems, such controls cannot be justified, he believes Dr. Lindman asked also whether state funds should be so distributed among locali ties as to "reward" with rela tively larger allocations those communities which are. mak ing the greatest effort to help themselves educationally. He indicated he was inclined to favor the reward - for - effort principle. Recent efforts to . separate responsibility for educational finance and for instructional planning have not made the solutions to these problems any easier, Dr. Lindman said. The quality of instruction depends on financial policy at each level of educational gov ernment, he pointed out. Analyze Cost ' When a school board, con sidering the relative merits of "Bonus for Cash!" Extra 5 Duint On All Sale Merchandise, Paid for in Cash or Check.

Similarly, when a state decides for what purposes its funds are to .be allocated among communities, it is mak ing a financial policy decision which bears on quality of in struction, he added. The task confronting educa tors in the years immediately ahead, Dr. Lindman said, is to study and analyze the cost quality relationship in educa tion! "We must be able to show the American people," he said, "the' component parts of excellent education and the cost of each component. Re sults of these analyses must be presented to state legisla tive bodies so that state gov ernments, with their 40 per cent share in school costs, can see their opportunity to pur chase at a fair price the kind of high quality education that our nation needs."
